We had our wedding in Cancun...2 full days of multiple Indian events which meant lots of color, chaos, and love...and Ruben and his team captured every bit of it! From the moment we met him, it was super clear that he is PASSIONATE about what he does. He doesn't just show u with a camera...he should up with energy, ideas, and extreme dedication. He went above and beyond in every way (coming early, willing to add on hours at the end, getting the perfect shots, and saying yes to all of our requests without ever skipping a beat). Ruben absolutely delivered and even gave us surprises along the way. He did things most photographers wouldn't even think of - all with a smile and great vibes. If you're looking for someone who will go the extra mile, blend in like family (including breaking it down on the dance floor with you!), and leave you with stunning photos and memories, Ruben and his team are it. We still keep going through our pictures and watching our videos over and over to relive those memories. We couldn't be happier!
We didn't want to add pictures of our friends and family to the review, but those are absolutely some of our favorite pictures we received. Thank you Ruben for capturing some of the most special and meaningful moments without knowing it. We will hold onto those forever.

Ruben's work is magical. Choosing a good photographer is a game changer for your wedding day and Ruben is absolutely one of them. He is professional and the quality of his photos really gave us the assurance and worry free experience that the photography aspect of our wedding will be well taken care of. The day of the wedding is over now, but the memories and moments will stay forever because of Ruben.

I honestly don’t know if there is anyone more perfect to be a wedding photographer than Ruben. It’s not just that he’s a great photographer who foresees where the best light and best angles will make a beautiful photo, it’s that he genuinely understands what a wedding day means for those who are going through it and will look back on these pictures and videos for the rest of their lives together. Look, it’s not cheap, sure, nothing about weddings are (as I found out) but once we got the videos and pictures there was no price too high for the most perfectly presented memories, that we now get to relive every time we watch/look at them. He didn’t just capture the moments, he captured the MAGIC that was in the air that night because as cliche as it sounds, he actually loves love and is truly committed to portraying it in his work. What’s weirder is he was so observant that
1-) he naturally knew what to say to each of us to get us to feel the most confident and at ease and our individual photo sessions reflect exactly who we are (and we’re very different in a sense so it’s pretty special he understood that)
2-) we didn’t even have to tell him what songs to put in the recap 4 minute video and were so surprised when we got it cause it was EXACTLY what we wanted and proves he was attuned and paid attention to our taste and what he delivered reflected that and made us tear up every time we watch it.
In short, hiring him to capture the most special night of our lives was the second best decision we made, after deciding to get married to each other:) We now have nothing less than the most incredible ART with our love all over it to cherish that time forever. Thank you Ruben! it takes a special person to celebrate other people’s love so genuinely

Ruben was the best photographer we have ever had and captured every special moment from our rehearsal dinner/wedding. Can’t recommend Ruben enough, not only are the pictures amazing but he’s a great person. Highly recommended using his services for your wedding.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Ruben ! From the moment he arrived, his energy was absolutely infectious — he brought such a positive, uplifting vibe to our entire wedding day. Not only did he make us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, but our guests also felt at ease and genuinely enjoyed interacting with him.

What truly sets him apart is his passion. You can see the creativity at work in real time — it’s amazing to watch him dream up ideas on the spot, then collaborate with you to bring them to life so naturally. His style felt like a beautiful, live documentary of our wedding day, capturing the real emotions, laughter, and special moments as they happened. Every time we watch the video, we’re transported right back to that day. It has this stunning, cinematic inspired feel that we absolutely love.

Beyond his talent, he's just a genuinely kind and warm person with a great heart. His presence elevated the day in every way, and we’re so grateful he was a part of it.

We would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a photographer or videographer who not only delivers incredible work, but also becomes an unforgettable part of your special day!

We are incredibly grateful to Ruben and his amazing team! From the very beginning, we knew we wanted a photographer who wasn’t just talented, but also a true creative partner—someone who could authentically capture us and the energy of our day. Ruben did exactly that and so much more.

Not only did he bring a unique artistic vision to every shot, but he also made the entire experience feel seamless and enjoyable. He and his team were flexible, communicative, and genuinely thoughtful throughout the entire process. Whether it was working around last-minute changes or making us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, Ruben showed up with professionalism and heart every step of the way.

Thank you, Ruben, for capturing moments we’ll treasure forever—you exceeded all expectations.

The BEST photographer in Cancun.  Ruben and his team did an amazing job capturing my husband and I’s special day. On our wedding day I felt so relaxed knowing that Ruben’s team would capture each moment while we got to truly live in the present and celebrate with our closest loved ones. Alex is a photographer who works along side Ruben and brings the same energy (even getting on the dance floor with you to capture the perfect shot of those dance moves ). He brings the same skill set to the team, hiring him as a second shooter is a great choice! We can’t stop looking through our pictures and let’s talk about that VIDEO!!! Seriously EPIC! This is something we will cherish forever - if you’re on the fence about adding the video, DO IT!!

We also added a “pre-wedding” shoot at sunrise with Ruben. He was so accommodating and it felt like I was able to get one last date in with my husband before officially becoming husband and wife.

If you are considering booking Ruben I 10/10 recommend, you won’t regret it. He will bring the vibes, good energy, and awesome candid skill set.

We honestly could not have asked for better photographers and videographers for our wedding! They were so incredibly nice, super professional, and absolutely hilarious — they made the whole experience even more fun. The quality of the photos is just chef’s kiss — absolutely perfect. The best part? They somehow captured every single special moment without ever being in the way. Seriously, it felt like ninjas were taking our photos because we never even noticed them, but they got EVERYTHING. We are so, so happy we chose them and would recommend them a million times over and would give more stars if possible!!

Ruben was an absolute pleasure to work with - he helped photograph my engagement in Bacalar.

He was always available to help, very professional, and gave many great suggestions throughout the planning process. Not only that, but he was incredibly friendly as well. And the photos came out beautifully.

I would highly recommend working with him if you’re looking for someone to shoot your engagement or wedding!

Ruben is not just an exceptional photographer—he is an extraordinary human being. Throughout our wedding journey, he wasn't just a vendor; he became a true friend. From our engagement shoot to our pre-wedding events and finally our wedding day, Ruben captured every moment with artistry, intention, and heart.

What sets him apart is his deep understanding of both his craft and his couples. He doesn’t just take photos—he tells a story, effortlessly weaving together the landscape, the lighting, and the emotions of the moment to create images that are nothing short of breathtaking. More than that, he made my husband and me feel completely at ease in front of the camera, turning what could have been a nerve-wracking experience into something joyful and natural.

We are absolutely in love with our wedding photos, but even more than that, we are grateful to have gained a friend in Ruben. If you're searching for a photographer in Quintana Roo or Yucatán, look no further. Working with Ruben is not just a decision you’ll be happy with—it will elevate your wedding experience. We cannot recommend him highly (or thank him) enough!
