One of the best decisions we’ve made

We couldn’t be more delighted with the our wedding photos and the excellent service provided by Mr. Cesar Portes. He managed to capture every moment and make it look so magical as if it was straight out of a fairytale book I honestly don’t know how he’s done that in central London but my photos have the nature element combined with the city. So beautiful and artistic.

Not only he is an amazing photographer but he is so kind and genuine, it’s been an absolute pleasure.

I strongly recommend!!!!

Cesar has a great eye for detail and capturing special moments in his lens. My husband and I, felt completely at ease in his directions. We truly believe we couldn't have picked a better professional to photograph our dreamy day. We earnestly would recommend Cesar to any family or friends inquiring about a excellent wedding photographer. If you want quality in your wedding photos, booking Cesar Portes is exactly what you want.

AMAZING experienced and talented photographer!

We were so excited that Cesaer was available for our wedding date because we did a lot of research on amazing photographers and he came very highly recommended in addition to looking at his amazing portfolio his work is stunning. Throughout the entire process he was very responsive and easy going. On the day of the wedding he was very prompt and on time, didn't mind that we were running a little behind he didn't rush us or stress us out. He took photographers that you can tell the angles and background would be stunning, was fun to work with and he didn't mind getting dirty( our wedding was on the beach). He was the type of photographer that got every good and important shot, but he wasn't in the way of the guests, which i love. It's been one week since our wedding and we got one photograph which is so amazing beautiful we cannot wait to see the rest. I would highly highly recommend him!!!!

Destination Wedding Photographer

As the father of the bride, who held a destination wedding, I can not say enough about the qualities and photographic talent this young man possesses. Not only was Cesar willing to travel, but I observed first hand his sensitive interaction with the bride and groom to capture each wedding moment as they had envisioned and could have only dreamed.

Viewing the wedding photos has brought such emotion and joy to our family members and attendees. This can only be attributed to Cesar's abilities to record this monumental event. I highly recommend Cesar when seeking one to capture life's most treasured moments.

Our Dream Wedding Photographer

We knew we found our dream wedding photographer the minute we laid eyes on Cesar Portes’ beautiful work. About a year prior to our wedding, we traveled to Punta Cana just to meet him and secure our wedding venue and date based on his availability. We had our mind set on an October wedding, but because he was unavailable, we chose the day my husband and me met, November 10th, because we were convinced that nobody could capture all the details we had in mind for our wedding the way Cesar could and we were right.

We were honored to have Cesar join us throughout our wedding weekend, where he captured timeless treasures of our welcome party and wedding. Every single picture that he took brings us right by the joyful and unforgettable moments we felt and experienced. From the invitations, the décor, the food, entertainment to the priceless expressions of family and friends, candid moments and fairytale photos of the bride and groom, all of Cesar’s photos tell a story.

Cesar’s sharp eye, attention to every detail, ability to make you feel relaxed, his professionalism and poise are just some of the many reasons that make him so much more than a photographer. He’s truly an artist.

If you’re getting married in Punta Cana or anywhere in the world, you know you’ve made the best decision when you book Cesar Portes. Weddings go by so fast and they are truly a once-in-lifetime experience, but with Cesar as your photographer, you’ll be able to relive every minute and special detail of your big day.

Amazing Photographer!

Cesar was absolutely amazing to work with! Cesar came to St Maarten for our destination wedding in October of 2019. We did a day before shoot and he was with us all day on the day of the wedding. Within the first few minutes of meeting Cesar, he made us feel at ease.

Our wedding was in the morning and the sunlight, heat and rush in timing made things challenging. Cesar was patient, flexible and managed to get the most amazing photos of us, our family and friends.

When working with him, you can tell how passionate he is about his work. He gets so excited about your photos and he manages to capture all of the special moments. He is so talented and has such a wonderful personality. We are so thrilled with our photos and with choosing him to be our photographer. My friends and family could not say enough positive things about him as a person and his work as a photographer.

I cannot thank Cesar enough for traveling and capturing our special day!

We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
