One of the best!
We worked with Efrain for our engagement photos and wedding and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We were nervous that we weren’t going to be photogenic enough or that we wouldn’t know how to pose, but he was so helpful with that. All of the pictures turned out absolutely amazing, it made it so hard to pick which ones went into our album. We got an album as part of our package and it was so high quality, way more than I was expecting. These photos are something I know we’ll be looking back on for a lifetime and we are so thankful to Efrain for that!

10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had the most incredible experience with Efrain for our vow renewal in Puerto Rico. From the very beginning, he was professional, communicative, and truly invested in making our day as special as it could be!
During the shoot, he made us feel completely comfortable and captured us so naturally—nothing felt forced or awkward. He had an amazing eye for lighting, scenery, and little in-between moments that we’ll treasure forever. The way he incorporated the beauty of Puerto Rico into our photos was just stunning.
When we received our gallery, we were absolutely blown away. It’s clear, Efrain is very talented, but genuinely passionate about what he does.
If you’re looking for someone who will capture your special moments, we can’t recommend him enough. We will cherish these photos for a lifetime!

We had an amazing experience working with Efrain Ruiz as our wedding photographer. From the very beginning, he was more than professional, attentive to every detail, respectful, punctual, and very organized.
He truly understood our vision for the photos and exceeded our expectations, going beyond anything we could have imagined. He also made us feel very comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process, which made a huge difference for us.
Like we told Efrain on our wedding day, “all or nothing at all,” just like Frank Sinatra said, and he absolutely delivered!
The presentation when delivering the album, canvas, prints, and digital gallery… honestly, no words!
He will not only be our wedding photographer, but also our photographer for many future events. Without a doubt, Efrain Ruiz Photography is the one you should hire for your event.

Outstanding Professionalism and Beautiful Results
We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. His communication was outstanding, he was incredibly professional, and he truly adapted to us. He went above and beyond to work around our busy work schedules, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. During our sessions, he let us flow and be ourselves while providing just the right amount of guidance, which made everything feel natural and fun. The quality of his work is exceptional, and his fees are more than fair for the level of talent and care he brings. Most importantly, he showed genuine respect, care, and understanding for us as a same-sex couple, which meant the world to us. We felt completely seen, comfortable, and celebrated every step of the way. We already can’t wait to plan an anniversary party and have him join us in another adventure. Highly recommend.
