We adore Javier!

Where do I even begin? Javier is one of the kindest, most welcoming, sensitive, and sweet people I have ever met. Just from our communication back-and-forth leading up to the wedding alone, we knew we had made the right choice for our wedding photographer/videographer. However, upon meeting in person, we were that much more convinced that not only had we made the right choice with Javier, but we also had found someone that we could truly connect with, were excited to celebrate with, and were looking forward to being friends with in the future!

Kicking the wedding weekend off, Javier met us at our rehearsal dinner/welcome party to take photos of the event and we had SO MUCH fun! He and his team really do feel like lifetime friends that you are excited to see and spend time with, and the photos themselves were the cherry on top of the entire night. The next day, Javier and his team met us at Tago Hotel where we took getting ready photos. There were so many silly, sweet, and special moments that we all shared together throughout the photos being taken, and I still laugh each time I'm reminded of one of those moments....like, when Javier let me borrow his sunglasses on the beach because the sun was too bright for my eyes and I was literally crying...or when my husband-to-be entered our hotel room while we were taking bridal getting ready photos and Javier made everyone aware that THE GROOM IS IN THE ROOM (not knowing yet that it was totally fine with me).

The wedding day itself was absolutely amazing and we almost didn't even realize that photos and videos were being taken! We had expressed to Javier prior to the wedding that we really wanted a candid, photojournalistic style - catching all of our guests in laugh, tears, hugs, dancing, etc to really reflect the experience and emotions of that day. When I tell you that Javier and his team delivered - I can't express enough how PERFECT everything came out. With every photo we scroll past, we either laugh or cry just because you can truly feel the emotions of that day, just like we had asked.

And the video - oh the video! I had no idea what to expect, but Javier went above and beyond. Not only is every single sweet moment captured - from getting ready to dancing the night away - but our full ceremony is included as well. I never mentioned this to anyone, but I almost felt like I barely any memory of the actual ceremony (probably due to nerves) and I am so grateful that I can now watch it over and over again. Javier really did make this entire experience so incredibly meaningful to my husband, our families, friends, and I and we cannot thank him enough.

Best photographer ever!

I had a destination wedding at The Fives Beach hotel in Playa del Carmen, MX and I could not have asked for a better photographer! Javier is very detailed, creative, and so kind. I have never liked being in front of a camera but he definitely makes you feel so comfortable! My husband and I are in love with all of our wedding photos and video!! We have gotten so many compliments from family and friends as well. Javier and his team do amazing work and really captured the sweetest moments on our special day.

My love story unraveled

We couldn’t be more grateful to our incredible photographer/videographer Jacob for capturing every special moment of our wedding day so beautifully. From getting ready in the morning, to the emotional walk down the aisle at the church, the laughter during cocktail hour, and the joy filled celebration at our venue they were there for it all. Every photo and video is filled with emotion, detail, and love. Thanks to them, we’ll be able to relive our favorite day forever.

Jahlcobs team now feels like family

My husband and I had a destination wedding in Barbados in May 2024. Javier (Jahlcob) and his team were recommended by our awesome wedding planner/coordinator and WOW…what a blessing he was. He met with us almost a year before the wedding and he was well prepared with ideas from his experiences but also gave us the space to tell him our vision and our ideas.

The whole team of 3 traveled to our destination and beautifully captured our 3 day wedding event which included a welcome party, wedding day and post wedding catamaran. Their passion truly shows in their work and from day 1 they were flexible to any changes, on time, professional and so extremely friendly.

We would highly recommend Jahlcob to anyone considering him and just know that you will end with a new friend that feels like family!

Perfectly Captured Moments – Javier and His Team Were Exceptional!

We cannot recommend Javier and his team enough! From start to finish, they were absolutely incredible. Javier is an incredibly talented photographer, and the photos he captured are absolutely stunning—each one beautifully telling the story of our special day. We are in love with the gorgeous photos, but not just us, so are our friends and family. Not only did he perfectly capture every moment, but he also made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process.

When it came to the video team, the footage was just as amazing! They really took the time to understand our vision, and the final product exceeded our expectations. We had a few specific requests for adjustments, and Javier handled them with professionalism and patience. Javier made sure that we got exactly what we wanted and he delivered the final product promptly and we were beyond thrilled.

If you're looking for a photographer and video team who are not only talented but also incredibly responsive and attentive to your needs, look no further than Javier and his team. We are so grateful for their work and will cherish these memories forever!

Magical Experience

If you’re looking for an amazing photographer look no further! Javier was amazing and made everyone feel so comfortable with being in front of the camera. He was accommodating with the poses as I was pregnant during the ceremony and even gifted us a handmade rattle for our baby girl to have. The attention to detail and giving us a sense of familiarity made the whole experience worthwhile. Our picture album was amazing and blew us away. We love looking at the video and pictures from our magical day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
