Stop Searching - Select LMP

We recently had the pleasure to work with Leonardo for our Wedding in October in San Pedro! We're so grateful for his approach and kindness throughout the whole process. He made us feel comfortable and the moments captured took our breath away. We selected him after connecting with the more natural and genuine style his gallery showcased. Highly recommend for anyone torn between who to utilize for their special event, you won't regret selecting LMP!

Best Photographer in Belize!

We booked LMP on our planner’s recommendation and booked over a year in advance because we didn’t want to miss out on working with them. The photos exceeded our expectations, we can’t stop enjoying them! The use of light and attention to detail in the outdoors is impeccable. Thank you for everything!

Absolutely wonderful experience working with these guys. Efrain was very good and fun to work with and his assistant actually taught us a lot about the local plants and animals that we pointed out throughout the day! The photos are breathtaking, I could not be happier with them. Thank you for capturing our day!!

If you are having a wedding in Belize do yourself a favor and hire Leonardo Melendez Photography as your Photographer. They are amazing with communication, friendliness, understanding your vision and not to mention the photos you get are stunning done by true talent.
It's harder than one thinks to Elope 2000 miles away I had to hire someone I never met in person and trust that it will work out after viewing their work on the internet. Seeing that we decided last minute to elope on our planned vacation.
We had been exchanging emails about what type of photos we wanted and what we didn't want. Efrian took the time to call me and talk at length about our vision and what we wanted. That call eased my mind and I knew everything would be great.
Excellent customer service all away around. I can't say enough wonderful things about everyone I dealt with at Leonardo Melendez Photography.
They love what they do and it shows in more than just the pictures, which will blow you away! My pictures look like postcards its such a great keepsake.

The experience I had with Leonardo Melendez Photography is worth every penny and then some.

All I can say is THANK YOU SO MUCH.. Efrain and Leonardo went above and beyond my expectations, you guys did such an amazing job. I was a little sad after my wedding I didn't hire a Videographer for Friday for the Rehearsal/Welcome Party but thankfully I had Leonardo and Efrain for Friday and Saturday and they captured everything and made me relive my perfect day. They were punctual, professional and listened to what I wanted to accomplish to a T and boy they delivered!. I wanted a mix of everything, details, romantic pictures, candid pictures, and they didn't disappoint. Everyone has told me judging by the pictures how fun and loving the wedding looked. Thank you so much guys! Really I couldn't have asked for a better team for my special day!

If you are getting married in Belize, I would suggest e-mailing Leonardo TODAY! He was booked on our wedding day (one year in advance) however we had the privilege of doing a day after shoot with him at Xunantunich. We ended up loving ALL of our photos in Belize, but Leonardo's work was still better than our wedding day photographers!! You can tell how passionate he is about what he does, he is a pleasure to work with. Our final images took a while longer than anticipated to receive but were well worth the wait! Thanks Leonardo and Efrain, we have been told our Xunantunich photos look like they were shot for a high end Vogue or Harper's Bazaar editorial campaign!!

The entire team is amazing! We worked with Efrain and he was wonderful. The picture quality and clarity was perfect. The day of Efrain was very calming and sweet, and had the right balance of letting us experience our day and also pushing us for some great extra shots that we are so grateful to have now. Our other videographer company was awful (entire video out of focus), so we are so thankful to have the amazing pictures and quality from Efrain. We had another reception back home a month later and the team was kind enough to edit 80 pictures for us ahead of schedule to use at our reception! Their customer service, response time and professionalism is top notch.

If you are in Belize for a wedding, special occasion, or just want to be able to recall a moment in time, we highly recommend Leonardo Melendez Photography. Our son and new daughter-in-law employed them for their wedding in Hopkins. Leonardo and his assistant were not only extremely professional, but were able to capture the joy and happiness throughout the entire day...telling a story of a special time in our lives from preparation to the evening dinner with a calmness that was contagious. We have wonderful photos that are not only traditional but creative. Their patience and skill captured the emotions and beauty of the day perfectly.
