Exceptional Wedding Photography Experience with Eric and Meli in Costa Rica

We recently had the pleasure of working with Eric and Meli for our destination wedding (Jan 2023) in Costa Rica, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. From the very beginning, they exceeded our expectations with their professionalism, creativity, and attentiveness.

We had two initial Zoom meet and greet sessions to discuss our vision and special requests, which included creating one-minute videos and executing particular photo shoot styles. Eric and Meli were not only great listeners, but they were also incredibly accommodating and understanding of our unique needs. Their responsiveness was a breath of fresh air, especially in comparison to other vendors we encountered in Costa Rica.

Over the course of three days, we met with Eric and Meli for various photoshoots. Each day, they were prompt, on time, and ready to capture the essence of our love story. Their professionalism and expertise allowed us to feel confident and relaxed throughout the entire process.

Weddings can undoubtedly be stressful, but knowing that we were in good hands with Eric and Meli alleviated a significant amount of our worries. They managed to make the experience not only stress-free but also enjoyable and memorable.

In summary, we had a fantastic experience with Eric and Meli as our wedding photographers in Costa Rica. Their ability to listen, accommodate, and capture our special moments with such grace and skill has left us with memories we will cherish forever. We wholeheartedly recommend Eric and Meli to anyone seeking talented, reliable, and professional photographers for their special day.

Outstanding Wedding Photographer

My (my now) wife and I were really pleased with everything Eric did for us. He was always on time and had great ideas for the photo locations and his vast prior experience in wedding photography was certainly evident! Eric speaks English very well which was really important for my wife and I who don't speak Spanish. I would highly recommend Eric to others!

Melissa 'Meli' Montoya
Senior Photographer

Meli loves Sushi, the beach, and spending time with her little Priya.

Over the years Meli has curated her photography aesthetic and look. She loves the moody/film look but is also ready to accommodate to work on a light and airy look upon request.

She is great at working on building rapport with every couple and helping them be at ease while directing them for specific photo ideas.

Her sweet and calm personality is a key ingredient to achieving timeless photos.

Any couple getting Meli to shoot their wedding will find a friend enjoying alongside and delivering memorable photos.

Eric Hurtado
Senior Videographer

Daydreamer, modern history enthusiast, happy husband, and proud Dad.

Storytelling & Weddings is indeed an amazing combination. Eric captures the essence of the couple in beautiful visuals.

Getting his inspiration from sitcoms old and new clearly helps in his search for those unique angles and shots.

Crafting unique videos that tell the story of how the wedding day was felt is His mission and he will go above and beyond to deliver.

A fresh take on Cinematic Wedding Videos, that's what Eric is.
