So in love with our wedding photos!!
I can’t recommend Ryan and his team enough. We booked Ryan to do our engagement photos during a trip to Punta Cana and they were absolutely perfect. A year later, we hired Ryan to do our wedding photos for our destination wedding. Everyone raved about how great he was! Not only was he the best photographer, but he was almost like my day of coordinator with all the little things he did for me and our guests. He’s extremely personable, took beautiful photos, & got them back to us very quickly! You will not be disappointed if you book him! We hope to eventually do family photos with him when we are back in the DR!

Wedding Review 06.16.26
Our experience with Punta Cana Photo Collective was nothing short of amazing! They were very responsive and flexible throughout the whole planning process. Communication and payment was very easy and straightforward. They helped us create a custom package to match our needs and even allowed us to add on an extra hour of video the week before the wedding. The cost was very reasonable and they even offered a vendor fee credit which we appreciated. The day of the wedding, Ryan and Julien were so kind and patient with our big group. They helped keep us on schedule but also made sure that we got all of the shots that we wanted. We got all of our photos back so quickly and we are obsessed with them! We’ve received so many compliments on how beautiful they are! We can’t wait to see how the videos turned out! Collin & I highly recommend PC Photo Collective to any couples considering them for their special day!

Roanny helped us during our wedding day and she was amazing. Very professional knew exactly why to ask how to guide us and with the sneak peek we received only 5 days after the wedding we are loving her work!
The communication with PC team was also great. Very friendly staff and would definitely recommend for anyone looking for their services!

Beautiful photos!
Hired them for my wedding at Royalton Bavaro and was so happy with how the pictures came out! Whether posed or candid, they really captured the joy of the day and I have been getting compliments from everyone on how beautiful the photos are.

The best ever
Ryan is professional yet relaxed, he was on hand all day for everything not just being our photographer, he entertained the babies, made us all laugh and feel at ease, put my veil back in my hair when the wind messed it up, picked seaweed out of my dress, carried stuff to the ceremony location, everything!!!! We are based in England and so booked all vendors via email and instagram, which was really risky and worrying. Ryan was reliable and always responded to my messages when I triple checked he was definitely coming to our wedding haha!!! Our photos are amazing, the close ups and the attention to detail on them is second to none. Would re book in a heartbeat.

Beautiful photos!!!
We had a photo shoot to announce my pregnancy in Cap Cana, and it was an incredible experience. Punctual, talented, and very warm. The photos turned out beautiful.

I highly recommend Ryan—1,000%! He was not only fun but also incredibly easy to work with. Ryan made me feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, and the photos turned out fantastic. You can’t go wrong with choosing him!

Best wedding photographer ever!
My husband and I were married in September 2022. Ryan and his crew were incredible photographers. The process was so smooth. They told us exactly how to stand to make the best photos, captured every moment perfectly, and were very officiant and professional. The day after our wedding, hurricane Fiona made landfall causing serious damage to our resort. We were supposed to meet with Ryan to go through the photos the next day. However, we had to be moved to another resort on the island that hadn’t sustained damage. Not only did Ryan keep his commitment to have the picture to us, he came to our new resort to make sure we were okay and the pictures were perfect for us. Every single photo was perfect and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would recommend Ryan to anyone looking to capture their special moments.

Best wedding photographer!!!
Ryan is the best honestly! I got married in 2022 and everyone always asks me about our wedding photos and who did them. He captured the best photos of my husband and I and with my parents and inlaws. He stayed to capture more photos then we paid for because he loves what he does and that should speak volumes! I will forever have great things to say about Ryan and his work.
