I found Quetzal on Instagram, then read their reviews here on WeddingWire and scoured through the photos on their website before finally meeting with them. I was instantly comfortable with Heather and was confident they would provide the best experience so I hired them for the full day, like 10 hours, on our wedding day and a few hours for a pool party the day after our wedding, and they absolutely delivered both days!

They were the highlight of our destination wedding weekend that was plagued with misadventures (because of the resort staff and other vendors) and they didn't let those other people ruin my excitement! They actually helped to keep my disastrous coordinator and other vendors in line too which was super helpful. For instance, several of my guests weren't served dinner at our reception and sadly they were part of that group, but the quetzal team suffered through with smiles on their faces reminding me "not to worry" and "to enjoy my big day". Also, I hired a separate videographer and they made every effort to coordinate with them in advance and follow up with them too, ensuring that they delivered for me too–I'm sure the videographers learned a lot from Quetzal too. They didn't just deliver wonderful photos, they delivered spectacular customer service. They helped keep us on schedule and reminded me of photos/poses that I would have forgotten about. They helped art direct us so we looked beautiful not strategically posed even though we were. They were friendly and kind and captured tons of incredible moments. At one point, they were even laying on the dance floor to photograph us taking shots HAHA! They didn't let any burden or blocker prevent them from memorializing our love, our friendships, and our fun.

In addition, they turned around the album so quickly! They even asked to share sneak peak pics on social media the day after the wedding and again the day after our pool party, and then gave us our entire album weeks before the contract date. I also love that the album allows me to see all of the photos, but I can limit the photos seen by guests of the album which is awesome and so easy to access and share. Ahead of our big weekend, I loved that they sent us a survey asking about us as individuals, us as a couple, and our expectations for them – the brief task actually helped me write my vows and my husband and I enjoyed responding to it because it got us excited to talk about our love, our journey, and our optimism for our future together. They care about the holistic experience, not just the day of details.

All in all, Quetzal will bring personality and professionalism to your big day. They are like photo-octopi; using 2 arms to do the work of 8 and fitting in anywhere. They will stop at nothing to deliver incredible service and you'll want to be their friend for life! Seriously, my husband and I, along with all of our guests LOVED them!

We had our wedding on 10/3/23. There is simply no one better than Quetzal! The team works so well together and damn good at what they do. They get to know you prior to your big day and they look like they absolutely love what they do.
Our experience was nothing short of amazing and they were exceptional!! They really blew us away with not missing a moment and capturing every detail, from us getting ready all the way to the end of the reception with the sparklers! Hire them for your full experience, you will not regret it!! I will be choosing them over and over again for any future events that will occur. No need to keep reading or scrolling, just choose Quetzal and you'll be very satisfied.

Not only are the photos amazing, the service, the communication, the professionalism, the flexibility and the sense of comfort you get from these girls is beyond amazing! Being that it’s a destination wedding, taking a risk on a photographer is nerve racking but they did not disappoint one bit!!!!! Not only did we notice it, but every guest couldn’t stop talking about how awesome our photographers were! If we could take them home with us we would! We would totally use them for every function, but unfortunately this was a destination wedding and a once in a lifetime event. And I couldn’t be more thankful for the moments they captured! When they captured the photos they captured the emotions in the photo which is absolutely astonishing! We woke up the next morning, with a ton of notifications from quetzal on instagram & facebook with photos and clips from the wedding! Our hearts were absolutely full! The turn around to receive the photos was beyond expected! Only thing I regret not doing is getting the bigger package and the video package! They are worth every penny if not more! Quetzal you have my vote 10000 times over! There are so many positive things to say! They are a fun group you will be laughing and having fun! Nothing is worse than a photographer without a sense of emotion or humor!

If you don’t know, now you know!
