Ruben did an amazing job at our wedding. He communicated with us promptly and thoroughly leading up to the wedding. He's clearly a professional, and took charge of the wedding photographs. He listened carefully to what photos I wanted, made sure to capture them, and took some fun interesting shots I hadn't even thought of. Also, his value is outstanding. He charges a very reasonable price for the level of service and quality you get from his packages.

Ruben was great! We had so many pictures of times we didn't even realize he was there. Watching our homemade wedding videos you could see him walking around during the ceremony but none of us even noticed at the time. I wish I had more pics of the guests but I hadn't told him that was what I wanted. He did everything else we asked from him. All of our edited pictures came out great..he really does unique things with the colors. I have never been that photogenic but I can't really find even one picture I didn't like out of the 900 he took that day!

Ruben is awesome. Very professional. He has an eye for unique poses. He is sneaky, you hardly notice him taking pictures, but then you get a dvd in the mail with 600+ photos. On top of the awesome photos he personalizes 80 of them for you. Just Check out his site, his work should speak for itself. You may even see me on there soon.

It is my pleasure to give this endorsement to Ruben who I have worked with on many events over the years. Not only is he a true professional at the top of his game but he is also a delight to work with. He has a gentle personality and at all times recognizes that his MO and that of the other vendors should add to the overall enjoyment of the client’s special event, whether it is a wedding, corporate event or even a memorial service. Take a look at his portfolio and you will see the stunningly beautiful results from the various events that he has covered. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any client looking for quality work and appropriate social skills – two attributes that I believe are essential for most event vendors.
