This was one of the best experiences of my life! Luco did an amazing job making me and my fiancé feel comfortable throughout the shoot. He went above and beyond to create the most beautiful engagement photos. I cannot express enough how much I love the work of this company from professionalism to positive energy they check every box!

Hiring a photographer for a destination wedding was a little stressful. We weren't able to meet prior, which wasn't a big deal to us, but still a little uncertainty with that. His portfolio was so spectacular that I knew there was no way we could go wrong, and I was absolutely correct. Chris quietly bopped around our respective rooms taking some prep photos (which I didn't necessarily need, but am so glad we got!). Our ceremony was so small that I wasn't sure if we'd feel his presence or hear him moving around the crowd but honestly I had no clue he was even there and the photos of the ceremony were so spectacular. We had a sunset ceremony so the lighting was tricky for him, but the way the pics came out were just breathtaking! After the ceremony we weren't sure where best to get some photos, we made some suggestions, he made some suggestions and we ended up having a lot of fun. We also asked Chris to join us the day after the ceremony at the beach for additional photos. It was a much more casual day, so he lounged with us, snapped some photos, we all made friends and were telling stories, it felt like he was just a good friend hanging out with us and snapping some photos while hanging at the beach. We're so glad we had him with us on our day and love the gorgeous artwork he turned our day into!

Dani was awesome! We saw his work on someone's blog and loved his style immediately. He was everywhere without being intrusive, which resulted in some great shots. He worked hard and quickly and seemed to never take a break. We got our photos back super fast too, which was great. He wasn't pose-y and cheesy at all, which was exactly what we were hoping to find in a photographer. Would hire him again in heartbeat!

From the moment we met Rodolfo, we knew we were in the best hands. He is truly an artist, someone who doesn’t just take photos, but captures the soul and emotion behind every moment. Our wedding day was filled with so much love, laughter, and joy, and Rodolfo managed to preserve it all in the most breathtaking way imaginable. Every single image tells our story with such authenticity and beauty. He has this amazing gift of noticing the little things: a shared glance, a spontaneous smile, the way the light hits just right. Everything was natural and full of emotion. Rodolfo’s team was also incredible, professional, kind, and so attentive to every detail. They made everyone feel comfortable and at ease, allowing the magic of the day to unfold effortlessly. We are beyond grateful for the memories Rodolfo and his team created for us. Looking through our photos feels like reliving the most beautiful day of our lives, moment by moment. Rodolfo, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your talent, passion, and warmth shine through in every photograph and video. You are truly exceptional, and we will cherish your amazing work (and art) forever.

Javier was such a joy during our rainforest elopement. We chose a very remote location that requires a drive cross-country, an overnight stay in a small town and is only accessible via boat. Javier did not bat an eye at the inconvenience and arrived on time and with such an amazing attitude. The whole day he was devoted to getting the best shots even through the high humidity and after it started pouring with rain! You would never be able to tell how challenging the weather was on the day because the photos came out amazing. Communications before the day were super easy as well. He has such a talent for capturing light and colour and an amazing eye for details. We were thrilled at not only the photos that you would "expect" from an elopement, but at all the extra details that Javier captured - the plants, the water, our accessories. We also loved the film photographs. Looking at the photos brought us right back to the day and all the little moments we weren't even aware Javier was capturing. We wanted something very intimate for our elopement and we were hesitant to get a photographer at first but Javier and his wonderful assistant were so unobtrusive and patient. He gave exactly the right amount of direction to help us pose for portraits and was wonderful at capturing candids. He indulged all of our ideas about the day (having a slow coffee and breakfast, handwriting our vows, hiking through mud and rain to our ceremony spot). But he also gave great suggestions for where to shoot and what actions would get the best shots. We're so grateful to have had him!

Wybraliśmy Macieja na fotografa z polecenia przy zdalnej organizacji ślubu w Kostaryce (mieszkamy w Europie). Od początku było jasne że to wybór idealny. Luźna atmosfera, podejście do nas jako do pary młodej które rozładowuje napięcie związane z emocjami w takim ważnym dniu, profesjonalizm. ogólnie wszystko się zgadzało. Maciej to fotograf który realizuje każdą fotograficzną zachciankę pary młodej a co ważniejsze ma wspaniałe pomysły kiedy para młoda nie ma wizji na sesję. Super poczucie humoru i idealne wyczucie naszych potrzeb sprawiło że sesja była czystą przyjemnością, pomimo że jesteśmy osobami, które nie lubią być fotografowane. Galeria zdjęć została przygotowana o wiele szybciej niż się spodziewaliśmy a same zdjęcia są przecudowne! Oddają magię miejsca w którym odbyła się ceremonia, powagę sytuacji ale również miłość, która grała w tym dniu pierwsze skrzypce. Nie mogę wyobrazić sobie lepszego fotografa na ten dzień! Usługa została wykonana za fair wynagrodzenie na najwyższą możliwą ocenę i jesteśmy za to bardzo wdzięczni!

How lucky were we to have Raw Shoots capture our memorable day. They were very easy to work with, communication was smooth, and have a great visual and creative eye. Each photo they captured was full of pure beauty and natural emotion. We did not feel awkward or look forced to pose. Not over filtered. All natural and each moment they captured revealed a beautiful story.

We honestly don’t even know where to begin with how happy we are we chose Adri and Lucas as our photos and video team- our experience and end product are beyond anything we could have imagined. The moment we opened the gallery, it felt like we were reliving the entire day. We laughed, we cried, and somehow every single emotion was captured so beautifully and authentically. The range and quality are of photos unmatched. Videos were delivered in a rage of formats- all were truly cinematic. Both feel modern yet timeless, artistic yet natural. We still can’t believe these are our photos and video. Beyond the final product, the experience working with the team was just as amazing. They made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, kept things fun and easy, and brought such a great energy to the day. It genuinely felt like we were just hanging out and enjoying ourselves, which made such a difference. Their expertise and professions is invaluable. When our original venue canceled 8 months out, they were an incredible resource offering guidance, sharing their knowledge of Costa Rica, and helping us feel confident through the transition. They truly know all the venues, all the other vendors, and can work with any setting, lighting, or weather and make it look stunning. In the lead-up to the wedding, they also provided thoughtful advice and support that helped us feel prepared and at ease posing, prepping for group photos, getting ready, and helping us to prioritize shots, timelines, etc. They are unbelievably talented, professional, and passionate about what they do. We feel so lucky to have had them capture our wedding and to have these memories forever. We cannot recommend them enough. 💖

We loved every one of our wedding pictures! They were wonderful to work with. Very professional. Our guests loved them as well and had only compliments. We were so happy with how our pictures turned out.

Working with Mauricio and his team was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding experience. From the very beginning, he made us feel seen, heard, and completely at ease. He took the time to get to know us—not just as clients, but as a couple—asking thoughtful questions that helped capture the true essence of our relationship. The photos? Breathtaking. Every single image radiates warmth, emotion, and artistry. You can tell you’re in the hands of someone truly award-worthy. His work is not just beautiful—it tells a story, our story, with such honesty and grace.
