From Cali to Costa Rica- Mom Surprise Gift
I highly recommend El Velo!! I was looking for a photographer to surprise my daughter with engagement pictures while they were in Costa Rica. I was concerned as I was doing this via Internet from California. El Velo team was very responsive and professional from the start. Andrea connected with me within 48hrs of me reaching out. She help calm my concerns regarding scams. We were able to set up communication via Whstsup along with emails. The process was seamless from contract to payment, to appointment place and time. Lucho the photographer was amazing and timely. My daughter shared how they enjoyed working with Lucho and how professional and kind he was. He listened to their needs and exceeded their expectation! They were able to also get some family photos in! Lucho was able to capture the love and beauty in his photos! I am so grateful for the extraordinary care and kindness provided! I HIGHLY recommend El Velo to anyone looking to get professional beautiful pictures along with amazing experience!! Thank you El Velo!!El Velo Photography's reply:

Amazing experience with Luis Vega!
We had such a great time with Luis as our photographer, he was amazing! His professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail truly stood out. He made the entire process so comfortable and fun, and the final photos were stunning — far exceeded our expectations. He came to our hotel in Parador / Manuel Antonio and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to capture moments beautifully on their special day. Thank you so much Luis for everything!El Velo Photography's reply:

June Wedding Service
El Velo was wondering! They were on time, even early professional and provided us with over 200 stunning pictures of our day. From getting ready to the reception. There were several pictures of ALL our guests so no one felt left out. The amazing quality and stunning suggestions from both photographers were so appreciated.-

10th anniversary pictures
We wanted to do pictures for our 10th anniversary at a waterfall then back at our resort on the beach. Luis was our photographer and he met us at the waterfall. He had great ideas for poses for pictures and great angles. He was attentive to anything we asked him to take a picture of. There is not one picture I don't absolutely love. Our phones did not have good service in Costa Rica so I emailed the company to let them know and get set everything up letting me know who would be our photographer and send a picture of who to look for. Everything was outstanding from start to finish. I can't recommend this company highly enough! Luis's attention to detail in the pictures was amazing. My husband and I are extremely happy with our pictures.El Velo Photography's reply:
Thank you so much for this amazing review, Samantha! It's been such a pleasure working with you! You guys make such a lovely couple and we're honored to have been a part of your celebration! -

Everything we wanted and more!
We had the pleasure of having Luis and Danny as our photographer/videographer for our destination wedding, and they truly exceeded our expectations! Andrea was fantastic in addressing our inquiries and staying in touch via email throughout the planning process. As for the day of the wedding, Luis and Danny were professional and seamlessly provided a structure to capture the moments of our big day. Their genuine desire to preserve the special moments was evident. As for the photos themselves, we absolutely love them and will cherish them forever. We are impressed with the quality, amount, and turnaround time for the photos (video to come later). Overall, we highly recommend El Velo!El Velo Photography's reply:

Amazing experience with Luis
Planning a wedding from a different country can be stressful and difficult. We found El Velo Photography via WeddingWire and after looking at the portfolios and the great price points, we decided to go with them. And what a GREAT choice. Our photographer, Luis, was on time and very personable. We mentioned this was our first time being professionally photographed, so we were a bit nervous and he was awesome. He guided us to different poses and made us all feel very comfortable. We were racing against the sunset to get some shots on the beach and he completely took over the situation and the results were absolutely beautiful. Communication via email with El Velo was clear, concise and as mentioned above, the price point is much smaller than competitors for more time. We would 100% recommend El Velo and especially Luis to handle your wedding or other special moments with ease and professionalism.
Thanks again Luis, can't wait to see all the photos!-

Wedding pictures
I recently had the pleasure of working with Luis, who truly exceeded my expectations. From the very first interaction to the final delivery of our breathtaking wedding pictures, Luis was able to capture every magical moment.
One of the most remarkable aspects of our experience was Luis's attention to detail. He had an incredible eye for spotting the smallest details that added depth and beauty to each photograph. Whether it was capturing the delicate flower on my dress, or the heartfelt expressions on our faces.
The final product, our pictures, is a masterpiece in itself. The pictures are simply stunning, each one so evoking. Luis skillfully managed to capture the essence of our love story in a collection of images that will be cherished for a lifetime.
Beyond his undeniable talent, what truly set Luis apart was his warm and friendly demeanor. He effortlessly made us feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. His ability to connect with us allowed for natural and authentic pictures.
Thank you once again Luis for your incredible work and for giving us the gift of reliving our wedding day through your lens.

Costa Rica beach wedding 5-17-23
Our photographers Danny and Luis were an amazing team who worked very diligently and well together to not only capture beautiful photos, but also to make us feel more relaxed! During the hour with them they felt like friends who really cared about what we wanted for our photo shoot. The photos turned out amazing. We haven’t seen the video yet, but are sure it will not disappoint us! If you want to have gorgeous photos, feel relaxed and even have fun and laughs during your wedding celebration and photo shoot then Danny and Luis are for you!-

El Velo Photography was a dream!
El Velo Photography was a dream to work with and we couldn't be happier with our experience with them. Before contacting, we were so impressed with the photos we saw them take at previous weddings at our wedding venue, so we knew we had to book with them. Communication back and forth via email was easy, and the staff was always friendly and informative. We specifically asked for the photographer Luis, and when we met him during our wedding he was such a joy. He was so warm/sincere, he knew where to go to get the most magical photos at our wedding venue, and he knew exactly what we were looking for. I was stunned to see the photos he sent us -- they came out 10x even more wonderful than we expected. We are so happy with our experience with El Velo Photography. We highly recommend them!El Velo Photography's reply:

Photography and Videography at it's BEST!!
This company is amazing, I had a destination wedding in Costa Rica, it was new to me and trying to figure everything out, I forgot a couple things. Two weeks before flying out, we forgot about booking the photography!! The resort were we staying at provided photography but not videography and I really wanted to capture family on video. Luckily my sister in-law did some searching and found El Velo! Their work is amazing, responded in a timely manner and prices were awesome but the experience was more than I could ever imagine!!
Danny and Luis are the dream team, we had other wedding issues happen through out the day but they made everything better!!
Danny and Luis personalities were so welcoming and made the family feel at home.
A huge, Thank you to the guys and the wonderful lady behind it all, Andrea!
We received our sneak- peaks and lets just say it brought tears to my eyes that they captured the beautiful moments on our special day!!
The over all experience was amazing and this team has great communication, beautiful work and top notch customer service!!
I HIGHLY recommend El Velo Photography and Videography, you will not be disappointed!!
We plan to go back for our 1 year anniversary, we will see yall then!!
Love,
The Hernandez and Dominguez Family-

Wedding Photos
We had an amazing experience with El Velo Photography for our wedding photos. Luis, our photographer, did an amazing job and made us feel so comfortable throughout the whole experience. We were a little awkward at first, as we are both not used to taking professional pictures, but Luis did such a great job making it such a fun and memorable experience! We loved the pictures we received. They were so beautiful and really caught the essence of the beautiful moment between my husband and I. I would highly recommend using El Velo Photography for your wedding photos, or any photos!El Velo Photography's reply:

Everything and more.
If you are planning your wedding you know how difficult it is to make a decision about almost everything. We chose El Velo and it was the best decision ever, Luis was great throughout the whole experience, super friendly and professional. He not only did his job but went above and beyond to make sure we were getting the pictures we wanted and he made sure we felt comfortable all the time. He took so many great pictures (1000+) and even stayed a little longer to capture our last event during the party.El Velo Photography's reply:

Amazing photographer!
We used El Velo for our wedding week photography and they were amazing! Luis was our photographer and he did such a good job. He captured so many good moments at pre wedding events and the wedding. The photos he took of me and my husband were beautiful. He had great ideas on where to go and what poses to do. He is also a fun guy to be around! Andrea is the manager and was always so responsive and helpful when I would email questions. I couldn't be happier with the experience and would recommend them to everyone.El Velo Photography's reply:

Everything we wanted!
Luis did a wonderful job capturing our wedding in beautiful professional photos. We couldn’t be more happy with the results. He was creative, energetic, and went over and above to make sure he captured the best photos. The golf cart that we were suppose to use on the resort broke down which lead us to have to walk 25 minutes down to the beach and then back up again in the pouring rain. Luis didn’t even hesitate to start lugging all his equipment down to the beach by hand, in the rain to get the beach photo we wanted. We would highly recommend Luis!-

Professional and great to work with.
They were great to work with on location and also very responsive afterwards when we had special requests for editing. The videos are our favorite of the project. They are stunning!El Velo Photography's reply:

Couldn’t be happier!
Luis was our photographer and it was pouring down rain, but that didn’t stop him from taking some of the most beautiful shots of our waterfall wedding. We couldn’t be happier with the photos we have and can’t stop looking at them!! Thanks Luis and El Velo ❤️-

We loved our photos!!!
Amazing customer service. We booked for July 2020 and had to reschedule twice before we were finally able to make it to Costa Rica and they were so understanding and easy to work with. On our special day, it thunder-stormed like crazy and we were worried about the pictures but they turned out amazing anyways. We highly recommend them, you will not be disappointed.-

Fairy Tale Elopement
We eloped to Costa Rica in May and everything was arranged through our travel agent (shout out to Elope Costa Rica and Catalina and James). I did not meet Luis, our photographer until the event arrived- but by the end we were all friends drinking champagne together! I am older (50) and had gained weight during quarantine. In all honesty I was not excited to take picture but he made me look beautiful! The pictures are spectacular. He even noticed our dorky love of Star Wars and edited some pictures so it seemed like a lightsaber battle. He really went above and beyond. Thank you for making our day look perfect!-

Such an amazing experience
We originally planned our Costa Rican wedding over a year ago and it got postponed twice due to Covid. El Velo photography was so accommodating and flexible. They changed dates for me twice. The night before our wedding we had to postpone the ceremony for an hour and they didn’t mind at all. Luis came out and did a fantastic job. We have so many gorgeous pictures. It started pouring rain in the middle of our photo session and he continued to provide us with the best ideas for different shots. I am speechless at the beauty of these photos. They evoke such emotion. I would highly recommend.-

Amazing service, hire them immediately!
Our wedding pictures turned out amazing? The photographer stayed an hour over our original scheduled time because we were running late. Hire them immediately, you will be pleased with the level of service. Everyone in our wedding party and guests loved how the photos of them looked. Really amazing work that El Velo does and the price is very affordable compared to other photographers out there.El Velo Photography's reply:

Amazing photography and videography!
My husband and I eloped to Costa Rica and Luis, our photographer was amazing and so flexible! We did the ceremony at a waterfall and also did a trash the dress photo shoot at the beach! He was amazing, he had a lot of ideas and was open to ones that we had too! We also had Danny as our videographer and he was so creative and very talented as well! Would highly recommend!-

Captured All the Magic!
Danny and Luis of Velo Photography absolutely nailed our wedding photos and video. The most important aspect is quality of the product, I expected a few good pictures to be buried amidst hundreds but it was dozens and dozens of good ones, which made it a real challenge to figure out which ones to print and share! Secondarily but also important, they were fun and understanding before, during, and after the ceremony. They struck a good balance of letting us live in the moment of our big day but keeping us conscious of the sunset and it's effect on lighting. When it inevitably got dark, they were prepared with the necessary equipment. I'm not sure if they scouted the location beforehand or if they had been to the venue before, but they knew exactly where to stage our photos for absolutely epic shots. It's not like we got to practice posing for our wedding, but they positioned us such that we looked comfortable. Members of our wedding party let us know they were grateful to the mindfulness paid by Luis and Danny to snap shots of them with their dates, as they had been in many weddings in which there were only group photos. A few weeks after the photos we got their edited video and it was breathtaking. All those poses that didn't photograph well really shined in the video! They captured the wonder of the landscape and somehow made us look amazing in the process. Legitimately, I am glad we went with Velo Photography to capture one of our happiest days, because they really made the day better for everyone there, and now we have a lot of epic documentation of our wedding.El Velo Photography's reply:

Everything was perfect!
From start to finish everything was Great! Luis was super easy to work with and nailed every photo! My original hair and makeup person cancelled on me so we had to change times a little and he was super relaxed about it! My fiance isn't a lover of taking lots of photos and he even got him to smile and enjoy it lol! Our engagement photos turned out picture perfect! Can not wait for the wedding! Communication was also easy!El Velo Photography's reply:

Great Experience!!!
I had the perfect experience!!! The photographer captured our personalities in the pictures. The video was expertly done and included the songs we chose!!! They were professional and fun to work with. They were very patient as we moved around the resort to finish the photo session. They even let us come up with poses that we wanted to do!!! They made the whole experience easy and the finished product was well worth the price!!!!El Velo Photography's reply:

Well taken care of on our big DAY!
Andrea set us up with an amazing duo: photographer Luis and our wedding officiant/ photographer assistant Lineth. They were very good to us and went the extra mile. We have pictures that make us look photogenic and we definitely are not. I can't imagine a better wedding day/ experience and they helped make that happen.

great experience!
my husband i eloped to costa rica and wanted professional pictures to capture the event and share with friends and family. el velo was the only company that was flexible with their rates and time, and modified what they offer in order to allow us to have one hour of photography. Luis was great to work with- it was clear how passionate he is about photography, and was so excited after each picture he took! my husband hates getting his picture taken and he lasted the full hour without any complaints, and thats in part to how fun and personable Luis was! the pictures came out fantastic and I couldnt have asked for a better experience! thank you!-

Very responsive, on time, seemed to really care we had a positive experience.
Everything was great. I wish I could remember the photographers name that worked with us but he was on time, even ran over to save the train of my dress from getting wet by a wave at one point during taking photos which I thought was awesome. He helped instruct us for poses and overall captured everything I wanted. I do think some of the editing could’ve been a little better but overall for the price I was very happy.-

Highly Professional and Friendly Photography Team in CR!
El Velo's team was highly professional from the very start: they were very upfront with their packaging and how much everything cost. If there were any specials available they would let us know and apply if possible. On the day of the wedding their photographers were very professional and creative in juggling both sides of the wedding party. They were there for us throughout our ceremony and capped it off with our best photo shoot ever on the beach in Manuel Antonio. They knew all the best spots and got very creative with the props and the background. We highly recommend El Velo!!! -

Absolutely Amazing Professional Photographers!!
First let me say we had no idea what the photographer would be like since our wedding planner had booked it for us. Turned out to be an absolute dream wedding and we were thrilled to realize we had top notch professional photographers to capture our incredible day with stunning photos that we will cherish forever. They were extremely quick, each shot was done effortlessly and turned out perfect, it went very smooth. Many of our guests commented at how amazing they were too as they took photos of all our guests with and without the bride & groom so they had nice family photos as special memories too. It is my pleasure to recommend El Velo as they truly were amazing!!El Velo Photography's reply:

Amazing photos of our elopement!
I can not recommend them enough! Our elopement planner booked El Velo for us, so we had no idea what to expect. The photos are AMAZING! Sincerely beautiful images of our rainforest wedding at La Paz Waterfall Gardens. We had a link to a sneak peak website within two weeks and then all our photos about a month later.
In addition to the quality of the photos, because we were eloping, our photographer was also our witness and one of the few people we spent time with at our wedding. He was really great and so happy for us, it added to our special day. We had so much fun scouting locations, and even got some really great shots with toucans :)-

El Velo Photography did an amazing job and I couldn't have asked for anything better. I am in love with my photos! We had a destination wedding in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica in May 2018. They were very responsive, answered all of my questions, and the photo quality was amazing! Definitely recommend them to everyone!El Velo Photography's reply:

Our wedding was in Costa Rica and it was extremely hot that day. The photographer, Juan, was absolutely amazing! He knew the venue very well and he had great tips and pointers. The pictures were beautiful. He was kind, courtesy, and professional. Great work!-

Andrea and Juan Carlos were absolutely incredible through our whole wedding and planning leading up to the wedding day. Andrea was very informative and easy to work with. She set everything up wonderfully! Juan Carlos was incredible. Taking even his birthday evening to capture our wedding and reception at the Zephyr Palace in Costa Rica. He knew all the perfect lighting spots and captured the precious moments throughout the day. We got our pictures back about 2 months after the wedding and they are beautiful! We couldn’t be more grateful or thankful for the whole team!!!El Velo Photography's reply:

I used El Velo for photography and videography for my destination wedding in Costa Rica on July 28 2018. The resort I got married at (Flamingo Beach Resort) suggested El Velo, but I already had my heart set on El Velo anyway after reading the incredible reviews. Since I relied heavily on the reviews, I feel it is only right I share my experience as well to ensure others will have a good idea as to why El Velo is the right company to use. I emailed Andrea more than a year out and locked in my date. She was so sweet and very responsive. Originally, we were doing about 6 hours of photography and 3 hours of video. About a month out, we decided we wanted to max out the time for both. I emailed Andrea asking if this was something that could be done and she was very accommodating and ensured that the photographer and videographer would be available for additional time as requested. I specifically requested Juan Carlos and could not have been happier with my decision! Not only is he incredibly talented, but he's a genuinely kind and interesting person. I really enjoyed working with him. I have only received the sneak peak to date but OH MY GOODNESS - I am in love with every picture he took!! The turn around time for this "sneak peak album" was so fast - about 6 business days and there are a TON of photos included (close to 100). I have friends and family reaching out to me saying how beautiful the pictures came out and specifically complimenting the photography work. I forgot the videographer's name (I feel terrible about that) but he was absolutely incredible also! I haven't received the video yet but he always seemed to be close by to capture the moment without being too intrusive. I can not wait to get the rest of the pictures and the video! I wish this company worked out of NY also because I would use them over and over again any time I needed a photography/videography! Thank you El Velo for capturing the most magical day of our lives <3 Pura Vida!-

Can not begin to put in words how amazing our photographs were!! It means so much that we have such amazing photographs to capture and remember our most special day! From the moment we met the photographer he made sure to do a phenomenal job in capturing all different angles and people from our wedding and of course the spotlight was on my husband and I. He made us feel at ease and you can tel in how great he captured each moment. I would highly recommend him as my expectations were exceeded! Below is the most amazing beautiful picture we have ever seen and cannot begin to count the numerous people and family who compliment on it as we immediately framed it the day we got a sneak peek at our photos!!El Velo Photography's reply:

Booking a photographer through our venue was a little nerve wracking since we didn’t have experience working with El Velo Photography. We truly couldn’t have asked for anything better. They were so easy to work with and the sneak peek was awesome. Can’t wait to see the final edits and video. I would definitely recommend them!!El Velo Photography's reply:

We had a wonderful time with El Velo and would recommend without any hesitation. Great experience on our wedding day - our photographer was great in person and had a very good sense of the location and where he wanted the pictures made. I can't say enough about how beautiful the final product is, too. I keep looking at the photos and thinking to myself, "There's no way that's a real place. It's too beautiful to be!" We're totally delighted.El Velo Photography's reply:

El Velo Photography was absolutely amazing every step of the way. When we were planning they were very responsive to emails and met with us when we went to Costa Rica on our planning trip. They provided all the information about their various packages in detail. On the day of the wedding Juan Carlos was amazing. He captured the day perfectly and our photos turned out great. He was not intrusive in any way, managed to get great shots in a very short amount of time, and got just the right amount of candid photos versus posed family/bridal party photos. I never felt like we were trying to take pictures instead of enjoying our day which is the greatest feeling during your wedding. I was also so impressed with the number of photos we received and they were all so wonderful. Thank you!!El Velo Photography's reply:

When exploring a wedding photographer for our destination wedding in Costa Rica, we exhausted all possible reviews and portfolios, and spoke with a handful of teams. We ultimately decided with the team at El Velo Photography, and it was the best decision we could have made. Our communications began with Andrea, and she quickly and thoroughly answered all of our questions regarding timing, additional options, budgeting, and shot list. We knew from the start that we would be in good hands. We wanted our photographer to be someone who could take the lead and guide many of the moments of the wedding day in order to capture all of the important and sometimes not so obvious moments. Our El Velo photographer, Juan Carlos, far exceeded our expectations. We have never met a wedding photographer with so much composure, confidence, charisma, and comprehensive talent. Juan Carlos understood the stresses, tensions, and technicalities of the moments before, during, and after the wedding, and he knew exactly how to handle each moment and make sure that everyone, not just the bride and groom, felt like they were getting documentation of all of the incredible moments. He was ever-present, yet never visible. He captured ever moment we wanted, and so many more we didn’t even know we wanted. It took about 5 minutes for us to put 100% trust in JC, knowing that he would achieve our goal. The experience during the wedding day is one part of the photography service, but ultimately, the photos are what are most important. JC not only captured the moments, but captured them with an unrivaled eye for creativity, angles, and lighting, focusing on the raw emotions of the event and producing images that tied in the nature, décor, and beauty of the Costa Rica atmosphere. We also utilized the option for a Polaroid photo booth, and JC's assistant did a great job as well! El Velo exceeded our expectations and we would wholeheartedly recommend their team for any wedding or event in Costa Rica.El Velo Photography's reply:
WOW, Russell and Shannon! Thank you SO MUCH for this amazing review. Thank you so much for all your kind words and many compliments! You made our day! It was such a pleasure working with you! -

Andrea at El Velo was always very responsive and helpful. Being in a different country (United States) and only being able to communicate via email is hard, but they make you feel at ease and with fast responses. JC, the photographer, and also the videographer were great and made both of us feel comfortable. I would highly recommend them to anyone.El Velo Photography's reply:

I was very happy with the sneak peek at my wedding photo's they turned out amazing and can't wait to get the rest. EL Velo shot my sister's wedding 5 years prior and it was amazing to be able to have them photograph my wedding. They were very flexible as my husband hates photo's and didn't want to be stuck getting photo's for hours they made sure they took amazing in a time that made my husband happy. I was very impressed with everything they did and was more then happy with the results. Thank you so much for my amazing photo's I will be able to cherish for a lifetime.El Velo Photography's reply:

I was so impressed on the amount of beautiful pictures we had, and how he was able to catch the essence of the day. I would highly recommend Andrea, he was highly professional, patient, talented, and a pleasure to meet! Thank you El Velo!!! We can't say enough great things!!El Velo Photography's reply:

My husband and I were very impressed with not only the beautiful photos that Luis took but also with the customer service Andrea provided. Having never been to Costa Rica before I would ask Andrea her opinion. It was nice that she was able to give me advice and tips about Costa Rica. I loved how our photographer was ready to take his shoes off and walk through the high tide to help us get to the rocks. I'm also very grateful how he was willing to experiment and try different shots that I had found on Pinterest. He was amazing and our photos turned out beautiful. Thank you El Velo Photography for everything!! ¡Pura Vida!El Velo Photography's reply:

We highly recommend El Velo for their dedication to their clients. From the moment they entered my room to start videotaping and taking photos it was a joy. Very Genuine and professional. Both Juan Carlos and the videographer were amazing. They were patient and easy going with such a large group I'm sure it wasn’t easy. They made us feel comfortable, Juan Carlos even took the time to help me change into my sandals. They made us feel so happy and excited to see the video and photos. They kept us laughing and was so open to all pictures even the ones that family members wanted to take. They had so many great idea for our pictures that I am sure when we get to see them it would be magical. They made a stressful event seem so easy it was like they were a part of the family. We couldn't ask for a better Company to do our pictures. Such Professionalism was shown that day that we have heard reviews from our own guest complementing them for their outstanding attitude. If you asked me would choose them again? I would tell you in a heartbeat.El Velo Photography's reply:

My husband and I were blown away by the pictures and video we got from El Velo. I requested that the videographer be very discreet when filming our vows. We eloped and wanted our vows to be intimate. El Velo was very accommodating ! They hid the microphone in the back of my dress and we never knew they were there after that. The videographer stayed way longer then what our contract stated in order to capture the best footage. The video is like a movie! The photographer was absolutely amazing too! She captured photos that were not posed ! They were REAL moments of us before , during and after the ceremony . I find this skill amazing and refreshing ! No photos looked posed ! The photos tell a story , which is what they should do but is very very hard to find in a photographer . I would highly highly recommend El Velo!!!!!!El Velo Photography's reply:

Juan Carlos not only captured every special moment, but he was also a lifesaver when it came to complications with buttoning my dress! He saved the day and was as professional as you could ask for. He is calming, helpful and gets the job done without taking too much time out of you enjoying your own wedding. He captured everything beautifully and we are so grateful!

Absolutely fabulous service and love my sneak peak wedding pictures! We are so anxious to see the rest!! Our photographer was Luis and he was perfect! He showed up on time, he was dressed absolutely perfectly for the occasion, he was extremely friendly and obviously knew what he was doing. He was very organized and was extremely helpful in coordinating our wedding party and family for all the beautiful photos. We are so happy with the service we've received from El Velo Photography! We would absolutely recommend them to anyone getting married in Costa Rica!El Velo Photography's reply:

My husband and I do an annual photo shoot for our anniversary. We hire a local photographer who will capture the people, the culture and the beauty of the location where we are celebrating our anniversary, so we have irreplaceable photographic memories for years to come. This year we fell in love...with Costa Rica. Luis of El Velo was remarkable. He was brilliant in how he captured us against the backdrop of Tamarindo. He made us feel so comfortable, and I could tell he was a gifted, talented artist who was willing to try fun, out of the box ideas in order to capture our love and the beauty of CR. I HIGHLY recommend El Velo for any and all of your photography AND video needs while you're in their area. They are professional, creative, gifted and talented. Don't miss out on their excellent workEl Velo Photography's reply:
Wow Hannah, We are humbled by your kind words. Thank you so much for taking the time and we are so happy to know Luis was so great. We love him too and think he is great. Hope we can see you again sometime. -

We LOVE our pictures...and had such a good time with our photographer Juan Carlos that he helped make our wedding day. He instantly because one of our friends and helped us to relax in front of the camera. Now we just have the tough decision of choosing which photo to use for our announcement!El Velo Photography's reply:

My new husband and I loved having El Velo Photography as a major part of our big day. They were always quick to respond to our emails and willing to be flexible as things changed. Our photographer Juan Carlos was wonderful! He was great at directing our loud family into position so we could get the best shots quickly. We absolutely loved working with him and would definitely recommend El Velo to anyone having a destination wedding.El Velo Photography's reply:

Our photographer was amazing to work with. He came to the home we rented to take pictures of us getting ready and then he drove to meet my husband at the venue. Even though we were running late he rolled with the time change and didn't stress and even kept the rest of us calm. He managed to capture all of the special moments without being intrusive. There was a very special moment between my Mom and I when she gave me a special gift and he captured the moment perfectly including my tearful reaction. We will always treasure the beautiful pictures of our Costa Rica wedding and Juan Carlos and El Velo Photography made it possible. My mom emailed Andrea back and forth to set up our special day. Andrea was incredible to work with. She explained everything and even made recommendations about changing the wedding time to get the best pictures possible. We would not hesitate to use El Velo Photography again they were simply fantastic and captured a life time of memories that we will treasure for a lifetime. Thank you so much!

Juan Carlos with El Velo was such a pleasure to work with on our wedding day. His enthusiasm made the process really fun! He has such a great eye and I love what he does with light. We appreciated seeing a few previews during the shoot and were blown away by how good they were. I’m camera shy, and was nervous about the process. I was afraid it would be tedious, but Juan Carlos' obvious expertise in his craft and demeanor made us comfortable. The time just flew by!
Andrea has been wonderful to communicate with and the photos on our preview site turned out beautifully. We can’t wait to see the final product. El Velo surprised us by producing a video for us that really captured the sentimentality of the day perfectly. It was just our style. I had no idea they were taking video throughout the process!
I wholeheartedly recommend El Velo to any couple looking for a wedding photographer or videographer in Costa Rica!

My husband and I could not be more pleased with the quality and artistry of the images as well as the entire process. The images really looked stunning! We were married at Villa Caletas. Our photographer, JuanCarlos, an absolute pro from start to finish and just so nice and easy to work with. He made us feel completely at ease and was able to capture some really special candid moments. Andrea, the general manager is also fantastic, easy to communicate with via e-mail and extremely helpful. The entire experience could not have gone any smoother. I would highly recommend El Velo Photography!El Velo Photography's reply:

My husband AJ and I got married on Virador Beach on Friday, December 18th, 2015. It was an absolutely perfect day, and El Velo Photography helped us to capture it so fully and so perfectly! We cannot thank you enough for all the planning, care, and attention to detail, that went into putting our Ceremony into picture form; we can't stop looking at the photos and they're just the 'sneak peak'!!
Thanks again to the El Velo Team, and Carlos, for your amazing work of art!

My husband and I are blown away by the photos that we received from our ceremony! We were married at the base of a waterfall inside of Arenal Volcano National Park - so it is not your typical wedding location! To make things more complicated, it was pouring rain and the ceremony location required a twenty minute hike into the park. But our photographer, Viviana, could not have been more amazing! She arrived early to my hotel, was very sweet and made me feel completely relaxed. At the location, she never complained even though it was pouring rain, but instead she was climbing up and down the rocks to make sure she got the best shots ... and did she ever! Her photos were magical and really captured the beauty of the setting. They even have the ability to fly a drone for your photos (weather permitting), and it was offered to us as a free bonus add-on! Pretty awesome!
In my initial search for a photographer, I was impressed by El Velo Photography's professionalism and responsiveness. Andrea at El Velo always responded quickly and thoroughly. Planning a wedding from a different country, can be nerve-racking, but Andrea always put me at ease throughout the process. A website with a selection of the images was available just two weeks after the ceremony! That's amazingly fast without having to pay extra! I would highly recommend El Velo Photography.El Velo Photography's reply:

From start to finish the level of professionalism and quality of the photographers as well as the general manager, Andrea, have been superb. Everything went flawlessly on the wedding day, they were prompt with all my requests and extremely courteous. The many years of experience and talent shows through the pictures they took. My wedding photo's turned out better than I ever could have expected and El Velo Photography is to thank for that.El Velo Photography's reply:

El Velo was great to work with! Andrea was easy to communicate with from Canada and made the process easy. The photos that we've seen so far from JuanCarlos on our wedding website are beautiful! He has a great eye and fantastic artistic talent. We are very happy to have chosen El Velo.El Velo Photography's reply:
