I’m beyond happy with the quality of the photos! You must book him if you want to feel comfortable at your wedding and have amazing photos! Harold you rock!!!!! -

Harold did both our engagement photoshoot and wedding photos. We felt so lucky to have found him! He is good at making you feel comfortable and at capturing moments you didn’t think they would be memorable. He is creative, responsible, and loves to work in unique settings. I would recommend Harold in a heartbeat to any couple who is looking for an easy going, hard-working, and creative photographer. Thank you! -

Harold was the best vendor we worked with!
Harold was our photographer for our wedding in October and he was the absolute best photographer that we could have chosen to work with! He is funny, charismatic, patient, professional and extremely skilled! We were pleasantly surprised when he brought a second shooter (we had a large bridal party and this helped us so much with staying on our timeline!) He was more than just our photographer - he was like a personal assistant throughout the whole day - he controlled the mood of any room that he was in. During cocktail hour, he seamlessly guided us through as we chatted with guests and assisted us with transitioning from group to group with ease. He caught every moment of our wedding day perfectly. We can’t say enough kind things about Harold - everyone who attended the wedding commented on how much they loved Harold and his amazing personality. We shared so many laughs together and his vision was able to shine in our photos. We can’t wait to work with Harold in the future. He is the best HANDS DOWN! It was an unforgettable experience! -

As a first time bride planning my own wedding it is so nerve wrecking how do you pick the right photographer, venue caterer etc?!! Let me tell you from the moment I spoke to Harold on the phone I knew he would be the one I wanted to capture my day. I like to play hard to get so I told him Id reach back out in a few days. haha I reached back out a few hours later to book him!! I trusted him from the moment we spoke, I knew I was going to be in good hands on the most important day of my life. Fast forward to our wedding day, he and his team met me with a smile, gave me courage and confidence that I needed to start my ceremony and wedding day. Harold is an artist, a true pro, a caring person, funny and in the short amount of time I got to know him, I know noone can go wrong with hiring him and his team. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you, thank you thank you! -

Harold was a true professional. He calmed all of my nerves on the day of my wedding. Even though it was just him, I felt as if I had several photographers around me. He was always there by side when I needed him, took tons of shots, and went out of his way to get the perfect image. He delivered my photographs back to me with lightning speed - I was shocked! He's got a great personality too. Everyone in my wedding party was having such a good time and we can thank Harold for helping to contribute to the good vibes. All I can really say is "thank you!" to Harold and I 100% would recommend his services! His fee is totally reasonable as well. You won't regret it! -

Harold was great. He was easy to contact with any questions we had. I wasn't sure how to plan the timeline for our wedding but he helped me out. The day of the wedding he was on time. When we were on our way to the venue he asked if we wanted coffee and bought us coffee. The whole day at the wedding went perfect. Before he left he asked if we wanted any group photos. I got the pictures back pretty quick. I am still waiting for the video but he said it's almost done. I have so many photos to choice from. Thank you again Harold. -

Konstandina Sent on 09/17/2021You need to choose him
Why you ask?
As an inexperienced bride in the wedding realm (I say inexperienced because I did not have any close friends or siblings plan a wedding around me), Harold made sure to ease my mind from the moment I called to inquire about his services. He answered all my questions and even advised me on all things wedding related, better than a planner or a best friend who has been married several times over. He made sure to communicate with me exactly how and what to expect and plan with my pictures, which made that part of the day very pleasant and calm. And very importantly—- he brought me and my mother Starbucks coffee and breakfast! Had it not been for him I would have eaten at my reception at 7pm! It’s the little things that shows how much he loves what he does and cares for his clients.
His expertise and artful eye in photography is what first captured my attention. However, after working with him on my wedding day, it was his compassion, friendliness, meticulousness, positive energy, and work ethic that really shined. It’s been three weeks and I still have guests complementing me on my choice in photographer and how incredible he was and how many pictures he took!
Now to the results—OUTSTANDING
He provided a huge selections of images very quickly and the rest shortly after. Harold is our photographer for all events moving forward. Thank you Harold! -

Harold Duarte was out wedding photographer for March 20,2021. When we spoke and met Harold, we immediately knew that he is a professional Photographer who uses his artistic abilities to capture the most important moments of any occasion. Arriving earlier on the day of our wedding, to help cater to our needs,he immediately began using his photographic skills. He is professional, polite and is faithful to his kraft. He captured moments of our day that we will cherish a lifetime. Thank you Harold for making our wedding day the best in the world. -

Patricia Sent on 03/18/2020Harold came to us with an open mind and was very thoughtful on our wishes.
My husband and I were looking for a photographer and video vendor that will meet our needs but most of all will make our day seem magical. That is what we were able to achieve with Harold. He was able to make us happy at all points of the day from waking up super early and spending the day with us by taking pictures and having his video man capture every highlight of our beautiful day. -

Hire Harold Duarte! You won't regret it!
Harold made the whole process so easy and was a pleasure to work with! He took control of the event in order to make sure we really got the best pictures possible. He was able to manage getting pictures of all the bride’s and groom’s families- which are big and chaotic. He got every combination of families for the formal pictures. He was even good about getting pictures with and without girlfriends/boyfriends (just in case they’re not part of the family down the road). Moreover, he was able to capture some great candid shots (which were my personal favorites). He was attentive, punctual, calm, and very professional. He seems to really love what he does. It was 40 degrees outside and everyone was freezing, but he was great about making sure we got all our pictures taken without a complaint and even offered me (the bride) his jacket between pictures (so thoughtful!).

Friday 11.29.2019 Harold was my photographer for my wedding!!! He did an amazing Job getting everyone sorted and helping me control the group which was a lot of anxiety for me. Everyone raves about Harold. They even went out of there way to call me and tell me how good he was! That’s a big win in my family! Harold always cracks me up and a real crowd pleaser. All my best friends raved! He tried to calm me down on so many occasions and hiccups with other vendors! He did not give me one issue! thanks Harold! -

10/10 would reccomend!
My (now) husband and I first worked with Harold for our engagement shoot and we were immediately comfortable and confident in booking him for our big day! From the moment you meet him, Harold radiates professionalism and positivity. He is beyond prepared with multiple top of the line cameras, lenses, equipment and lighting rigs that translate to STUNNING photos. You can immediately tell he has deep experience in the way he poses us for the shot and the dynamic he has with his team. During our wedding day, another couple had taken the spot we wanted to use for our first look. He was able to think fast and creatively to solve this and we ended up having photos we love more. I/ we never had to wonder how we were photographing. He makes the posed shots feel effortless and fun and can also capture the organic moments of love and happiness in the candids. DID I MENTION HE MADE A STARBUCKS RUN THE MORNING OF. He genuinely cares about his clients and wants them to be comfortable in and out of the frame and it shows! -

Harold and his team went above and beyond for me and my husband. From the first communications, to the engagement shoot, to the big day, and afterwards - everything was done with professionalism, quality, and timeliness. I got my wedding photos about 2 weeks after the big day - record breaking time! They are beautiful. My only suggestion to brides is that if Drone pictures were in your package & important to you, make sure you alot enough time for his team to take them; we were a bit Jammed packed. But we have hundreds of beautiful photos. Harold was positive, friendly, and worked within our budget perfectly. He was very accomodating. -

“I hired Harold for his videography services for my wedding. I'm so pleased with how my wedding video came out. It really tells a story and captures the magic of our day. In addition to his talented eye, Harold was very friendly and accommodating. The day of the wedding he was on time, had great ideas for different shots and angles. I felt very comfortable working with Harold. He's got a sense of humor and can dance too! Harold worked well with other vendors such as my photographer, his assistant and my coordinators. Very easy to get along with and has a tremendous amount of talent in his work. He really captured my day just how I imagined it.” -

Where do I begin. Harold was AMAZING!! Harold really took control of the event in efforts to make sure we really got the best pictures possible. He was attentive, on time, and aggressive enough to make sure everyone in the bridal party was doing what they were supposed to but ool enough for everyone to still love him ! He was genuinely there for our best interest and you can tell he loves what he does. It was 100 degrees outside or that’s what’s it felt like anyway in the middle of the day taking pictures, dressed in black and not for one second did he complain or cut our time short because of any sweating or being uncomfortable because god knows we were hot! Instead he made sure he got everything he needed and all the great shots that he thought were necessary to get to assure we have the best wedding photos we could possibly have. He was sensitive to the fact I didn’t want to spend my whole reception taking pictures, however made sure we got sunset pictures and some night time pictures and group family photos but not in an over whelming way. I felt trust in him and the way he was so into getting right angles and making sure little details like a car passing or a person out of place in the background, were out of the way. He was perfect, he made the day seem perfect and he was calm and stress free which made me calm and stress free. I would recommend Harold for ANY event you have because he is the ultimate photographer and really loves what he does. You won’t be disappointed !!!!! -

Amanda Sent on 01/28/2019Made our day better than we could have imagined
So I will be writing 2 reviews. Which I almost never do but I was so excited by the enthusiasm and dedication I was shown I just have to share my experience today before I even get the final photos and video! Now I will start by saying if you are even considering another photographer you are making a huge mistake. After my first meeting I knew I had made the right decision in hiring him for our wedding. He is so friendly & kind and truly cares about you and your dream for your wedding. In our first meeting he mentioned "if you need anything that day you let me know & I will take care of it." Thinking he was joking, I jokingly said "all we're gonna need is a starbucks frap for me & a redbull for him and we'll be able to make it through the day" and wouldn't you know first thing when he got to us he really brought us our drinks! As well as asked if there was anything we needed or forgot and he would run to get it! They were so careful to help us pose each shot and make sure they got every moment of our day. Me and my mother were joking all day that they were nowhere yet everywhere. They weren't in the way of the moments at all yet every time we turned around they were making sure to get photos of everyone, cake, decorations, dancing, every photo we asked for and a million others. Every little detail & special moment of it they were there. And even helped me keep some secrets for a few surprises we had planned through the day. I cannot ever thank them enough for all the work they put in to making our wedding day such an amazingly perfect experience! -

Harold professionally delt with certain obstacles that came up during our event. He had a friendly manner of interacting with our family as if he’d known us for years, especially with the kids. He is very skilled at taking control when necessary but also being available for direction in a friendly manner. We look forward to hiring Harold for capturing future memories. -
Rocio Sent on 10/05/2018Harold is an amazing photographer. He’s available for any event including holiday photo sessions. He is professional and has his customers interest at all times. He takes complete ownership and makes the impossible happen. I used Harold a few times and he’s amazing and makes ever lasting memories.

Ezra Sent on 10/04/2018We used Harold for both our engagement and wedding photos, and couldn’t have been more happy with the end product. Harold was super fun to work with, put everyone in a good mood even when it was freezing outside for our photos, but also was extremely professional while crafting his art. My husband and I highly recommend Harold whenever we are asked!

Alicia Sent on 09/28/2018It’s really hard to put into words how amazing Harold and his team was for our special day! He was beyond attentive, the moment I needed something Harold was there and already knew what I was thinking. He made sure we captured every moment I had planned for and then some! There was even a point where the florist forgot something and I didn’t know about it until after the fact when Harold was the one to get it resolved! I still gush over all the pictures (there are SOOO many) and video. Thank you Harold and Jordan for making our day so special and making sure we have the memories to last a lifetime!

My fiancée and I did our engagement photos with Harold in May 2023, and we were so pleased with our pictures and experience. I am not always comfortable in front of the camera but Harold was great with making me feel so when shooting. He was very willing work with our ideas in addition to have many of his own. Highly recommend him to anyone in the area! -
