    Welcome Party Photography

    Provoke was the BEST photography for our Wedding Welcome Party! Helena was a true professional that was extremely pleasant to work with. From the moment she arrived, she told us exactly what to do in a quick and efficient manner. For context, my husband and I have zero idea what to do when it comes to taking pictures, but Helena told us exactly what to do (in a kind and approachable way) She was also open to our suggestions and captured all of the pictures we wanted. Helena is very timely and attentive- she captured all of the details, friends, family and loved ones. I can’t recommend her enough! We will have these memories forever, thanks to Provoke!

    A DREAM photographer!!

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Helena! She is such a sweet, giving soul and is so passionate about her work, which really shows in her photos. She makes taking pictures so natural and easy, which is such a relief on the most eventful (and slightly nerve-wracking) day of your life. She took every photo I wanted and so many more I didn't know I wanted but so glad I have. I really appreciated the detail she put into capturing great photos and even including the silly/emotional/candid ones that I really loved. She was such a joy to work with, all of my family and bridal party were so impressed. She really dedicates her time to you, even way before the event trying to help guide you in your vision (which I definitely needed help with). She is such a gem of a person and will capture your day/event even more beautiful than you could ever picture it. I cannot not recommend her enough!

    Provoke Photography is absolutely the best

    I am so very happy I got to work with Helena. When I was looking for photographers she was the one that stood out to me the most. Her photos were so breathtaking! Not only does she have an incredible portfolio but she herself is incredible. With me or my husband having no experience with taking photos, she gave amazing direction, makes you feel extremely comfortable, and has such a great eye. She got our photos back to us so fast! I was not even expecting it. I am still getting compliments from everyone on how beautifully she captured our day. I will be recommending her to all my friends and family because she really is the best.

    The Best Purchase for Our Wedding

    I am so thrilled we hired Helena. She was very professional and affordable and most importantly she is extremely talented. Our pictures were beyond my wildest dreams. I am so thrilled and she didn't take too long to edit them as well (within 8 weeks-). I have friends who paid 3x or more what I did for worse pictures that took 4-6 months to get back. I couldn't recommend Helena more and tell all my friends in southern Florida that they NEED to book her.

    In love with our photos!

    I've been in the events industry for over 8 years and was very particular with what I wanted in a photographer. It's more than pretty pictures. From the first phone call with Helena, I was certain she would be it. She was professional and warm and really listened to how I wanted my day captured. She right away sent me a follow up email with general timeline based on our discussion and it was clear we were on the same page. Then came time for our engagement photos which became a saga due to a combination of Covid closures and weather issues. Throughout the 3 postponements, she stayed in contact with me and put me at ease, reassuring me she was on top of things. Once we were in our session she made us feel so comfortable and relaxed - it was fun! Lastly, the photos were gorgeous! Not overly artsy, but just enough to make you feel all the feels while still feeling natural and candid. The wedding day came and the same can be said. We stuck to the timeline and captured all the shots we wanted and the end results left us breathless.

    Provoke Photography's reply:

    Hey! Thank you so much for your beautiful words and for taking the time to leave a review. It was so great meeting you both and our wedding vision was absolutely gorgeous. Seriously, both of you have such big hearts, and I didn't have to know you for long to see that. Wishing you both the very best now and always!

    THE BEST Photographer

    Helen, of Provoke Photography, is an incredible artist and photographer! I have had the pleasure of working with Helen for many different occasions. She is my go-to for all my photography needs and has photographed my Engagement, Wedding, and Holiday photo as well my professional business photos. She has an amazing eye and the gift of turning even my living room into the most wonderful backdrop. She is a patient photographer and makes you feel very comfortable in front of the camera. She has made every session a breeze and helped me with everything from picking outfits to posing for wonderful shots. During my wedding, she went above and beyond and helped arrange last minute flower garlands and decor! Thanks Helen! I recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing photographer!

    Detailed and Thoughtful

    Not only do her website and social media pages speak for themselves in terms of quality for her body work, she herself is an absolute joy to work with! Double the winning combination. She moved around the venue with purpose and was respectful to other vendors. She worked so well with our videographer and helped me personally with last minute planning. Her knowledge of the wedding industry is vast and every bride would benefit from her experiences. Above that, she has the eye- she knows the shot and she will get it. You will look back at your pictures and immediately be transported to the joy and magic you felt on your special day. Helena’s photography does that to you. 10/10 recommend.

    Stunning photos!!!

    Our wedding photos are A DREAM COME TRUE! From the first moment I met Helena, I knew that she was the one that would capture the best day of our lives, and boy... did she! She is so sweet, reliable, responsive, and makes you feel sooo comfortable! She is someone you always want to be around, and we seriously could have not picked a better photographer.

    She captured every moment of our wedding so perfectly, from the details, to the smile and tears; she didn't miss a beat! I find myself looking at my pictures over and over and I can't help but smile knowing that these moments will be cherished forever.

    Provoke Photography did not disappoint, and I am happy to say that I will always have a friend in Helena. We cannot thank her enough for the memories she captured.

    Stop searching and choose Provoke Photography, you will not regret it!

    Thank you so much!
    Love, Melanie and Raul

    Best photographer ever!

    Having your photos taken can be so nerve-racking (at least for me) but Helena made my husband and I feel SO comfortable! Not only did the pictures turn out absolutely BREATHTAKING, but Helena made the entire experience a very, very enjoyable one. Nothing felt forced, everything felt so natural and she did such an amazing job capturing our true essence. She is so creative and so passionate about what she does! She arrived early, was extremely diligent and professional, while still being her fun, bubbly self. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! I promise you'll regret NOT hiring her because she is the BEST!!! If I could leave her 100 stars I would :) We can't thank you enough Helena!

    Stunning photographs

    From the first time we met Helena, we knew she had to be our wedding photographer. She is so passionate about what she does and her photographs are absolutely flawless. My husband and I are a bit shy but she made it quick and painless! We were so thrilled with the pictures from our engagement session and couldn't wait for the wedding pictures. She truly did not disappoint. On wedding day, we were pressed for daylight and time for pictures due to a delay but Helena made it work. She took the most stunning pictures of us with a limited amount of time. She also made sure to include all of our family and friends. She didn't miss a beat at our wedding and we are so grateful for the timeless memories. We look forward to working with Helena again.

    Helena was absolutely amazing! She was recommended to me by a friend and I wish I had known about her sooner. We did an engagement session with her, we were even able to include our dog, and I was so impressed. She was so patient with us, gave such great tips on how to pose, found a great location and made sure we got every single shot we wanted. She got our photos back to us extremely fast and I love every single one of them. I highly recommend her, if I need any pictures in the future she will be the first one I go to.

    One of the most amazing wedding photographers on this planet!

    Our wedding was an absolute fairytale, in large part thanks to Helena and Provoke Photography! Not only was she our amazing, creative, organized, fun, funny, confident photographer (all such important qualities) since our engagement shoot, she also helped direct our entire wedding day so that everything ran as smoothly and perfectly as possible. The understanding of what is most important in a wedding along with the creative vision behind her lens is evident in every magical shot she captures. We will never have enough words to thank her for so beautifully capturing the best day of our lives!

    Trust Helena

    Helena truly made me feel so comfortable - not only in front of the camera with her talent of capturing amazing moments, but behind it with her constant professionalism. She did both our engagement photos and wedding photos - and both experiences went amazing. At our engagement photo, it wasn't just photographer and client - we had an early dinner together and just talked; she is that easy going that you feel like you've been friends with her for years. When she says "trust me" TRUST HER cause those photos will come out perfect.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    My wedding was one of the happiest days of my life, and if I did nothing else right, I hired Helena @ Provoke Photography. Knowing that the one thing you can take away from your wedding are your photos, I knew that I had to have the best.
    I am finding it difficult to express in words how eternally thankful and grateful I am for Helena. She gave me the wedding photos I always dreamed of and more. I can look back at my photos every day for the rest of my life and smile; knowing that Helena was able to capture the details and the faces, the smiles, the tears and everything in between.
    We met with her in person to discuss what we were looking in a photographer and what she can offer us. We went over everything in detail and I always felt like I knew exactly what I was getting. I trusted her, and she did not fail me.
    I am not a model and neither is my husband, so if you tell us to pose, we don’t know what to do. I was never nervous about where to stand or how to smile because Helena had it all under control. We received many photos with different unique locations and poses, so the pictures all feel fresh and different.
    Helena was always so responsive, and helped us complete a timeline to make sure we were able to get all the shots (getting ready, first look, groomsmen, bridesmaids, family shots). The delivery of the photos is wonderful and easy to access, and photos were delivered in a timely fashion.
    I look back at my photos in disbelief that we were able to capture so much in so little time. I look back and wonder how that could even be me, I look so beautiful.
    I cannot thank Helena enough, as I have forever captured in such a beautiful way, my family, old and new. My new husband, our genuine nervousness, our excitement, it is all there.
    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

    very talented!!

    My best friend used Helena for her engagement pictures and was raving about her, once I saw them, I fell in love and had to use her for my wedding pictures. It was a simple courthouse wedding and she captured it beautifully, she’s a true artist. I’ve worked with her a couple times and have been happy every time!!

    I HAD TO have Helen for my wedding. I have been admiring her work for a very long time and was so happy to know she would be capturing our love through her lens. The photos are even better than I imagined they would be. She is so talented! She captured every emotion so beautifully. Her attention to detail and her passion for her work really come across in her photos. Thank you Helen!!

    Helena is the BEST in Miami!

    I am SO GLAD I went with Helena of Provoke Photography to photograph my wedding day. She creates magic behind the camera and her photos are stunning! She was super professional, organized, patient with me and all the wedding craziness that goes on. She made sure she captured everything I asked for. She was there the entire time and captured all the special moments of our day. I continue to this day to get so many compliments on our wedding photos and I would be SO HAPPY to recommend her to any bride and groom looking for a photographer for their special day. Thank you, Helena!! We adore you!!

    Helena is an incredibly gifted photographer as well as a truly special human being. She can capture not just the perfect angle or the loveliest light, but also the unspoken feelings, the moods and flow of energy between a couple like no one else. Her photos have a romantic, ethereal fairytale like quality to them; most of all, her photos filled with pure love!

    I met Helena through the recommendation of a friend of mine, a photographer as well. I was drawn to the "feel" of her pictures. Helena was so easy to work with right from the start. She was communicative, reliable, and punctual to the engagement photo shoot and on wedding day. She took the time to get to know me and my husband, so working with her on wedding day was a breeze. She was like a helpful friend. Her and her second shooter worked efficiently and made sure we got all of the shots we wanted.

    I am absolutely in love with the final pictures, which she had finished quickly. She captured the exact look we were hoping for, and we couldn't be more happy. I have already recommended her to friends, and I look forward to working again with her in the future.

    Helena was my wedding photographer and I cannot say enough amazing things about her. Not only are her photography skills incredible, but she is also the kindest person. She has the best patience (especially when my now husband does not want to cooperate for engagement pics) and always knows the best ways to make us laugh, smile, or be serious and lovey. We received our wedding photos so quickly and the moments she captured were perfect. Her second shooter Megan was also amazing, so funny, and a pleasure to work with. I recommended her to a friend for newborn baby photos and these too were phenomenal. I am so happy to have found her and look forward to working with her again in the future.

    Where to begin!! We (I) actually booked Helena before I was even engaged because I knew she would be the one to capture our special moments! She is absolutely amazing at what she does! Working even better under the pressures of such a day to capture the very best and most gorgeous photos! We have only received the sneak peeks and are already in love! We can’t wait to see the rest. We will definitely be using her for our future life moments! We love you Helena!!
