    Wedding pros!

    We got married last month, 10/14/23, and it was the most perfect day. But more importantly I had some of the most perfect vendors, including Rick Blanco Photography. We truly feel the best thing we did in our planning process was hire the best. We only get married once, but Rick and Maria are wedding pros. They truly know what they are doing and they were so kind and helpful, in the whole process. From the decision process, to planning, to wedding day.

    We have the best photos, I couldn't even have imagined them turning out so well. Everything they do has such a personal touch, we had long chats about what shots were important to us, and Maria made sure no shot was missed. They worked so well with our large families, unruly neice and nephews, and really captured our day, it was their eye but our personality. Rick is so talented and made a couple who can be a bit camera shy, shine!!!

    Everything is so personal to us and now getting our images back I'm so excited to have our day captured forever. It really feels like they genuinely captured the day. We even got an amazing personal photo gift in the mail from them today. The whole process has been so easy we really feel like vips. The only thing they can't do is control the weather!!!

    They were incredible

    Genuinely couldn’t have had better photographers. This is the type of vendor you really need to get right. They got incredible shots and Maria helps with so many other things - getting me into my dress, my veil placement, and even running out to the car for my mother in law. We just adored them and the pictures came out magical

    Simply the Best!

    From start to finish, Rick and Maria/Blanco Photography were THE BEST! Right from our first conversation with Maria, it was clear how passionate they were to make our wedding experience as wonderful and memorable as it could possibly be. You aren’t just getting two photographers when you work with Blanco Photography, you’re getting two people who are invested in capturing every moment of your special day and guiding you through each step of the process.
    Maria was there every step of the way to answer all our questions and was always so friendly. The day of our wedding, she not only was a photographer but was always there to make sure everything went smoothly. From helping with a dress hiccup that only Maria knew how to resolve, to coming up with an idea for our flowers during the ceremony, to making sure we got a picture with everyone on our list. She was such a calming presence who was there to help with everything, not just pictures. Based on my experience being in other weddings and feedback from my bridal party, they were blown away by how helpful and amazing Maria was the entire day! I couldn’t agree more!
    Rick was just as fantastic! His sense of humor had everyone smiling and laughing throughout the entire day. He had so many ideas of pictures and moments to capture and kept everyone moving along. During your wedding, things happen so quickly, and you are pulled in a million directions, but Rick made sure every moment was captured so we could relive the day and see anything we missed.
    I wholeheartedly recommend Blanco Photography for any important moment in your life; you will not regret it!

    Best photographer out there!!

    Rick and Maria were honestly the best of the best with everything they did for us from our engagement shoot to the wedding day and the final photos with everything in between! I don’t have a bad word to say at all! They are prompt with responses via email and always willing to schedule a zoom to review things so they can show you every aspect they feel you should see! My husband and I as well as our families are so thankful for all the guidance we got as we moved along with every aspect of picking items and seeing our finished photos. With the way our package was they guided us through every step as needed which was fantastic! Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts!
    XOXO,
    The Hinkles

    Amazing!!!

    Working with Maria and Rick was absolutely amazing! They were so open to ideas from everyone and we're so patient despite the cold temperature and the winds. Every step of the way they were available for answering questions and giving tips.

    Captured the best day of our lives

    Rick and Maria were fantastic to work with. From the first phone call I knew I made the right choice. Worked with our budget and never once did I feel pressured to spend more money than I had the budget for. The day of our wedding they arrived early to make sure everything went off without a hitch. Maria even helped bustle my dress when the time came. Now we have the difficult decision on picking out what pictures we want to keep. There are so many that are just breathtaking. Thank you again for capturing our special day!

    Masterful, professional and fun!

    Not only did Rick and Maria put us at complete ease during the entire photography process, but they captured our day in colors we didn’t even know existed. Not a day goes by that we don’t look at our photos!

    So Grateful for Rick and Maria!

    We had the pleasure of working with Rick and Maria for both our engagement pictures as well as our wedding day. They had a great selection of wedding packages for us to choose from that included a wide variety of options. Our engagement shoot was so comfortable and the pictures turned out so beautiful. On our wedding day, Rick and Maria saved us! We were calling them our “Mom and Dad” because we needed them to help us coordinate what we needed, what we didn’t even know we needed, and so much more. Maria even brought an emergency kit for our wedding day and was able to create a bustle for me on my wedding dress since we weren’t able to find it!! They both were very fun and very professional and we can’t wait to use them again in the future!

    Excellent personalized Experience

    We hired Rick and his wife to photograph our wedding at Yellow Springs in June 2020.
    I can't speak highly enough of what they brought to our day. We had so many challenges with Covid and having the event outdoors. They went above and beyond, helping to plan the event and making sure we captured all the moments we would want to cherish.
    They were affordable, reliable, and personable to my wife and I, our guests, and months after the wedding in selecting and producing media from the footage they took.
    You won't go wrong with them!

    Blanco Photography are Truly Amazing!

    When i was planning our wedding my venue referred us to Blanco Photography. They are a husband and wife team that go above and beyond to make you feel like you are the only one getting married, They always returned my e-mails promptly and they were so professional. We just received a gallery of wedding photos and they are all so beautiful. When you are planning your wedding it always seems to be a little stressful. But having Blanco photography for my wedding was the best decision i made! They have to be rated the Best !!
    Thank You Again! Karen and Jack

    Incredible Wedding Photographer!

    Rick Blanco Photography is a husband-and-wife team of wedding photographers, this creative couple behind this business absolutely loves capturing once-in-a-lifetime moments, we are so happy we had them as our photographers. Rick is a fun detail-oriented and creative photographer who is enthusiastic about capturing all of the big and small moments absolutely amazing! Maria is sweet, very professional, and communicative, we went over what was most important to be captured on our wedding day, we filled out a questionnaire sent to us by e-mail and filled out exactly what moments we wanted to capture and all the wedding day information. On the day of the wedding, Rick captured every moment and more.... amazing talent to visualize photos. I love all the directions he gave us; he makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. I cannot say enough good things...absolutely incredible! Rick was our photographer, and his kindness and calm personality made our day so much easier. He has a way of making those nerves go away, one of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Rick as our photographer his professionalism and skill truly stands out and he knows how to pull together a large group while still having fun! after our big day I had guest complimenting me on him. Rick worked so hard the day of our wedding and we are forever grateful!!

    The Blancos are incredible. Not only did they capture every special moment in exquisite beauty, they made the day run seamlessly.

    We are so thankful to have had the Blancos. They kindly accommodated our date change, twice due to Covid. They made the entire process seamless. The kept the day flowing in a timely and organized manner. They are sweet, funny and extremely professional. And the pictures are incredible. Our venue, florist and hair/makeup crew have all asked if they could use them. Easily magazine worthy photos.

    Fantastic!

    From start to finish, Rick and Maria were incredible and the perfect choice for wedding photographers. They quickly and clearly communicated every detail and worked with us to gather all of the information necessary to create a stunning collection of unforgettable moments captured in their photography. They were highly professional and helped us with everything from choosing photo locations to exactly how we should pose and where we should stand. The resulting photos are far and away the best of me, my husband, our families, and our friends that we have!

    Magazine worthy wedding photos

    Maria was really great to work with, especially before our wedding day! She had a ton of great advice and spent hours on the phone with us to help plan out the timeline for the day. What really impressed me was that Maria went above and beyond when we had to completely change our wedding because of Covid-19. She even helped us select our new venue, which we ended up liking more than our original venue! I never had any doubt, stress or anxiety going into our wedding day after all our conversations with Maria. My best advice for working with Rick and Maria is to make sure that you really take the time to provide them with details and examples of photos that are important to you... they listen and will make sure to follow through!! Our photos turned out beautifully. Rick captured all the details of our wedding day, even the small ones. I think they truly specialize in couple photos, we have some really artistic ones of the two of us on our wedding day! Our friends and family keep saying that some of the shots look like should be featured in a magazine! The album turned out beautifully and their photo portal is easy to use. We really appreciate how much time and effort Rick and Maria put into our wedding day

    Fantastic photographers and overall great experience!

    We absolutely love our wedding photos! Rick and Maria walked us through the entire experience. They met with us several times to help us plan out our timeline for the big day. The day of our wedding, Rick and Maria knew just what to do and captured all the moments we were looking for. Very professional and helpful through the entire experience.

    Friendly and great photographers

    Due to the unpredictable pandemic, my fiancé and I decided to postpone our big wedding to next fall and just have a very small ceremony the year with a few key family members in attendance. We didn’t want to let COVID-19 ruin our day and it didn’t. Rick and Maria were amazingly responsive, caring, and flexible with our new arrangements. During the consultation, Maria was very sympathetic to the situation and put my mind immediately at ease. The day of the wedding, Rick and Maria came to our home to take pictures and honestly they were so warm and friendly, all my nervousness fell by the wayside. It was as if we were reuniting with old friends. I cannot thank them enough for all their responsiveness, kindness, and professionalism throughout the whole process. I highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you Rick and Maria, we will never forget that special day and the pictures will be cherished forever!

    A Master At Their Craft

    Blanco photography has so far done nothing but impress us! We sat down and met with Rick and Maria and with all the knowledge and experience they have, we knew they were the right fit. They were very detailed in everything they offered. We had our engagement shoot which was very well planned and coordinated. Rick pointed us in every right direction and pose. And after seeing some of our photos they took, we were very impressed. We made the right decision choosing Blanco Photography.

    Amazing photographer couple with amazing work!

    Maria and Rick are amazing! We have looked into other photographers and when my fiancé and I found Maria and Rick, we were blessed! They have amazing work and it shows through the pictures they have done for us but also what they display! They work well as a team! They are very professional, outgoing, very organized and for the price, you get amazing things! When we left the studio after meeting them for the first time, my fiancé and I knew right away, they were the ones to make our wedding memorable! I would Highly recommend them for a photographer. They have great communication, value your time, very professional but also fun to make you comfortable and enjoy your pictures but also unbelievably amazing work! I can’t say enough about these two and definitely will be using them again for my future maternity pictures! If your looking for quality and stunning work and someone to feel comfortable with to have trust in your pictures, I would definitely book with Maria and Rick Blanco Photographer! 💕

    Outstanding...

    Rick and Maria are an outstanding photography duo! We selected them as our wedding photographer in August 2020. From the first meeting they listened to our desires, made great suggestions, and always had wonderful communication! They were very punctual on our day and were well prepared for summer rain showers as well! Their experience is top notch and it shines through in their photography! Reach out to them...they're a class act!!

    Absolutely Incredible!!!

    From the very first time we spoke up until our Wedding Day both Rick & Maria made us feel confident and secure. With 2020 being the year that no one will forget, we were forced to make some changes while shifting our wedding around. It so happened that we needed to adjust photographers as well and we are beyond blessed to have come across this couple. We made the change six weeks prior to our big day, Rick & Maria stepped in and we were immediately blown away. They were reliable, professional, personable and their work is incredible. They captured every meaningful moment and it went beyond the photos. Rick & Maria are there assisting at every turn, ensuring you remain calm on your special day. With wardrobe malfunctions there is no need to worry because Rick & Maria have everything needed to fix on the spot. This talented couple can control large groups and get everyone on the same page (which was challenging for our party), making the photos priceless. Words cannot describe their dynamic duo approach, creativity, and expertise. We are extremely grateful to have come across them and look forward to working with them on future events.

    Helped us in a ponch

    Rick and Maria were a last minute recommendation due to some unforeseen circumstances with our original photographer. We have to say, they were amazing! Extremely professional, courteous, and the pictures are fantastic. We would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for a photographer.
    Thank you for the great quality and professionalism that you showed!

    Absolutely the best!

    We loved working with Rick and Maria, they did an awesome job capturing our wedding. They were more than just our photographer, they provided so much help with our save the dates and wedding invitations. So creative with photos and we absolutely love them.

    I was so amazed how prepared for any situations a bride & groom needed, from helping me get into my dress, quick stitching of my dress, had to glue of one of the groomsmen boutinerr pins back together, had every need covered. They made our day so easy, fun and were beyond happy on how great our photos are.

    We highly recommend them, again they are so much more than our photographer.
