    Awesome wedding video!

    We worked with Marcela for our wedding video. She was there the entire day and spent the whole day with the photographer catching footage. She was wonderful to work with and most importantly, our video was amazing. It was over a full hour long (which we were super excited about)! And she also sent over 2 different 'teaser' videos, a 10 min video and a 5 min video. She let us pick the music that was played throughout the video which was special and kind of fun. She also caught a lot of great raw, candid footage that she included in the video which made it feel even more special because we were immersed watching it and it made us feel like we were truly re-living the day. We are so happy we made the decision to go with video and work with Solaris. Thank you!

    Amazing to work with!

    I am so very happy that we found Solaris when searching for our Wedding Photographer! Him and Marcela were quick and great to communicate with throughout planning and also very patient with my uncertainty of what specifics we were wanting in our photos. Solaris was amazing to work with on our wedding day and made the entire process feel natural. Our wedding photo's turned out amazing, I am so happy we chose Solaris to capture our Wedding day!

    Amazing photographer!

    It was not easy planning a wedding from afar. I was recommended going with Solaris for my wedding by another vender. Once I looked at his portfolio, I knew he did great work and wanted to see if he was available for our date. His wife responded to my first email almost immediately. They were quick and professional with all responses to my many questions throughout the planning process.
    On the day of my wedding, Solaris was on time and well prepared for the day. He was kind, professional, and captured our day perfectly. We got our photos back within two weeks, which was great! I could not be happier with his work! I absolutely love all our photos and they’ll serve as beautiful memories of our special day for years to come.
    I would highly recommend Solaris for any event in key West!!

    HIGHLY recommend!

    I was in search of a photographer that I could hire just for the first couple hours of my wedding. I just didn't feel I needed a full night worth of pictures (that makes it harder to chose which ones I want printed!!). Solaris offered a great plan for two hours worth of photography services. From the day I reached out to them in regards to their services, I knew they would be great to work with. Marcela and Solaris are very professional and they kept in touch to the days leading up to my event to ensure me everything was set in place and would be smooth. It was. Solaris was at my wedding before I was even there! He took beautiful pictures and got them to me to view in only a couple of weeks, way sooner than expected. He was easy to get along with and fun to work with. I love my photos from my wedding day, they truly captured everything I love about Key West, including photos of us with a rooster! I will forever look back at these photos and instantly be taken back to this amazing day that we had. I beyond highly recommend Solaris!

    Wonderful experience!

    When I first started researching potential photographers for my destination wedding, I immediately knew I wanted to hire Solaris. The photos I saw were stunning and I reached out right away to inquire if he was available on my wedding date. His wife, Marcela, was also amazing. She always responded promptly to any questions/requests I had. Solaris and Marcela were truly a pleasure to work with and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I am so happy with how my pictures came out, I still look at them all the time! Thank you, Solaris and Marcela, for making our wedding so special! :)

    I cannot compliment this photographer enough. We had an outdoor wedding and after the ceremony we had a storm. Solaris took pictures with umbrellas in the rain. His ingenuity and personality made what could have been a terrible situation into a pleasurable one. His wife Marcela was also our officiant and did an amazing job. Highly recommend this vendor.

    So happy with our wedding photos!

    My husband and I decided to elope in Key West, where we got engaged. We booked an elopement package, and the photography was included, so we didn't actually get a chance to meet Solaris until the day of our wedding. But it turns out, we had seen his work prior to that day and absolutely loved it, so we were very excited when we found out he was going to be our photographer. The photos of our wedding day turned out gorgeous! We couldn't be happier! Not to mention, he is a super nice guy, very chill, easy to talk to, and he made the whole process a breeze. If you're looking for a wedding photographer, I would highly recommend Solaris!

    Solaris and Marcela were great to work with for our destination sunset wedding on April 5th at Ft Zachary Taylor. The first look session was a great recommendation and his dual camera setup was like getting two photographers in one. The beach and sunset pictures will bring back wonderful memories for a very long time.

    We hired Solaris for our December 2nd wedding in Key West and WOW he is an incredible talent. We already received our initial pictures from him and we are blown away. He was everywhere and didn't miss a beat and captured the most beautiful Key West sunset. He was a pleasure to work with and very professional. Our pictures look amazing and our only problem is choosing from all the incredible shots. We can't wait to see his enhancements and our wedding book. Look no further for your Key West Wedding photographer, we HIGHLY recommend.

    We were so happy we chose Solaris as our photographer. From the beginning, Marcela was great to work with - pleasant, helpful, and very responsive. The day of our wedding, Solaris was wonderful. He was patient with my husband who was not fond of having his picture taken, had great ideas of locations and shots to take, and worked in all of our must-have pictures in addition to some last minute ideas that afternoon. In addition to the great experience leading up to and the day of the wedding, photos were shared with us very quickly. We would recommend Solaris to anyone!

    The photos are breathtaking. I knew I chose the right photographer when I looked at his work. He captured so many beautiful moments it will be very hard to chose which ones to frame. Solaris and Marcela are wonderful. I could not be more pleased with the results !

    Solaris was wonderful. we had our wedding on the beach at the casa Marina in Key West. There was intermittent rain which started right after we took the first large batch of photos. The rain didn't prevent Solaris from magnificently capturing our special day. the photographs were amazing, and Solaris was extremely professional and a pleasure to deal with. the post-wedding progression of compiling pics we selected has been smooth as Solaris and Marcella are extraordinary responsive.

    We got married at the Marriott Beachside in Key West on 3.19.16. Solaris and Marcela were amazing throughout our entire process. They took time to talk to us and know exactly what we wanted before the wedding. Solaris was quick and our photos are beyond amazing. I can not thank them both enough for capturing our day perfectly.

    Solaris and his wife were great throughout the entire process. They were responsive, kept us in the loop and were open and friendly. To be honest, I hate taking pictures and he did a great job of making the entire process smooth, natural and none of the pictures felt awkward. We got all of our pictures extremely quickly and they all look perfect! Thank you for everything!

    Photographer met us at the church, offered photo suggestions and worked with our requests as well. Very personable and professional. We only had the photographer shoot photos at the church for an hour. It was a very pleasant experience.

    Solaris did an incredible job with our wedding photos. Very professional and organized. Marcela was equally amazing as our videographer. Solaris and Marcela worked extremely well together as team to ensure that our wedding day was stress free. They are the total package for your wedding day photography and videography. Our photos and video turned out even more beautiful than we could have imagined!

    A LETTER I SENT AFTER I SAW MY PHOTOS

    Solaris,

    It was a pleasure for us to do business with you. You have a great eye and listened to what we wanted. In just the few minutes we talked on the phone and met at the ceremony you did extremely well by us. My wife and I always look to share our positive experiences and with the amount of people we know that have had an interest in doing a renewal like we did YOU will be the one we refer them to. Please feel free to share ANY of the photos or even this email with others that are trying to determine if they would like to hire you for their photos.

    Thank you again for the fantastic job!



    Sincerely,

    Robert Altino

    Both Marcella and Solaris were so easy to work with. Trying to coordinate a wedding from out of state is a little stressful, but they made it so easy and the number of pictures sent to us to choose from was just unbelievable. They were all fantastic.

    Solaris is an amazing photographer. Our wedding was on the point beach at Fort Zachary Taylor. He captured the beautiful scenery and we have some glorious sunset pictures of us and our guests. Solaris is a consummate professional. I can't say enough about how happy we are with the pictures.
