    BOOK THEM- had the most fun experience

    Neither my fiance or I love taking pictures however we wanted to get photos done since we were recently engaged and Stiven and his wife made the process SO FUN!! We truly had a blast, couldn’t stop laughing, and can’t stop talking about how great of an experience it was. The photos came out stunning and the two of them captured the moments so well. Will cherish these photos forever! LOVED WORKING WITH THIS PAIR and couldn’t recommend them more highly!

    We contracted Stiven to be the photographer for our wedding. It was one of the best decisions we made!!!

    I absolutely would recommend Stiven to anyone looking for exceptional wedding photos. Stiven was professional, kind and honest! Stiven was able to capture our wedding with all of the beauty and love that we feel for each other. He was able to purposefully set up photos with the most beautiful results! The photos were above and beyond what we could have wished for and are so glad we found Stiven!

    BEST Aruba photographer to capture your special day

    Stiven photographed my Aruba wedding and I cannot recommend him enough! Planning a destination wedding can be stressful, but Stiven put our minds at ease with his professionalism, his portfolio of work, and his overall fun and positive demeanor. He knows all the best shots to get (sunsets, floating veil, first look), gave excellent direction and did it all with a smile on his face. We are obsessed with the photos and would love to use Stiven again in the future.

    Stiven Sanchez Photography's reply:

    Thank you!
    You guys are AMAZING, everything went so smoothly and the Sunset was the best.
    could not be any happier with the results.

    Wedding Day 3-2-2024

    Stiven and his wife were amazing to work with on our Wedding Day. They had such amazing energy & told us fun poses to do! My husband doesn't love being photographed but they made him super comfortable. My dad and his wife are going to return to do a post wedding shoot on his charter boat in the near future. We got sample photos about 3 days after the wedding which was super cool since we were so eager to see them!

    Stiven Sanchez Photography's reply:

    Unbelievable pictures! Above and beyond attitude!

    Stiven brought so much fun and laughter to our wedding day! From the moment we arrived on the island and met with him, we knew his work would be amazing! His personality is captivating and you instantly know how passionate he is about capturing your most important moments, all while making you feel like you’ve known him for years! We have only seen a handful of our photos so far (our wedding was last week) but the ones we have seen are absolutely breathtaking! We truly look forward to spending many more years with Stiven capturing our lives best moments in our happy place, Aruba!

    Working with Stiven was fantastic

    My husband and I had a wonderful experience working with Stiven. While preparing for the wedding, Stiven and his team were very easy to communicate with. We made several adjustments to our photography timeline and he was quick to accommodate us.

    The wedding day went perfectly. Stiven was all over the place, making sure to capture every moment. The sneak peek photos we’ve seen have been incredible. If you get the chance to work with Stiven we highly recommend it!

    Fun engagement photos

    We did our engagement photos with Stiven in Aruba. My fiance did not want to get cheesy engagement photos, so we agreed half the session would be of us tubing out on the ocean. Stiven totally leaned into our idea and took some amazing photos, which are also hilarious. We also got some typical "couple" photos which turned out great. Stiven is a very nice guy, so easy to work with, very chill, and fun! We had a few photos to look at the next day, and the whole album within a week. We hired Stiven for our wedding when we go back in January, really looking forward to working with him again.

    AMAZING PHOTOS + Flexibility, understanding and creative

    Wow I can't speak highly enough of Steven and his team they created the most amazing photos and the best experience possible. My groom doesn't like taking photos so we opted to do an adventure shoot two days after our event and I can't wait to see these photos!! Stieven took us to breathtaking areas on the island and captured the true essence of Aruba's natural beauty. To top it off my dad also surprised me by hiring their team for 360 photo booth which was THE highlight of my guest's night not to mention the amazing photographs that he took of the entire wedding. Stieven was never far behind me or busy for an OH WAIT WE HAVE TO DO THIS moment.... He followed my bridal party into the water and made the best out of the lighting.

    I will post my official photos as soon are I get back from my honeymoon, but let me tell you these are AMAZING.

    Also, if you need help with other things for your wedding he's helpful with finding vendors and arranging a little razzle dazzle... he helped me with a limo to pick up our bridal party and included champagne for a great little toast.

    Stiven Sanchez Photography's reply:

    Dear Meagan,

    We cannot thank you Enough For All your kind Words We loved making your Vision come to life All the Pictures Came out Amazing And some more on the Way! can't Wait! hope to see you soon.team

    Excellent!!! We love Stiven

    Stiven and his crew were SO accommodating, kind, and efficient. They picked us up from our resort for a sunset shoot and we went straight to Arashi Beach to take pics near the crashing waves and cacti. Then we hopped over to Tres Trapi where Stiven made our wedding-photoshoot dreams come true. He was able to take incredible pictures of me and my wife jumping into the water at sunset after saying our vows! We are so happy with our pictures and had so much fun.

    Stiven Sanchez Photography's reply:

    Thank you Ladies soooo muchhh it was one of a Kind shoot and the sunet was just amazing it matched with your Vows.
    We are just inlovee with the results! cant wait to show the world, ly Girls

    Best elopement photoshoot EVER!!

    Stiven and his lovely family+colleagues, specifically Paola and Sandra, are the greatest team of wedding photographers in the most beautiful locations! I couldn’t recommend them any higher than outright saying don’t book with anyone else if your wedding or elopement is in Aruba! We will certainly come back for anniversaries and every other landmark events for our soon to be expanded family. In our shoot we felt comfortable and heard in our expectations for our vision for our elopement album. This team has an unmatched artistic eye on every front and their work (and speed!) speaks for itself.

    Stiven Sanchez Photography's reply:

    Dear Josephine,

    Thank you sooo much for your amazing words we cannot put into words how Unique your Elopment Photos are, we can feel the love thankyou!

    My experience with Stiven was amazing

    I can’t say enough good things about Stiven and his team. He truly went out of his way to make me feel comfortable and beautiful. His warm, kind personality made everyone smile and relax. His photos are beyond breath taking and I can’t wait to see all of them. He took the time to sit with my husband and I to get an understanding of our vision and came up with the idea to do a first look with my father and I know I will cherish those photos forever. There is really no other option for a photographer in Aruba, if you want the best experience and the best photos Stiven is it. Thank you Stiven for all you did !
