Five stars all around for Santiago! He recently took photos for our family of 21 and was incredibly patient, friendly, and professional from start to finish. He didn't rush us at all, went above and beyond by staying for over an hour, and even gave us more edited photos than we originally agreed on. The pictures turned out amazing. Highly recommend his services!

Santiago is an absolute legend. He’s extremely thorough, kind and professional. My wife and I are so grateful we stumbled upon him on thumbtack. He was everywhere capturing every moment and very meticulous, adjusting her ring or my boutonnière. It was an absolute pleasure working with him. Would recommend to anyone for any event. His prices are inexpensive for the service he provides.
Details: Wedding • Fewer than 25 guests • Indoors • Physical proofs or prints

Santiago was great to work with! He responded very quickly to my request & questions and showed up on time to make sure everything was all set for my daughter's engagement pics. he did a great job capturing the moments with the couple, then with everyone there. he then spent time with the couple around the Bell tower. the pics look awesome! He was reasonable and we received edited pics and extra non-edited pics. I would definitely recommend Santiago. I would hire him again!

Santiago was absolutely amazing! From the very start, he made us feel so comfortable and at ease, which made the entire experience genuinely enjoyable. The photos turned out beautiful — better than we could have imagined — and truly captured us so naturally. He’s incredibly talented, professional, and a joy to work with. We couldn’t be happier with our pictures and would recommend him to anyone looking for an incredible photographer!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Prices are different and may vary, depending on assignment since they're all so unique. I have fixed photo packages, and sometimes customized.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I typically like to get to know my new clients through a conversation and/or questionnaire that will allow me to get to know their goals for the photoshoot. After that I'll send over an estimate based off your needs and we can customize the estimate as you'd like. I'm fairly open to creating a custom package for each customer since every situation/client is different.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been shooting a variety of photography and video professionally for the last 6 years. I've been hired to shoot not only personal projects, but also events for some companies or organizations.
