Rueben is the best!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Rueben for our engagement photos and wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very beginning, Rueben was incredibly professional and attentive. I had never done a photo shoot before and was very nervous leading up to our engagement photos. Rueben immediately put us at ease with his easy going attitude and coached us through each pose perfectly. His communication and preparation before the wedding was above and beyond. He even showed up to our rehearsal to plan out the next day and get our friends and family familiar with him. During our wedding day, he and his team blended into the background seamlessly for the candids then took charge and organized our big families for the countless posed pictures we asked him to get. We’ve received countless compliments from family and friends about how stunning the photos are. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also genuinely invested in making your day memorable, we wholeheartedly recommend Rueben.

Jason & Neally Soto's wedding

Loose Tie Photography are very good at what they do. When first meeting Ruben I was nervous about what questions to ask, appon meeting him any questions I thought of were answered. When ever I would call with more questions or requests he was very easy to talk to. When we received the photos of our wedding it was more than I've imagined. The photos came out looking amazing of the Venue and Ceremony and the Reception. If ever I need a professional photographer I'm definitely going with Loose Tie Photography.

Rueben with Loose Tie is awesome! I absolutely love when a client comes to me and says that Loose Tie is doing their photography & Videography package. Just knowing that Rueben is on board gives me the peace of mind that everything having to do with the photos will be perfect for my clients. Rueben (and his talented team) photographed my Niece & Nephew's weddings (one year apart) and I still use his photos to advertise on all of my web sites. Did I mention that he also does videography? Sam & Julie's wedding video is a testimonial to how much of his spirit and love he puts into his work- the music and client character he was able to portray in their video reminds me how much I miss that crazy and fun couple! Ruben, I hope we are able to work together again in 2018- I will be sending clients your way...
