    Alfonso was a wonderful photographer. Willing to listen to and capture any shots we wanted. Also very timely at getting photos to us. He was part of the package with our wedding planner and I am very satisfied with what I received.

    Alfonso was very positive and energetic for our wedding ceremony on the beach. He met us after our honeymoon to give us all of our photos on a thumbdrive and now we have our photos full rights and everything. He truly was fabulous and was able to tolerate all of our large group and their individual photo demands too.

    Don't think twice & trust in Mr. Idoate!!!

    From beginning to end Mr. Idoate brought so much positivity, enthusiasm, joy, fun, professionalism & class to our wedding day. My wife and I got married at "El Conquistador" in Fajardo, Puerto Rico in 7/21/16 as a destination wedding.

    Mr. Idoate made our wedding day a much enjoyable, heartfelt & wonderful experience. He's without a doubt professional, and makes you feel as if he truly is part of your family. From beginning to end he took command and made us feel as if he truly cared for every photo shot he took. Mostly, because he was really friendly with our family and friends, and made us feel comfortable, as a well seasoned photographer. He's expertise shows. I could tell he really enjoys his profession and takes pride in it. He continuously suggested photo ideas that were intimate, fun, joyful, crazy, detailed, captivating...and was even willing to jump in the pool with swimming trunks, just to take that special photo of when my wife and I TOOK THE POOL PLUNGE at midnight, to cool off and as a farewell to our guests. This type of dedication and service is unrivaled, and for this I thank you for being there for us on our special day and going the extra mile...just to take that one photo shot that forever will be in our hearts.

    So, Mr. Idoate...From my wife & myself...Again, Thank you for being patient and witnessing you enjoy our wedding as much as we did...was a gift to us. We are both lucky to have you been part of our wedding day. The photos are memorable & spectacular!!

    One big hug, and God Bless.

    Gilberto.

    Alfonso was amazinggggg for our wedding! It was just the two of us on a beach in Puerto Rico. He captured our silly selves, and made us laugh the morning away. He was professional, yet a total jokester....just what a bride wants on a day that could make her nervous. Her captured some amazing moments that I had no idea he was even getting. Huge thank you to Alfonso for some amazing photography and an overall fun day!

    Alfonso was great. We met on our wedding day and shot photos from the time we stepped out of the vehicle to the time we stepped back in. He was very professional and attentive to what we wanted. He actually delivered our photos to the resort we stayed at. A+ in my book! Thank you Alfonso! Job well don!

    Alfonso was recommended to us by Rev. Santana our officiant. I went on Wedding wire and looked at his reviews and his website. We were renewing our vows so it was not a wedding and did not want to pay the prices that other photographers wanted for a wedding package. Alfonso was perfect for our situation. He was very friendly and took beautiful pictures. He had our pictures in drop box the next day and stopped at our condo and dropped off our CD. Would absolutely recommend Alfonso.

    Alfonso was our wedding photographer in Puerto Rico. He is very skilled and talented, using great techniques and offering suggestions for poses and content that made the resulting pictures very memorable.

    Instead of prints, we requested an electronic set of photographs. Alfonso provided the photos in an online "drop box" so we could have a set of the raw images the following day. He also enhanced, cropped, and otherwise refined the images and then sent us a disc of the final product.

    He was fun, professional, and great to work with!

    Alfonso provided us with absolutely beautiful pictures for our destination wedding. with the wind blowing my hair all over the place he knew just where to position me so that it was not an issue on the pictures. He was very personable and knowledgeable. all of the pictures are my favorite hard to tell which one looks the best they are all gorgeous. The only thing i would have like to have was an album to put my pictures in, but that is minor and we did get our pictures the very next day on a CD. So all in all he was great!

    Alphonso was recommended by our officiant, Rev. Santana. We are glad to have Alphonso take our wedding photographs for us. We had a beach wedding and with a near gale wind blowing (ha, ha) he still managed to poise us and control a blowing veil. He also found very nice backgrounds to poise us in front of. If your like me you have problems closing eyes and not smiling, tell Alphonso ahead of time. He has a digital camera, ask him to review each shot for such problems. Ask him to look for these issues and retake if needed.

    Alfonso was hired by our wedding planner so our first meeting was the day of the wedding. He was very professional. He knew the perfect ways to pose. He was a very knowledgeable photographer. Our wedding was a destination wedding so we received the pictures after returning home. The pictures were placed in an album and we also received a cd with all the pictures. Alfonso Idoate was perfect for our wedding.

    Enjoyed having Alfonso take my pictures. Liked the poses and how he got the most intimate moments of my ceremony. Made our beach wedding look gorgeous.
