Emily and Misael Oropesa Wedding 4/13
I booked Melissa for photography and video, it was an absolute dream. Me and my husband felt like we were having a photoshoot for Vogue haha. She makes you and fixes every detail to make you look your best on wedding day! She is quick and gets her job done perfectly, her angles and she hears
out your concerns. She was my fairytale Godmother on my wedding day from fixing my hair getting down to fix my dress/veil etc. She really is passionate and is amazing and the biggest sweetheart. Her energy is very calming and you need that on wedding day. Me and my husband enjoyed being with her and had an amazing time.I booked Melissa for photography and video, it was an absolute dream.

Amazing, you will no regret having this team by your side on your big day!
Melissa and her team were absolutely AMAZING and I can't say that enough. The planning and prep for this big day is extensive and goes on for months before, but it goes by so quickly and your pictures and video is the only thing that truly stays with you. I am overjoyed with our decision to go with Melissa and Javier and the rest of their team. They guided us but were not pushy. They adjusted our hair, poses, and gave us recommendations. A few DAYS before the wedding I texted her to ask if there was any way of adding another photographer (super short notice!), and she made it happen.
When Melissa first arrived to the bridal suite, the first thing she did was ask simple questions that could have caused some ackwardness throughout the day, such as "are your parents together", are we doing pictures with this person?, I noticed that certain robes were different colors- are we doing pictures with them together with your bridesmaides or seperate?" Small details that, in the moment when there is so much going on and so many emotions, you yourself don't think of. I cannot explain how much I appreciated that. It made everything flow so well.
As the day went on I was already so happy with our decision, and I hadn't even seen the pictures. But WOW when they came through (which was in 2 weeks by the way!). We have gorgeous memories and we are so grateful. I would and will recommend Melissa and her team for any events that you may have.
They are reasonably priced, and again, before even seeing our pictures, my husband and I were already agreeing that they were worth every single penny. Not ONCE did we regret our decision. Of course we have posed pictures, but we have so many natural "candid" pictures. And, although of course we were the main focus that day, they also captured so many pictures of our guests having an amazing time!! That was a big deal for me because our guests obviously played a big role on our special day.
Thank you Melissa and the rest of the team, you have given us the ability to look back on our pictures/ video of that day and have us smiling and laughing and we are forever grateful for that.Melissa and her team were absolutely AMAZING and I can't say that enough.

Far exceeded our expectations
Melissa was hands down the best vendor we hired for our wedding. The photos were beautiful, and captured so many moments. She had great advice on shots, and were stunning. We are so grateful that we trusted her to photograph our wedding. She was professional, quick, and thoughtful.Melissa was hands down the best vendor we hired for our wedding.

Amazing team!
Melissa is the sweetest person and relaxes you to the point of calmness. Our wedding shots (over 600 pics) we’re ready and edited within 5 days. It was amazing to sit on our honeymoon looking at the shots. I can’t wait to see Javier version of the day through the video lens!Melissa is the sweetest person and relaxes you to the point of calmness.

Melissa (the lead photographer and owner) and her husband (the lead videographer of Captivated films and owner) are an amazing duo. They are easy to work with, flexible, professional and really listen to the bride and groom's vision while providing their professional/creative recommendation. Aside from executing the day-of perfectly, their post-production team is absolutely fantastic; they were patient, worked quickly, responsive, and were extremely accommodating - huge thanks to Victoria and Daniela!
Also wanted to point out that their second shooters are very talented. I was just as happy with the level of work in the second shooter's shots which is a huge plus.
Aside from the beautiful pictures and videos, the price was very reasonable and by far the best value I was able to find.
Highly recommend them!

Must hire wedding photographer and videographer!
Simply Captivating was recommended to us by several friends. During the planning process, we would see vendors faces light up after finding out we had hired them for our wedding. Melissa and Javier are such a sweet and dynamic duo! They were easy to work with, professional, punctual, efficient, and made us feel relaxed on our wedding day. We wanted shots with everyone, and Melissa managed to bring everyone to us so we could enjoy our evening. I couldn't recommend them enough. Thank you!

Vicky from Captivating Collective is amazing!
Vicky from Captivating Collective is absolutely fantastic! We used Vicky for our engagement and wedding photos. For our engagement session, she was patient and efficient since it was very hot and humid. She even waited while we went back to our house to change outfits, touch up, and dry my hair (that’s how hot it was and how sweaty I got at our first location) before our second outfit/location shoot. We got our pictures back in three days and they were all amazing! I needed some small edits due to some skin blemishes and she quickly fixed them to my liking. For our wedding, her and her husband (second shooter) were a great team. They followed the timeline we created together and made sure to get the important shots I requested. Vicky even helped me bustle my dress after the ceremony since I couldn’t find my bridesmaids at that moment. She did a fast and great job making sure I was taken care of. They got a bunch of amazing shots and most of the time I didn’t even realize they were around. On the dance floor, they did a great job of capturing the fun moments without being intrusive. Vicky got my wedding photos back to me in 3 days and they all looked amazing!!! I highly recommend Captivating Collective and Vicky as your photographer!Vicky from Captivating Collective is absolutely fantastic! We used Vicky for our engagement and wedding photos.

Best South Florida Wedding Photographer!
Melissa is just amazing. She is so sweet to work with, makes you feel comfortable, and is creative! It downpoured on my wedding day and she came up with the best ideas to still get some beautiful outdoor shots without ruining my dress. I had my entire album (1000+ pictures) within less than a week of my wedding. They are impeccable, and I can’t wait to display them around my house. She even brought a second shooter without us mentioning it…and those pictures are the cherry on top. I highly recommend Simply Captivating to any brides looking for an experienced and talented photographer who will make you feel and look beautiful on the best day of your life!!!Melissa is just amazing.

Wonderful! Absolutely Amazing!
I am so happy that I went with Simply Captivating! We hit off with Melissa and Javier from day one. They were both super sweet and humble. They made our wedding day extra special and made sure to always reminds us that they wanted us to have the wedding of our dreams and were there to capture every moment. The photos came out beautiful, even more perfect than I could have imagined. Melissa captured every moment so perfectly, that it brought back the memories of that did so vividly. I was so shocked with how fast she got the photos back to me. I would highly recommend Simply Captivating to everyone, I do not regret my decision one bit and I'm sure you will not either.I am so happy that I went with Simply Captivating!

Excellent team of photographers
We had to cancel our wedding in Italy and plan a whole new wedding back in our hometown once the COVID-19 pandemic hit. We had one conversation with Melissa from Simply Captivating and knew her and her team had the experience and shooting style we wanted for our wedding. We were affected by closures due to the pandemic and had to reschedule our new wedding date a few times, so Vicky ended up being our photographer for our wedding. Her and her husband were so incredibly kind, helpful, and made us both feel at ease on the day of our wedding. The photos came out beautiful - she captured everything we had envisioned. We would highly recommend Vicky + the Simply Captivating team to capture your special day!We had to cancel our wedding in Italy and plan a whole new wedding back in our hometown once the COVID-19 pandemic hit.

Amazing photographer!
Melissa is INCREDIBLE! She is sweet, patient, kind, professional, listens, and most importantly easy to work with. She was both my engagement photo shoot photographer and wedding. Melissa is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. She is an AMAZING photographer. I just received my wedding photos (over 5000) and my current stressor is picking out my which ones to print because she does not make it easy (too many beautiful pics to choose from) LOL. Not to mention I received my wedding pictures after only ONE WEEK! I love how during the shoots she would quickly show me the pictures on her camera so that I can see how their coming out and how I look in the photos. She makes sure to ask you things like what’s your good side. She gets booked out pretty far out in advance so book her early you will not regret it. Melissa I hope you like me as much as I like you because your stuck with me LOL!Melissa is INCREDIBLE! She is sweet, patient, kind, professional, listens, and most importantly easy to work with.

Perfect Experience!
I have nothing but amazing things to say about Melissa! Not only was our engagement shoot above and beyond our expectations, Melissa was absolutely amazing on our wedding day. I cannot express enough how attentive and professional she was. She made sure my hair and dress were fixed all night and that I looked my best, without me even knowing! One of our favorite things about the day was that she made sure we got a picture with each table during salads at our reception so that we had a picture with all of our guests. So nice to have! She captured every moment - every tear, laugh, and dance move. My guests even noticed how impressive she was. And this was BEFORE the beautiful pictures came back about A WEEK later!! They again exceeded our expectations and were breathtakingly beautiful. I will cherish these moments she captured forever, as will our family members and guests. Thank you Melissa!! It is clear why you were so highly recommended to us.I have nothing but amazing things to say about Melissa!

Best Photo/Video Team in Miami!
Melissa & Javier are amazing! Working with them for our wedding was so easy and communication was great since day 1. We had 2 separate locations of where my wife and I were getting ready and they made everything look so effortless. Neither of us feel like we are photogenic people and usually feel awkward in front of the camera and they made us feel so comfortable and actually made us look really good!
They were extremely patient with our family members who wanted to take pictures with us when they weren't supposed to and were very polite when they needed to turn people away or ask them to come back at a different time. This is important because when you have a big wedding because your photographers have to enforce the flow and are dealing with your guests directly and they did an amazing job with that. We also got so many awesome candid shots and we didn't even notice them on the dance floor! A lot of times photographers & videographers tend to be in the way or constantly asking for posed shots and everything with Simply Captivating felt so natural and easy.
Everything came out so amazing with a very natural edit, which we LOVE! We highly recommend Simply Captivating for all your photo & video needs & can't wait to work with them again!Melissa & Javier are amazing!

Beyond our expectations!
Melissa is an absolutely amazing person and photographer. Her advice and guidance were perfect and she continuously made sure I was looking my best (hair/dress) in all my pictures. She is meticulous with every single detail. The photographs are completely beautiful and had them to view within 10 days. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer, both for our engagement and our wedding day. The communication was so easy and all my worries were put to ease by Melissa and her team. From the moment, she arrived until the very last minute she was taking pictures of our wedding. I cannot wait to see the album put together. Thank you Melissa for an amazing job!!!! You are a SWEETHEART!Melissa is an absolutely amazing person and photographer.

The very best
I had Melissa as our photographer for our engagement photos and our wedding, and she’s nothing short of an absolutely amazing person. Her advice and guidance have been paramount. My husband is not a person who poses for pictures easily, and she was easily able to make us feel comfortable and natural. She spoke with us in order to catch the shots we want and how the overall day is going to go. She really captures the most important moments, moments that you can show your family for decades to come. All of our friends and family were taken aback by the beauty of the photos and how they were shot. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect way to remember our special day. Thanks so much, Melissa, we appreciate you!!I had Melissa as our photographer for our engagement photos and our wedding, and she’s nothing short of an absolutely amazing person.

Amazing Photographer
I know a few past brides that have had Melissa shoot their wedding and they recommended her to me when searching for a photographer. Now I know why they highly recommend her. From the moment I met her to do my engagement pictures she was wonderful! So sweet and detail oriented. She gets to know her couples to shoot what captura them best. I absolutely loved both my engagement and wedding pictures, they came out amazing!! Melissa is truly the best and we connected instantly. I would recommend her to any bride and can’t wait to use her services again.I know a few past brides that have had Melissa shoot their wedding and they recommended her to me when searching for a photographer.

Amazing! So happy to have these beautiful memories!
Simply Captivating and their whole team are AMAZING! From the moment we booked them, the communication was so easy. First, Melissa took our engagement pictures and they came out incredible! It was an awesome and easy experience. Fast forward to our wedding, Melissa and Javier helped everything go smoothly and capturedthe most beautiful moments of our day. The pictures and video came out better than I could’ve imagined. Also, Jasmine and Malani were extremely helpful when it came to video and photo questions after the wedding. I can’t stop talking about how great they are and will recommend them to anyone. I honestly cannot thank them enough for all the beautiful memories I have.
