Raphael was a pleasure to work with. He took my family photos on the beach and made it feel effortless. I was extremely happy with the photos we received. I appreciated his natural and candid approach to photography. I highly recommend working with him to capture some amazing moments and memories.

I recently had my headshots done by Raphael, and I’m so happy with how they turned out. He made the whole experience feel easy and natural, which really came through in the photos. He captured exactly what I was hoping for: professional, polished, but still very me.
Highly recommend Raphael if you're looking for someone who brings both skill and heart to their work.

Raphael’s connection to the beach and his ability to capture families in such a special environment is unmatched. As a local LB resident, he brings a unique perspective to shoots - offering site suggestions, authentic compositions, and an appreciation for timing, weather, and color. As a father, he was able to keep our children engaged and knew exactly how to capitalize on their energy. His love and care are evident in each of our beautiful photos.

I hired Raphael for my wedding after searching for a photographer who aligned with my vision of "in the moment," photography. I followed his work for some time and loved how he captured life as it was happening. When speaking with him, he provided creative and unique ideas, was responsive, and willing to accommodate specific requests. Raphael has a very calm demeanor, listened to my requests, and made me feel like family. I was confident that his skill, care, and photography style would be perfectly executed for our special day.

Raphael! These photos are truly amazing. You've captured our joy and a most beautiful setting. We thank you!
My husband & I are moving into a new house soon. I'm already looking at canvas prints for decor. You can be assured we will tell the story of the professional photographer and his lovely family. Again, thank you.

We are so impressed with Raphael's ability to "capture the moment" without asking us to pose. He made us feel so comfortable with candids. Highly recommend this gifted photographer for any event.

My husband and I hired Raphael to photograph our wedding after searching for someone who would align with our vision - to capture spontaneous photos of our friends and family that depicted love, joy, and excitement. We craved a natural sense of authenticity and emotion that posed photos very often lack. Raphael did not disappoint.
Since we live out of state, it was very important that we felt comfortable with someone who was able to communicate with us from afar. Raphael scheduled planning sessions, was prompt, a pleasure to work with, and even managed to make our most camera shy wedding attendees feel comfortable.
We could not have been more pleased with the work that Raphael did for us. He went above and beyond the scope of what a typical photographer offers and provided us with beautiful photos that will last a lifetime.
