In photography, there’s no surprise that everything is about photographs.
But do you know what’s even more important than the photos themselves? The people in them! And it’s these people who make our job so wonderful. It’s a real pleasure to experience different walks of life with each of our clients, and to see them blossom in the most memorable of ways.
On this page you can find just a few of the kind words we’ve received from clients over the years. Every single opportunity means so much to us and we can’t say thank you enough to each person who has been with us on the journey so far!

“We are so lucky to have found Santiago & his team! They covered our Indian wedding (multi-day event) and Santiago was incredible to work with!
We kept in touch as the wedding day approached, and he was easy to get a hold of and super responsive. I think of him as family now and will be using him to capture all of our future big-events. The photos that he and his team took turned out amazing!! As a big Indian family, we have looked at and admired the photos 100s of times and each time are insanely amazed by the extraordinary work and attention to detail.
We wish Santiago & his team all the very best, and they have our highest recommendation. They will capture moments to make your special event that much more special!!”

“We are so thankful that we got introduced to Santiago as our wedding photographer! From our first interaction, he was patient, communicative, open-minded and really went the extra mile to understand what we were looking for. He helped us scout out the best spots for our pictures given photography timing/lighting, and was so calm and collected throughout the entire weekend, making the entire process incredibly easy for us. He also provided sneak peaks during the weekend itself, and we couldn't be happier with the way the photos have turned out.”

“Santiago is more than an amazing photographer! He did our engagement and wedding photos and he truly captured our precious moments! Not just that but we also gained a friend in the process! He is so open and generous and truly a great photographer!”
- Leyla Sapad
“Santiago and his assistant/wife brought a combination of creativity and experienced professionalism to our photo shoot that was beyond what I expected. I am definitely camera shy and am almost always the person in group photos to be looking away or somehow being awkward. Needless to say, I was worried about doing this! They had so many incredible and fun ideas though and somehow completely captured the energy between me and my partner. I was absolutely blown away with pictures they sent us and could not be happier!!!”
- Deva Bluemoon
“Santiago was an amazing photographer to work with. My husband and I could not have asked for someone better to capture one of the most important days of our lives. He captured all the special moments that added to our dream wedding. His personality was great to work with and made us feel at ease taking pictures on such nerve-wrecking day. He did an amazing job on being present and behind the scenes at the same time. Santiago captured love from us, and our loved ones on our special day and we will have these memories forever.”
- Anahi Conroy
“Santiago did an incredible job for both our engagement and wedding pictures. He is patient, and really listens to ensure all your wants are met. Both my husband and I always felt at ease throughout the whole process thanks to his down to earth demeanor. Whenever my husband and I had any questions, he was very quick to respond. He really exceeded our expectations. All our pictures, and our video turned out absolutely amazing. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. Once again, thank you so much for everything you did Santiago.”
- Stephanie Salas
“Santiago was our chosen photographer for our summer wedding in Scottsdale, Arizona. I came to know of him through a bridal show I had visited amidst wedding planning. It was a true delight having Santiago a part of our celebrations. The wedding celebrations were over a few days. Santiago is very attentive to detail, very respectful of requests ( a true gentleman ! ).
He is also very professional, has excellent, creative ideas of capturing wedding memories and with my own experience, I can confidently attest that he's great at capturing Indian weddings that are known to display lots of bright colors, yet he does so in a very elegant manner. My husband and I have had several people inquire who made our wedding album as the quality of the photos is eye-catching… It was Santiago of course! Santiago's esthetic sense is impressive ! We highly recommend Santiago as a wedding photographer !!!”

“Santiago Almada is an amazing photographer that my wife and I would recommend to everyone! The photos he took at our wedding are beautiful and we are very pleased with them.
His knowledge with the lighting and poses made our photos spectacular. He was also great in how he listened to our input to personalize our photos to meet our desires. Our wedding had to be minimized due to covid19, so It was great that Santiago was flexible and worked with us to change scheduling and timing. He was great to work with and would definitely use his photography at more events.”
