HDC Photo also know as Huellas del Caribe, S.A. is a company specialized in photography and videography of weddings celebrated in the Dominican Republic and the surrounding Caribbean area.
On the surface, all weddings look similar. However, they are all unique in their own way. Your wedding will be your own private story, it will reflect the history of your family. For every wedding, we capture the true magic, joy and flavor of the occasion through our photographs.
We believe that every wedding is different and that your photographer should be able to reflect that. We love what we do and consider it our honor to be a part of your day so we can capture images that can be cherished and enjoyed for years to come.

Pros: They were on time and Milan was very experienced and super nice.
Cons: Nothing negative
AHdc the best part of my wedding. Milan actually was our photographer and he knew exactly what to do. He was very efficient and his pictures turned out amazing. We were actually leaving two days after our pics were taken and Arnaud brought them to Secrets royal Beach before we left I love the DVD cover with our picture in it. The slideshow was amazing and I actually received 75 prints. I give them 5 stars and wish I could fly them to the US for every event for them to take pics. You will not be

I cannot say anything bad about HDC, our photographer provided great service. I never felt awkward for any of the poses, even my husband was at ease (and he does not photograph very well!). All our pictures turned out amazing even though it only took them 2 days to deliver!!! I highly recommend HDC Photo!
Here is a link to our pictures... HDC's work is in the Punta Cana Album.

Pros: Excellent people to work with and wonderful photo's
Cons: None
AWe went to Punta Cana, and every year at our spring break getaways, I set up a professional photo shoot to remember these awesome memories. This was one of the best photo shoot experience's we have had ever!! So much fun and excellent customer service from the time we booked it until we got our photo's. I highly recommend this company:D

Pros: Professional, artistic, fun, friendly, value for money, great ideas
Cons: None
From start to finish we were extremely happy with HDC. Both Arnuad and Milan were fantastic!
Before we arrived Arnaud was easy to contact by email and responded quickly with everything that we needed to know. On the wedding day Milan arrived a few minutes early and got to work straight away. He took some very artistic shots in the room of both the Girls and the Guys getting ready.
During the ceremony he took some excellent shots of guests and us as a couple and real

Pros: Great, fun photographer; professional photos; helped orchastrate entire flow of wedding; amazing value
HDC was probably the best decision we made for the wedding. With my husband and I both being amateur photographers, we were a little skeptical selecting a local photographer because we did not know what to expect and the photographer rates compared to our Canadian expectations were quite low.
For some background, we were married at Paradisus Palma Real (a venue worthy of its own fantastic review) in early January of 2012 and have been swamped since we got back and forgot to write a revie

Pros: Everything

We were married at Dreams Punta Cana on April 13, 2012. The work that Milan did is truly phenomenal!! He was a true pleasure to work with and his work is so amazing, he is a true artist. He knew exactly what spots to go to for some amazing shots. He made us feel comfortable in front of the camera (which is not an easy job! haha).
Dealing with Arnaud before we arrived in Punta Cana was effortless, he is so on top of things and would respond to any questions i had. It was a pleasure to

Pros: Great quality & service!
Cons: None!
We were married at the Majestic Elegance resort in Punta Cana on March 19, 2012. We selected HDC Photography because we saw their work on the Majestic Brides facebook page and their website and loved their photos plus the price was fantastic. We were not disappointed, they exceeded our expectations and we were very happy with both our photos and wedding video! Our photographer was Milan and he was great to work with, knew so many great poses and was good at getting us to relax. He was also very

Pros: Everything!!!
Cons: Non at all
We got married in Dreams La Romana on the 6th March 2012 and we have chosen HDC to do our photography, after readying so many positive reviews!
There isn't even one negative thing that I could say about HDC - starting from booking process all through out until receipt of our pictures, everything has been perfect, on time and the highest quality we have ever encountered!
Like planning any destination wedding, it has been stressful, however HDC put all our worries to rest all through out

Pros: Everything!!
From Day ONE I was completely impressed with HDC Photo. (www.hdcphoto.com) We hired them based on a review from Debbies Dominican Travel and their website photos ~ truthfully ~ I did not think that we could afford themv at first!! I got the quote and hired them hands down. I was so very impressed with the email contact and prompt replies, the photographer the day of the wedding ~ everything was PERFECT!!! And their prices!!! WOW!! Much more cost effective rather than hiring anyone here AND

Pros: The entire experience with HDC Photo was great!
Cons: Not a single negative point.
My husband and I were married at The Paradisus Palma Real Resort March 9th. Our photographer was Milan and he was so funny! I was nervous about taking pictures and he instantly put me at ease. He took over 400 pictures and they were all FANTASTIC! I couldn't have asked for more. We were married on a Friday and we had our pictures back Tuesday. HDC Photo is the best!

Hiring HDC was one of the best decisions we made. When looking for a photographer for the wedding I stumbled on this website and found HDC with all these positive reviews thus we booked them. Now after the wedding I can contribute to the reviews! The service was excellent, booking was super easy and Arnaud Brichet responded quickly. On the day of the wedding the photographer and videographer were very nice, time efficient and professional. I did not have specific pictures that I wanted and t

Milan (sp?) was amazing. He was so creative with the shots and suggestions.

Pros: Nice Pictures, Well Priced, Got More Than What We Thought
Cons: Must use PayPal to reserve your spot
We really enjoyed our experience with HDC. The back and forth with emails was smooth and understandable. I selected them over any other site because of their samples. You really only have samples to go on, and I liked what I saw on their site.
We were promised a photography session at 10 AM on Monday. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I figured he would take about an hour of photos around our resort. Instead, the photographer picked us up and went out in his car. We went to 2 spots

We could not be happier with HDC!
From the very first communications with Arnaud, we were extremely impressed with this company. He responded very quickly to all of our emails, and his fluency in English was very reassuring. We were quickly booked and had all of the details sorted out.
The photographer showed up on time and was great about working around us getting ready. We were a bit hectic when he first showed up, so he busied himself taking photos of the dress, rings, etc

Pros: EVERYTHING!!!
Cons: NONE EVER!!!
HDC honestly and truly surpassed every single expectation I had for wedding photography. I have to admit, I was EXTREMELY nervous not knowing who or what the result would be.
I chose HDC based on feedback on the Facebook Dreams Palm Beach Brides page. All the brides raved about them. Their prices were lower and more competitive than any other Punta Cana photographer that specialized in destination weddings and they were familiar with the resort I was getting married at.
From the jump my co

Pros: photographers were fun and creative, customer service was fast and answered all my questions the first time
Cons: didn't erase bystanders from photos
I loved working with HDC Photo! I had been planning to go with the resort photographer, but after seeing samples from the resort I wanted something more professional and creative. That's exactly what I received with HDC Photo.
I emailed Arnaud (the owner) to get more information on packages and based on my experiences working with other vendors in the area, I hoped to get a response within a few days. Within half an hour (yes! really!) I received an email from Arnaud and he sent me the p

Pros: very professional, organized, managed the time well to get all the shots we needed, absolutely stunning photos!
We hired HDC to photograph our wedding at Dreams Punta Cana Resort & Spa in January 2012. Although I was a little nervous about hiring someone we hadn't met before, the price vs. bringing a photographer from Canada couldn't compare. We chose the package that includes 4 hours of photographer and then all the photos on a disc.
Milan was our photographer and was great. He showed up a few minutes early and got right to work. He knew exactly what shots he wanted to get (as I didn't provide a l

Pros: Absolutely Worth the Money!
I am so thrilled that we decided to take alot of time to find a photographer/videographer, off the resort's list of suggested people to hire! The people at HDC Photo were worth the research, time, effort.
In planning, I never had a hard time getting a hold of Arnaud (owner). He emailed us back within a 24 hour period, with any answers to my questions or concerns. Making the down-payment through paypal was painless, and making all of the arrangements before-hand was also painless becau

Pros: Amazing talent, Hard working, Great Customer Service, Good Business Practices
Cons: No cons
I had my wedding at the Now Larimar Puna Cana on Feb. 17th 2012. Milan was our photographer and Arnaud has been there every step of the process. What a great company! My pictures are amazing and everyone loved the photographer. He made us feel at ease throughout the whole day and got so many amazing shots at our wedding. It is hard to pick a photographer online as you never know what you are going to get but this company is worth every penny. Our hotel offered a photography package at almost dou

Pros: EVERYTHING! our DVD was more than I expected, and he photography was sensational!
Cons: none!
One word. WOW. We used HDC for our wedding at dreams la romana on february 24th and they were simply fantastic. Milan took the photos and carlos did the videography and they were great to work with. I couldn’t recommend them enough! Our DVD is so brilliant and even though I didnt tell them what music I would like included in it they used all the same songs that we had from our ceremony - it is just wonderful. The photography is so incredible it looks like half of the backgrounds are superimposed

Pros: Value, Service, Quality, Communication
Cons: Not a single con
My wife and I were married in the Dominican Republic on 10/1/2011. HDC was recommended to us by friends of ours who had a destination wedding 2 yrs earlier. I can't say enough about how great a company HDC Photo is and how exceptional their services were.
We had been planning our wedding for 18 months (I'm a bit of a type A) and had every detail down to a T planned out. Then 3 days before we were set to leave we were notified that the hotel we were staying at had been sold and would n

Pros: Prompt, Friendly, Professional, Creative, Determined, Flexible
Cons: We didn't have a long enough time with them! lol
We purchased HDC's Silver Plus package, as well as the Trash the Dress Plus package.
We couldn't be more thrilled with the pictures we received, and absolutely love that we have all of them on a DVD so that we can print any of them whenever and wherever we want to! They were very prompt and friendly, and helped make the wedding day run smoothly. We strongly recommend them to anyone! Thank you HDC photography!

Pros: Great, professional company. Was able to use for photography and videographer. Easy to work with.
Cons: Wish we had the photographer for longer. We did not have him for the reception, wish we did.
We just got back from our wedding at the Paradisus Palma Real in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. We used HDC photo, and I could not be happier. Arnuad was very easy and pleasant to work with. I was worried booking a photographer from a far, but I could not be happier, they turned out amazing, they really captures our special day. I am obsessed with my pictures. :) We also did trash the dress the next day, which turned out amazing. I highly recommend using them for your Punta Cana wedding.

Pros: Professional and fun
Cons: none
I had my wedding ceremony on January 28,2012 at Dreams Palm Beach, Punta Cana. I wanted great pictures at a great price and HDC provided that for me. I had emailed with them back and forth from time to time and did not know what to really expect. I was a bit nervous but they did not disappoint what so ever. They arrived on time and took all sorts of photos for us to have. We had them film our ceremony and take pictures of both me and my husband getting ready, the ceremony and then a photo
