We recently got married at Azul Fives in Riviera Maya (April 27, 2012) and we made the best decision to ask Claudia to capture our special day.  I can't think of one negative thing to say about her and her staff.  They were extremely kind, patient, genuinely sincere, professional and so friendly.  In the few hours we were with them, you can tell they were an extraordinary team that worked will together and knew so much.  

Communication with Claudia leading up to the wedding was BEYOND EXCEPTIONAL.  She was very prompt and informative, and not pushy at all.  Her studio offers great packages as well as additions that will fit your needs.  Effortless!  In the last weeks leading up to the wedding, she gave tips and best advice for your comfort.  She really cared that you weren't only going to look your best, but that you were felt great and were happy. 

Most of the wedding day was a HAPPY blur but I can clearly remember so many things that Claudia did that touched me.  For one, she was on time...early, in fact!!  When she showed up, she had a big smile on her face and greeted me so kindly, even though she came in at the peak of a hectic time.  Right away, she quietly inserted herself in the bridal suite and started to take pictures... from my dress, shoes, jewelry, etc.  She even helped out with placing flowers in bridesmaid's hair!!  For the reception, she even styled and placed the orchid in my hair so that it would be perfect for every shot.  She was amazing and can do it all!

While she was with me, the rest of her team was with the Groom helping them get ready and snapped great shots of them hanging and joking around.  He praised them afterwards, saying pretty much the same thing - how kind, professional, prompt, etc. they were.

We had about 55 guests and her team was so accommodating and patient with everyone.  Her professionalism really showed when we were taking group pictures and she made it so easy.  She clearly didn't want you to waste any precious moments of celebrating but yet you never felt rushed. 

One moment I will never ever forget, was when she surprised us during our reception by showing a preview of the day's pictures on the wall.  It was an unbelievable gift and I couldn't help but start to cry.  Yes, it was a high emotion day :)  But I couldn't believe that they went out of their way to do that.  We knew then that our pictures were going to be beautiful!  Moments into our beach reception, we were told that rain was coming and we would get moved inside.  Although nothing could ruin our day, even pending rain, I was still a little sad that we would have to move indoors.  Claudia made that tinge of sadness disappear and brought life back to my reception with this slideshow.  My guests were in awe of the pictures!

Our gallery was up a few weeks after the wedding as promised and she also sent the dvd and cd of our photos.  AMAZING!!  The pictures were so beautiful and the background was something we didn't even imagine.  Everyone has been praising her work.

It was sad to part ways but she has still been in touch with me.  I will never forget her and I hope to one day return with my 'future' family so she can take pictures of us!  She was one of the best decisions we made in the whole wedding planning process.  We highly recommend her!!!
