Evrim Icoz: A+

Iâ€™d like to let everyone know about Evrim Icoz, my amazing wedding photographer. I was referred to Evrim by Andrea from Sayulita Dream Weddings. We ended up having our wedding at Playa Fiesta in Puerto Vallarta, but Iâ€™ll always be thankful for Andrea to sharing Evrimâ€™s work with me and my husband. We were instantly blown away the beauty of Evrimâ€™s photographs. They capture so much more than what we are used to seeing from wedding photographs- group shots with the wedding party, posing by the cake, etc. Evrimâ€™s pictures capture the emotion on peopleâ€™s face and the beauty in the small things that happen throughout your wedding day. For example, one of our favorite pictures is of a drink being poured at the bar. Itâ€™s so unique that we are going to order it, and put it above the wet bar at our own house. We actually donâ€™t even have a wet bar, but weâ€™d like one, so I guess weâ€™re putting the cart before the horse. The picture is so fabulous that weâ€™re buying furniture to match it!

We first met Evrim at our rehearsal dinner. He arrived in town early and stopped by to meet us. It was really nice to get to know him the day before the wedding, and he was able to get a feel for our venue. I think most of our guests met him that night too, and pretty soon he was just like one of our crew! Evrim is really easy to get along with, and that made it fun to work with him. Heâ€™s also extremely conscientious. We had lunch with him during our day after shoot, and he locked his camera case to his chair. Yes, he cares about his equipment, but more importantly he cares about your pictures. Evrim also takes a tremendous amount of care with his editing and handling of his images. Heâ€™ll use several different cameras, lenses, and other forms of technology I donâ€™t understand to make sure he has the best pictures possible. Iâ€™ll let him explain all of that to you, but I do know the results are impressive!

Evrim arrived early on the day of the wedding and went to work taking pictures of Playa Fiesta, our guests relaxing, and our getting-ready process. The wedding started, and Evrim didnâ€™t miss a moment of the action. We took our group shots, and then he was off and running capturing everything that happened that evening. Iâ€™ve never seen a photographer carry so many cameras and work so hard in order not to miss a single special moment. When my friend leapt two feet into the air to catch my bouquet, he got the picture!

We now consider Evrim our friend, and I want to highly recommend him to EVERYONE! Weâ€™ve spent a couple of evenings going through our pictures, and the only problem is that there are way too many amazing photographs. We donâ€™t have enough wall space for all of the pictures we want to print! Weâ€™ll have these pictures for the rest of our lives, and they will always bring back the happiness in our hearts and the beauty of our wedding day at Playa Fiesta.

Evrim, we thank you!!!
