    BEST CHOICE!!!! On the spot booked!

    Words cannot express how much we adored Harold and his team. They are a well oiled machine and have this down to a science. Harold's work speaks volumes with the amount of passion and love he puts into the service he provides. Our wedding pictures went above and beyond what we could have ever imagined. Harold's personality lights up the room and his team is your biggest supporter for your happiness on your special day. Our wedding stress felt lifted every time we spoke to Harold. We booked Harold on the spot after speaking to several other vendors.

    Must have photographer

    If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding you need to book Harold. He is absolutely amazing. He makes you feel so comfortable and blends right in with the crowd. He did my wedding and he also did my brothers wedding. Once I saw him at my brothers wedding I knew he was the photographer I absolutely had to have at my wedding! I’m beyond happy with the quality of the photos! You must book him if you want to feel comfortable at your wedding and have amazing photos! Harold you rock!!!!!

    Hire Harold for all your wedding photo needs!

    Harold was an incredible photographer for our wedding day! We did our engagement pictures and wedding pictures with him and both turned out better than we could have ever imagined. Harold is extremely personable, professional, and so easy to work with. Even on top of photography, he went out of his way to make our entire wedding day perfect. He made sure we got every shot we wanted and still had time to socialize with our guests. Both of our families raved about him and how great he was throughout the day! We highly recommend Harold for all your engagement/wedding photo needs!!

    Harold’s work won’t disappoint!

    We just received our wedding highlight video back from Harold and we couldn’t be happier! The work that Harold did will forever keep the memories of our day for us to look back on. We never expected it to be so thoughtfully put together, multiple camera angles, focusing on the right details at the right time, capturing raw emotion and the unbelievable quality of the footage all contributed to the beautiful film. He was such a great guy to work with..We will always recommend Harold’s services.
    Thanks again! The Piegaro’s

    Harold was the best vendor we worked with!

    Harold was our photographer for our wedding in October and he was the absolute best photographer that we could have chosen to work with! He is funny, charismatic, patient, professional and extremely skilled! We were pleasantly surprised when he brought a second shooter (we had a large bridal party and this helped us so much with staying on our timeline!) He was more than just our photographer - he was like a personal assistant throughout the whole day - he controlled the mood of any room that he was in. During cocktail hour, he seamlessly guided us through as we chatted with guests and assisted us with transitioning from group to group with ease. He caught every moment of our wedding day perfectly. We can’t say enough kind things about Harold - everyone who attended the wedding commented on how much they loved Harold and his amazing personality. We shared so many laughs together and his vision was able to shine in our photos. We can’t wait to work with Harold in the future. He is the best HANDS DOWN! It was an unforgettable experience!

    Harold was terrific

    100% recommend Harold! We booked Harold for both our wedding ceremony and reception which were held on different days. He was incredibly accommodating in working with our schedule. He put us at ease even during our conversations before the events and truly made the process stress-free. On the days of, he was awesome to work with – attentive, dedicated, friendly and funny and yet very professional. Our guests have complimented us on how great the photography team was. We love how Harold and his team were passionate about their work, and it shows. We’re ecstatic about our pictures and video highlight reel. They truly captured the occasion, and we’ll hold onto the memories for decades to come.

    Passionate & Creative

    Harold did both our engagement photoshoot and wedding photos. We felt so lucky to have found him! He is good at making you feel comfortable and at capturing moments you didn’t think they would be memorable. He is creative, responsible, and loves to work in unique settings. I would recommend Harold in a heartbeat to any couple who is looking for an easy going, hard-working, and creative photographer. Thank you!

    Harold made my dreams come true!

    As a first time bride planning my own wedding it is so nerve wrecking how do you pick the right photographer, venue caterer etc?!! Let me tell you from the moment I spoke to Harold on the phone I knew he would be the one I wanted to capture my day. I like to play hard to get so I told him Id reach back out in a few days. haha I reached back out a few hours later to book him!! I trusted him from the moment we spoke, I knew I was going to be in good hands on the most important day of my life. Fast forward to our wedding day, he and his team met me with a smile, gave me courage and confidence that I needed to start my ceremony and wedding day. Harold is an artist, a true pro, a caring person, funny and in the short amount of time I got to know him, I know noone can go wrong with hiring him and his team. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you, thank you thank you!

    Harold is your guy...amazing to work with and a talented photographer

    We hired Harold for our wedding in April. We couldn't be happier with both the experience of working with him and the output. Harold is everything you'd want with a wedding photographer. He's organized, good communication, easy to work with, and a master of his craft. He's also really cool and nice (which sounds fluffy, but makes a huge difference throughout the process)! We highly recommend Harold!

    Harold for the win!

    Harold was a true professional. He calmed all of my nerves on the day of my wedding. Even though it was just him, I felt as if I had several photographers around me. He was always there by side when I needed him, took tons of shots, and went out of his way to get the perfect image. He delivered my photographs back to me with lightning speed - I was shocked! He's got a great personality too. Everyone in my wedding party was having such a good time and we can thank Harold for helping to contribute to the good vibes. All I can really say is "thank you!" to Harold and I 100% would recommend his services! His fee is totally reasonable as well. You won't regret it!

    Photographer/video

    5 stars isn’t enough 1 million stars. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Besides the pictures coming out like they should be in a magazine, the accommodations from Harold was AMAZING! From the day we booked till the day of Harold has kept in constant contact with me and asked if we needed help in anyway all the way down to our coffee orders !!!! 100000000/10

    J&M wedding 09/24/2021

    Harold was great. He was easy to contact with any questions we had. I wasn't sure how to plan the timeline for our wedding but he helped me out. The day of the wedding he was on time. When we were on our way to the venue he asked if we wanted coffee and bought us coffee. The whole day at the wedding went perfect. Before he left he asked if we wanted any group photos. I got the pictures back pretty quick. I am still waiting for the video but he said it's almost done. I have so many photos to choice from. Thank you again Harold.

    You need to choose him

    Why you ask?
    As an inexperienced bride in the wedding realm (I say inexperienced because I did not have any close friends or siblings plan a wedding around me), Harold made sure to ease my mind from the moment I called to inquire about his services. He answered all my questions and even advised me on all things wedding related, better than a planner or a best friend who has been married several times over. He made sure to communicate with me exactly how and what to expect and plan with my pictures, which made that part of the day very pleasant and calm. And very importantly—- he brought me and my mother Starbucks coffee and breakfast! Had it not been for him I would have eaten at my reception at 7pm! It’s the little things that shows how much he loves what he does and cares for his clients.
    His expertise and artful eye in photography is what first captured my attention. However, after working with him on my wedding day, it was his compassion, friendliness, meticulousness, positive energy, and work ethic that really shined. It’s been three weeks and I still have guests complementing me on my choice in photographer and how incredible he was and how many pictures he took!
    Now to the results—OUTSTANDING
    He provided a huge selections of images very quickly and the rest shortly after. Harold is our photographer for all events moving forward. Thank you Harold!

    Quality service and communication

    We hired Harold for our wedding pre-pandemic and he was able to help us find a package that suited our needs best. We unfortunately had to reschedule our wedding and Harold was very flexible and understanding, he made it so much easier during a crazy time. On wedding day Harold and his videographer were flexible, provided great suggestions for shots, and went out of their way to accommodate whatever was needed (including dealing with really hot weather...). We received our pictures and videos a few days ago and have loved every bit! You simply can't go wrong with Harold.

    He has an eye for details

    Harold has a great personality that blends in nicely with everyone. He makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera. He’s patient and full of ideas. He was willing to help with everything non related to photos. I would recommend to anyone wanting to have a great photographer/videographer for their wedding.
    Thank you Harold, you made our day special. Our Family keeps talking about how great you were.

    He will put you at ease!

    The weight of this 5-star review was in Harold's personality and workmanship. We booked before COVID and he stuck with us through several reschedules. Didn't try to hustle us for a penny more. He is thoughtful and easy going.. showed up on time (with coffee!) and was ready to step in when it looked like our videographer was going to be a no-show. Turns out they did show and never announced themselves..smh. Also, the venue was giving us an unbelievably hard time about us enforcing masks and distancing (yeah in the middle of a pandemic) but Harold put on a mask and got to work without complaint.
    Now the photos. We were VERY spoiled with the photographer who shot our engagement photos abroad. That being said, Harold did a nice job. I communicated the issues I had with the final cuts and he got to work editing tons of photos until I was happy. My recommendation, if you are particular like I am...communicate clearly every kind of shot you want. He never once told us no, so I wish there were some artistic shots and more close ups that we just didnt get. I would hire Harold again and give samples of the types of poses and style of shooting. He is an absolute dream to work with.

    HD... High Def or Harold Duarte? Yes to both

    If you want a photographer that not only shoots amazing pictures but is easy to work with then I recommend Harold. He will work to give you the best package to fit your budget. He has such an amazing personality that, by the end of the wedding, you'll want to invite him to your next cook out. He has a real eye for detail and will capture unique shots, but will take time to roll through the standard ones too. Rest assured that not a moment will be missed. Did I mention he also does drone shots. He got some of my wife and I at the falls near our venue.

    Harold came to us with an open mind and was very thoughtful on our wishes.

    My husband and I were looking for a photographer and video vendor that will meet our needs but most of all will make our day seem magical. That is what we were able to achieve with Harold. He was able to make us happy at all points of the day from waking up super early and spending the day with us by taking pictures and having his video man capture every highlight of our beautiful day.

    Hire Harold Duarte! You won't regret it!

    Harold made the whole process so easy and was a pleasure to work with! He took control of the event in order to make sure we really got the best pictures possible. He was able to manage getting pictures of all the bride’s and groom’s families- which are big and chaotic. He got every combination of families for the formal pictures. He was even good about getting pictures with and without girlfriends/boyfriends (just in case they’re not part of the family down the road). Moreover, he was able to capture some great candid shots (which were my personal favorites). He was attentive, punctual, calm, and very professional. He seems to really love what he does. It was 40 degrees outside and everyone was freezing, but he was great about making sure we got all our pictures taken without a complaint and even offered me (the bride) his jacket between pictures (so thoughtful!).

    Wedding harold is awesome

    Friday 11.29.2019 Harold was my photographer for my wedding!!! He did an amazing Job getting everyone sorted and helping me control the group which was a lot of anxiety for me. Everyone raves about Harold. They even went out of there way to call me and tell me how good he was! That’s a big win in my family! Harold always cracks me up and a real crowd pleaser. All my best friends raved! He tried to calm me down on so many occasions and hiccups with other vendors! He did not give me one issue! thanks Harold!

    10/10 would reccomend!

    My (now) husband and I first worked with Harold for our engagement shoot and we were immediately comfortable and confident in booking him for our big day! From the moment you meet him, Harold radiates professionalism and positivity. He is beyond prepared with multiple top of the line cameras, lenses, equipment and lighting rigs that translate to STUNNING photos. You can immediately tell he has deep experience in the way he poses us for the shot and the dynamic he has with his team. During our wedding day, another couple had taken the spot we wanted to use for our first look. He was able to think fast and creatively to solve this and we ended up having photos we love more. I/ we never had to wonder how we were photographing. He makes the posed shots feel effortless and fun and can also capture the organic moments of love and happiness in the candids. DID I MENTION HE MADE A STARBUCKS RUN THE MORNING OF. He genuinely cares about his clients and wants them to be comfortable in and out of the frame and it shows!

    Above and Beyond

    Harold and his team went above and beyond for me and my husband. From the first communications, to the engagement shoot, to the big day, and afterwards - everything was done with professionalism, quality, and timeliness. I got my wedding photos about 2 weeks after the big day - record breaking time! They are beautiful. My only suggestion to brides is that if Drone pictures were in your package & important to you, make sure you alot enough time for his team to take them; we were a bit Jammed packed. But we have hundreds of beautiful photos. Harold was positive, friendly, and worked within our budget perfectly. He was very accomodating.
