    A picture says a 1000 words

    The pictures were absolutely beautiful and told a story. Team was friendly down-to-earth and patient. You and your team went above and beyond what I expected and even the organization of the various shots.
    10/10 would definitely recommend :)

    Fantastic and Memorable

    Recommended by a friend. We did a photo shoot for our 25th Wedding Anniversary. The location chosen was perfect. Levar (photographer) was fun and easy to work. His attention to detail was noteworthy. We had a memorable experience.
    Highly recommended.

    Amazing Job!

    Levar took my family (17 people) pictures and superceded our expectations. He is very professional and his work speaks for itself. If you need professional pictures for the special day.....look no further. He is your guy!

    Levar is a superstar

    Levar Gordon is excellent. He is reliable, kind, responsible but more importantly he listens. I was so so pleased with the work he did for my wedding. I presented him a style that was different from his usual. Levar did NOT argue or push back against me instead he worked to meet my husband and my needs. There is nothing more you could want from a vendor. He understood that it was my day and he went above and beyond. We were blown away by the amazing job he did! In the end he even did further editing for us at a great price. I would recommend him to anyone.

    Lovely person, very professional and an amazing photographer!!!

    Couldn't Be Happier

    We are beyond pleased with the photos Levar took. I did quite a bit research and looked through a plethora of portfolios before deciding on Visual Embrace. It was one of the best decisions I made for our big day! The photos captured our beautiful day and guests with creativity, angles, and great lighting. I didn't realize it until our photos were received, but Levar and his assistant stayed longer than we expected to capture the tail end of our day. They were very patient, professional, and captured so many moments that I didn't realize or remember until looking back at the photos. Everyone cannot stop looking and talking about them because his work is simply brilliant! I would recommend Visual Embrace to any and everyone.

    Amazing photographer to work with!

    Levar was amazing to work with all the way around! He was quick to respond to any questions I had and had a great personality! On the wedding day he knew what he was doing and took control and lead us in the right direction but also listened to any ideas I had. He made our wedding photo session fun. My jaw dropped when I got the link to view our photos. They were even better than I had hoped! I can’t recommend Levar enough! You won’t be disappointed!

    I’m so happy I came across Visual Embrace. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. Levar is very responsive to emails. I never had to wait days for a response. Levar arrived to the resort on time and ready to work. He made me comfortable in front of the camera and captured some creative shots. I didn’t provide him with a shot list, as I trusted his work. Visual Embrace surprised me with a few teaser photos 3 days after the wedding! It was totally unexpected, yet much appreciated. I can’t recommend Visual Embrace enough. He was the total package! Great quality, affordable, professional, and responsive!

    Love love love Levar!!! I paid the resort a $600 vendor fee just to have him shoot our wedding and he was worth every penny!!! He’s professional and curtious. He answers all my emails sometimes within minutes. The day of our wedding he was on time, so sweet to work with and very professional. Our pictures were stunning!!! Choose Visual Embrace, I PROMISE YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED!!! I also loved that he was always trying to come up with different poses while making sure he got all of the poses I requested. Thank you Levar!!!

    We got Married at the Rockhouse hotel in Negril Jamaica in November and after lots of research we decided Levar was the one, and we could not be happier with our decision. He captured our special day beautifully. Our pictures are truly breathtaking!!! I really cannot stop looking at them. He is indeed a true artist and I would recommend him to anyone.

    Levar was incredible to work with! He was so incredibly responsive and he captured my wedding perfectly! I'm not a very naturally photogenic person, but he managed to capture the natural moments without me realizing he was there, and during the more formal group shots he managed to direct me to get pretty awesome photos! We went on cliffs, we scouted hallways, he had me balance on bridges - they all were beautiful.

    The icing on the cake was the photos came back way faster than I expected (5 weeks! Granted I had a November wedding) and at incredibly high quality. I'm SO happy I chose to work with him and I highly recommend him to all brides doing destination weddings to Jamaica!

    Levar was fantastic. Due to some unforeseen circumstances our wedding venue had to be changed from the Virgin Islands to Jamaica 5 weeks prior to the big day. Levar was sympathetic to our situation and was able to fit us into his very busy schedule. He arrived at our facility on the big day and had a plan for what he wanted to do before telling us he was even there. As soon as we started, we got to experience his professionalism and his eye for beauty. He pays close attention to backgrounds and lighting. He utilized EVERY POSSIBLE SECOND to capture every angle of our perfect day. He really gets to know you and your style throughout the process. He captured so many wonderful, precious moments. He's a true artist. He was even in a knee brace after having had recent surgery and still worked several different angles that were very uncomfortable for him to get the perfect shot. We would recommend him to anyone! Thank you Visual Embrace

    Booking a photographer was the hardest part for me being that I'm a wedding photographer myself. So selecting someone was difficult being that we judged a good photo harder than most. When I reached out to Levar he responded quickly and was always friendly. On the day of my wedding, him and his assistant fit right in with my group and had a great time. However, when I received my pictures back I was blown away! He did an amazing job! I immediately began to share them on social media and people LOVED them. Everyone wanted to know who the photographer was! The picture colors were rich and vibrant and told a story. There were a few non traditional shots I wanted to take and Levar jumped on board immediately! You can spend a ton of money on so many things but your photography is the only thing that will truly still be relevant 20 years from now. Choose well. Pick someone who's gonna capture your style and present it like a piece of art. Visual Embrace did that for us!

    Levar did an amazing job at our wedding. I had a hard time picking 120 pictures for our photo album based on how great all the pictures look. I'm happy I went with him for our photos. I would definitely recommend him to all my friends and family.

    Levar's pictures are amazing! He was one of the photographers that my wedding coordinator, Sadeki of Chic Events, recommended. There is something about the final product that is radiant and magical. It rained a little on our wedding day and you could not tell in our pictures that it was raining. We were running a little behind and Levar went above and beyond to make sure that he stayed to capture all of the moments that he could. I didn't do this, but I would recommend having maybe two photographers and providing your photographer(s) with a list of people and/or items that you want to be photographed with and have someone get them when needed. My family was a little too in his way when he was trying to set us up and get the shots, but he remained patient and professional throughout the process.

    It was an absolute pleasure to work with Levar from Visual Embrace Photography! I researched and compared many local Jamaican wedding photographers and chose Levar based on his beautiful and extensive portfolio, value and great reviews. My husband and I are extremely happy with the variety and quality of all of the amazing photos we received in addition to the online photo album he created for us. Levar captured the energy and emotions of the entire day through a variety of posed and candid shots that exemplified his creativity, attention to detail and passion for photography. He gave us great direction and found the most scenic places on the resort in order to take the most stunning photos. Instead of a second photographer, Levar was accompanied by an artist who painted two beautiful abstract paintings of my wedding day - one of the ceremony and one of the reception. The unique paintings added another element to how that special day can be remembered. Overall, my experience working with Levar was very positive from beginning to end. He was consistently responsive before the event, professional and pleasant on the wedding day and provided excellent customer service after the event. You won't be disappointed if you choose Visual Embrace Photography!

    Thank you very much Emily, it was great working with you too.

    Levar was the definition of professional. I planned by wedding with very little time and Levar accommodated me at a moment's request even willing to shift around prior personal engagements. He arrived promptly and felt almost like a fly on the wall the entire time leading up to the ceremony. At no time was I annoyed by his direction or presence; and we certainly needed the direction as we aren't photogenic. Even my family commented that you could tell he loved his job and seemed he'd be happy to take pictures all day. He not only took standard wedding pics eg wedding party etc but also really beautiful artistic images of the surrounding landscapes which was important to my husband and me.
    My one recommendation would be to take the option of having a second photographer (which he provides) as he really got a workout running around without help to capture my best moments on film. Not as crucial for my event as it was quite small but definitely worth it if you are having many guests.

    Levar is excellent! There are so many positive things that I can say about him. He provided us with the most awesome photos of our wedding. He is not your ordinary photographer. He has a great eye, is very detail oriented and will go above and beyond to capture the perfect shot. He truly captured our spirits in the photos. He is very professional, flexible and responsive. If you want awesome, innovative photos then LeVar is the person to go with.

    Levar is amazing! He showed up the day of my wedding ready to work and in turn, provided me with the most beautiful photos I've ever seen. My husband and I have been getting rave reviews from everyone we show the photos to. Levar was flexible with the changing weather (it started to rain while taking picture) and quick on his feet. The vibrancy of the colors in the photos captured the beauty of our wedding and its decor. And most importantly, Levar kept in contact and was prompt in the delivery of the photos as agreed. My wedding was in great hands with Levar and I have the photos to prove it!

    Visual Embrace Photography did a great job. Levar, the photographer, was easy to work with and really cool (and funny) throughout. His ideas, combined with ours, produced great moments at our event and allowed for the moments to be captured with much ease and comfort to us. In the end, people fell in love with the final product of the shots. Our pics were a sensation. Big up, Visual Embrace.

    Our beautiful day captured perfectly

    Five years ago we chose Levar to be a part of our big day and we are so happy that we did. Every year on our anniversary we go back and look through the amazing photos he took and it brings us right back. His ability to capture the ‘in the moment’ shots is what drew us to him. He’s very perceptive, which allows him to pick up on the little details that are important. He’s kind and relaxed, which is important when the emotions are running high. We highly recommend him!
