Hi, I’m Marcos Esteban (but you can call me Este). I’m a photographer and filmmaker based in Salt Lake City, Utah, and for the last eight years, I’ve been obsessed with one thing: telling great stories.
My goal is simple: I want you to feel seen and understood. I don't just "take photos"—I provide intentional documentation that captures the actual feeling of your wedding and of each couple. Whether it’s a quiet, unposed moment or the high energy of your reception, I use a cinematic lens and an editorial eye to make sure your memories look as good as they felt.
How I Work:
• Real Moments: I prioritize authenticity over stiff posing.
• Photo & Video: I capture high-resolution imagery and cinematic film so your story is complete.
• Tailored Experience: Every couple is different. I focus on your specific vision to ensure your wedding gallery feels like you.
• Salt Lake & Beyond: I’m based locally but always ready to travel to wherever your story takes place
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll probably find me at the movies, playing drums, or leading the youth group at my church.
I’m ready to help you build your visual legacy. Let’s talk about your day.

We hired Este Photo to capture the most special moments of our lives—our proposal, engagement, and wedding—and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From start to finish, the...
team was professional, attentive, and incredibly talented. The photos are absolutely stunning, capturing every emotion and detail with such artistry that we’re still in awe every time we look at them. During the proposal, they were discreet yet perfectly positioned to catch every heartfelt moment. The engagement session was fun and relaxed, with their creative direction helping us feel natural in front of the camera. And on our wedding day, they went above and beyond, blending into the background while documenting every laugh, tear, and dance move with breathtaking precision. The quality of their work is unmatched—vibrant colors, perfect lighting, and a knack for capturing candid moments that tell our story beautifully. They delivered the photos promptly, and the editing was flawless, enhancing the natural beauty of each moment without feeling overdone. Their communication was top-notch, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. They listened to our vision and brought it to life in ways we didn’t even imagine. If you’re looking for the best photography for your special day, Este Photo is the way to go. We’re already excited to work with them again for future milestones!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommend!

Marcos was, without question, one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.
We had him for two days, one day for the wedding and one day taking photos in Zion, and he was ama...
zing the entire time. Marcos is the kind of person you immediately feel lucky to have found.
Marcos made us feel completely comfortable behind the camera. My wife and I are not great in front of a camera (awkward, stiff, no clue what to do lol). But with Marcos, none of it even felt like a photoshoot. It honestly felt like we were hanging out with a friend who just happened to be ridiculously talented with a camera.
He captured us in a way that feels real. He feels like someone you have known forever, and because of that, the photos do not feel stiff or forced. They feel like us. They feel happy, emotional, comfortable, and real.
His direction was perfect. He knew exactly when to guide us, how to pose us, where to stand, what to do, and how to make everything look effortless. His eye for locations and lighting was incredible, especially in Zion. He would see a spot and somehow know it was going to be amazing, and then the photos would come out even better than we expected.
And the photos themselves are insane. The editing, the colors, the emotion, the scenery, the candid moments... everything! Looking through them brought us right back to the weekend. He captured not just what it looked like, but what it felt like.
I genuinely cannot say enough good things about Marcos. He did not just take photos for us. He made the whole experience better. He made us feel comfortable, cared for, and excited, and then gave us photos we will cherish for the rest of our lives.
Everyone should hire him. Seriously. Marcos is incredible, and he will absolutely blow you away.
Any questions?
