LightHouse Photo Group By Gustavo Tessaro

Gustavo, we do not know how we can thank you guys enough. You are simply amazing. We are left speechless by how great our experience has been with you. We are keeping you for life!

Photography is going to be one of the most important wedding planning decisions you will make. A photo can remind you of a memory, though when the moment is captured perfectly, you get to relive the memory and the way you felt. We are eternally grateful to Gustavo and his incredibly talented team for taking us back to the happiest day of our lives many times over. Their work is first class. They are extraordinarily well prepared. We had the pleasure of simply going on the ride of our lives together. They lead us from one perfectly setup shot to the next. They executed a perfect mixture of planned and spontaneous photography. Their professionalism and attention detail completely removed us from the logistics and enabled us to savor every moment of our wedding. Advice from a happy couple: Do the documentary! There is no better way to relive all of the small yet incredibly beautiful moments of your wedding. You definitely want to get a teaser and highlight video. They are great to share with friends. The documentary is something we will cherish the rest of our lives. Have at least 2 photographers and 2 videographers. We absolutely love being able to see both of our reactions in so many moments. I cannot imagine our video with just one videographer.

Everyone needs to RUN and book Gustavo and his crew for their wedding! This team truly is one of kind, not only did they make my big day flow easier, but they also spoke to me with authenticity and emotion while comforting me throughout the day. They were great with communication since day 1 and shot exactly what I had wanted, and overall, everyone on the team were just great people. We were in complete awe at the preview pictures we received THE NIGHT OF the wedding, they were stunning! I got married at the Waterview in Monroe, CT and Gustavo and his crew were already familiar with the venue and knew exactly what shots to capture and how to make them look perfect. Although it had rained on my wedding day, that didn’t stop Gustavo from wanting to get the most BEAUTIFUL shots outside. We also decided to get a photo booth from them, the week of the wedding and Gustavo was able to accommodate that. It was a crowd favorite and the memories made are unforgettable. Not to mention, Netty, who ran the booth, did it with a smile on her face and interacted with the guests, and I am truly grateful for that. My husband and my family are forever grateful for this amazing team of talented photographers and videographers. I cannot recommend them enough!

Words can't even describe how amazing Gustavo and Igor were as our wedding photographers . They were extremely friendly and professional and made the day so fun! We had a destination wedding in Florida and they went above and beyond to capture all the beautiful aspects of our venue (especially the sunset). The same night of the wedding we were already receiving sneak preview pictures (which were hundreds!). Every single wedding guest of ours commented on how beautiful the pictures were and how they look like they came from a magazine. Thank you so so much Gustavo and team for making our wedding day perfect. Jenna and Jason 10/22/23 at Powel Crosley Estate

Words cannot describe how truly grateful we are to have found this photography team for the most important day of our lives!! Igor and Luisa were the photographers for our wedding at Aria, and I could not have asked for a more amazing team to fully capture how magical our wedding day was. They knew this venue WAY more than my husband and I, so they knew the best places and best lighting that was needed to capture pictures that seriously look like they came out of a wedding magazine!! They were exceptionally nice and fun people too, which made both my husband and I feel very comfortable with posing naturally infront of the camera. Igor was great with directing us how to pose naturally and create beautiful pictures that we will look at for the rest of our lives!!! Our family and friends cannot stop talking about how stunning all of our photos were, and I owe it all to this amazing photography team! In less than 10 hours after the end of our wedding, we received nearly 200 previews!!!! We cannot wait to see the rest of the gorgeous masterpieces that they shot on our wedding day! 10/6/23 will forever be the best and most memorable day of our lives, and I am so glad we had Igor and Luisa there to capture the fairytale wedding for us! Book this group ASAP for your wedding, you will absolutely not regret your decision!!!

Gustavo and Julianna are the best! We used them for engagement and wedding! So far we only received the previews for the wedding (which was two days ago) and we are in love!!! We can’t wait for the rest of the photos. Julianna is so sweet and so easy to work with! We had the best time and can’t wait to see the rest. Beautiful work, such great photographers. - Stephanie & Austin 10/20/23

Juliana and Vinny made our day perfect. They captured every moment possible. Communication from start to finish was great. I didn't have to request anything special, they knew exactly what to capture and made it even more amazing than we could imagine. HIGHLY recommend!!

When we started planning our wedding and came across Gustavo’s work, we knew this was the team that we wanted to work with. Juliana was our photographer for our engagement shoot and was assisted by Luiza for our wedding day on August 19th, and we couldn’t be happier with the pure talent and photos. We were shocked how quickly we received our engagement photos and even the sneak peak photos from our wedding, which we were sent the night of the wedding! Our photos are beyond stunning, and this team was truly incredible and so fun to work with. We could not recommend them more! If we could give more than 5 stars we would!

Gustavo and his team exceeded expectations in every way possible. He was extremely professional while still being personable and friendly. He is incredibly creative, as he provided us with a wide range of beautiful photos and video from classic shots and candids, to unique examples we hadn’t seen from anyone else. Guatavo only uses the best equipment available, and the quality of the photos speak for themselves. We would recommend him to anyone who is looking for the best when it comes to photo and video for their special day.

Gustavo and his team were absolutely fantastic on our wedding day! We got married on June 3rd, 2023 and wanted both photo and video. They went above and beyond for us and we couldn't have been happier with the work we received from them. The pictures were absolutely stunning and we were beyond shocked at how fast we received proofs! (We were on the shuttle bus back to the hotel when I received about 100 photos and my husband and I were ecstatic!) We also received a short video as well as an hour long video of our entire wedding that we are so excited to watch and relive for years to come! Gustavo and his team are not only talented, but were so fun to work with on our wedding day! We highly recommend them!

Gustavo and his team are phenomenal! Don’t second guess, Book NOW! I seen Gustavo’s portfolio and recognized that his reputation with venues and on IG / social media was top notch. I had reached out to Gustavo and his team to inquire about services and although I loved his work, I wasn’t sold on whether or not to actually book. After numerous attempt to search out other vendors and confirming Gustavo was still available, we had the opportunity to meet him and Julianna at a showcase (and they were still available - fate/destiny!). They had the ability to connect with us and create authentic dialogue without being a pushing a salesperson /vendor. My partner and I discussed our interactions and encouraged me to go with my gut!! And Gustavo and Julianna did not disappoint! They were extremely easy to work with and accommodating to our needs. I really wanted our engagement photos to be elegant/formal photos, and wanted to use the Atrium at Hartford City Hall and Elizabeth Park to capture the look. In order to capture the flowers in Bloom we scheduled a photoshoot for later mid-June ( a couple of weeks before our July 2023 wedding). Gustavo ensured we’d be able to have out photos back within a week so that we can use them for wedding decor. Not only did they meet our expectations, they exceeded our expectations. First, for engagement photos. Julianna ensured we hit both locations in Hartford (1hr away) and took time to capture the beauty of the moment. There was no rush and she asked if there was any other shoots we needed or wanted before moving to the next location or leaving. Based off previous conversations we assumed that we wouldn’t get pictures for a week however, Julianna advised we’d get a preview within 2 days. Well you can imagine the surprise and excitement we had when less than 2 hrs after our shoot we had a preview of photos. The preview photos did not disappoint… they were “stunning”! We were blown away at how amazing we looked and the quick turn around time. We all know the dread of waiting for anything especially photos but Gustavo and Julianna came through with the instant gratification of having preview photos for us to see immediately. Second, for the wedding. Gustavo and his team accommodated extended wedding photography coverage to meet out needs. While we agreed he’d meet the bride and bridesmaids at the bridal suite and Julianna would meet the groom and groomsmen at the venue, Gustavo arrived slightly early to capture photos of the groom and groomsmen before they left for the venue. The intentional thinking ahead to create a holistic presentation of our day was beyond thoughtful and displayed his commitment to profession and his brand. At the wedding they captured all of must have pictures. They were professional and attentive to our needs, so much so that Julianna started taking pictures of the bride and family even though it was during the dinner. Their ability to be proactive and serve us in ways we didn’t think of or ask was considerably great service. Gustavo and the team collaborated with our DJ who had displayed out engagement photos on his booth monitors to add same day wedding picture. Can you imagine how blown away we was to sit down to have dinner and see the monitors displaying wedding pictures?!? It was the sweetest and most thoughtful /creative touch for the bridal party and guests - everyone usually sees the photographer taking pictures but don’t always get to see how wonderful they are. Well Gustavo and Julianna and the team nailed it! Lastly, even though the wedding day was long and hot, Gustavo and his team managed to get us a sneak peak of the wedding day photos that night /early morning. The service, professionalism, and quality is undoubtedly next level! Don’t trust anyone else… Book NOW!
