WOW! My fiancé and I are blown away by our engagement photos that Mauricio took. They came out even better than we could have imagined. Mauricio made us feel comfortable, gave us great tips, and listened to our vision. You could feel his passion for what he does and he was able to capture our emotions through the camera so well. He went above and beyond for our photo shoot and got our pictures back to us so quickly! We couldn’t be more happy after our engagement shoot and we know we are in great hands for our wedding! So excited to see what he can capture on our big day. I highly recommend!
Very professional and friendly right from the beginning. We got along well day of with our photographer, and he was very attentive to getting all the photos we wanted. We loved how all of our photos came out, and he was also very patient with all of our requested edits for the photo album. The album itself is really nice quality as well. Overall we're very happy with the experience!
Hariel Xavier photography was the photographer for my best friends wedding. I was a bridesmaid and the team captured the most beautiful photos.

very professional and brought a certain je ne c'est quoi that uncaptured our magical day forever.
Maurico and crew were absolutely outstanding. He made me and my bride look like movie stars. Incredibly kind and professional! You felt like they weren't even there. Their budget was incredibly fair, and they were a blast to work with. Highly recommending them to all my other friends looking for professional event photography.
Hariel Xavier Photography an his team were absolutely amazing from beginning to end. They worked very well with the videography team we picked. Mauricio helped me create a package for my wedding that fit our budget and I could not be more satisfied with the outcome! Communication was excellent and they really exceeded my expectations, I mean I knew they were talented but WOW!! Our engagement photos were also amazing. Thank you a million times!!! You will NOT be disappointed booking them for your special day.
First of all we cannot say enough about Mauricio and his 2nd shooter. Mauricio was on point!!!! First We would like to start off by saying prior to our wedding, the time, the energy and the detail that Mauricio spent with us was so beneficial to both him and us. Mauricio did not rush any time he met with us. He laid all the ground work to prepare us for our special day. When I say that when these guys showed up, they showed up ready to work. The detail, the passion that went into every single photo that they took was just simply amazing. They took charge, they did not disappoint at any given time. Mauricio as we started calling him Mo was under pressure and we had a lot going on and he had every single detail under control. Mo was so hyped from the minute he walked through the door. Here’s what we can tell you about our wedding day.....detail, detail, and detail! His tired less approach towards perfection of every photo may be exhausting to someone else but not Mauricio. He knew what we were looking for and boy did he deliver. Not only does Mauricio bring his artistic expertise into his photos, his passion is exhibited as well. When Mauricio took photos on our wedding day he captured every smile, every kiss, every heartfelt emotion, ever candid photo, every moment period! Mauricio was such a great person to be around, his patience, enthusiasm and bubbly energy took our wedding day to another level. Mauricio didn’t just shoot our wedding, he was part of our wedding. He became part of our family. This will be an everlasting moment that will never leave us. We will forever be grateful of “Hariel Xavier Photography” we highly recommend using this company, we promise, you won’t be disappointed. Best of the best hands down!!!!
I can not thank Mo at Hariel Xavier Photography enough for his continued professionalism throughout this whole process. He is truly passionate about his craft and is upfront/honest about everything. He is not the type to get every single dime in your pocket, he is about informing you on what is needed but always reminded at the fact that everything is your choice. My husband and I felt at ease with the whole process from the initial sit down to the cold engagement shoot and finally to the wedding. He felt like a family friend instead of a photographer. He took about every shot imaginable on our wedding day and we extremely excited about the final outcome. Thank you again, Mo!
Mauricio was very professional and made sure all my requests were met. Easy to communicate with from beginning to end. The day of the wedding, his presence felt natural. He captured the best moments and made the final product look like a dreamy love story. I highly recommend him for your wedding day.
From our first interaction Mo was extremely helpful and informative. He guided me in choosing the package that was right for my big day. Mo is very organized and professional. We had numerous talks about the details of the day, what my expectations were and what he would deliver. His portfolio is consistent and what he delivered was exactly what I had saw when I booked him. On the day of, he arrived early to introduce himself, get set up and scope the venue for the best photo ops. Mo was pleasant to work with and brought a great vibe. He encouraged a fun atmosphere— bringing playfulness and movement into our shoots instead of just pose and shoot. His creativity and eye for detail really is superb. Mo and his photography & videography team worked well with our other day of vendors. His turn around time for delivery of our final products was within the expected time frame. I have recommended him to all of my family and friends and hope you chose to work with him! You certainly will not be disappointed.
Very professional, had a lot of ideas for our engagement and wedding pictures. Made me feel calm. The pictures are amazing
We hired Mauricio at Hariel Xavier Photography to shoot our wedding. He was very professional and easy to work with. We picked him to be our photographer because of his awesome portfolio and he uses top-of-the-line equipment. Will definitely choose him for future events.
I believe that there a few aspects of a wedding are of extreme importance. A couple's engagement shoot and wedding pictures are one of the most important. Why? I think we can all agree that your pictures are what will retell your story of one of the most important days of your life together.
Working with Mauricio was truly the best decision we made. The last thing we wanted was to feel stressed or unsure of any of our decisions and thankfully, he was a great asset to us! Mauricio's professionalism, knowledge of his craft and his ability to tell our story was simply amazing! It is beyond helpful when the person you entrust to capture all the perfect moments of a special day is confident and willing to go over and beyond for you. Mauricio's vision truly proved to be unique, moments we weren't even aware of were captured and brought much emotion to us when we saw the final product. We could not be any more thrilled than we are with his work and have no hesitation to work with him again. He truly made our day even more special and we are eternally grateful for the beautiful memories he captured for us!
Hariel Xavier Photography is definitely what your looking for when your booking for weddings, engagement shoots and more. He shows you excitement about his work and right away makes you feel comfortable and free to explore locations and ideas. You could tell he is very passionate about what he does as well as very creative. His attention to detail is phenomenal, he will notice things that most people/photographers would overlook and not even capture. Even though he is totally up for natural look and natural feeling photographs everything looks and seems perfect when he captures. His attention and patience to most amazing things completely blows my mind. I truly felt like a princess at my bridal shoot not to mention that I got to experience being at one of the amazing places with so much nature and life. Mauricio will totally make you feel at ease while taking photos with him, such enthusiasm and positive energy throughout the day. He totally shows that he truly loves what he's doing and he puts his heart into his work. He is a true artist who can make the most memorable moments a memory of a life time. I would totally recommend him for your special day as he totally made mine.
I had Mauricio and his assistant Jonathan do the photography for our wedding. Not only are they very personable but extremely passionate about their work. Anyone can take a photo, but when you are passionate about what you do, that makes things 10x as amazing as beautiful. I had a list of photos I wanted taken and they were both very supportive of my shots that I wanted taken. Not only did they make sure I got every one of my ideas taken, they also did even more of their own ideas! They both brought so much energy and passion to the day plus they were extremely helpful with the flower girl and getting her to be comfortable in taking pictures.
I also used Mauricio for our engagement photos and they came out amazing. I used them for our wedding invitations and I put some on display in our venue. I can't wait to see how our wedding photos came out!!
Mauricio’s passion and unique vision captured our wedding in a style that reflects us. Our story is reflected in each shot, candid moments we’ll forever hold in our hearts. We loved how he captured the REALITY of our special day – from the nervous bride running the aisle to the happy tears to wiggly children to eye-rolls and quirky laughters. We aren't traditional people by any means & it was important to us that our wedding reflect our quirkiness. We didn’t want our wedding photos to be glossed over with generic, awkward poses & forced smiles. Mauricio captured photos that are truly authentic. The images are reflections of our personalities! He captured every special moment that meant the world to us.
Mauricio is authentic, consistent, effective, and efficient and incredibly talented. We felt he is more like a friend than the photographer we simply hired. We felt such ease at our engagement and wedding photo shoots. Our photos are repeatedly admired coz they stand out in the most glorious of ways with natural, pure fun shining through each one. Thank you Mauricio!! We love you and looking forward to working with you again!!! —- M & G; September 28, 2018.
