Harold Duarte Photography

onal 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!

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 was punctual, detailed and attentive. We will always recommend Harold’s services.

nning perfectly. Harold is sweet and professional. I hired Harold for both my engagement shots, which he made as much fun as possible. We shared a lot of laughs (especially when he showed me a couple of poses he wanted us to try)! Both our wedding pictures and our engagement photos were more beautiful than anything I could have imagined. Highly recommend Harold and his crew for a beautiful, stress free day!

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!

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!

e and how to pose, in order to give us some truly great pictures to enjoy for the rest of our lives. I'd give him more than five stars if I could. My Uncle who is a professional photographer, recommended him for my wedding so I knew he'd be good but he exceeded my expectations. I can't recommend Harold enough. Pick him for your photographer, I promise you won't be disappointed.

old 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

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!

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.

y 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.

never been so fun! anything you need he will do for you! We loved Harold!

red that our wedding was in great hands. He is a Professional artist who takes great pride in his kraft to make sure he captures the most important moments of your occasion. Arriving earlier upon request, he immediately began using his artistic photographic skills to make our wedding the best it could be and catered to our needs. . He was professional, polite, helpful and the price of his work was perfect to meet our needs. He is a gentleman who really enjoys his work. Thank you Harold Duarte for all you did to make our wedding day the finest!

rold guided us through the different shots and poses and put everyone at ease. He worked with our budget and delivered all of our raw images within two weeks!! Harold and his team were beyond kind and fun to work with, cannot recommend enough!

off, because the sticker prices on photographers were scarier than booking a DJ or Florist, for example. However, when I found Harold and met with him, personally, he was very keen on asking me what I was looking for on the day of my wedding. Considering this is my first, and, hopefully, last time planning a wedding, I was not, really, sure, and did not, necessarily, have a great vision for how the day was going to pan out. Despite this, knowing that he was so proactive in delivering such a quality service alleviated much of the stress that came with wedding planning. A week before the wedding, I had one last meeting with Harold before the day to finalize the timeline, other important aspects and key wedding MVPs that had to be photographed. He assured me that whatever I needed, he was, only, a phone call or a text message away, and that he was planning on showing up at the hall, early, to prepare some shots of the venue and get the best lighting. True enough, the day of the wedding came, and the bridal assistant informed me that he had arrived well in advance of our scheduled time and was taking shots of the venue. While we were taking the pictures of the bridal party getting ready, he, constantly, kept the ambiance light to avoid any additional emotional tears from ruining any hair and makeup. He was, truly, a master of ceremonies in keeping the timeline of the church and the reception and all of the pictures in between. He made sure to incorporate who was going to be in what shot and directed the best poses for me and my now husband. Even after the wedding, working with Harold to transition all of the digital files could not have been any easier. He was flexible with his time and was more than happy to provide pre-stamped envelopes to mail back his memory equipment. Lastly, while Harold being bilingual was not the main reason we booked him, it did come in handy, when we had to take shots with some of my other family members, where English is not the first language. All in all, the options and opportunities are, truly, endless, when you choose to work with Harold and his team to meet all of your photography needs on your special day.

ke some candid shots before the guests arrived. You can tell that he really enjoys his work given the kind of shots and angles he was able to capture. He captured the essence and the emotions. He was very accommodating and went over an beyond what what one would typically expect from such an arrangement. We are very pleased with the results and these pictures will be a part of our cherised memories for a long time. I would highly recommend Harold Duarte.

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 fabulous pictures and also having his video man capture every highlight of our beautiful day.

everyone feel like a VIP. Everyone at the wedding loved the beautiful moments captured. I personally loved the attention to us as well as our guests. I would highly recommend Harold for any special occasion.

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). He was also 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!). 

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.

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. 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 love and happiness of the occasion 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.

hy skills! Receiving the photos was also super fast, he even sent me a couple preview pictures! I definitely recommend Harold and his team! I still can’t get over how amazing all the pictures are.

ut the pictures I found to capture exactly what I was looking for, mystical and romantic! Pictures came out great! Can’t wait for my wedding 11.29.2019

n to his talented eye, Harold was very friendly and accommodating. The day of the wedding he was on time, had great ideas for different shots and angles. I felt very comfortable working with Harold. He's got a sense of humor and can dance too! Harold worked well with other vendors such as my photographer, his assistant and my coordinators. Very easy to get along with and has a tremendous amount of talent in his work. He really captured my day just how I imagined it.

with him. Thank you Harold!

essive enough to make sure everyone in the bridal party was doing what they were supposed to but ool enough for everyone to still love him ! He was genuinely there for our best interest and you can tell he loves what he does. It was 100 degrees outside or that’s what’s it felt like anyway in the middle of the day taking pictures, dressed in black and not for one second did he complain or cut our time short because of any sweating or being uncomfortable because god knows we were hot! Instead he made sure he got everything he needed and all the great shots that he thought were necessary to get to assure we have the best wedding photos we could possibly have. He was sensitive to the fact I didn’t want to spend my whole reception taking pictures, however made sure we got sunset pictures and some night time pictures and group family photos but not in an over whelming way. I felt trust in him and the way he was so into getting right angles and making sure little details like a car passing or a person out of place in the background, were out of the way. He was perfect, he made the day seem perfect and he was calm and stress free which made me calm and stress free. I would recommend Harold for ANY event you have because he is the ultimate photographer and really loves what he does. You won’t be disappointed !!!!!

mount of pictures (the more the better!). Harold was also very respectful to all that attended - my guests kept coming up to me telling me how great they thought he was. Thanks again Harold!

e and beyond to make our experience, pictures and video exceptional. If you hire harold you would not regret it!

old for our wedding. He is so friendly & kind and truly cares about you and your dream for your wedding. In our first meeting he mentioned "if you need anything that day you let me know & I will take care of it. " Thinking he was joking, I jokingly said "all we're gonna need is a starbucks frap for me & a redbull for him and we'll be able to make it through the day" and wouldn't you know first thing when he got to us he really brought us our drinks! As well as asked if there was anything we needed or forgot and he would run to get it! They were so careful to help us pose each shot and make sure they got every moment of our day. Me and my mother were joking all day that they were nowhere yet everywhere. They weren't in the way of the moments at all yet every time we turned around they were making sure to get photos of everyone, cake, decorations, dancing, every photo we asked for and a million others. Every little detail & special moment of it they were there. And even helped me keep some secrets for a few surprises we had planned through the day. I cannot ever thank them enough for all the work they put in to making our wedding day such an amazingly perfect experience!

ativity get 5 stars from me!

etc! The most wonderful thing about Harold is that you instantly feel comfortable with him, and you know you can trust him 100%. Every intentention of his is to make sure you as the bride (and groom) have NO worries whatsoever. We had an incident where we forgot important ceremony items back at the house and when my now husband called Harold hoping for his help he delivered immediately, no questions asked! What separates him from every other photographer is that he CARES! You aren’t just paying for photos, and video but along with that you get someone who is just amazing in every way. If there is anything you want / need trust me you will get it. I wanted bacon jerky and..... Harold showed up with not one, but two bags of it! I couldn’t even keep up with how many people came up to me to tell me how great he was, and that’s really saying something when many other people around notice. Harold and Jordan thank you so much for making our special day absolutely perfect, you have no idea how happy you made us!

y afterwards. I look back on all of my photos often and I'm immediately brought back to that day. He was efficient and extremely professional, but still completely laid back and funny. He made everyone feel at ease and got our personalities to really come through in the photos. I'm so happy with everything! Harold's the best!
