Hellen and Rafael made our wedding day so special and stress-free. I can't recommend them enough. Communication all around was excellent (before the wedding and afterward.) The pictures are stunning and exactly what we wanted. 10/10!!
After I met Hellen I didn’t have any doubt that she would be the photographer of our wedding. She is so talented, her pictures are absolutely stunning, she is able to capture the real moment with such a beautiful perspective. I was so glad to have a professional that could speak with my guests in English and Portuguese which made things much easier for us. She was professional, on time and very kind to everyone. I loved working with her!
Hellen and Rafael were the best wedding photography and videography duo that we could’ve possibly asked for! They were so accommodating and worked around all sorts of obstacles while still making sure to capture so many beautiful moments from our special day. The fact that they also spoke Portuguese was a huge blessing since my wife’s family is from Brazil. We were over the moon with the photos and videos, literally couldn’t be happier. I would recommend Hellen and Rafael to anyone for any of their photography and videography needs!!
Excellent service and quick turn around. You can tell Hellen is really passionate about her craft because it shows in her work. Pleasant experience and makes the consumer feel comfortable. The quality of the photos are EXCELLENT! I highly recommend Hellen CO photos for your wedding photos, engagement or any occasion.
WORTH. THE. MONEY.
Hellen and her team did a phenomenal job on our wedding photos and video! They turned out so much better than we could’ve ever hoped for! My husband and I do not enjoy being the center of attention, but Hellen and her whole team made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera! They were all so friendly and kind with their directions, and even though there were 5 people at our wedding for photo and video we hardly noticed them.
These photos will be cherished forever and I am so thankful that Hellen and her team were able to capture the love and joy of our special day so perfectly. You NEED Hellen Co Photos for your wedding day!
Hellen and her team were amazing to work with. The vibe they bought on the big day was amazing and helped us keep calm. I would recommend her to all the future brides and grooms planning their big day!
We were looking for timeless, romantic with warmth and candid shots with photography and videography package; Hellen, Rafael, and Team are wonderful to work with! They are all we wished for our wedding day=) From the beginning, Hellen wanted to know us better of asking our love story, how we met, what we like, what are our fave foods, shows, music, etc. After they detail oriented a contract package and timeline which I love so everyone is on the same page. During our engagement shoot, Hellen & Rafael were calm, easy going and fun with amazing directions as they shoot our poses. They made us laugh and made us feel loved<3 This continued on during our wedding day; Hellen, Rafael, Goose, and Christine( I'm sorry If don't spelled your name right) were also professional and quick thinking with every shot! They made sure our family shot list is all checked and arrange each group to their positions correctly. I made my own wedding dress and they did a great job capturing little details and the whole look.
Also made us feel like stars lol. There were minor issues with timing but they're personality overlook them=) Thank you sooo much!! for making our day happy!
Hellen and her photographers were an absolute pleasure to work with! I used her for a surprise proposal and she helped me plan all the little details and the photos exceeded all my expectations! My fiancée and I are obsessed with the photos. Her team was so easy to work with and made the engagement shoot fun! Highly highly recommend!
Hellen was absolutely AMAZING! She has the sweetest energy and coolest disposition about herself. Which made her so comfortable to work with. My fiancé and I have NEVER taken professional pics together. So, needless to say we needed guidance. She gave us so much inspiration throughout the shoot. Walked us through how to create the chemistry we naturally share in real life. Her final product was just amazing! She took out vision and maximized to another level. She also shoots very soft and natural which I personally love. She shot our engagement photos and we can’t wait to work with her again on our wedding photos!
When we decided to hire a photographer and videographer for our wedding I knew we had to hire Hellen Oliveira Photography. We cannot express just how grateful we are to have had Hellen and her team as a part of our day. Thank you for all the exceptional work you delivered. From engagement photos to wedding day photos, we are absolutely in love with everything.
For those reading the reviews trying to decide whether you should or should not hire Hellen and her team, here’s my advice to you: You will NOT be disappointed to hire them, so don’t wait to book them because I am sure they get booked prettyyyy quick. 🙃🤪
Thank you again Hellen! 🤍 best of luck with your business!
Y’all, look no further than Hellen Oliveira and her team. I could not have asked for a better photography team for our engagement pictures and our wedding day. Hellen and her crew went above and beyond for us to not only capture every special moment we were wanting, but to also make sure we were well taken care of throughout the night. I am clueless when it comes to posing for photos, but Hellen walked me through every step and made me feel at ease. She was always very responsive, and worked with us for anything we were needing, even our last minute requests. I’m so thankful we hired them to be a part of our day and capture all the special moments we will cherish for a lifetime.
From our very first introduction call with Hellen we knew she is exactly the type of photographer we want to hire for our special day! And so we went ahead and secured the date right away! Hellen is very organized and on top of everything, she provided us with a long list of great locations to choose from for our engagement pictures, a questionnaire to get to know us better, and helped her figuring out what we like/ dislike . She also creates her own photography timeline which’s extra work that not many photographers do! She’s reachable and very responsive anytime you need her. She cares about what the bride and groom want and are looking for, unlike other photographers that I've dealt with in the past who didn't bother to ask what we are expecting from them.! Hellen is truly incredible, despite being 9 months pregnant, she made it to our wedding and was able to capture lots of fun moments, she and Rafael (her husband who's a videographer) make the perfect team! Her assistant Natalia and Rayssa were also amazing, they went above and beyond to capture me and my husband as we were getting ready.
Both of our engagement & wedding pictures turned out absolutely AMAZING!! We got countless compliments on them! I would definitely work with her again.
Let me preface this by saying book Hellen Oliveira Photography today!
Originally, we did not know if we wanted a videographer or not. We saw a friend's wedding video and immediately knew we needed one. We got Hellen from a recommendation and her and her team instantly solidified our decision. Hellen made the paperwork, timeline, and correspondence a breeze. She was easy to get a hold of and very responsive.
On our wedding she and her crew showed up, cameras rolling and ready! Hellen came as well despite being pregnant. It showed the commitment to her craft and the investment she takes in her client relationships.
Our sneak peek and final video were more than we could have asked for. It was great to watch and see parts of the wedding that we were hurried through or parts we didn't even get to see!Can't recommend it enough. The video was HD quality and is only going to get more enjoyable to watch over time.
100% recommend.
We are absolutely in love with our video! Hellen captured every moment that we could've imagined and the moments we never got to see. If you are considering a videographer, she is absolutely the best and you will love the final product!
If you are a bride looking for a friendly and talented photographer who goes above and beyond to create masterpieces, look no further than Hellen Oliveira Photography! I am a bride who is boderline obsessive about documenting memories, and I'm so glad I discovered Hellen and her husband. They are creative, dependable, consistent, and great communicators. It's a wonderful feeling knowing I've hired the best and that I don't need to worry about a thing.
Absolutely perfect video and so fast on the return time! Couldn’t be happier with our video!
We had the pleasure of having Hellen as our photographer for both of our wedding and engagement photos, and wow is she amazing! Her husband Rafael was there for both as well and captured amazing footage for our wedding video. I can not explain how awesome these two are! They are so nice and easy to work with. I can be very shy and nervous when it comes to having my picture taken but they made me feel so comfortable the entire time. I am so glad they were able to capture these moments for us and I would recommend them to anyone! I can not thank them enough for helping make our big day so special!
One of the biggest challenges I faced on finding a photographer for our special day was the fact that I was doing a destination wedding. I had to plan my entire wedding from a different state! Lucky enough my lovely sister n law helped me find Hellen. She was recommended to her by another photographer! When I checked out Hellen’s Instagram and FB I loved the pictures I saw! We had a phone conversation and Hellen asked me about my wedding style to get a feel of what I was looking for! I felt like we had an instant connection on the phone!
On our big day Hellen was great! She was prompt and on time! I felt like everything ran smoothly and she even got some good pictures of my not so cooperative 3 year old son!
When I got the pictures back they were absolutely stunning! She captured everything I could hope. The reality is once your wedding day is over, all you have is pictures to help you remember your big day! I have had numerous compliments on my wedding photographer! If anybody is on the fence about who they should hire as their photographer, I would defiantly go with Hellen! She won’t let you down I promise!
Hellen is absolutely amazing! We hired her for family photos with our 3 month old and she was able to truly capture us in some of the most beautiful photos. We’ll definitely be using her again in the future!
Hellen is incredible! After COVID derailed multiple wedding plans, we decided to get married in the mountains of North Carolina. A friend highly recommended Hellen so we decided to reach out and see if she was available for our minimony. From the very first communication Hellen was extremely responsive and helpful, providing location recommendations and other suggestions. A week and a half before our wedding, we had a last minute venue change. Hellen was completely understanding and accommodating of the change.
On the wedding day itself, Hellen and her husband Rafael were beyond amazing. They were such a calming, guiding, supportive presence and helped lead my husband and I as well as our immediate families through it all. She captured the raw emotion and magic of the day SO incredibly well. We feel so fortunate with how everything worked out and that Hellen and Rafael were a part of our intimate day.
After our wedding, she posted sneak peeks the very next day and our teaser video 3 days later! Our family and friends who were not able to be there were amazed at how beautiful the pictures and video were! I would HIGHLY recommend booking Hellen for wedding, engagement session, or any event. We will treasure the moments she captured for the rest of our lives.
Hellen was really amazing from start to finish with our engagement photos. From suggesting locations, to being flexible with our change of plans (we initially wanted an adventure shoot and then changed to just a "normal" shoot), to very very helpful in guiding up on the day of in terms of how to position our bodies, faces, hands, etc and then ultimately producing fantastic photos! She was a pleasure to work with and we love the final product! I highly recommend!
Photography is an investment and Hellen is worth every penny and more. Her passion for photography shows in the amazing quality of her work. Both my husband and I aren't usually the most comfortable in front of a camera- not only did she make us feel at ease, she made it fun. She capture every moment beautifully. We honestly love every single one of our photos. In addition to being an incredible photographer, I think brides will appreciate her calm demeanor, professionalism, and timeliness- I received my photos back within 3 weeks of the wedding. We highly recommend Hellen and will definitely book her again for any future photography needs.
Hellen was our photographer for both our engagement and wedding photos (for our wedding we were also lucky enough to have her husband, Rafael)! I could not recommend these two enough. I am typically awkward and have never had professional photos done like this before. I was so nervous at the beginning but that went out the window as soon as I met Hellen. She is WONDERFUL at what she does and makes you feel so comfortable. Before you know it, you feel like you are hanging out and taking photos with two new friends :) The photos are incredible - it's hard to choose a favorite! <3 If you want beautiful photos and a fun experience then I highly recommend Hellen!
Thank you for making our day so special!!
Hellen and her team made our day extremely special. I never thought I could be apart of such amazing photographs. I have watched the video she made too many times, and I am still amazed. Thanks for capturing such a special moment for us.
We absolutely loved working with Hellen and her husband on our wedding day! My husband and I are not “in front of the camera” people so we loved how she took control and told us what to do, where to stand and how to look at her. We’re so thankful! You will 100% what her in your corner on your wedding day! She knows how to capture your day - from the big moments to the small details. We cannot stop talking about how great she did! I know I’ll be recommending her to all my friends for their big day! We cannot thank her enough!!
Seriously, please, consider Hellen for all your media needs! I hired her for my June 2020 wedding and everything I have received from her has been magical. Every interaction was kind and positive, which is huge when communicating with vendors during MONTHS of planning (especially dealing with COVID-19 on top of everything). She offers a lot in each package which is hard to find. Her editing style is stunning. She has all the best equipment. Her site and communication is prompt, organized, and professional. We received our pictures and video back pretty quickly, which is sometimes a problem I heard about other photographers.
Hellen listens to what you want and makes it happen! My favorite story of her is when we took our first look pictures at Mission San Juan Capistrano and staff was being very strict (probably because of COVID-19) and came over to tell us that we are 2 min over our hour and we need to leave (even though they made us late getting started because they almost didn’t let our whole party in, which was confirmed with the director beforehand). So we were bummed and slowly started making our way towards the exit, but Hellen would stop us and say, “Oooh, this is pretty. Let’s get a couple shots here“. Hahaha it made us laugh because we were technically leaving, but I love that she was strong and brave enough to get us our shots because they turned out beautiful! Thank you, Hellen!
I feel like when I saw outstanding reviews, I would think it’s possible that this bride is getting a discount or something for a good review. I can promise you that this is not the case here. I strongly believe in lifting others up in their business if they are amazing. I am being so genuine when I say Hellen and her team were one of the best decisions I made 😊
Hellen was great! She was kind and easy to work with. She truly captured the bride and groom's day so perfectly. We are so grateful for her services!
Hellen was awesome! Fun, easy to work with and such a lovely human being :) Our family is crazy and were all in bad moods about the photoshoot hahaha and yet she managed to get amazing photos for us!!
We had the absolute best photo session with Hellen while she was in Los Angeles! Being a photographer myself I can be extra picky. Hellen was AMAZING!! Her direction was easy and made for remarkable photos. My boyfriend and I felt at ease the entire time and could really be ourselves! We left feeling like Hellen and her husband were our new friends and seriously, the pictures are stunning. You can’t go wrong with Hellen
Hellen Oliveira Photography was referred to me by a friend for wedding videography.
Upon emailing Hellen for a quote and communicating with her on our consultation call, I knew, her and her husband, as well as their team were the right choice for our special day. Hellen is thorough, kind, super detail oriented, extremely responsive, and beyond professional. I never had to wait long to hear back from her and she always made me feel 100% confident with the services we would be receiving, and, since the company is expanding, my husband Alex and I, had the pleasure of having Anthony and Sabrina recording all the ins & outs, precious details, etc for our wedding; both of whom were extraordinarily friendly and wonderful representations of Hellen Oliveira Photography.
After our wedding, within days, we had a teaser trailer to view and share, and, in only 4 weeks, we received our final video. We are in love and beyond grateful to the entire Hellen Oliveira Photography team.
I recently worked with Hellen and her videography team on a December 2019 wedding in Greenwood, SC! I was amazed by her professionalism, timeliness and reflexibility throughout the planning process! It is always a pleasure to work with a fellow, team-oriented vendor who not only puts her best interest in mind but also the best interest of the couple. We received the teaser within a few days of the wedding and the full highlight video in less than a month from the wedding day! (Not to mentioned this wedding happened right before the holidays!) I was amazed at how quickly she turned around the footage during such a busy time of year! I have since added Hellen to my preferred vendors list and I have personally recommended her to multiple other clients! I look very forward to working with Hellen in the future!
Thank you again for your help in making Anna Bryce & Cauley's day so special! I know they will cherish your work for many years to come!

Helen and her team are amazing. Our wedding photos came out beautifully. Our photographer was quick, knew how to pose us and was very patient. I would definitely recommend them to capture any special event.
I booked Hellen for my daughter’s wedding - we wanted someone who could do 10 hrs of pictures
She is amazing !! She responds quickly, offers an excellent package, took the best bridal shower pictures, has a keen eye for detail and listened to my requests for pictures in certain locations at our venue. She took spectacular, breathtaking pictures on the wedding day - I cried with tears of joy when I saw them - She captured the very essence of love between my daughter and her husband - and beautiful interactions between our guests at the wedding

Her professionalism and eye for “the perfect shot” have given us a lifetime of memories to enjoy. The final products were jaw dropping gorgeous and uniquely captured. We highly recommend hiring her for you photography and videography needs.
Hellen is an amazing photographer and so easy to work with. My husband and I did a fall photo session with her in hopes of getting a good picture for our Christmas card and maybe to refresh a few frames in our home...and boy, did Hellen deliver! We have tons of great options and are so pleased with the results. Hellen was communicative throughout the planning process and helped find a great shoot location, plus she was so great to work with during the session. Additionally, her turn around time was so quick. We highly recommend Hellen - we know you'll love the photos she delivers as much as we do!
Hellen is amazing! We’ve had her for our engagement session and we can’t wait for her to photograph our wedding. She was so up for anything, which ended up making our photos unforgettable!! She’s so professional and her quality is the real deal. I’ll give an update after the wedding day, but I’m sure it’ll be the same review! Get her as your photographer if you can, you won’t regret it.
Hellen and Rafael are so wonderful to work with!

I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a photographer or videographer for any occasion. You will not be disappointed!
Hellen is such a beautiful person, inside and out! I was so blessed to be able to meet up with her and her husband while on a trip to Savannah, Georgia. The photographs she captured of my boyfriend and I are some of my favorites of all time. She made us feel very comfortable and is just plain amazing at her craft. I can't wait for her to photograph us again in the future. <3
Hellen is THE BEST! She's taken photos of me and my husband as well as some headshots for my website. She does an amazing job of keeping me comfortable in front of the camera and her shots are incredible. She's a must-have for your photography needs!

I love Hellen! She was patient and happy to capture all of our important moments. My pictures turned out beautiful and I couldnt have asked for better pictures!
Hellen photographed a wedding at our venue this past Fall and did an excellent job! She was extremely professional, focused on detail shots and caught the true emotions throughout the night. She was kind to everyone and easy to work with on the schedule. Her photos are outstanding and captured the true essence of the ceremony, reception and people. Would definitely recommend!
Hellen is an awesome photographer! I think her works worth every penny! She knows how to have fun! We love all of our beautiful photos that she delivered to us! It gives us all the feels!!
