Max did a great job shooting our wedding. He was very professional, and overall an awesome photographer
Mr. Max Esgusquiza was an outstanding photographer during our wedding day last December, 2024. His professionalism made me and my wife be comfortable with him from the moment of in...
troduction until the end of the event. Beyond that, he extended his help and went beyond his way to make sure we have all the crucial memories captured from our special day. It is hard to entrust any other photographer this huge responsibility on an important milestone in your life but Max Esgusquiza made that easy for us.
Max was an absolute trooper and was great to work with. We were running behind from the start but he was great about giving directions, making suggestions, and getting what we coul...
d within such a tight schedule. Max was flexible and easy to work with. He was able to get some amazing shots even though we had to change the location of our first look (twice!). If we asked "Can we....?" The answer was always Yes. He made it happen. He was fully committed to giving us his best from the time he got to the venue.
Max was the absolute perfect photographer! Not only was he respectful and professional he was personable. He was like one of my family members. As soon as he showed up to the brida...
l suite he immediately jumped into action. He made sure to capture important details, everyone involved and 'in the moment" moments where me and my friends/family members were laughing and dancing. Being a woman who has struggled must of my life with severe body image issues, Max made me feel beautiful. Max would show me pictures of myself after taking them and would give me compliments that really made me feel beautiful. He told me to be confident, which is the pep talk I needed. To me, that is of the upmost importance. Picture are forever, and they should be reminders of a special day without needing to feel bad about how you look. I am very pleased with how the photographs came out but most importantly this experience with Max! I would highly recommend.
Excellent work works well with capturing memories would request again if needed

and his team's professionalism and would recommend them time over time again.
Very professional, he even offered to stay 15 minutes overtime to help us get all of the shots we wanted when I got sick and had to step out of the reception for a little while
We were so thankful to have Max capture our special wedding moments. We had a micro-wedding with only about 20 people and Max helped us think of what we may want to capture and he ...
made sure we got everything we wanted! I would recommend Max to anyone. Thank you!
My husband and I loved having Max Egusquiza and his team as our wedding photographers! Max is very easy to work with and has a nice calming presence about him. We had multiple conv...
ersations before our engagement and wedding photos were done, which made us feel at ease with him quickly. On such a hectic and fast-moving day they provided great service that never felt in the way while also getting all of our special moments captured. Our photos came out gorgeous and the abundance of options is fantastic. I would definitely recommend having Max there for you at your special occasions as well!
Max was an excellent photographer, he communicated with us several times over the weeks leading up to our event, making sure he understood the vision that we had and what we wanted...
. He was prompt on the day of the wedding and worked hard to facilitate some excellent photos of our event. Would absolutely recommend him to other couples
Wonderful with making the most of the time he had with us. Throughout the night, many guests said they were impressed that he was able to capture the memories without "getting in t...

Max Raul Egusquiza was the photographer of our wedding in New Haven. We highly recommend him! After we saw the beautiful work on his website, we were sure we wanted him to be the p...
hotographer of our special day. Since the first contact, he was very responsive, friendly and professional. He made the entire process smooth and easy. The pictures came out beautifully, capturing artfully very special moments. The drone shots were spectacular!
Max was the photographer assigned for our wedding (ceremony in Mystic and reception at Essex Steam Train in Essex CT) on July 7, 2023 via our contract with Eivan's. He was very pro...
fessional and punctual, including reaching out in advance to verify the timeline and details and shots we wanted included, being very thorough in capturing images and poses, making good use of his surroundings for creative and aesthetic shots and practical effects (such as airing my veil for some cool, modern photos), and he made us feel comfortable. I want to also note how generous he was with his time! Because of stop and go traffic on our way to the reception venue, our timeline got skewed a little over a half hour. And although we didn't end up being able to get wedding portrait photos outside/on the trains at the reception venue (during cocktail hour as planned), he made up for it by staying an extra hour for a really decent price to capture important wedding events and we did get quite a few photos of just the two of us at our ceremony location to make up for it. My only critique is that we were pulled at a few inconvenient times during the reception aka when we were in the middle of dancing or right after the cake cutting when we were about hype the guests up as the dancefloor was opening to set a fun mood, but overall we had a really positive experience with Max from start to finish and can't wait to see the pictures!
We had Max as our photographer for our wedding day. He arrived on time, was prepared with all of his equipment, and was very professional. He directed each of us in the wedding par...
ty and took multiple shots of everyone. He made us all feel comfortable in front of the camera. He captured every moment of our wedding perfectly, including the ‘getting ready’ shots with the bridesmaids and groomsmen to the very end of the reception. We received over 1500 images from Max. The gallery was shared with our friends and family who have all complimented the photos that Max took. We highly recommend Max and are so glad that he was there on our special day. Thank you for everything that you did for us!
