s. He was so fun to work with and made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera. Once we got our photos, I could not stop looking through the album because he captured the whole day so perfectly. Each of the photos came out beautiful!

ful Roy was a part of our wedding team.

style of photography. We wanted to have someone that would really capture our love story and wedding day as it was and Roy did not disappoint. We loved our whole wedding album and can’t stop looking at the photos he captured. Even with a little rain during our group photos they still came out beautifully. We are so thankful we had Roy and his team be a part of our wedding day and couldn’t recommend him any more for those who are looking for a great photographer!

i. I happen to stumble upon Roy Nuesca's portfolio by chance and I immediately knew that he was THE ONE! So much that we would have changed our wedding date to ensure we could secure Roy to capture one of the most important days of our lives. The vibe and aesthetic matched exactly what we were envisioning. Roy is an amazing human being. From the initial conversations over email and phone, to our engagement session till the actual wedding day - he was a dream to work with. He made us, the most uncomfortable/awkward couple, feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. We received our photos and we are so incredibly happy with them. He captured so many wonderful moments. Most importantly he captured little moments of my friends and family I didn't have time to experience during the day of. Hiring Roy Nuesca was one of the best decisions we have made as a couple so far :-).

our engagement photos with Roy beforehand, and even though it was our first time taking professional photos, Roy made us feel completely at ease. His gentle cues and suggestions were immensely helpful since we had absolutely no idea how to pose in front of the camera. We chose Roy because we loved his shooting and editing style, but the entire experience of working with Roy was absolutely top notch. I am so in love with how our wedding photos turned out and highly recommend Roy to anyone looking for a great photographer.

ority when budgeting and planning, especially with all of the vendor changes that came with the different dates. When it was all said and done, we both still agree that Roy was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. He was so warm, calm, and made us feel comfortable from the moment we met. My husband and I aren’t 100 percent comfortable being photographed, both a little awkward, but he made it so easy. Roy captured the best moments of our day- and looking at all the photos made us both laugh and cry. When we show our loved ones our photos, each and every one of them are in awe of how Roy captured not only the beauty of our venue, but the smallest details and emotion of our day. He was seriously amazing and couldn’t recommend him more.

edding due to Covid and Roy was extremely flexible with our continuously changing plans. Roy's talent is undeniable and we felt so comfortable taking photos with him. Thank you for everything, Roy! - Tracey + Matt

led everything and managed our event extremely well despite the last minute changes! We are so happy to have been blessed by him and have him capture our special day! The wedding album was beautiful and he was great at making use of the venue and making us feel comfortable during our shoot. He also worked very well with our other vendors as well. I would recommend him to all my up and coming brides/grooms to be :)

whole process. Thank you for everything Roy!

s compliments and inquiries on them. We feel so lucky to have had Roy capture our special day!

and showcasing the exquisite beauty of nature together in such a romantic way. On the day of our wedding, he was so easy to work with, we trusted him to capture what we needed, and we are so happy with the results. We received the most beautiful wedding album yesterday, and it couldn't have come at a better time (a reminder of easier times pre-shutdown!). On top of all of this, Roy is such a kind and gentle person who truly embodies the spirit of aloha. I can't recommend him enough. I'd work with him again in an instant.

he was and he definitely delivered. We're so happy with the final outcome of our photos. Having your pictures taken can be an uncomfortable and awkward experience, but Roy was able to to make it an enjoyable and stress free one. Thank you, Roy! :)

y on who I would choose to photograph our wedding day. A photographer was among one of my most important priorities when booking vendors. He did not disappoint! Thank you for capturing such beautiful moments for us. We will cherish these photos forever!

rfect photographer to capture our wedding day. We found Roy and ended up with beautiful and perfect photos that captured our personalities, our family and friends, and our wedding day so well! Roy is truly talented, and we will cherish the memories that he captured for the rest of our lives! He went above and beyond, and we have such amazing photos! Don’t think twice- definitely go with Roy!

was quick to provide alternative locations that were just as good if not better. Not being used to being photographed were were a little nervous, but Roy's easy going personality made it easy and a pleasure to be in front of the camera. Most importantly the end results are spectacular and are often admired by our friends as family and some of the best wedding photos they have ever seen. His photos are rich, full of life, and never come off as staged. If you are having a wedding in Hawaii, or anywhere for that matter, you need to book this man.

ng part of our wedding!

e our big day. He answered all questions to help ease a nervous bride's mind. He was helpful on the day of helping us take the pictures we wanted. When we got the photos back, I was in tears they were so beautiful. Thank you for making our wedding day dreams come true, Roy!

e story behind each and every little scene. We have been receiving countless complements on them when we show them to families and friends. We are so excited to have them printed out and hang on our walls. As that being said, we really wanted to thank Roy for his great work. It means a whole world for us and it definitely made our wedding day.

touch of creativity. We really trust him. He truly is gifted in taking shots, BUT! also in editing. We love His style in his edits. He has impeccable style, it really took us back to relive those exact moments he captured and you can tell he put in a lot of work in his edits. His pictures are very significant, epic, and breathe taking. He is humble, professional, consistent and relational. These were some of the qualities we were looking for. He certainly went above and beyond for us. Thank you Roy, you truly are an amazing photographer!

y’s style and creative eye after stalking his images online, and were drawn to him because his images tell a story and are artistic – not just the traditional wedding pics. At first, I was really nervous at the idea of FaceTime interviewing our potential photographers, but boy did Roy take away all those nerves within the first 30 seconds. Right from the start he was so kind, genuine and immediately made me feel at ease. When we finally met in person on our wedding day I felt an instant connection and calm around him and his assistant. They made us laugh, made us feel beautiful and captured the moments of our big day perfectly. Then, Roy knocked it out of the park when we did our “post-wedding session” a couple weeks later in Nu’uanu Valley. He was just as excited as we were to stomp through the mud & pouring rain to get unique shots in an entirely different setting. When the final photos came back, my husband and I were blown away! He captured our personalities and our guests and the entire story so well. As a bonus, Roy was a DREAM to work with when it came to communication. We had a challenging time with a lot of our vendors on this, but not him. He was always punctual with email responses and his contract/invoicing/digital download was seamless. His efficiency in this area was top notch and sooooo appreciated! We are forever grateful that we trusted Roy and chose him as our photographer. His talent has helped us freeze time, allowing us to feel the intense emotions of our wedding day for eternity. We cannot thank you enough, Roy! Mahalo!

him. His unique style and attention to nature are everything we wanted in a season where wedding photographs start to all look at the same. Trevor shot our wedding and Roy did our adventurous engagement session. They were the funnest and easiest people to work with, it felt like we were hanging out with friends. Trevor and Roy are so talented and we are forever grateful!

ding, the very first vendor we picked was Roy Nuesca, and we never regretted it for a second. We were stunned by his Instagram feed, and when we spoke to him (via FaceTime, as we were planning the wedding from abroad), we got along instantly. He's a young guy, super nice, super open. At every step of our conversation, and then during the ceremony, he listened to us, joked with us, and helped keep us at ease as he composed his shots. His assistant on the day was just as warm and friendly as him. And the photos... well, his Insta speaks for itself, but suffice it to say they are AMAZING! We had a great time with Roy!

but the different positions couples should be, his art direction, location preferences, EVERYTHING. You can trust him! Many photographers would ask us, as a couple, what we want to do next...and it just gets awkward. Roy didn't do that. He just knew what to do and instructed us in the kindest manner because he is awesome and such a sweet guy!! You will be with your photographer for a very good amount of time for your wedding/engagement shoot, etc...trust me, you want to be with Roy to make you feel comfortable on your big day!

ggestions but also wasn't pushy with direction. If you're considering someone else for your wedding photos, you're not very smart.

tely stunning.

red how special that day was. Roy was punctual and great at communicating throughout the entire process.

him enough for all that he did and for capturing such a special time in our lives, we will cherish these pictures forever! Thanks again!

wedding always is not an easy work, especially for a destination wedding, but we are so happy that Roy's fabulous works made everything worth it! I found Roy on Knot, the moment I opened his portfolio, I decided to choose Roy as my wedding photographer. He is such a talented artist and all of his photos speak for themselves. We met Roy before our wedding day to have the engagement session. He is really easy-going(both my husband and Roy love cars, sneakers and they had the topic always. lol) and fun to work with, PLUS, he is definitely super professional. (We told him we are like Chandler Bing from Friends when we take photos, but Roy made it so easy for us to feel so comfortable to pose, laugh and enjoy in the engagement session). For the wedding day, Roy and his friend were there taking all the detail photos and helping us catch all the moments of our big day. And all the photos I had received from Roy are perfect! I am thinking to have Roy do another couple session on our anniversary and I will definitely recommend Roy to my friends as their couple session, engagement and wedding photographer! Choose Roy, you won't be regrets! :D

and how to avoid traffic. You can tell right away he has lots of experience in Honolulu. On the day of, he and a fellow photographer set a very relaxed tone which allowed me and my husband to be playful which reflected in the photos. He delivered some beautiful shots along with really fun candid moments during the reception. Communication with Roy was easy via email and the price of the package was very reasonable (helped me stay under budget)!

d. Pre-wedding communication and payments were so easy. Then the wedding day - my husband and I really enjoyed working with him. He's so sweet and made it fun for us even though it rained the entire time! Now we have our finished photos and I absolutely love them! It's artsy/classy which perfectly represents how I felt that day captured in a photo. Even the rainy photos look better than if it were a sunny day. I would definitely recommend him to anyone!

n the day of our photo shoot it was half in the rain, but Roy still did an incredible job and no one can even notice the rain in our photos. Overall, Roy made us feel very comfortable throughout the shoot and we would recommend him to everyone.

ion wedding AND on New Years Eve, so planning across the country was quite challenging. But Roy was so helpful throughout the entire process and quick to answer any questions we had via email or text (photograph and non-photography related!). He was punctual, professional, yet comfortable because he still felt like family while taking our pictures. Our wedding day was intimate and so special and Roy captured it all perfectly-even more beautifully than our memories! Needless to say, we are overjoyed to have worked with such a talented and wonderful photographer. From the bottom of our hearts.. THANK YOU, Roy!!

th and trust in our vendors. After seeing Roy’s portfolio and getting a quick response from him via email, we knew our search was over. His pricing is extremely fair for the amount of talent and love that goes into the end product. We find ourselves going back and reliving our wedding day through his photos, which turned out like idyllic paintings. He managed to blend us into all of the natural beauty that surrounded us on our day and capture so many special fleeting moments that we would have never been aware of – he’s truly a talent. Also included in our package was a post-wedding day photo shoot which we booked three days after the wedding. We ended up getting stuck in traffic and arriving on location with only 45 minutes left until sunset. Roy managed to keep us calm and worked quickly to create what ended up being some of our favorite photos! Simply put, his work is absolutely stunning, he has an exceptional eye for his surroundings, and his ability to direct without interfering with the candidness of the shots is truly astounding. Thank you again, Roy!!

d intimate wedding, with only 10 people. It felt like he was a genuine part of our wedding - and his work was absolutely amazing. Roy truly captured the magic on our day.

ard, it is me and my fiance but Roy definitely helped us feel comfortable and let us have fun with our shoot.

to Roy. We warned Roy when we initially met with him that we were a very "non-photogenic"/awkward-in-front-of-the-camera couple and Roy laughed with us saying that it would be OK and that he would be there to help us. That being said, your wedding photographer should be someone who loves what he/she does and who genuinely cares about gifting to you the wedding memories that will last you a lifetime. This is Roy in a nutshell. He is so down to earth, genuine and happy. On top of that, Roy was very flexible and fit in a last minute engagement session for us and even answered an email I sent out the night before the wedding (I was stressing out)! Looking at our photos from our wedding 4 months ago is like re-living and re-feeling all those moments again and again, all thanks to Roy.

or a wedding. He squeezed us in to his already very tight schedule. The day of our sesssion it started as sunny, then cloudy, then rainy and windy, then it was just pouring. Words couldn’t describe how anxious I was cause the place we picked out was outdoor and 30 minutes drive from Manhattan. He worked with us even when it was raining. Roy went above and beyond with how he handled the situation. And the outcome was spectacular!

g day shoot was very tight schedule. RAIN OR SHINE He’ll work his magic to deliver the most beautiful and romantic photos. I personally love the rain photo that looks like it's from a movie scene. His nature of calm and fun personality made us comfortable during the session. His service and photos are beyond expectation that being said It was the best money we spent on our wedding. I have received so many compliments from my friends & family. We will definitely schedule a session with him in the future again for another occasion!

in the planning stages. We were looking for a photographer with an eye for detail, a creative and unique flare, and ultimately, someone who could capture the essence of our special day. We got all of those things and more with Roy. We were blessed to work with Roy for our engagement, and wedding photos and we still get compliments on how amazing our photos turned out. We were also blessed with a lot of rain on our wedding day, which would have worried me IF we didn't have such a seasoned, and talented photographer on our team. The images that Roy took were breathtaking and truly froze perfect moments in time. I can't rave enough about Roy-- his portfolio speaks for itself. However, if you need more convincing, please know that not only will you receive amazing and one of a kind wedding photos, you will also have the pleasure of working with someone who is highly professional, gives great direction, and goes above and beyond to ensure that when you look back at your wedding, you remember the fondest and most wonderful memories. We hit the jackpot when we found Roy Nuesca, and I will forever be thankful!

family about his captures of our love story and we are so, so grateful to have these images for the rest of our lives. He is calm in the midst of chaos, flexible when changes are made, gives helpful direction and encouragement, and he always does whatever it takes to get the shot. From the time I met Roy in the wedding industry about four years ago, I've had the privilege of watching his work improve and become more intensely beautiful over time. As a photographer myself, it is a huge thing for me to be able to trust someone to capture my vision, and Roy did that. Thank you Roy, you are the greatest!

t, personable and willing to work with you, he had incredibly affordable packages, and his photos were totally stunning! I fell in love with his toned down, atmospheric style that has just the extra tad bit more of edginess and drama than your typical airy wedding photo, so was so happy to discover that his rates were some of the most affordable I’d seen from local photographers in the Honolulu area, plus included extras we definitely loved taking advantage of, such as an additional pre wedding shoot. Such a find! When the photos came back, it was honestly better than I’d hoped - the colors, flower and foliage colors, and little romantic details I’d meticulously selected for the day really popped, and he made the venue and setting look beautiful, dreamy, moody and romantic. Roy was my favorite vendor I worked with, by far, and I would absolutely recommend him in a heartbeat to any other friends getting married, and will be reaching out him for any other photo-worthy events or parties that pop up in my future!

-in-a-lifetime day...yes, he's that good! He's so easy to work with and makes you feel comfortable while doing it. His artistic style is also something to marvel at...he has an amazing eye for shots and can make anything look beautiful...even my ugly crying when my husband proposed looked amazing! He was there for our proposal, our engagement photos, AND the wedding. He captured everything more perfectly than I could have imagined. He's definitely worth every penny!

honestly and without making us feel silly for asking. On the day of the wedding we had so much fun during the bridal party and couples pictures and everything felt so natural! Our family is very large but Roy was patient and kindly guided everyone on where to stand. When we received the photos we were shocked at how much more beautiful they were than we could have ever imagined! Roy's natural talent, experience, and professionalism made the entire experience a wonderful one and now we are blessed with incredible masterpieces!
