KIND WORDS
Laurance & Phillippe
My husband and I first met Rob & Lori for a photoshoot while in vacations in Costa Rica. It was our first time doing a photoshoot and my husband was a little reluctant. Rob & Lori were very nice and made us feel extremely comfortable. We loved our experience and our pictures! When we decided to get married, a year later, we couldn't think of better photographers to capture our big day. Living in California, we asked Rob & Lori if they would be available for traveling and photograph our wedding. They accepted without hesitation and with loads of excitement. As with our experience for the wedding, they were extremely reliable, easily reachable and professional. We discussed together our expectations a month prior to the event and met the day before to go through the schedule and the details. That was greatly appreciated and gave us even more confidence in our choice. And... we were not disappointed! Rob & Lori delivered fantastic pictures of our wedding! This came via mail in a very nice wood box containing few top pictures printed along with a flash drive with all the pictures they took during the wedding. We couldn't be happier! Rob & Lori have the ability to capture moments filled with natural emotions that really depicts you. Everything you want for your wedding! They are a fantastic team that we would recommend with no hesitation!

TestimoniALS
" I am so moved by our wedding photos. They are more beautiful than I could have imagined. Your ability to capture the intimate details and tender moments brought tears to my eyes. Your photos are more than just photos, they are as you described, our wedding story. I am so happy to be able to revisit this story over and over again. All of the photos, especially those of our family, are ones that I will always cherish and am so grateful to have these moments captured so beautifully. And all of our portraits- I have never seen myself happier or more beautiful or seen Marco’s smile portrayed so authentically in a photo. You both have a rare & true talent and to share that with people is such a gift. We are so lucky to have had you as our photographers. I can’t wait to share these! "
" We have just been completely overwhelmed & ecstatic about the pictures and our whole experience with Raw Shoots. Their craftsmanship is nothing short of magic. The photos are the true embodiment of romance, whimsicalness, and all the things we hoped and dreamed for our wedding day. They perfectly capture the essence of our love story and every time we look at them, we're instantly transported back to those precious moments "
" Wow! There are no words to explain how amazing, accommodating, punctual, talented and caring both Rob and Lori are. They make you feel so comfortable and pose you beautifully and capture the most special moments. I was very lucky and was able to hire them for 4 days and I loved every minute of it. They were always so nice, understanding and again just knew how to capture all the special moments during my wedding weekend. Now that I have all my pictures from the 4 days, I look at them over and over because I get to relive those amazing memories!! Highly recommend 10/10 and even my friends and family told me that if they come to the states, they want to hire them for professional pictures! Loved the airy and bright editing they did on the pics and their style! Again, they were the best of the best! "
