David was very receptive to taking shots that we wanted, and was full of suggestions for pictures he thought we should take. Although his prices are a bit higher than the others, he does offer a payment plan so that the entire balance is due over time. (My final balance is due about 2 1/2 months after the ceremony.)
The other thing worth mentioning is that David and his wife never asked any of my guests to move out of the pictures (even my very camera-happy friends)- instead, he found ways to incorporate some very candid moments into the pictures. I was so grateful for that.
Book him early. Some weeks (including weekdays) he can have 5 or 6 weddings. That being said, I never felt rushed. In fact, we took our time walking through the streets during the session. I would strongly recommend David’s work. David has studied the art, and I think his work is proof of that. Andrea & Ryan – El Convento, 2010
David Medina and his wife are an amazing team who completely exceeded my expectations. Not knowing what to expect for a destination wedding, a friend of mine recommended David who had also gotten married in P.R. From the very beginning, David was very helpful–even in helping us choose a location! (yes, he was the first vendor I booked) He gave me his opinions and offered advice.
When we came to visit a few months before the wedding, there was a tropical storm heading towards San Juan. We were so disappointed because we were there to do our “love story” photo shoot and meet other vendors. Fortunately, the weather wasn’t too bad, and David met with us various times during the weekend to make sure we got awesome engagement pictures. The Love Story photo shoot is something he includes with his packages and is really a fun experience. He does an amazing job capturing the couple’s love, excitement and happiness. We had a couple of pictures that made the whole destination wedding worth it—and they weren’t even wedding pictures!
For the wedding, David shows up ready to go above and beyond to get the best pictures possible. He and his wife work together to make you feel comfortable, and stay in the background while getting pictures of the couple, the guests, and all of the details. They don’t have a time limit, and in fact are so passionate about their work they will take pictures any moment they have time, whether it’s earlier in the day, or the day after the wedding, etc. Finally, David and Marelly are both wonderful people who we had so much fun getting to know. I was so happy to have them be a part of our special day and they are very nice and accommodating to whatever you want. I want to go back and take more pictures as soon as possible!!! - Holly & Adam – Caribe Hilton, 2009
