I am looking into my photography for my wedding in PPC this coming January and I am having a hard time. Has anyone used the resorts photographer for their wedding? They are called Arrecifes Studio. Picture quality?

I am trying to stay within budget but dont want to waste money on pictures that are just ok.
Any suggestions or examples would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ladies

Hi Semi, have you looked at the Punta Cana thread to see if there are any reviews on that photographer? I know we have many photographers on the forum, some might be within your budget, so at the very least you might want to check them out as well.

Good luck :-)

You should check around the site. I am not sure what your budget is but getting a photographer outside of the resort will probably be less expensive and better quality photos. We are using Nora Bohanon which advertises on this site. She does great work and although she is not in DR she is VERY affordable! Its all about what is most important to you as far as pics go.

Hey Semiya, my fiance and I are looking at getting married at the paradisus punta cana in October 2010. I would be interested to know what photographer you choose and if you were happy with them. It would give me a good idea of who we should use for our wedding. Thanks

This company (arrecife) wich i don't recommend, took over the service from this november, but you can still choose your photographer, hispaniola foto is still working on the resort at the same time, sort of legal demands betwen them.

good luck.

I had originally booked with Photosouvenir but ended up cancelling with them due to lack of communication. I booked HDC their work looks amazing and they are verynprompt at returnin e-mails. And they are very affordable!

I worked with Arrecife Studio at the Paradisus Punta Cana resort back in October, 2010.  They were fantastic!!!  I was so nervous about the quality of the photos.  I really wanted a photojournalistic style and I was so happy with their work!  The photographer was so professional, he was well-dressed, and seemed to genuinely enjoy shooting the wedding.  (You know those photographers who only do weddings because they have to make money?  Not him.)  The girl in the office was really sweet too.  We all met two days before the wedding right there in the hotel.  The pictures were ready the day after the wedding.  I was really impressed.  I worried for nothing!  =)
