Meet Francisco Alvarez
Puerto Rico Wedding Photographer
Hi there — I’m truly glad you’re here.
My journey behind the camera began in 2016, creating recruitment films for aspiring college athletes. As a former athlete myself, I understood firsthand how elusive scholarship opportunities can be, and storytelling became my way of giving back — of helping others be seen, remembered, and chosen.
If you had told me back then that I would one day specialize in luxury wedding photography in Puerto Rico, I would have laughed. And yet, here we are. My first wedding awakened something I didn’t even know was dormant — a deep appreciation for intimacy, emotion, and the fleeting beauty of moments that can never be recreated. What began as a love for street photography and still imagery evolved into a calling: documenting one of the most meaningful days in a couple’s life with honesty, depth, and intention.
Today, my work is rooted in a documentary approach to wedding photography, blending refined visual storytelling with an effortless sense of joy. I photograph weddings in Puerto Rico and destination celebrations with a journalistic eye — preserving emotion as it naturally unfolds — while creating space for genuine connection, laughter, and unfiltered celebration. Your wedding day should feel lived-in, not staged; elevated, yet deeply personal.
Above all, my desire is that your photographs become more than images. I want them to serve as a time capsule — a reminder of the energy, affection, and emotion that surrounded you — something you return to not only to relive the day, but to draw inspiration from as you continue building a beautiful life together.
If you’re seeking a Puerto Rico wedding photographer who values sophistication, authenticity, and timeless storytelling, I would be honored to document your story.
Styling and profiling
Fun facts about me:
Before photography became my full-time pursuit, my path was anything but linear. I’ve worked as a restaurant manager, tennis instructor, federal government employee, and contributor for Elite Daily — experiences that shaped how I read people, anticipate moments, and tell stories with nuance.
At one point in my life, I was paralyzed from the neck down. A plant-based lifestyle quite literally gave me my life back and ignited a passion for advocacy, intentional living, and gratitude — values that quietly influence how I approach my work and my relationships.
My photography has been featured in Rolling Stone, MSN, and Business Insider, a reminder that authentic storytelling resonates far beyond a single moment or audience.
I’m a proud ambassador for AfterShoot and Zoom Print Lab, collaborating with brands that share my commitment to quality, efficiency, and timeless craftsmanship.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll most likely find me at home being happily outnumbered by my cats.
Let’s make some memories together…
Based in Puerto Rico, I lead a growing team of photographers and filmmakers specializing in luxury wedding photography and destination weddings. Due to the volume of celebrations we document each year, our studio now operates with a seven-person team — allowing us to thoughtfully and seamlessly photograph multiple weddings on the same day without compromising quality, attention, or experience.
We offer a fully comprehensive wedding experience, providing everything modern couples could desire under one roof: refined photography, cinematic videography, aerial drone coverage, and heirloom-quality wedding albums crafted to stand the test of time. Every service is handled with intention, discretion, and an unwavering commitment to excellence — ensuring consistency across every visual element of your wedding story.
No two couples are alike, and neither are our experiences. Every wedding we photograph is entirely bespoke, thoughtfully designed around your priorities, your aesthetic, and the way you want your day to feel. From intimate elopements to full-scale luxury weddings, our approach is collaborative, personal, and deeply customized — never templated, never rushed.
While our work is rooted in Puerto Rico, we are actively preparing and positioning ourselves to serve couples planning destination weddings in Italy and throughout Europe. I am currently immersing myself in the Italian language and culture, building relationships, and refining a workflow tailored specifically for European celebrations — ensuring that when the opportunity arises, our clients are met with confidence, clarity, and an experience that feels effortless from afar.
Whether you are planning an elegant celebration in Puerto Rico or envisioning a destination wedding abroad, my team and I are equipped to travel, adapt, and deliver a seamless, elevated experience — one rooted in preparation, intention, and timeless storytelling.
