It was such a pleasure to work with Rueben and Amanda! We hired them for our wedding. They've been very professional. We met with them before the event, and discussed our preferences. We asked for advice where we can take pictures with the ocean, and they eventually took us to a beautiful place on our day! The guys were flexible with our schedule and ensured we didn't miss anything on our wedding, and, at the same time, had plenty of great pictures. Also, wanted to note that Rueben was very responsive over messaging and addressed all my questions and concerns. We now have amazing photos and all our great memories are safe! Thank you so much Rueben and Amanda!!!

Rueben is absolutely amazing. He is so kind and professional. The pictures came out beautifully and he got them to us so quickly! He makes things super simple (especially during family photos with lots of kids and babies!) and is very detail oriented. We will love looking at these pictures forever. Thank you Rueben!

Rueben and his team are phenomenal! His work caught our attention because of his attention to detail and how he incorporates nature in his pictures. He completed our engagement photoshoot and captured our wedding day. We really appreciated his flexibility in working with our schedule. We were planning our wedding out-of-state but he was very open to finding time for our engagement photoshoot when we were in CA for the holidays. During our engagement photoshoot, he was so energetic and approachable making our photoshoot very comfortable and enjoyable. By our wedding day, we knew what we needed to do and made our day much smoother. We are so happy we found Rueben!

Rueben exceeded our expectations and captured our day perfectly . We didn’t have to explain what we wanted our video to look like, he just got a feel for who we are as a couple and took it from there. The video is something we will treasure for the rest of our lives . If you are considering hiring a videographer look no further , do yourself a favor and book Rueben today. Thank you Rueben !!!!

We could not have asked for a better photographer to capture our engagement photos and wedding day! Rueben is so easy to work with, very professional and each day we worked with him was so light and fun and did not feel forced at all! He was always available to answer any questions I had. I suggest him to everyone I know and I cannot wait to book with him in the future!

We loved working with Rueben so much that I'm leaving him five star ratings wherever I find his business. The pictures turned out amazing, he had such a fast turn around time, and he was really fun to work with.

Rueben and Ashley are beyond amazing! My husband and I had so much fun with them for both our engagement AND wedding pictures. All of our pictures are STUNNING and we are so thrilled! All of our family and friends just love everything about our album. Loose Tie Photography is truly magic! We have found our photographer for all of our big life events! Max and I cannot thank you enough, Rueben. You are so extremely talented!!

He was very well prepared - from our first meeting to our site visit and wedding day. We had a site visit before our wedding date to talk about different photo opportunities and he worked with us to create out timeline. He was flexible and very easy to work with, which removed any unnecessary stress. He was very efficient, which meant we spent minimal time gather people for our photos and spent more time taking amazing photos. Working with Rueben was amazing and we were extremely pleased with his photos!

Rueben was the photographer for our wedding. He is friendly, upbeat, energetic, and professional. We planned a winter wedding in 3 months or less, and he was very flexible and supportive. He did a good job of organizing windows of opportunity to get the photos we wanted from each part of the event. He worked and socialized well with the site director and our guests, and helped our special day run more smoothly. He is a great photographer. All of our photos were great quality, with nice poses and candid moments. He also captures backlit photos, indoor photos, and photos when it is dark out very well - this was important because our reception was indoors just after sunset. He is a very skilled and experienced photographer who offers a very competitive price, and is dependable, fun, friendly and approachable. We are so happye we met him, and hope he is free to document your wedding too!

Such an awesome experience!! Can’t say enough great things about my wedding photography!! Thanks again Rueben!!

Rueben went above and beyond for us. The epitome of professionalism, Rueben and his team were practically invisible on our wedding day yet seemed to capture so many incredibly intimate moments. We could not have chosen a better vendor for our video/photo needs!

I own an event planning business (A STARR Events) in the Monterey Bay area and I have used Rueben's Photography services for my Clients, Friends & Family events. It is my experience in this industry when you find a vendor who shows up on time, works hard all day (and our days are long), always has a smile on his face, captures every shot, keeps my clients happy and returns my calls quickly- Need I say more? Rueben has spirit, dedication, personality, and a great team. You get what you pay for...and Rueben at Loose Tie Photography is the first one I call when I need a professional photographer. Visit his website and look at his portfolio- I promise you will call him to capture all your family memories for years to come!

Look no further, I couldnt be more thrilled with my decision to hire Rueben as our engagement and wedding photographer. He is totally exceptional and everyone agreed. I got endless comments on our photos. I wouldn't say I'm a bridezilla...but I definitely know what I want and expect a lot - I can be quite hard to please!!! However, Rueben exceeded all our expectations and produced the most beautiful photos. Weddings can feel too formal and stuffy, but Rueben felt like family by the end of the day - everyone relaxed in his presence and had fun when taking pictures. One of the best decisions I made was hiring Loose Tie Photography!

After discovering Loose Tie Photography on WeddingWire and seeing some of Rueben's posts on his Instagram account we were hoping him and his team would be available for our big day! We got engaged and found a venue all under a year's time and we knew we had to act quick. Thankfully, the team was available. Rueben had another wedding to shoot that day but he set us up with Ashley who was absolutely amazing. They came out for a site visit a month before the big day to check out lighting and photo settings. The day of the wedding they were punctual and worked their butts off trying to get all the good shots with the sunlight we had left! What was awesome was that they weren't in our faces and moved around the outdoor space and dance floor with grace and ease that almost made them feel like they were guests at our wedding. The final product was amazing! Super happy with our photos. The only somewhat negative (hence the 4 stars) was the Videography. Since my grandmother couldn't be there fo... Read morer the big day she wanted a raw footage video (no fancy edits or music) of the entire wedding and ceremony. For whatever reason, the videographer (I forget his name) only took video of the wedding ceremony and nothing of the reception (he left shortly after the ceremony). With all the activity of the wedding happening around us, we didn't notice he was gone until the first dances were taking place. Not sure what happened as he was contracted for the entire time alongside with the photo team. After the honeymoon, we contacted Rueben who apologized and worked with us financially to recover some of the costs for the video as it was not completed according to plan. All in all, working with Loose Tie was a great experience and I highly recommend them for Photography. Thank you!
