“Hector helped me with … the proposal plan itself (including a plan B and C).”
Man, what can I say... Hector is a true professional. Staging a proposal can be a stressful thing, especially when you're in a country you have never been to before. Hector helped me with ideas, specific locations, as well as the proposal plan itself (including a plan B and C). … And most importantly, he sent me the photos and video very quickly and my fiancé and I were more than satisfied with every part of the experience. … He won't steer you wrong.

“He kept the proposal completely secret from my fiancée and even helped me arrange and buy the flowers.”
Amazing experience and 10/10 service! Our photographer went far beyond just taking photos. He patiently guided me through the proposal, helped us with poses, and even planned creative drone shots. What impressed me most was how much he helped behind the scenes. He kept the proposal completely secret from my fiancée and even helped me arrange and buy the flowers. … Thank you for making our proposal in Ronda so special and capturing a memory we’ll treasure forever.

“We parted ways having made a new friend, not just having met a photographer.”
Héctor is an incredibly talented photographer, and he took some of the most beautiful photos I have of my husband and me. But his warmth and generosity of spirit is really what made our hour with him exceptional. … We parted ways having made a new friend, not just having met a photographer.
The little hidden away corners of Granada he took us to so we could capture quiet, private moments were just perfect. … I can't believe we were lucky enough to book with him on short notice, and the value was incredible.

I felt really heard when I shared what I was looking for and how I wanted the photos to look. … Most of all, I appreciate that he took care to understand the purpose of the photos so that he could bring the right artistic direction to the shoot.

“I was able to get all of the photos he took which was well over 100.”
As a solo traveler, it’s always hard finding a random person that can take good pictures. I booked Hector for a session at Plaza de España in Sevilla. The session was fast paced in a good way - I was able to get a bunch of pictures in multiple parts of the plaza. I was also surprised that I was able to get all of the photos he took which was well over 100 (some photographers only give a handful). … I would definitely book again and highly recommend Hector.

“We got the pictures back the next day!”
We had Hector come photograph our company on a trip to Malaga from the UK and we could not be happier! Hector was super responsive before the booking and took time to discuss our needs for the day well in advance.
On the day he was punctual, easy to work with and such a good vibe! The pictures turned out incredible and on top of that he turned them around super quick. We got the pictures back the next day! Would highly recommend, thank you Hector 🩷

“The experience was so exceptional that one day shoot became 4 days!”
As a solo female traveler in Andalucía … Hiring a same-day photographer required complete trust and Hector P of Zeuss Photo earned that from the very first message. … We started shooting in Estepona and the experience was so exceptional that one day shoot became 4 days! … He directed every frame as if it was a Condé Nast Traveller/Vogue magazine editorial feature while keeping the entire experience very easy, fun, and safe throughout for me.

HERITAGE SITES
The Alhambra & the Mezquita
★★★★★
“It would have been very difficult to take similar photos on our own.”
I asked him to photograph us at the Alhambra. We messaged regularly beforehand and also had an online meeting, so we went into the day with peace of mind. All communication was in English. On the day, he kept the energy up and we were able to relax during the shoot.
The Alhambra is extremely crowded, so it would have been very difficult to take similar photos on our own. I think it is well worth hiring a professional. That said, even with a photographer, some other tourists may end up in the photos. I was also very grateful that he shared the photos right after the shoot. I recommend it to anyone who wants to keep a special memory.

“Hector selected some stunning spots at the Mosque-Cathedral that were simply divine.”
He listened to what I had in mind for our family session in Cordoba and managed the session perfectly, keeping my children (8 and 15 years old) fully engaged throughout … Hector selected some stunning spots at the Mosque-Cathedral that were simply divine. Following Hector's recommendation, we started the session very early, and it was the best decision.
