Testimonials

“Thank YOU for taking the time to take the beautiful pictures. You're very talented and I'm so grateful for you! In the times of where there is so much pain and sorrow, this Ofrenda has brought a whole community together and I'm in awe that we reconnect at this particular time. May our ancestors lead your way to great success. With much gratitude.”

“I met Daveed during an event and I loved his photography style. We became friends and did a photoshoot.

We went everywhere from the beach, to the streets and to birthday parties. Daveed has been present in every special moment of my life. On my wedding day, I couldn’t imagine having anyone only Daveed.

He is sweet, fun, loving and a gifted photographer. Daveed makes your special moment unique and memorable.”

“I hired Daveed Holmes to photograph the 2020 Arts in the Dark UPSIDE DOWN Halloween Parade because I absolutely loved the shots he took for one of the parade groups in a past parade. I was not disappointed, to say the very least! Daveed's shots captured the spirit of our event and of the particular nuances of each individual parade group. His enthusiastic yet gentle approach brings out the best in his subjects - and result in fantastic shots. He was a pleasure to work with - and I HIGHLY recommend him!”
