Diogo was outstanding from start to finish, my project required careful planning, strategy, flexibility, and communication. Diogo excelled in all requirements and then some that I did not even consider. The photos and video required discreet shooting from a distance as well as closeups and aerial video which I am excited to see. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a professional as he defines the word perfectly.
