Phil Porto - Tampa, Florida

Kortnee Hatton

Phil and his team member, Paul, photographed and videoed our wedding on 10/13/23 and absolutely killed it. He also did our engagement shoot so it was no surprise. He has such a creative eye and is so talented. We didn’t have many requests as far as which pictures we wanted, but the ones we did request, he nailed. Everything else was his own direction and I couldn’t have asked for more. He is not the cookie cutter wedding photographer (which is exactly what we wanted). A mix of birth candid and authentic moments, with some posed and more artistic moments. He also has such a fun and comforting personality which was super appreciated with all the wedding jitters and nerves that we had going into the day. He made us feel comfortable and SUPER SEXY. We love Phil. You’ll love Phil. Don’t second guess your choice booking him!

The Porto’s are simply Amazing! Where do I even start?! What I want to say about The Porto’s is that, yes every single review hits the nail on the head about how great they are but, they are by far the friendliest people you will meet!

When we wanted to book The Porto’s, we met for dinner in Seminole Heights and became friends over dinner. We didn’t think twice about having them be our wedding photographers! However we met a few more times, they helped us get a few engagement photos downtown, without any fuss or hassle. We got to have dinner with our friends again!

Our wedding day came and I needed someone to tell me what the heck to do, where to go and when I needed to be there. Thank God Phil was there to push me around (very nicely and professionally, but we’ve got a good enough relationship he knew I needed to be nudged in the right direction)!

Phil took amazing photos of us, our friends, our family and anything and everything he thought would make our memories of this day that much more special.

Please do not hesitate to call The Porto’s, you will absolutely 100% NOT be upset that you made that call!

Phil and Krista were lucky enough to have a beautiful baby boy during our wedding ventures and still were top notch!

With all that being said, Phil and Krista THANK YOU!! From the bottom of our hearts, you made our day about US and helped us every step of the way. Your team is awesome and I hope to see you both again very soon!

First off, The Portos are incredible! Phil and Christa care so much about getting to know you and making everything run like butta'! Phil even called me to make sure I was okay and everything was going smoothly when there was a little hiccup in our planning. They are thoughtful and down-to-earth and it shows in their work. John photographed our Florida wedding and every single photo is amazing! I would absolutely recommend them - they will give you photos you will cherish for a lifetime.

We are so thankful that we found The Portos and were able to have them as our photographers for our wedding reception. Phil is one of the sweetest humans we have met, and we are so thankful that he was our photographer on our special day! He helped us feel calm and collected and even a bit badass. We enjoyed every moment, he helped to guide us through the process months in advance, and after seeing the photos we couldn’t have envisioned anything better! He is an artist and we will be showing off all of our photos for years to come! Thank you again Phil for all of your support, passion and kindness! He really helped us to make our day feel perfect.

Phil from The Portos was amazing! My husband and I could not be happier with him. He showed up early and really helped guide us to get the best shots we were capable of. Our photos are fresh and fun, unique and gorgeous. Stop searching, this is the photographer you want!

When I first began to research photographers to capture our wedding, I was completely overwhelmed with all of the recommendations. I was looking for something specific and more of a vintage feel to remember our day by. I compiled a list of all of the photographers that visually matched my style and began the process to finding our perfect fit. After seeing The Portos work, I completely fell in love and reached out to Phil for more information. After setting up a meeting and speaking with him, we knew him and his team were perfect for us! Jennifer (Jen) from The Portos team captured our day and she couldn't have been more down to earth and fit in with our group better. She truly captured our personalities and pure joy and laughter from our day. I asked her for specific shots throughout the night and she never hesitated to get it done. My guests still rave about how great she was! Choosing The Portos was the best decision we made and we're so thankful to of had them there on our special day!

The Portos have been incredible from the start. My husband and I both wanted a team who would match our energy and take beautiful photos we could be proud of. We felt so comfortable around Brandon, our photographer. He made us feel like we had been friends for years. Our photos show that, and they also show my husband and I and our entire party in the most genuine way. It rained during our ceremony (like, literally RIGHT in the middle) and into our portrait time. Phil and Brandon graciously offered us another hour for FREE on another day to make up for what we weren’t able to get on the actual day. If you’re looking for a team that is honest, cares about YOU, and wants to give you the best photos and experience, all stress-free, you are looking for The Portos!
