Smile Friendliest photographer in Aruba :)

My Fiance and I recently traveled to Aruba for a week. We will be getting married this September 2011. Before leaving for our trip, we decided it would be a great idea to get engagement pictures done down on this beautiful island. I decided to do a bunch of research and came across 1 person who stuck out at me. Her name is Diane Keijzer. Diane and I emailed each other back and fourth discussing options and prices. She was very quick with answering questions and seemed very professional. Her prices were not bad at all! After meeting with Diane at the Marriott Surf Club, I realized she was very friendly and easy to talk to. I knew the photo shoot would be a fun experience. Diane immediately knew what poses to do and where to do them. She took about 150 pictures of my fiance and I. She then got the pictures together and was able to give us a cd with all of them before we left. The cd is a great idea because we could pick which pictures we liked the best and could print them out at our leisure. Diane went from someone I had never met before, to being considered a friend!

If anyone has an interest in taking pictures down in Aruba, I would definitely recommend checking out Diane Keijzer.

Diane Keijzer

Yes indeed, Diane is a very friendly photographer and glad you were pleased with her work. I have known Diane for many, many years as well. Another friendly photographer is Robert Arenz. I have known him for a long time and he does excellent work as well. Both photographers are members of the Aruba Photographer Association and highly recommend them both.

Diane is wonderful, I love her and her passion in photography.
As a local photographer myself I am very surprised about the Aruba Photographer Association. I thought it was made by Robert himself and I never heard of any club, association or anything at all I should ask my other Aruba photographer friends. I am glad Glory and her family enjoyed Aruba and the lovely images Diane captured.

Friendly Photographer

There is an Aruba wedding photography association. Surprised none of the Aruba photographers every heard of it! Diane Keijzer and Robert Arenz are members. I am sure most professional photographer's in Aruba can join. All they have to do is ask!

Ditto on that. Diane is wonderful and not only is she a great photographer, she is also a reverend who can officiate wedding and renewal ceremonies.

They are the best!

We too have had Diane and Keez many times and they now have become like family to us! I originally contacted Diane many years ago to take family pictures. They turned out beautiful and she took more than what we ever expected. She is so accomodating and her husband, Keez is a great photographer too. They have now taken one of my son's engagement pictures and then flew to Iowa to take their wedding pics a year later. I can't begin to tell you how wonderful their pictures turned out! This year we will be celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary and my daughter is renewing her wedding vows for their 5th in Aruba (it will be our 10th trip to Aruba also). Diane and Keez will be there for both of our special days and not just as photographers but as very, very dear friends!!
