Genuine reviews & testimonials
In this day and age of fake-this and fake-that where buying popularity in the form of Likes and Followers is rampant whom can you trust?
Anyone can easily buy Likes / Followers for a nickel or dime...
Therefore, the most trustworthy Bali wedding photographer reviews come from an unexpected place. Namely Facebook. Yes, Facebook.
Because for any reviews made on Facebook it is easy to dig a bit deeper and see if the reviewer is a real person who indeed had their wedding in Bali. Spotting a fake profile is rather easy.
That is why Facebook reviews & recommendations are actually a pretty good resource and a good measure for the popularity of a Bali wedding photographer.
I have done the research for you/ And the photographer with the most reviews and raving testimonials in Bali clearly is Martin Dewata. You can simply verify this by heading over to Martin Dewata's Facebook page.

MARTIN DEWATA - undoubtedly Bali's most popular photographer
There are probably many factors why Martin is so popular. But what it boils down to is:
Great photos – friendly service – quick and convenient delivery.
And that at an affordable price.
But that is not all. Unlike other wedding photographers in Bali, Martin Dewata comes with a bag filled with professional gear. He does not use cheap equipment but instead relies on top-notch photographic equipment.
He always brings at least 3 cameras and an assortment of lenses. Of course, he is also always accompanied by a 2nd shooter so that no moment of your big day will be missed. Not just a second shooter but a photographer who Martin has trained over the years to work exactly in Martin Dewata’s signature style.
Here are a few photos that illustrate Martin's style impressively:

Knowing where the best spots are.
Quick beautifully looking photos
Martin is also known for quickly delivering your photographs after the wedding. Typical turn-around time for Martin’s photos is less than a week.
But that does not mean he rushes the vital aspect of editing and enhancing your wedding photos.
How can he be so quick, I hear you ask.
For post-production and editing work Martin relies on a team of skilled photo editors. They often work in night shifts to make sure that couples can receive their photos as quickly as possible. That way brides can soon share their wedding photos with friends and family on Social Media and on other platforms.
In the following please see a couple of examples which illustrate how perfectly your photographs will be edited.
Incorporating Bali’s fantastic landscapes
Because of his passion for the natural beauty of Bali Martin understand it very well how to incorporate Bali’s stunning landscapes into his photography. Couples always receive a well-balanced mix of photos that document the wedding day and all its moments and emotions on one side. And also photos that highlight the stunning landscapes and vistas for which Bali is known.
In the following please find a selection of photos that show this impressively:

A well-balanced mix between the couple and the environment

With hundreds of weddings photographed in Bali Martin knows those most beautiful spots.
Martin and the sunsets of Bali
To say that sunset photos are popular as backdrops for wedding photography would be an understatement. And as we all know Bali is a place with an extraordinarily high amount of spectacular sunsets.
So it is no surprise that Martin always incorporates romantic sunset photos as part of a couple’s wedding day documentation. He will also gladly advise you on the ideal schedule for your wedding day so that you do not miss the sunset period which in Bali can be very short.
Here a few sunset photos from Martin Dewata’s portfolio:

You and the magical light of Bali

It is all about the right moment

Sunsets in Bali come in many different variations.
Popular with clients from across the globe
Martin understands the tastes and preferences of couples from different cultural backgrounds. Therefore, he is equally in demand with Westerns and Asians.
Martin has photographed Chinese, Muslim, Indian, Western, Indonesian and many, many more wedding of all ethnicities and cultures. He has, therefore, a thorough understanding of various wedding customs and traditions from across the globe.
Attention to detail
Martin understands that wedding photos are not only about people and beautiful landscapes. But also about details, accessories, styling elements and all the small stuff that makes your wedding unique.
Photographers who only do the ‘standard’ wedding pictures will miss many vital elements and details that make a complete documentation of your wedding day.
Not so Martin! Any wedding documentation by Martin is never complete without his fantastic ring shots, photos of the dress, the décor and other important aspects of your wedding day in Bali.
In the following a few examples that highlight this:

Martin brings a macro lens to every photoshoot for this lovely ring shots.

Martin finds always a great background for these coveted detail shots

Those hand shots - just lovely
Humor & fun
Another characteristic is Martin’s unique ability to incorporate an element of humor in the photographs he creates for couples. And this humor element never feels fake or unnatural, but candid and spontaneous. This skill distinguishes Martin from other Bali wedding photographers.
A few examples to illustrate Martin's humor side:
