When she and her team arrived on my wedding day, she was calm, cool, collected and so helpful! From making sure I was taken care of, to not missing a shot, she provided everything I had hoped for and more. I also had a few special requests and she was able to accommodate those as well, which can be unusual in today's market. Thank you to Lisa and her team, and I would highly recommend her for any photography needs you have in your life!

It was truly last minute and I was so fortunate she was able to accomodate our wedding -small ceremony and reception. Kayla and her Assistant were professional, timely, down to earth and most of all provided great content! I really like how she was able to deliver a short quickly, yet still provide other options for the longer version per her contract. Her packages are clear and you won't be disappointed- she'll take the time to listen and work out a plan! Kayla went above and beyond.

I can't rave enough about Angie! She was amazing with my husband and I, her team is just amazing…read moretoo. My pictures turned out perfect and that's amazing considering how much my husband hates getting his picture taken. The pictures were sent out within the time frame she told us and our wedding book is a dream come true. If you're looking for a photographer you can not go wrong with Angie.

Angie took the time to explain her process and helped us to understand that we could tailor it as we wanted. Any special pictures were not a problem.

We are so glad that we had the honor to work with her.

Ahhhmazing! We were…read morebeyond delighted/pleased/thrilled/impressed/etc. to have Michelle shoot our engagement photos and our wedding along with her husband as the second shooter! They captured so many candid and posed photos AND managed to do so quickly & efficiently (trying to manage our families for photos is like herding cats- they must have the human equivalent of catnip). I'm also shocked that she doesn't charge an arm and leg because the quality of her work speaks for itself. On a personal level she is very warm and puts you at ease- which is a great feeling when you're not so comfortable in front of the camera. We have received so many compliments on our engagement and wedding photos! 5 Stars all the Way!!!

I would recommend Michael to anyone and everyone. I am incredibly thankful to have chosen such a…read morehumble and experienced photographer for my graduation pictures. I worked with him and his assistant/girlfriend Haley (who is also a photographer), so I had two professionals for the price of one! I would hire Michael again for any of my photography needs in a heartbeat. I felt so comfortable with Michael and Haley and this was reflected in the pictures - I looked happy, warm, and like I was having a great time. They were respectful, kind, and attentive to what scenary/poses/props I wanted. Honestly, I'm a slightly high-maintenance person for events like these so I came prepared with a sign, cap/gown, dog, my dog's graduation cap, life-size 2017 balloons, champagne bottles, and additional items which I briefly mentioned in our email conversation. To others, I would imagine that this would be a bit overbearing but Michael was happy to work with me to make my vision come true! I strongly believe his professionalism and creativity are unmatched in the Athens area. In addition, Haley was kind enough to hold my props, fix my hair, and ensure that the lighting for each and every picture was perfect. Michael gave me suggestions on several different poses that provided me with a greater variety of pictures to choose from. So even if you're uncomfortable in front of the camera, Michael and Haley can transform you into a model! I also think Michael is great at capturing the flattering angles of your face (sometimes my face looks like a giant potato in pictures) haha. Again, I'm a broke college student but you only graduate once! Without a doubt, the experience and end result were absolutely worth the money!

Michael is one of the best decisions I made about my wedding day! He was truly so much more than a…read morephotographer. He helped plan out the timing of the day and gave amazing advice whenever I asked. He laced up my dress when no one else could figure out how to, and he calmed me down when I felt like the whole day was derailing. Michael is everything you could hope for and more in a photographer and in a human being. Aside from this, the quality of his work speaks for itself! I am SO picky about photos of myself--very hard to please. I was very nervous about hiring someone for my wedding. Michael was reassuring and he understood my needs. When the time came, HE ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT. His photos made me feel so beautiful, and I will love them forever. I have received so many compliments on my wedding photos, and I am so thankful to have found Michael Rizza! You will probably have some regrets about your big day, but if you book Michael, that will NOT be one of them.

Alyssa is great! My family has been using her since 2010 and as long as she's taking photographs…read morewe will keep using her. I love to recommend her to all my friends and have had a few use her and they love her too. You can always tell a great business by their return clients. While you can't see everyone's pictures, you can see they have galleries and a lot of them are return clients. She has great packages too. I've had 2 grandchildren and we've used the baby plan for both of them. We used her as our daughter's wedding photographer, and for senior photos. She's so versatile and is easy to work with. I'm so glad I found her and will continue to support her and her business! #alyssafilkinsphotography

A good friend referred me to Ambience Event Services when looking for a reliable (and fun) DJ for…read moreour wedding. Once we spent a few minutes on the phone with Mark, we knew we found a great match. This is a very professionally run company, one that you can count on! DJs are very important when planning the "big day", they help facilitate the evening - from the ceremony, to wedding party announcements, toasts, bouquet toss, last dance, exit, etc. etc. etc! Do not compromise when it comes to finding a DJ, you really want someone that you can trust to take care of the details, that is organized and friendly (yet assertive) to get things done....and that is definitely Mark and his wife Kristine and the Ambience team. During rehearsal (the night before the wedding) I was surprised to be approached by Mark and Kristine (it was the first time we had met them in person), although we spent quite a bit of time on the phone prior. They stopped by to check out the venue-to make sure everything ran smoothly the wedding day. They take everything the extra mile. Very reliable and dependable people! The wedding day....every single person... I mean every single one... was on the dance floor. We had an absolute blast, and I am so happy to have found Ambience Event Services!

We hired Ambience Event Services to DJ for our wedding. From the beginning it was clear that Mark…read morehandled his business in a professional and devoted manner. It was clear that he had lots of experience with weddings and not only from the DJ perspective. When we met with Mark about the details of the event he methodically worked through what we wanted, as well as potential planning conflicts we may have in our schedule (maybe we should take sunset photos and then cut cake, etc). Since he has worked many aspects of the wedding experience (planning, DJ, etc) he was able to point out potential weak spots in our timeline and offer advice on how best to achieve the experience we wanted. For the event, we had a very specific entrance for the wedding party, entrance for bride/groom, and finale for (secretly choreographed) first dance. Our timing was pretty precise, down to the second, for all of the aforementioned and Mark got it PERFECT. It was really important to my wife and I, and it was reassuring when he showed up having clearly practiced for what we wanted. The same goes for the ceremony, as my wife's processional song was a secret to everyone there, even me. Mark is also a master of handling a crowd. He politely and respectfully nudged people into the right place, whether it be inattentive groomsmen about to make the wedding party entrance or getting folks efficiently through the catering line. He can even handle slightly intoxicated family member/friends looking to make rogue song requests. He does everything in his power to ensure that your big day is exactly what YOU want. Our wedding ceremony and reception was perfect, and Mark played a very big role in its perfection.
