We had the recent opportunity of hiring them to capture my sons graduation party at the Ballantyne County Club. Alan Lux Studios was in constant contact with us leading up to the date; connecting with my wife and I. Ensuring his staff knew what meant most to us and what to be sure to capture. The staff surveyed the location in advance picking and choose where the best light was and angles to capture majestically. Our pictures came out better then the high expectations we set. They were spot on capturing all those key moments. The staff highly professional, very well priced for the service we received. I highly recommended them if you are planning a wedding, Anniversary, or any other event you want covered professionally. We will definitely use them again.

Of all the professional photos that I have had taken in the past 10 years, never have I not been given the digitals (not expecting them to be free). None of my friends or family have ever not been given digitals either. Trust me, I asked all of them because I felt like I had been taken advantage of. It's 2022 people. Everyone likes to post high res photos to social media and make their own albums. No one wants to post a pixelated image with a giant logo on it. Posting high quality photos or making your own album will not be an option for you if have photos taken here... unless you pay thousands of dollars (not joking) and maybe they will throw in the digitals (what I was told). If you are looking to pay an arm and a leg for paper copies only, this is the place. Also you will have to go back to the studio twice (once to review and another to pick up the photos). The photos are beautiful, and clearly the photographer is talented. IMO a review of their business model and cost of doing business should be a priority for them if they are looking to retain customers.

They are very professional and make every effort to cover your entire day and capture every single detail. My husband is not a picture-person and really doesn't like to be photographed; however, MaryBeth was so quick to capture tons of great images without going through the re-take process, which was one of my fears. She instantly made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and our pictures truely reflect our "normal" personalities with smiles, laughter, "looks" and love, for which I am so grateful! My bridal portraits were shot at the Duke Mansion and MaryBeth did all of the leg work on the venue room reservation, locations for each shot session, etc. She even brought snacks and cold drinks for me and mother to enjoy during our session - how thoughtful? On our wedding day, MB and Colin arrived extra-early and covered every single idea (and much more) that I'd pinned on my pinterest board and shared with her during our pre-meets. She totally took the pinterest love that I shared, captured every shot that I imagined and brought every bride's dream to life.

Whether it was Mal helping my wife while she was getting ready, or Alex helping close the tent walls during the reception and so much more. And none of that was their responsibility, but it certainly made a huge difference! We had so many people tell us just how awesome they were! When it comes to photography, Alex and Mal are hands down the best of the best. During engagement photos, they made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and had the most creative ideas for what would make the best photos. The same goes for our wedding photos and video. All three of them were very punctual and organized on our wedding day. At times, I felt they were doing more to keep everything on schedule than our wedding planner. Just like the engagement photos, the wedding photos blew us away with how amazing they turned out. Alex and Mal will always be our go to photographers for any future family events or needs! If you are able to splurge a little, definitely have Alex partner with Jorge for the videography. You will not be disappointed, and every dollar will be worth it! The video was amazing and we watched it over and over again the first week of getting it. Thank you all so much for an amazing experience.

Her work has a style, beauty, and creativity that is hard to put words to. We didn't have a videographer, so our wedding photography was all that much more crucial. She took the time to speak with us several times leading up to the events so she really got to know us and what was important to us. She made sure our photos had elements special to us as a couple and were not just generic pictures. Traci is kind and great to work with, but she can command and wrangle a distracted group. She kept all our friends and family in line but smiling, so we got all the important posed and candid shots we could ever have hoped for. Everyone had so much fun with Traci's special version of a photo booth. The pictures came out so funny and cute. My uncle pass away recently, and the photo of him smiling big while I put a princess crown on his head in the photo booth at our wedding is an endlessly precious image. I am so grateful to have that little moment in time and so many others from that day captured forever. Working with Traci was easily the best investment we made. Our beautiful wedding photos are so important to us and our family.

He used his pre-wedding time to go back & forth between the Bride's and Groom's Rooms for photos. As the Mother of the Bride, Ken and I had a telephone conversation and he told me exactly what he needed ready to photograph as soon as he arrived on the wedding day. Having those items prepared helped him to stay on schedule and get all the pre-wedding pictures taken so that we started the wedding on time. Ken was very accommodating with special requests from both of the Mothers, because we wanted photos taken of our extended family groups. Ken had a prepared list of the extra photos that we wanted, and he methodically went down the list. The great thing was that we never felt rushed by Ken at any point during the entire day. Ken has a calm and friendly demeanor and it showed!! HIRE HIM... he'll do a great job for your wedding or special event too!

His attention to detail has been superb, and his talent is evident in our finished products. I'm thrilled with our photos, and I'm so thankful that I found such an accomplished professional for our special day. Way back in 2019, Ken met with me in person at his studio to discuss our expectations and to give me more information about his work. He impressed me as a delightful and extremely professional gentleman, and I liked him immediately. He also, during one of our visits, devised a detailed timeline for the events of our special day. That timeline proved invaluable in calming me on our wedding day and in keeping the festivities on schedule. All was nicely on track with all our wedding businesses, but due to the pandemic, we rescheduled our 2020 wedding. Ken was more than understanding and accommodating as I tried to come up with alternative dates. He was always a pleasure to speak with and even checked in with me from time to time to make sure we were still on schedule. On the day of the wedding, he arrived at our location in Marion County, South Carolina over an hour before the start time on our timeline, just to scope out the private home where our wedding was being held and to get an idea of photo locations. He was friendly and kind with everyone, both during photo sessions and at other times. He was fast and efficient in taking pictures, and his experience as a photographer showed as he quickly arranged us and our families in various great poses. My groom and I are both 60 years old, and he not only tried to make us feel more comfortable in posing - something that could have tried the patience of other folks - but also treated us just as he would a good-looking couple in their 20's. He made us feel special and was completely patient with his elderly bride and groom and our even-older guests. In addition to the posed photographs, he took great candid shots as well as many lovely photos of our outdoor ceremony. Since we didn't have a videographer, it was especially meaningful to me that I have photos of our vows and our walk down the aisle together. I received so many compliments from guests and family members, even before they saw the finished photos. Those in attendance noted that Ken was always available and busy taking photos throughout the evening and that he was unfailingly friendly. And then when they saw the nearly 500 photos - wow! I'm a technophobe, but Ken very patiently helped me with the online viewing of our pictures. He even emailed us a sneak-peek of around a hundred pictures less than a week after our wedding. The prints of all sizes are beautiful (despite the elderly subject matter!), and the lighting and color are perfect in each photo. When my two sons someday marry their girlfriends, I'd love to have Ken as the photographer. Even after all my wordy review, I can't think of a higher compliment than that!
