Working with Katherine was wonderful! We had really admired her work through Instagram and she was…read moreextremely friendly and proactive from the beginning. We wanted a photographer who was very familiar with civil ceremonies at City Hall and was able to capture the day in a classic and genuine way to capture the joy of the big day. Katherine sent frequent emails with updates and tips on how to prep for the day and we had a preliminary call where we were able to make a schedule and plan out the day since we also had a wedding photoshoot afterwards in Golden Gate Park afterwards. During the day of, Katherine was on-time, flexible with when the other people in our group arrived, and guided us through the whole morning with when to check in, where to take photos, etc. She gave us some prompts of how to pose but overall she let us be natural and encouraged to be comfortable in front of the camera. The ceremony was captured beautifully by her and she took great group photos. We then went to Golden Gate Park, and she helped us take some cute coffeeshop and park photos, even with some bonus tennis court and piano pics (two of our favorite hobbies!). After the day, we received a sneak peek very promptly with an awesome of photos (~100 of them!) and a huge full gallery in about a month with lots of gorgeous film photos. There was a huge heat wave that weekend in San Francisco, and Katherine made the whole experience so pleasant and working with her felt like working with an old friend. She is so personable and I have been highly recommending her to my friends and family already! I would definitely recommend working with Katherine :)

She was super patient with us and gave us great direction since we were both a little awkward in front of the camera. She always came prepared and made sure at City Hall she was able to get great shots from all the key places we had discussed. Bonus points, our parents loved the experience and the pictures!

I discovered Kris when I was searching for a wedding makeup artist. I found their website and…read morecontacted Kris for a makeup trial. During my first-time hair and makeup trials, we had a nice chat and I noticed she is a Wedding Planner as well, so I immediately decided to choose her as my Planner, because I can feel she is very professional. I think I made a right decision; she is smart, efficient, and extremely decisive and she knows exactly what I want. We communicated a lot through text message because I live at Albany, 3 hour's drive away from New York; she works very hard and always replies my message in one second, no matter how late it is. Moreover, she's very open and loves make planning; she knows the steps to make my ideas/dream into reality, so it's been fun planning my wedding with her! Overall, my wedding was fantastic, and all my guests said my wedding was like a magical dream world . It was the greatest memory in my life and I have many thinks to Kris .

I've know VB for four years. They first did my Christmas couple photos in Manhattan and it was…read moregreat. The video was fantastic and the photographer Kevin took so many great shots that it was so difficult to choose from. I got married last year and I chose them again to take my pre wedding photos. The makeup artist Kris was excellent. My makeup was so beautiful that I didn't want to take it off after shooting lol. There were 300 pictures and I loved all of them. Kevin made the entire shooting progress so easy that we finished faster than planned. We had more photos taken than what we actually need. Although the editing took a while (totally understandable ) the photos came out great and we were super satisfied with them. Thank you VB for being professional at what you do. You are on my list for my maternity photo shoot.

Thank you ElopedNYC for the beautiful photos and for being so delightful to work with!! We love…read morelove love all of the photos so much! Our photographer was so sweet to work with. We just let her lead us around the city and we never felt rushed or pressured into doing anything cheesy. She knew all the ins and outs of City Hall wait times so we were able to go at a good time when it wasn't so busy. So definitely ask them about that so don't have to wait in line forever!! Such a fun day. We will never forget it thanks to these beautiful photos. Thank you and well done!

Before I was even engaged I knew I wanted TJ to photograph my wedding. 3 days after we got engaged…read moreI emailed him and a month later I booked him - 14 months from the wedding day! TJ was my principal photographer & Jay was my 2nd shooter. Both of them were amazing beyond words and never rushed us through the morning. They were not LOUD or INTRUSIVE like I have seen so many wedding photographers to be. They caught moments that I didn't even know happened and when I found someone on the dance floor that I wanted a photo with, TJ or Jay were right there ready with their camera! TJ photographed our engagement photos, our wedding and I can't wait to see him when we start our family! As you are investigating vendors for your wedding day, my advice is to keep in mind that you GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. Your wedding day is one day, one very expensive day, but your photos are what will help you remember the day when you can't remember all the details anymore! DO NOT CUT CORNERS ON YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER. You are getting professional, friendly, on-time, responsive individuals who do this day in and day out. Trust in the professionals to make your day as perfect as you could ever imagine it. QUALITY OVER QUANTITY any day!!! Angel Project Photography is worth EVERY PENNY. I could not imagine the day without them.

We used angel project for both our engagement photos and recent wedding photos and I would…read morerecommend them to ANYONE. We had a muggy overcast day for our engagement photo shoot but you would never have known looking at the pictures. Tj worked with the natural lighting and sunset to capture beautiful pictures. What I loved most was that TJ captured those "in between" moments that really showed our personalities, which made me 100% confident that he would capture my wedding beautifully. Working with Stella and Tj was a truely enjoyable experience and I can't wait to see my wedding photos.

After many phone calls and conversations with different photographers (with absolutely zero clue of…read morewhat we were looking for), we ultimately landed on Stephanie, and so glad we did! I relied on instagram mostly to look at photographers' style, but still had a hard time deciding. After speaking to her on the phone, my husband and I both felt her personality matched ours the best. We chose a package that included a couples session, which I highly recommend, especially if you've never taken professional photos before. You'll get to know how she takes pictures and helps you pose naturally. Leading up to the wedding, she also helped us with our timeline - something that really stressed me out because we couldn't communicate well with our coordinator. Overall, the wedding day went smoothly despite the rain! and her positive energy was so important to us

They snap posed and candid shots exquisitely, capturing the feel of our entire wedding party. Joe's intuition for weddings is unmatched. My husband and I left the wedding for a couple a minutes to step away from all the hustle and bustle, and he was able to sniff us out! It was honestly a blessing because he capture some amazing couple shots of us in the nighttime with a beautiful background. Joe and Vickie were extremely prompt and sent us some "sneak peek" photos within 24 hours! They were amazing and cannot wait for the photos and video!

We came across Joie Elie Photography and Cinematography during our vendor search and instantly fell in love with their work. From the very beginning, Vickie and Joe were extremely professional and personable to work with. Joe traveled to Philadelphia for our engagement photoshoot. My husband and I wanted some fun couple photos in the city we love (where we met). Joe made us feel very comfortable and captured beautiful, candid moments. He's truly an artist! After seeing the results of that day, my husband and I were so excited to work with Joe and his wife Vickie on our wedding day. We got married on June 23, 2019 in New Jersey. With this being the first wedding in both of our families, we greatly appreciated Vickie's suggestions throughout the planning process and incorporated them into creating the perfect wedding day schedule! We had a multicultural wedding, and Vickie and Joe did an AMAZING job capturing all the meaningful details. A few of our favorite moments included: reading love letters we wrote to each other, our first look before the ceremony, and sneaking away before cake cutting for a nighttime photo session. As we look back at our photos and highlight video, we are simply in awe of their work! Vickie and Joe are so thoughtful in their approach and perfectly captured all the emotions and subtle expressions of the day! We cannot thank them enough for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime!!

Which obviously, we weren't upset that she couldn't do the event. However, she did tell us that she would have a back up if in the event something happened to her. I asked her father and he said that she couldn't think of anyone. We were refunded our deposit which was great and at that point it was, what it was. I mean you can't be upset at a person for being unwell. Unexpectedly, we received an Email from Erica a few days later asking if we wanted to do a photoshoot that week for 30 min. I have photos attached to this review for reference. After her email, I realized it was all a lie.. she obviously sent that out with out seeing our thread of conversation and accidentally.
