Both Pauleen and Myro are incredibly talented and professional photographers. Pauleen helped make us feel entirely at ease in front of the camera with her directions and constantly hyping us up. On our wedding day, she knew all the best photo spots at our venue and was able to get us a wide variety of photos for our couple's portraits. Myro did a fantastic job getting photos of all our guests during the cocktail hour. We had several guests compliment how friendly he was and how many people he captured. In the background leading up to our wedding day, the True Photography team helped put a photography timeline that aligned with our wedding coordinator's timeline. This helped ensure we got all the photos needed included first looks, couple's portraits, family portraits, etc. No special moment was missed by the team throughout the wedding. From first looks to dancing at the end of the night, we the full story of our wedding day captured!

True team helped us create a thorough timeline while offering suggestions/clarification so we knew what to expect and see the vision! Alex, Sheryl, and Dillan were assigned as our wedding day True team! Alex kept us on track with getting important photos and staying within the timeline. Alex was clear on posing directions and had such a calm demeanor/communication style that helped me feel reassured. Sheryl was our second photographer who captured the best candids and fun moments (e.g. one of the groomsmen had his shirt off and I didn't know until we saw the photos! HAHA). Dillan was here, there, and everywhere to get the best angles for our first dance, games, and guest reactions. Looking at our photos, I'm floored with how beautiful they turned out! The wedding day came and went like a flash, but now we have sooo many photos to remind us of the happy and heartwarming moments from that day. Excited to see how the videos turn out! Highly recommend considering True Photography & Video!

As a wedding coordinator, I'm always a little skeptical when working with new vendors because you never know what to expect in terms of professionalism, communication, and work ethic. Brandon exceeded every expectation. He was incredibly easy to work with, provided great direction during photos, and helped create a fun, relaxed atmosphere throughout the day. His sense of humor and lighthearted personality made the experience enjoyable for both the couple and the vendor team. From what I've seen on social media, his work is absolutely stunning, and I can't wait to see the full gallery from our event. I would confidently recommend Brandon to my clients and look forward to the opportunity to work with him again in the future.

I have been fortunate to know Ivan for well over a decade!! His work is phenomenal and never lets you down! He has photographed the most famous of celebrities and stays humble with pictures of us regular folks!! Some of my most favorite pictures I have in our family albums are candid shots he captured while we were laughing and having fun... while his creative genius had him moving around the event and like a ninja he captures the perfect picture! It's amazing and I can think of so many friends that have these same stories of him! He is someone I would 100% recommend for any type of event!!

I have used him and recommended him for marketing materials such as websites and brochures, event photography, and large scale marketing campaigns. Ivan is very professional and friendly. He maintains a very balanced energy and works with his subjects to ensure we have the best photos. He provides edited photos in a reasonable amount of time, and is deadline sensitive. I am NOT a model and hate the camera, however I have always been extremely happy with all of the projects that we have worked on. For example for my 40th birthday, I had a social media campaign as part of my rebranding strategy, that requires me to post 40 posts on the 40 days leading up to my birthday. I had no idea how I was going to pull it off, but 35 of the 40 days of content was shot by Ivan. I am someone with inconsistent activity on social media, so this was a real challenge for me. Ivan was able to step in to provide creative direction and content support, as well as capturing amazing images. As I head into my next major project, knowing I would need to build a creative team, Ivan was the first person I called. His willingness to brainstorm and provide his professional insight, along with some beautiful shots, has made this launch a huge success. I highly recommend Ivan if you are looking for experience, great customer service, flexibility, and a high quality experience.

The photos came in the exact time she quoted us but the edits look like pictures taken and edited off an iPhone. Not happy with them. I had to re-crop and edit majority of all photos as best I could as all the edits completely washed out our skin tone, the colors of the sky etc. I asked for the raws so I could just edit them myself from scratch and it's been 2 weeks and still haven't received them. Didn't remind us or inform to take phones/wallets out of pockets so those just look lovely in all our photos **sarcasm**. Book with someone else who knows what they're doing and takes their time on special memories like this. Updating my review! Got some of the raws back a day after making my review, which was nice of her to send as she said she didn't usually do so, but the quality of the photos look like they were taken on an iPhone..it was nice to see some of the photos that didn't come through as finals. Aside from how the photos came out, the one positive was that Anel was easy to communicate with and nice overall!!

We decided to do newborn photos with Lety specifically because we loved her portfolio and…read moreunfortunately, our photos came out nothing like the quality that's displayed on her Instagram. The prop selection and setup, backdrops, lighting, and the visibility of our baby all felt subpar in comparison to what she posts. There's not one photo where baby's entire face is showing - he's partially covered either by the props, his clothing, his own or our hands in each photo. There was very little guidance from Lety during the shoot to ensure that we were posing appropriately for the family photos, so the baby's positioning is awkward and there was very little to choose from. After telling her what I envision creatively prior to the shoot, I felt she did the bare minimum to meet 1-2 ideas out of several. She also made a disclaimer when booking that she chooses all the costumes and props in advance. We also were not made aware ahead of time that certain types of photos were not possible such as "digital" shots that are displayed on her instagram. This was a huge bummer. When I gave her feedback post-shoot, she blamed it on my baby, and also my dog even though she didn't communicate any issues with him during the photo shoot. I wanted to share my experience because my baby is 4 months old and I'm still devastated that we can never get those moments back to recapture our baby's newborn essence - it's such a short moment in time. I don't want another parent to feel what I've felt.

Wanted to get about 4 poses, 2 photos each for a total of 8, with a max spend of $150-200. The cheapest option was $139 for a single photo. Second cheapest was $250 for 15 photos. Absolutely, ridiculous price when I can pay for a private photographer to shoot in the field for $400 and send me 60 edited shots. Or go to Sphere self serve photo and get a 15 min shoot with 60 edited shots for only $89. Employees and management were rude and would not work with me at all on pricing. They also would not refund me the $40 I spent to reserve my 30 minute slot less than 24 hours ago. They had open availability all day today, I wonder why. Very disappointed, this is not a way to treat a potential customer! You could've had my business if you just tried a little harder, sad!

Only the *tiniest* bit bummed, we decided to still get married and scheduled our civil ceremony. But now, I want a photographer to document this event... I think I found Emily on Instagram, after looking around at different photographers' work. I remember really liking Emily's style, how natural everyone looked, and how well Emily captured the moments. I think those were/are the most important things for me for choosing a photog, and it helped that Emily has (solid) reviews for me to go through as well. Emily was prompt in responding via email, and offered to chat on the phone to discuss the details and what I wanted. After talking for a bit, I sent over a deposit and we were set! Or not... because a week or two before our shoot, I looked at my civil ceremony appointment time and it was actually for 8am, NOT 8:30am. Yikes! I text Emily, nervous that she wouldn't be able to make the earlier time, and I would need to scramble for another photographer, but thankfully, Emily is flexible and okay with the earlier time. Phew! I also wasn't quite sure *what* I wanted from the photos (POSES? props!? specific backgrounds?!) but found some pictures I liked and sent them to Emily a day or two before our appointment, so she had an idea what I was going for. I appreciate Emily's responsiveness! The actual civil ceremony felt a little hectic; we did not know what it would entail -- paperwork, of course, and then waiting because there were other couples that were getting married that day. Thankfully, Emily was very patient. Emily is personable, friendly, and professional. She is very easy to work with, and helped the husband (!!) and I feel comfortable. Nothing felt forced, and I think she did a great job of eliciting and capturing our authentic moments. We are super pleased with the pictures and I can't stop looking at them! Lol. I would *definitely* solicit Emily's services again. Maybe for one of her fun mini shoots down the line. What a cute, low pressure and creative way to get some quality photos! Reception/after party TBA in December 2021! Or 2022, depending on how things shake out ;)
