can't say enough great things about Mike Federis photography…read more We booked him for our wedding, and then we actually asked him to shoot a surprise 80th birthday party at our house for my mother-in-law. What I love about his photos is they tell a story. He captured so much joy and love at our reception. Honestly, so many moments I didn't even know happened because as the bride I couldn't be everywhere at once! But when I look through the photos my face hurts from smiling. He capture not only us, our love for each other, our love for our dog, but all the love and joy in the room both at our wedding and at our surprise party! I love how he tells stories with his images. He truly is a master at what he does. Working with him was seamless and easy, and the amount of photos we received! Honestly, I am trying to think of what other events I could use him for, I loved his work that much!

From phone calls to detailed emails, we knew what to expect and that we would be very well taken care of and could trust our memories in their hands. On the day of our wedding, our ceremony was delayed by factors outside of our control and the first thing that the Lucero Team did, upon starting their time with us, was assure us that we would get EVERYTHING we had wanted taken care of regardless of the delay and they delivered tenfold. From beautifully capturing the peacefulness and intention of our Catholic Wedding Mass, to the crowd uproar during our first dance and the full on DANCE Party at the end of the night. The Lucero Team has given us the ability to relive our wedding and that is priceless, book them now!

Had a beautiful wedding, wouldn't change anything about the venue (shoutout to Pinerose!) but our…read morephotographer was horrible!! James Tang Photography to be specific. Didn't talk to us through the planning process, beyond maybe 5 times over a year and a half. Tried to strong arm us into getting a more expensive package where we hire on a 2nd shooter. He fails to mention he brings an 'assistant' who comes equipped with her own professional camera. He ignored the list of people I wanted photos with the day of the wedding. Ignored us when we asked to attend the last 15 min of our cocktail hour, instead going on to take photos an hour and a half. My husband and I aren't extroverted butterflies. We didn't speak up in fear of this guy getting upset and taking it out on our photos and just wanted to get through the day on a good note. After dinner he took maybe 5 photos of my husband and I. I'm not kidding. I have next to no photos of me and my husband after dinner. One with cake cutting, one with me and my dad and husband, one where husband and I are dancing, and one of the garter toss and bouquet toss. Correction: 6 photos. I wish I was kidding. After asking, he explained it's because I 'didn't specifically ask for photos during my reception of my husband and I' so now I have photos of my guests....which I don't hate...but considering how much we paid, I was hoping the photographer would photograph the people who hired him. We had a photobooth for guests. After that he was supposed to deliver sneak peek photos one week after we got married. Didn't get them until after 3 weeks. After we reached out with no response until we reached out to our wedding coordinator. Bless her heart. Then when 4 months passed and we were supposed to receive the rest. Those were also delivered late. Both times I had to reach out to ask. Got ignored. Had to contact the venue for help. Then conveniently got a reply. The most heartbreaking part. Photos are grainy. I asked if this can be fixed. After getting ignored some more, we were told it was apart of the artistic flare?? This is consistent with all our photos. A lot of the faces are somewhat blurry. I was quiet throughout this entire process with the hopes of beautiful photos being the outcome. I can deal with the ignoring and poor treatment, but the poor quality is something I can't let go. I'm heartbroken and I wish I went with someone else. Again. Beautiful photos. Poor quality. I just wish I can look at these photos and think 'yup, paying thousands of dollars for these and working all that overtime was all worth it'. Please do your research when picking your photographer. I tried everything to get this guy to help me. He couldn't care less.

James and his team are awesome to work with. They are true professionals, but also manage to bring…read moresome silliness and fun into the mix. I wish I wasn't so overwhelmed and could truly get to joke and hang with them - I recommend doing an engagement session to get more time with James because we did not. From what I have seen he does a great job with engagement photos. My groomsmen were a bit late getting ready (go figure right ;-)), but he made it work and worked around the delay. Just as an aside - I would have actually hired him for even more time before the wedding started so we would not have felt so rushed and I would have made sure everyone was ready on time - just a note for future brides ;-) We hired him for an hour and a half prior to the wedding. If he came earlier, It would have been a chance to get to know him a little more and relax and have fun with the photos. That was my only regret in coordinating. We did not do a first look and I actually do not regret that. For those brides that are old-fashioned like me, go for the walk down the aisle as the first look... it truly is special for everyone to watch you see each other for the first time. Anyways, back to James and team. The pictures turned out beautiful and natural which is just what I wanted. I am personally not into really heavy filters because I want my pictures to be timeless and they absolutely are. Looking through his albums online are great indicators of his actual work. He is artistic, but also brings in the element of raw emotion that weddings are really all about. I thought his ceremony pictures were particularly beautiful. I am not into having my picture taken much, but he did so much in such a short amount of time that we could really enjoy the wedding and our fabulous guests. Hire James if you know what is good for you ;-)
