We could have taken better shots with our phones. Her photos were completely washed out, poor quality images, no sense of composition and she doesn't even know how to crop or edit well. She literally had to be told not to cut the top of someone's head off, after doing so, when there was plenty of extra room on the bottom of the photo, just showing pant legs. And she charges a ridiculous amount of money. Please save your time and money and spare yourself a big headache... Use a different photographer.

It seems like yesterday when Josh and I sitting with our wedding planner Jen House Design going over photographers! I still remember when I browsed over their sample pictures, I KNEW right away - THEY ARE THE ONE!! Tamara and Steve are not only AMAZING photographers, but such WONDERFUL people! They are genuine, easy, professional and funny! Taking pictures are not necessarily easy for everyone who are not as photogenic, but they made it so much more comfortable for both Josh and I during our engagement session! They captured the most natural looking yet loving photos of us! Tamara also helped us made our guest book and ensures it was ordered on time for our wedding! Their professionalism, organizing and flexibility was greatly appreciated! Besides, Josh and I came from two different backgrounds, Italy and China. We combined many culture differences into our wedding and made it very unique and could be difficult to capture all, but Tamara and Steve did not disappoint us at all! They are truly one of THE BEST DECISIONS we made for our weddings!!! I will always have Silver Thumb in mind for any events in the future!!! If you are looking for a great photographer who does not only have skills but also personality and care, STOP looking now!!!!! Silver Thumb is beyond qualified!!!!! We love Tamara and Steve!!!!! Thank you guys!!!!! Can't wait to see the rest of our wedding photos!!!!!!! Love you both!!!!

She made sure mine and the groom's needs were met with the photos wanted and much more. Her equipment is top of the line. She was great at getting people's attention and knew what would look great in locations and lighting. She was good at hiding in the crowd at the reception, no one really noticed her. My family and friends had nothing to say but wonderful things about Melanie. My husband and I are looking forward to seeing how the photos turned out, we know they will be great. Melanie is definitely worth the money and I recommend her for any photography needs!

She was also kind enough to work with our budget, and went above and beyond to make sure we got great photos in an efficient amount of time. To say she was a good value is an understatement. Melanie has such an eye for composing the shot, and great ideas for posing and content so that you can just let go and relax and let her do her magic. We felt so comfortable with her and her assistant Deana, which makes for even better photos and enjoying your wedding that much more. She's the kind of photographer who will fix details of your wedding that have nothing to do with the pictures, just because she's good people. Her whistle to get babies' attention is awe-inspiring, haha, seriously. She's just the best.

Geneva shot my wedding last year and I am so happy with the images. She really took the time to get…read moreto know us before the wedding and made sure to lay out what the entire day would look like from start to finish. We also did our engagement session with her in Downtown Detroit. She knew all of the places to go and guided us the entire way. On the wedding day she made sure to get all of the important images that we wanted. We received 1252 images from the day! I really liked how her second shooter and her split up during the getting ready so it would save time for us. She also had really creative ideas for our first look (right on the beach!) that made it special for us. She's also really nice and not super pushy, so we felt comfortable asking her for certain shots too. Photography was really important to us, and we're so happy that we went with Geneva!

I check it daily but I post minimally. However, I finally lived out the liker lifestyle when I saw my wedding photos taken by Blend. Seriously, I was 'Liking' all over the place! Blend Photography consists of a husband and wife team, whose artistic vision blends (see what I did there!?!) to deliver the perfect results for your event. Together, they were able to create the exact look and feel I was looking for and capture all those important moments of the big day. I found Blend Photography through a simple Yelp search...thanks again, Yelp! I was panicky and frazzled. I just did an engagement session with another photographer, I was less than thrilled. Very, very less than thrilled! So I started searching and calling. Jen from Blend quickly returned my call and called my nerves immediately. Yes, they had my date open and yes, she could meet with me to discuss my event and 'vision.' Already, I was confident in my choice...I loved what I saw online, I loved that she could make me feel comfortable immediately over the phone and I loved that she was willing to work with my hectic schedule. And after a meet and greet, I realized I was very, very confident with Blend. Our engagement session took place during an evening following a super hot day. Unfortunately, we kept having to reschedule because of the heat wave we were having during that time. I so glad we kept on rescheduling...no one wants to look at photos of a sweaty, kissy couple with frizzy hair. Luckily, the evening we took the photos was perfect, even though it was still warm. Jen and Rob had some great ideas in mind for shots and locations but also made sure to capture the spots that my guy and I wanted as well. And then our big day came. Leading up to the wedding day, Jen kept in touch via email to solidify the details of the actual day. She also made sure to find out which shots/poses/locations were most important to me. Both Jen and Rob wielded cameras that day, making sure to capture every moment from multiple angles. They definitely caught some great shots, but made sure to stay unobtrusive during the most important moments. And most importantly, they stayed very respectful of the flow and traditions of the wedding and the synagogue. A few weeks later, I was finally able to see the amazing shots on their website. They also promptly had a disc and a letter granting me rights to reproduce the photos waiting for me as soon as it was ready. Unfortunately, the wedding album did take some time to get to me -- however this was because of some issues with their lab. The wait was long, but in the end it was worth it -- the photobook was great. Just a tip though -- make sure your let them know of every shot you want/need. They are not mind readers and because of that mistake on my part, I feel like I lost out on a shot of an important custom from the ceremony. So yea, I'm definitely happy I chose Blend to be part of my big day. I guess its more than just 'like' -- its 'love' when it comes to the great photos to remind me of that amazing day.
