Going through all the photos made me teary-eyed, laugh, and immediately wonder if it'd be weird to use our wedding photos as bedroom wallpaper (my s/o convinced me this was a no-go, haha!). Ryan is not only obviously an incredible photographer, but he's ridiculously fun to work with. Hours before our ceremony, we needed to change venues which I worried would ruin the day. Despite the haze of anxiety and panic, Ryan had us all laughing and feeling present and excited! He's fun and knows exactly what he's doing, which made everyone feel at ease. I'm notoriously awkward in photos, but with Ryan, I just felt comfortable and ridiculously stoked! Okay, one last thing about why you definitely need to book Ryan is he's extremely fast! We weren't expecting our photos until at least a month after the ceremony, but somehow two nights later I got a very happy surprise that they were done (like I said, he's a magician)! I feel so grateful that we had such an amazing photographer capture our special day and will forever use Ryan for any other special events!

OH MY GOD. STOP READING THESE REVIEWS. Your search is over and just book Ryan already!…read more I was initially drawn to his style because he can capture "in the moment" shots. The small looks and giggles between the staged shots. He was able to capture all of that. One of my favorite things about my photos was that he was able to capture my guests' genuine reactions during the wedding. He truly can rock the momemt. So talented! He knows how to pose people in small, medium, and large groups. He'll remind guests if they need to button any jackets to get that great shot. He knows how to incorporate the background so he isn't just taking pictures of people but really the entire environment. There is great balance in the photos. He was extremely flexible the day of. We had minor schedule changes and he just went with the flow. I am SOOOO grateful he was able to photograph our big day. THANK YOU RYAN!!

The second photographer, Jenn, she killlled it with all the groom's photos. So many awesome snaps were taken for me to look back on moments I missed throughout the day. Some amazing shots of my guests just enjoying themselves have been my favorite to look back at. Thank you so so much to Pauleen , Dustin, and Jenn!! Also, before Dustin entered my bridal suite, Pauleen asked if it was okay for him to enter, and I think even her going that extra step to ask if he could enter really was so sweet and I am so touched she was so thoughtful. During my big day when I just felt like Mickey Mouse smiling for the crowd, Pauleen and Dustin kept the energy upbeat and kept reminding me to breathe. Loved them so much!! Can't imagine my day without them. We also snuck into the Windmill Food Hall arcade to sneak some photos since we were so good on our timeline and they turned out to be some of my favorite photos!

Our lead photographer was Sheryl, who also did our engagement photos. We loved the photos. They came out great! I appreciated having lots of options to choose from, and as a couple who does not pose often for photos, it was nice having someone who could direct us on how to look good. We really appreciated having her and the rest of the team document our special day. They made it really easy and were very professional. We also paid extra to have a documentary style video of our wedding which came out great. It was a fantastic way for loved ones who could not make it to our wedding see highlights from our day, and we plan on watching it every year on our anniversary.

My dad has instilled how important capturing the major events of your life is ever since I was little so I knew photography/videography was one major thing that we needed to do right. Also because we wanted my dad to enjoy the wedding instead of flittering around with his own camera and forgetting to eat. We reached out to LMP in November 2021 and finalized the Platinum package contract which includes 8 hours of photography, videography with drone (my dad was chuffed), and a photo booth in February 2022 with Ashley. Ashley has been phenomenal guiding us through the process and being incredibly responsive in all our correspondence. We felt like we were in great hands when working with her! Closer to our wedding date, she sent us thorough questionnaires to ensure they had everything correct for the day of the wedding and we also had a short call with our lead photographer Beth as well. The day of the wedding, my friends and I had a small moment to relax and munch on snacks after our make up artists left but as soon as Beth and her team arrived, that's when we hit the ground running. There are a lot of moving parts but the team made every transition so smooth that none of us felt overwhelmed. Beth and her team were so warm and kind that all our nervousness just melted away and we were able to really enjoy the day. You want us to fake laugh? You got it. You want us to debate between fast food chains so we look like we're talking? You got that too. LMP/The Studio is hands down one of our best investments for our wedding and we highly recommend working with them! They are with you nearly entire day of the wedding from start to finish so you want to have a team you can vibe with and make you feel relaxed and happy while they guide you through the big day. They are such a open and bubbly group, it almost feels like you've known them for forever. Our sneak peeks just arrived Saturday night and the results are absolutely gorgeous! We cannot wait to see the rest of the products. We truly appreciate Beth, Sheryl, Ryan, and Paul for being there with us on this day and capturing this special moment in our lives. Y'all worked with a really awkward bunch of friends and our photos came out stunning! We and our friends seriously miss this team already and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We can't imagine getting married without you guys being there. PS: if you have puppies involved at your wedding like we did, Beth is a dog whisperer and can get your overly excited puppies to pose.

My husband and I are beyond grateful that we chose Stevie Dee Photography to capture our wedding…read moreday! From our very first phone call, we felt like we had known Stevie and her husband, Ryan, forever. They are professional, fun, incredibly responsive, and truly passionate about what they do. Stevie went above and beyond during the planning process making the experience feel personal and special. We loved having our engagement photo session with Stevie and Ryan as it gave us a chance to get comfortable in front of the camera, learn their style, and most importantly, have fun! The session felt more like a date night than a posed photoshoot, and we genuinely enjoyed hanging out with them. On our wedding day, Stevie and Ryan weren't just our photographers--they were our support system. Whether it was keeping us on schedule, making sure we got all the group shots we wanted, hyping us up when we needed energy, or being a calming presence in emotional moments, they were there for us every step of the way. We are absolutely blown away by our wedding gallery! Stevie and Ryan managed to capture every emotion of the day--from the quiet sentimental moments, to us dancing our hearts out on the dance floor, and everything in between. Looking through our photos, we're able to relive the magic of our wedding day over and over again. Stevie Dee Photography didn't just take pictures; they told our story beautifully and supported us throughout the wedding process. We are so grateful for them and HIGHLY recommend!

After a friend recommended her and I reached out via her website, she was quick to get back to me, and very kind, helpful, and communicative every step of the way. On the day we took our photos, she brought great energy and knew exactly how to direct us. Helping us relax in front of the camera and figure out what to do with our hands, where to look, etc. made such a big difference -- and the result was gorgeous, flattering photos that we will cherish for years to come!

There aren't enough words of praise in the English language for Shaun of Top Shelf Photo! We were…read morelucky enough to find him on Yelp for our engagement photos, and in mid-November of 2024 he braved the chill of Palomar Mountain to take spectacular photos of us. Nonstop compliments from friends and family, and received much quicker than anticipated. Once we got into wedding planning, Shaun was the obvious choice for our photography needs. Along with his second shooter Jess (Jessica Christie Photography), he again knocked it out of the park. Couldn't have asked for more perfect photos. On a more personal note, Shaun is the above-and-beyond type of person to take the absolute best shots possible. Like, fixing the boutonniere on my suit himself for the exact right angle, or gently shoo'ing away stinkbugs while helping my wife to re-tie her wedding shoes type of person. His passion and dedication for his craft are inspiring, and I guarantee if you don't love being in photos as a general rule (like myself) he will absolutely put you at ease and make it look like you've been modeling all your life. Thank you for everything Shaun, from the bottom of our hearts.

From our initial consultation calls to follow-up emails, timelines, and thoughtful attention to detail, she made us feel comfortable and special every step of the way. She truly went above and beyond by cheering us on, sending beautifully packaged welcome gifts, and later a lovely USB box with all of our wedding photos. My husband and I aren't natural "posers," and we really needed someone who could help us feel at ease while capturing beautiful moments. Brittany did exactly that. During every photo, she radiated excitement and positivity, making the experience feel effortless and fun. I honestly can't imagine having anyone else photograph such an important day. We're so grateful to have had her as part of our wedding.

Thank you to Astray Videography for capturing our wedding day on June 30th, 2024. We initially met…read moreBrittney over the phone and she was extremely kind and I could hear the passion in her voice throughout our conversation. She asked questions I didn't think of and truly made us feel involved from day one. Her and her husband, Andy, are very knowledgeable and highly experienced. Andy and his video team were extremely professional, creative, and kind to each of our bridal parties, family, friends, and guests on our big day. We never felt rushed. The energy they brought was exactly what we were looking for! Hearing from our guests "how amazing" they thought our video team was made us feel so good! We feel lucky to have had a very talented and down-to-earth team that we could laugh with and rely on at every moment throughout our day. We unfortunately could not afford to book their photography package in addition to video, so we did have a separate photographer. When booking with Astray, we spoke of this and Brittney did advise us, very respectfully, to consider booking their team as it would be smoother. SO, a tip for you, if you are considering booking both... DO IT; BOOK BOTH ASTRAY VIDEO AND ASTRAY PHOTO. I would also love to give Astray a shout-out as they were extremely professional and patient with our photographer who they did not have any previous experience working with. It made us, the Bride and Groom, feel at ease knowing we could count on Astray to help lead, navigate, and communicate important moments between the photo and video teams. They were always relaxed and very respectful. Even though we live in Arizona, we will absolutely use Astray again in the future! Traveling to have photos taken by them will be worth it. We highly recommend their team to anyone who asks and are proud of the wedding video they put together for us. It is a gift that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Something that we get to show our future children, grandchildren, and generations to come. It has also been so fun to see our wedding moments as "reels" on their social media. This is such a unique way for everyone to relive it! (especially those who weren't even at the wedding) THANK YOU for being a very important part of the most magical day of our lives and creating a unqiue wedding video for us. I wish we would have been able to book you for photos too! We are forever grateful and also look forward to seeing the raw footage as it becomes available. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! (We've attached screenshots from our wedding video to our review)

We booked Justin for our engagement photos as well and I would 1000% recommend doing this.

I was still resistant. (I can be incredibly cheap sometimes). HOWEVER, when we sat down with them we could IMMEDIATELY tell they were the BEST. They knew about our venue, the best lighting at the time of day on our particular date- and we were completely sold. Their expertise in comparison to the other photographers we were considering was blatantly obvious. Today, almost a month after our wedding, we are beyond satisfied with our photos. They really captured us, our family and guests. I also loved how they seamlessly weaved into the event. I hate it when photographers are loud, obnoxious and in everyone's business- Nope not Justin and Julie. They made our photos gorgeous and effortless. Plus, they both just great people- really easy to talk to. On top of all that, their turn around is crazy efficient. They sent us the photos a little over a week after our wedding- insane!
