Let me start off by saying that had I read a bad review about this photographer i would have NEVER…read morehired him. The reviews were all wonderful saying how much he went out of his way for them, well apparently I was not so 'fortunate' to receive any of that. I found anthony via groupon for a special he was doing. I was planning on visiting Vegas in January to celebrate my birthday and thought why not take some great photos as we were staying at Lake Las Vegas known for its gorgeous scenery. I contacted him early on in August to ask about pricing and if he could shoot at my hotel. He responded right away and seemed very friendly on the phone and on email. Closer to the time I messaged him about a month before in December and he corresponded within a day confirming everything. A week before I reached out to him via email to confirm if there were any changes. He took almost 3 days to respond. This was my first red flag. I let it got as he was quite responsive before and I figured he was busy. The nightmare begins the week of my trip to vegas. I messaged Anthony 2 weeks before my shoot to notify him of a time change and a date change as I wanted to switch my itinerary that week. It took me a voice mail and two messages later to get him to respond by saying that all was well. He took 3 days to respond and this was via text. Again another red flag but like most photographers I figured he was tied up with other things. As a courtesy the day before my travel i made sure he knew the time change for the shoot. He never responded! When I arrived to las Vegas it was raining that night and the forecast predicted more rain that week. Great! My shoot was outdoors. As soon as I checked in to my hotel I updated him letting him know I was concerned about the weather and if there was anywhere else in the hotel we could shoot. I waited until 3 am vegas time and heard NOTHING! The day of the shoot I began to grow anxious and very worried. I texted him again that morning and got no response. My makeup artist arrived on time but would have needed more time to do my hair. I heard nothing from anthony and this was about an hour before our shoot. I texted him AGAIN saying hi are you getting this? I am going to be late. He messages me TEN minutes before our scheduled shoot saying he is on his way! While my hair was being done he messaged me saying he is outside the hotel just let him know when I am done. I get down to the lobby. No sign of him. I text again to say I am out front. he eventually shows up five minutes later and is ready to shoot. I had my own concept of what I wanted however he decided that he wanted to shoot outdoors as the rain had just subsided. We shot outside as I sat on cold wet concrete steps as he quickly snapped photos without even really taking the time to fix anything. In fact I was the one that suggested he stop as I needed to fix details with my outfit. He cared less, and just kept asking me to walk in heels on the wet bare concrete on the hotel (mind you I could have slipped as the floor was slippery) When I noticed he was so rushed, I let him know I had another wardrobe change and if that would be ok. I also asked if we could take some shots in the garden overlooking the hotel. I mean HELLOO!!!! why the heck would I shoot at lake las vegas and not have a good background!! After I quickly changed my outfit I realized it was HIS shoot and not mine as he directed me to do the same poses I did for each outfit again. I did not enjoy one bit of being TOLD what to do and this was not a modelling portfolio, this was MY own shoot with poses I wanted to do. I had to ask him if it was okay to take a few photos posing the way I wanted to. The last outfit change I asked if we could shoot inside the hotel by a gorgeous cascading chandelier. He refused to do so saying oh.. well if we can get the people out. He took the photo of me so quickly that the chandelier barely shows!!! everything was rushed, unprofessional and unacceptable It took him about 4 days to email me the proofs only after I ASKED for them. Then another week to send the retouched pictures that looked like a 10th grader did . My eyes were messed up in the photos, I looked cross eyed and he failed to edit that HAD HE TAKEN THE TIME TO LOOK AT THE PHOTOS AS HE TOOK THEM HE WOULD SPOT THESE THINGS. THAT IS WHAT PHOTOGRAPHERS DO TO MINIMIZE BAD PHOTOGRAPHY!!!!! Never will I do business with him ever for his utter lack of professionalism. I paid for a service I expected it to be outstanding. Next time I will pay full price elsewhere!!!!!!!

I'm in the middle of a freaking pandemic, and we did not book our "elopement" until we got our first shot - so, I had 3 weeks to plan. We booked an elopement package" with this vendor: 3 venues, limo pickup, and taking us to such venues. Glitter Lans was *perfect* - he met us at our hotel, he took us to our limo, he saw I was so nervous, and he also *got our guests to the venue as well*. He knew the venue; he got us through.... and we took a gajillion pictures, he even let me be artsy-weirdo ("I want to do an American Gothic?") and was a-ok with this! We did the ceremony (which was so sweet; I quote the minister, Charles Petersen of the Little White Chapel to my new husband every day ("And in bad times, you have me"), and then he took us to the Fremont Street shoot What I never expected was the magic of Vegas: he walked us down Fremont Street (Old Vegas) and EVERYONE was so thrilled to be part of our day, we kept being told how thrilled folks were to see us - they were part of our magic, and we were part of their Vegas magic... because that's Vegas. I know it's odd to write a review before pictures are in, but their packages - they make things so. easy! And we just adored our photographer - my (new husband) talks about our photographer daily, and reminds me "we had to tip him" because he was so awesome. This is a Quality. Vendor. Trust the reviews.. I promise I will post at least one picture here - but that he made my wedding day such a magical, romantic, day? I had to login and recommend!

I'll go ahead and explain further. My services: first look & getting ready pictures. The little chapel elopement package. My experience rated for everything to help any bride to be: Caitlin - AMAZING 5 star service! She would quickly respond and answer all questions. Our photographer was Mike. My rate: 1) Personality- 5 stars. He was outgoing and friendly. Easy to talk to and avoid awkwardness 2) Photography - 3.5 he's been doing this for years per what he told me but it just didn't show. I expected to be guided and told how to pose from an expert so that our family pictures would come out nicely and not look disorganized. I had to pretty much just guess with my family and take the picture. And family members even made comments when we arrived to the hotel about how they felt we came out because he didn't tell us how to pose. For our private pictures on the strip those went a lot better, he did a great job of trying to take candid like pictures. Which is why I'm rating 3 stars because those honestly came out nice. Almost forgot!!!! I thought he'd take a picture of us with our rings but we had only our phone photos for that. I follow many photographers and many had the same must have bride pictures and I didn't get that :( Finished product: 3 stars. The edited photos as advertised are actually just black & white of the same pictures which I'm not even a fan of. I would've preferred them to give me other pictures than give me the same in black&white. There are some pictures that were edited like my dark elbow, they did go ahead and match it to skin tone. And one where a family member had her eyes closed so they edited her pic with eyes open. I went with rating 4 stars because I reached out to Caitlin because I expected a bit more pictures and I missed one of the locations due to us running late and the chapel also being super busy. It pushed us behind schedule and we had to shoot at only 1 location. Anywho, I reached out to her and she offered me a way to compensate for that. So that helped with rating extra. Would I recommend them to a friend? Most definitely but I'd tell them only if they are eloping privately. No family because my family pictures were just scrambled. I decided to upload 3 of my fave pictures (mind you I received first look, getting ready pics) and 1 of the family picture to give you an idea of what I meant by disorganized, clumpy look to it. Yes, we were a big family but as past experiences I've seen friends pictures and there family is bigger and their photos look amazing. Hope my review makes sense and helps you decide to go with them.

I cannot recommend Brandon enough! We had our wedding at the cosmopolitan and he was able to…read morecapture everything and everyone so flawlessly. He was kind and professional, and directed us without it feeling like we were being too posey as we were looking for someone who could more candidly capture our day. The locations he took us to added a variety of unique backdrops to our photo portfolio and it's truly hard to pick a favorite. During the ceremony and reception, I barely noticed him, which, as I write, it sounds a little mean, but truly shows how professional he was in capturing moments without being in the middle of the moment and capturing candid emotions and reactions. I couldn't have asked for a better experience with him!

The wedding took place Sunday evening and we received the digitals a couple days later on Tuesday morning. Gin & Sake is definitely top notch quality!
