I just got my engagement pictures taken with Olive Studio by the photographer April Maciborka and…read morethe pictures turned out amazing! We took the photos in high park near Colborne House in mid-afternoon and we couldn't have gotten better results! This engagement session is part of the photography package that we have selected for our wedding. April is not only very talented and has an eye for photography but she also is very professional, personable and easy to work with. We felt very comfortable throughout the entire photo session never feeling rushed or uncomfortable. As a result, the pictures turned out very natural, documentary style, not cheesy or too posed. Although it only took an hour and a half, we had 5 different backgrounds and April worked with us until she felt that she got enough good shots as opposed to going by the clock. We did however have to schedule the session during a weekday but we lucked out in the weather and the location worked out really well for us. My fiance and I look forward to working with April again for our wedding in June. Stay tuned on an update. Her wedding packages begin at $2,800 for 8 hours plus tax. April was very accomodating in creating a custom package that suited our needs. If you are interested in knowing more, you can check out her blog for her latest work. She is also available for photo sessions for newborns, family portraits, events, and other occasions.

Location This place is located right in the World on Yonge…read moreplaza. Readily accessible with free underground parking once you arrive. It's located on the first floor, by the corner spot. It's not a super big studio - but enough space for 2 separate rooms and they have a few standard props and background available if you need to change up the layout. Service/Setup This is a professional self portrait studio where they have all the camera gear, including lightning to ensure it's perfect. Then you have around 30 minutes (usually a few more minutes!) to take as many photo as you want. Literally there's no limit, do 600 shots if you want to. Use their standard props to help with different styles, and you can of course bring your own costumes or props too. No judgement cause your own time. What I also like is that all the digital copies are sent back to you, so you can pick and choose whenever you like. Depending on the package, you can also get 6 of the photos printed and they will also do a quick touch-up to perfection! Great for families, individuals, dog-friendly as well. Staff is very nice and great service overall!

It was a pleasure working with Lucy on our baby girl's newborn photoshoot. We brought our 9 days…read moreold baby girl into her studio and participated in a few shots with her as well. Lucy turns on the heat to keep the studio warm for baby so it may get a bit warm for parents who stay for the whole session. We really enjoyed the whole photography session of her photographing our daughter. While her sessions are affordable at $250 but her photos can go on the pricy range depending on what you choose. We ended up choosing the $1100 that was the best package for its value of what is included especially if you want full high resolution images instead choosing the a la carte that may be slightly cheaper but you don't get as much. What I wished that I had done differently in retrospect knowing that we purchased the full package was to have more shot in different wraps, props and outfits.

She took in my student with open arms and was an excellent mentor by showing my students the ropes of the photography industry in Toronto. Being a photographer includes the editing of photos, marketing, keeping up with the latest trends and much more ! Lucy has a beautiful studio on Wallace Avenue - with large windows and sun shining in, it's a great location to have your photos taken. I was able to get some head shots taken by both my student and Lucy - she is a very talented photographer (just look at her on-line portfolio and she works with babies !!) who knows how to make subjects feel comfortable to really enjoy their photo shoot session. Lucy Literna Photography is a solid five-stars. Good for: head shots, baby photos, family portraits

After quite a lot of searching, my DH and I decided to go with BLS as our engagement/wedding…read morephotographer. We felt that their website showcased the types of photographs we were looking for and I had an immediate rapport with Juliette, our photographer. Our package price was $2800, taxes in, the 2015 price because of when we booked. A similar package is going for $3300+taxes now. We had our engagement photos in the summer and we were happy with how they came out. I felt like Juliette could have done a better job at fixing a few minor things I wasn't aware of, like bra straps showing, or posing me in such a way that was flattering. There are a handful of images that are amazing, but there are some that are just so completely unflattering of me, I can't believe she put them in the final set. On the wedding day, the photographers arrived early to shoot the groom and groomsmen in my MIL's room suite. My groom wasn't even remotely ready when they started taking photos and I just felt like they could have gotten some shots of the guys getting ready together, instead of just him by himself. The shots of the groomsmen are great, but they're all incredibly similar. I would have liked to see more variation in the locations, types of shots, etc. When I arrived at the hotel, the photographers had already gotten into my room (how, I don't know) and had taken photos of my wedding dress and shoes without the special hanger I had purchased, which was slightly annoying. The photos of my dress were, frankly, a let down. My dress sparkled like crazy and all the photos are in front of a lit window that shows NONE of my favourite features of the dress. There were a TON of pictures of my shoes and my grooms shoes (???). There were three photographers in the room and they RUSHED us. First off, I'm the bride, everyone can wait! Second of all, I didn't need added stress on MY WEDDING DAY. We had plenty of time to get everything done and they really stressed me out. They did get some good photos but absolutely NONE of me and my mom and she came down specifically to get me in my dress. They also felt kind of intrusive. I had hoped for a few quiet moments with my girls to get ready and yet the room was absolute chaos until we left to get photos done. Not what I had envisioned. Our first look was perfect, but the photographer didn't bother to scout any locations - we did it in a hallway in the hotel. The photos turned out great but primarily because you're focused on our faces. I would have liked to get photos with each bridesmaid individually, but those were never taken. I figured she'd have the vision to do that and she didn't. The best part about the photographers was that I didn't even KNOW they were there during the ceremony and reception. We did get some really good shots of the ceremony but after that, things went downhill. I had asked for formal family photos and I'd say about 80-90% of these photos are unusable because either someone's face is obscured or someone's eyes are closed. I was super disappointed because my dad's family came a long way and we were looking forward to the first family photo in probably 30 years, and they're unusable. The photographers rushed through these unnecessarily - the cocktail hour was going on downstairs, we had plenty of time to get these photos done right. The few things I did specifically ask for, like photos of the decor, were included and looked quite nice. They didn't get a single photo of the head table, which I had done up on purpose, and I was disappointed. The photos of our guests are poor - they used an exposure/setting that put one person in focus and the person beside them out of focus. So I have pictures of my sisters-in-law side-by-side, one where one is in focus and the other is not. They got almost no photos of my choreographed dance with my dad, even though I specifically mentioned it, and all the photos are meh. I felt like they could have done a better job with three photographers to catch more moments of that dance, since it was such a special moment for us. I wanted more formal photos of me and my husband alone - the day was about us and I felt like there were only the photos from earlier in the afternoon, NONE after we were actually married besides our entrance/us at the head table. The best photos of our guests are from the guests themselves, BLS didn't do a great job on guest shots during the reception. Don't even get me started on the 'custom wedding website' we were supposed to get. I ended up having to do it myself because no one would get back to me from BLS. They weren't timely on accepting our etransfer payments either. Overall, I really can't recommend BLS after my experience. I had high expectations and we paid a lot for photos that I feel are underwhelming and we had a very stressful start to my wedding day. Their website is misleading, most of the photos are NOT from the Toronto Team. They took a LONG time to get our photos to us as well.
