Beautiful venue!…read more Loved that the valet was complimentary. The gentleman were so nice and friendly. They took great care of our car. The gentleman working the door at the venue warned us of the steps and was very polite opening doors for us. One you walk in you're swept away by the beauty. So much attention to detail. I spoke to the staff for a bit by the food so kind and wonderful to get to know we chatted about Target haha The bartenders were just as lovely. Loved the unique drinks. Food was delicious. Highly recommend

Fantastic, is an understatement on how my experience was. Bernie was great to work with from start…read moreto finish. From setting up appointments, to meeting in person, making us feel comfortable in our Engagement pictures and our wedding pictures. He had our whole wedding party smiling the entire day. Bernie is so easy to work with and he took amazing engagement pictures in Tower Grove Park and then captured our wedding day this past October beautifully. He took well over 2,000 pictures on our wedding day and it is so hard to choose our favorites! We had so many compliments on our engagement and wedding pictures. Side note: Bernie took wedding pictures for my husband's parents and Aunts and Uncles and that's how we got our recommendation. Bernie knows what he's doing and he's great at what he does. He has poses that are your basic traditional ones but also pictures that were ones that were not so traditional but made the best pictures. Thank you to everyone one at Bernie Elking Photography for making our pictures memories we will never forget.

Thank you, Bernie Elking, for being the photographer for my wedding day! My husband and I were…read moreimpressed with your professionalism, charisma, and exceptional customer service! This past June, Bernie was able to fit us into his schedule 3 weeks before our set wedding date (we hired him last minute due to the Corona Virus pushing off our wedding). He was very understanding and accommodating with our needs, and exceeded our expectations! On the big day, he arrived to the church early and started shooting before I had even arrived. He didn't say anything regarding me being tardy, but rather welcomed me to join as he continued to get shots of the wedding party and family. Not really knowing how to pose ourselves individually or in a group setting, we felt very comfortable with his direction and requests on how to place ourselves accordingly for the photos. I hired Bernie for two hours, and he stayed for well over 3 hours since the Holy Mass ran longer than expected. I offered to pay him for the extra time he worked, but he declined and said it was his pleasure and his wedding gift to us. My husband, family, and I are all looking forward to seeing the entire DVD collection of the photos Bernie shot! Thanks again, Bernie Elking, you're awesome!

Royal Photos was a great decision for us. We had planned on being extra and dressing up as cliche…read moreart critiques and explore local public works. However we didn't have the time to pull everything together and went into our session with zero ideas. After taking a look around the location that we'd chosen it was as simple as listening to directions. The turn around for our photos was unbelievably fast and the quality was amazing. When we picked our location I don't think that either of us could have imagined that the photos would turn out so incredibly gorgeous. Like we had expectations but they were blown out of the water by the final product. I'll trust you guys with anything and everything all day every day!

She has a great set up for the baby pictures with lots of options for props and accessories. She was so gentle and patient with the baby and got so many great shots. She was also great with my 2.5 year old son and able to get some great family pictures too. Stephanie was always very prompt in replying to messages and she took the time to discuss the sessions ahead of time to make sure we were on the same page with what kind of feel we wanted for the photos. Final edited images were available quickly. I couldn't have been happier with our experience and we will definitely be using Stephanie again.

She answered and quickly scheduled me for an appointment as soon as I landed in town. Completed in her home, she was professional and made sure I loved the job. I received henna on both hands, partial arms and some fingers. The cost was great and she was really quick. It's been 11 days, and the designs are still hanging on. I took her advice on caring for the henna and it worked great! I am pretty sure I would have paid her a visit before I left town, but she was heading to India for vacation. Suman is a very sweet person and you will not be sorry of her worked. She offered me the option to bring in photos, but I opted to just allow her to free-style on me. She also offers group events like parties, weddings, etc. if you prefer to have a group setting. Give her a call if you ever need some good henna!!!

I was very pleased with their online chat portal and I was updated with each and every step they were taking. I uploaded my church's logo with the special event logo and they were able to incorporate both into the photo print outs. On the day of the event, two team members showed up with plenty of time to get set up in crisp uniforms, well groomed, ready to go. I greeted them, gave them brief direction and they took it from there. They set up the inflatable and illuminated photo booth and two large tables of props and costume pieces. EVERYONE LOVED IT. There was consistently a line for the photobooth because everyone was drawn to it. They handled the line very well and kept the line moving quickly and comfortably. Being the director of a huge event, I was so pleased to have a "hands off" vendor who did was was expected during the entirety of the event. Can't wait to have them back for our next event!
