Abbie bull did my photography and videography for my engagement photos and wedding photos in August of 2022. This is a mixed review but I think she did an amazing job with my engagement pictures during our first session. The photos came to us fast and were all very good. But for my wedding it was not all good. Leading up to the wedding she did not do much to ask about personalization for the video/photos and was hard to get in touch with little communication. During our wedding day when they got to the venue it was just all very rushed and bossy. She was telling everyone what to do the entire time without even considering which photos I wanted and never asked if there was anything else I wanted to do in the moment. She had the survey months before the wedding but never asked what I wanted other than on the survey. Then second, DO NOT BOOK VIDEOGRAPHY with Abbie bull. Before the wedding there were no questions asked about how I would want my video or if there are particular things I want in the video. There was ZERO personalization in the video. I did not get to choose anything that I wanted for the video. I also had to keep reaching out to her asking when it was going to be done and there was very little communication that was started by her to me. Then when I got the video it had music that sounded generic and did not show what our wedding was actually like at all. There was also no sound other than the generic music in the background. I was so disappointed that I did not post it anywhere and will probably be finding a way to add my own music that I actually want in the background of the video.
Overall, she did come and shoot my wedding after having a car wreck with broken ribs and did have personal things happen throughout the time in between. So I am very glad that she did not cancel right before and leave us with no photographer. I do still wish that a lot of things would have gone differently and would not have booked with her if I would have known. I also know I could have been more vocal with my wants throughout the process but I was planning my own wedding and did not know what the process was and assumed that during the day she would consider what I want. Hopefully this helps someone who is planning their big day!
Addition: In her contract it does state that the vendor gets all creative outlook and judgement. And basically does state that there is no personalization. I am just warning other brides to pay attention to this and consider this when booking with her. If you want your wedding to be a reflection of you and not just her company then don't book with Abbie Bull. I was reminded very fast after posting this review that it was in the contract so I thought I would update the review to include that. read more
