Wow, where to begin? Ok - starting with the general photos and vibe. When browsing for a photo…read morevendor, I'd been seeing a lot of airy pictures or color that was orangey - meh. I wanted something that looked like the cover of a romance novel. A romantic vibe. During this journey, we were introduced to this Lin and Jirsa (referred by a venue I think? Not quite now). Fast forward - I had an amazing experience with Juliana for our engagement photo shoot. Honestly, I wasn't even going to do the engagement photo shoot but the more I looked at Lin and Jirsas photos the more obsessed I got. Once you commit, you fill out a questionnaire and they even ask for inspo photos, good AND bad which I thought was cool! I'm so so so happy that Juliana will be with me on my upcoming wedding day. She was really great at coaching poses, which I was super nervous about. She showed photos in real time. Might I add, it's absolutely fascinating what settings on a camera, and someone holding a lighting stick can produce. The photos she showed me in real time looked like the magic that was produced in our viewing album! She was receptive to feedback about how I felt about myself in pics. Me: "My arm looks skinnier but when my hand is on my hip but I don't want to look like I'm trying to be skinny and have the same pose so like um, I don't know what I want." Juliana "I got you! Let's try this!" No hesitation. She also was very purposeful with the photos she took. She wasn't aimlessly snapping her camera with hopes of a good one - she was intentional and thoughtful. Julianas personality was great - engaging, funny, thoughtful. Her lighting assistant Diana (I think that was her name, so sorry I don't quite remember!) was super easy going too and took the direction of whatever vision Juliana had. The support team that emails you is very nice and efficient. I feel bad that I've not gotten back to them nearly as quickly as they replied to me! The original beach we selected Victoria Beach, ended up having super high tide so when we got there, she immediately had Plan B, no time wasted. When we got to the beach, we really wanted a picture with this seal we saw on a rock (from a safe distance of course so as to not bug). It looks like CGI but she got the pic!! She was climbing over rocks and really putting in effort to get good shots! At the end of the shoot I spontaneously wanted to get in the water and she happily snapped some shots and they came out great! (Visible in my post here). If you have any thoughts or concern about the cost or if it's a good idea - ITS THE BEST IDEA, do it!!! Before I ever saw their site (well, stared at it for hours) I never knew this was something I would want, or feel comfortable with. If you're getting married and are unsure because hey, weddings are insanely expensive, remember that your pics with live forever. So just commit, enjoy the process, and look forward to being absolutely in love with the magic this company creates!

Booked a call with Shilpa, and then today she is totally unreachable (including anyone at the studio). This was for my parent's golden anniversary and this group was the first on my mom's list. Received an email response from her explaining about covid and last minute emergencies, which I get. Stuff happens, but next time a simple email/text/smoke signal would be just common courtesy. But as you can see from her email, didn't seem like a huge deal to lose a customer. Must be nice. Needless to say we will be going with someone else. Taking this as a blessing in disguise!

We've received our sneak peeks so far, and we absolutely love them. Our guests have also been loving the photos and have commented on how professional, detail-oriented, and kind Kelly and her team were throughout the wedding day. They captured so many beautiful moments and emotions, and we can't wait to see the full collection. Even from the sneak peeks, it's clear how talented they are and how much care they put into their work. We're so grateful to Kelly and the entire Encor Studio team for being part of such an important day for us. We already know these memories will mean so much to us for years to come!

If you only read one line from this review, please read this;…read more Kelly and the team are the best photographers in the business and you should absolutely hire them. Encor previously shot engagement & wedding photo's for my brother-in-law's and the pictures came out absolutely wonderful, so we decided to also go with them for our engagement and wedding photography needs. They made the engagement shoot extremely easy, providing a list of recommended shooting locations and even scoped out the perfect area for us based on our request. On our wedding day we were worried as heavy rains were forecasted. The team did a great job of scouting out the area and giving us plan B's and plan C's in case we needed alt shooting locations. The photography was amazing and did a great job of helping us keep our energy up while keeping everything relaxed. The photographers were so creative with different lighting effects and camera angles despite not being familiar with the new wedding venue we chose. We feel they certainly got the best photos possible and were great with making accommodations for requests during the ceremony and reception. We received a few sneak peeks of our photos and are absolutely blown away so far! We couldn't be happier with choosing Encor and would encourage anyone that is looking for the best possible team and pictures to utilize them!

His creativity, attention to detail, and ability to capture the most meaningful moments is something truly special. Somehow, he took all of the love, emotion, and little moments that made our day unforgettable and turned them into a film that lets us relive it over and over again.

He was thorough in his work from start to finish. He made sure to reassure us that he understood the vision, and his execution proved he could capture what we wanted -- and what we never knew we needed. Donnie exuded so much passion for his craft and built trust with us in each step of booking, filming, and showing us the final work. My only regret is not hiring him for the reception in the next couple of months, but I love that I cry every time I watch what he filmed. I can't wait to share all of it with everyone at the reception and see them cry ugly tears with me! Thank you, Donnie, for letting us see how the rest of the world sees our love for each other. It's stunning, beautifully elegant, and made the day unforgettable!

Literally, our engagement pictures we didn't have to ask if she was there and most of all, our wedding day, I never even got in contact with her to see if she made it. She arrived on time and got busy with no questions asked. I actually didn't even know she had arrived until she came to the room for pre-ceremony pictures of getting ready. Our group had a blast with her, she's so easy to be around and get along with. Totally adore everything about her and how "go-with-the-flow" she is. It was a perfect match for how "go-with-the-flow" my husband and I are. Not to mention, Kristel's work is out of this world! We couldn't be happier with our choice in a wedding photographer.

He responded to emails quickly, then we chatted over the phone for about 30 minutes about what we were looking for in a wedding photographer. It was clear that Karl was the right guy for us. He is so passionate and knowledgeable about his craft, but he also let us have autonomy and freedom with what we wanted/didn't want (unlike some other photographers we chatted with who kept trying to upsell us on larger packages, or do an engagement shoot, which we didn't want, etc.). On the actual wedding day - WOW, Karl was amazing! From the moment he arrived to the moment he left (~8 hours), he was patient, calm, encouraging, and just seemed so happy to be there. He made us feel so comfortable. My husband and I are pretty camera shy, and we were worried that shooting the "stage-y" wedding photos would be awkward, but it actually turned out to be one of our favorite parts of the day! Just hanging out with each other and Karl during that time in between ceremony and reception taking our photos was just so much fun. Karl also took some genuine, candid photos of our families and friends during pre-ceremony and reception. There were so many moments he captured that we didn't know were happening! He got great shots of family and friends seeing each other for the first time in a long time before the ceremony, our families dancing, people hugging at the end of the night, the best man speech with a shot of his fiancé watching, shots of couples and friends taking photos with each other, etc. If you want to ACTUALLY experience your wedding day, hire Karl so he can capture not just YOUR moments, but also your guests' moments. We cannot thank Karl enough for making us comfortable in front of the camera and for capturing the little micro moments we were feeling. We can't stop looking at these photos. They make us so happy and they are just lovely. He captured us in the most beautiful and authentic way.

They were professional, attentive, and really easy to work with. Karl also shot our engagement session in Joshua Tree, which was so much fun--he made us feel comfortable right away and brought such great creative energy. On the wedding day, the full team was amazing. They were super accommodating with all of our requests, blended into the background when needed, but also gave great direction when it was time to get the shot. We can't wait to see the final photos and video. Highly recommend Karl and his team if you're looking for someone who's both talented and easy to work with!

How can I possibly put into words how incredible it was to work with Marni?…read more Marni was our wedding planner for our July 2026 wedding, and she was an absolute godsend. Operationally, she kept every ball in the air without ever seeming stressed. Her vendor recommendations alone were worth their weight in gold. Every partner she suggested was excellent, clearly vetted, and a great fit for what we wanted, and her relationships with them often meant preferred rates we never would have gotten on our own. She essentially paid for herself. And when we hit decision fatigue (which happens more than you'd think), she knew exactly how to help us cut through it. We genuinely looked forward to our calls with her, and her follow-up meant nothing ever got lost in the shuffle. Planning a wedding with her felt less like a job and more like working with a friend who happens to be scarily organized. On the day itself, she was a rockstar. The entire day went off without a hitch, and I know that's because she was quietly solving problems and keeping every vendor on schedule so we never had to think about any of it. We just got to enjoy our wedding. We cannot say enough good things about Marni and her team. 6/5 stars.
