okay... so I really don't even know how to say it but this company is the perfect example of…read morePhotography perfection. Not even an overstatement. I think it's an UNDERSTATEMENT... Edward is probably the most personable and kind photographer I've ever met... NOT TO MENTION EXTREMELY TALENTED AND GIFTED. After firing my initial photographer, my husband and I were really researching who to select next... Don't get me wrong, I initially was going to hire second shots photography for all of my wedding needs but... I'm not sure why I did not. God quickly shook Me up When my photographer at the time completely screwed us up. Like, we were so irritated and upset with his service. PHOTOGRAPHY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OTHER THAN CINEMATOGRAPHY FOR YOUR WEDDING (and food! ) Edward had the BEST personality the day of my wedding ...never complained... super super friendly... always a smile on his face. annnnd when I say always...I mean like I ALWAYS saw him smiling and never seemed irritated or complacent or ANYTHING and we had a lot a lot a lot of stuff going on at the wedding! Let me tell you! Still, he and his crew were just very professional and very delightful l. I SERIOUSLY recommend him to eeeeeeveryone! Honestly... I'm waiting for my pictures right now and I'm so so anticipating its perfection. I had my weddings December 13th and 15th of 2018 (I'm Nigerian) and it was one of my most prized and my most rewarding investments! Super super grateful for you, Edward!

We used Ed for our wedding this past June, and not only were our pictures terrible and unedited, he…read morefailed to honor the contract by sending the pics a month past the contracted timeline. To make matters worse, he has yet to send our wedding highlights video and we're a whopping 6 months post wedding. Save yourself the trouble and DO NOT book Ed! He's unprofessional, unaccountable and greedy. You can get better photos for a better price without the hassle.

Above and beyond. That would sum up the photography services…read moreprovided to us by Maolo Photography on our destination wedding. They captured every detail and every moment of that gorgeous day. As a bride, there's so many things running in my head and at the end of the day, I was thinking - I should have had them take this or take that. The day just went by fast! So to my surprise, when I got the digital files (two months was quick!), I found everything I was hoping to see and more! They did a marvelous job - our family and friends couldn't stop raving about our photos - thanks to Mariemil and Paolo. In the interest of full disclosure, I do know them prior to hiring them. But in the wedding world were choices abound, we made sure to do our research, particularly in Maui where the wedding was held. After working with them for our engagement shoot, we knew we didn't have to search further. The engagement photos are quite iconic, and thankfully they took on the destination wedding job because they captured so many beautiful memories. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch photography service. Quality and service beyond one's expectation. Aloha and mahalo Maolo Photography!

Mariemil suggested we use the Cal State Long Beach Japanese Gardens as the backdrop for our family. Very nice. The location was free from crowds and had a number of beautiful settings including koi ponds, wooden bridges, walkways, foliage, etc. She suggested a number of different set-ups throughout the one hour sitting and we ended up with about 100 different photos. WAY more than we had expected. I absolutely LOVE what Mariemil and Paolo are doing. They are creating ART!! Highly recommend.

Perrrrrfect timing. I hired Joseph Was Here Photography for Yelp's Holiday Hoedown back in December 2010. Remember that super fun night? Since this was a community event benefiting charity (SEARCH Homeless Services), I had a certain budgie - and Joseph was more than happy to work with my numbers. Very thankful because he did a great job. The pics were uploaded to his site right after the event - and everyone loved them! The cool filters he uses (again, check out his blog) are neat lil' thing he does, and I heard nothing but great feedback from everyone about "the photo booth guy." I'd hire him again in a snap(shot).

Is it normal to love your photographer? Yes? Ok good. Because I love Joseph West. No really--I…read morefreakin' LOVE him. He is a photography genius. Such innate talent! Plus, he's just a super nice guy. I know cuz I've seen him build his business from scratch when it was just a hobby while he had an IT day job, and his success is well-deserved! He was the very first vendor I contacted when I got engaged--even before I started thinking about THE DRESS! Eek! I feel so incredibly lucky to have had him capture my engagement and wedding, but the cherry on top was how blessed I was to have his super awesome talented wife as the second photographer! Seriously, these two are a dynamic duo in every way, shape and form! If you have a chance to book them for your special event/day/photography session, thank your lucky stars!

I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!

We initially hired Raghu Uncle as our photographer / videographer for our engagement party in…read moreDecember 2016, following a recommendation from a close family friend. This was the BEST decision that we could have made. We were aware of his professionalism and quality of work, but were surprised at how personable he was and how he tried to customize each experience for his clients. Raghu Uncle immersed himself in our event. Leading up to the engagement party he was thorough; he tried to understand the type of shots we like to see, i.e. candid vs. portrait or colored vs. black / white, so he could deliver on the day of the event. He made himself available by phone, text and email to alleviate any concerns that we may have had leading up to the event, when stress levels were greatest. When asked, he was willing to go outside of the purview of his role as a photographer / videographer to ensure that our event was perfect by lending advice based on his experiences. After our engagement party, despite having other events to work, he was still accessible. Equally important, he delivered our engagement photos in a timely manner. This is an important consideration for all those looking to hire a photographer / videographer - how quickly can they edit, finalize and deliver the photos from your event to you. Raghu Uncle was able to give us ours in less than one month, despite being fully booked for other events. This left a lasting impression with us. Naturally, given our amazing experience during our engagement party, we hired him and his team for our wedding - despite it being in another city. Raghu Uncle quickly went from just another vendor to a friend. We had our pre-wedding shoot in another city, again, no issues from Uncle. We spent roughly 10 hours this day (including a break for lunch) taking photos. Throughout it all, Raghu Uncle was encouraging and enthusiastic. We were able to do three wardrobe changes and took shots from three different locations. Raghu Uncle saw that we were having fun and in turn, he was having fun. As I mentioned before, he tries to customize each experience so that it's perfect for the couple. In the end, we had a ton of photos in our arsenal! Finally, it was time for the wedding week. Raghu Uncle photographed and recorded four events for us. Throughout each of the four events, Raghu Uncle and team were where they needed to be. I'm certain that no stone was left unturned and no key moment went unphotographed. This speaks to the quality of their experience and moreover their attention to detail. To touch on one more aspect of our experience with Raghu Uncle, before moving on to costs, it has been a little over one month since our wedding has passed. At our one month mark, Raghu Uncle posted a few pictures on Facebook from our events. This showed me that we weren't just another number or event to him; it was a nice personal touch. We truly believe that Raghu Uncle and team are the best available and the easiest to work with. He was referred to us and it's only right that we pay this great experience forward to the next couple. Of course, like with all vendors, money is a relevant issue. In our experience, Raghu Uncle was the type of vendor to work with you. His primary goal was for us to have the best experience possible and not be overwhelmed with costs. My sense is that he is looking to make a fair and equitable accord, as opposed to becoming an overnight millionaire. He was genuinely the complete package - professional, personable and affordable - while delivering high quality shots and videos in a timely manner. I hope the detail from our experiences serves you all well as you consider a photographer / videographer for your event(s). Thank you again Raghu Uncle for making our experience wonderful and welcome to the Dallas wedding market!
