I had previously seen Jake's work so I knew the quality of the McAnally's work: clear and crisp…read morephotos. I remember driving in the golf cart to different photoshoot spots on the wedding day with my wife, the McAnally's, and our video crew and being so thankful for the team around us. Pro Tip: Write down/email ahead of time shots you'd like for family photos, ceremony, etc. so you know what to prioritize and know what you can hand over for creative reign/room. For example it rained on our day so we got some mismatching umbrellas, with "it's raining" faces in our audience. However, we had some flexibility during our reception and the McAnally's took us out for a night photoshoot project which turned into some really cool photos we will treasure forever (attached).

We hired Jake and Tab (McAnally Moments) to shoot our wedding in Lake Tahoe on 8/6, and quite…read morefrankly they were the best vendor hire we made for that day. Let me tell you why: 1. Together they are a dynamic duo. They both have a special eye on what makes a shot great: Tab is great at ensuring small and easily overlooked details are just right (like my hair not laying right, or the guy's jackets bunching up in odd spots), and Jake is great at posing the shot in the most balanced and beautiful way. They are dedicated and uncompromising in their vision. "Good enough" isn't in their vocabulary or work ethic. 2. They are professionals in knowing how to execute a busy, schedule-packed day. Weddings are stressful enough, knowing it's one thing after another. While myself and the bridesmaids were running behind in Hair/Makeup, Tab and Jake were on top of it, being flexible to adjust their timing on where they were supposed to be (with us vs the groomsmen). Additionally, Tab kept reassuring me that we would still get all the shots we wanted/needed, and she was RIGHT. They timed and adjusted everything perfectly so we could still have an off-site First Look & wedding party photoshoot BEFORE the ceremony, despite our time crunch. Just WOW. 3. Some comments on here have recounted stories that, based on my experience, seem to be over-dramatized. I found Tab and Jake to both be very receptive to shot requests and ideas, from all parties!! They have a gung-ho enthusiasm and directness that I found reassuring on such a stressful day. They took command of their (major) responsibilities for the day and ensured that everything would be perfect for us. One story I'll recount that I was particularly thankful for: My fiance has a large extended family, and we wanted to avoid getting stuck in a loop of pictures after the ceremony. Jake and Tab had our preferred shot list, and helped us stick to it. When the extended family began creeping in to ask for photos, Jake and Tab politely but professionally handled the situation for us. It's awkward to tell our own family 'no', but they handled it for us. Whew! 4. They are so incredibly hard working. They were literally somehow in 100 places at once, getting all the photos and video that we wanted. While I know they were everywhere at once, they also did not interfere with the wedding day or the guests. They made sure that the day was about us. TLDR: Jake and Tab take amazing and creative photos. They are professionals who take ownership of their responsibilities day of, and I trusted them wholeheartedly to guide us through the day. Best vendor hire for my wedding, hands down.

The lady who did my eyebrows was not friendly at all -- she barely spoke to me, did not welcome me, and simply commanded "sit." Very bad actitud! She rushed through my eyebrows in about 2 minutes, and it definitely showed in the final result. One eyebrow was left noticeably thinner than the other. When she handed me the mirror, she did it in a rushed manner and immediately walked to the register to charge me, making it difficult to properly notice the unevenness at the time. I have had my eyebrows threaded many times before, and never has anyone done them this quickly or carelessly. I left very unsatisfied with both the customer service and the quality of the work. Unfortunately, I will not be returning.

He wasn't corny like you some times get with DJs, made limited announcements (not like other DJs who like to hear themselves talk...) and made sure the music was appropriate for all of the wedding guests. I can honestly say not ONE person was in their seat when the music started and everyone was bummed when it ended. He did a great job entertaining our guests and we were so pleased at the end of the night. Thank you so much Exclusive Sound Productions!!
