The second photographer, Jenn, she killlled it with all the groom's photos. So many awesome snaps were taken for me to look back on moments I missed throughout the day. Some amazing shots of my guests just enjoying themselves have been my favorite to look back at. Thank you so so much to Pauleen , Dustin, and Jenn!! Also, before Dustin entered my bridal suite, Pauleen asked if it was okay for him to enter, and I think even her going that extra step to ask if he could enter really was so sweet and I am so touched she was so thoughtful. During my big day when I just felt like Mickey Mouse smiling for the crowd, Pauleen and Dustin kept the energy upbeat and kept reminding me to breathe. Loved them so much!! Can't imagine my day without them. We also snuck into the Windmill Food Hall arcade to sneak some photos since we were so good on our timeline and they turned out to be some of my favorite photos!

He also was extremely efficient with his time, was an absolute pleasure to be around, and went above and beyond to capture our special moments. He brought the most positive energy and we were all laughing the entire day. It is clear the Brandon is an extremely skilled and dedicated professional.

From our initial consultation calls to follow-up emails, timelines, and thoughtful attention to detail, she made us feel comfortable and special every step of the way. She truly went above and beyond by cheering us on, sending beautifully packaged welcome gifts, and later a lovely USB box with all of our wedding photos. My husband and I aren't natural "posers," and we really needed someone who could help us feel at ease while capturing beautiful moments. Brittany did exactly that. During every photo, she radiated excitement and positivity, making the experience feel effortless and fun. I honestly can't imagine having anyone else photograph such an important day. We're so grateful to have had her as part of our wedding.

Thank you to Astray Videography for capturing our wedding day on June 30th, 2024. We initially met…read moreBrittney over the phone and she was extremely kind and I could hear the passion in her voice throughout our conversation. She asked questions I didn't think of and truly made us feel involved from day one. Her and her husband, Andy, are very knowledgeable and highly experienced. Andy and his video team were extremely professional, creative, and kind to each of our bridal parties, family, friends, and guests on our big day. We never felt rushed. The energy they brought was exactly what we were looking for! Hearing from our guests "how amazing" they thought our video team was made us feel so good! We feel lucky to have had a very talented and down-to-earth team that we could laugh with and rely on at every moment throughout our day. We unfortunately could not afford to book their photography package in addition to video, so we did have a separate photographer. When booking with Astray, we spoke of this and Brittney did advise us, very respectfully, to consider booking their team as it would be smoother. SO, a tip for you, if you are considering booking both... DO IT; BOOK BOTH ASTRAY VIDEO AND ASTRAY PHOTO. I would also love to give Astray a shout-out as they were extremely professional and patient with our photographer who they did not have any previous experience working with. It made us, the Bride and Groom, feel at ease knowing we could count on Astray to help lead, navigate, and communicate important moments between the photo and video teams. They were always relaxed and very respectful. Even though we live in Arizona, we will absolutely use Astray again in the future! Traveling to have photos taken by them will be worth it. We highly recommend their team to anyone who asks and are proud of the wedding video they put together for us. It is a gift that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Something that we get to show our future children, grandchildren, and generations to come. It has also been so fun to see our wedding moments as "reels" on their social media. This is such a unique way for everyone to relive it! (especially those who weren't even at the wedding) THANK YOU for being a very important part of the most magical day of our lives and creating a unqiue wedding video for us. I wish we would have been able to book you for photos too! We are forever grateful and also look forward to seeing the raw footage as it becomes available. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! (We've attached screenshots from our wedding video to our review)

Her use of light is unparalleled as is her use of nature as the background. Her photographs are majestic, expansive, soft, golden, magical and real. She captures great candids. We have 2 kids and that is always hard but she had several tricks up her sleeve to get the kids to look and she got some amazing shots of the whole family. I just want to frame all the photos she took and cover my house wall to wall =) She's also patient, easy-going and just a overall pleasure to work with. I never share photos of my family on yelp. But I'll break my own rule so you can see how amazing she is.

Her communication is spectacular. We were always kept in the loop of all logistics and details. We were also consulted and collaborated on things like location and attire. She was knowledgeable and very open to discussion. The day of the shoot, she was a pleasure to work with. She was patient with the little kids, caring towards the elderly, and fun with the rest. She worked so well with all of us, of all different ages. She not only got all the shots we wanted and hoped for, but continued to take additional candids, adding even more memories captured. After the shoot she delivered the final products and we were floored. They were all wonderful. They were even better than expected, with 3 little ones under 5 running around. Cindy captured way more shots than we anticipated. We will for sure be using Cindy again, and again, and again. We are so lucky to have found her. If you are looking for a phenomenal all around photographer, she's the one.

There aren't enough words of praise in the English language for Shaun of Top Shelf Photo! We were…read morelucky enough to find him on Yelp for our engagement photos, and in mid-November of 2024 he braved the chill of Palomar Mountain to take spectacular photos of us. Nonstop compliments from friends and family, and received much quicker than anticipated. Once we got into wedding planning, Shaun was the obvious choice for our photography needs. Along with his second shooter Jess (Jessica Christie Photography), he again knocked it out of the park. Couldn't have asked for more perfect photos. On a more personal note, Shaun is the above-and-beyond type of person to take the absolute best shots possible. Like, fixing the boutonniere on my suit himself for the exact right angle, or gently shoo'ing away stinkbugs while helping my wife to re-tie her wedding shoes type of person. His passion and dedication for his craft are inspiring, and I guarantee if you don't love being in photos as a general rule (like myself) he will absolutely put you at ease and make it look like you've been modeling all your life. Thank you for everything Shaun, from the bottom of our hearts.

I am late in writing this review since our event was in November last year however I felt it is…read moreimportant to write one... I believe it's fair to give your opinion especially in these types of situation since people book photographers for special occasion and I felt I let others know about what kind of job Amari Productions did for us. With that being said our experience will this company was not good at all. We were extremely disappointed with the photography service provided for our son's wedding. This was the first wedding in our family, and we trusted the team to capture one of the most important and emotional moments of our lives. Unfortunately, the final results fell far below our expectations. Around 35-40% of the photos in the gallery that they provided were duplicates or nearly identical shots with the same angles and poses repeated over and over again. Many important ceremonies were covered very poorly, in several key moments, the photos only showed the backs of people instead of capturing the actual ceremony, emotions, and expressions that mattered most. What makes this even more frustrating is that we had a detailed video call with both the coordinator and the photographer before the wedding. We clearly explained the important ceremonies, family moments, and expectations in advance, so we genuinely believed everything would be handled professionally. Sadly, we now feel that many once-in-a-lifetime memories were not properly captured, and that is something we can never recreate. Wedding photographs are meant to preserve moments for future generations, and it is heartbreaking to feel disappointed when looking back at such an important event. The most disappointing thing was that I communicated my disappointment with two people and neither one of them offered any kind of solution that could have made me feel better. Sometime in situation like this the senior people of the company such as the owners or founders contact the customers and try to see how they can help satisfy the customers but in this case no one bothered. This shows how much they care for their customers. My wife and I regret using this company... we wish we would have done a better job in searching for the right photography company.
