    Working with Brian has been so frustrating that I don't even know where to start. Be very wary of…read moreBKM photography. They have much cheaper prices than some of their competitors, but I guess it all comes down to you get what you pay for. My biggest frustration was the EXTREME amounts of time we had to wait for our products. My package included 100 wallets, which took over 6 months to receive, a framed 16x20 which took 5 and a half months, 200 4x6 prints which took over 5 months, and our album and 2 parent albums which took a full year and 3 weeks to receive. Worse than the waiting was the customer service. Never once did I get proactive information from him regarding wait times. I would wait for the duration that his instructions indicated were set for the different items, then I would wait a week or two because I understand there can be delays but by that point after not hearing anything, I was frustrated. I always had to follow up with him myself. Often I didn't hear back from him at all, I tried leaving message and emails at different times. Now this makes it sound that I was nagging him, but I can honestly say that was not the case, I never called and asked him about the status of my products until at least a week or 2 after the amount of time he had indicated I should expect to wait. I even had to have my mother get involved. I am 30 years old and definitely am not one of those millennials who has there mom do everything for them. I've been scheduling my own doctors appointments for about half of my life and my mother has never once interfered in my college, job search or professional careers, however, when I call Brian, and don't hear for a week, so I email, and still don't hear for a week so I call again, at some point I had to take it one step farther. It's funny how after not hearing from him for weeks, within hours of contact from my mom, I would have a response... very interesting. I can honestly say that in contacting him I was polite and merely asking when I might expect to get my items. It's probably hard to believe in a review such as this, but if you know me you would understand, and you can check out my other reviews to see they are very fair and honest. What was frustrating was Brian's response to my followups which were lectures about waiting your turn, and how they work in order received to be fair to everyone, and how he doesn't rush things because he takes so much pride in his work. Now I can fully appreciate those comments, but in waiting 5 and 6 times the number of weeks indicated to receive my items, at some point those words stop meaning anything. The albums were my biggest frustration, and made me question Brian's comments of how he takes so much pride in his work. Now the album itself is nice enough, leather sort of cover, thick pages which look nice and the photos are clear, but many of the pages are off center, with the margins having extreme differences from top to bottom (i.e 1 inch margin at the top of the page and 1/4 in margin at the bottom), etc. This after waiting 23 weeks from the date of sending in my final designs, a time which according to all of the directions he sends out to his clients should have taken no more than 8 to 10 weeks. Each updates took an average of 10 weeks, when the directions say 2 weeks. Not only that, but often the changes I requested were not honored and I had to ask for them again. Needless to say i'm a little disappointed that after all that time, many pages are not centered. As for the wedding day itself, Brian and his partner were there all day, and overall I have some good shots. They are nice enough, but are very standard bridal party and bride and groom photos, however they definitely are missing the creativity that seems to be popular these days, and I see in some of my friends photos. They are not centered well either. They are simply ok. It also was a windy day, which obviously the photographer can't control, but he did very little to try to come up with solutions for my veil blowing all over and getting in peoples faces for the photos. On the day of the wedding we were getting ready is this gorgeous brick building at NU and outside they had purple mums and pumpkins adorning the stairs and entryway. As my colors were purple and orange this was a perfect set up. My mom asked Brian to go take some photos outside by them after he finished taking photos of us getting ready and he told her no. I heard him and when I asked he did agree, but rather grudgingly. The photos from there were gorgeous with the backdrop and my only regret is not pushing him to take more there, and i'm frustrated I almost missed out on the opportunity. Overall Brian was very frustrating to work with, however he was much cheaper than the competition. Just know going in that you will wait a long time to get your items and face a lot of frustration in doing so.

    Do not book with this company! Took me at and a half to get my wedding package. Horrible with…read morecommunication. Left my pic, albums and canvas all on my porch without any notification. 3 different times. Just got my canvas today Dec 3 2018 (married may 20th 2017) and it was wrapped in a tops bag laying on my porch. Absolutely unprofessional. Takes no responsibility and has lied. Spare yourselves

    Dear reader of this review,…read more Stefan is amazing! The work he does really speaks for itself. My husband and I were a little late in the game when it came to finding a photographer. We wanted someone who could do both photography and videography, and that's when we found Stefan. From the very beginning, he was so kind and such a joy to work with. On our very first Zoom call, we already knew he was the one we wanted. At the time, he was in Germany--it was midnight for him, but 6 PM for us here in the States. Anyone willing to stay up that late just to get to know us is clearly dedicated to their clients! Even though we had already taken our own engagement photos, Stefan offered us a free session with him so we could get comfortable working together before the wedding. I'm so glad he did, because it made our actual wedding day so much easier and more relaxed. On the big day, Stefan and Colin were not only kind but also super attentive. Colin kept checking that we stayed hydrated (it was such a hot day!), and both of them made sure everything we needed was taken care of. Watching them work together was such a treat--they make a great team. So if you're on the fence about booking Stefan for photos or video--just do it! You won't regret it. Thank you again, Stefan, for everything you did. We'll definitely be back whenever we need a photographer! From two very happy newlyweds, Jasmine & Sage Fiorucci

    Stefan was amazing to work with for our wedding at the Delaware Park Marcy Casino in September…read more2022. From the start he was responsive, fun, and great at guiding us through the process. He was amazing to work with; our meetings with him were fun and put us at ease while also being incredibly informative. Even though we were planning our wedding from out of town, we never had a difficult time getting in touch. Day of, he went above and beyond, traveling with us to a few locations for pictures and walking us through a variety of shots. He even stayed a bit late to make sure he captured everything we wanted when the reception was running behind schedule. He had a few preview photos ready to see before the reception even ended and had all the rest available for us to view in an easily accessible online gallery a few weeks later. His giffy booth was also a hit with our guests. Our photos turned out gorgeous! He has a great eye for the posed shots but was also great at capturing people smiling and having fun naturally, which is exactly what we wanted. I could not recommend anyone more highly.
