We had our wedding in June 2022 and hiring Abben and Lily as our photographers was one of the best decisions that we had made. We fell in love with the photos they posted on their ...
website and since we had never taken professional photos before, we were unsure if they would be able to do the same for us. However, the photos they took went above and beyond what we expected. They were truly worth every penny and you could feel their experience/style in every photo. They were extremely pleasurable to work with and was one of our vendors that eased our anxiety throughout the whole process. We've framed so many of the photos they took and they look beautiful in our house. If you are looking for the best photography for your event, I highly recommend Abben & Lily.
We originally had a different wedding photographer booked since 2019 but they were not communicative like emails about when we would hear from them again would go unanswered. So, a...
fter a couple postponements due to the pandemic and it looked certain we would FINALLY have our wedding in 2022, we knew we wanted a change. We found Abben and Lily from SAW (IYKYK) just by luck in Feb of 2022. Yes, only 4 months before the wedding! Immediately, it was a stark different. Abben was our point person and was very responsive. As this was an unforeseen and un-budgeted item, we only booked the one photographer package and Abben was our photographer. The day of the wedding, he was great and the photos came out gorgeous. We are so glad and relieved to have switched. It was a hectic day but we were so happy to go through the pictures and surprised at the moments he was able to capture. Truly ecstatic to have this day captured perfectly after 4 years of planning.
Abben and Lily were phenomenal to work with from start to finish. Our August 2020 wedding underwent major changes due to Covid, and we sincerely appreciated Lily's flexibility. She...
even let us pick her brain about some of the changes, and her suggestions were spot on. Most importantly, we absolutely love the photos. We said we were hoping for casual candid shots, and Lily delivered. Abben and Lily are organized, friendly, professional, and great at what they do.
Abben and Lily were SO wonderful to work with. We were originally supposed to get married in August 2020, but had to cancel due to COVID. We went through several backup plans and L...
ily was so flexible and willing to work with us on all of them, even when we ultimately settled on a date only a month in advance. We had a great time shooting with Lily the day of too. Lily put us both at ease and managed to capture us just being ourselves. She had lots of great prompts and questions to get us talking and laughing and just generally having a good time. Even my husband, who does not love having photos taken and can't hold a straight face for more than a minute talked about how much he enjoyed taking our wedding photos :) The photos themselves turned out lovely - they are high quality, classic, and they capture our personality and relationship. Our parents (including my dad who used to shoot weddings and works with pro photographers regularly), kept saying how lovely they are and how glad they were to have the photos. Overall, I'd highly recommend Abben and Lily! Thank you again!

ont of the camera and worked with us to get the shots we wanted. The photos turned out beautifully and he also did an amazing job capturing us with Fall scenery and multiple backdrops. This was a second, out of state engagement shoot for us so we had a different wedding photographer, but we would definitely recommend Abben&Lily. We loved how special the experience and photos were for us!
Abben and Lily have been such a blessing to us! We found out about them through a friend for our engagement shoot. We loved our engagement photos so much (and our families could ...
NOT get over them!) that our choice was clear for our wedding photographers. Flash forward to 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic changed every plan we had for our wedding. Abben and Lily were so accommodating and flexible with our constantly evolving plans. We ended up having a tiny intimate wedding with just our immediate families in our chapel, and a quick backyard lunch to celebrate. Abben and Lily blended in and let the day unfold organically – our wedding day was carefree and perfect. They made our bridal photos fun, with just the right amount of direction and allowing us to be our goofy selves (even helping us to film a TikTok)! We absolutely love how they’ve captured our day exactly as it was – full of light and joy – through beautiful photos that we will treasure forever.

getting to know them. They were also great about following our schedule on the day of the wedding. The two were incredibly prepared, and again, made our day entirely less stressful. My husband and I would highly recommend them!
Abben and Lily are wonderful to work with! They are so friendly, super communicative, and worked with us to plan a really personalized and intimate engagement shoot with our puppy....
The photos are GORGEOUS and their prices are incredible!
Abben and Lily are professional and fun to work with. We did both engagement and wedding photos with them and they were low stress and comfortable experiences, and the pictures are...
beautiful! Coming from a stressed bride, I recommend making sure that you have a clear agreement on the shots you want, method of payment, communication plan, etc to ensure you both get what you need. Abben and Lily undoubtedly will work it out with you graciously, but make sure it is defined. Then they will get you the most important thing - gorgeous photos that capture your spirit and personality!
