Every photographer whose work I loved was completely out of my price range and/or far away, until I found Allie right after she relocated from Chicago. I feel like I got work whose value is worth several times what I paid.
Leading up to t...he wedding, Allie was prompt in all communication, friendly, and helpful.
Allie did a fantastic job photographing our garden wedding! Due to living across the country, we were unable to meet her before the wedding, but she was able to make us feel immediately at ease. Her work style is inconspicuous, and the resulting product was beautiful! Neither myself nor my husband is very photogenic, but Allie was able to capture us naturally, and the result was a set of photos that we will treasure forever and that has received many compliments.
The only regret I have is that I was very impatient with the formal photos; there are a lot of shots that I thought of afterward that I would have liked--but this was in NO way Allie's fault! She prodded several times to see if I wanted more photos. I also wish that I would have relaxed and acted more natural during the portraits of my husband and I. My husband and I plan to remedy this with another photo shoot with Allie in a year or two. Brides, please do yourselves a favor and start thinking of photos you'll want months in advance of the wedding; I waited to make the list the week of the wedding and my mind was too distracted to think of everything I'd thought of before and not written down.
I have not yet ordered any products beyond the digital images from Allie, but we intend to do so later this year. I can update my review on those products after we have gone through that process.
If we did it again, we'd go with Allie Siarto again. Thank you, Allie, for amazing photos and memories! The quality of your work is far beyond what you charge.
