Dave Ardore traveled 2 1/2 hrs in the rain to shoot our wedding on the USS Lexington in Corpus Christi. He went above and beyond to make sure he caught every possible part of our w...

edding and reception and made sure it was perfect. Even though it was raining he captured so many amazing pictures on the ship and flight deck of the ship and made it so fun. He was a pleasure to work with. Dave went out of his way to help in every way he could. He stayed until the very end of the reception making sure he caught all of our special moments. I would 100% recommend Ardore Photography for all your video and photography needs. Thank you Dave for capturing our special Military Wedding.

Dave and Tracy are FANTASTIC!!! You can't beat the price for the value of product they give you!! Our engagements and my bridals were beyond beautiful and exactly what I hoped for!...

We were only married 10 days ago, so I haven't received the wedding pictures yet, but I don't have to see them to know that they are going to be WONDERFUL! Dave and Tracy are so fun and easy to work with! Dave goes above and beyond the call of duty to get the best portraits ever! And man does he make us look good!! :) He was never overwhelming or trying to get us to do anything that didn't feel natural. I will recommend him to anyone getting married and definitely continue to use them for anything that comes up in the future! Thanks Dave and Tracy y'all are the best!!

Dave with Ardore was absolutely amazing!!!!! He went above and beyond to make sure he caught every possible part of our preparation and wedding. We also rented his photo booth wall...

for the reception and it was perfect! He is a pleasure to work with and so was his assistant. During a crazy morning, trying to get prepared for the big moment, Dave went out of his way to help in every way he could. He stayed until the very end of the reception making sure he caught all of the late night shenanigans as well. We can not wait to see the finished product! I would 100% recommend Ardore for videography, photography and photo wall needs!
