Simply The Best!! Armen was born to be a wedding photographer. She gets excited by new ideas, and most of all is always willing to go above and beyond for her couple! My husband and I could not be happier with Armen, or our wedding photos! Her ...photos perfectly capture all of the sweat, love, and tears that went into planning our wedding, as well as the raw emotions and utter joy that our guests exuded. When planning, my fiance and I always said we wanted our wedding to be fun first and foremost, crafty and unique, and for everyone to enjoy themselves fully. And all of that comes through so vividly in our wedding photos; even the formal photos exhibit that air of being stunning mementos, but also reflection of so much fun and happiness of that day.
Upon our first visit to the Glasbern Inn (our wedding venue), my fiance and I perused the wedding albums provided, and were very impressed by one from Armen Elliott. We immediately went home and researched further, only to confirm our suspicion that Armen was very talented, and exactly the kind of photographer we wanted for our wedding; she was the first vendor we booked!
Even from our email interactions, you could sense the passion and excitement that Armen had. And our suspicions were confirmed again when we met at her house for our consultation, and spent the next hour talking about our vision/inspiration, her style, and adding on some "extras" to our package, including an engagement photo shoot in NYC (where we live) and another shoot on the mountain where my fiance asked me to be his GF 5 years prior. We got our first taste of Armen's photography style during our engagement shoot; she was on fire - moving swiftly, envisioning and capturing amazing angles and candid shots that perfectly capture our chemistry and playful spirit. Plus, the three of us had a blast doing it!
For our wedding day, Armen showed up again with high passion and energy, and a razor-sharp focus considering the chaos that ensues on the morning of a wedding. Talk about HUSTLE! Armen was back and forth between the girls' room and guys' room, making sure she was capturing all of the important moments between friends and family, as well as the details.
Her organization and direction made our formal photos smooth and efficient, and she was able to keep everyone focused without being surly, like other photographers I've worked with before. She made it effortless. Once the wedding officially kicked off, Armen & her second photographer were quick on their feet, moving around everybody to capture the wedding from all angles!
