Bellagala Photo + Video

especially did an amazing job! She was easygoing, friendly, fun, professional, and just helped me feel more relaxed because I knew she had the photos all handled.

ng everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. Bryce was not only fun and engaging, but he also gave perfect direction, ensuring that everything looked great without ever being intrusive. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made the whole process so enjoyable. We highly recommend Bryce to anyone looking for a talented, personable videographer!

chedule! Can’t wait to see our wedding photos!!

some of the shots the day of and I can’t wait!!

py with everything! So thankful to have Ty as part of our special day!

. We are so grateful to have chosen Caroline Stremic to tell our story. She was so fun, patient in coordinating our massive wedding party & family, organized, and skilled in capturing authentic and beautiful moments showcasing Chris and my love for one another. We cannot thank her enough for the energy and true gifts she brought to the table on our special day!

ctures that she took and would highly recommend her.

st to say how impressed they were with my photographer and how to get a hold of her. Best of all photos are beautiful!

omotion running when we made our decision. We even have a second photographer for five hours. Our engagement session was included in the price. They were also VERY timely getting us our wedding pictures back, during the busiest season of the year!

st during the family shots at the wedding, and it felt they weren't being careful at making sure they read everything. I had to correct them during the photos and actually got stressed because I recognized in the moment they were choosing to skip over combinations I asked for. It was my wedding day, and I took a long time to write out the family combinations with names included, and I felt they were a little careless with it honestly and made my day more stressful when I feel that was their job to be attentive to the picture information. I spent a long time writing out/ thinking about what I wanted in pictures. I was very detailed & clear and did what they asked me to do prior to the wedding. It was disappointing that because they were rushing and seemed to think some of the combinations I asked for weren't important, that they ended up being skipped over and now I cant get those moments back because of their complacency. The photographer I had was great at the artsy pictures, but me and my husband barely got any pictures just normal & smiling. I wish we could have gotten more than that, or pictures of us that were up close and not from a distance. This is also something we had asked for and didnt get. I loved my photographer the day of, she was fun and made us comfortable during the pictures. Although, she wasnt responsive in emails/ I didnt even know if she got my emails sometimes because most the time I didnt get any response from her. I let Bellagala & the photographer know afterwards about my disappointments with my photos/ the experience. The photographer never even reached back out to me or responded with that inquiry either. The experience was a little disappointing, but they still captured a lot of great pictures. Some that I asked for and some that I didn't. I do wish they would have been more responsive/ given better customer service and been a little more attentive to what I wanted with what I had asked for and written out for them/ talked to them about prior to the wedding. I would just make sure you and your photographer are on the same page if you use this vendor, and reach out to someone at the company if you dont hear from your photographer close to the wedding. There are many photographers that work for Bellagala so your experience may differ from mine if you use this vendor and have a different photographer. I would not use them again personally, but I know other people have had better experiences with Bellagala than we had.

ding and helped me easily take care of everything. We had Belinda Russell from Bellagala in Indy (we got married in Fort Wayne, IN) and she was absolutely amazing. She was professional, so much fun, and just the sweetest to work with- she made us feel like we had known her forever and she just happened to be taking photos for our big day. We got our photos back in 3 weeks (which is one of the fastest turn around times that I've ever seen!). I would highly suggest Bellagala because you can really make a package that best suits exactly what you want with professionals that love what they do.

dianapolis and Megan was so wonderful in helping me plan everything and get everything set up even though we were in different states. We did not meet until the day of the wedding, however we had talked on the phone and been in contact so much that I felt completely comfortable. On the day of the wedding, not only was Megan so pleasant to work with but she was also so accommodating to different shots we had decided we wanted last minute. She did an amazing job capturing every single moment of the wedding that we asked for and more! After seeing the pictures I was in tears. The photos she took were so artistic and beautiful and were the perfect way to remember the most special day. I can not say enough good things about Megan and how beautiful she made me look and feel in the photos she took. Thanks to her we will have these beautiful photos and memories to last us a life time!

ken first. There was a lot going on that day and it passed in the blink of an eye so I was very grateful to have such a professional photographer like Megan who knew what she was doing. She captured our day perfectly and I absolutely love my photos! I will cherish them forever.

stunning, the post production, however, was a little shotty. The color is great, but some of the photos are cropped terribly, totally off center. Luckily, I can alter some of them and it's really not that many photos that are bad. Overall, it was worth the price we paid.

photos we really wanted! I would book with Shaun again.

and worked with our cultural traditions by being respectful and flexible. Our personalities clicked right away and she quickly became my 6th bridesmaid on my wedding day as she was attentive to detail. She was kind, thoughtful, and most of all funny. She made a stressful day enjoyable. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was patient with our family photos. I would highly recommend Bellgala and Sarah as they truly made my wedding memorable. I am looking forward to seeing what memories she captured of our special day.

able which made it easier to be natural for the camera. We highly recommend her for any photographer needs you are looking for.

apher pictures were much better. Very expensive for not unprofessional photos.

quick and painless even in the cold weather! The rest of the day we barely even noticed anyone was taking photos of us. We’d definitely recommend her!

was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Her photography is timeless and real. We have recieved numerous compliments from family and friends about our wedding pictures.! Highly recommend!

/smoking instead of getting the requested candids. The photos she chose for our set were lazy and blurry. Now, 9 weeks after my wedding, I’m waiting to hear from someone about my photos. The initial set I was given had about 300 photos, with the remaining 400 that we paid for being repeats. Photos of my bridesmaids in the middle of eating while getting ready or blinking. Tons of photos of the food and my mother zipping up my dress, and only 5 of my guests dancing/candids. When confronting the business about this I’ve only received rude remarks such as, “you never specified you wanted photos of your guests”... what?!? Absolutely ridiculous, would not suggest, completely disappointed in the photos when I should be elated with wonderful memories.

t of the details for our wedding. She had also worked with our wedding day coordinator many times so the day of the wedding went extremely smooth. We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing pictures she captured throughout the day. She took us hiking around the venue property (outdoor barn wedding) and found some beautiful locations and took a lot of extremely creative pictures. We plan on using Kirsten for any future event photographer needs that we have and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

azing! He really captured the wedding for its true personality, and ours! We loved it!!!

day and made sure to keep everyone on task with our short time limit. She was fun to talk to, gave excellent advice, and I can't say how much I appreciate her!

l photos of our wonderful nuptials. They did reimburse us and my friends who had to sacrifice their experience to step up to take snapshots. 2 other photographers showed up but nothing will ever replace our missing memories.

photos. She worked well with my day of coordinator to ensure that picture were done in an efficient manner and in accordance with our timeline. We ended with plenty of time to spare before the ceremony started. Meg is very sweet and has a laid back personality, which made it easy to relax during photos and enjoy my wedding day. I was surprised by the number of candid shots she was able to grab that day, which made looking through all of the pictures really fun! I would definitely recommend her for iPod wedding day.

n more thorough. I would also suggest to spend the money to get a second photographer because I feel like we missed out on pictures we wanted because our photographer was overwhelmed. He stated the company did not pay for face to face meetings so we had to discuss my vision via phone/text and I don't think that sufficient . We got the essentials but some pics were ruined due to his inattentiveness. For example, we attempted to take a picture of the bride and flower girls' manicures and when I got the finished pic the flower girl's hand are cut off. Also there are no pics of groomsmen without these big cardboard boxes behind them, a true professional would pay attention to everything including the background.

ers I really wanted photos of, and she did not get one of them). There was not one photo of my cousin, and she never asked me who it was. I was so busy and distracted, I didn't think to point her out. Debra insisted that we hire a second photographer to get more photos, but they never left each other's side. We only had the reception- not the wedding, and when guests were arriving, I had to get the photographers to come out to the main area to take pictures, because I felt like that was a great opportunity to take them. They were “looking at the schedule”. There was no schedule- it was entirely the reception- and this is something they should have had memorized beforehand. At times during the evening I noticed them looking back through photos- that was not the time to have been doing that. They had plenty of time to do that after the event. I like a lot of the photos, but I wish I could go back and choose someone else to capture that night. I’m sad that there were none of my cousin because we are very close, and that’s why I listed her on the short list of people I wanted in a photo. I feel like a lot of good photo opportunities were missed, and it caused unnecessary stress that evening.

we had to choose another photographer. Though panicked and worried it was actually a blessing. We got Andrew P. who was just amazing to work with on our wedding day. Our pictures were delivered in the indicated time frame and there so many precious moments caught that we can't decide what to print. It was nice to have Photo & Video from Bellagala b/c our video guy Travis worked well with Andrew to coordinate we had all moments covered. Our DJ was assigned the week before the wedding date. We got to work with Theo who did a great job following our music choices and making it great party.

out having to change the price/package. We appreciated that they emailed us reminders as important dates and deadlines came to keep things moving, and the website was really helpful when it came to the important details. Overall a really great experience!

apher we have ever worked with, but I genuinely felt that she was a great person and very easy to work with. She did an impeccable job coordinating everything and everyone as well as sticking to the day of timeline. It was such a relief to have her organizing and executing per our agreed upon details so I didn't have to be. Her work in being concise, timely, and working with my husband's impatient personality (He absolutely hates taking photos) surpassed my expectations. You are making a mistake choosing anyone else.

talking and planning. She was easy to communicate with, share our thoughts with, and she gave us ideas and advice when we asked for it. Her photography was beautiful, and met and exceeded all our expectations!

d go cool off and ever had protein bars!! We also got our pictures back in three weeks and we LOVE them💕💕

when things got stressful for a few moments. She was very kind and I am so excited to see the photos!! I would recommend her to anyone! Thanks Sarah!!!

as she the most professional photographer I have ever worked with, but I genuinely felt that she was a great person and very easy to work with on top of that. Her work in being concise, timely, and working with my impatient personality (I HATE TAKING PHOTOS) surpassed my expectations. She was organized and wonderful at coordinating everyone and everything! You are making a mistake choosing anyone else.

ed to our wedding and she was totally into the idea! Nerds unite! It was an amazing day and she captured every moment of it!

ade sure to meet me at the venue during the wedding week and was able to show up early and set up on our wedding day. She and her assistant were able to get plenty of good shots throughout the day during the ceremony and reception. Thanks to them we have many photos to help us remember that wonderful day. Would recommend to Bellagala to our friends and family.

wedding, from finding the perfect picture, capturing our entire family, to not even realizing they were there (which is a great thing)! They were both amazing to work with, so professional, polite, and ready for anything. I'd highly recommend using these two for your wedding day!!

n it comes to getting our pictures taken. She gave great direction and I have no doubt the pictures will be lovely. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because a lot of the transactions take place via the website, and I kept having technical issues. I was told several times that whatever I did on the website "probably" worked, which made me nervous. But other than that, things went smoothly and I'd recommend them.

e angle, out if focus and the ones that weren't the colors were wrong. When I contacted them to fix it they oversaturated and made a mess. When I contacted again they said they would send me the raw photo so I could have someone else do the work correctly and I never got them. So one year later I have no wedding photos no memory of my special day and I am so sorry that I ever picked this company they are awful!

. We would totally recommend Meagan for any photography needs.

little longer free of charge. However when it came to the editing of our photos it was pretty terrible. At bellagala the photographers are the ones who edit their own photos. They have a whole post production team who does this for the photographer. So this team is in no way attached to your photos because they didn’t take them. When I say editing I don’t mean making our faces look better or thinning us out or whatever in that composite. I mean cropping random signs out of the photos or adjusting the shadowed lighting on faces. We tried to work with the post productions team. We emailed back and forth any times asking for adjustments but they stopped communicating with us. So we cropped the photos that needed it and we learned how to edit lighting ourselves so some of the photos we liked would look better. Kind of sad that they have good photographers and not a great team behind them.

and were able to laugh all day. Thank you Bellagala and team!
