If I had the option I would.
First impressions are everything. My wife and I got married September 23rd ,2023.
Understanding the type of method and character Tori uses is...
fair as weddings are time framed and the couple paid for that time rightfully so. But that is just 4-8 hours at best on one single day.
After countless emails back and forth between Tori and my wife of when we are getting our photo album , when are we getting our canvas , the spot in our living room as been sitting vacant for over a year.
Tori had expressed family matters on her end and offered a free maternity shoot to make up for the troubles. Although a thoughtful gesture, I was not goi to have my wedding and my families “free” paternity shoot further sink us into this rut. It is not October 14, 2024. 3 months from 2025.
My wife and I recently went through something no one single human should ever have to go through.
We had again reached out to Tori as we needed something postive in our life as we stil have yet to have our wedding album and canvas and then we met with the sounds of crickets.
I understand the professionalism and the “pit Bull” attitude Tori needs during the day she is getting paid to take pictures.
But that’s as far as she goes as an over paid photographer. And nothing more.
We would like to say how awesome of a day we had at our wedding. We loved every second of it and Torri and Chris Captured the most important day of our lives. Thank you so much for...
everything and we HIGHLY recommend you! Torri and Chris were very easy to work with and make sure we had everything we needed the day of our wedding!
With Love, The Woudenbergs
Torri was the photographer for our wedding, she was absolutely amazing! She was there through the whole process and was very patient. Our photos came out absolutely beautiful and s...
he captured all the great moments. Her team that she had with her was also great and very friendly. They really made my wedding day a lot of fun and made me feel beautiful.
There was a moment while getting ready where I put on my dress. Torri took a step back, looked me up and down, and got choked up. In that moment I felt like I was more than just a ...
client, like she was a friend I knew for a lifetime. Money can’t buy those genuine qualities. She made me feel SO beautiful and how she captured us, just blew me away.
She hustled and had our larger bridal party cooperate (which honestly is hard to do) to make sure we got the shots we needed just in time to beat the rain. She’s an absolute gem and I am obsessed with our photos.
Torri was fantastic to work with. I truly felt like I could be myself around her. She was great at coming up with creative ideas for photos and directed us so well (when we were tw...
o people who do not often take photos). We got our photos back very quickly and they came out great. Her second photographer was also incredibly kind and very willing to take photos with whomever we grabbed in the moment. Great range of posed and candid photos of everyone at our wedding!
Torri and her assistant went above and beyond to make our day seamless and beautiful. Torri is super easy to work with from the initial meeting to our big day. Very personable and ...
takes the time to get to know her clients, which translates into great pictures. She did our engagement pictures and wedding pictures and they came out amazing. Her style of photography is exactly what we were looking for, which is why we chose her. We didn't have to settle for her style of photography which shows how versatile she is in capturing your big day in the way you want to remember it. She also helped out with more than just the photography during our wedding; such as hemming our flower girl's dress, giving the bride pointers on walking down stairs in her dress, and really attending to every need of the bride during the wedding. She is all around great to work with and we highly recommend her for all of your photography needs.
I cannot say enough good things about Torri and Andrew. Not only did they take breathtaking photos, but they made sure we had a magical night at our wedding. They played interferen...
ce when guests tried to distract us, brought us snacks and drinks, made sure we tasted our wedding cake, and helped us sneak away when we needed a minute to ourselves. Things we didn't even know we needed, they did for us. If you haven't booked Black Raven Imagery for your wedding, you are really missing out. Do yourself a favor and call Torri today. You will not regret it.
Torri was the very first vendor I decided on and it was by far the easiest decision during the whole wedding planning process. The second you meet her, you feel like you've known h...
er for years. And for a lot of people that's who you want to spend a lot of time with on one of the most exciting days of your life. She truly enjoys what she does. We would be walking to another area to take pictures and you would hear "ooh! let's try over here real quick!". She makes sure everyone looks their best in pictures. If someone forgot to take something out of their pocket and it's noticeable, she'll remind them to empty pockets before snapping the shot. Our pictures came out absolutely beautiful and I couldn't be more thankful to have so many wonderful memories that we can look back at for years to come.
Torri and Rob were PERFECT. Tim and I married on October 24 and we truly could not be happier. I could not have asked for a better photographer on our most special and nerve wrecki...
ng day. Torri was the spit fire we all needed on this day! I come from a family of Italians who just talk and don't listen. She whipped everyone into shape and made sure we had all our photos done before the ceremony. She was so prepared and knew exactly where to go next. Rob was also amazing and kept everyone laughing. The entire bridal party cannot stop talking about them. We met her at a bridal show in Basking Ridge and we honestly could not be happier. The little amount of pictures she has shown me already have me ecstatic and I cannot wait to see the rest. Thank you Torri and Rob for absolutely everything.
Torri is wonderful!
We met her at a bridal show and hired her. We did our engagement shots with her a year ago which were tons of fun and came back beautiful!
Our large wedding wa...
s postponed until September but we had an small ceremony on our original date with our immediate family. Torri came and took beautiful, socially distanced shots. We are so happy we choose her and can’t wait to have her as our photographer in September as well!
There are not enough words for me to express my love for Torri. She has a creative mind, electric energy and a presence about her that controls the room and keeps the day running s...
moothly. Not only did I get a photographer but also a day-of wedding coordinator. Torri understood everything I asked for with my wedding images and went above and beyond to achieve them. She assisted me with wardrobe malfunctions, catering malfunctions and saved our wedding day from things that felt catastrophic, to mere bumps in the road.
Not only was Torri amazing but so was her assistant (dad), and my second photographer, and her partner, Robb. They are an absolute dream team. They come together and work as one unit while each expressing creative freedom and capturing something truly, truly beautiful .
I cannot recommend Black Raven Imagery enough for your wedding but also for you ladies doing boudoir photography for your hubby to be...and then said boudoir photography leading to your maternity shoots ;)
much love,
Madeline and shaka london
Tim and I married on October 5 2019. Torri honestly was a god send. I could not have asked for a better photographer on our most special and nerve wrecking day. She and her collea...
gues made everything so simple with my gang of misfits. She was so prepared and had such a calming yet fun effect on everyone. The images she captured are sure to stun. She was my first choice in photographer and I am 110% overly happy we choose to change our wedding date just to have her. Which means she is also a good luck charm, because our original date was rained out, but our wedding date we had was a gorgeous day. Thank you Torri for all the great memories. HUGS Tim & Isis Corris
Tori and Rob from Black Raven were outstanding. They were super easy to work with and so much fun to hangout with. They are incredibly knowledgeable regarding each detail of a wedd...
ing, and helped facilitate the entire day. They also made sure to capture each and every moment of the event, including individual photos of us with each important family member/friend. Black Raven was more than we ever could have asked for, and I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for their photographer.
We got married 7/20/19. Torri was amazing and easy to work with. She was helpful with everything on my wedding day and captured creative photos throughout your wedding day! The com...
munication throughout the entire process was easy and fast:)
We had our wedding on 9/23 and I can’t say enough good things about Torri and Dave. I could tell from my first meeting with Torri at a bridal show that she was my top choice. She a...
nswered all questions and concerns I had prior to the big day. She even had us fill out a worksheet so she could understand exactly what we were looking for. The day of they showed up on time at both locations. One thing about Torri is she cares about her bride and groom and will do anything and everything in her power to make sure the day goes perfectly. She was not only our photographer but she made sure that we were doing everything from drinking water to even helping me go to the bathroom in my dress. We just got the pictures back and they are all beautiful. Thank you so much for helping capture our day!
Torri came highly recommended by our DJ and the photos he shared with us were amazing. After speaking with Torri, we knew she was the one. Not only is Torri a great photographer bu...
t she has a great personality and kept us at ease throughout the entire wedding process as well as the big day. She even helped my maid of honor with the buttons on my dress and knew how to put on my veil so that it didn't go flying off! Most importantly, her photos really captured the true essence of the day and we couldn't be happier. Our DJ talked us into doing the dancing on the clouds and I was a little skeptical but the photos Torri took look amazing and truly make a great memory of that special moment. Torri was an intricate part of our Best Day Ever and are so grateful that we found her. So basically what I am trying to say is, if you are reading this your search is over. Pick up the phone and book her. You won't regret it.
I don’t even know where to begin. There are no words to express the photographer and person Torri is. She was an absolute pleasure to work and was more of a friend than a photograp...
her that day. She was there every step of the way and took some really amazing photos. Torri was so creative with her poses and while I was upset it was raining, it did allow her to take a breathtaking picture! Her father was the second shooter and he was so cute and helpful in every way. They made us laugh the whole time and were so attentive to every thing we needed. We had seen Torri at a bridal show 2 years before we got married, we were only there to browse. I had passed the booth and the photos caught my eye. When I got home I couldn’t stop thinking about them so I reached out to get some ideas about pricing. The minute We spoke to Torri we knew we were going to book her no matter the price. Thankfully her prices are very reasonable and very very worth it. We couldn’t have asked for a better or a better photographer to be there with her. If you’re looking for a photographer Torri is 100% the way to go !!
Where do I begin? If you want an amazing photographer that will keep you sane on your wedding day, control your family members, and give you flawless photos then Torri is your gir...
l. She made my wedding day truly a carefree experience so I could just focus on the occasion and celebrate it. She specializes in coordinating families that otherwise would not be on their best behavior. I am so thankful for Torri and Ron (her Dad) for capturing my wedding day. Please do yourself a favor and call Torri for a meeting. She also loves your pets so if you want to include them for engagement shoots she is all about it! Thanks again for making photography an enhancement of my wedding and not taking over. Also FYI she makes sure you get a chance to eat and never have an empty glass. :) Torri was professional and attentive every step of the way. She also sent me some images for thank you cards soon after my wedding. She is also very reasonably priced. I booked her after meeting her at lunch while I was on vacation and loving her vibes. She has great energy and can read the room, knowing exactly what she needs to do to get the best shot.
Torri was great she did our engagement pictures and wedding photos. She was easy and fun to work with and kept things moving all day. I highly recommend Black Raven Imagery!!
Torri was absolutely amazing! I really have no words other than her being totally awesome! She was so fun and had high energy all night! After the first look we were all hanging ou...
t before the ceremony, and she was so down to earth talking to all of us, it was like she was a part of the bridal party! We love Torri, and her work, and would recommend her in a heartbeat!
I cannot recommend Black Raven Imagery enough, seriously!! Torri did an amazing job and made us feel comfortable and relaxed through every aspect of our day. We got to take all the...
photos we requested and she even had some great ideas for other shots we would not have thought of. Our wedding was at the Barn at Perona Farms, and she definitely knew the best places and times to get photos there. Highly recommend!!!!
During our wedding vendor search for our photographer, my wife and I had come across Torri. We read a lot of great reviews, we liked what we saw from the website, and since she was...
also a recommended vendor from our venue, we decided to email her to set up a consultation. After the first meeting, we knew she was the photographer we wanted. Torri is very friendly and personable, professional and has a good sense of humor. As she told us at our meeting, you will be with your photographer at least 8 hours so you want to be someone you feel comfortable with and Torri was just that! From checking in with us well in advance of the wedding, to our final phone call to go over the timeline, everything was perfect. The weather did not really cooperate with us most of the wedding day, but Torri was very quick to adapt to different locations and photo locations. If you are looking for a photographer, definitely contact Torri because you will be glad you did.
Torri and her hand selected team (including her Dad) are awesome! They keep you laughing throughout the day and remind you about what's truly important about the day so you don't g...
et lost in stress. She gives her personal cellphone number that you can text any time day or night and she'll answer. I could not have asked for more and my husband and I think of her as a friend now :)
I first met Torri at a bridal show and we clicked right away, I knew I had to have her do my wedding. She was the first person I booked and she was there with me every step of the ...
way. It rained on my wedding day (outdoor ceremony problems), but she helped me not have a breakdown and we made the best of it and still got amazing shots. I will recommend her always and use her for any future events!
We used Torri for our wedding. Let me tell you she was outstanding! She was there every step of the way for my wedding. Torri would call out of the blue, I swear she sensed when I ...
was in wedding panic mode! She helped get our amazing DJ and all sorts of little things you dont even think about. Not only did she capture every special moment from our day, she was there for me anytime I needed something. She helped fix my dress when it broke, got me a drink when I had empty hands. You name it she did it! She is WAY more than a photographer - she is in it for the long haul and will easily become a life long friend!
Torri is more than just a photographer. She helped me with my dress, she calmed my anxiety when I didn’t think I was going to get through the day, she was a member of the family th...
at day. She is FANTASTIC!! Rob was her second shooter for the day and he was equally amazing, for a man who is 6 feet tall, you never knew he was there! The two of them together made my day even more special, if that is even possible. If any bride is looking for a photographer Torri is your girl!! She is worth EVERY penny and more!!!
OMG! Torri is the absolute best! From the minute we met her we knew she was the photographer for us. She is very confident and great at what she does. She brought Rob as a second...
shooter and he was awesome also. She and Rob are true professionals. Don't walk, but run to hire Torri for your wedding photographer. You won't be disappointed. We love her!
Definitely agree with the review below me! Torri deserves 10 stars. I'm serious about that. I thought I was just getting a photographer, but on my wedding day Torri was also making...
sure our hair was perfect, she fixed a bridesmaids dress that could have led to a disaster, and also found time to comfort my two dogs who were very nervous as the whole bridal party was getting ready at our house. I don't know any other photographer who would get on the floor with my two dogs to say hello to them, and also get the perfect picture. Torri was so professional, yet down to earth, and so fun at the same time! Not to mention her pictures are beautiful. She is also very open to ideas you have as well. Coming from two people who were so nervous about pictures, Torri made the whole process comfortable and painless. She also dealt with our crazy/rowdy bridal party like a pro! She was fabulous, we are so thankful to have worked with her!
IS IT POSSIBLE TO USE MORE THAN 5 STARS!! Torri and her staff were amazing. My photos are breathtaking. Hiring Torri was one of the best decisions I made. She is awesome.
Torri and staff were AMAZING on my wedding day!!! I can't say enough good things about her, she is great at what she does and kept everyone in line, which is exactly what I needed ...
on my wedding day! My family and friends were equally impressed by her too!
Torri was the most AMAZING photographer! She was my rock the day of my wedding. She just has an awesome personality and has been incredibly helpful throughout the wedding process. ...
Everybody at our wedding LOVED her. I can't believe how lucky we were to have her as our photographer. The photos she took were breathtaking and she captured so many perfect, beautiful moments! Trust us. Hire her, she does not disappoint.
I found Torri when she shot my best friend's wedding. Although she was booked for my wedding day, I was able to get her for our civil ceremony and the results were (as expected) in...
credible.
In addition, all of the family was raving about how great, friendly she was and how comfortable she made the whole experience.
It can get weird posing for photos for hours, especially if you are shy (like my friend is) but not with Torri. My friend and I have recommended her to every person we know and will continue continue using her for every big lifetime event in the future. When you are comfortable in your skin, the results are always amazing and we are lucky we found her.
