Photography and videography were our number one priority for our wedding, so we knew we wanted to invest in a team that would truly deliver, and Bowtie exceeded every expectation.
...
We are both very detail-oriented people and researched dozens of photographers and videographers, interviewing several before deciding. From the very first interaction, Bowtie stood out. We immediately felt a genuine connection, loved their work, and were honestly shocked by the value. We received significantly more coverage and deliverables than what other vendors offered, at a much better price point. Truly unmatched.
We met Zack for our engagement shoot about a year before our wedding, and it felt like taking photos with a close friend. He made us feel incredibly comfortable and asked how we preferred to be posed. When we said we wanted full direction, he delivered, offering thoughtful guidance on everything from head tilts to hand placement to make sure every shot looked its best.
For the wedding day, I was able to provide input on our shot list, and we didn’t miss a single photo. The entire team was friendly, professional, and calming throughout the day. Even our families and wedding party commented on how incredible the photographers were at keeping things on track while still being warm and approachable.
A special shoutout to Lisa, the studio manager. She is truly amazing. She always responded promptly and thoroughly and consistently went above and beyond to help bring our vision to life.
The turnaround time absolutely blew us away. We received sneak peeks within a week and our full gallery in under two weeks. We were expecting the typical 8-week timeline, so getting all of these stunning photos while we were still riding the high of the wedding was such a gift.
The multi-camera videography is something we truly did not realize the full value of until we saw the final product, and now we cannot imagine not having it. Being able to see different angles and reactions in real time, like my grandma’s face when I surprised her walking down the aisle or close-ups of both of us during key moments, made the video incredibly immersive and emotional. Compared to the single-camera recording we also received, the difference is night and day.
Weddings are expensive, and it often feels like everything is marked up just because it is a wedding, but Bowtie is the rare exception. The team, the photos, the videos, the experience, everything was a 12/10. I will shout our experience from the rooftops and recommend Bowtie to every couple trying to decide where to allocate their budget. If photography and videography matter to you, this is the team.

Choosing Bowtie Photography for our wedding was one of the best decisions we could have made. Steve and Nick were truly phenomenal from beginning to end.
Before the wedding, Steve...
took the time to do pre-wedding calls with me to ensure they understood every image that was important to us. That level of care meant everything. He has such a natural eye for detail and was amazing at guiding us through posing in a way that felt effortless and elegant. I am not someone who feels like a natural in front of a camera, but Steve made it feel comfortable and fun, and somehow made every photo look timeless.
On wedding day, they were everywhere in the best way possible. We never had to search for them. If we were about to take a quick selfie with a guest, Steve would appear and offer to take it on his camera instead. During the reception, when everyone wants a picture with the bride and groom, they made sure those moments were captured beautifully. It meant so much to not have to think about a single thing.
The detail shots, the getting-ready photos, the way my dress was styled and placed, every image was handled with intention and care. And receiving our sneak peeks the very next week was the icing on the cake. They are everything I could have hoped for. The lighting is stunning, the posing looks natural, and every photo feels elegant and emotional in the best way.
Steve and Nick gave us memories we’ll cherish forever. We truly cannot thank Bowtie Photography enough.

stunning, but the level of professionalism and kindness they showed us was astonishing. Weddings can be stressful with not only trying to make sure everything is on time, but also crazy family members, and lots of opinions. They helped us make our special day about us, consistently making sure we had what we needed and that everything was perfect. I’ve loved all of the photos we’ve gotten back so far, and cannot wait to see the rest. I am so grateful for their hard work and attention to detail as these will be photos we will look back on with our kids one day.

We were SO lucky to have found Bowtie. Our first call with Zack was the best first impression. Zack and the studio manager Lisa were very clear, professional and communicative. The...
engagement shoot offered provided the perfect chance to get to meet Zack before our wedding day, and it went seamlessly. We got married/had our engagement shoot in downtown St. Augustine, and it was clear that Zack knew the area, knew the perfect places for a great backdrop and lighting. We aren't big photos people but Zack made us feel comfortable from the beginning. The wedding day went by without an issue as well. We had video as well as photos, and Zack's assistants were incredible.
I cannot stress enough how many compliments we have gotten on our photos/videos and the way they were taken/edited, capturing the most perfect moments that we didn't ever want to forget. We HIGHLY recommend the videography package, we have watched the full video a couple times and the highlight videos genuinely 100 times by now. The photographers were also very to the point and organized for post ceremony photos so we were never gone from the party too long (genuinely 30-45 minutes all together for the family/couple photos).
You will not regret working with Bowtie!! Great people, quality work, and amazing value for the cost. Thank you so much for all your amazing work Zack, Lisa, and all :)

From the start of our wedding day, I felt rushed. The photographer did not stick to the timeline from the very start. They showed up 20 mins early to "get ahead", but still managed...
to not capture many of the images I had hoped. They shot maybe 3 pictures of hair and makeup and my bridesmaids had to run after them to get a few more. There were 2 taken with each bridesmaid, some being haphazard. Everything was made to feel very rushed from the start, but at one point we were told we were 30 mins ahead of schedule. With the fake rush, I did not get a chance for many bridal portraits, only a few at a very unflattering angle. I was told we would take more later in the day, but that never happened. There were supposed to be pictures of the groomsmen getting ready, but those never happened either. The bridal party pictures were rushed and there were not many photo options again. I emphasized I wanted candid and fun group pictures and that did not materialize. In the few group candid pictures, half of the bridal party is cut out. Prior to the wedding we had discussed where we wanted the first look to be, but come the day they did not listen and set up in the wrong location, I had to ask for the original location adding more time on. The location we were taking pictures was very overexposed and windy, not the photographers fault, but I wished he could have told us that so we could have moved locations or fixed our hair or something. More expected shots were missed in the ceremony - we had no pictures of the bridal party standing at the front with us, not pictures of my maid of honor fluffing my dress, and no shots of the full ceremony from above. I had sent the photographer a full list of my inspo and photo ideas, but it seems those were never looked at. Back to the lack of timeline, we missed cocktail hour because they wanted to knock out some of the pictures ahead of time, even though that was not on the timeline. I had to reiterate multiple times where I wanted pictures even though we discussed it prior and it was on the timeline shared with them. I had to go back to the office assistant the beg for more options and ended up buying the RAW images for $200 just at the hope there are more on there that I might like. I am just overall disappointed with the final gallery and wish I could go back and retake so many of the pictures, but I can't. It did not seem like Bow Tie Photo really listened to me or cared about my vision and our wedding was just another of their numerous weddings they had to get through.

I was worried about the gloomy Florida weather that day, but Zack assured us that we'd be fine - and we were, the engagement shots were BREATHTAKING. Now for wedding day, I could not have asked for a better team than Zack and his team. They are all the friendliest people, and make you feel so comfortable. Zack knows the best angles, how to fluff your wedding dress (SO QUICKLY), and the best poses. The team did a spectacular job capturing our most special day. The photos and video truly exceeded expectations. His team also works so quick to get you the BEST quality work. We are so glad to have these memories captured by Zack and his team. You cannot go wrong with this team for your big day!

I cannot recommend Zack and his team enough!!! I got a little carried away but can't say enough great things. Below is why
As happy and excited as I was on my wedding day (4/8/202...
3), I had a few moments of holding back tears when looking at the 90% chance of rain coming at the same time as our outside ceremony & reception. Zack and his team met us at the airbnb where myself, 10 bridesmaids, mom and MIL were getting ready. We had about 10 minutes between the rain and it was GO TIME! He made sure we got every picture I wanted & more, including individual shots. He was extremely efficient while making us all laugh the whole time.
Thanks to Florida weather, we were able to do the ceremony outside. He honored my wishes of not wanting to do a first look, (even though that would've been the practical move) and he managed to take ALL family and bridal party pictures outside, followed by an overcast windy photoshoot on the beach with just my husband and I before it started pouring. The pictures turned out better than I every could have imagined, and everyone had an absolute blast taking them.
I am absolutely blown away at how fast their turnaround time was for preview pics, full gallery, 30 second highlight, highlight video, directors cut, and ceremony & reception video. Even more blown away at how AMAZING it all turned out!! If you're thinking about adding any of the above add-ons..DO IT!
Finally- shout out to Lisa, their studio manager. She's been so amazing to work with every step of the way. SO helpful and quick to respond to my many questions.
Thank you BowTie Photo & Video team for the magic you've created.

Photo and video was the most important vendor for me personally. I looked through so many different websites to find the right fit and we knew we found the right team with Zack. ...
He had a great attitude when we said we wanted to book him nearly 2 years in advance and put us at ease very early on. When our engagement shoot was rained out he was very responsive about rescheduling. When we did have our engagement shoot we got along so great with him that we honestly almost lost track of time. When the big day came around we were laughing and joking everything just felt so natural. We expected maybe 10 photos from our sneak peek and we ended up with so many more! We can't wait to see our full album and our video. Lisa was very gracious dealing with my constant emails and making sure everything was all set for the day of.

Zack and his team are exceptional at what they do. Zack is direct and efficient, understanding the importance of following a schedule and capturing the most beautiful and authentic...
moments as well as portraits for someone typically a little awkward in photos. In addition, he was extremely flexible in creating the package I wanted. I cannot thank them enough for the most gorgeous photos and video I have ever seen.

Zach and his team were INCREDIBLE! I can't speak highly enough of the quality of pictures you will get when you book them. Zach was so good at making us comfortable and getting the...
photos. His little ques on where to look where so detailed we never really had to doubt what we needed to do for the photos. We did the photography package for our wedding with engagement photos. These photos will have a special place in our house for the rest of our lives!

dding day with us. Tyler seemed to be ready for any moment, and prepared any hiccup. He took away so much stress, and came to my rescue probably 100X. They were professional and INCREDIBLY talented. Tyler was born for this!! My husband and I, and all of our guests haven't stopped raving about them!

Florida, Zack came up to Pennsylvania to do our engagement photos and they were beautiful. Our wedding date was changed due to covid, and then 30 days out our VENUE changed due to covid. Zack and Tyler were so amazing and fun to work with that I am just thrilled with how everything turned out. The only regret I have is not using them for videography.

We booked Zack for our destination beach wedding in the St. Augustine area. We did our research.. we wanted a photographer that was from the area - understood tides, timing, lighti...
ng and the landscape. Zack knew all of that and more!
From our initial phone call with Zack, he immediately had suggestions for unique photo locations aside from just the beach, gave his honest opinion on a second photographer and was super helpful in putting together the day's timeline.
On our wedding day, he made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and gave great directions in how to pose making both portraits and candid photos look so flawless. I am so glad we chose Zack to capture our day and highly recommend if you're looking for a stress-free photographer that will only make your day easier!

ctures at. Zack sent us our edited pictures only a couple of days after we got married and they're absolutely stunning. Through the couple hours taking pictures, Zack made us feel very comfortable, and he was very professional and is obviously super talented. You can promptly tell he knew what he was doing. I can definitely recommend him and would choose him as our photographer any time again.

ortable and most importantly he made it fun! We decided that we had to get him as our wedding photographer. I mean look at his work, how can you not? Zack and Tyler were such a pleasure to work with on our wedding day – they kept the wedding party on schedule and made it super fun! Zack is super laid back and easy going, prepared, professional, and extremely talented. Prior to the wedding, Zack was very responsive and receptive to what I was looking for. He also provided great suggestions. Their creativity and expertise has provided us with a variety of beautiful photos that we will treasure forever. Our photos are seriously stunning! We were so excited when we got our wedding photos back. We were just blown away with all of the beautiful formally posed photos and candid moments that Zack and Tyler had captured. We can’t be happier with our decision and we truly cannot thank him enough for how special he made our day. We highly recommend Zack for any event or milestone that you want captured – his photos speak for themselves! THANK YOU Bow Tie Photo, for being the perfect choice for our wedding day! -The Jenista’s

Zack and his team were fantastic! Our pictures turned out beautifully. It was nice that he has several people on his team so they can take pictures/video in multiple places at once...
, for example while the bride/bridesmaids are getting ready and at the same time as the groom/groomsmen are getting ready. I would also highly recommend getting him to do a highlight video. There is something so special about reliving the day through video that just isn't captured by photos. Overall would highly recommend!!

nal, and extremely talented. My husband and I were really worried about having enough time to actually enjoy our wedding while also getting enough quality photos. Zack was able to get through all of our group shots and the pictures of him and I with time to spare for extras! Most importantly, our photos are STUNNING. Straight out of a bridal magazine! I will recommend them to everyone I know!
Thank you Bow Tie Photo!

ss. They were very skilled and professional but also very easy to get along with and made everything lots of fun. I really appreciated the attention to detail before filming of what to expect that day from where they would be positioned while I was walking down the aisle to planning ahead and asking for a list of photos I wanted to get with groups of family members for our formals. Their creative touch and expertise has provided us with a beautiful variety of photos and video footage that we will treasure for years to come. We will definitely be working with Bow Tie Photo again in the future for maternity shoots and family photos!
