Great for the value. We had photographers from 11:30am until the end of the wedding, per the agreement. There were some points in time when I felt like I hadn't seen either photographer for 30/40 minutes. Unfortunately I only have about five photos/portraits of myself (the bride) from the day of. I think I became overwhelmed and lacked the ability to articulate what I wanted after a certain point in time so some things I believe we previously discussed fell to the wayside. But I like the photos I do have.
Paul and Ashley were wonderful! Love all my wedding photos and they were all ready to view within a week of the wedding!!
My husband and I worked with Paul for both our engagement session and wedding. Knowing nothing about CIP, we decided to work with them due to the affordability of their wedding packages and ample portfolio photos. It was important to us that we found someone who could capture both the sappiness and the goofiness of our relationship, and Paul nailed it. Not only was he personable and entertaining, he also knew exactly what he was doing. He asked us the right questions prior to the big day and made sure we knew what to expect, and he slid very easily into the role of MC, which made the event run so much smoother. Not only that, but the turnaround time for photos was FAST, which was definitely a pleasant surprise! I have nothing but praise for Paul and the CIP team and am so thankful we got the pleasure of working with them.
WOW. WOW. WOW. I am at a loss for words.
We used Michelle and Madawn as our photographers for our destination wedding in Los Angeles, California. It was the best decision we could have made!
Paul, the owner, was so personable and friendly. He was always available by phone to answer our questions or concerns. Not to mention, CIP was so affordable compared to other photography quotes we received.
You spend almost your entire wedding day with your photographers-- and Michelle / Madawn were so fun, down to earth, and sweet. They captured so many little moments we missed in the whirlwind of our day and the photos we received back are absolutely breathtaking. They gave equal attention to the bride and groom, so we have so many photos of both sides of our family.
We are so thankful that we found CIP to capture these memories for us-- and we can't wait to share these photos with our children one day.
I was very happy with the services provided to me as soon as I booked Creative Interpretations. From my engagement photos to my wedding photos they are all beautiful. My photographers had been amazing and Paul was very good at response time and reaching out as soon as he needed a question answered.
Would highly recommend to anyone looking to book.
I can't begin to express how grateful we are for choosing creative interpretations as our photographers. Paul and Stephanie were absolutely phenomenal, they were personable and down to earth and so funny. They hit every angle possible and had us do poses with people we didn't even think about that we definitely would've looked back on and wish we had. They also are so quick about it so you're getting amazing photos but it also didn't take up too much time in the day!! They we're very professional and communicated multiple times throughout our wedding planning to make sure we were fully prepared for the big day and worked together with the DJ and videographer and collaborated amazingly. Highly highly recommend, they're nothing short of amazing. Thank you for making our day perfect.
Paul and Thomas were the best! Professional, got the job done and our wedding moments are encapsulated so beautifully! We have so many gorgeous photos that are the best memory of our best day ever!
Wic and Paul were excellent! Every photo came out amazing. Photos were delivered quickly and turned our perfect! They communicated well leading up to the wedding and were easy and simple to work with! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
I cannot say enough good about our experience with Creative Interpretations! Paul was very easy to talk to and communicate with, and our photographer for the day, Wic Woodford, was incredibly helpful, professional, and personable. We are not picture people (posing isn't our strongsuit), but wanted to have portraits and candid shots. Wic provided all this with ease and we laughed along the way. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone who needs wedding photos.
Nichole was our photographer. She listened to our needs and then delivered a very nice product. She spent some of her own time getting familiar with our location and venue which we really appreciated. She had really fun and creative ideas for capturing our special moments throughout the day and was able to get many spontaneous shots of all our special people. We highly recommend Nichole. She is very skilled, creative and talented!
Creative Interpretations was FANTASTIC. We had two of their photographers for our big day -- Paul (the owner) and Michelle. Each had different photography styles, so we really got a lot of great varieties of photographs in terms of style and creativeness (exactly what we wanted). I would highly recommend them to anyone for a wedding or otherwise.
Paul and Ashley were the photographers for our wedding day and we are beyond happy we choose them! Not only was Paul extremely open with communication but both Paul and Ashley were so kind and nice to work with. They got so many shots and were always asking if there was anything we wanted that wasn’t done yet. When the wedding came to an end they hung out and took a ton a fun picture with the bridal party. They both made getting all of the photos such a fun experience. I would 100% recommend booking with creative interpretation they were wonderful!
We chose Creative Interpretations Photography to be our wedding photographer/videographer and could not have made a better decision. From the moment we booked our team of Madawn, Ashley and Paul I knew we made the right choice. Paul is very easy to communicate with and quick to respond to any inquiry which is something I value in a wedding vendor. The photographers were on time and full of ideas for creative shots that we would probably never have gotten if we didn’t choose CIP. I made a list of shots/people I wanted to have photos with and I was able to get everyone of them. We received our full wedding album before the promised date of 45 days after the event and are very pleased with how our photos turned out. I highly recommend CIP for all your wedding photo/video needs.
We had Ryan as our photographer for our post-elopement party. Everything went well, and we were very happy with the professionalism and laid back atmosphere Ryan provided.
Paul and Kim were excellent!! They are both very personable people and they know exactly what they are doing! They knew what to take pictures of and just the experience of being photographers was the best! We had the best time meeting them and having them shoot our wedding! I would recommend them and CIP to everyone!
We were so grateful to have Creative Interpretations be a part of our wedding day. In the lead up to the event, Paul was highly responsive to all of our questions and flexible with all of our requests. On the day of the event, Paul and his colleague (Ashley) did a great job of helping to capture all of the shots we had wanted. They had ideas for many other fun ideas as well. We can't wait to see the final prints!
We loved working with Paul at CI. He responded fast, was flexible with our window to decide and split our days. Such great professionalism and loved our images! We highly recommend!
Paul and Stephanie were such amazing photographers for our wedding!! Their communication and personalization were great and I fully trusted their ability to capture every moment of the day. Their prices and turn around time we’re outstanding! If you’re searching for great photography, choose CIP!
Paul and his team were wonderful to work with. Very responsive and made everything run smoothly for our big day. Wic and Stephanie both worked well together, capturing our day and making it painless and stress free! Highly recommend these talented photographers!
Wic and Shannon, provided through Creative Interpretations Photography, took some fantastically stunning photo's of our big day. In the lead up to our wedding, we had already spoken with our photography team about how we would like our day to be captured. They were subtle and professional in their skills, and as someone who's had photography training myself, their ability to blend in with their surroundings and capture organic moments of the guests and ourselves was astonishing.
Absolutely great experience with Paul and his team. He is so responsive and quick with suggestions that made the day run smoother.
Jesse and Ashley made a the day pain free and worked really quickly in questionable weather to get our outdoor photo requests accomplished.
Huge thanks to everyone!
From the first moment we met at the bridal show to the last phone call, Paul and the CIP team were a delight to work with! They were so caring, responsive, and overall helped to capture our special day perfectly. I appreciated the frequent communication along the way and the special sneak peak just a few days later. Highly recommend CIP for your special day! -Carley and Austin
We had Tom with Creative Interpretations photography as our wedding photographer this last October of 2022 and he was amazing. He was on time, very knowledgeable and workable. We personally felt like with multiple locations and photos we wanted it would be too much for anyone to handle but they KILLED it. Tom was responsive, receptive and gave us so many memorable photos we could t ask for more. It felt so real and raw. The fact he had a drone and we didn’t even know made it even more over the top. We personally think that this is the way to go with so many over priced basic photographers out there. Tom captured true moments that we will be able to have and hold forever.
Working with Paul, Shannon, and Zack was great. Response times were pretty quick, and the pricing was reasonable. Shannon and Zack were assigned to my wedding, and while I did not have much interaction with Zack, Shannon was awesome. She was creative and enthusiastic about the different photographs to take. I was contacted the day after my wedding by Paul to let me know about a timeline for when the photographs would be ready before I even had to ask. Creative Interpretations had done my sister’s wedding, and after handling mine, I recommend them to anyone who is looking for a good team for a good price.
Paul, Jessie, and Kylee were all great to work with! Paul was very responsive to my questions, and on my wedding day, Jessie and Kylee were great. My wedding was in September and I have all of my pictures back already.
Creative Interpretations was AMAZING!!! They were so great to work with and so flexible!! 10/10 would recommend them to anyone and everyone!
My husband and I chose Creative Interpretations Photography as a recommendation from my best friend and matron of honor! Well that recommendation was the best I had. Shannon was great and detailed orienated. She was timely, patient and the few pictures she showed me on the camera looked great. Can't wait to see the final product in couple of weeks. I would definitely recommend CIP to anyone that wants great pictures and a great photographer.
My husband and I used Shannon as our photographer for our boudoir session along with our wedding. We’ll get our wedding photos by the end of the month, it just happened this past weekend. However, our boudoir session turned out beautiful! 10/10 would recommend!
Highly recommend!! CIP is a local, small business that will not disappoint! Paul, the owner, is so easy to talk to and gets back to you very quickly. I love that we had so many options when picking the photo package that worked for our vision and budget for our day, along with picking the photographers based on their portfolios of work! CIP captured our engagement photos and wedding photos, along with connecting us to a videographer. Within 4-5 weeks after our wedding date, we have more than 3,000 photos available digitally!
My husband and I used Creative Interpretations Photography for our wedding in June. We had Michelle and Jonathan as our photographers. They were PHENOMENAL. Everyone in the wedding party and everyone attending the wedding commented on how kind, fun, and talented these two are! Our pictures are absolutely stunning!! Paul was so cool and great to work with as well. He helped me along the way with any questions I had and was very responsive. About a week before the wedding, Michelle called and we went over the timeline for the day. She asked for names of family members and anyone we would want special pictures with. Michelle and Jonathan made sure that the day smoothly, according to schedule, and we got all the shots we wanted. We will treasure these pictures for a lifetime to come. I would book them again in a heartbeat and recommend Creative Interpretations Photography to everyone.
We worked with Paul and he was amazing. He had great ideas for poses and he was literally all over our party. Easy to work with and our guests told us how great he was when getting photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.
We just got married yesterday and Paul made our day so special!!! We will definitely be raving about him forever!
Working with Paul was absolutely amazing! He was flexible, very responsive and provided such a fun energy to our wedding. He and Nicole did a phenomenal job on our wedding photos. I could not be happier with the quantity and quality of our photos!
Paul did an amazing job at capturing our special day. He is great at connecting with people and very professional!!! He is super flexible and he was very responsive throughout the process! The turnaround was extremely fast and I couldn’t be more happy with the output!!!! No need to look anywhere else, he is absolutely the best!
Working with Paul, the Owner of Creative Interpretations Photography, was like working with a friend. He wassuper communicative, responsible, cheerful, proactive, and I enjoyed working with him. His diverse team of photographers are full of potential and we're very professional. The photographers were punctual and dispite the dificult weather and unprecedented wedding situations, his team showed up and photographed our wedding and reception the entire day. This is a committed team and a great photography company that cares about each unique event and customer - so I 100% Recommend them to anyone for any event, especially a wedding day.
I loved using creative interpretations as my wedding photographer. They’re so genuine and fun. We used them as engagement photos and wedding and I’ve loved everything I received from them! Highly recommend these photographers
We hired Creative Interpretations to photograph our wedding in October 2021 selecting “premier” photographer’s. We had high hopes after seeing their work but we were left with a very disappointing experience all around. On our wedding day they were extremely unprofessional and rushed every photo. Even our guests mentioned numerous times how rude our photographers were. We were told we would receive our wedding photos 2 weeks after our wedding but it ended up being 2 months with us having to message them multiple times asking for them to only receive rude responses and excuses. Paul never delivered on the $200 credit he promise us for our photos being so late. Once we received our photos and went through them, my husband and I were even more disappointed. We trusted this company to capture our day But we are left with blurry, careless, crooked and rushed photos! I spent weeks messaging Paul with how disappointed we are and asking for a refund multiple time to just be ignored. There was no accountability taken for the lack of delivery on photos, how rushed the photos were and editing. I DO NOT recommend this company!!
For our wedding in October 2021 in Mount Joy, my husband and I wanted to find a photographer that would allow us to get both engagement photos and wedding photos at a reasonable price. Creative Interpretations fit the ticket! Our photographers were Shannon and Nichole, and they did an outstanding job! Shannon captured our engagement photos on Halloween at Nixon Park in York, and was so kind and creative when working with us (and the pumpkins I carved to include in the shoot). Shannon and Nichole did a great job capturing all of the moments we wanted on our wedding day, while also giving us time to enjoy the evening.
Our only issue was with the delivery of our wedding photos. Our contract stated that we would have all of our photos delivered via a website link that we could then download for ourselves 45 days after our wedding day. When that day arrived, Paul sent a link to only some of our photos and called it a “sneak peek” while he continued to add more over the next couple weeks. We tried to contact Paul and find out when all of our pictures would be available, and he continued to push back the day and not give us a date. Finally we received all of our photos at the end of December, but Paul never delivered on the $200 credit he was going to give us for our pictures being available an entire month late. Moreover, the only editing we could see was a few pictures in black and white, and he provided over 2000 pictures to us. I spent several days and hours at a time sifting through these which were delivered in no particular order, narrowing them down to the best 800. We are 100% satisfied with Shannon and Nichole’s work, but we were not pleased with Paul’s disregard for our contract and apparent lack of editing.
The pictures turned out great! Sometimes posing for pictures can be awkward. However, our photographer Paul, was very personable. He made everyone feel comfortable and had some great ideas for photos. Our second photographer got ill and couldn't make it. We got married on Christmas Eve so it was hard to find a replacement. Creative Interpretations was very flexible and allowed us to have the whole day for photos to make it up to us. The pictures were uploaded very quickly and they are easy to access. I would recommend them to anyone.
Paul and MaDawn were our photographers from Creative Interpretations Photography and we couldn't be happier that they were! They captured all of the wonderful memories of our day and were true professionals from booking, to our engagement session with Madan to our wedding day. And even though they've been super busy with weddings these last few months, we were able to get our photos back much quicker than I thought they would've and we're so appreciative that they did! We highly recommend using them for whatever your event may be, big or small!
My wedding was this past Saturday and working with Michelle and Paul was a blast! They were so professional and made me feel at ease they would cover every picture and deliver- and they did!! Highly recommend!!
We loved working with our photographer Kim! She helped make things easy and organized for photos. We love our pictures that were taken of our day!
I can't say enough good things about Creative Interpretations. Paul was so easy to work with throughout the process leading up to the wedding. He was very professional, easy to get a hold of, and stayed in communication with me. We had Jessie and Natalie as our photographers and were thrilled with them. They made us feel comfortable and were so great through the whole wedding. Jessie and Natalie did such an amazing job. They were focused on the best times to get shots of us while still capturing the guests and venue. They worked through the chilly, rainy day to make sure they got the perfect shots. I could not be happier with Jessie and Natalie capturing our day. I am beyond happy I picked CIP to shoot my special day!
CIP is an absolute amazing company to have and work with!!! We hired them for our wedding and they were ontop of every detail along the way. Paul & Michelle were our photographers, & we couldn't of had a better team to capture our day! Trust me when I say, you want this company for any special occasion!!!
Just married on 9.4.21! Paul and Michelle were awesome to work with. I am so impressed with all of the shots they got to capture our perfect day. We are forever thankful for these memories!
Our Creative Interpretations Team consisting of Paul and Kylie made our experience of taking wedding photos magical! They were so patient with us and not only took our ideas of what we wanted but tried their own ideas as well. Even with having to travel to Ocean City, MD, they did not get upset when we ran slightly behind schedule and stayed with us until we got every shot we wanted. We are so thankful for them for making the trip out to just shoot our wedding photos after our attempt at a full ceremony fell through. I also want to thank them for working with us during COVID by still shooting our small ceremony last year and still coming out again for the second time with full plans to shoot our large ceremony. We look forward to using them for our photography needs in the future and fully recommend them to everyone!
Our team of Shannon and Zach were awesome! I would highly recommend them to everything planning a wedding. I loved that you got 2 photographer's for your big day and not just one. I can't wait to see the pictures!
Paul and Shannon killed it! We had so much fun with this duo taking our pictures! They were fast but detailed and made sure we had fun doing it! We highly recommend CIP for your photography needs! They are so easy to work with and made the crazy time of covid reschedules and venue changes a breeze! The moments they captured we will remember for ever!
I'm so happy I had Paul & Megan to capture our special day! They did such a wonderful job. Definitely would recommend Creative Interpretations for pictures you will LOVE!!!
Paul and Natalie were our photographers from Creative Interpretations photography and they were absolutely wonderful! They were with us the entire day and captured so many special moments. Our wedding was May 14, 2021 at Bohemia Overlook in Maryland. The turn around time for getting our photos back was amazing! Within one week we had a sneak peak and within two weeks our photos were complete. We are so thankful to have these amazing photographs to look back on and remember our special day. Paul was super easy and laid back to work with throughout the entire planning process and I highly recommend booking Creative Interpretations Photography for your big day!
CIP was one of the best decision we made when planning our wedding! Our team was Kelly and Michelle and we were over the moon with how well they captured our wedding ceremony and reception. From early in the morning they were able to meet us at the church and take our getting ready photos while joking around and letting me know that I was not late I was right on time as the bride is supposed to be (no mater what the clock said) HaHa! Kelly jumped back and forth between the bridal suite, the groom room, and where the guests were gathering to get some great in the moments shots and embraces between family members. Michelle was in the bridal suite making sure that some specific shots I wanted of my dress, rings, rosary, flowers all got taken while I was getting ready (all while getting those photos too!)
They were very respectful of the fact that the ceremony was in a Catholic Church and okayed everything with the priest on where they were allowed to shoot from during the ceremony. One aspect of this company that I loved was that I could look through each photographers portfolio and pick the ones that best matched our style. Being a start up photographer myself I knew that there were certain shots I wanted of our guests and different poses that myself and my groom wanted and I knew they might be hard to achieve. We loved the photos that a captured people in the moment and really showed people having a good time, especially dancing photos! Even with some of our guests not being the most happy or excited, Michelle and Kelly were able coax them into a smile (especially some of the infants that were there). It was about 2 1/2 weeks till we got all of our photos back (we did get a few sneak peek ones earlier which was an awesome surprise) and it just allowed up to relive our day once more! With 3,177 photos we were able to get at least one of everyone one of our guests smiling and having a good time. If I had to go back, I would still choose Michelle and Kelly from Creative Interpretations Photography to capture all the moments from our wedding day!
Working with Creative Interpretations was an absolute pleasure! We were able to pick our photographers based on their work portfolios and their styles, which I appreciated. Our wedding was postponed due to COVID and Paul was very understanding in the rescheduling process. Due to other COVID issues out of everyone’s control, the photographers we picked weren’t the ones that shot our wedding, but Paul was more than accommodating with making sure we had photographers and prompt with notifying us whenever there was a change. Our photographers worked so well with our videographer which made everything go so smoothly. And our images were available very soon after the wedding, it was so nice to be able to relive the day with family again. Would highly recommend!
Paul and Shannon made the wedding photo process a breeze (and also fun). I would recommend them to anyone who needs wedding photos done.
We spent about 3 months searching for vendors for our 2020 wedding in 2018/2019. Paul found us at about 3 events. We spoke about our date and they we one of the few at the time working weekday wedding. In 2020 Covid hit just 3 months before our date, we had to change our date. We switch first shooters a couple of times but ended with Paul and MaDawn. June 16 was Paul's birthday and he still came to work and shoot our wedding. We had certain photos we wanted taken and MaDawn already had them done when we had asked! I can't wait to see our photos. We had a very small wedding as many still were concerned with Covid. They got photos of everyone with us which we all extremely appreciated. This was our 3rd time working with Paul and recommend CIP to everyone.
So Professional! So friendly! Just an absolute joy to work with! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer for ANYTHING! Michelle and MaDawn were so much fun to work with and captured our day beautifully! We have so many gorgeous photos and they felt like family! I will look for an excuse to hire them again!
Are photographers where just so great. They captured moment I didn't even know they captured!! The pictures are just beautiful and we couldn't be any happier with them!!! 😊
Create Interpretations was great from the get go. Super prompt and made setting everything up very easy. Our photographers Emily snd Shannon were absolutely wonderful on our big day. They were both so patient and kind and just added to all the fun.
I initially found Creative Interpretations Photography on the knot. Paul and Kerri were the best photographers I could ask for.
They were so patient and knew how to capture the best photos. I would and will continue to recommend them to anyone.
Paul and Madawn were our photographers for our wedding in 4.3.21. They were both so professional and easy to work with! They captured every type of photo we wanted and also gave us some ideas! They were very good at directing everyone on where we needed to be. They arrived earlier then expected to capture every moment and also stayed to almost the end of our party. I can’t wait to get our pictures!!
Creative Interpretations Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding! They were affordable with a package that includes 2 photographers for the entire day of your event. We worked with Thomas Wessel & MaDawn Hostetter and they were amazing! We were very impressed with our photos and they not only captured all of the important moments, but also many candid shots throughout the night. In addition, they captured unique shots and different angles that added variety to our gallery. They were very easy to work with, convenient to contact, and flexible. We received our photos in a very timely manner and are beyond delighted that we chose them as our photographer. You will not be disappointed if you book them for your wedding or other important event!
We are so thankful for creative interpretations! Due to Covid-19 we had to make some big changes to our wedding event about three months before the event. Both photographers and the company owner Paul were so helpful with all the changes we had to make. On our wedding day, both photographer, Amanda and Thomas, were amazing at wrangling the bridal party and guests and ensuring we got every shot we asked for. They were amazing and while the rest of the day wasn't what we had originally hoped for, we know our photographs will be amazing and an incredible way to remember our special day. I would definitely recommend Creative Interpretations and we will definitely be working with them in the future when Covid-19 is under control and we can throw the wedding we originally intended.
I cannot say enough good things about Creative Interpretations from pricing to customer service and the quality of the images that they captured. We chose Nichole and Kim to capture our day and couldn't have been happier with the outcome. They were professional and friendly while photographing the perfect mix of still and candid photos. I loved that they had so many creative ideas because after planning our wedding, I was done making decisions! Kim suggested that we play adult musical chairs and they captured it all - so fun! Our wedding day was perfect and magical and thanks to CIP, we can remember it forever.
It is hard for me to put into words how amazing paul is. I hired creative interpretations before corona virus hit and ended up changing my wedding from PA to key west. When i told paul i needed to cancel he offered to come down to key west with us and i am so happy he did!
He was always extremely responsive through the planning process and did everything he could to reassure me of any worries i had.
On the wedding day, he was amazing at taking control and ensuring we got the shots we needed. His personality added to our day in the best way possible! He was so creative with the shots he took
We received our pictures 3 days after the wedding and they absolutely blew me away! They are so much more than i could have expected. I dont think there is one bad shot
It would be a disservice to your wedding if you hire anyone else. There is no better than them!
We would highly recommend Creative Interpretations Photography. Photographers Michelle Smith and Paul Joseph Lorio did a fantastic job at our wedding. They made taking our wedding photos so much fun! We had a blast! They came up with so many cool fun photo ideas.They did a fantastic job capturing our day. It was such an amazing day for us and we are so happy we chose these photographers. We were so happy with pictures. It looks like a Vogue magazine photo shoot or something. WOW! Also, So many fun photos and memories to laugh about. A Wonderful job guy! Thank you!
Paul and Michelle were our amazing photographers for the day and we couldn’t have been more pleased with our experience with creative interpretations the whole time. We had scheduled our wedding in 2018 for 2020 and of course Covid hit. Paul and Michelle were easy to get ahold of whenever I needed and were flexible when our venue changed two weeks before the wedding. The day of the wedding they were both so fun to work with and helped keep the day on track. I am so pleased with all of our pictures, they truly highlight all of my favorite moments of the day. I would 100% recommend them to anyone who is looking.
Amazing company to work with! Paul was on top of things and very professional throughout the process. Michelle and Ryan were our photographers and did a great job of capturing our day and keeping everyone in line! Jill our videographer was also amazing and gave us a perfect video to remember our day! Would highly recommend them all
Creative Interpretations Photography were truly amazing!! Words can’t express how thankful and grateful we are for them. We used them for photographer and videography. Our photographers Shannon and Kim as well as our videographer Francesca exceeded all of our expectations. They captured every single moment throughout our entire wedding. They were navigating through our guests like ghosts. We barely saw them but they captured tons of pictures and videos (ie. expressions, emotions. sentimental moments, etc.) They knew how to pose us and used everything onsite to create better images/videos. Because of them we have so many memories!! They’re affordable, punctual, attentive, and respectful. The owner Paul was patient and was always available to answer our questions. We will certainly use them again in the future!! I highly recommend Creative Interpretations Photography for all of your events!
Paul and MaDawn were amazing!! Very fun and professional. Communication was great throughout the year leading up to the wedding and on the day of. The pictures turned out beautifully and we got them pretty quickly (2 weeks after the wedding). Would definitely recommend!!
We definitely made the right choice by choosing Creative Interpretations. My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Paul and MaDawn and they were absolutely fantastic!! They were with us from early in the morning to the very end of the reception. We had a large and rowdy bridal party and they did a great job handling them to capture amazing photos :) They both made sure everything ran smoothly and efficiently while having fun with us at the same time. Paul was great with communication from the initial time I booked with him. I would absolutely recommend Creative Interpretations and we will definitely be working with them in the future to capture other special moments in our lives.
Paul at creative interpretations was so nice and helpful! I had to change my date a few times and he was so helpful every time! Michelle and MaDawn were my photographers and both of them are very sweet and did an amazing job! They really made sure they got every detail and I cannot wait to see all the photos!! Highly recommend creative interpretations!
CIP has a great team of photographers, and we got to work with 3 of them! Paul joined us in West Chester for our engagement pictures, which turned out great! On our wedding day, we had Michelle and Phoebe! Talk about a dynamic duo! The two were snapping pictures since the moment they arrived to the moment they left. They asked us questions to learn about us and ran with the information to personalize our photos! Our guests commented how great the two were, especially when organizing our 30+ family members for pictures. Thank you Michelle, Phoebe, and Paul!
Paul and Nicole went above and beyond to capture our wedding day! I highly recommended! They both kept us laughing throughout each step of the process!
We definitely made the right choice going with Creative Interpretations! My husband and I were nervous in picking vendors from afar - we got married in PA and live in NJ, but Creative Interpretations was so highly reviewed, had profiles for their different photographers online, and offered a great value for their services, so we were sold.
Paul and Madawn were our wedding photographers. They were the best! The morning of the wedding, it began to snow, and it didn't stop until the night was over. Nonetheless, the two of them made it so much fun and the pictures came out BEAUTIFUL! The entire wedding party (22 of us, which didn't phase the team) was freezing cold each time we went outside, but you'd never know it from all of the gorgeous shots the team was able to capture.
Paul and Madawn are also very skilled at keeping things on track, and knowing the order of events and making the transitions really seamless. I was honestly surprised at how quickly we got through family shots after the ceremony! Paul was really flexible and ended up staying through the end of the reception so that we could get some sparkler exit shots.
Communication from Creative Interpretations is great, from Day 1 of booking all the way through post-wedding follow-ups. Downloading images has been super easy, as well. Sad it's all over - very happy with them!
I started looking for photographers really early on, before a date was picked or venue confirmed. I was immediately impressed with Creative Interpretations because, despite weeks passing since our last communication, Paul reached out to let me know that wedding shows were happening and photographers (not just CIP) would start booking quickly. I really appreciated this courtesy and knew CIP was it! This remained the standard during the whole process. Paul was always quick to reply and provide assistance when needed prior to the wedding. On the day of the wedding, our photographers were Paul and Thomas and we could not have been more pleased with our decision. They were fun, engaging, so easy to work with, and produced tons of amazing photos that I look at just about every day. They were a well-oiled machine and were insanely efficient, which made for a very stress-free experience. To top it off, we received over 1,100 photos back within a month of the wedding which was just absolutely amazing. I wish I could have more opportunities to work with them, and CIP will DEFINITELY be my go-to when recommending a wedding photographer to friends and family in the future!
Worked with Paul and Tom, quick and efficient and very professional. We even got to enjoy some of cocktail hour. They worked for us and with us.
To say my new husband and I are awkward under stress would be an understatement. While we are generally socially-okay people, put us in the spotlight and we forget how to look like humans. How do people stand normally? What do we do with our hands?
So while we wanted nice wedding photos, having to figure out how to pose and where to look and be conscious of that happening all day was something we were a little nervous about. Turns out we didn't have anything to worry about at all.
When we first met Paul at our engagement shoot with him and Jackie, he mentioned that the biggest thing he looks for in his staff is personality, and it shows. We had Amanda as our primary photographer and Jonathan as secondary, and they were both amazing. Amanda would gently poke fun at us when we forgot how to tilt our heads to kiss for a picture, or when I kept looking at myself in the mirror instead of at my bridal party (sorry guys), and would just make sure we were always laughing and relaxed. Jonathan somehow wrangled our rowdy groomsmen into some pictures of their own and was a fun, calm presence in a crazy day. They both felt more like friends than people we'd hired, and by the end of the night when all the pictures were taken and things were wrapping up, Amanda even joined us jumping around on the dance floor to some Blink 182.
While we haven't seen the pictures just yet, I know they're going to be amazing. They made sure we got all of the pictures we wanted with different combinations of family members, got there early to scout out some great locations at the venue (even though they'd never been there before), and were able to direct us when we forgot how to act like people in front of the camera. Paul has already gotten in touch with us to let us know the pictures will be up at the beginning of January, so the turn-around time is amazing as well.
Working with Creative Interpretations was so great from start to finish and I can't recommend them enough.
My partner and I went into our wedding planning originally not planning to hire professional photographers -- we had a pretty strict budget with very little wiggle room, but while perusing vendors, I saw the incredibly reasonable pricing offered by Creative Interpretations and decided to take the chance. We absolutely did not regret our choice to spring for contracting CIP for our wedding photography!
We worked directly with Paul and Madawn for our photos the day of, and they communicated with us very concisely the week and days beforehand. They arrived earlier than we expected and stayed later than they really needed to, honestly, and they really blew us away with how friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and patient they were through the entire day! My spouse and I are fairly non-traditional people, so we likely had some odd requests or preferences to avoid the usual cheesy wedding poses, and they rolled with what we wanted without question or judgment. This is also our first rodeo with getting married, so there were a number of small things we hadn't anticipated or thought about, but they guided is through everything expertly! It was almost like they knew exactly what we wanted before we even needed to express it to them. Not to mention, once all was said and done, we received our pictures within days of the event and they looked utterly stunning!! I am so truly ecstatic to have worked with Creative Interpretations Photography and 100% satisfied with my experience, I would strongly, enthusiastically recommend them to anyone and everyone seeking extremely professional, talented photographers for their special occasions! Hire these folks, y'all!
We were married on 10.20.2019 at Allenberry Resort in Boiling Springs, PA and we used Creative Interpretations Photography for the pictures. We were able to choose our two photographers, Michelle and Kim, who ended up blending very well with our group. Michelle was the main photographer and she was able to use the whole venue to capture all the beauty of Allenberry and the wedding. She was also very easy to work with when it came to posing photos or getting candid shots. I am very excited to see the finished product just based off of the couple photos she was able to show my husband and I that day.
After searching long and hard for a photographer. I fell in love with Michelle’s work. Thankfully she was available for our date. The price is so good that it makes you wonder if it’s all to good to be true. Well let me just say that without a doubt my experience with Michelle and Mellissa was everything we had hoped for and more. Michelle was amazing from our first phone call. Not only is she amazing with a camera her personality makes taking photos enjoyable. We are not picture people at all but I never felt like I was posing it was just natural with her help. We had some ideas for some non traditional shots that she went out of her way to make a reality. Melissa was the perfect second shooter and compliment to Michelle. So good I wouldn’t even know she was around at times but every time I looked up she was in some crazy position taking shots from all kinds of different angles. We can’t wait for Paul to put his finishing touches on our pictures that we know are going to be breathtaking.
We had 2 photographers, Nichole and Jon, and both were an absolute pleasure to work with. When I was worried about time they calmed me down and never rushed me. They made sure to capture all of the moments I asked for and they just had very professional attitudes. would highly recommend both of them!
I worked with Michelle and Wic for the big day and it was AMAZING. They were so willing to get any shots we wanted and showed us some of what they got so far. The pics look great!!! I can't wait to see the full album. I highly recommend working with this company!
I had the pleasure of working with Aimee and Tom as my photographers and Jill as my videographer. All three were on time, which is EXTREMELY important to me. They were personal and patient. We had a lot of time after the ceremony to get a ton of pictures of my new husband and I. They were so creative and they put their own spin on the photos. I would recommend CIP to everyone. Paul was an absolute joy to work with and communication was a breeze!
CIP photographed our wedding last year on 10/06/2018, the day they shot the most weddings in 2018! We loved our photography team, Kelly and Shannon! Our whole family was so appreciative of the time they took with us even when we were running all over the place with time!! I wish we could have done more on our end to possibly make their experience with us easier but I am so gracious for their flexibility. I have every photo every shot to view for the rest of my life and couldn't thank this team enough for making the memories I have of my wedding day so clear! Can't wait to share them with the family we are growing! Please book! You won't be disappointed!
Paul and Creative Interpretations
Our Wedding was a little last minute but Paul and Jackie went above and beyond and helped with directing people and getting them where they needed to be. It definitely would not have been the success it was with out them. We got some wonderful shots and the price was good!
We used Creative Interpretations for our June 28th wedding and had Shannon Ergott and Josh Goodman as our photographers. Since Shannon was our primary photographer, I had contact with her prior to the wedding where we discussed our timeline and shots that we were interested in getting. She was extremely helpful and was very clear that she was working for us and wanted to do whatever we wanted on our day.
Shannon and Josh both did an amazing job the day of our wedding! Both arrived early and got right to work when they got to the venue. Both Shannon and Josh were extremely fun and creative in their shots. They helped us keep our day natural and laid back, which is exactly what we were looking for. Shannon also did an excellent job making sure we stuck to our timeline and helping move guests when we needed it. We just received some of our pictures back and I am astonished at the pictures and I can’t stop looking at them! Shannon and Josh truly captured the beauty of our day!
I highly recommend Creative Interpretations to anyone looking for photography for their event! As I researched photographers, CIP had great reviews and their value was the best I have seen. My husband and I were paying for our wedding on our own so we were on a budget. No other company offers what CIP offers at incredible price points they have available. There are many options for all budgets and in no way are you sacrificing talent and amazing work! Paul was also very helpful and responded quickly to any questions that I had throughout the process. I can’t wait to get the rest of my pictures. I couldn’t be happier with my decision to use CIP!
We first met Parascevi “V” and Paul at a wedding show and instantly loved their energy, passion, and their work. It was also a huge bonus that they give you ALL of your photos. When we booked, we decided to go with V and MaDawn as our photographers.
We worked with V first for our engagement shoot at Caledonia State Park. Despite it being the hottest day of 2018, we had the best time! She made the session so much fun and even brought her husband Jeff to assist with our assortment of props. At one point, she even hopped in the lake with us to get the best angles possible. After the engagement shoot, we had our pictures back quickly and they turned out perfect.
After the engagement shoot, Paul was awesome at sending us updates on their business (they had a move during that time and they updated their website), sending us friendly reminders on payments, answering all of our questions, and working with our other vendors! One of the things that impressed me the most was how responsive they were – every time I reached out with a question, we had a response in under an hour!
Lastly, I cannot say enough how amazing they were for our big day!! V and MaDawn made an amazing team, were right on time (and kept us on schedule), brought so much energy to the day, were beyond accommodating, and they had so many creative photo shot idea. In addition to their professionalism, we had so many guests comment on how sweet they both were – and our bridal party had a great time with both of them! We can’t wait to get our pictures back and absolutely recommend both of them to anyone!
My husband and I found CIP at a bridal expo where we met with Paul briefly who gave us a lot of great information about CIP's services. We were excited that we could choose a photographer from his staff that matched our personal style. We ended up choosing Amanda Stauffer and Josh Goodman as our photographers and could not have been more impressed with their professionalism and patience. They were wonderful to work with and we are completely impressed with the few sneak-peeks we received already and look forward to seeing our other images. Paul was also always willing to answer any questions promptly and kept in contact with us from before we even hired him up through our wedding day. We would definitely recommend CIP and hope to use them again in the future.
