Eivan's Photo & Video

My husband and I had such an amazing experience with Eivans Photography and videography. From the reasonable prices to the top notch skill of both photographer and videographer, we were so happy with our choice to go with Eivans!!

They ripped us off. They took pictures and because they took to long I gave a 1 star review. They won't give us the pictures we paid for AND they wanted 1500 MORE on top of the 1500 paid. They should be closed down.

Our photographer and videographer were the absolute best! They listened to what we wanted and had so many great ideas too capture the best moments of our lives!

The photographer and videographer were punctual, they were incredibly respectful of everyone's boundaries, and fed off of each other excellently for ideas.

I got married on 10/14/18 and decided to go with Eivan’s for photo’s/videography. After the wedding my wife and myself wasn’t pleased with the photos and video from Eivan’s. We had tons of issues with Eivan’s overall services and honestly felt our wedding day was ruined. Eventually we were able to connect with Sam. Sam took time out of his day to schedule meetings to talk over things. I noticed that Sam was very concerned about my experience and he focused on solutions. I must say that Eivan’s was able to fix the issues that they could control. Eivan’s went out of there way and even provided additional products. I honestly think anyone who is getting married should go with Eivan’s. You don’t normally come across companies that will take responsibility and schedule conference calls to make sure their customers are satisfied.

I highly recommend this company for anyone who is looking for a great experience. I enjoyed my photographer that they sent on my wedding day. Thank you for a great experience

Everything was horrible. I hired them because I read all the wonderful reviews but be warned here is why you don't hear of the negative. If you have an issue, a legit issue, they will not give any money back or really work with you, so don't expect that or think so. Here is what will happen, they will freeze your album for up to 180 days to "investigate" if you want or you just accept it as is with an offer to reedit the shots (up to 30 out of 1000) that were taken and edited poorly in the first place. We chose to investigate and the resolution was a photo album of 51 images that we could pick the supposed to trust to edit after seeing the 1st round of editing. Nothing was expressed in the quality of the work, just we can't go back and change things. This was supposedly a$750 value ( but amazingly goes to $1400 on the paperwork...) but wait it gets better. I am then sent documents to sign that gives my rights to write or tell how I felt about their services! I have a copy of all this and if I sign that they could sue if anyone on behalf or myself writes a negative word. This was not discussed at the resolution and I will not sign my rights away. No book that they can offer is worth stifling my rights to review them and I believe this is why you don't see a lot of bad reviews! So be warned and take your chances if you want. My video was very stagnant. The editing was bad and the used songs I never submitted, but once I got them to use the music sent them instead of whatever they chose and put things in the correct order it was decent but not what you see on advertisement! Nothing like they showed happened for my wedding and the photos...I might as well have my guest take photos since they had some really great shots. We had a small wedding of under 50 so 1 photographer and a videographer were hired. My photos made me cry and not happy tears just sick disappointment. I had blurry shots, cutoffs of the dress, my mom and mother in law helping me get ready, no pre-wedding staged photo of me but there was of my husband... the cake, and memorial chair that I stressed the importance of. I gave a list of everything I wanted cover and half was covered.

Best experience thus far!! We're sooooooo glad we decided to go with this company! Everyone was amazing to work with. We chose 2 photographers and 1 videographer and they were amazing. Their work was outstanding and customer service was a plus. Everyone we came in contact with was pleasant and did everything they could to ensure our day was nothing but the best!! Thank you Eivians!! I would recommend them to everyone!

Really mixed on what to say here, we did end up with some really beautiful wedding photos and an "OK" wedding video, but for the price I feel like I could've gotten better services elsewhere. I actually had to edit almost every single wedding photo before showing them to anyone because I just felt like they weren't up to par.

Amazing. Super professional and helpful.

UPDATE: I have to come back and edit my review because this company is not honoring something that was supposedly given to me for referring a friend. I had a follow up call with a representative from this company a couple weeks after the wedding. I mentioned that I had referred one of my bridesmaids to this company and she ended up booking them for her wedding. Well I didn't qualify for the new referral program but the representative wanted to give me some type of reward for the referral. I'd thought my package came with a video trailer but it did not, so as a reward, the representative added a video trailer to my package. Great. Well I received my wedding video on 10/31. I waited a couple days because I thought the video trailer would come in a separate email. On 11/5, I emailed the company (replied to the same email that sent the wedding video) and asked about the trailer but no response. On 11/7, I called the representative (direct line) who I spoke with during the follow up call but no answer so I left a message. Today is 11/11 and I still have not gotten a response. If I can't get the trailer, its ok but don't throw in an incentive and lead your customer on to something, then when your customer reach out to ask about it...complete silence. Is that a great way to do business?

Our photographer, Kalie Krause, did an amazing job. she was delightful, creative, fun and very professional

The photographer and videographer were great to work with. They put you at ease and fit in so well I rarely realized they were even there. We were not as pleased with the photo editing. The "corporate" part of the experience left something to be desired. We expected better service and care for the amount we were paying!

Maria (photo) and Darius (video) were awesome! They were very professional but also had a lot of fun and made us all feel very comfortable. They checked with us throughout the night to make sure we were getting all the coverage we wanted. I can’t wait to see everything!!

They provided a lot of content on our video.

I cannot express enough what a great job that eivans did. We had the photographer (dorin) go through mud to get the best shot. Seriously I cannot express how wonderful they were and how much they worked for us and we're flexible with changes. Best company ever. Also very affordable.

Eivans was the least expensive photo/video package we came across on the knot

For going into my wedding day blind, by not previously meeting either my photographer or videographer I was very impressed by the services we received. Our photographer William was so great! He walked right into the salon in the morning and started to get to work without any hesitation what so ever. I got so many compliments from guests about his professionalism, and could not have asked for a better person to take ideas from just about everyone in the bridal party as calmly as he did. Overall I am very pleased with the service we were provided with!

Mitchell and Galen were our videographer/photography team. I was pretty nervous because they did not know each other and it was our videographers first event with the company. However, I immediately became relaxed after the first time I spoke with our photographer, Galen. We instantly connected while discussing the tone/setting of my wedding. He spent a lot of time truly getting to know our story. The next day, I talked to our videographer, Mitchell. He blew me away when explaining the process (videography was new to me) and going over what the most important moments/aspects were to my us and our families. Our wedding ceremony was very intimate and Galen and Mitchell did everything they could do to make sure they captured those moments. Almost 3 months later and our wedding guests are still talking about how great they were. While taking pictures, we noticed our photographer was wearing an ice pack on his back while he was laying on the floor to get the shot I wanted. After a lot of prodding from a group of women, he finally told us he had hurt his back just days before. Not once did he grimace, complain or hold back on the shots he was getting - for 10 hours. We are so thankful we got this team and for their friendship that day. Our videographer actually handed me a kleenex because he thought I was crying. Couldn't have asked for a better day!

Eivan's made my husband's and I wedding day unbelievably special. The photographer and videographer we're amazing! They were definitely fun to work with! Our pictures and video turned out amazing, and I would choose them again in a heartbeat. I felt comfortable with what they were doing, and trusted them fully. They made my pictures look beautiful. I am speechless with the way they did everything. Also, reaching them is never a problem and if you leave a message they do return your call their customer service is excellent. I will never forget my wedding day and thanks to Eivan's for giving us a wonderful experience. They are fun to work with!!! Whichever photographer you get and videographer you sure won't be disappointed you will be satisfied!!! Thank You Eivan's for everything!!! They gave my husband and I exceptional service!! :)

We booked Eivans last year for our July 9th wedding and couldn't be more pleased with the services that we received. From the initial phone call to finally getting our pictures, they were always professional with our interactions and answering the multiple questions that I had. After we booked with them, they sent us a timeline of when we should be expecting certain things, and I was so excited when we finally got connected with our photographer and videographer a few weeks before the wedding day. I would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality photographer/videographer!

My husband and I were fortunate enough to work with Eivan's Photo & Video Inc. for our special day last month. It was really easy to communicate with Sam and he made sure he was always there if we had any questions or concern. Our wedding package included 10 hours of photography, but we realize a week before the wedding that we needed an additional 2.5 hours. Eivan's made it super easy for us to add the additional hours, hassle-free. Our photographer Marina was a sweetheart! She communicated with us through email a month prior to our wedding day. I loved the fact that she asked us to send any wedding photo ideas that we liked so she can incorporate it into our photoshoot during our wedding day. She was very prompt and easy to work with, which made it easier to get through our hectic 12 hour wedding day. I would recommend Eivan's to anyone out there who's looking for great service along with value and professionalism! Thank you Eivan's for capturing our special day, all 1k of them!

I was hesitant at first since Eivans provided such a good deal. I sent emails, triple checked the contract to make sure there were no strings attached. Again, I was super skeptical. Overall the customer service was phenomenal, the photographer and videographer were excellent. Not only were the photographer and videographer great but they were cool as all get out. I liked their personality and quality of the images. It really did exceed our expectations.

Sam was fantastic!!! He captured all the moments we wanted without being intrusive!!! Eivan's was such as easy company to work with too. Highly recommend!

I did not think this quality of photography / videography existed for this price. Eivan’s blew us away with how professional they were to work with, and the quality of their work is unmatchable. We used Eivans to coordinate a photographer / videographer for our wedding in Austin in June. We got matched with Sandor G and John A. They were fantastic! They were so polite to all of our guests, and got amazing shots. We really feel very blessed that we were able to get these guys at such an AMAZING price! All of my friends could not believe that there was a service out there like this, and when I tell my friends that are getting married they are so thankful. They are so easy to work with too. They always emailed back right away, or were able to answer the phone. They made photography stress free and easy, and even thought of things that I had not. If you are looking for a photographer or videographer for any service you hit the jack pot! I look forward to using them again! Thank you for everything Eivans. ☺

The team at Eivan's was very helpful when we were choosing the photo package we wanted. Never did we feel pressured to add on anything we didn't want. On our wedding day, our photographer, Jeff was a pleasure to work with. He was on time, flexible, and friendly. We have already recommended Eivan's to other friends who are starting to plan their big days!

I called to schedule an over the phone consultation to my surprise when the day came for my consultation I did not receive no phone call at my scheduled time. I waited an hour more with my daughter and her fiancé for the call and still no call. I sent them an email informing them how upset and unprofessional it was and that I was disappointed. I thought that they would read my email and maybe I would get a response back but wasn't expecting it. Monday morning came and I received a phone call from the district manager apologizing and informing me that there was a glitch in the system and if I would allow him to go fix it for me and my daughter. I thought what do I have to lose I can always say no and not sign a contract with them. We went onsite this time for the consultation because I was not taking any chances for another glitch. So we get there and we were greeted very nicely then we were taken to a room for the consultation and to our surprise it was the manager he was going to conduct the consultation. I was happily surprised he again apologize and showed us the packages and because of the glitch we had happen he made sure he took care of it and made the package really sweet. He did not have to add all the extra stuff he did but because he was sorry and wanted to make sure we knew that he valued our business he made sure my daughters wedding package had everything she wanted. He was awesome I would highly recommend them because even if they mess up the accept it and fix it. Love them and will use them again.

I was beyond excited to find this company!! So many services were outside our budget and I was nervous that I would have to sacrifice quality and professionalism but with Eivan's, NOT AT ALL! There multiple package options really allowed for us to customize everything we wanted/needed for our big day! Eivan's was able to match my husband's and I's styles and photo needs to a PERFECT photographer that worked extremely well with my family and bridal party. The quality of our pictures are beyond words and are just simply amazing. I am so happy to have found/used Eivan's services for my wedding and can't wait to have these memories for a lifetime!!

From beginning to end, our experience with Eivan's was first rate. We were looking for wedding photography over the course of our big day and Eivan's delivered. Our sales representative, Dughan, was highly responsive to every question we had, took us through our entire contract in great detail and was attentive to our needs at every step. Our photographers, Artur and Nick and videographer, Max were tremendous. They were professional, yet relaxed and very pleasant, and fit in with our guests extremely well. They took well over 2,000 photos and hours and hours of video! We could not have asked for any better than this team. I highly recommend Eivan's.

All I can say is wow! We hired Eivan's for our wedding day and I have to say it was the absolute best decision and right choice! The price was very fair and the employee who booked us was very flexible and willing to help us out in any way possible. Our photographer, Tom Widmar, was absolutely AMAZING! He was very prompt in responding to emails, he communicated well with me, he was on time and ready, he stayed busy the entire time taking thousands of pictures, he was patient with me when I was overwhelmed, he was kind, and most of all he shot BEAUTIFUL work. I would do business with both Eivan's and Tom as well. Thanks for having such an important part in my special day!

Our Wedding was June 12th 2016 at the Abbey Resort in Fontana, WI. The venue was beautiful, and our photographer, Mike, knew exactly how to capture our perfect day. He had structure, which I appreciated. It was very clear that he knew exactly what to do to get great photos. I felt he, and Brandon (our videographer), were very flexible and professional. Not to mention, they were extremely kind and outgoing. When we received our photo gallery, we were over-the-top excited and happy. Mike truly caught the essense of our big day. My suggestion to you brides and grooms- do not get the lowest package. It was impossible for us to choose only 30 photos- we called for an upgrade right away. Definitely get the package with the rights to all the photos because they do such a wonderful job capturing all the special moments :) When doing my upgade, Sam was also extremely helpful in making sure I could get exactly what I needed. We highly suggest Eivan's!

Eivans did such a wonderful job the day of our wedding on May 28, 2016. The entire staff was polite and respectful and they showed up on time to each location the day of our wedding. I would recommend Eivans to all of my family and friends looking to hire a a photography company.

My husband and I were married on 12/12/15 and we were very grateful to have Eivan's photography and videography capture our special day. We worked with Mike and Shannon and they were a pleasure to work with. They captured moments that I wouldn't have otherwise seen which made me very happy. They were very professional and prompt and worked well with my large bridal party. The price for what you get is amazing and Eivan's was always quick to answer questions throughout the planning process.

So professional and creative! Started a head of schedule and continued throughout the day! Flexible with some new ideas we had. Took tons of pictures and kept things fresh and fun!

The value and the professionalism of the photographers and videographers is incredible. Highly recommend!

Both the photographer and videographer did a great job! The package deal offered was an amazing value!!

I got married September 28, 2013! Not sure why it took me this long to write a review. But here it goes: I love pictures, I think they are one of the most important aspects of any celebration. A picture can take you back in time and allow you to remember that day like it was yesterday. For that reason I was looking for a company that took their job seriously and was affordable. I came across Eivans while searching on this website www.theknot.com and gave it a shot. I saw the price and thought it was too good to be true. We scheduled a consultation and got lucky to have Steve as the consultant and as our photographer. He was awesome, so easy to work with and went along with anything I asked of him. He was so helpful and friendly. He was yes to make sure the day went smoothly. They prices were reasonable, compared to other companies. I felt that we got a lot for our money. The one thing I wish I would had done however was buy the copy rights to the pictures before the wedding. As they become extremely expensive after the wedding. After almost three years I called Evian's to see if the price for the pictures' copy rights had gone down, unfortunately it was the same price. I asked my husband if the pictures were worth it, which to be honest they are, but the price was out of our budget. I called again and asked if something could be done, they were able to bring the price down to something more comfortable. Though ideally it's not what I wanted to pay, I'm thankful they worked with me and lowered the price. I went ahead and bought the copyrights to my pictures and I don't regret it one bit! I do love the pictures and the work that Steve did! I know I will have these memories to cherish for years to come! I recommend Evian's Photography in a heartbeat.

Our photographer and videographer were amazing! very artistic and had great ideas. The customer service is great too, they always emailed back or returned my calls in a timely manner! Cant wait to see my photos and video.

Our photos are beautiful. Will C. & John were great. Thank you guys so much

I've had 2 of my friends use eivans and the photographer Will. We were excited when we found out he was doing our wedding as well

We had a wonderful experience with Will as our photographer and Nancy as our videographer! The day was handled with efficiency and professionalism and Will was wonderful at directing the flow of the pictures and arranging us for pictures. We received the picture proofs this week and we are so pleased with the photos and the fact that we received 2300 pictures! Eivans lets you see the proofs on their website with a watermark and then you can purchase the download rights immediately at an additional cost or wait a couple of months to receive the CD of all the photos (if purchased with your package). We will be waiting, but we are very happy with how they turned out and looking forward to sharing the photos!

We had Will as our photographer... Amazing! He was very thoughtful and was always making sure that we were getting the pictures we would like without overwhelming us. We made sure everything went smoothly. Highly recommend using Eivan's and Will

Loved their work! It was very affordable and I couldn't have asked for a better company to capture the best day of ever ! I would definitely recommend them to anyone getting married !

Our photographer, Sandor was fantastic! He was energetic yet thoughtful about the poses we shot. My husband is not the best at taking picture, Sandor made him feel comfortable and the pictures turned out beautiful! Thank you so much!

Eivan's Photo & Video provided me and my wife exceptional service. They were very kind and professional and they helped me with accomplishing our desires. The photographers have great knowledge because they took superb engagement photos and our photographer chose our beautiful location. So no worries if you can't think of a place to do your photos! They were also very helpful in what I wanted to do in the reception because I wanted to sing for my wife and they provided me a mic to clip on my jacket and it was heard directly to the video so there was no echo. Overall, the service was stellar and you get a lot for your money so if you want QUALITY, go with Eivan's Photo & Video.

Eivan's was a great company for photo and video. The package that I received was a fantastic price! I was a little upset that my photographer was 3o minutes late to the hotel. The videographer was on time and didn't stop rolling for the majority of the time. I had to remind my wedding coordinator to tell the photographer to take photos during certain times, but it still went well. The photographer was very funny and easy to work with. I would recommend them again!

Every moment I wanted captured was done, even the ones I didn't expect. Both photographer and videographer were wonderful. Publications department are very professional and cooperative.

I couldn't have asked for a better team for my wedding. Will and John were both amazing and had no problem creating any visions I had for pictures. They did all I asked plus more and were so great in carrying out requests made by me or guests. I had several guests rave about how wonderful will was in taking photos from table to table. I was skeptical in pricing from the beginning but after I have no doubt I received the best for my money.

I would recommend Eivans to everyone. They did such a phenomenal job with our video and photos, that I cannot thank them enough. I know, after having our wedding, that one of the most important things that a bride and groom need to look into is their photographer and videographer. That is the only thing, besides your memory, that lasts from that day, until forever. They were able to capture such amazing footage that I did not know was possible. I've never really done any photo shoots or anything, and the way they made us look in these photos were incredible! Some of the shots they took were so amazing, we had about another 5 couples book with them, just based on the two or three photos they saw of us on our wedding day. Not to mention, the prices and their customer service is great. Someone always gets back to me immediately if I call with any questions, and we were shocked that the pricing for photos and videos were not outrageous compared to several other companies. We are so happy we chose them for one of the most important days of our lives. This is truly a great company that I would recommend to anyone!

Last year, my husband, (then fiancé at the time), and I were on the search to find a wedding photographer and videographer. Since we were on a tight budget, we sought out a company that can offer quality photo and video within an affordable price point. After several months of research, we came across Eivan's. We found them through a magazine advertisement on The Knot Chicago for a 10 hour Photo and Video package starting at $1299.00. Knowing this info, we were intrigued and decided to do more research on their work and what they can offer us. At first, we were skeptical with the low cost of the package. Many photographers charge thousands of dollars (I've seen photography pricing range from ($3,000 to 5,000) for photography only! And that's just separate from your additional video expenses!!! So obviously when we learned that they would provide both photo and video for a fraction of their cost, we then decided to check out their portfolio on their website to view their work. On their website, they had sample video highlights from prior weddings (which were shot on location) off their blog page and I'll have to say after viewing a few, they were excellent. It's no wonder they claim to hold the title of being professional storytellers of weddings! Their video reel highlights had professional grade cinematic quality to them. It was almost like watching a Hollywood movie except the stars are you and your husband!!! You even get the chance to add in your own special music to your wedding video so that was an added bonus. Using their downloadable link, you transfer your MP4 music and download it to their web page. Having the ability to add your favorite song to your wedding video really offers that personal touch to signify your special day. We loved their work so much that after looking at a few portfolios, my husband and I immediately booked an appointment with Elaine over in sales to make sure our date was available (which it was ). YaaY!!! Flash forward to 6 months post wedding... As I look back at our wedding album and DVD, I never regret choosing Eivan's. Once you've booked with Eivan's, there are forms they will periodically send you up until your big day. These forms are for you and your spouse to fill out detailing exactly what moments you want documented in order of priority. From there, they build a timeline for you so that every shot from beginning to end gets covered and nothing gets missed. On the week of your wedding, your photographer and videographer contact you over the phone to go over logistics and final details. They go over your ceremony and reception time line one last time to make sure your day runs smoothly and you get the pictures you want. I love that they have all this organized down to a science which tells me that they A.) Know what they're doing, B.) they've done it for a long time, and C.) they make sure that no detail goes missed as long as you specify what you want documented. Customer service was awesome and their customer relations handled any questions I had as quickly and prompt as possible. Sam was a pleasure to work with and the staff were kind and attentive to what my husband and I were looking for when it comes to professional wedding video and photography. Thank you Eivans for helping us create and document wonderful memories we will cherish for years to come.

The planning for a wedding is so stressful especially as we got closer to our wedding date. The one thing that I was confident and secure in was our photographer and videographer Evians. Everything went so smoothly from beginning to the end. They are very professional and offer competitive prices. We were able to schedule all of are pictures when we were ready we did not have to worry about dates unavailable and all of are pictures turned out great. I was also glad that I decided to get the wedding video because there were so many things I did not see or forgot about because the day goes so fast. Thanks to Evians I have beautiful pictures and a video that will last a lifetime. I have no regrets and refer them to all my friends.

Eivan's photography and video did an amazing job at our wedding! The staff was all very kind and professional. They kept us on track during the day and made sure all of the important moments of our day were captured! I would highly recommend Eivan's.

Our wedding was december 19. We had Will as our photographer and John as our videographer and we could not be more happy! Both of them were the best we could have asked for! They both arrived at the house to take pictures/video of the girls getting ready. They were very respectful of our house and even put up with the craziness of getting ready. At the ceremony they made us feel very comfortable. They were not in our face the whole time, but the pictures came out wonderful! We actually just received the link to view today and we could not have asked for better pictures/video! The reception they made sure to get the dancing as well as everyone who attended. They went table to table to take pictures of everyone. there had to have been 10 different people there taking pictures because they seemed to catch every single shot! They were great! They didn't make us awkwardly re-do any moments or anything like that. They kept our family group pictures moving smoothly, and made sure to catch some great action shots. If you go with Eivans you are definitely getting your money's worth! And be sure to ask for Will and John because they will undoubtedly do an amazing job!! We cannot thank them enough! Thank you guys!!

The package is a great deal and the company is easy to work with at first, but pay attention to your contract. It takes forever to get your pictures and your video. The photographer we had was nice and professional but did not take very creative photos and we were left with a limited selection. Did not get as many photos as I thought we would (very few of the ceremony, no first kiss, and missed key moments I specifically requested). Overall somewhat disappointed in our photos and Eivans did not respond when I questioned the quality. The videographer was great. We have not received our video yet and it has been over 2 months so hopefully worth the wait. I don't think I would use this company again. dissatisfied with our photos.
