Eivan's Photo & Video

I had a great photographer through Eivan’s Photo, Inc. He was kind, professional, and I’m very happy with how my wedding photos turned out. I can’t wait to get them all printed and hung in my home very very soon. It was also a quick turn around time from my wedding date to when I got the photos back (less than a month)! I would definitely recommend this vendor to anyone who may be planning their upcoming wedding. They were also very affordable in comparison to other vendors that I had looked out.

The professionalism and communication was amazing! And I’m so excited to see the pictures! 10/10 would hire them again!

I had a wonderful experience with Eivan's. The process for booking was fairly simple and was affordable for what I needed. When I had issues with payment they were so accommodating an understanding with me and helped me. My photographer was Sam and he did a wonderful job shooting my wedding day! He was fun to shoot with and was very kind and accommodating. He made sure that I was getting what I wanted and if I had any ideas for what I wanted he'd gladly do them for us. I definitely would recommend working with them.

VERY RESPONSIVE , VERY PROFESSIONAL , ON TIME, ENGAGED WITH US . PETER OUR PHOTOGRAPHER WAS GREAT !!

The TLDR: Eivan's was the only vendor we would have changed for our wedding, which was otherwise a wonderful event. We declined Eivan's offer for free items in exchange for not posting a negative review so that we could post our honest feedback and help other couples. Pros: * The sales process was very smooth. * When covid hit, they were very flexible in moving our date at no extra cost. * Free engagement photos was a nice addition. * Eivan's offered the ability to give us the raw video footage, which was important to us and not many other vendors offered that. * Having photography and videography services through one company was attractive to have one fewer vendor to coordinate with. Cons: * You are unlikely to be assigned the photographer you give priority ranking to (Eivan's says up-front that it's not guaranteed, but see this as a common complaint in other reviews and we were assigned our 4th and 5th preference out of 6 options). * Their customer service was clearly swamped during 2021 but I believe their voicemail even said something to the effect of fining customers if the inquiry was deemed to be non-urgent (they told us they'd call us back but didn't on several occasions). * Eivan's contracts out their team so there is not much oversight/influence. One of our photographers refused to show either proof of vaccination or a negative covid test (this was in 2021 when New York had it as a mandate). Eivan's did not respond when we reached out so we just had to go with it. The other photographer showed up with a horrendous cough and we had to ask him to wear a mask. * We first received our photo proofs after two months and we were missing so many pictures. We must have taken pictures with over 40 families and we only got back a handful. There were also no individual portraits of the bride with her sister/bridesmaids, the groom with his brother/groomsmen, or even the groom with his parents! They eventually added in some extra photos but it took a long time. The watermarks on the proofs are also so intrusive that it hinders choosing photos for the album. * When we first received the draft of the wedding video five months after our event, it was a few hours long and even included 45 minutes showing guests exiting the wedding venue. The Eivan's sales team had recommended us to have two videographers but they hadn't even used the primary videographer's footage at all. Our heads were out of frame during the ceremony footage and we were also out of frame for most of our first dance; it looked like security camera footage. We reached out several times over several months and finally had to say that if they didn't resolve the issue we would take the matter further and that's when they offered to give us free items in exchange for signing a "Settlement Agreement and General Release"--which we declined. All we wanted was what we paid for. Finally when they looked into it they realized they had archived our primary videographer's footage and that's why it wasn't included. We finally received our footage 8-9 months after our wedding and even after all that, they had used copyrighted music so we had to edit the footage on our end to remove it. We know this was a long review, and we did eventually end up getting all the things we paid for and to an acceptable level of quality, but honestly the whole process was a headache and if we had to do it again Eivan's would be the only vendor we would replace.

Cheap but not professional

Our photographer, Dariush, was very professional, friendly and was great at knowing how to ease our nerves and lighten the mood of the bridal party when we had pre-wedding jitters. We deeply enjoyed working with him and he was a great professional to work with. While waiting for our photos to be ready to download we contacted customer service and spoke to Rana and Jay who were both a pleasure to speak to and were real professionals. They were ready to listen and assist our needs and they were very responsive and helpful. The quality of their customer service department is definitely one to imitate.

We had a great experience using Eivans company. Our experience with the photographer Yesika and videographer Alex was beyond more than what we could have expected!! They both were professional and patient and ensured to get the shots that were most important for us during our wedding. We first booked with Eivans in 2020 and due to the pandemic of course had to reschedule. The company was flexible and easy to work with and always was available to discuss questions we had. It was a good experience and we would recommend using Eivans for you upcoming events/photoshoots, etc.

This company is great to work with. The photographer and videography for my wedding we’re amazing, the pictures I reviewed were perfect!Pricing is very affordable.

I absolutely loved the photographer and videographer that Eivans sent! They were professional, sweet and super knowledgable. They were on time, gave amazing pose suggestions and captured all the important moments of the night. The photos were also gorgeous!

Absolutely great service, extremely affordable packages compared to other competitors. I will recommend Eivan's to everyone I know. Thank you for capturing one of the most important days of my life !

The only thing I would do differently about my wedding if I had the chance to redo it is the photography company. I chose Eivan because of their price and the photos on their site--but you are not guaranteed a photographer who can take photos like you see on their site. Our photographer was nice and worked really hard on our wedding day, but simply did not really know how to give us directions about how to pose and such. We did end up with a lot of nice photos, but not a huge variety of photos. However, my two main complaints are: 1- Their editing is TERRIBLE. The company clearly did not work hard editing photos (cropping or light editing). I ended up having to edit many myself once I received the photos. Very little or even no editing was done by the company despite it being promised. They definitely see themselves as just a company pushing work out rather than artists. Very little quality control was done. 2- I did not receive ANY photo sneak peaks like basically any other company would offer. I received my whole gallery about 2 weeks after the wedding (which was fast, but again because there was little to no editing done) but they all had massive water marks across the photos. In that gallery I had the option to pay an astronomical amount of money to get photos that were not water marked OR wait three months for my photos. My wedding was on March 26th and I did not receive any photos that I could use for anything until July 11th. Overall, my complaints are not about the photographer himself but largely the company as a whole.

Eivan's was great to work with! They were very flexible when we had to postpone our wedding multiple times due to the pandemic. The photographer and videographer we had were very professional and so much fun! The pictures came our beautiful! It is good to know that you do not get any pictures for several weeks after you event, but it was well worth the wait!

We used Eivan's for our wedding this September. While we have not gotten our pictures back yet, the photographer was awesome and put us at ease. He thought of angles and shots we wouldn't have. The price was also reasonable. Definitely recommend.

Eivan’s provided me with the best photographer and videographer ever. They were very professional and made sure to capture great moments at the wedding. Special shoutout to the photographer Michael B. for working on his birthday and helping me with my awkward poses. You’re the greatest!!

The service provided by our team was great. They managed to capture plenty even with the obstacles we faced that day.

We really had a great experience with Evian's photographer and Video Grapher on our wedding day. They seem to capture the best moments of the day. I would highly recommend them for your photography needs.

I loved how our photographer and videographer took the time to meet us &’ it helped feeling more comfortable in front of them on the big day.

Very professional and very accommodating with last minute changes.

Jameson was amazing and Eivan’s was so helpful from start to finish. I highly recommend!

Was extremely happy with our photographer. His communication prior to the wedding was so helpful and made me feel less stressed. We got married at a mountain and he didn’t even hesitate to get on a chairlift! He worked fast and efficient. Was very happy with our experience.

They were very professional. Always easy to reach, and replied my emails quickly. I had an overall great experience with them. The team that came to my wedding was awesome and friendly. Our photographer was an awesome person to work with and I can't wait to see my pictures. totally recommend. Great price for all we got in our package.

My husband and I cannot thank Eivan's Photo & Video enough!!! The entire process from booking them as a vendor for a big day up until the celebration was a breeze and that is saying a lot considering I was a covid bride with 3date changes. They made rescheduling my dates so easy. The day before my wedding in August 2021 they called just to check and make sure I didn’t need to make any last-minute adjustments to my timeline. I really appreciated that more than words can say. On our day the photographer and videographer we on time and very professional I knew I was in good hands. Seeing our prints a short few weeks later confirmed I was right and make the right choice.

My husband and I had the best experience with Eivans photography. They were so helpful and very nice and met our needs. They also had some awesome deals going on so we didn't have to pay an arm and a leg. Our photographer that we had our wedding day was amazing He was so nice he did such a good job took so many pictures made me feel beautiful my husband feel so handsome we just know that he did an amazing job with our wedding photos. We are so happy we went with them. Promise you guys won't be disappointed if you do.

We had a great experience working with Eivan’s for our wedding day. We knew we wanted quality photos and a video to capture our day! Kalie and Ed were wonderful to work with and really took the time to capture all of the important details of our wedding. They contacted us a week before our wedding to finalize everything and were very professional!

Our photographer and videographer were great! Very professional and friendly. I had a big wedding party and they worked great with everyone! I can’t wait to see the pictures and my video!

Things were great at first. They were so organized and communicative when booking our services and even up to the week before the wedding when the photographer and videographer reached out to me to go over the shot list I specified (they even ask for a shot list! so thorough!). After the wedding, they forgot to upload some of my pictures to my gallery, and I learned THEN that they watermark all of your photos and don't release them until 3 months after they've posted them. I had a different photographer from my ceremony the day before and we got the fully edited, high resolution photographs upon the publishing of the gallery. My husband and I paid $3100 upfront and we expected to own the photos we received, not have to wait for watermarks to be removed. You can get them removed sooner, but you have to pay. I tried so many times to contact them and radio silence. I only got through to them by setting up another appointment as though I was going to book them as a new customer. My advice is to stay away. We thought we were getting a great experience out of this but we didn't!

I was Definitely not disappointed with choosing Eivans!! Both the photographer and videographer listened to our wants for our big day!! They both had a great time and came up with a lot of other ideas to fit our needs! I highly Recommend them!!!!

Absolute great service. They were on time and with all the chaos of a big wedding they remained patient, professional and very helpful. Same with the post production they were very accommodating with the edits we wanted until the specifics were met. I wouldn’t think twice to hire them when I have another photograph/video production need.

We purchased the photographer and videographer with this company. They were very professional and provided new and exciting ideas for the wedding. We had limited time with certain spaces and they accommodated it very well. The Plus about these two were even in the rain (unplanned) they were with us every step of the way. Thank you for helping us make our day perfect.

Eivan's Photo & Video provided exceptional service.

good

Arthur & Max were simply amazing and easy to work with. Professional, punctual and their services were a bang for our buck!

Great photos and videos from Eivan's Nationwide. I absolutely loved everything and want to personally thank them for their service.

They did a wonderful job. There were a handful of photos I wish they would have gotten, but very happy overall.

Although we did not have communication with them until a week prior to the wedding they were affordably priced and very professional.

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 end up booking with Eivan's, but I had poor customer service which stopped me before I could even reach my consultation in person. I opted for a phone consultation before making the drive to their nearest location and the representative was poor, to say the least. He rushed me off of the phone and with every question I asked he simply told me to look on the website, which for the record I had many times and was where I got my questions from. Again, I cannot speak for their work as I did not book, but their customer service poor.

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 !

Read the contract! We were going to go with Eivan's for our photos and video until we read the contract. The experience from the beginning was a bit off. In the initial phone consultation, the girl spoke so fast and it seemed like she just wanted me off the phone to sign the contract. Then they want a $250 deposit before ever seeing the contract, which turned us off. It was refundable, but still, we don't get to read the contract before putting money down? And then when you get the contract, it's only good for 24 hours, so you can't shop around. Then in the contract, it states several times that they are not responsible for lost pictures, or pictures not taken. I'm sorry, but if the photographer erases all of the pictures, then he/she IS responsible. It also states that photographer has priority over the guests for pictures and will do whatever is needed, i.e. push guests out of the way or just not take the picture at all, which of course they are not responsible for. They are also not responsible for taking any pictures which you want them to take. If you need to cancel the event, then you have to pay the full amount of the contract PLUS 50%. Seriously? They claim it's not a penalty, it's for damages. Finally according to the contract, you are not allowed to write any negative reviews. If you do, they will charge you for every day the negative review is posted. It is not enforceable, but you would still have to fight it and this is why you can't find many, if any, negative reviews about their service. What are they hiding if you can't leave a negative review? Buyer beware!

We are throughly disappointed with the Eivan's Nationwide Photo vendor. Composition was not done well with legs cut off or too much foreground. Editing was incorrect with subjects so far away. The photographers were inconsiderate to wedding guest and wedding party alike. when we share our concerns before we had received our pictures, Eivan's held our photos "hostage" until we remove our poor review. BEWARE BRIDES, you will spend $1,200. or more, and the memories of your special day will be sub standard. (they get one star ONLY because a rating is required) Kelly from Colorado Springs, CO

Although we loved our personal photographer and videographer, working with this company was a nightmare. We were going back and forth with them for about 6 months after our wedding because there were missing pictures from our wedding. Some were still never located (some of the most important photos to us) and the few we did receive came back poor quality. When we asked the status of where our photos were, we were told they were "too busy" to find them. We were able to get enough to make our album something we are proud of, but I would not recommend this company to anybody.
