Figtree Productions was recommended to us by my cousin who used them almost 10 years ago for his wedding and pregnanby shoot! They were the first photography vendor we met with and...
the only one we met with. Joel and his family are very nice, responsive, and professional. We had our complimentary engagement shoot at a park near Wayne and we LOVED the pictures! Our wedding photos were equally as beautiful. Joel and his family captured the whole day and worked with both of our families. We worked closely with Danielle on our wedding album and it came out better than we had expected!! Thank you Joel and family!!
My husband and I met with Figtree Productions after several people recommended them to us. After meeting with them, we knew they were the right choice! Joel and his family were a p...
leasure to work with, leading up to the wedding and on our wedding day! We cannot say enough great things about them and their work!
We were very happy with Figtree Productions as our photographers for our August 2014 wedding. My husband and I had met with several other highly-reviewed photographers, but we felt...
the quality of both the photography and the physical products (particularly the albums) from Figtree far exceeded the others. And another huge benefit was getting four photographers with different perspectives for what most others charged for two! Joel, Doris, Danielle and Jessica were all very easy to work with and made us feel comfortable during both our engagement shoot and our wedding. They captured a great variety of interesting, artistic, sentimental, and even funny photos that we're very glad to have. We were very happy with how our thank-you cards and wedding album turned out as well -- Jessica and Danielle did a great job designing these and were very easy to work with after the wedding. We would definitley recommend Figtree to other couples.
We used Figtree for our wedding on 8/31/14 and were so pleased with them. During our initial meeting with Joel and his daughters, we very impressed by their work. We also felt very...
comfortable with them and thought that their pricing was very fair and straight forward. With most photographers, you get only one and have to pay for the 2nd if you want another photographer but with Figtree, you get 4 included at the same price to be a part of your wedding day. It is even more special because they are a family. Joel, Doris, Danielle and Jessica are all professional, good spirited and talented individuals. While reviewing our pictures back, we were able to see from 4 different beautiful visions.
For our engagement session, Joel suggested a park in Wayne, and we couldn't have been happier with the location and pictures. It was our first time being professionally photographed together. They made us feel so comfortable and it was such a fun afternoon.
During our wedding process, they were easily reachable and responsive. They were very professional and had forms for us to fill out detailing all the particulars of our wedding day and what we wanted photographed.
During our wedding day, they could'nt have been more professional, kind, inconspicuous and helpful. They made me feel special, going so far as carrying my dress into the church and helping to bustle my dress in the evening. Another perk of having 4 photographers is that they can be split up at the bride and groom's house and for different angles all day.
We were so excited when we received an email saying that our pictures were ready. They were so beautiful and special, with the most crisp and high quality images.
We have these beautiful pictures to relive our wedding day for the rest of our lives and have Figtree to thank for it!

We are so happy we chose Figtree Productions. Not only were we comfortable with working with them, our bridal party was as well. We all had a great time with them on the Wedding ...
day, they made us feel relaxed and let us be ourselves. Our preview photos were amazing, and we were even more pleased when we received the rest of them. The story of our day was truly captured and we couldn't be happier.
Wouldn't recommend.
I got married on 03.09.12. Joel and his family worked with me from start to finish. They are extremely professional and make you feel very comfortable. My pictures are to die for! ...
The video is amazing. I was pleased with everything. I am particular about my style and while designing my album, Danielle took art direction from me without hesitation. They are a very kind family with amazing talent. My album is my most favorite book I own, and the parent albums made an excellent Christmas gift that our Moms really enjoyed. I loved reliving my wedding through the video and was so thrilled with everything they captured that I was unable to see on that special day. I would recommend them over and over again. You get a lot for your money.
I was married in August 2012 and had a very large bridal party. Needless to say, this did not make for easy photos. I had 25 people including my husband, son and myself. I recei...
ved my photos very quickly and had a hard time narrowing it down for my album since I loved most of the photos. I actually had to add more photos to my album! I love candid photos and they gave me a good combination of both them and traditional. They are a very pleasant family to work with and I would recommend them to anyone.
Figtree was recommended to us by a fellow bride. We booked them immediately after meeting them and they did not let us down. The engagement session with Danielle, Joel, and Jessi...
ca was fabulous. They captured the magical moment in our lives. The book was a hit at our rehearsal dinner as we passed it around for signatures.
The day of our wedding, Danielle, Jessica, Joel and Doris were great at getting different shots of our families and friends using the beautiful background. We loved all of the pictures and had thousands to choose from. Our album is better than we could have hoped for. The cover is a piece of art!
Thanks for all your hard work, Figtree!
My husband and I used Figtree Productions for our engagement photos, as well as wedding photos. The first time we saw their work, we knew we had to have them as our photographers....
They were great to work with, and are such a creative family! We got so many compliments on our engagement shoot, and within days of putting them on Facebook, I got messages from at least 3 people asking for their info! One couple ended up using them for their wedding this past summer as well :) When the Figtree family showed up at our wedding, they were profession yet fun and made the photo taking process a breeze! Doris and Danielle were so supportive the whole day and extremely comforting! The proofs were back in our hands within a week of returning home from our honeymoon, which was so exciting, and of course the photos we're simply amazing. I would recommend Figtree Productions 100%!!
Figtree Productions was a pleasure to work with. We loved all our pictures from the wedding. It took us so long to narrow them down for the album. We had a super fun engagement ses...
sion and loved all those pictures as well. People can't stop talking about how great our pictures are. I loved how they took pictures of all the special touches I put together for the wedding. Since I was so busy that day, I didn't get to see everything and I relived the wedding when going through the pictures. We are so glad we have these amazing pictures from amazing photographers to keep for the rest of our life.
I recently used Figtree Productions for my September wedding and they were amazing to work with! All questions that I had were answered in a timely manner. You get 4 photographers ...
which is great because you will get pictures from diffrent views and angles.. My pictures came out beautiful! I would highly recommend them for your upcoming wedding.

I cannot count how many friends have used Figtree after us. I love them and will continue to use them nbow for newborn sessions. This family is wonderful at capturing special momen...
ts! Especially love their journalistic approach rather than posed pictures! Well worth the $$ and many different options for all price points!
Figtree was great! You get four photographers at your wedding so you're guaranteed a variety of different styles and shots. They listen and accommodate beautifully. I LOVE my pi...
ctures and my album is gorgeous. Totally recommended!!
We found Figtree after a lengthy search; all of the photographers we interviewed either didn't have the artistry we were looking for, were way too expensive, or we couldn't identif...
y with them as people. Upon meeting Joel we felt immediately comfortable with his excellent artistry and his practical business sense. We booked Figtree for photos and video and couldn't be happier. Things get even better when we met the rest of the family, Joel's wife and daughters, all of whom are outstanding photographers. Figtree is a true family production, and instead of getting just one photographer you get at least three. Try pricing out what even one additional photographer costs with most places and you will see what a value Figtree truly is. We couldn't be happier with their end product (remarkable photos) or their continual communication with us, which is so important in a vendor relationship. From the engagement shoot onward we felt a real connection with all of the people at Figtree,and we were very comfortable putting our big day in their hands. Letting true professionals do their thing means one less thing to worry about on the day of the event; we figured it was our first wedding, but Figtree does it every week so they really know what they're doing! All of our guest remarked at how discreet the photographers were, it's like they just moved throughout the event without causing a stir - they go about their business so quietly you wouldn't even know they were there, until you see the wonderful photos that are produced. Good luck in your search for a photographer - if you happen to speak to Figtree you definitely won't be disappointed. They are genuine artists and true professionals!
My fiance and I just finished our engagement session with Figtree and could not be happier with the results. The photos are absolutely stunning--from the lighting and colors to the...
cropping and camera angles, Joel and Jessica took extreme care with every detail. We've received so many compliments and are having a hard time selecting just a few images! More importantly, Joel and Jessica were so pleasant to work with and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We can't wait to meet the other half of the Figtree team and see what they come up with for our wedding day!
Figtree Productiond did an amazing job at our wedding. It was great having four photographers because they did not miss a thing. They were able to capture us from various angels fo...
r each pose giving us a large selection of photographs to choose from in the end. In addition, to the wonderful job they did at the wedding, the albums they create are unique since they all posess the personal tastes of each couple they work with. I would highly recommend using them.
I really cannot say enough about the Figtree Family. They are AMAZING. Pictures and videos are truly the one thing that will last forever and because of Figtree, just looking at ou...
r pictures or watching our video brings us right back to that day. I get SO many compliments on our album. The work and time that is put into it, is shown in the final product.
The day of our wedding they were our favorite vendor. Easy to work with and so much fun, not to mention I don't even remember seeing them take all the pictures they did!!! Our pictures are out of this world and I would recommend them to everyone.
They take so much pride in their work and I think that makes them the best. They love what they do and it shows!

My husband and I were married October 2010 and we could not be more thrilled!!! We had our dream wedding and now we have pictures that captured every single wonderful second of our...
special day. Figtree Productions was EXACTLY what we had hoped for. They managed to photograph our wedding in a way that we never imagined possible. The pictures were a blend of traditional and modern styles and the variety of pictures we recieved took our breath away and had our family and friends asking for Figtree's business card! Each time we look at our pictures, we get to relive our wedding. This is our dream come true! We LOVE you Figtree Productions!!!!!
I love Figtree's work! I get so excited when they add new things to their blog! They did my cousin's wedding and they were so wonderful and their work is gorgeous! Everything fr...
