This review is an easy one to write, it's one of those reviews you don't have to think much about, and can't wait to sit down to put your thoughts and emotions into words. There truly is not a negative thing to say here. Idena and Mike are re...al people, like, the kind of people you want to tell to stop photographing you and to come join your reception...The type of people you would just want to hang out with at a bbq. This made our wedding shoot SO MUCH EASIER AND ENJOYABLE. Don't get me wrong, these guys are PRO'S, period. I mean, look at the website, look at our pictures, they are truly next level. The comments we got about both the digital and print copies of our photos were nothing short of pure awe. People were literally amazed at the way Idena was able to capture our wedding, our emotions, our nature...Everything about the day was captured to, dare I say, perfection. We hired Beach for our very small wedding (20 people) and were worried they would be in the way. Idena even warned us she might get annoying trying to get the right shots. They were not, and she was not, not even close. Mike took the role of getting shots of the the groom(me) and his crew pre-wedding ceremony, he fit right in, shared some laughs, made us feel comfortable and didn't demand anything cheesy or obnoxious, it was all very "go-with-the flow." Idena took the more important role (in my opinion) of shooting the bride getting ready, and my wife says she was warm and unobtrusive, and those pics were among the best of the bunch. The Beach crew then joined forces for the ceremony and reception, we had some ideas, they had some ideas, it was a happy marriage (insert smile) of ideas that came together for the ultimate wedding shoot (please note that their ideas were far better than ours). By the end of it my wife and I were enjoying the company of Idena and Mike as much as we were enjoying the company of the rest of our guests, we didn't want them to leave. They stayed longer than we booked them for, they had "first look" photos emailed to us immediately, they had the album digitized in a week or two, and we got all the prints our hearts desired, promptly.
You will regret passing on this couple to capture your wedding.
There is nothing left to say other than "thank you" Idena and Mike.
