Lia was the best! From the planning stages to the wedding day- she was so respectful of what we wanted and made our vision come true. She was calm and confident the entire day which gave me a sense of calm. I could not recommend her enough. We are OBSESSED with our photos!
Lia is absolutely amazing! I recommend her to everyone that I know that is looking for a photographer. She is photographing our wedding in august of 2024 and I cannot wait. She makes you feel so so comfortable. She is kind, honest and wants to make sure she is giving her best work. Her work is absolutely amazing! She takes her time and makes sure the light is just right. She spent so much time extra during our engagement session just to get the perfect sunset photos on the beach. She was the first vendor that I actually booked during my planning process and I knew that I was in good hands with Lia! I trust her so much and I felt so confident with her and new that I made the right decision :)
We cannot say enough about Lia. From the start, she and I knew there was a special connection. She is the kind of person you meet and feel like you’ve known your entire life.
We cannot wait for her to photograph our wedding this June 2024. Our engagement session was nothing short of perfect. I think we were all giddy by (1) being in NYC and (2) the unconditional excitement. She made us feel so incredibly comfortable and I’ve told friends how even just the engagement photo session made us feel closer and even more in love. Thanks to Lia’s kindness and flawless direction. I could not recommend her enough to others!!!
Our engagement session could not have gone better! Lia was super helpful with poses, made us feel comfortable, and patient with our crazy puppy. Lia is professional, yet bubbly, kind, and creative. Whenever I have had a question for Lia, she is super responsible and helpful as well. We truly cannot wait for Lia to capture our wedding day (November 2024 come sooner!!!).
Not only is Lia’s photography absolutely breathtaking and stunning, she felt like an old friend the first time meeting her! Lia is kind, creative, adaptive and has an eye for capturing beauty. It is clear how much love she puts into her craft. We are so, so happy with our engagement photos and cannot wait for her to attend our wedding as our photographer and cherished guest, as well!
Amazing! It was a cold day and my fiancé and I were both nervous for photos and she made it effortless! Just made everything so fun and sweet. Could not have asked for better engagement photos! They all look so natural.
Incredible. Professional. Bubbly. Kind. Responsive. Creative.
I don't think there are enough adjectives to describe Lia's personality and work ethic. My fiance and I absolutely LOVED shooting with her. She is organized and communicative. She responded to all my questions and helped with accommodations in booking an offsite location that needed permits. When we were shooting together, Lia made both my fiance and I feel comfortable. It really projected in our photos. Her creative eye and flexibility caught some amazing candid shots as well as contemporary poses. She really was able to embody the romantic sultry feel I wanted to translate in our photos. 100% recommend Lia!
We cannot say enough good things about our recent engagement shoot with Lia! Our engagement photos could not have turned out more beautiful. Lia gave us great direction and made us feel so comfortable, especially because we’ve never had professional photos before and we were very nervous. She spent the entire evening with us making sure we got the perfect shots! Her passion for photography really showed both on the day and in the pictures we received. We can’t wait to work with her again on our wedding day!
Lia did our engagement photoshoot and I am so glad we chose her. She is a wonderful human and an extremely talented photographer. She worked with us continuously as the weather was not in our favor on our engagement photoshoot day! She helped us find the perfect window where we were still able to do outdoor photography. She was very quick in delivering pictures and we are in love with our engagement photoshoot pictures. Thank you Lia :) You are an amazing soul and I am so glad we got to meet you.
I am completely convinced that there is no photographer out there that is better than Lia. From the day my husband and I first met her, we knew she was the one! After eight years together we wanted a fun, personal, and meaningful wedding- and Lia was a huge reason why we were able to have all of our dreams come true.
Lia’s photos speak for themselves. They are breathtaking. What truly blew me away, though, was Lia’s support, professionalism, expertise, and personality. A year into planning, we changed everything about our wedding- from things as little as the colors to things as big as the location. Lia took all of this in stride, allowing us to adjust our contract and traveling with us to my family’s lake home instead of our original venue. I would NEVER recommend changing plans this late in the process (brides- you know how stressful it all is!) but Lia turned a tearful, stressed out bride and groom into two people who finally saw their dream wedding as possible. She went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect. While we worked to re-plan and doubted the logistics, Lia talked about being inspired by the water, and emphasized how much she loved that we were doing what meant the most to us. Her positive energy meant so much to us and made us feel so comfortable! She became a friend in the process, listening to stories about the home as if it was her own family getting married that day, and capturing every detail mentioned, no matter how small. She kept our timeline running smoothly, even when we decided not to do a first look or see each other before the ceremony. She captured the place and people that mean the most to me in a refreshing, emotional, and beautiful way, and I will cherish the memories, and photos, for the rest of our lives.
One year after our wedding, we had family photos done by Lia, and my husband said it best that day: “Lia is good at EVERYTHING.”
Pick her. You will never, ever regret it! <3
From the moment we met Lia, we knew she was the right person to photograph our wedding! It was great that we were able to meet with her in-person to ask questions and look through some of her wedding albums prior to booking with her.
Prior to our wedding, she did a great job taking our engagement photos! We wanted peak fall colors and she helped us choose the right day to take our photos so that the timing with the leaves changing was perfect. It was so hard to choose which photo to use for our save the dates because we loved them all!
On the wedding day, both her and our second shooter went above and beyond! They did so much more than take our photos and truly helped make the day stress-free and fun. Our photos turned out so much better than we could have expected! She captured every important moment throughout the day and took many amazing photos of our guests as well. I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you, Lia!
Oh where do I even begin? When I was looking for wedding photographers, I had a very specific style I wanted. My fiancé and I wanted to make sure we liked the photos because that’s what you have to look back on, so we wanted to make sure we found the perfect photographer. I wanted timeless, classic, true to color. I kid you not when I say I had a spreadsheet of with 30+ photographers I not only reached out to but actually met to see if we would be a good fit.
I stumbled upon Lia’s profile while browsing Instagram photos. There was a photo I saw with the exact style/editing I wanted. She was the photographer tagged, so I naturally went to her page to take a look.
At my first meeting with Lia, I knew she was the one. As corny as it sounds, it’s true! Lia is so incredibly kind and genuine. She said she doesnt want to just be “the photographer,” but really part of the family. I knew I could trust her to capture our wedding day.
My fiancé and I were planning our wedding from afar, and Lia was always very accommodating with meeting times. She would meet us later in the evening to go over things. Lia made things so easy for us.
We did our engagement session with her. My fiancé and I were quite nervous because we aren’t picture people, we don’t really take photos so we weren’t sure how our engagement session would go. Lia made us feel SO comfortable. We really enjoyed our session with her and knew our wedding day would be no different!
Lia has a true talent for photography. She sees the world in a different lens. I don’t know how to describe it, but when you see Lia’s photos you are transported. She captures people in a way where you can feel the emotion and really connect.
If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding or really for anything else, look no further than Lia! Your memories will be captured in a beautiful and timeless manner.
Thank you, Lia, for making our wedding day so special and for being in our lives!
Lia is AMAZING! From our first conversation, I knew she’d be our photographer. She makes you feel comfortable like she’s your really good friend that you’ve just met. I will add to this more!!
Lia was hands down THE BEST photographer we could’ve asked for on our big day. She jumps in and helps with things that are way out of what any normal photographer does and she is calm and keeps everyone else calm as well. Our photos were absolutely stunning and Lia helped with our location adjustment when it rained on our big day and ensured we’d still have beautiful photos. We are forever grateful we found her and plan on using her for all future milestones in our lives. We love Lia <3
Lia did an incredible job with our engagement and wedding photos. She is patient, kind, and very talented. The photos turned out amazing. I highly recommend!!
Lia was amazing when meeting with her for the first time for our engagement session. (In very cold weather mind you) We are simple people who are just in love and she found such awesome ways to capture the best of us just being ourselves. I can’t wait for wedding day to work with her again. Highly recommend you connect with her!!
Lia is amazing!! She is so sweet and easy to work with. We found out our wedding venue accidentally double booked our wedding date after we had signed our contract and as soon as I told her she was so calm and made sure the new date worked with her schedule and switched everything over without a single hesitation. If you are like me and never know what to do when you are in front of the camera she is your girl. She lets you feel so natural and gives helpful tips here and there but it is truly an all organic moment for your photos. I will never stop saying how great she is and would more than happily refer her to anyone who needs a photographer.
Lia is the best! She was the photographer at my brothers wedding this year, and after seeing how amazing her work was we hired her for our engagement shoot and wedding! Our engagement photos turned out incredible and I can’t wait for the wedding. My mom is also a wedding photographer and thinks Lia is one of the best in the game!
Lia was absolutely amazing for our engagement shoot! She made us both feel so comfortable and we love every single photo we got back, they turned out better than we could have imagined! So looking forward to our wedding and the photos she takes!
Lia was absolutely amazing to work with! From the start to wedding day and even after has been 10/10. Working in the bridal industry myself I knew I had to find the right person with the vision I had in mind. I had previous brides of mine that I did beauty services for and everyone raved about her. So I knew she was exactly who I needed for my wedding day. Her photography style is timeless and I know it will look beautiful on our walls for a lifetime. She’s great at putting you at ease and making sure you both are comfortable but look amazing. She also picked the perfect second shooter for our wedding day which I highly recommend getting. So worth it! I can’t thank her enough and I recommend her to all of my brides I work with.
Lia was and continues to be a phenomenal person to work with. Not only was she incredibly helpful in us finding vendors for our special day- videographer, wedding arch; but she was such an encouraging and supportive day of individual. On our wedding day I was so thankful to have Lia with us. We are so grateful for our wedding images that she captured and appreciated all of the little meaningful details. We will absolutely be using Lia for future milestones and are so glad to have her in our lives.
Lia is simply the best! Even before getting behind the camera, she was so helpful and generous with her time when brainstorming engagement shoot settings and developing our wedding day timeline. During our engagement session, she made us both feel so comfortable and we were beyond pleased with what she captured. On our big day, she kept all of us calm and on schedule so that we could get all of our dream photos in. She has a fabulous eye for the best shots, and I am so grateful for her time and energy that she spent capturing our wedding! We loved her so much that my sister in law booked her for her own wedding. Thank you Lia!❤️
Lia was amazing. Our prior photographer had to cancel for reasons we understood and she came highly recommended. I now see why! She quickly understood who we were as a couple and brought that story to life in the art of her photography. She was unique in the approach and made our day as special as it could be! Thanks so much Lia!
Lia was nothing short of amazing. She was on time. She kept the day rolling. She was super sweet and personable, and she included my niece in many aspects which made her feel so special. She walked me through the steps and made my day so special. I was in awe at the work when I got it back. I highly recommend Lia to any couple getting married.
Lia wad absolutely amazing. she has such an eye for beautiful pictures. I can't not believe how good my engagement & wedding pictures turned out. I will book Lia for all my photography needs! I absolutely love her...
I don't even know how to express how wonderful and easy Lia made the entire process, from engagement photos, bonus change the date photos at her beautiful house, and finally our wedding photos. She somehow knew every angle, location, and person to photograph and was such a beautiful and happy spirit to have along for the ride. Before the wedding, Lia spoke with us for over 2 hours to make sure everything was set and even gave us amazing recommendations for our honeymoon in Maui. Our photos turned out beyond what we could have ever hoped for. I really don't feel like we had a photographer at our wedding, but instead a lifelong friend who just so happened to be amazing behind the camera. I would give Lia 10 stars if I could. <3
Lia was amazing! She gave us an incredible engagement shoot, turned around, and gave us an incredible set of wedding photos as well. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she and her collaborators are wonderful, enjoyable, delightful people to have around. They kept everyone relaxed and having fun, AND managed to craft some amazing photos in the process! Their staged portraits and in-the-moment pictures are equally high-quality, and both photographers added to the overall feeling of festive joy and love on our day. Lia is a true gem, both as a person and as a creator, AND her prices were fair, too (which, in the wedding industry, is a g-dang breath of fresh air, lemme tell ya)! It felt like having a friend do your pictures, without the fear of disappointment. Choose her. You won't regret it. Promise.
Lia is the sweetest most down to earth person you will ever meet! She was our wedding photographer and I couldn't have asked for better. Lia really knows how to make you feel comfortable behind her camera. She works very well with large groups and got the most beautiful photos. She pays attention to small details and really makes sure that her clients are happy. She is also amazing at keeping everyone calm & organized in crazy & chaotic situations (especially your wedding day). I wish I could get married again to get the chance to work with Lia again!
Look no further for your wedding photographer! Lia is amazing, she is so talented and really cares about her clients. My wedding photos turned out phenomenal and I’m so glad I chose her to capture our day!
My (now) wife and I hired Lia as our wedding photographer. We had excellent communication before and after the event itself. On the day of, Lia was working in conjunction with Michelle. Before the church service, Michelle went to photograph the men getting ready, and Lia went to photograph the women. Michelle was a rock star and was outstanding to work with. For the sake of simplicity, the rest of this review will only be referencing Lia, but know that Michelle and Lia were an awesome tag team the entire time, great chemistry together for the Church and for the reception.
Lia is a professional, and is passionate in what she does. She maintained a personal air of joy and fun throughout our entire wedding. When she got on the scene, it was evident that she loves what she does, like legitimately excited just to be there. Even when talking business, working with Lia felt like having a conversation with an old friend rather than just "someone you hire to provide a service."
She was very mindful of the natural beauty of our surroundings; the art, the trees, the light, and was tasteful with her photography (no stupid corny ideas that so many people go for these days). Everything felt very organic and timeless. She is a REAL photographer, an artist who understands what she's looking at. Yet, it was all so warm and fun that she could've just been another guest at our wedding with one helluva camera.
All in all, my wife and I had a beautiful wedding, an absolute blast that turned 2020 into our best year ever. Lia managed to capture and translate the jubilant, racing emotions of the bride and groom getting ready, the beauty and the significance of the Church ceremony, and the energy, joy, love, and community of the reception into still photos that can almost breathe. We can't recommend Lia enough to everyone we can, and I hope that this review gives the reader an understanding of our satisfaction. Thank you Lia!
Lia is THE BEST! Finding a great photographer was one of the most important things to me when wedding planning. As soon as we sat down and met with her I knew she was the one. She is so sweet, professional but also makes you feel like family. She gets to know you and what you want, to make sure she captures your special day perfectly! She is so easy to work with and made taking photos feel so natural and comfortable! The pictures turned out absolutely stunning, way beyond my expectations! My family loved her so much that my sister in law also used her at her wedding too!
Lia is THE BEST! When planning my wedding a lot of advice I received was “you should really like your photographer you spend the WHOLE day with them” now that the wedding is over that is the truest statement! I loved her! She is so sweet and fun. Her pictures are amazing. Our engagement pictures were taken on the coldest day of the year in downtown Detroit! I was sure the pictures were not going to turn out because we were so cold. Lia took her time with us and I LOVE EVERY SINGLE ONE she took that day. She is a miracle worker with the camera. Highly recommended lia Giannotti photography, extremely professional and worth every cent for capturing the most special moments! ❤️
Lia was absolutely fantastic. Her work is GORGEOUS and she was such a joy to work with! Quick response time, very flexible, upbeat and fun. Our bridal party commented on how much they enjoyed her, as well. We loved her ability to capture "the little things" about our big day. We will cherish her photos forever!
Lia was an amazing photographer for our wedding! Not only was she professional and fun to work with, she managed all the different personalities and quirks perfectly! Our photos turned out amazing! I’d recommend her for any event… worth every penny and more!
Lia did the photos for my daughters wedding, along with her engagement photos. She was very professional and captured the true love between my daughter and now son-in-law. She went above and beyond to ensure she captured all the little things that made memories for a life time.
So happy Lia was an important part of our wedding and she did an outstanding job. This was the second marriage for us both and it was small and intimate. Lia captured all of the important parts of our blended families including our grandchildren. Lia is so easy to work with and listens to what you are hoping for and what you want and is able to achieve those wishes. Lia is best!
Lia is one of the kindest and sweetest people we came to know throughout the wedding planning process. She was thorough, communication was flawless, and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture the biggest day of our lives thus far. 4 months later and I'm still absolutely in awe of our photos, they say a photo is worth a million words but her work left us speechless in the best way possible. If you want someone who has precise attention to detail, takes pride in their work, and is a joy to work with, choose Lia 😁
Lia is truly a pleasure to work with! We do not love being the center of attention and she made us feel so comfortable and at ease on our big day. She knew how to make us laugh, smile genuinely, and be in the moment. So thankful for Lia and all she did to ensure our day was simple and stress free. We absolutely love our photos and have them displayed all over our home and have since sent many prints to friends and family. Lia was quick to get us a "sneak peak" of photos after the wedding and was so generous in the number of photos she shared with us. For our next big life event, we will definitely work with Lia again!
I can not express how amazing not only our wedding photos are but how great Lia was to work with. She made us feel comfortable. She even captured moments we didn't even know took place until we saw our photos. We received an amazing sneak peek of about 45 pictures less than a week after the wedding. I could go on and on about Lia and her work!
Lia is simply the best. She was by far our favorite vendor/photographer! My husband and I don't love taking pictures, but she made the entire process so fun and easy. From day 1, we instantly clicked with her. She worked so well with us and is so so talented! All her pictures are breathtaking. We live in Chicago, and she even gave us a free photo shoot while she was on vacation in Chicago! On our wedding day she went above and beyond not only doing an amazing job capturing every moment, but she also would help everyone get ready, ensured we were on time, and worked so well with our vendors - she's just amazing. Even living 5 hours away from her, she's going to continue to be our go to photographer!
There’s so many great things to say about Lia that it’s hard to figure out where to start! She was such a special part of our day and made things so fun and easy. She’s outgoing yet laid back, and quite honestly feels like she’s your best friend. You can tell that photography is her passion - she’s willing to go the extra mile for the picture. The photos themselves were absolutely breathtaking. I have received so many compliments! They are light and airy, yet romantic and timeless. These are pictures that will last a lifetime and don’t have a weird “fad” filter. I cannot recommend her enough!!
Lia was amazing! She was so organized and made sure to connect with us on a couple occasions to ask questions and find out what we were wanting out of our photos. She came prepared and worked her magic. She was fun to work with and our photos are stunning. She truly makes you look great and works your angles :). Highly recommend
Lia is absolutely amazing! Genuinely one of the kindest people we have ever met and she was always willing to work with us and figure out what was best for our engagement/wedding photos despite COVID throwing many wrenches into our original plans. We even had the pleasure of getting to know her husband on our engagement shoot, and he provided excellent comedic relief and tons of smiles. Lia has always been incredibly professional, punctual, responsive, and adaptable (which I cannot stress is the one of the most important qualities you can find in a wedding vendor). And her photos are absolutely gorgeous!!! Her style is bright and realistic, and her photos capture the true moment during which they were taken. We were stunned when we received both our engagement and COVID wedding photos, and couldn’t be happier that we found her to photograph our special day. Lia is a phenomenal human and you won’t regret choosing her!
My husband and I can’t say enough about Lia! We first worked with her when we were in our mutual friend’s wedding. She made us and the entire wedding party very comfortable. So comfortable in fact, she made my now husband (fiancé at the time) want to ask for her card at the end of our friend’s wedding for OUR wedding. Then once we saw our friend’s wedding photos, that was it! We knew she was our first and only photographer that we wanted for our special day.
Once we reached out, she even remembered us and had our date available. It was meant to be. Her packages are reasonably priced (even though it’s hard to put a price on wedding photos since they hold the memories for a very special and fast day).
She did a wonderful job and kept making us laugh for our engagement photoshoot, which was so fun and great for a beginning relationship between a couple and the photographer. She got our engagement photos to us in a very quick time frame- since we used them for our wedding announcements and at our shower. She kept in constant contact with us weeks and days before the wedding. I also loved that she had us make a list of photos at the church we wanted people with. That list kept us moving and kept us on time. The offsite group photos were so fun and I really loved every minute with our wedding party. The new husband and wife ones were so fun too. She truly captured how much love and fun happened that day.
To top it all off, within 3 days of the wedding she had a Facebook sneak peek- that was so great! Then in 8 weeks (as promised) we had all our photos and first draft of our wedding album.
Her timing was great, her photos were great, the experience was great! We look back each year on our anniversary through our wedding album and reminisce on how great that day was. We have such great memories from our great photos. We can’t thank and recommend Lia enough! I give everyone her card I know getting married or wanting pregnancy photos or newborn photos. She truly loves her job and gets to capture amazing moments for people. You defiantly want to give her call.
Working with Lia was an absolute dream. We planned our Detroit wedding from Chicago, so all meetings were over the phone. Lia's passion oozed through and we could just tell that she would treat our wedding as if it was the most important event she's ever photographed.
Bryan and I didn't actually meet Lia in person until our Chicago engagement session...which we were really nervous about. We had never taken professional photos together and were worried about feeling awkward or looking overly posed. Neither of those things happened. Lia brought her husband along to help, and the entire engagement session was incredibly comfortable. We got to experience our city in a whole new light and laughed A LOT along the way.
On our wedding day, Lia worked seamlessly with our videographer duo, even though they had just met that morning. They were able to coordinate shots so that everyone got what they needed without ruining the moment.
Lia flexed her Detroit-scene experience and captured the perfect blend of composed and casual for our bridal party. Our guests commented on the friendliness of her assistant and second shooter, and many of them had images printed out even before Bryan and I did!
Lia and her team went above and beyond to capture our wedding day! She was extremely organized leading up to the wedding; she made sure we thought of all the little details and the most important pieces of the day we hoped she would capture. Even though we lived out-of-state and didn't meet her in person until the day of the wedding, we knew through our phone calls that she would be a perfect fit and that she would make us comfortable. Lia truly has an eye for getting great shots - we picked her based on her stunning candid shots on her website and that she can capture the energy of the day. Only a few days after the wedding, she already had sneak peek photos available, and she had our entire gallery of 1,000+ pictures ready for us in record time. She's been so helpful with any and all requests we've had, including recommending a videographer and helping us with vendors. We would hire her again 10/10! Thanks again, Lia!!!
From start to finish, Lia was fantastic to work with. At the beginning of our process, initial conversations with Lia were extremely informative and professional. She has a great balance of understanding to our style, while making suggestions/recommendations based on her experience. As we got closer to the wedding, Lia was on top of logistics. She was very thorough with us to make sure we were capturing all important aspects of our day.
Days leading up to our wedding, COVID-19 had just reached Michigan which brought uncertainties to our wedding. Lia checked in with us almost daily not only giving us assurance that her and her assistants would be there, but also offering lots of positive and encouraging words. This was so appreciated given our high level of stress.
The day of the wedding, Lia and her team could not have been more organized. They were all extremely professional and very calm, which helped the day go smoothly. It felt completely effortless to us and made us feel at ease, which allowed us to fully enjoy our first look, bridal party photo session, and family formals. While we have not yet received our full portfolio of photos, we are thrilled with the sneak peaks we've seen!! Lia was able to capture us in both formal poses but also in more candid shots, which was what we had originally discussed.
In addition to the level of professionalism we experienced during the process and the day of the wedding, we truly enjoyed the relationship we built with Lia and valued the level of support and reassurance she provided to us.
Lia not only took stunning photos of our wedding day, but I truly cannot imagine our day without her there. She was there to help out in other ways when needed and asked me how I was doing throughout the day which I really appreciated her for! I feel blessed to have had someone as caring and talented as Lia photograph our day!
Amazing. This is the second time I’ve been able to work with Lia and this time for my wedding day. She was wonderful and so was her assistant. I was very happy with our photos! Thank you for coming all the way to Howell to capture our special day!!!
Like any bride, I was unsure of where to look to find the best photographer for my wedding. My sister-in-law mentioned Lia who had shot their family photos a few years prior. She kept telling me how much she loved Lia's work because the photos looked bright and cheery even though it was a gloomy, rainy day. As soon as I pulled up Lia's website and started looking through her photos, I was certain I wanted her to be our photographer. In fact, my fiancé and I had almost booked a different photographer, but after comparing the two, there was no question Lia's work was superior. And on top of her professional, high-end photos, Lia is so very pleasant to be around. She is very experienced which made us feel comfortable being in front of the camera. We are SO very happy with our wedding photos. She captured every special moment and more. Do not hesitate to book her. You won't regret it!
Lia photographed our wedding in October and left us with nothing but positive things to say! She was so helpful in the weeks and months leading up to the wedding, helping us plan out the schedule of our day and making sure we accounted for all the photos we wanted. She is kind, detail-oriented, extremely responsive, and professional all around. Lia was an especially calming presence on our wedding day and never left us wondering if we were in good hands. She sent us a "sneak peek" of wedding photos to share on social media just a few days after the wedding, and a very large gallery 8 weeks later, both of which could not have turned out better. Her willingness to accommodate and communicate while never losing her positive attitude made her one of the best parts of our wedding, and we would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing wedding photographer!
Lia photographed our wedding and engagement photos. We could not be more happy with the results. Lia made me (and my husband!) look absolutely gorgeous in every photo. If I had a question, or issue, she responded to every email promptly. I never had to wait more than a few hours for a response from her. Sometimes her replies were almost instant. Prior to our wedding, I compiled a list of all of the photos I wanted to capture on the big day, she studied it, and the week before our wedding, planned out to the minute what would happen during our photo sessions. She had a plan in place for how she would get the photos and then followed it. At the same time, she was very flexible as I added a few extra photo requests on the day of our wedding.
The day after our wedding, she shared 50 photos as a sneak peak for me to share on social media and with friends or family that were not able to attend the wedding.
Her contract stated that final photos would be ready within 8 weeks, and she promptly delivered the final photos within that time frame -- which was much faster than some of my friends received their photos.
The end result was amazing! These photos are captured our day perfectly. As I sat looking at them, I started to cry a little because I remembered these moments, I remembered standing there and feeling all the feels :) I will have these memories for a lifetime because of Lia!
I will continue to use Lia for my photography needs and I recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing photographer! She is worth every single penny!
Lia has done our engagement, wedding, maternity, baby milestone, and family photos. She is professional, kind, and goes above and beyond. She is detail oriented and makes sure that as a client you get what you want for photos.
She helped me set up the timeline for my wedding day and worked seemlessly with my other vendors. Our on location pictures for our engagement and wedding were stunning. She captures modern, candid, and classic pictures flawlessly.
I am so happy I chose Lia to capture my lifestyle biggest milestones!
Lia’s work is amazing! She captured our day perfectly. Lia is so lovely to work with. I’m sooo thankful for our beautiful beautiful photos!
Working with Lia was a dream! Her passion for photography is so evident and she pays great attention to the details. We could not be happier with our pictures, which we got quickly after our wedding. Lia has the most calming energy which was so helpful on our wedding day. She makes you feel at ease so she can get genuine smiles and emotions in her pictures. She was flexible and made changes based on our needs and the timeline. Her co-shooter, Heather, was energetic, fun, and talented as well. Not only did she help and guide us through wedding photography, but she also gave us guidance on other aspects of our wedding—makeup and hair recommendations, reviewing the day of timeline, etc. She was always willing to set up a phone call or video chat to touch base as we got closer to our wedding day. I could not imagine our wedding day without her!
Lia is friendly, funny, energetic and has a great sense of humor. I loved her the instant I met her and knew that she was going to do an awesome job for our wedding. She is easy to work with and has the patience of a saint while we were trying to round up our family members for group photos. The photos are spectacular and it was so hard to choose which one we liked best as she took over 600 photos! We had a laid back lake wedding in August of 2017 and Lia was able to capture the exact essence of the wedding. I highly recommend Lia and can't wait to ask her to do my son's senior photos in a few years!
Lia is the best!!!! Her beautiful photographs only mirror her lovely demeanor and kindness when working with her clients. If you are looking for the perfect blend of candid and traditional photos then look no further! She and her assistant Nina were a dream to work with, always cognizant of our wishes for our photos. We had the best time with them and look forward to keeping in touch. We could not have wished for a better experience!! Take a look at her website and you too will fall in love with Lia's photographs.
