· Quality of Service: 4 - We were very happy with the collection of photos and our wedding videos. We did have to ask for some of our wedding footage, like the getting ready and r...
aw first look footage, after receiving the initial USB drive. Some of the photos had an odd filter on them that we did not care for, but it was only a small percentage of the photos.
· Responsiveness: 4 - Life Gallery Studio was very quick to respond when we initially reached out and throughout the entire wedding planning process. I gave a 4 because we had not heard from our assigned photographer or videographer until about a week before the wedding. I would have liked to start communication with the photographer and videographer about a month out from the wedding instead of the week before.
· Professionalism: 5 - Both Brian and Rob were extremely professional and helped keep us on schedule as best as possible. Any schedule mishaps were most likely due to my unreasonable timeline expectations. Brian and Rob were both great to work with and handled all of my demanding asks like champs. They captured our day very candidly, as we asked.
· Value: 4 - Overall, the price we paid for the services vs the content we received was very positive and would recommend Life Gallery Studio to other couples.
Comments: I did feel a bit blindsided by the fact that we did not get to choose our photographer and videographer. In my initial meeting with Scott, I was informed that we would get to choose these individuals. Instead, we filled out a survey to indicate our photography style preference to Life Gallery, and from there, our photographer and videographer were assigned to us based on our responses. I do not consider this as us choosing our photographer and videographer. I recommend being more honest about the photographer and videographer assigning process with future clients.

We chose Life Gallery Studio based on their photography style and based on the fact that their packages fit our pre-established budget. Had I read the reviews closer, I probably wo...
uld've realized ahead of time that they do contract out to other photographers, which is totally fine - I was just a little surprised, but that's on me. We were put in touch with our assigned photographer, Rob, about a week before our wedding. Before that, we had communicated via phone and email with Scott, who is extremely responsive. Rob was amazing on the day of our wedding! He was always exactly where he needed to be and captured our day beautifully. He was extremely efficient in staging the group photos and gave us plenty of posing pointers (per our request; we have no idea what we're doing when it comes to posing :) ). He captured all of our requested photos and captured a lot of fantastic candid moments. We received the link to our online photo album of almost 800 photos under 3 weeks after our wedding date, and we have so many great shots to choose from.
Any questions?

We have a beautiful highlight reel of the day and, our entire religious ceremonies, speeches, first dance, and more taped completely.

Could not have asked for a better company to work with. Firstly, their quality for their price is a win win. They walked my husband and I through every step of the process, stayed ...
in contact with us which truly helped comfort and guide us, and answered all of our questions immediately. They most definitely understand customer service and they paired us with the most wonderful photographer, Jonathan. Even our guests afterwards commented on how fun and personable he was. He was around enough to get to know him, but kindly and respectfully, was not noticeable or in the way. Sorry, not sure how to say that in a nice way. He also made us extremely comfortable when I am someone who is not comfortable with taking photos. The variety of photos we received were immense and fantastic. It was great to be able to have so much to choose from to make sure everyone was happy with them. A huge bonus for us was being able to have all of the photos digitally, while still having the service of paying for incredibly well priced albums and printed photos. Would highly recommend and honestly already have to our friends.

was a little disappointed that, despite having two photographers for the day, we did not get any photos of our guests at cocktail hour. After the wedding day I was told by several people in my wedding party/family that one of the photographers chose to partake in the hors d’oeuvres instead of photographing our guests doing so (I was too preoccupied to notice, myself). There were a few minor things I would change in some of the photos I received (spreading out my train, mentioning to my mother about an errant bra strap, etc) but the overall experience was a good one! I honestly enjoyed working with everyone and the overwhelming majority of my photos are lovely.

We had a great time working with Scott of Life Gallery Studio. His prices are reasonable and our photos turned out great!
Though our wedding day turned rainy before the ceremony, ...
our photographer adapted and gave us great shots from inside our venue! He had a keen eye to line us up at our venue in a beautiful balcony for pre-ceremony shots.
He also had time to get photos of each guest table during our reception - a treasured shot which we will enjoy looking at for years to come! He also got great candids of our dance, father/daughter and mother/son as well as the free dancing after dinner.
Thank you Life Gallery Studio!

To say we were ecstatic about how our pictures both the engagement and wedding is an understatement- we absolutely loved them!! But what is more important, at least to me, is how ...
comfortable I felt with the entire picture taking process and that is 100% due to our photographer Jonathon who made sure to listen to my ideas and my personal hesitation with having my picture taken and it turn it into an AWESOME experience. He went above and beyond on the wedding day as well- one it was hot and humid and he was a trooper!! Second he knew all the tricks of the trade from a groomsmen tie disaster to bustling of my dress!! Come on what guy knows how to do that???!!!
Finally I also appreciate how quickly the pictures were made available to us- very quick turnaround and the finished product was amazing.
Thank you again, we are very happy we chose Life Gallery Studio.

lling to work with us when we had a change of heart about our venue, which prompted us to move our date by a day. Scott was always available by phone or email to answer all of our questions, which gave us so much peace of mind. We had a doubt about only having one photographer on the day of. Scott let us know that one photographer would be plenty. And he was right...it is good to know that this business looks out for their clients. We had not met our photographer until the day of our wedding, but our picture profile was matched with her photography style. We set up a call to discuss all the details of our wedding a week before and Dana was able to capture all of the moments we asked for (AND MORE). We are absolutely ecstatic about how our wedding pictures came out and cannot get enough of viewing them. Scott and Dana thank you so much for capturing the best moments of our special day.

My daughter got married in May at Old House Vineyards in Culpeper, VA. After reading many positives reviews, I decided to contact Life Gallery and made arrangements with Scott. H...
e was very enthusiastic and organized. This being my first wedding to plan, he made it very easy. Jonathan was our photographer who was outstanding. My daughter and our whole family loved him. His positive attitude, professionalism and great sense of humor made our day. When we arrived at the farmhouse, he had everything set and ready. He already had photos of her gown and flowers completed. I have never seen such organization and comfortable flow of photos being taken. He made us all very comfortable and the time passed by quickly. We received our photos within two weeks and were absolutely gorgeous. Jonathan followed the photo preference outline my daughter submitted, and they had several conversations before the big day to ensure he got every shot they wanted. Jonathan went out of his way to ensure we were all included. During the reception, you did not even know he was there and the photos were phenomenal. Once you contact Scott at Life Gallery, you will look no further. I checked several other photographers before contacting them, and they win hands down. Good luck in your wedding plans. Their service will be your first and last stop, and you will be happy with their service.

We were happy with the quality of the photos and the fast turn around, however touch ups cost extra to the tune of 25$ per photo. After spending over $1300 one would expect that to...
be included. So basically for the price you get several hundred photos taken with the same background at least in our case, and the service of a photographer. Nothing else is included. I was very disappointed with the lack of changing of background areas. We were at historic site and it would have been nice to have some of the buildings in the photos but instead we were given photos in front of a green space. There was a Pond that could have been used as a really nice backdrop as there was a bridge there but that was not even entertained. Slightly disappointed. Just be sure to ask the right questions so you get what you’re looking for.

My husband and I had an AMAZING experience with Jonathan as our photographer for our wedding!!! He was such a joy to work with. I knew right away that I was going to get along with...
him, our personalities just meshed so well. He wasn't imposing in any way and he was patient when going through my "must have" list of family photos. He was so much fun to work with! And because of that it made taking the staged photos so much more fun! <3 Randy was our videographer for the day and he was a total sweetheart! He managed to stay almost invisible, which to me seems like what a good videographer should be...you don't want that camera all up in your face all night long, you want it to look genuine and real, and with his technique I'm fully confident it will be! Both were great! Being in contact with Scott throughout the whole process with effortless and he was very patient with all my questions and concerns that I had, and oh so very helpful with everything!! It took slightly over a week for us to get our photos back from Jonathan and we absolutely LOVE them! Can't wait for the video from Randy!! Definitely recommend them as a team for anyone looking for a photographer/videographer package for their wedding or event coming up!!! We were so happy and please with everything about them!!! <3

Life Studio was a pleasure to work with for our wedding photos. Owner Scott was able to answer all of our questions and alleviate all our fears about what happens if our photograph...
er just ends up not being able to make it (being a larger studio they have backups and even owner Scott will come out if necessary) Before we signed a contract, we had spoken with Mike who would be taking our photos on the day of the wedding. Mike was fantastic. He understood we were looking for more photo journalism style than posed photos – my husband and I understand we both take bad posed photos. Life Studio allows you to pay via credit card without incurring an additional fee. Mike arrived on time and worked with us as we moved throughout the day and to the different locations. He even braved the rain to get us outdoor newlywed photos getting quite wet himself. But I will say the photos are beautiful. I am so happy with everything – the before shots, the ceremony shots, the newlywed shots, and the reception shots. Just perfect. And he had no issue with my family and friends running around taking photos themselves. Scott worked with us after the wedding as it took about 2 weeks to edit all 927 photos and send us over the link to our portfolio. He was able to advise us on obtaining the photo copies digitally and answered all our questions about albums and prints. Overall our experience with Life Studio was simply perfect. We highly recommend them.

Essentially, you get to look through tons of their photos online once you book with them, choose your favorites, and based on your favorites, they pick a photographer for you that matches your favorite style of photo. We got Mike for our main photographer and Michelle for our secondary... both were great! They took tons of pictures of both stationary items and decorations as well as wonderful action shots of guests dancing, etc. We just received our pictures, and got around 1600 pictures! They are of many different styles, with several black and white as well. We feel that everything we wanted to get pictures of, we have. They made sure to take the specific photos we requested. They were there when you wanted them and in the background when you didn't, which is great. Overall, great to work with, and I got my pictures within about 10 days, which is wonderful!

Couldn't have been happier!! Jonathan was the photographer for our wedding and he was incredible. I heard so many compliments from our guests about "our photographer:" Not only ...
were the photos AMAZING but he was extremely helpful to me during our entire ceremony (start to finish). If I needed help with my veil, a quick stitch, a bobby pin, etc., Jonathan was the first one there to provide what I needed. He captured every picture we wanted. If I ever needed to hire a photographer again there's no doubt I would contact Life Gallery Studio and ask for Jonathan.

We are so thrilled that we booked Life Gallery Photo for our Wedding! Mike was our photographer and was a true artist and professional ensuring he asked about photos we wanted and...
offering suggestions as well. The communication up front was stellar! He truly made the day a special one and I'm so happy that we found Life Gallery!

Life Gallery Studio was so great to work with. Scott responded to emails very quickly, was always kind when answering my 100 different questions, he gave us multiple different opti...
ons and was very professional. We had Mike and Michelle as our photographers and they did amazing work! We received our pictures in a week and they are all so perfect. They had great ideas and captured so many more photos than I even thought possible. We also hired videographers through life gallery and they were kind and always in the background taking videos. We haven't gotten out video yet but I am very excited to see how it turned out. I have no doubt it'll be wonderful. The price was great as well, Scott worked with us and we got a great deal. Overall, my husband and I are very happy with our decision to hire Life Gallery Studio to capture our special day.

Michelle photographed my wedding in Frederick, MD last May. I'm late reviewing because we moved and changed jobs shortly after so it's been busy but with our anniversary coming up ...
I'm going through our photos again and I had to take a moment to say not only how great the pictures came out but also how lovely and kind Michelle was to work with. We had a small wedding, outdoors - and it rained and it was fantastic anyway. She worked with my family and guests without any awkwardness and helped calm my weather nerves on top of it all. I found Life Gallery last year at a point when I had about given up on being able to afford a photographer at all and I could not be more pleased - their rates are within reach for couples on a budget like we were and they did a great job. I was able to customize my package to provide what was important to us (photos all night) and leave aside extras like an album that weren't in the cards at the time with an option to go back and buy one later. On top of all that I don't think it was even two weeks that went by before I had my pictures. Thank you son much, Michelle!
