LightMaster Studios

We feel like we were totally ripped off and scammed by LightMaster Studios. Our package included light editing, which can be seen in maybe 5-10 pictures. Most of our photos look like they were taken with an iPhone and they didn’t edit out their own gear seen in photos. Despite sending a list of pictures we wanted, we had to remind Shawn what needed done multiple times (family pictures weren’t started until he was about to leave for the night). He was seen outside playing with their drone while pictures could have been taken (girls getting ready), and we don’t even have the pictures/video he took. We were told 4-6 weeks to receive pictures, so at around 3 weeks I asked for 1 preview picture and was told no. We waited almost 7 weeks for our pictures, which I don’t understand, because there was hardly anything done to them. The only reason this review isn’t one star is because the communication was good and they were both friendly. They offered 20% of our money back, or to touch up 25/800 of the pictures (which should have already been done). This was a once in a lifetime event that we can’t redo, please don’t make the mistake we did.

re our special day. Shawn was very accommodating and did the perfect impression of Elmo to make my 1 year old nephew laugh during pictures! If you are looking for a photographer in the Poconos region, look no further than LightMaster Studios. Highly recommend!

, concern, and desire from start to finish. The questionnaire was thorough and Carrie called shortly after to discuss in detail my vision for my wedding. I had a rooftop wedding overlooking the Baltimore Harbor at sunset and the golden hour photos we took were of course my favorite ❤️! The level of professionalism from start to finish was superb and during the event I knew they were there but they were not obtrusive. This provided wonderful candid shots during our reception. Everything was so wonderful, I am trying to figure out what event I can plan next for them to come on shoot...thinking some family portraits. Thank you Shaun and Carrie!

reasoning behind certain poses or angles when I was worried about looking silly. They were beyond patient and understanding and overall it was a wonderful experience. I would absolutely recommend choosing them as your photographer! Update: The wedding photos far exceeded my expectations!! I'm blown away by how amazing they came out. Thank you so so much, Carrie and Shawn. To anyone considering LightMaster Studios, just do it! The photographers went above and beyond to give us the most amazing pictures. One of them even laid in a puddle for an angle! I seriously cannot overstate how wonderful each person was to work with. Even the wedding guests commented afterwards how wonderful they were. Thank you all so so much for capturing our day ♡♡♡

ble and made us feel comfortable. He was also very professional and listened to what we wanted in our photos. Scheduling was simple, Carrie was very friendly in her commutations and responded quickly to any questions we had along the way. We love how all our photos and video came out in the end and enjoyed sharing them with family and friends. Overall wonderful experience!

rfect photography package that will allow us to relive our special day forever!

when answering emails and questions. Shawn takes the most amazing pictures and captures the most beautiful moments and helps guide you. Our wedding pictures came out absolutely phenomenal and I am speechless to say the least. Working with shawn is like working with a family friend with the professionalism of doing his work. I am so grateful to have found lightmaster studios to capture the most important day of my life! Thank you so much Shawn and Carrie for everything! You guys are amazing and I cant wait to have a reason to work with you guys again! If you are looking to book a photographer LightMaster Studios is the way to go! (P.s.There are SO many more amazing pictures that I wish I could add here but these are just a few!)

alk to, full of helpful tips and suggestions, and always willing to work with your specific needs. I was having so much trouble figuring out which photographers to choose at first. We went through dozens and dozens of galleries trying to pick the best ones and just couldn't narrow it down. As soon as I spoke with Carrie over the phone, my decision was made. She made me feel so relaxed and confident that they would help me to capture the wedding of my dreams! As an extremely organized person that often has trouble handing the working-out-details role to someone else, Carrie was the first person I spoke to that I had complete faith in to get the job done just as I envisioned it! Our wedding day isn't for several months, but Shawn already completed a beautiful engagement session for us, and we are absolutely in love with the results! My fiance and I both feel a little awkward trying to pose for photos, but Shawn was absolutely amazing getting us to look natural and feel more at ease in front of the camera! I can't say enough good things about LightMaster. If you can't figure out who to book, look no further!

the shoots, they helped us to relax and have a blast...not just go through the motions. We truly enjoyed ourselves and were sad when it ended. Most importantly, the product is incredible. The photos are breathtaking and we feel that our love really shines through on both the stills and the video. We would highly recommend Lightmaster!

ts with them, and let me tell you!! The customer service from both carrie and shawn are like no other, the amount of kindness and helpfulness goes beyond what you expect, they always get back to your emails in such a timely manner and will do everything they can to work with you, as for the pictures they are always PHENOMENAL! Shawn really works with you and guides you while shooting, he knows all the right places and how to capture all the love and the good lighting in every picture, when I first saw my engagement pictures I was in complete shock and awe with how beautiful they came out, with our package that we chose, we got to chose 10 engagement photos out of I dont remember how many and it was such a difficult decision because of how amazing each and every photo was, but of course theres always that option to buy the extras if you really needed too (which you probably would because they're just that beautiful). I cannot wait till our big day, because I know for a fact we booked with the best! Thank you Shawn and Carrie for being the best!

who makes magic, but you also want to search for someone who will make you and your guests feel comfortable! Carrie and Shawn at LightMaster Studios put my husband and I at ease from the start. They took the time to get to know and understand us before they shot our big day (twice), they never forced anything that didn't work, and they were as committed to our guests as we were. To give you an example, on the day of our reception, I was busting out my corniest dance moves in the middle of the floor. I turned and peeked over my right shoulder and saw Shawn grooving out too, and he was taking shots as he was working his way through the dance floor. (We will not talk about the fact that his moves were better than mine). The pictures were stunning, and they've allowed us to revisit our day through the perspective of our guests. What our guests remember, however, is how fun and nonintrusive Shawn was. You can tell when someone loves what they do, and that is the case with Carrie and Shawn--always. It's also worth noting that due to the pandemic, my husband and I had to postpone our reception. Carrie and Shawn worked with us with such grace, patience, and understanding. I never, for one moment, felt like "another business deal" to them as other vendors had made me feel. They kept frequent communication with us throughout the waiting period, and they often checked in, just to see how we were doing. It's these seemingly little touches that went a long way in terms of reassuring us. When our reception day finally came--the first people I saw at the venue were Carrie and Shawn. To be honest, I focused not on what they were doing with their cameras. Instead I focused on their genuine support and excitement for us. That truly is part of the "LightMaster Magic". It's not just about angles and clicks. It's also about compassion, energy, and thoughtfulness. That's precisely why when we received our digital image portals, we noticed right away that what filled them were much more than pictures. LightMaster Studios captured our narrative and a dream--something we will truly treasure forever.

know how to make everyone (even picture haters) feel comfortable and get great images. They are on time and always professional. I would 100% recommend them and definitely use them for all future photgrapher needs!

during a most challenging time of planning a wedding during the Covid 19 pandemic. Shawn, who provided the photography at my wedding was the absolute consummate professional with a passion for his profession. He made a rainy day turn into one with showers of blessings as he took great shots inside the venue, and as soon as weather permitted, whisked us outside to get some great outside pictures. I was delighted when I received my wedding picture gallery and savored each moment and memory as I clicked through the pictures. I would definitely recommend LightMaster Studios. Sheila J B - A Happy Bride!!

delivered stunning photos that we will treasure forever! Best wedding Vendor that we worked with, by far!!
