Lily & Lime did a great job with our wedding. My wife and I are so happy with the photos, they all came out so great. Our photographer, Cherie, was amazing the entire day too.

Working with Lily and Lime and our photographer was by far the easiest facet of our wedding to coordinate. They made the whole process so easy and their pricing was very fair. We loved how our pictures turned out and our photographer, Anna, was a joy to have around and was great at coordinating all of us. Working with them felt like one less thing to stress about.

Lily and Lime made it so easy to book your photographer and build your photo schedule for the day! Our photographer, Stephanie, did a great job on our wedding day with taking lots of photos, posing us lots of different ways, and keeping things enjoyable with her upbeat personality! I would recommend them! The only thing was it took about 2 months to get our photos back so expect a longer wait for pictures.

Our big day was a breeze because of lily and lime. Very professional. Our photographer was the best. We couldn’t have had a better experience.
I really loved working with Lily & Lime for my engagement photos and wedding! Our photographer, Linda, was amazing! She was easy to communicate with and helped us recreate our inspo-photos for the wedding day! They got the photos back to us within a month of our wedding, and included all the raw footage too to look through for fun!

Hi Jing, thanks for sharing your positive experience with Gina and our customer service. We're glad to have been accommodating despite the changes in your wedding date.
Our photographer was absolutely amazing and had great energy! She was able to get all the shots we wanted and more. Taking pictures with her was so much fun and she made everyone feel comfortable, even the people in our wedding party who are not used to to be in the center of attention.
The pictures also came out great! It was so worth it and I would definitely recommend Lily & Lime for your wedding!

Every part of the experience was wonderful. Lily & Lime made my overall experience less stressful and very organized. The price was worth the quality of photos and number of photos. We ended up have over a 1,000 photos and all where beautiful and caught every detail of our wedding. I would recommend them for any special event.

We had a great experience with Lily and Lime for our wedding on 6/03/23. Our photos and video turned out great. They were on time and really captured our vision. We had quick turn around time for receiving our photos and videos as well. Would definitely recommend them to others.
Response from the Vendor on 09/21/2023
Hi Mary, we're glad you had a great experience with us and that you loved your photos and video. Thank you for recommending us!
Have only good things to say about Lily and Lime. Had 2 photographers and 1 videographer for our wedding on 6/3/23 and they were all very professional. Lily and Lime helped keep things on track for our wedding so that was great as well!
Response from the Vendor on 09/12/2023
Hi Scott, we appreciate your positive feedback about our professionalism and ease of communication. It's wonderful to hear about your experience.
We LOVED working with Lily & Lime for our special day. Our photographer was amazing, organized and so nice to work with. We loved how all of our pictures turned out and couldn't be happier with our experience. Nin was the BEST!
Response from the Vendor on 09/01/2023
Hi Rachel, we're delighted to hear that you loved working with us! It's fantastic that your photographer, Nin, was amazing and organized. We're glad you're happy with the pictures and your experience. Thank you for sharing your feedback.
We enjoyed our videography services! From the time I reached out for info, Kiara was welcoming, informative, & patient. She supported me & I was able to end the call by making a decision. Not only that, I was to use a promo code.
Leading up to our wedding, Gigi was very communicative. She asked important questions I didn’t think of, which was helpful in my preparation process. She then connected with our wedding coordinator, dj, & photographer. She even came to our rehearsal to offer guidance. We were her last wedding of the season, so she made sure to make it memorable.
Finally, Nora has been patient & helpful during the editing process. I can’t wait to see the final results after our edits have been made.
I gave 4 instead of 5 stars because we got our highlight video at the same time as our main video & since I wanted to edit both, we still can’t share the highlight video. It would’ve been nice to have this maybe a month (2 max) after our wedding to give a tease of what to look forward to.
I highly recommend Lily & Lime!
Response from the Vendor on 05/12/2023

We used this company for our wedding, and this is the biggest regret from our wedding day. I know the saying is true, you get what you pay for but with so many good reviews I figured we found the diamond in the rough. Unfortunately, not.
Long story short the photographer “lost” a big portion of our photos. The portion that included the only family and sibling photos as well as all the individual bridesmaid/groomsmen photos we had from the day.
After noticing they were missing, we inquired and were strung along for months being told they were still being processed and we’d have them soon. After 3+ months of back and forth we finally received an apology and were offered a free photo book as a solution.
Now we are left without any photos with our siblings, or individual photos with our wedding party and can never get this day or these photos back.
Location: Chicago Suburbs
Date: September 2021
Its been a MONTH and still haven't received a single photo.
Wish I would have paid attention to the turnaround time... I got the basic package 8hrs/1 photographer. I am sorry but a 6-8 week turnaround time is unbelievable especially when the photos is the only thing you really have to look back on.
I just called and sat on the phone for over 20 mins with no answer... wondering if Ill ever receive a photo from this company.
Our photographers were amazing; they listened to all of our requests and gave us great suggestions for shots. Even though it was POURING down rain we had over 3,000 photos to choose from :) We were lucky enough to be able to have a lead and associate photographer whom worked really well together. Our videographer was phenomenal as well! Customer service was readily available every step of the way and were quick to answer any questions or concerns I had. The platform to plan day of details helped me get organized and allowed me to create a schedule that everyone was able to follow :)

Hey Jamie, it is indeed a pleasure knowing that you had a great time working with our team and talents! We appreciate your love and kind words! We are happy to hear that you loved the photos from your big day! Best wishes to both of you!
Lily and Lime Photography and videography was more than we could have hoped for. Our wedding was in another state than we live and not many family/friends had recommendations for local photographers in the area of our event. Enter Lily & Lime. We took a chance on an online ad and fell in love with what we saw. The process of selecting a photographer was so easy and we loved getting to look at available photographers portfolios. Looking at portfolios knowing they were available for our date was so helpful! When our wedding plans changed two weeks out from our date, they were extremely accommodating giving us an open postponement with no added fee. Then, when we had our new plans they switched things with no problem, and then when our plans had to change for a THIRD time they happily changed our event location, meaning hiring new photographers and videographer. They even gave us credit for purchasing photos because we had already paid a travel fee that no longer was needed. We are still trying to pick our photos to print because we love so many of them! Our videographer was absolutely amazing too; he took our desire for candid moments to heart and captured some really fantastic film. Even watching our highlight video gave me tears of joy. We HIGHLY recommend this company !
Response from the Vendor on 10/27/2021
Hey Claire, thanks for choosing us and making us a part of your big day! The pleasure was all ours! We are glad to hear that you had a fantastic experience with our team and videographer! Thanks for all the love and support!
Wonderful to work with! We booked Lily & Lime back in 2019 before the pandemic, and we worked with them for two years until we were able to get married in 2021. Throughout the entire process their support, Nick in particular, was prompt, professional, and flexible.
Day of we had two photographers and one videographer. Robert, the lead, directed the event with style, and the resulting pictures really show it! They took full advantage of the venue to capture some unique shots rather than just going through the motions. It really felt as though our day was special to them, too.
Response from the Vendor on 09/27/2021
Hey Kat, we are glad that we were able to make your wedding day a memorable celebration! Thanks for the big shout-out to Nick and Robert! Best wishes to both of you!
This review is a long time coming. Last year July 11 2020 I had the pleasure of having Gabriel as our videographer and Troy as our photographer. They were amazing and that is an understatement! They went above and beyond to make sure I was ok and even helped with adjusting my veil on my head, cutting off the price tag on my wedding dress (lol), and pouring champagne for my bridesmaids and I. They were super friendly and when we were finally able to get our frames back from our wedding day…. I cried. The pictures came out so beautiful (despite the fact that I hated my makeup that day). Gabriel and Troy were able to capture all the beauty from our special day. Our wedding was originally suppose to be 120 guest and two different locations. But due to Covid :( we could only have about 24 guest all immediate family and a small ceremony in one location. Despite that they made me feel like I was getting married at the Taj Mahal! Lol They said such kind words to me and made me feel both beautiful and amazing on my wedding day. I wish they could see this because I always wanted to let them know how much I appreciated them !!!

This review is specifically Heidi. While I can't speak for the other photographers at Lily and Lime, Heidi was everything we hoped for in a photographer! She was easy to work with, friendly, flexible, and offered helpful direction. The lighting changed a lot throughout the afternoon due to unexpected weather changes, and she was totally up for the challenge. Also, our wedding was very small and casual due to COVID, and we didn't have a coordinator. Although it really wasn't her job, Heidi took initiative to keep the schedule on track and ensure we captured all the moments we wanted on camera before her time was up. She went above and beyond. The photos came out perfectly and we are so happy with them! Thank you, Heidi.
Response from the Vendor on 08/10/2021
Hey Nadezh, it gives us immense satisfaction and happiness knowing that Heidi could make your wedding day a memorable experience and that you loved all the photos captured by her! It was indeed a pleasure for us to document your wedding day! Be...

Lily and Lime was great to work with! We had a (somewhat) tight budget, however they into our budget perfectly without sacrificing skill level. Even though COVID and the possibility of changing venues, Lily and Lime worked with us to make it all work out. We have beautiful pictures and video from our special day and I am so grateful!

As it turns out, planning our own wedding was A TON of work! When it came to vendors, I didn't even want to have to think about a thing. Working with Lily & Lime was so easy and stress free from the lead up to the day of and the follow up. Our photographer, Amanda S., did a great job wrangling our families together for group shots and also managed to step back to candidly capture special moments. The photos are such a blast to go through to remind us of all the fun we had. I'd highly recommend Lily & Lime to anyone looking for a photography company that's both affordable and easy to work with.

s again for your great recommendations!
We had a very small wedding, but still wanted to have a professional photographer. Lily & Lime had affordable packages that fit our need. Our photographer Ania was awesome! Fun, understanding, and flexible.
We received our photos quick and loved the-living the day!
Response from the Vendor on 11/02/2020
Hey Bailey! Thanks for sharing your satisfying experience with us. It is great to know that you loved our work and the photos that turned out as lovely as you imagined them to be!
Lily and Lime has the best customer service team that answers any of all of your questions extremely fast! The prices were great for the quality of photos. The only downside is that you cannot talk to your photographer until one week before your wedding. I had a friendly photographer that captured everything I wanted.
Response from the Vendor on 10/14/2020
Hey Allie! It was amazing working with you. We loved how you liked your wedding pictures. We also loved working with you. Sending your way bucketful of warm wishes on embarking on the most beautiful journey of your life as newlyweds!
Lily & Lime is a great photography company. Their online design is very convenient and user friendly, allowing you to choose the best services for your needs without being locked into an expensive package. The company does a great job communicating and was very flexible with changes and requests. Overall they are a very affordable business with high quality results.
Response from the Vendor on 09/29/2020
Thanks a ton, Tori for this overwhelming shout out to our creative team. It is always an outstanding feeling to serve brides with the amazing wedding pictures they would love to cherish as a keepsake for a lifetime.
I think my review was deleted which should tell you a little bit about the company.
I'll just say, we were a queer couple with queer relatives and we attempted to make sure all our vendors were okay with that and would be respectful. Our photographer was NOT queer friendly.
If you are part of the LGBTQ family, you may want to look elsewhere.
Response from the Vendor on 06/10/2020
Hi Megan, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re sorry your day fell short of the expectations to which we hold talent and team members. Our team of employees and talent members are strong LGBTQIA supporters, and ...
many, part of the community themselves. We’d love to talk with you about this further and ask that you please reach out to us directly when you have a moment.
We are literally so pleased with this company!!! As a professional photographer myself—who went to photography school, I can tell you their work is professional! Our photographer Anna, did a phenomenal job with all of our photos. & Our Videographer Matt captured the entire day for us just beautifully! Our photos and videos are stunning. Thank you SO much Lily & Lime. They did not disappoint!
Response from the Vendor on 04/03/2020
Pleasure is all ours, Heather! Ana and Matt loved capturing your day and are grateful that you chose them for it. Thanks for all your kind words, they mean so much to us!
Lily & Lime was one of the best choices we made for our January wedding. Our photographer, Cherie, and the customer service rep, Chelsea, were wonderful to work with. I was nervous about what our experience would be simply because their prices are incredibly reasonable compared to all of the other photography companies I researched. My nervousness faded as I realized how detailed the planning documents were (without being overwhelming), and how quick and thorough customer service was in responding to any questions I had. We looked through the photographer's portfolios online and had trouble choosing because all of the photos were gorgeous! We went with Cherie because we loved her style of photos and she had amazing reviews especially about how comfortable she made her clients feel, and let me tell you, she did not disappoint! My husband and I are awkward posing for pictures, but you would never know it from the beautiful photos Cherie was able to capture. I would 100% recommend Lily & Lime. You will get great photos and save SO much!
Response from the Vendor on 04/03/2020
Thanks, Lisa! Cherie and Chelsea are so happy after reading this lovely review. The entire Lily and Lime team are highly grateful to all your kind words and your future recommendations.
We loved working with Lily and Lime! It was effortless, pictures/video were perfect, and we feel like we got way more than what we paid for. We are a little more laid back, but after we picked our package and sent wedding plan, we didn't have to think about this vendor - they had it all handled on their own. We opted not to do engagement photos or anything before the wedding, so we didn't meet our photographer until the day of the wedding. Kachi and Daniel were amazing to work with, we had so much fun, and the results were better than all the other couples I know who spent way more than we did. They were just perfect, and we highly recommend on every level!!
Response from the Vendor on 04/03/2020
Thank you so much Jennifer for this AMAZING review. We loved working with you as well and so did Kachi and Daniel! We appreciate all your kind words and continued recommendations.
Loved working with Lily & Lime, specifically Marta who was my photographer. I think everyone's experience really depends on the photographer chosen, but Marta was great. We spent about half an hour on the phone a few days before the wedding to make sure she was aware of everything for the day (her idea). And on the day of she was great at leading us to get the best photos, you can definitely tell this is something she's been doing for some time. A few days after the wedding and we've already gotten some "Editor's Choice" pics and they look amazing!! So happy and the price cannot be beat. I highly recommend Marta in the Chicago area.
Response from the Vendor on 03/11/2020
We loved working with you as well, Jessica. Thanks a ton for sharing your lovely experience with Lily & Lime and your photographer Marta. We appreciate all your kind words and continued recommendations!
My experience working with Lily & Lime was incredibly positive from start to finish! They were so attentive and helpful whenever I had any questions or wasn't sure about something! They were open to feedback and happy to give suggestions along the way. Our photographer was EXACTLY what we wanted! She did such a fabulous job, and was very good at directing my very distractible family members so we didn't leave anyone out! The assistant photographer and videographer were absolutely outstanding! I am SO excited to see our wedding video and how beautifully our Big Day was captured! I would absolutely recommend them :-)

you relive your beautiful moments for endless years to come! We all loved your kind words. We appreciate your future recommendations!
We loved using Lily & Lime for our October wedding! We looked through their portfolios online and my husband and I both loved the style of photography. Jordan from Customer Support was extremely helpful in answering our questions. We also found the Wedding Planner and Guide extremely useful. Our photographer the day of was so kind, creative, professional, and open to our ideas. We got our photos back within a month, which I felt was very timely. We LOVE our photos - the photography style is what we were looking for and we were able to get all of the pictures we wanted. Overall, I highly recommend Lily & Lime for their affordability, quality, and professionalism!
We used Lily and Lime for our wedding and were very happy with the overall experience. We kind of waited to the last minute to book a photographer, but it was super quick and easy to book online with Lily and Lime. We lived outside of the main service area, so we had to pay an additional fee for travel, but it was still significantly less expensive than any other photographers we found, and the quality of the photos were great!
We'd recommend Lily and Lime to our family and friends!
Lily and Lime helped us find a great photographer for our wedding and made it really easy to set our expectations with them for our day. We love our pictures, and we feel that our money was well spent. Would recommend!
We were really all-around impressed with Lily and Lime, and could not be happier with our choice. We originally felt very limited on the quality of photography we could get with our budget (especially with one of us starting grad school), but were ecstatic to find the options with Lily and Lime. Our photographer (Shaun: Raleigh, NC) was excellent, professional, and captured an amazing selection of images throughout our day. We also got to work with him for our engagement shoot, which gave a perfect opportunity to get familiar with him. Truly, the photographer was the one vendor that was most important to us, and we are so happy with the choice we made. Additionally, Lily and Lime offered thorough and friendly customer service (shout out to Nigel!) throughout the process, as well as an amazingly fast turn-around on our images. We may have lucked out by getting married in a bit of an off-season, but both our engagement and wedding photos were returned to us (fully edited) in just a couple of weeks! We also received "editor's choice" selections of a handful of images for each after only a few days.
Overall, our experience with Lily and Lime was overwhelmingly positive. As long as you take the time to look through the photographers' portfolios and pick one that you feel speaks to you/suits your personal style, I don't think you could go wrong here!
Okay, so as you can imagine, we were hesitant to book with an online company without meeting someone in person ahead of time...
We ended up taking a leap of faith since my sister and one of my best friends had used the service last year and were both happy with it---and we are so glad we did!
First, you choose the location of our event and find photographers in the area. Then, you can review each photographer's portfolio and book them for your event. They have various packages available so you can pick the one that works best for your needs/budget.
We loved the transparency of the service, and the interactive customer service we've received so far. All communication with the company is done via email, but they have been very responsive and we've had no issues.
The week of our engagement shoot, our photographer reached out and asked if we were still okay with the scheduled date since there was a chance of rain. He offered to push out the date a few days later so we could have sunshine, and worked with us on finding another date which worked well for our busy schedules.
We are so happy we didn't have to compromise between our budget, great photographer, and quality customer service!! Highly recommend!!!
The company was great and quick to respond to any and all questions we had. Our photographer was Bozena and she was very nice and patient with us making sure we had good posture etc. I was pleasantly surprised with how many photos she took.
Our photographers were amazing to work with. They were knowledgeable and helpful when we weren't 100% sure on where we wanted pictures at. They were quick to respond to questions and helped to make planning from out of state a breeze!
I got married in Brooklyn in August 2018 and hired a photographer, Raymond , through Lily and Lime. I went with Lily and Lime because of their affordable packages and because of convenience. Navigating the website was really easy, and it was also easy to reserve a photographer. Raymond was very professional and so positive throughout the day. I looked at his portfolio to choose him beforehand. I was able to have a conversation with him before the wedding. He was really great to work with! I would recommend Lily and Lime especially if you are looking for an affordable photographer and don’t need that much contact with the him or her before booking. It worked out well for us!
Lily & Lime is a great choice for wedding or event photography. Their customer support staff responds quickly to inquiries, their online platform is user friendly, and their photographers are professional.
Our photographer, Violeta, went above and beyond to capture the important moments of our wedding. She interacted well with the guests and was able to direct people into poses quickly and politely. We have no regrets about our choice to go with Lily & Lime!
Lily and Lime was FANTASTIC!
Overall: They were incredibly easy to work with. You can pick your photographer based on who is available that day. Before your wedding, you have to fill out what you expect your timeline to look like for the photographer to prepare. Our photographer called us the week before to get a more detailed timeline and the day of the wedding she was on top of it! She took pictures of anything and everything and we are so very grateful to have found her using this service.
Budget: The amount you pay is based on the time you want, not the name of the photographer. There was no guesswork in pricing. It was easy picking the photographer right for our wedding without being worried if they were within budget.
Turnaround time: I have heard from several people that have waited over a year to get their wedding photographs back. I feel with Lily and Lime there was a nice middle person to make sure we got what we needed in a timely manner.
If you don't have a specific photographer you want to work with, this is the best route you can go.
If you know don't know where to start with wedding photography, Lily & Lime should be your FIRST stop. They have a wonderful online platform that allowed me to let them know what kind of photography experience my wife and I wanted to have on our special day. The photographer was professional and friendly and did an amazing job taking pictures. However, I wish the photographer was more creative and captured more than what we asked for.
Lilly and Lime was great to work with-very easy and didn't have to worry about a thing!
Loved Wendy! Her and Shannon were very professional and sweet. They got pictures of absolutely everything and I have a digital copy of over a thousand pictures. The price was great compared to many photographers of the same quality in my area.
Best deal I found for photographer. You'll get what you pay for. Had some problem with the first photographer, however, customer service was very responsive on resolving the problem. Glad we got to work with Sarah for our engagement and wedding shots, she's very friendly and make our photo sessions very comfortable!
Their professionalism and customer service is outstanding! They work with you if there's an issue and treat you like you're their only customer. I highly recommend them.
My husband and I were a little hesitant to work with Lily & Lime given the “hands-offness” of the photography crew up until the wedding week but we loved the price L&L offers compared to going direct to the photographer/videographer. The Lily & Lime process and platform was straight forward and if we were ever confused or had questions L&L support team was on it. The automated emails along the way if/when there are specific actions that need completed in a timely manner were helpful.
CHOSING YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER IS PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THIS PROCESS. Do some online stalking of your photographer to make sure you like them beyond the information L&L gives you ( first name, picture, small portfolio). Cross reference the internet for that photographer’s name in the area you’re searching and review their individual reviews on the other wedding sites since most of L&L reviews are on L&L process and not the photographer you may or may not chose. The thing about L&L is that you don’t interact with your photographer until a week before the wedding. The week before the wedding is probably one the craziest weeks of your life, so my one area of improvement is to allow the couple to engage with the photographer a little sooner. Although I understand why it’s structured this way, it makes it a little more crazy if you don’t opt for engagement photos to interact with your photographer sooner.
The week of your wedding you'll receive your photographer's contact info and if they’re good (like ours was) they’ll reached out to you to introduce themselves and discuss the important parts of your wedding and certain shots you’d like to capture. We received our photos and video very promptly as promised and they’re wonderful. Overall we are pleased with the service, product, and our photographer, especially for the value and price.

Hi Lisa, thank you for your detailed feedback about your experience with Lily & Lime. We appreciate your insights and are glad to hear that our platform, process, and support team were helpful to you. It's good to know that you found value in o...
ur service, product, and photographer, making your overall experience positive.
Lily & Lime was a cost effective way for us to get our wedding photography and we were very pleased! I really liked the photographer we picked through them as well and the customer service reps were super as there were a few minor snags that needed to be fixed along the way.
We were given a discount code in an email from Lily & Lime which we used to buy a photography package for our wedding. We paid a deposit to get locked in and the website displayed two future payments we would have to make. When we logged in to pay our second payment the amount due was higher by the tune of a few hundred dollars. I decided to reach out to them to find out what happened.
Four emails and two phone calls and they still haven't figured it out. After the first phone call they immediately admitted this was their mistake and assured me it would be solved in 1-2 business days. It has now been a week and a half since I reached out to Lily & Lime to have this corrected. When the time frame they give me goes by I have to be the one to reach back out to them to let them know they haven't fixed the issue; they do not follow up at all even when they assured me they would.
I've spoken to a few different representatives now and they're all very friendly, but seem to tell you they'll fix it just to get you off the phone so they can bump the problem down the line.
I have very little confidence they will be reliable on the day of our wedding and will be asking for a refund for the deposit we made. I feel like I've been very patient and understanding but Lily & Lime just does not seem capable of delivery a quality product.
We hired Gianna - she was really great to work with! Very professional and efficient. The pricing was fair and the photos look amazing. We got a discount by purchasing our photography package way in advance of the wedding (10 months ahead).
We had Ashley as our Main Photographer, and Chris as our Videographer.
We loved our time with Lily and Lime, they were just our style and were willing to do anything to get some amazing shots on our special day. They were laid back, not too pushy, and gave us some really special photos of our day that we would not have gotten otherwise. Our one issue was that the second photographer that was supposed to take the groom and groomsmen to a different area for their photos before the ceremony so that my bridesmaids and I could get photos before the ceremony as well, had to be told multiple times to actually do so. I ended up making one of the groomsmen get my husband and the other groomsmen together to get the photos started. They didn't start taking the groomsmen photos until 45 minutes before the ceremony, which made everything before the ceremony late, and I was still outside when guests began to arrive.
Besides that we had some beautiful photos and memories all caught by our lovely photographer and videographer.
My Husband and I used Lily and Lime for our wedding photos. The process was very easy from booking until the day of. All of our requests and need to know information went into an online portfolio for the photographer. We used Chuck and he was great! From the moment he got there until he left, he really catered to our wants and made she to capture all of the important shots! They were very timely in getting our photos back to us!
Wendy with Lily and Lime was our photographer and made our day such a breeze, and we truly enjoyed working with her. My husband and I are both laid back, and wanted to extend that feel to our wedding with forgoing a lot of the "traditions" and just spending time celebrating with our friends and family. Wendy totally understood our views, and really went with that flow. As we had never worked with a professional photographer before, she guided us through everything, and really captured the feel of us, and our venue in her photographs. Overall, Lily and Lime was such a pleasure to work with. Doing pretty much everything online made it so easy, and took a lot of stress out of booking a photographer. The online forms they provide for you to fill out also adds to the ease and gives the photographer much needed information that they utilize. The customer service rep, Maddy was also awesome. She is very professional and courteous, and kept us up-to-date on every step of the process, while also sending us emails to remind us to complete certain stages (which trust me, you will appreciate). We received sneak peeks of some of the photos within a week of our wedding, all the photos within two weeks and were able to download/purchase within 6 weeks. They processed them very quickly, which was great. We really enjoyed working with Lily and Lime and their staff, and definitely recommend their services if you are looking for a wedding photographer!
Lily & Lime was great to work with. Very simple and straight forward, easy to pick your photographer based on style and availability for your date. Our photographer was Bozena and she was amazing. Photos turned out beautifully.
We LOVED working with Lily & Lime. Customer service was top notch throughout the process - very easy to contact and prompt to respond.
Of course we were nervous choosing a photographer based only off of a portfolio and not actually getting to speak to her until the week of our wedding. We chose Monica because we loved her candid shots and boy did she not disappoint!
I spoke to Monica a few days before our wedding to go over which shots were on our "must have" list, which weren't many. She knew our venue and the surrounding area so she gave some tips and we were set. The day of the wedding she showed up to the venue early to get some pictures of the venue itself, then pictures of me getting ready and with my parents and siblings, then my husband getting ready and with his parents and siblings. We did not do a first look and she did not push for it.
During the ceremony I didn't even know she was there. After the ceremony we headed out to take some pictures with me, the groom and the bridal party and she worked fast because we were losing light - we had a 6 pm ceremony in mid-October. Those pictures came out beautiful, and she really made our jewel tone colors pop.
We didn't even notice her during the reception, but she was all over the place, and easy to find when we did want a specific photo. Our guests actually commented on how much they liked her which was great to hear! I've never heard people rave about a photographer like they were raving about Monica. There are so many sweet photos from our reception, and silly photos, and photos full of pure joy. We could not have asked for a better collection of photos from our wedding day.
Afterwards, we got a sneak peek in about a week and a half - very exciting! We got our full portfolio maybe a week or two after that and are now just waiting a couple more weeks to be able to download them.
Lily & Lime won't be for everyone, namely those who want to meet and have a sit down with their photographer ahead of time, but they were perfect for us. The whole process was really easy and we would absolutely recommend them for future brides.
I couldn’t be more pleased with our decision to choose Lily & Lime as our wedding photography company. They met and exceeded all of our expectations, from the moment we booked their services until our photos were available after the wedding. The customer service team was friendly and made sure that things were organized and on track for the wedding. Then the day of I was so grateful for Ilze and her ability to not only capture all the special moments we were looking for, but to also stay calm and collected during the process. As a bride she made me feel comfortable with the flow of the day and not in a rush to get things done. We are so grateful to everyone at Lily & Lime and would highly recommend them to anyone in the future.
We had an amazing experience with photographers and videographer from Lily and Lime. They were prompt, friendly and creative. Thank you Oladipo, Jamaal and Nicole for an amazing time at our wedding.
Lily & Lime seemed like it was too good to be true at first. I combed through all of the reviews to be sure they were a real company, and finally took the big leap by purchasing one of their base packages with a discount.
From start to finish they worked with me to ensure that I had exactly what I needed, that I knew about add-on options (without pushing them on me), that I was comfortable and happy with my photographer (who I was able to choose - a great feature offered by Lily & Lime which makes the process feel more personal), and that I loved my photos. They got the photos to me in record time as well; I thought I'd be waiting up to 8 weeks, but the preview came through within two weeks, the photos with watermarks a few days after that, and the downloads in less than a month!
Even though I used a discount, I never felt that they were treating me differently. I can't imagine how they could have made my experience any better - it was darn near perfection! There is no question in my mind that they are organized to a 'T' and that the service I was provided was tailored to me. I'm so thankful I took a shot on Lily & Lime - thank you for helping to make my wedding day a dream!
This was the perfect fit for my husband and I. The pricing was really competitive; the planning process was clear & easy to manage; the day-of experience was excellent; the resulting photographs blew away our expectations.
Lily & Lime's people were all super helpful and responsive before, during, and after our wedding. I interacted with a few different team members at different points, and they were all great to work with.
Our photographer, Leah, was freaking amazing!! I can't recommend her highly enough. She is an absolutely amazing photographer - her work is just beautiful - but her personality is the icing on the cake. She's knowledgeable and professional, but also super friendly and fun. My husband and I were a little nervous that working with a photographer we didn't know well would feel awkward/uncomfortable, but that flew out the window as soon as we met Leah. Seriously - we can't recommend her highly enough!
Overall, working with Lily & Lime was a choice we'd make again & again. Thanks for a great experience!
I decided to go with Lily and Lime for my wedding photography because of the price in all honesty, however I could not have been happier with my choice to go with them. They were very responsive during the entire wedding planning process and I never had to wait long for a response on a question. I decided to go with Casey T for my photographer and I could not have been more pleased with her warmth and professionalism. She was so easy to work with and made sure that I got all of the shots that I wanted for my wedding day (including outdoor shots on a rainy day!). I would highly recommend Casey T and Lily and Lime if you are looking for affordable and professional pictures for your wedding day
Working with Lily and Lime was great. First, contacting the customer service department was easy and smooth. They answered all our questions in a timely fashion. Then before the big day, we contacted our photographer, Rebecca, who was very professional. We had everything arranged a week before (including our favorite shots). Rebecca was great in the wedding day, she did exactly whatever we asked for. Then we got a preview of our wedding pics a week after the wedding. I would definitely recommend Lily and lime.
I am so happy we chose Lily & Lime for our wedding photography service! We were able to review portfolios of dozens of photographers and select the one we thought would take pictures that fit our style and the tone of our wedding. Our wedding photos turned out beautifully!!! The customer service with Lily & Lime was also excellent; always received same-day responses to my questions and they were very professional.
Choosing Lily & Lime was a no brainer to stay within our set budget. I had ideas of what I hoped our pictures would look like and our pictures turned out 10x better. From the planning page on the site to communication with our photographers. The pictures were ready within a few weeks and PICTURE PERFECT! I have recommended so many couples planning to check them out cause they are by far the smartest decision we made planning.
Lily & Lime was the best choice and I am so happy we chose to go with this company! I was hesitant at first to use a larger company without talking to my photographer first, rather than using someone local, but I'm SO glad we took the plunge and went with L&L. The online communication and emails were always easy and I always got fast responses. I could have called if I wanted but I prefer email. The staff is super professional and Chelsea with customer support is so nice and awesome. Payments online were always easy as well. I got to choose my photographer out of many local photographers and I was able to review all of their work before making a decision. A little over a week before our wedding, I was able to chat on the phone with my photographer (Jennifer). She was so awesome, not only before the wedding, but also throughout our wedding day! She stuck to my timeline and made sure I got all of the photos I wanted taken. She helped me remember all the shots I wanted (phew! sigh of relief!), got candids and even more shots that I never would have thought to get. She kept my whole day on time and coordinated with the other vendors to make sure everything went smoothly. I usually hate getting my picture taken (I am plus sized) but I hardly noticed she was there unless we were doing formal pictures. The pics all turned out great and she did an amazing job at making me look flattering all day long. I would certainly hire her again for any future photography needs! Editing is turned back over to L&L after the wedding, and all of our pics turned out amazing! We received almost 1200 pictures (over 500 edited) and I am so happy with the volume of pictures Jennifer got for us. She didn't miss a moment and the edited pictures look lovely! Downloading the pictures after the wedding is a breeze and I now have them for my own use forever! You can also buy an album or prints directly from them on their website. Everything about Jennifer and Lily & Lime was amazing from start to finish! You should definitely hire this company, don't hesitate!
The agency was super organized, punctual, and professional. The photographer herself were both very easy to work with and fun to have at our wedding.
We had a great experience with Lily and Lime. Customer service was very helpful with all questions that we had and our photographer was easy to reach. On the day of our wedding, Trene, our photographer, arrived on time and ready to capture wonderful pictures! It took us a little bit of time to warm up to the camera, but she was patient and created a great environment to help us feel comfortable. We would highly recommend!
Lily & Lime was FANTASTIC. The photographer and videographer we worked with were amazing and we couldn't be happier with the turn around time of our photos! Nick from L&L was fantastic and very prompt in all of his responses. We highly recommend L&L!
We were looking for a budget-friendly photography option so we're so lucky to have come across Lily & Lime! Being able to combine photography and videography helped us save thousands. We loved being able to choose our photographer --Camarie was excellent. She was so sweet and did a great job at helping us camera-shy people feel at ease in front of the camera. The booking process was easy and our coordinator Lauren was the best! She always answered my million questions right away and put my worries at ease.
I wish we would have been able to choose a videographer and see a couple full wedding videos to know what to expect or what we would want to include. I also wish we could have met or had contact with our photographer and videographer beforehand. In order to meet our photographer, we had to pay for an engagement session which my husband did not want at all. Instead of an engagement shoot, we just met with her the week before the wedding at the venue so we could walk around together and plan where we would take the pictures. It was a lifesaver but an expensive meeting!
The turnaround time was unbelieveable! We got our pictures back just a few weeks after our wedding and the video about a month after that. We were given a few edits which I really appreciated to get everything just right. We purchased the raw video footage which allowed us to add some priceless clips that weren't included in the original video. We were even able to customize the preview video!
Overall, we were super pleased with our experience, especially for the price. We have priceless memories to cherish forever.
I knew booking our photographer through Lily and Lime could be a risk, but it could not have worked out better. Our lead photographer, Kristen, and her associate photographer, Ryan, we absolutely fantastic! They were prompt, professional, and most of all, patient. They managed us and our wedding party extremely efficiently and with grace. They followed our requested timeline perfectly. We couldn't be happier. We love all of our pictures. We would strongly recommend Lily and Lime in the Baltimore area to anyone.
The Lily & Lime reps were both timely and always supportive. Best of all, the photographer we chose was the absolute best. Don was a true professional and captured some of the best images of our lives. We are forever indebted to both Lily & Lime and Don for their support of our wedding day. It went off without a hitch!
We looked around for a long time to find the right photographer. I enjoy photography as a hobby and it was important to me to have a good wedding photographer. However, everything in our budget looked like it was taken by an ameteaur. I was so surprised to find Lily & Lime was in our price range AND had high quality photographers. Loved our experience with them through the entire process!
Laurie with Lily & Lime was our photographer and she was so professional and a pleasure to work with. She brought unique and fresh ideas to capture everything we cared about and literally worked her rear off all night to get the candid shots we were looking for. Also, we got our digital negatives so fast and they are crisp, clear, and awesome! Definitely would suggest Lily & Lime to other brides and use them again in the future for any other photography needs!
