Everyone has been incredibly thorough, friendly, and flexible. We were so lucky to have been able to work with Shaun and James for our wedding day. They were the perfect balance of professional, efficient, fun, and flexible - all while making sure we were comfortable and had a great time.
We highly recomend their services to anyone who's looking for a photographer. It's no wonder they're the preferred vendor for Park Chateau, which was where we got married. Thank you Shaun, James, Lou, Dani, and the rest of the team at Milton Gil for making our entire experience as awesome as it could be! :)

harge while still being kind and easygoing. They kept everything running smoothly and on time without ever making us feel rushed. They knew the venue (Florentine Gardens) like the back of their hands- always knowing where the best shot or light was throughout the day. Each session felt relaxed and fun, and they made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. Their energy added to the day - family and bridal party agree. We can’t wait to see the magic they created.

ing day. It was such an easy process to book them; their entire team – Suzanne, Louis, Sean – were incredibly communicative and accessible throughout the entire planning process. We had an engagement photo shoot with Sean about a year out from our wedding date. It was the perfect “dress rehearsal” to see how well we worked together and get a sense of their techniques/style. We had a few conversations leading up to the wedding day and I appreciated their honest feedback when it came to organizing extended family photos. On the wedding day, everything went so smoothly and Sean + his team really made the most of our time together and the venue’s beautiful landscapes. Our photos are just WOW. We got so many quality shots and they truly captured our newlywed joy and the love of our family and friends around us. Thank you, MG!!

In one word…FANTASTIC!

e pre- ceremony pictures. What was most impressive was how he took the time to learn everyone’s name and relationships to create an efficient flow.
I really appreciated having a phone call from Stephen a few days before the wedding to ensure the order/ flow of the day. It made me feel confident in him. He made sure I would get every pose that I wanted.
Shaun was equally as efficient with the groomsmen and made them feel comfortable. He captured candid moments and secondary point of views for each event of the wedding.
Stephen & Shaun both knew the ideal places and lighting to shoot due to their familiarity with Florentine Gardens. Therefore, we were exactly on time/ahead of schedule throughout the day. It was flawless.
Finally, the pictures themselves were so beautiful and we got them back in two weeks. So stunning! They captured the moments and we’ll have these memories for a lifetime.
I would highly recommend Stephen and Shaun!

Our videographers, Vinicius and Ayoub, were equally amazing. They were so thoughtful in how they documented the day, and we can’t wait to relive all the magic through their lens. Their attention to detail and calm, friendly presence added so much to our experience.
Thank you to the entire Milton Gil team for helping us preserve these once-in-a-lifetime memories so beautifully. We will treasure your work forever!

nicius, were all amazing. Everything from the primary and secondary angles to the perfect coloring and lighting in every image were exactly what we hoped for, and the videos we received were expertly timed with the music we chose and captured every moment, with us perfectly spotlighted (not just our guests!). We also had a number of specific requests for the parent album, and the team, Suzanne especially, were also incredibly responsive and delivered exactly what we asked for. The albums are so high quality and the colors are so vibrant! We couldn't have chosen a better team, or gotten better products, and I would recommend Milton Gil to anyone who wants bright, sharp, elegant photos and video.

MiltonGil was a preferred vendor at our venue and now we completely know why. Peter and Steve were a dream team on our wedding day and they capture all of our special moments from ...
multiple angles. They both made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and made the day stress free and fun. Our bridal party LOVED them and cannot stop talking about this camera light that Steve gave my bridesmaid during the reception. Something we loved about Peter was the constant confidence boost he gave us during our photos. He would yell out compliments and the funniest commentary throughout the entire day shooting. They both bought such a cool flare to our wedding, and the work after did not disappoint. The turn around time was fast and we absolutely love our pictures. The two of them captured our big day perfectly. We were missing some family photos, but MiltonGil had no issue editing for us. You’d never know they were edited either. If you want timeless, gorgeous photos with some fun photographers, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND booking MiltonGil for your special day!

of the process was flawless.
Shaun and Lou have remarkable talent for capturing the essence of every moment. Their creativity and attention to detail resulted in breathtaking images that we will cherish forever. They managed to capture not just the big moments, but also the small, intimate ones that we didn't even realize were happening.
On top of their incredible skill behind the camera, Shaun and Lou also were an absolute pleasure to work with. They were professional, yet personable, making us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire day. Their calm demeanor helped alleviate any nerves we had, allowing us to fully enjoy our wedding day.
Not only did Shaun and Lou deliver exceptional service on the day of the wedding, but they also went above and beyond in the post-production process. We were amazed by how quickly we received our photos, and the quality exceeded all of our expectations. Each image was beautifully edited, showcasing their talent and dedication to their craft.
We've received countless compliments on our wedding photos, with many friends and family members commenting on how they perfectly captured the love and joy of the day. We feel incredibly grateful to have had Milton Gil document our wedding, and we highly recommend them to anyone in search of a talented and professional photographer.

Regrettably, giving even one star feels overly generous. Seek another photog...
rapher…
Reflecting on my wedding photos, the only emotions I experience are disgust and disappointment due to the shocking lack of quality in Milton Gil's photos and the corresponding customer service. To keep this brief, the photos are alarmingly out of focus, creating an unsettling lack of clarity. My eyes are reduced to mere black dots, and my teeth appear unnaturally yellow, to the point where it's inexcusable.
Despite earnest attempts to address these concerns with Louis, the response was a dismissive 'it is what it is,' with audacious comments regarding the state of my teeth. Louis, if you scrutinize my close-ups during bridal prep, you'd be deluded to ignore the glaring issues. Reviewing my wedding photos leaves me not only disappointed but genuinely disgusted, especially considering the substantial amount I invested.
To anyone considering Milton Gil over other photographers, I advise against it. No one should endure the heartache of wedding photos marred by blurriness, lack of focus, and unnatural discoloration. If I could turn back time, I'd make a different choice, as I now find it impossible to look at my wedding photos without overwhelming frustration.
I anticipate a response that absolves any responsibility.

, friendly, and answered any questions I had. I loved that the Milton Gil photographers knew The Park Savoy so well, I knew this would make our photo time run smoothly. We had our engagement shoot with Steve, in March 2023. We loved our photos and getting to know him before the wedding. The week of the wedding I spoke with Steve and ran through what our day would look like, he took note of the personal details I had planned to be sure they were photographed and made sure to know all of our family groupings to make the wedding day easy. With his professionalism and organization I knew we were in good hands. The day of our wedding Steve and Maria each arrived on time and made our getting ready photos flow seamlessly. Steve and Maria worked so well together and made all of our photo sessions fun for us. My husband doesn’t love pictures and he kept talking about how much he loved our photo team! Our pictures are incredible and I would absolutely recommend Milton Gil to anyone looking for their wedding photographers!

With the whirlwind of the last few weeks behind us, we've finally had a few moments to reflect on what an incredible day we were lucky enough to share with our closest friends and ...
family. The wedding was a huge success in no small part because of Steve and Maria's hard work and incredible effort across the board. They rolled with all of the day-of punches, including delays, personalities, and weather to get the shots we planned (as well as the impromptu ones).
Especially after now seeing the hundreds of photos in the online album, we can say that the pictures turned out as perfectly as the day did. Steve and Maria both helped to create magical memories that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. They went above and beyond to make the process seamless for us, and we both are truly appreciative for everything. -C&M

There knowledge of our venue (The Park Savoy) made our experience seamless. They knew the grounds to a tea and knew where and when to take our photos to capture the beauty of the venue. We can’t even decide which photos are our favorites because there are just HUNDREDS to chose from. If you are looking for true professionals who know what to do, when to do it and how to do it, look no further than Milton Gil Photographers. We would hire them again and again. Thank you Louis and Dani, from the bottom of our hearts, for an incredible wedding photography experience.

Milton Gil was excellent. We really wanted true to life photos and that is what we got. Our main photographer, Shaun, was so fun to work with. He also had a creative spin to photos...
that we now cherish so much, and went out of the way to move decor for creative photos, and even change the color of our venues water fountains to my favorite color! Beyond all that, we got all our photos within 3 weeks which is truly groundbreaking for wedding photos. We couldn't believe it ourselves and it was such a pleasure being able to see them all so quickly (though it took months to pick our favorites, because we just loved so many!) Thank you so much to Shaun and Milton Gil for giving us photos we will treasure forever, and giving us a seamless wedding vendor experience!

Milton Gil was great to work with since day 1 and really made the whole process stress free. They were always there to answer any questions we had. Once our wedding was over, we ...
were told it would take about 4 weeks to receive , and we got them back in less than 2 weeks! All our photos came out amazing and confirmed we had our dream fall wedding.
We had Shaun and Dani as our photographers, and they were both SO amazing! We really had so much fun with them all day. Shaun really has an eye for every detail. I was blown away by the direction he gave and the lengths he went to get the perfect shot. Every photo that both Shaun & Dani took are absolutely beautiful. Not only were they great photographers, but they really catered to anything we needed without even being asked – help w/jewelry, changing shoes, handing us drinks, etc…
If you want to have great pictures and a fun time with your vendors, I highly recommend Milton Gil!!

nd our videographer was Jose, they made taking photos fun and I'm not one one who enjoys taking multiple photos. We got over 2000 photos, correction we got over 2000 perfect photos.

I don't even know where to begin this review.
I'll start with this. I have been a Maitre d at top venues in PA and NJ for 12 years and have worked with top people in their industry...
. I work with the crew from Milton Gil on a weekly basis. So naturally because I love their work (clean and natural) and I know them and love them on the backend, I knew I had to book them right away. It is so important to get along with your photographers personalities since you are with them 8+ hours out of the day. It is also important for me, knowing that I wasn't going to have a planner, (I did everything myself), to know that they had my back and knew how to run a timeline and keep things moving. You do not have to worry about them ever!
I knew I wanted to work with Lou as my lead photog right away because we get along so well. He also did our gorgeous engagement shoot and that is when my husband was able to meet him. They got along right away. Lou was there for us every step of the way, considering I booked with them a year and a half out from the wedding date. Every email and meeting I wanted to have, he was super responsive and caring.
Shaun is also a favorite of mine and I am sooo thankful that he was there as a second shooter. My husband and groomsmen loved him and thought of him as one of the guys. He had such a creative shooting style.
My third shooter was James who I had never met before but was equally as amazing as the other two. I felt comfortable right away.
My videographer was Jose. We have worked together for awhile too and he is fabulous to work with on the backend. The entire team was a DREAM to work with day of. They were on time, and as soon as I saw them I became emotional. It truly was like my close friends were there!
Lou was my lead and took care of the girls, Shaun took care of the guys, and James was there to assist on all sides.
Sorry I have so much to say but I hope this helps future brides!
My ceremony was supposed to be on a mountain but because it was raining, I had to go with the indoor plan. I knew I didn't have to worry about my photo team one bit. They were there for me when the venue told me that we could go to the top of the mountain for the first look and formal portraits. They turned out great. I had amazing photos from the entire day. Some of which I didn't even know were taken! They were there every step of the way and never got in the way, I didn't know they were there half the time, and my husband never got tired of taking photos! This is a man that doesn't want to take one selfie ever!! So this says a lot.
When I tell you their turn around is QUICK. I MEAN. Come on. Unreal. And the amount of photos?? Insane!!
If you are second guessing hiring a second photographer, don't even think twice. YOU NEED IT. If you can splurge on a 3rd, do it!!! You will never regret it and you certainly won't think you have too many pictures. My team got everything!
The entire team felt like family by the end. I didn't notice them take one break over 12ish hours they were there. I am so grateful for them for capturing the most beautiful day of our lives. Thank you Milton Gil!!!!

bsolutely incredible. We hit it off with him right away and had lots of fun while shooting. We felt like we had known him for years. All of our wedding photos along with our engagement photos came out absolutely stunning. We could not be happier with how they came out & Shaun is one of the best! Not only an amazing photographer but an awesome guy as well! Everyone at Milton Gil was so helpful throughout our whole wedding process & are such a great team to work with! We had Marchin & Nelson as well on our wedding day and they are also amazing & an absolute pleasure to work with. Do yourself a favor & choose Milton Gil for your wedding day, you will not regret it!

through Milton Gil, so felt that it really was fate that we booked them!
Louis and Anj were both super professional, on time, and made sure to take many pictures! Louis frequently photographs at our venue (Florentine Gardens) so we were comfortable that we would get photos in the best spots! We received our pictures within 2 weeks and we are very happy with them! Definitely recommend Milton Gil.

Lou was our main shooter and also shot our engagement shoot. He was lovely and got us all the pictures we wanted on our list. We got the photos back in a little under 3 weeks and ...
90 % are perfect, I just wish towards the formal pictures, you can see in the pictures I look a little strained. I wish he could have said, let’s just take a quick 5 and I think the pictures would have come out a little better for that small section (I have a HUGE family so these pictures took longer in general & in general my face says EXACTLY how I'm feeling LOL). I would still book them again though without hesitation!

We first heard of Milton Gil because a friend of ours used them for their wedding back in June 2021 and we immediately loved their work. When we booked our venue at Nanina's in the...
Park, we were delighted to see that Milton Gil was a preferred vendor there. We immediately reached out and spoke with Lou who was a great contact but ultimately was booked on our day and paired us with Steve. We booked our engagement photos with Steve and the rest is history. My husband and I were very nervous to do engagement photos as we are awkward behind the camera but Steve made us feel so comfortable and those photos came out amazing. We were so excited for Steve to be our photographer on our wedding day almost a whole year later.
First and foremost, Steve was AMAZING. He was loud and direct with our distracted family members, he kept everyone organized where no one was ever confused on where to go, he knew exactly what shots to take and where as to not waste any time at all, he even ran out into the street to direct traffic so that cars weren't driving past us as we were taking photos and stood in the bushes to get the best shots. He did not miss one beat.
We also got paired with Matt, who we met the day of our wedding. He was mostly with the groomsmen during the day then assisted Steve and took photos from a different perspective. He was the BIGGEST hype man all day long. He was always on his A game and always had something nice to say or compliment us on when we felt like we looked silly. We have literally not one bad thing to say about either Matt or Steve and absolutely loved them!
Now on to the photos. We expected our photos to take about 4 weeks to be delivered to us but a week later, as we were enjoying our honeymoon, we got the email that our photos were ready! They are all STUNNING. We are so beyond blown away on how they all came out. Steve got photos head on as he was the main photographer and Matt got photos from a different perspective where we weren't looking directly at the camera. We had the perfect blend of posed photos and candid.
We are so thankful to our photographers Steve and Matt and to Milton Gil for capturing our day so incredibly beautifully. We will cherish these photos forever!

We purchased our photo and video package with Milton Gil. We originally had been assigned another photographer for our wedding day who we had completed engagement photos with last ...
June. After we received our engagement photos, we liked, not loved, our photos abut assumed a quick discussion with our photographer would be enough. A few unanswered emails and one phone call later, we were assigned Steve as our main photographer for our wedding day. While we had not met Steve in person prior to our wedding day, we are thrilled, not to mention relieved, that it worked out the way it did. Steve and our other photographer James both have a great creative eye and were able to capture some of the best photos we have seen to date. If they saw an opportunity for a good photo, they took it. Steve was able to wrangle those who were needed for photos in a kind and quick manner, something very much appreciated as we had ample time to complete our portraits and take some time to ourselves prior to the reception starting. Our video shooter was Vinny- he did a great job capturing our night on all levels and was able to turn around our final video assets in ~6 weeks. We did not receive any sneak peek photos but did receive our entire album with 1,500+ photos 30 days after the wedding. It was worth the wait! We could not recommend Steve, James, or Vinny enough if you choose to work with Milton Gil.
