Bryan and Moments Into Memories Photography were a joy to work with for our Oct 9th wedding. We could not be more pleased with the quality of the photos which we received, especially for the excellent price.
Bryan was very speedy when we firs...t reached out to set us up with a time to chat (remotely, given the COVID situation when we were booking services.) He answered our questions thoroughly and provided a lot of great info we would have not thought to ask about! He was happy to work with us to fit our budget, and we ended up booking both Photography and DJ through MIM for a really great price.
Initially I was concerned that since the pricing was so great, that meant the services might not match other pricer vendors we'd looked into - that was not so! Both our photography and DJ were top-notch. Maggie, our photographer on the day-of, was fun and personable but unobtrusive during family moments. She seemed familiar with our venue and was always in the right place at the right time to capture great images, and needed no direction on how to do so (she did offer that we could tell her any shots we wanted specifically, but we let her take a self-guided approach and she came up with amazing shot ideas without us having to worry about it.) She was so sweet, and while my husband and I are both normally awkward posers she knew just how to direct us to get some natural and fun pics!
We received our pictures back a few months after the wedding (we had already been advised of this timeline given how busy their photo schedule was this fall, and were fine with it) and all of the pictures were high-resolution and beautiful. With only 1 photographer for 6 hours we had well over 500 images, almost all of which were amazing. Our families loved the pictures and everyone was very complimentary of their quality. I loved that MIM gives you the opportunity to download all of the original files directly, rather than being forced to buy copies through them/pay extra for the files, which is what most other services on The Knot require. It was so much easier to get everything at once and have the option to order things as we go.
Our DJ service was also great - I believe our DJ's name was John (I am horrible with names but he was a great guy.) He met us for coffee closer to our date to go over the DJ worksheets we had already filled out. The worksheets had made it SO simple to know exactly what we should expect, and to customize our DJ service. John did a wonderful job of tailoring both our cocktail hour and dance music to use, plugging in some of our favorites as a request while making plenty of his own choices using his years of experience. He also helped with setting up sound for my brother who officiated/played our ceremony music on his guitar and seemed more than happy to help with that.
All in all I 100% recommend Bryan and Moments into Memories. Getting married during a pandemic was scary and often stressful, but Bryan did an excellent job of minimizing every stressor that he could. Getting both services through his company really removed so many potential head-aches, and set-up / arrival from the MIM staff was prompt and professional.
