However, the photos we received back were very poor quality and not comparable at all to the portfolio they advertised. The composition of many of the photos were strange and unflattering. There was a large black pipe in several of our "good" photos that she should have noticed or could have easily photoshopped out. Many of the photos showed us with our mouths open. Kiara put us in several poses that turned out looking very awkward and unflattering for both of us. Several photos honestly looked like they were taken on an iPhone. They looked like they were trying to be "editorial", but the execution was just not there. You could barely tell we were in the most historic and most beautiful city in Florida. The few decent photos we received were greatly overshadowed by the bad ones. We reached out to 3 different professional photographers to see if our concerns were valid. I did not want to come off as a "bridezilla". They all stated that we very well should be upset at the quality we received. We paid a very hefty deposit (well over $1,000). We voiced our concerns and Kiara agreed to do a re-shoot. However, her communication about this was very poor. A few business days went by & we still had not heard about a reshoot date. We wanted to take care of this right away as we were growing more unconfident with her abilities by the day. We were very prompt with our communication. She also did not seem to take any accountability for the issues we voiced. She more so told us that me and my fiancé would do better next time which did not sit well with me. My fiancé and I are not pro models and nor should we be. She only answered back when we followed up wanting to part ways. We inquired about receiving part of our deposit back because the amount we paid was VERY high & the quality of images we received were not at all comparable to the portfolio photos. We were denied any type of refund which was very hurtful as she has close to 5 months to fill our date. We never once asked for a full refund. We simply just were not confident or comfortable at this point due to how it was all handled. We did not feel like a priority. We sought legal counsel about this matter. Our lawyer also agreed that the contract we signed was very poorly written. Overall, Kiara seemed very nice. We were very excited to have her photograph our wedding since she was recommended to us by another professional photographer, and we liked her portfolio. However, I would not recommend due to our experience.

ding, they brought a sense of calmness and ease that was much appreciated when things felt chaotic. They had an unbelievable eye for capturing the perfect shot, and made sure to get all the pictures we wanted and then some. Their attention to detail and creativity really came through in the photos, and we were blown away by the results of the sneak peaks, which they turned around in a days time! We cannot wait to see the full album! Overall, we would highly recommend Kiara and Joe to anyone looking for someone with a great eye, excellent communication skills, and a true passion for their craft. We would definitely hire them again in a heartbeat and hope that everyone else does too! Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special and for capturing these memories that we will cherish for a lifetime.

age on Wedding Wire, they only had 3 reviews but I loved their vibe. I am SO happy I booked them, because my husband and I could not be more happy with not only how the photos turned out, but with how sweet Joe and Kiara were. Joe and Kiara are an incredible husband and wife duo that brought a lighthearted and fun vibe to our wedding day. They made us feel super comfortable the entire day, and the photos are better than we ever could have imagined. We wanted a lot of candid, non-forced photos, and they gave us just that! From the venue photos to wedding party photos, they captured our day so organically and beautifully. Cannot recommend them enough!

d a boudoir shoot with me, something I never would have had the confidence to do but I am obsessed with how the photos came out and she was a great hype woman while taking the pictures! Our wedding day was perfect and we can’t wait to get our photos and video back. Joe and Kiara were professional in the sense that they made sure we got all the photos we wanted, they were on time and there was never any communication issues. But we also felt like we were just hanging out with them as friends the whole day, there was no chaos and they captured everything I wanted. I absolutely love their photography style and new I wanted to book them immediately, I can’t wait to plaster my home in wedding photos! Definitely recommend a million times over.
