O'Ryan Empire Photo + Video

. Thank you Erik!

he did not disappoint! He took the time to create a beautiful scene with lighting to make the room more dynamic and also captured the emotions of all of our guests during the party!

e a beautiful cohesive gallery of images from the start of the wedding to the very end, but they were able to handle unexpected schedule and weather changes. They are true professionals, and I will refer them to EVERYONE!

we made! The experience from start to finish was very customer focused and all about our complete satisfaction. Erik is a very personable man and made us free at home when shooting us. The team works efficiently and professionally—they are very communicative throughout the process and make a detailed call and send a questionnaire to ensure they get all the photos you request, aside from what they are already shooting. Not to mention, their payment website is very user friendly and delivers a live balance update as soon as you make each payment (we found that extremely helpful). On our wedding day, we had the privilege of working with Erik and Marlene, and the energy they gave us kept us smiling and laughing the whole time. Our guests even complimented them to us throughout the night! To conclude, we would love the thank Jacklyn for all the beautiful edits and finally touches to each photo! The entire team goes above and beyond and I would recommend O’Ryan Empire to anyone! Our wedding was captured beautifully and I could not be any happier!

photos. Although their stunning photos and so many positive reviews are what caught our eye, this team is just so great! Our engagement shoot with Erik was an absolute blast and it was clear he knew exactly how to capture what we wanted and exceed our expectations. For our wedding, it was during some pretty intense rainfall. This was, understandably, causing us to feel stressed as we needed to make many last minute adjustments, but the phone call we had with them the week before helped to put our minds at ease so much. He was excited and totally game to get some truly unique shots in the rain, and boy did he deliver! He and his assistant, Christine, were so knowledgable and efficient and were able to find the most beautiful places in the venue to really capture the moment. I cannot wait to see the final shots as I know they will bring up so many memories and emotions. Capturing great photos was a priority for us, so we feel they offered a great value, especially seeing how wonderful they were to work with and just as people! Whole-heartedly recommend!

our lives beautifully. Highly recommend!

ly recommend for stress-free and stunning wedding photography!

eautiful reflection of our love and joy. Highly recommend!

professionalism firsthand. Jaclyn + Erik seamlessly integrated into our venue, capturing the unique beauty and atmosphere of each moment. Their ability to navigate through the event with grace and creativity showcased a level of expertise that truly enhanced the overall wedding experience. I wholeheartedly recommend O'Ryan Empire to any venue seeking a photographer who not only delivers exceptional images but also works collaboratively with the venue team. Their professionalism, creativity, and dedication to capturing the essence of each event are unmatched.

e is a true asset to any wedding. I trust and recommend him to all of my clients.

essional and easy to work with, whether it was communicating about an upcoming special dance or toasts, they were always present and ready to go. Erik and Jaclyn were not only kind but very personable and helpful when any logistical challenges arose. I had a great time working side-by-side with Erik and Jaclyn and am glad to say our clients were extremely pleased with the entire wedding. I fully and 100% recommend O’Ryan Empire Photo + Video to any couple who want to the best. Thanks Erik and Jaclyn!

ng with what we’re self conscious about or anything along those lines. We never personally got to meet Jaclyn, but the communication I had with her was always excellent! For my husband to talk about how much he enjoyed someone services is very rare, and he had nothing but good things to say about Erik repeatedly. He took the time to get to know us and our quirks, things we liked to photograph and things we didn’t. He made sure to capture all of our special moments on our wedding day and engagement session. This is the best husband+wife duo we’ve ever come across. And we agreed going forward that even though we’d have to travel to California to get family pictures done or even maternity ones when the time is right, we would. We will never use another team for our pictures. Thank you for being such a huge and vital part of our day. Your team is the best!

pitable, funny and made us feel so much more comfortable in front of a camera. Thank you so so so much from the bottom of our hearts for helping us and working with our day of schedule and making everything absolutely amazing. You da best!!!

front of the camera. We hired them for our engagement photos and our wedding day. Our photo albums turned out absolutely amazing! We couldn't be happier with everything they've done. They were communicative via email and text. They helped us organize our wedding day schedule and sped through our long list of family photos (even our family was impressed by the speed of pics!) Erik and Jaclyn make the best team and we love them so much! We highly recommend them!

n our big day. They set expectations very clearly. I highly recommend doing an engagement photo shoot as well because it's a great chance to get to know them and their personality. They made both me and my husband feel so relaxed it honestly didn't even feel like we were ever "posing" for photos. Erik has this incredible presence of calmness (which is super needed during all things wedding) while also being super on top of it and getting everything done. I never once felt worried about our footage or our photos because I knew Erik had it covered. Thank you O'Ryan Empire for being one of the top highlights of our wedding experience. We are beyond grateful. Your customer service was above and beyond.

and their professionalism is top notch, which is greatly appreciated especially since we booked them two years in advance. They answered all of our many questions and their vibe is great. When we first met them for our engagement shoot, we both felt as though we had known them in another lifetime since it was so easy to make conversation with them. We are so glad that they were there to capture all of our special moments that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

ve ever encountered. The whole bridal party was super impressed with them, too. They paid attention to every detail and let us know when hair or positioning or little things were off. They were super authentic and diverse with their shots. They captured photos that ranged from bridal magazine cover looking to super intimate to awesome action photos. They were beyond easy to work with. They’re obviously great people—so kind and genuine, super fun, very respectful, and professional in their roles. They took their time to understand our family dynamics and what we envisioned and helped guide us through a lot. They were always responsive in a timely manner with everything from wedding prep to getting our sneak peak photo to getting our album. Honestly, they were more on it than we were. Our photos and experience with them couldn’t have turned out better and I’m so grateful our memories from our magical day can be kept alive and cherished through the pictures they captured for us. I can’t say enough great things about them!

oot and a photoshoot for my son’s first birthday. Every time, I have been blown away by the quality of the pictures. I would definitely recommend them for wedding photos, but they are also amazing at capturing other special events. They are both very welcoming and easy to talk to. We always have a great time during the pictures. They are definitely my go to photographer for special events and family photos!

mend them highly!!!

h, took the time to get to know us and be familiar with our families and wedding party, and had really creative ideas for photos. They definitely make you feel comfortable while taking your picture and allow you to have fun with the whole process! We love our photos so much and get complimented on them all the time. O’Ryan Empire Photography is definitely a great option to go with for your photographers, you won’t be disappointed! Thanks guys, you rock!!!

tographers. They were very professional and knew exactly what poses we needed to do. We have already seen some sneak peek pictures which are absolutely gorgeous and can’t wait for the final product!

took about 4 months between first contact and the actual event happening and they were involved/excited about the proposal the entire time. They helped with strategic planning, getting the location and setting correct, making sure I had all necessary items to make the moment exceptional for Alexis, and made the entire experience play out exactly how I saw it in my head. Erik and Jaclyn truly went above and beyond for us. Saying that they are well seasoned, passionate and skilled in their trade is an understatement; cannot say enough good things about our experience with O'Ryan Empire.

They broke my shy fiancé out of his shell so much he had the best time taking our engagement pictures. You’re so busy having fun with them you forget you’re even on a shoot lol. Even when they were under pressure when our original location wasn’t going to work they were quick to come up with a solution and make our engagement shoot dreams come true! Thank you guys for going above and beyond to ensure that our day was perfect. Their photos are beautiful and they capture amazing moments (the candid moments were some of my favorites). You can’t go wrong with them. We can’t wait for our wedding and see what else they capture along with our crazy family lol. You guys made a client for life! Thank you Jaclyn and Erik for going the extra mile for us we are beyond grateful and can’t wait to see what the future holds. Book them you won’t regret it!!

easy going, making sure to address any questions I had. We scheduled our wedding photographs and an engagement session. When we met for the engagement session my fiancé and I both felt a little nervous because we had never been photographed in such a way. But, Erik and Jaclyn made us feel so comfortable and we had so much fun. Another thing I really appreciated from them was their flexibility and willingness to work with me. COVID caused my wedding date to be postponed and O’Ryan was very understanding and allowed us to move our date. They were always punctual in replying to my many emails and it was very reassuring that they were so good with communication. When it came to the date of our wedding, my husband and I were both really impressed with O’Ryan (as we knew we would be). They thought of everything and took so many amazing pictures. Our wedding party also enjoyed working with them as they got a lot of fun shots. They really captured my wedding day in a way that I will cherish forever. Their work is amazing I would hands down recommend them for anyone needing photographers for any special occasion.

e in the schedule were STILL able to quickly and beautifully capture my wedding day. I was so stressed out and worried that my makeup artist ruined my wedding and then Erik and Jaclyn stepped in and made me laugh, and reminded me what the day was about. I cannot recommend them enough! They will SAVE your day!

yet fun, they were prepared, and professional. They were truly interested in getting to know about us so that they could plan the perfect package. Our wedding photos were amazing, and what we found really unexpected is that they documented not only our wedding day, but they captured moments and details that we were oblivious to, due to the frenzied atmosphere. We’ve already planned to have them shoot out first anniversary. I would highly recommend them for any event. Darren M.

e had them for our big day! Pandemic and all, they made it work and they delivered absolutely stunning pictures to us that we will cherish for a lifetime!

ye unlike anyone I've ever seen before, not to mention their impeccable talent when it comes to editing with perfection. They both communicate with you with such ease and support to capture fun, playful, candid, romantic, sexy moments in time. I received my engagement photos tonight and completely at a loss for words with how amazed I am with how they turned out. The only hard part about working with them is choosing favorite photos because I just love them ALL!!! I can't wait to work with them again at our wedding.

nd every project.

cond.

ding day was over. I love that O'Ryan Empire Photography has the technical ability to photograph in any lighting situation, but also the personable nature to deal with my crazy family members and the ever changing emotions. My HUSBAND and I are thrilled that we chose Jaclyn and Erik to photograph our day, and would recommend them to ANYONE looking for a quality team that cares about experience, and the gorgeous gallery you will receive!

used radio’s so that they could keep constant communication with each other. I really enjoyed watching them work together and the photos came out incredible!

. I felt so comfortable and at ease. They took their creative vision to the next level . The experience was nothing short of Magnificent.

to capture our wedding day. Jaclyn and Erik will make you feel comfortable; and this is coming from two people who are camera shy. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to capture your story, your love, your moment. We love our photos! Thank you again, Brittney and Jonathan!

re to have them taken and made them look better then I could ever image. I will definitely use them again for future shoots!
