John and Betty did an amazing job and we truly enjoyed them very much so. They created a great experience for us and our wedding party capturing amazing memories on our special day. We highly recommend this vendor
John Armour of Personal Touch Photography, Fort Walton Beach, Fl., is simply AMAZING! From the beginning to end he offered endless support, advice and guidance. Having a destination wedding, John took the time to understand my wants, needs, personality and culture. He even met with us when we arrived to Destin, Fl. to provide me additional comfort before our big day.
On the day itself we felt in safe hands and it was like having a friend there with you. He would subtly capture a moment and when we needed that extra time to ourselves he didn’t rush us. His experience and professionalism shines through, allowing you to relax and have the best day of your lives.
We received a few sample photos and collage immediately and there was definitely that WOW moment, we couldn’t be more happier with the results, the sample photos definitely displayed his talent and passion for what he does.
Our guest even raved about his professionalism as he captured candid moments of them. Ensuring they were not only prepared for the photo but even offered poses or suggestions to get a great shot based on their personality.
If you’re thinking about booking John Armour (Flash), of Personal Touch Photography, for your wedding, DO IT! You won’t be disappointed and will definitely be in AWE of yourself. John captured memories we will cherish forever and was definitely the perfect choice for us to use on our special day.
My experience with John Armour (Yes. The owner reviewed his own company) was great the day of the wedding (2/25/17).
However, of the 4-6 hours of supposed footage from two videographers that we requested and received today (8/2/17), the DVD consisted of an entire 32 minutes and 42 seconds of raw footage. We have NO FOOTAGE of our reception AT ALL. That's no first dance, no father-daughter/mother-son dance, no bouquet toss, no garter retrieval/toss, no cutting of the cake, NOTHING.
The little footage that we received (FYI, only after complaining to the Florida AG's office) is supposedly of the interviews from our guests, of course half of the interviews aren't included. There's footage of the bridal party getting ready and some video of the ceremony of which you can't hear because the mic was connected to the camera that the videographer erased. YES! AN ENTIRE CAMERA WAS ERASED! I informed Mr. Armour that nothing is ever erased and there's retrieval software available.
The worst part about it was that I was notified of this via email two months after the wedding. I don't understand why footage would still be on a camera two months after an event and I can't fathom how you "erase" it!
Below is the lovely email notice.
I quote, "Amazing! I was getting ready to transfer your unedited video to disc and it completely erased off one camera. I do still have one camera footage of the wedding and the interviews, however it is not the camera with the wireless microphones for quality audio. I can’t believe that just happen, however I can reduce the video to only $175 for the footage I have of the wedding and interviews.
I’m totally upset with myself at the moment for I have never done that before. I will resend the invoice discounted to only $175 ( it’s still footage of the wedding ceremony and some great candid comments of your family and guest ). "

At the end of the day, I want MY VIDEO! I don't care if they have to reach out to the NSA for their retrieval software. I just want to relive and share with those that couldn't attend, the most magical, memorable moment of my life. I've shed so many tears about this.
The most recent update is that their "retrieval methods have been unsuccessful, but I'm still working the issue. *Footage is in a video mode that transmits in a slow motion play back and format I've yet to be able to convert to DVD."

He accomdated our schedule. He has high professional and moral standards. Mr. Amour has an eye and a passion for photography. He attends to the clients needs, wants, and desires for the photo session and is extremeyly reasonably priced.
He captured the day beautifully! He was there for everything, told us what poses to do for portraits. The pictures turned out better than I ever imagined!
