If I could give this business zero stars, I would. First and foremost, Christina Hinnant is a con artist. She puts pressure on her clients to give deposits early for other added se...
rvices. (For example, she will say if you give deposit $$ now, I'll give you an extra session for an engagement photoshoot.) I fell into this scam because this business was suggested from a friend and I trusted it without verifying it first. I gave the first 1k deposit and after multiple attempts of setting a time and date for a photoshoot, it was cancelled by her all 3 times. After that we did not hear from her again because we asked whether we should find services elsewhere if she could not provide them. We did not get our deposit back. I would suggest reading her contract very carefully because this entire family (husband is a lawyer) knows how to scam people outside of just this business (look it up). This was a huge learning experience for me and it was unfortunate that it had to impact the one most special day in my life. I would say that it is much more beneficial to review everything very carefully when it comes to wedding things because it is better to not start a contract as opposed trying to work with a broken system to get your money back.
She is a thief. Took a $1200 deposit and was never to be heard from again. Ignored 50 plus emails/ phone calls. Then high tailed it to Germany and now she’s back trying to reopen h...
er business and steal from the rest of the people she hasn’t screwed over.
Christine has taken my daughter's senior picture and then her engagement photos so when it came to her wedding it was a no brainier! However, it has turned out to be the most upset...
ting , frustrating & disappointing event in both my daughter & my life! My daughter's wedding was at Disney in Nov 2015. We have yet to receive her photo ablum and prints! It has been a struggle to communicate with her assistant and Christina herself has stopped responding to our phone calls and emails! Being this is my only child I made sure Christina new how important certain photos where to me and wanted to make sure she captured them. I signed a contract with her for 2 photographers to be there so not to miss a moment. The day of the wedding she showed up with her husband as her assistant and no other photographer!! Because the bridal suite was at a different location then the wedding it meant she had to leave the bride BEFORE she was dressed to take photos of the groomsmen in order to stay on schedule. That left us resorting to family to take the mother/daughter photos I so wanted to treasure. Also, when we got to the wedding location for our bridal party photos we where taken outside in the Florida heat to a concrete patio with the hotel French doors as the back drop for our photos. Out of all the beautiful places around the Disney Chapel we where standing on concrete with white French doors as the back drop! Christina had a year to evaluate the area to find the perfect places for these once in a lifetime photos and on the contract she says she will check it out prior to the wedding to insure the best photos and lighting. At this point my daughter is asking for ONE photo that Christine took of her and her groom in front of the large Broadwalk Resort sign where the reception was held that Christine showed my daughter after she took it and my daughter expressed how much she loved it and wanted it. Apparently she is too busy to upload it to the online ablum or at least according to her very rude and unprofessional assistant Jana. It is very disheartening that Christine was paid in full the $4200 over a year ago now and we have yet to receive the photos that where taken not to mention the ones that can never be! Those memories are lost forever! At one time I would have recommended her 100% but after this experience I would not trust her to capture my memories at all!
When planning our wedding, the one thing that my husband and I agreed on was that we would not compromise for quality on our wedding photography. We are both very particular about ...
capturing special moments in the best way possible.
The BEST decision we made in our wedding planning was having Christina with Photography Blu capture our special moments!
After the first conversation I had with Christina, I immediately called my then-fiance about how comfortable she made me feel and how I felt like we'd known each other our whole lives. It was like talking to your best friend about the most exciting day of your life!
After meeting with her in person, we knew we just HAD to have Photography Blu capture our wedding. Christina was so professional, knowledgable and genuinely cared about all the details we discussed. We loved that she had ideas for us, depending on the style we were looking to go for. Not only that, but she was able to give us advice on wedding details based on her many years of experience in the wedding world.
Prior to our wedding we had our engagement portraits and my bridal portraits done by her. We were totally blown away by her artistic talent and ability to capture the emotion in every single photo. In our sessions we felt extremely comfortable and had so much fun.
Our wedding was captured so beautifully. The day of the wedding Christina knew exactly what needed to happen at what time. She was so sweet and caring, constantly making sure I was ok and staying hydrated. I didn't feel like my photographer was capturing my wedding, but a close friend.
We were absolutely blown away by our wedding pictures and couldn't help but get emotional looking at them all...reliving the day like it had just happened again. I've never met a photographer who can capture moments like she did.
We are so very happy with Christina from Photography Blu. We can't wait to continue to have her capture our lifetime moments in the days to come!
The absolute best wedding photographer in Florida!!! We were in love with our engagement and wedding photos, and that's all I really wanted, but Christina went above and beyond to ...
help me on my wedding day, bustling my dress, making sure my Mom had water when she was stressed, it was like she was a behind the scenes bridesmaid. I was seriously blown away with the quality and amount of photos we got in our gallery. My sister's wedding photographer gave them hardly any photos and the quality was awful- ours were all edited, and we she captured every moment and many I didn't even remember. All of this is what you want in a wedding photographer, you won't regret it!
I would not do business with Christina. My best friend received horrible customer service and I will not use her in my own wedding. That's my OPINION of this photography company.
Christina is awesome! She is the best photographer you can find! She is fun, so sweet and really creative. She will capture the most amazing photos and you will be in love! Highly ...
recommend her!
