PKA Photography (specifically, Mia, LaRon, Nafas, and David) were wonderful photographers and videographers at our secular and Indian traditional wedding. They were so welcoming, k...ind, and accommodating of our desires and delivery. We went all out and got the L'Amour package and we have absolutely no regrets!
Before any photo/video sessions, Mia took a Zoom call with us to get to know us, our needs, and what we were hoping for when creating these lifelong memories.
Mia did our engagement photoshoot and she really went above and beyond: To give you some idea, we actually chose TWO locations for this and Mia came to both locations AND it was high tide at our beach location and Mia STILL navigated around the difficult terrain so we could get the perfect pictures.
Before the wedding events, we had a call with both Mia and LaRon and walked through what the wedding would look like, linked them with our other vendors, and finalized with them what photos were non-negotiable (e.g., group photos with friends and family, cultural elements) and what videos were important for us to have (e.g., the first dance). They were incredibly knowledgeable and provided us with the appropriate plans, details, and advance notice for us keep in mind.
On the actual day-of, their photography and videography team were excellent at being behind the scenes, yet they were able to capture all the details that made our day wonderful. Even though we faced some time issues, Mia, LaRon, and their team easily maneuvered around this and provided us with prompt suggestions to ensure our day and photos/videos were not totally interrupted.
The team was also really good at taking us to the side at the right time (think peak Golden Hour!) and getting amazing shots and videos of us. The team hyped us up and kept us energized despite all the happenings of the wedding (fun but tiring for sure!). Outside of this, the team also got amazing shots of our decor, food, and guests which we are so thankful for and happy to see in our album and videos! When it came to the Indian traditional event, the team was also very meticulous in ensuring the special cultural elements were photographed and video taped well which added to the unique memory of our event.
After the weddings themselves, Mia and LaRon were very good in keeping in contact with us and communicated with us on everything--from getting our confirmation on which photos went into our albums to what editing style we liked to letting us know of shipping delays! Their patience and prompt communication with us was definitely a highlight of our experience with PKA.
When it came time to collect our USB and photo albums, we could not stop smiling looking back at our memories. We were also so happy to receive the livestreams of our events which friends and family now have access to in case they missed the even day-of.
Overall, we would recommend PKA 1000 times over. Mia and LaRon are an amazing, dedicated, and kind duo. Their media team added to the happiness and memory of our weddings and we highly recommend them for any of your special events!
