Prelude Photography

Dee and Shannon were absolutely fantastic! They took any photo we wanted and made the day fun. We had quite a chaotic day and they went with the flow. We received our smash video and sneak peak 5 days after our wedding and they were fantastic! We are beyond thrilled with prelude and would recommend them 100 times over.

Prelude Photography did an amazing job at our wedding. The photographer worked quickly to get everyone set up for pictures so that everything went smoothly according to our timeline. The 4 1/2 minute highlight video we received after the wedding was phenomenal. I can't wait to see the full video.

The video was amazing! It was an outdoor ceremony, and it was windy. They did a great job of cutting out the wind noise. I loved the ending, with snippets of the wedding party laughing and having fun! The photos were great too! With a setting sun and wind! Also, Matt was willing to work with us for the 2 hours we needed. Didn’t have to pay for a whole day, which really helped us out.

Matt did an exceptional job!! We love the photos!! He really knew the venue and where the best places for photos would be! I highly recommend Prelude Photography!

Alyssa from Prelude Photography is just incredible. She was fantastic to work with from the very first time we met her. We had one meeting with her to finalize details of the wedding and that was all that we needed. She made a list of shots and ensured we got every picture we wanted from the wedding! She also added any pictures the bridal party or family requested. And the end result was beautiful pictures. Alyssa did a perfect job at capturing the moments of the day, and because of her, we will never forget our special occasion.

Prelude are the best photographers and videographers in Lake County and the Cleveland area! They provide amazing services at a VERY REASONABLE price. The photographers and videographers are personable, fun, flexible, and the definition of professional!!! If you want your wedding to to be captured at its finest go with Prelude!

Working with Alyssa was amazing for both our engagement session and our wedding. She made sure to capture even the smallest details so we remember everything from our fairytale day.

Matt did the most wonderful job capturing our special day. We were amazed he was able to get all of the images he did. Deciding between the unbelievable amount of final images for our album was pain staking. However Matt and his team stuck by us and were patient during the entire time. We received our album the other day and were blown away. Truly breath taking! We would recommend Prelude to anyone, and we will!!

We chose Prelude photography because they were a part of The Wedding Showcase and worked with the DJ that we hired. I could not have chosen a better company. Alyssa photographed both our engagement pictures and wedding pictures and I am beyond pleased. She was willing to take suggestions of poses that I have seen and wanted to do but also had ideas of her own. She got every single shot that I asked for and all of our pictures turned out great. When she showed up to photograph the girls getting ready she let me know she was there but was not intrusive at all. That seemed to be very standard throughout the night. She got pictures of getting ready, the ceremony, decorations, dances and guests and made sure that she let us know when she was about to leave because she wanted to make sure that she got all of the shots that we wanted. We live a few hours away from where we got married and she was so easy to work with throughout the entire process. Although they typically meet with the bride a few weeks before the wedding to get final details and discuss what shots they definitely want, Alyssa talked to me on the phone and emailed lists and pictures back and forth to save me six hours of driving. With the package that we chose, we get the rights to print all of our pictures that they give us on a USB. Since we live so far away they offered to mail it to us to save yet another trip. We also used the photo booth from Prelude photography for our reception. The guests loved the idea of it but were disappointed when they went to take pictures and the attendant was not there. We got several complaints that this happened after the fact and I am a little disappointed. However, they did get some good pictures and they make a little book for you with all of the photos that the guests took throughout the night. All in all, I would recommend Prelude Photography and I would without a doubt recommend Alyssa as a photographer.

We just had our wedding done by Prelude. While our photographer was super nice, I feel like we didn't get a lot of the photos that we hoped for. I don't know if it was lack of experience on the part of the photographer or what, but I felt as though our photos were really nothing special. That being said, we had a pretty basic package that included one photographer and digital copies of our photos. I don't know if we got every single photo taken or if they only gave us the "good" ones and we just aren't very photogenic. Some altering like changing them to black and white or messing with different lights and blurring were done that we did not get the originals of and therefore cannot undo. If you use them, I would mention that you just want originals that you can then put into black and white yourself. We chose not to get an album because the samples that we saw were very childish, as if a high schooler put them together with crazy effects and bright colors that really seemed to take away from the photos themselves. However, they do offer digital copies, so you can put together your own album however you like. (we used Shutterfly)

I was so excited for the photo booth to be at our wedding, that I even called to confirm the spelling of my name. The girl on the phone said it would be correct (because I spell it different). I thought it was awesome they include a photo album HOWEVER, the photo booth spelled my name WRONG and our photo album included our guests pics with the wrong spelling!

This service was worth every penny. You definitely are getting quality work for a reasonable price. We just received our video and pictures, which only took a few weeks, and they are EXCEPTIONAL!

I love this place. My now husband and I have gone here for Holiday pictures and stuff so we decided to use them for our wedding. We are so happy with them! We got the photobooth too and they made it very special to match the Disney/Cinderella theme. Matt was so professional and got so many good pictures. We got our proof book in about 2 weeks; while I kept hearing other brides were still waiting months for theirs at other places. I will definitely continue to do all my photos here.

They were excellent, especially with the ceremony. They were very personable and excited about my wedding. I highly recommend them for all important events

My husband I were so happy with our photographer. He made our day fun and exciting. We loved our pictures and look forward to seeing all out products in the next couple weeks

Awesome

We had 2 photographers for our wedding ceremony, and the formal pictures and then 1 for the reception. They were awesome and the pictures turned out beautiful!!!!

The photographers did an amazing job! All the pictures came out wonderful!! We had one photographer in the day time part. Everyone was so comfortable working with him. He was very nice and fun- he even went back to the office and printed out some pictures and dropped them off before the reception started so they could be on display. We had a different photographer for the evening part who did a great job capturing all our special moments and our guests having a good time! She even took our wedding rings outside and did some fun photos of them.

Prelude Photography was a great choice. They offered many discounts and was helpful with our budget. Our photographer was great and very helpful getting us through the day. She was very personable and easy to work with.

We used Prelude Photography for our engagement and wedding pictures. The pictures came out beautiful and we had many to choose from. Matt was our photagrapher and was very easy to work with. He made us comfortable and made us laugh. He went above and beyond his contract to make sure our wedding was a day to remember.

The two photographers were very professional and accomidating. We were prepared with a list of photos at each location. They went right down the list and then began using there ideas. The owner was so nice and was willing to do anything to make our day and pictures wonderful. I would recommend them to anyone.
