Cost: very reasonable!
Review, written by the bride:
We were married in early August, and it has taken some time for us to find the adequate words to say "Thank you" via our review of their services to the Liam Crotty team for their exceptional coverage of our very special day.
Our first contact was made several months before the wedding, and Liam was there on the phone with me making arrangements, confirming dates, locations and services personally. The Office Manager was instrumental as well, and made sure that we had everything we needed in place (with regards to photo and video) on our wedding day.
There were detailed planning calls, to make sure that we knew what group photos we wanted, where we might want them at the venue, all the details. Liam's team made sure no question was left unanswered.
Initially, we had booked one of the staff photographers and videographers, and at the last moment, we were told that Liam himself was available to capture our wedding day. We didn't think about it too much, we said "Yes!", paid the fee required to have Liam join us on our day, and waited for our day to arrive.
Wedding Day: Marco arrived early to the Church, and MJ made quick and great work of getting some excellent shots of him before the ceremony. MJ captured the venue details as well, beautifully.
I didn't notice photographs being taken of me, or the videographer capturing the walk - that is how discreet the Team is. Only specific moments were paused, ever so momentarily, to capture really excellent shots.
Group photos were handled by Liam. Liam kept me calm, all while capturing the (literally) dozens of group photographs which we required (it was an incredible list of around 50 group photos, with different permutations of the guests).
After the group photos, we went for a stroll, groom + me and Liam + Antonio, to capture portraits of us. They are a very creative team and if you engage their services, let them loose! We ended up with incredible shots of us + the venue.
We had photography done at the reception (Fogo de Chao) as well, of the venue + cake cutting + candids.
I am running out of space! Character limits are awful. Delivery of photos+videos (high definition!) was very fast and secure, as well. Excellent service all around, start to finish. Book their services now!
THANK YOU Liam Crotty Photography for capturing our day.
