As a professional photographer myself, I (An) am naturally quite particular about quality, creativity, and equipment. QH Concept exceeded every expectation! First and foremost, their creativity is unparalleled. Hayley and Daniel approached our photoshoot with fresh, artistic ideas that perfectly captured our personalities and the emotions of the day. They have an incredible ability to turn any setting into a stunning work of art and also fun photos that we want. Their friendly and approachable method made the entire experience truly enjoyable. From the very start, they helped us feel at ease in front of the camera, which is no small feat considering how nerve-wracking it can sometimes be. Their warm and professional approach made it easy for us to relax and just be ourselves, and it really shows in the photos. Another standout aspect is their top-of-the-line equipment. As someone who understands the importance of good gear, I was genuinely impressed with the level of investment QH Concept has made in their tools.

Words cannot begin to express our gratitude for this team and their dedication, professionalism, and craftsmanship. They truly delivered the wedding film of our dreams. From start to finish, they were responsive and really cared to understand our vision and what were looking for. No vendor has ever maintained such consistent communication and the woman we spoke to at the start answered all my questions and really made me feel confident in choosing them. Our prep call with videographer, Patrick, was so professional and thorough. He went moment by moment asking what we wanted captured at every stage of our wedding day. He was so meticulous and detail-oriented. He was legitimately writing every single thing done and asking specific questions to make sure he didn’t miss anything. And on the day, he and the other videographers were on time, friendly, knew when and how to capture the perfect shots, all while not making it awkward or being too intrusive. We had very special items and details we wanted captured. They didn’t miss a single thing. From a special rosary to my father-bride reveal to adorable moments of our flower girl, every single thing we hoped would be remembered, it was there on film. Oh not to mention, they are one of the few business I could find that didn’t *just* deliver a 3-5 minute trailer, but also a much longer video of your whole day. And yay for gorgeous drone footage! I grew up watching these types of wedding videos as a little girl, hoping one day I might have one of my own. EZ Production really made my dream come true.

Authentic moments and real love stories. Wedding photos that feel like you. For me, the most important part of your wedding day is that you enjoy it. I have 10+ years and 200+ weddings of experience, and I genuinely love my job. Queer/LGBTQ+ friendly - always.

First of all, Sasha is one of the only photographers that I work with. As a performing musician, I am very self conscious, have a lot of imposter syndrome, and can be really uncomfortable putting my own image out there. I have worked with Sasha consistently for my artist portraits because she knows how to help me get over those aspects and get the best out of me. When it came time to pick a photographer for my wedding, it was a no brainer. Sasha is patient, personable, and has SUCH an eye for lighting and color. I recommend her to anyone and everyone!

DJ Tay worked with us in the months leading up to the wedding to coordinate instrumental piano covers for our ceremony which turned out beautifully. We also gave him a spreadsheet with songs we definitely wanted to play, others that were maybes and a few not to. He worked off this list but there were still a lot of songs I’d hoped to play that we didn’t hear, and also a handful I hadn’t asked for - but it is what it is. He also brought some great colorful lighting and uplights for the space which really added to the vibe. Overall Taylor did a good job DJ-ing our wedding reception! (Some fun hora photos to share)

Katelynn made the planning of our wedding a pleasure. She was organized, always upbeat, has a great network, excellent ideas, yet not afraid to push back when needed. She kept the process moving along which allowed us to mostly enjoy the whole thing. She set us up for an amazing wedding, more beautiful than we could have even imagined. We loved working with her and recommend her wholeheartedly.

We had the most magical day of our lives getting married at the Hampshire House in early May this year. Right from the get go, Hampshire House checked all our boxes when it came to what we were looking for in a wedding venue. It has that old New England charm, is located right next to the beautiful Public Gardens and is the perfect size for an intimate, small to medium sized wedding (we had 60-70 guests in attendance). Most of all, the food here is beyond exceptional and some of the best we’ve had. We are major foodies, and having food that was well-plated, generously portioned, and above all delicious and memorable was a high priority item for us. We were lucky enough to be able to work with Sydney Turnbull and the Hampshire house team. Sydney is the most kind, professional, and detail-oriented catering sales manager and event coordinator and thanks to her, all our venue planning with Hampshire House was truly smooth sailing and stress-free. Sydney constantly kept us in the loop with next steps in our planning timeline, offering thoughtful recommendations and suggestions for our wedding (such as floral placements during our ceremony, order and timing of toasts/speeches, seating arrangements, the list goes on!) She kept in contact with all our vendors, always promptly responded to our many emails, walked us through all the steps during our ceremony rehearsal —somehow making it seem much less daunting, and on our big day Sydney seemed to always be one step ahead, preparing and leading us through every portion of our wedding timeline in such a seamless way. Lastly, since our wedding ended late into the evening, Hampshire House thoughtfully held on to and organized all our florals, and various wedding signage and other items so that we were able to return and pick it up at the venue on a following day. This made it so we didn’t have to worry about anything at all night of and could end our wedding day with the peace of mind that everything was taken care of. Truly, we cannot recommend Sydney and the Hampshire House enough and if we were to do it all over again, we wouldn’t change a thing!
