“From our first phone call we knew our wedding wouldn't be complete without Jamal and Lashana. While we couldn't meet in person at first due to the pandemic, they answered all of our questions/requests professionally and timely over the phone or by email. After our first phone call meeting, we felt confident that we made the right decision. All of us were laughing and telling jokes that we couldn't wait to see what working with them in person would be like. We also loved the fact that the package we got had a free engagement shoot with it as well, especially since we were quite young when we got engaged and couldn't afford one at the time. It also helped us get use to being in front of the camera, something we both aren't usually comfortable with as we typically feel "unphotogenic". The entire process was so laid back and Jamal truly gave us some stunning images--while managing to hide the fact our shoot took place during a seriously overcasted day in August (Thanks, New England weather). Now, as for the day of the wedding we couldn't believe how much these two did for us besides capturing some of the best photos of us to date. Not only did they show up early for us, on a Thursday no less, but they both made sure that we kept to our schedules and had enough time to get some of the non-traditional shots that were important to us. Lashana especially helped myself (the bride) get ready and kept me calm all the way from the first moment she arrived up until my husbands and I's first look. Not only that, she kept the party going and the dance floor packed when it was time for the reception. As for Jamal, he did a fantastic job of making it feel like we weren't just taking photos all day. We actually got to experience different parts of our wedding (like cocktail hour) because he was so efficient earlier in the day and made sure we had time to unwind and enjoy the day. The two also took behind the scenes videos of different points of the day which meant a lot for us to see/keep since we didn't hire a videographer and had an unplugged ceremony. You can tell that Jamal and Lashana not only love what they do, but care about capturing memories as well as creating them with their couples. We received so much feedbacks from guests after the wedding about how much fun Lashana was to dance with or how much they loved talking to Jamal. We can't wait to get our photos printed and are looking forward to working with these two again in the future during the next milestone in our lives. We seriously can't thank these two enough and know that every wedding they get to be a part of will be filled with as many laughs and memories as ours.”
