    We are very happy that we went with David as our photographer. David was easy going and had a good idea of the vibe we were going for. He was excellent at giving us pointers and directions when needed. He was friendly and we love how the photographs turned out. We recommend David as your wedding-event photographer. Thank you David!

  • Gorgeous photos!

    We loved having Santana and Anna as our photographers! We used the 1.5 package, and Santana was our primary photographer. They were highly professional, easy to work with, and punctual. Santana had a video chat with us a couple weeks before our wedding, and he made sure to cover every detail of the day so that we would be happy with the photos! They were very kind throughout our entire day, and they were great with coordinating our family photos so we could stay on schedule. The photos we received afterwards were absolutely gorgeous! Santana and Anna made sure to capture our favorite moments, and even did an extra photo session during golden hour that gave us the most beautiful photos. I would hire them again in a heartbeat!

    My husband and I were very happy to find photography in our budget through Yellow Paddle. I didn’t really interact with the company at all, but Mark and Santana were both excellent. Our primary photographer was Mark Whitrock. He did our engagement photos and our wedding. He suggested a beautiful location for our engagement photos and they turned out great. He used both film and digital which was not something we had an opinion on, but we really loved how the film ones turned out. Mark had good suggestions for posing and was also happy to try out our ideas. He was easy to get a hold of over text as well as having a phone call with us right before the wedding to make sure we were on the same page. He was respectful, approachable, timely and easy to work with. We love how the outdoor photos from our wedding turned out, they were true to life in style/color. He also caught some candid shots that I hadn’t thought of which were a nice surprise. Santana Garcia was our second shooter and his work is stunning. His editing style was not something I was particularly looking for but I’m in love with how the photos turned out. The style and lighting is beautiful and the vividness of red (our wedding color) still came through. I didn’t communicate with him directly before the wedding, but he was timely, easy to work with, and brought some of his own ideas which we appreciated. He caught detail shots at both the ceremony and the reception I hadn’t thought to ask for. Dancing was a big and important part of our reception and he did an amazing job capturing crisp, beautiful photos of people in motion in dimmer lighting. We had a panicked moment the night before where we realized we wanted the ceremony to be recorded (not edited or anything special, just captured) and Mark and Santana made it happen for us which was truly above and beyond their jobs and meant a lot to us.

  • Santana was AMAZING! 10 out of 10 recommend!

    Santana was AMAZING! Professional in communication before the wedding to make sure he understood all the shots we needed, showed up early on the day of the wedding to check out the location and pick the perfect spot for our reveal. Even when a groomsmen went missing, he helped us problem solve the pics that could be taken and took extra time after the wedding to get all our wedding party photographed. He went above and beyond to make our day special and stress free. Plus he did an AMAZING job making our diverse wedding party look their best in the finished pictures. 10 out of 10 recommend!
