Amazing Photographer

Amazing Photographer!

We used John for our wedding and he was an absolutely blast to work with. We interviewed a couple photographers before deciding to go with John and all I can say was we were thoroughly impressed. John always went the extra mile to make us feel comfortable before the big day. He was always available for calls and always shared his suggestions and experiences to help us make our day more memorable for us and our guests. Working with John was like working with an old friend, comfortable and trusting.

All I can say is I would highly recommend John for any event; You won't be disappointed.

John is a great guy and to say he is a talented photographer would be an understatement. The pictures he took for our elopement were the best I have seen. The value in his service and his artistic ability is second to none. Call john, you cant go wrong!

John is a pleasure to work with! We work with him for all our events and there is no one we trust more to capture our important memories!

The quality of his pictures is fantastic! We also took the GIF Booth for the reception and got so many great compliments! Our guests had so much fun with the booth and we will for sure be using it again!

Thanks John and your amazing team!

Overall my experience with John Koo Photography was excellent which is why I am giving 5 out of 5 stars! I had a very intimate wedding party of 7 people (bride, groom, bride's grandparent's, groom's one grandma and a best man & maid of honor) and the only thing I would of done differently was ensure I had more pictures of both grandmothers. To John's credit, one grandmother was 92 and just couldn't get around very well (she had to stay in the car due to walking limitations) and the other one is a Southern bell (I'm from Texas and our wedding was in Montreal) who was polite and kept her company why the rest of us took pictures, but for those reasons I didn't have as many pictures with them as I would of liked.

However, the pictures I did get with them were great, I just wish there would have been more since they are such awesome ladies =)

John's KOOL Photobooth was amazing and by far the best addition to our wedding! We were so happy with it, and John is such a pleasure to work with: he is detail-oriented, genuine, invested with the project and his work, and flexible even with a very picky couple such as ourselves who took forever to make the decision. ALL of our guests had an amazing time at the Photobooth and my now-husband and I are SO thrilled we went with John Koo's KOOL Photobooth.

John is an absolute pleasure to deal with, John is very honest and professional. He delivered good value for the products and services that he provided. One thing I admire is his creative side, he's got a good eye for things and he's well skilled with his lens. He made an ordinary background look extraordinary. I highly recommended John. After the wedding, everybody was still talking about the KOOL photobooth, it was hilarious.

Thank you very much John for making our day easier and fun. You created wonderful memories us!
