Sylvia and Paul, Ben and I want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being apart of our wedding day. You are both amazing at what you do and your passion definitely shows through in your work! We were a little worried about having our pictures taken, but you made it fun, relaxing and stress free. We had a blast and the pictures are absolutely beautiful! We will absolutely recommend you to all of our friends and family!

AbsolutlyI would recommend Paul andSylvia to anyone getting Married!
They were more than just Photographers to us. They took the time to talk with us- they really got us relaxed and made the experience fun. Sylvia and Paul were also able to capture the vulnerable intimate moments and I was 100% comfortable sharing those moments with them because of who they are as people.It was really captured through the photos that are now our memories to share with our kids and family. They took the time to get involved in not just our Wedding day but the whole process! They really took an interest in us as a couple and took the time to see what direction we wanted to go in theam wise (Classic, Photojournalism, Portraiture etc.).

Paul & Sylvia are so easy to work with. Planning a wedding was truthfully a stressful experience, but they made the photography aspect so easy. They have affordable packages with valued service, so trusting them to shoot our wedding was sincerely an honour. One of the most fun experiences was having Paul direct us throughout our session. We're obviously just everyday people (with no modelling background!), but he sure knows how to make you feel like special on such an important day. He's got a great eye and great partner that supported him and us as a couple. Wedding photographs are there to help document your highly-anticipated day; Paul & Sylvia gave us more than that. They gave us the confidence that we made the right decision for our attire, decor, food, wedding gifts and the list goes on. Thank you for everything, Paul & Sylvia. You continue to be a part of our memorable day!! xoxo Danielle & Jeremy

We couldn’t imagine having anyone else capturing our special day! From the day we met you both at the bridal show, we clicked with you. We knew we made the right choice when you shared our passion for NYC with us and were willing to make the trip with us to the Big Apple for our engagement shoot! Traveling is not always easy and even with flight delays etc. you both managed to keep us calm during the process and captured some unforgettable pictures in one of our favourite cities. We received beautiful prints from our engagement photos, which we displayed at the wedding.

Planning a wedding can be a very stressful time but the whole planning process with Paul and Sylvia was flawless. They got to know us as a couple and made us feel at ease. This feeling continued on our wedding day. They captured so many authentic candid moments. I love having these photos to look back on and remember.

Our wedding album is perfection! Shortly after our wedding, they came over and went over all the options for the albums with us. They made recommendations to us and walked us through the process pressure free! The end result is lovely. Our parents love their albums too. Highly recommended!

From the minute we met Paul & Sylvia at the Wedding Show, we knew that they were the perfect wedding photographers! Both Paul & Sylvia are so easy to work with, down to earth, and worked extremely well together! They truly captured our engagement and wedding so creatively and beautifully. When weather was not cooperating with us for photos, Paul could sense I was upset, but promised me beautiful photos no matter what. He was quick to come up with a back up plan, and he truly did keep his promise. Our wedding photos (through down pours of rain) turned out so beautiful that we forgot all about where we were taking the photos and were so thankful that we chose them for our wedding. Without a doubt, we would sincerely recommend Paul & Sylvia, you won't be disappointed!

We couldn't be happier with our experience with Paul & Sylvia. They were professional and reliable and our pictures were everything we imagined and more. We have nothing but wonderful things to say about them and if we were to do it again they'd be right there capturing our day all over again. We have and will continue to refer them to all of our family and friends.

We found Paul and Sylvia from an internet search. Our intentions were to meet a couple different photographers before choosing the one for our wedding. They were the first people we met, and the last. We knew right away that they would be exactly what we wanted.

For someone like myself who is pretty shy, especially in front of the camera, Paul & Sylvia made me feel so comfortable. They were awesome, and the photos were perfect.

Where do I even start with Paul & Syvlia. These two are truly AMAZING!!!!
Our first time meeting Paul & Sylvia we were not even engaged and all
ready we had such a great strong connection. Once we finally got engaged that same year we knew we didn't have to worry about finding us a photographer, our mind was made up before that. Paul & Sylvia are fantastic at what they do, they captured every moment of our special day.
The connection we had made posing for our pictures so much easier...we were so comfortable with them. You know you chose a great photographer when your bridal party and family RAVE about how great they are and your friends who are getting married in the future want them and the friends who are already married wished they had picked them. ??
They are so patient, easygoing and fun! They are truthful and give GREAT advice and tips to make your day flow easily. If you are looking for not only a GREAT photographer but great friends who will share and capture all your special moments on your big day with you then Paul & Sylvia are perfect for you.
You guys both are SUPER INCREDIBLE at what you do and we are so truly blessed that we chose you guys to share and capture our special day!
You two are a very big part on why our day was truly one we will never forget. Xoxoxo
