Magical Moments Captured: A Breathtaking Experience with The Lightbox

We had the pleasure of working with our incredible photographers, Mark and Mike from The Lightbox, for both our engagement and wedding, and we couldn't be more thrilled with our experience. From our very first meeting, it was clear that they were larger-than-life individuals, brimming with passion and dedication to their craft.

Their warmth and enthusiasm made us feel completely at ease, allowing our genuine emotions to shine through in every breathtaking shot. They took the time to understand our vision, capturing not just moments but the magical essence of our love story. Every photograph is a testament to their meticulous attention to detail and artistic flair.

On our wedding day, they seamlessly collaborated with all our vendors, creating a harmonious atmosphere that allowed everything to flow effortlessly. Their ability to blend into the day made it feel natural and unforced while ensuring that each heartfelt moment was beautifully captured.

The result? A stunning collection of images that we will cherish for a lifetime. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking not just photographers, but true artists who pour their heart and soul into their work. Thank you, Mark and Mike, for capturing our special moments and turning them into timeless memories! ✨

Incredible memories captured forever

I want to start the review by saying I (the groom) am not much of a picture guy but both Mike and Mark were incredibly attentive and made the experience completely painless. We got our sneak peak album almost immediately after the wedding which followed by our final album only 2 weeks after the wedding.

We strongly recommend this company to anyone who has a special event that they want to have captured forever.

We booked this company for both our engagement shoot and the wedding day and we have no regret. The guidance and vision the team provided and our appreciation for both the photographers we worked with will never be forgotten.

100% recommend this company if you want to have no regret about capturing any big event.

Thank you both again.

Would Get Married Again

An experience we wouldn't forget - we would get married again just to take wedding photos with Mark and Mike. From the engagement to the wedding shoot, they both arrived early to scope out the area to ensure that we got enough photos during the slotted times and are extremely professional.

We had both our dogs in our photos and they were both extremely patience with the pups getting into position. We had our engagement shoot sometime April by the lake and with Canadian weather, you never know when it's raining, sunny or snowing. Mark was kind enough to bring jackets for me incase I got really cold during the shoot.

I would definitely recommend them to everyone.

Amazing duo

Mark and Mike have provided us with the best photos we could have asked for. Our meetings with them were always so professional and outlined what type of photos to expect from their services. We had seen the type of work they provided my sister for her wedding and the experience they gave them really showed in the result of the photos. They made everyone feel comfortable when taking photos of the wedding party because they are very easy to talk to. Mark and Mike provided previews just a week after our wedding and we were very surprised at how fast we got to look back at our special day. When we got the rest of the photos a few weeks after we were very impressed and are happy that we booked them for our wedding. You will not be disappointed with the experience and photos with Mike and Mark.

May 19 Proposal

I met Mark after my fiance took us to The Well and did a surprise proposal. I was really shocked to see how amazing the photos turned out. I’m camera shy but Mark did such an amazing job! I recommend him and his team. Thank you so much!

The best service and the best people

We were really impressed with the professionalism, quality of photos and speed of service provided by Mike and Mark. They provided us with photo "previews" just one week after our wedding allowing us to relive the special day right away. The final photos were also delivered within a couple weeks and we are so happy with the results! Mike and Mark were also really easy to work with making sure we felt comfortable beings ourselves infront of the camera. I am so glad to say that we not only got the best photographers for our wedding but we've also gained two new friends. You will not regret booking them!
