| - We booked Gin and Sake for our wedding shoot. They were absolutely fantastic from beginning to end. I can't say enough good things about them and would recommend them for anyone looking for something really unique and special for their own photo shoot.
When I started doing research for my wedding, I was looking for a photographer who was capable of creating images which were a little more unusual than most. What immediately spiked my attention was some of the more quirky photos on the website - this was exactly the sort of thing i was looking for. We were having a 1920's theme, and I wanted to get some images that made you feel like you had actually gone back in time. In addition, my partner thought it would be a good idea to do a photo shoot with the entire wedding party - so we had laid out quite the challenge.
Brandon certainly did not disappoint. In one of the first emails back to me, he suggested that we get the group together during the reception to shoot some portraits in costume, so that he could re-create a Gatsby styled movie poster. This was such a great idea - I was sold the minute he came up with it!
During our shoot, I could tell that Brandon came well researched and prepared for a great day. Happily squeezing into a party bus chock a block full of crazy Aussies - he took the group to some of the most fabulous and unusual locations around Vegas. One of the most memorable places we stopped was down an alleyway which contained really great industrial signs, pipes and streetlights in the background. We got the most perfect Old-Hollywood photos at this location - some individual... some group... all awesome!
Beyond this fabulous pre-wedding shoot, in my opinion, the thing that really cemented Brandon's skills and flair for photography, is how well he was able to capture all of the moments across the whole event. From the second the doors swung open at the ceremony, right through all of the speeches, and afterwards at the reception. he was able to effectively depict everyone's expressions and reactions perfectly. As a directly result of his professional capability, I am now able to remember all of the parts of the ceremony and different moments during the speeches in great detail. The day goes by so quickly and would otherwise be such a blur.
All of the photos we have received are superb. Words can't fully express how thrilled we are with each and every one of them. The back street photos were spot on... our fantastic group photos with everyone in costume with our props and the awesome industrial background..... the glamour photos presented in black and white which made us look like movies stars, the spectacular coverage of the ceremony and the reception, and finally the Gatsby posters!
The images that Brandon and Jill have been able to create well beyond our wildest imagination. We are so grateful to have the most fabulous memento to enjoy for the rest of our lives. Thanks so much Gin and Sake - you guys are the best!
