Cory L. says, "I searched through many, many, many photographers' photos for my October wedding. Let me just say, searching on wedding photographers' websites can start to make every wedding look the same and leave a bride feeling that she is bound for a generic feel to her wedding - even though it should feel special and personable . I even met with a few photographers who were very stuck in their ways for what "works" and gave me the impression that they would feel intrusive on the day rather than just capturing it. When I came across the work of Joie Elie Photography, it immediately stood out to me! Every wedding felt unique... they were really capturing the essence of the couple. The first thing that set Joie Elie apart from other photographers were their engagement session photos. Then when I met with Joie Elie's lead photographer Joe and his wife Vickie, they put together the perfect package for me and they worked within my budget. I couldn't have been happier with our unbelievably gorgeous engagement photo shoot and our wedding day photos. Joe was like a ninja at our wedding - capturing every detail and creatively and artistically piecing together the memories that will last us our lifetime - but never getting in the way of the events. I couldn't believe the photos he captured while me and my husband along with our guests were never aware of him at all. We have so many beautiful portraits and he did them in record time so we could just ENJOY our wedding day - rather spending a lot of time posing for photos. I could not have been happier when I saw the photos and I have received so many compliments on them. Most importantly, Joie Elie created my lasting wedding memories more BEAUTIFUL than I could have ever imagined - timeless, elegant, personable photos that my husband and I just cherish!!"See more
