Abella Studios

Cheap cheap cheap. Our photographer was lovely overall; however, a number of photos were taken in poorly lit areas with half the people in photos having a shadow on them.  The experience of choosing the photos for the album was incredibly convoluted. I just received my wedding album and apparently the "silver package" gets you more of a booklet than a wedding book. Horrendous! Photos are dark and dingey. The wedding "booklet" didn't even come with a title page or a cover with our names or the date of the event!!! What kind of trash is this?!?! Cheap cheap cheap cheap!!!! Stay away.

We are so beyond impressed with every single aspect of Abella Studios! We could not have asked for a more helpful team along the way with planning. Our wedding photos exceeded every expectation we ever had! Our Same Day Edit captured all of the special moments of our day perfectly! The team of photographers and cinematographers were simply incredible. They were extremely friendly and took the time to really make our vision of photos and videos come to life. Our sister used Abella Studios for her wedding and our brother will be using them this coming summer. I will always recommend Abella to every bride and groom looking for photos and videos!

PLEASE READ MY RESPONSE AT THE BOTTOM TO THE BUSINESS. Cheap cheap cheap. Our photographer was lovely; however, the experience of choosing the photos for the album was incredibly convoluted. I just received my wedding album and aparently the "silver package" gets you more of a booklet than a wedding book. Horrendous! Photos are dark and dingy. The wedding "booklet" didn't even come with a title page, our names or the date of the event!!! What kind of trash is this?! Cheap cheap cheap cheap!!!! _______ Thank you for responding. The process for choosing photos was convoluted and confusing, hence why it took me years to invest the time and energy to finish my wedding book. It was incredibly frustrating just even accessing the album. Secondly, the "silver package" was not even the base package and it cost a few thousand dollars. When I inquired about a title page or a cover page, I was told it would cost hundreds of dollars on top of the thousands I had already spent on the package which included day-of photography and a wedding book. Your explanation is that "all I had to do was reach out" regarding upgrades...leaving out how expensive those "upgrades" would be. It is pretty standard to have a wedding book cover with atleast the name of the couple and the wedding date. Apparently, such a basic feature is not included. The photos were incredibly dark because the photographer took photos in shadowy parts of the venue and Abella couldn't edit the photos or enhance the contrast to fix that. Also, NO ONE ANSWERS THE PHONE at Abella. There are three locations, I would call all 3 and it would ring endlessly. Abella, you do not offer a premium product by any means. I will attach a photos of the abysmal album cover...faceless, nameless, bland and tacky.

We hired Abella for both our videography and photography because they were listed as a preferred vendor for the Shadowbrook. While the videography, and the same day edit were AMAZING, the photography was SO AWFUL,that I have to warn others to never use this company for your photography needs.....I am literally sick in my stomach over how horrific the wedding photos are.......while we got 3,000 photo proofs back, most were 100s of the same exact shot, the way a teenager takes photos with an iPhone.......the shots were all in the same location, boring and completely unimaginative. The photographer left one groomsman out of all the pictures because he was in the bathroom, there are NO shots of the guests dancing, NO shots of the Viennese spectacular which was amazing, NO candids, and not even a single shot of them leaving the wedding AT ALL, I think the photographer must have left the wedding early! NOTHING special at all, and honestly someone with an iPhone would have done a better job. While the same day edit was amazing, NEVER hire this company for photography.....they were AWFUL, I wish I could give them no stars !!! Also, I went back and looked at Shadowbrook vendor list now and they have been removed.....too little, too late for us, but indicative of the poor quality of their work.

Thanks to our fantastic photography team from Abella - Tomasz, Julius, and Max. The photos came out perfect and my wife is beyond thrilled. The teamed worked very hard the day of the wedding, and we appreciate everything they did for us. Thanks for the professionalism, great attitudes, and excellent quality photos!
