I am very glad that I went with Lifetyme photo. Sometimes it was hit or miss getting in contact with Lifetyme Photo during office hours, but their product was amazing. I have the best wedding photos I have ever seen. I'm not bragging, this is my honest opinion. My photographer was Derrick Lee and he was outstanding. He had so much energy and charisma. He was everywhere! He took pictures of us I don't even remember taking and they were phenomenal. The outside of our venue was not the most attractive, probably the only thing wrong with the Rosewood. Well, Derrick took pictures of us outside that came out gorgeous. He captured the colors in the November sky. As far as getting our pictures back, how about within a week? No lie, we were still in the beautiful Dominican Republic on our honeymoon and our pics were ready to be picked up. Granted we didn't get any hard copy prints, but we got the best pics, best quality, high resolution and over 1500 pics too that are ours to do what we want with them. I was able to make great books for my inlaws and grandparents for Christmas of the wedding using snapfish. Derrick Lee and the turn around from Lifetyme was great and worth every penny!

I just can't say enough positive things about the amazing service and experience Lifetyme Portraits gave to us. Our photographer was quick and thorough and kept us having fun with it. Instead of taking time away from our the festivities, we felt she added to it. Everything about the experience was top notch class. From the initial phone call and meeting, to receiving a disk of all the photos just days after the wedding. And finally, the photos themselves are exquisite, some formals mixed with photo journalistic, to good old fashion fun photos of us and our family and friends. Couldn't have asked for more! Looking forward to getting our albums toogether! Thank you Lifetyme!!

Jay and team were fantastic from front to finish. I met them at a bridal show over a year before my wedding and was impressed with their follow up and personal touches from remembering our names and wedding details to specifics of our day, and this was before I hired them. Leading up to the big day they stayed in touch, were fantastic with payment options and extremely reasonably priced. My wedding was on TLCs 4 Weddings (yes - we won) and our photographer was fantastic working around the show production team (they had a lot of people there). She was kind, knowledgable and very professional. Our lo res photo cd was ready and in my hands within a week and the shots were amazing. After having a terrible DJ experience (they ran off with our money), it was so comforting to know that our photography choice was trusworthy and the company has been in business for many years. We could not be happier with everything and would recommend the Lifetyme team over and over again.

Lifetyme Photo & Video went over and beyond for our very special day. Both our photographers Lynnette and Tony were fabulous. After viewing their work I can tell you they were worth every cent.

We are extremely satisfied with the service we got from Lifetyme. Our actual photographer was Stan and he was phenomenal. He did a great job getting our 4yr old flower girl (who can be very difficult at times) to cooperate. I would highly recommend Jay and his Lyfetyme crew to anyone.

We went to Lifetyme after a few people at my job recommended them. Our first visit, I'll admit, I was a little blown away by the price, but Jay did not pressure me stating to go home, do some more research and see how we compare to other photo/video vendors. That is exactly what we did, and we found that Jay had given us the best pricing for everything in our package. Jay and his staff have treated my husband and I like we are family throughout our planning process, and we couldn't appreciate it enough, I had a TON of questions. The day of our wedding and we met Stan our photographer he was the best, he made everyone laugh and feel comfortable. He was kind enough to fill all of our photo requests and still do the customary ones. We received our disc of all the images and we were blown away, the photos are just gorgeous! We cannot wait to get our album!

Lifetime photo had the right price and explained everything up front. There were no hidden fees or drama. The process was smooth going but there were four things we were dissatisfied with... 1. We never met our photo and video guys until the 'Big' day, which bothered me 2. The photographer didn’t get a lot of important pictures we requested after we gave a detailed list. 3. The pictures were nice but the shots were off with a lot of the pics. with the lighting and we had a lot of pictures with members not looking or not placed properly. There were a lot of unwanted objects in many pictures that the photographer should have seen and placed us elsewhere or where the shot would not catch the unwanted background. To name a few unwanted background items; a wall AC unit, the shadows of a ceiling fan, fog lights in our outside pictures by the lake, and a flash in my Mothers hair which was the only good shot of my Mother and I out of only 3 mother daughter shots and then they wanted to charge $200.00 just to fix the white dot in my Mothers hair from the flash (which was their fault) when I know on Vista Print it's an easy fix and besides that don’t professional photographers have the special markers for quick fixes??? 4. I found out later after the wedding that the photographer lost his patience with some of the bride’s family members which was unacceptable despite how hectic it was! Maybe that's why so many pictures didn't come out good! Everything was smooth in the beginning but after waiting 24 weeks (six months)for the pictures and not being happy with most of the pictures (out of 600 shots)was a annoying. So Brides order your THANK YOU cards from a seperate vendor! Other than that our video quality was great and there wasn’t any excess video that didn’t need to be there, no background noise or interruptions. Their discretion was used wisely in the editing of the video and we are very happy with our video!

We used Lifetyme photo and video because of a recommendation from the wedding hall we chose. the matrede of the facility told us they were great and he had personally used them and had fantastic results. Being that this was such an important event in our lives and after hearing our friends tell us horror stories about their experiences, we wanted to use someone who can with a good recommendation. We initially went to our first meeting not knowing what to expect with price and quality, and ended up leaving feeling great about our decision to use them. The week leading to the wedding, the photographer called and went over everything that we needed to have ready for the big day. He calmed my nerves and made me excited to get these pictures taken. he was extremely familiar with the area we lived as well as the park we wanted to take pictures in so I felt confident that he would be great. On the day of the wedding he came earlier then expected which was great and began our picture taking. The entire time he was there with the bridal party he had us laughing and joking around. I had no doubt in my mind that the pictures would be coming out great. After finally seeing the final product of all of our pictures we absolutely fantastic. He was able to capture all of the moments that were the most special as well as take those candid shots that really the day. The only thing I was disappointed with was my engagement photo shoot. The pictures were done in studio and were too posey posey. Knowing our personalities this was not something that we are really into. They looked so unlike the two of us. It wasn't anything the photographer would have known going into it but we were slightly disappointed with those outcomes and ended up not ordering any of them. All in all we were both very happy with how the wedding photos came out and would use them again if the need presented itself.

Stan was very friendly and helpful, when my wife got black frosting on her dress he was quick with a shout wipe to her rescue. However there were times we were looking around and could not find him when needed and other times he was dancing on the floor with us instead of taking pictures of us. As for the pictures, we were given over 600 unedited pictures on a cd; of these pictures a lot of them were bad angels or awkward lighting where things appeared to be different colors then reality. Over all we chose lifettyme b/c of their cost. We were on a tight budget and they offered the lowest price.

This is the second time I've used Lifetyme Photo & Video. They are very accommodating and give terrific service. Our photographer was energetic and he seemed to be everywhere without being intrusive. Even my guests made positive comments about him! It was also great to see Jay. He popped in to make sure everything was going as I had hoped. And, of course, the pictures are fabulous!

The photographer was ontime, friendly, and listened to all requests. He even allowed other people to take photos after him before the next photo pose.
