Allmeid Events

not reiterate how disappointed I am in this company. Please do not book them for your wedding or any event. I have no words to describe how upset I am with Derwin and his team. I have spent many days crying over how awful my photos are. When I first met Derwin, I made it very clear what my vision was for my wedding photos. I wanted bright photos, something that his portfolio portrayed online. When I got my photos, I was so disappointed. All my photos from the reception were AWFUL! They were all dark and extremely messy. It is my opinion that his team rushed my photos and barely worked on them. When I spoke to Derwin after the wedding he claims he had no recollection of mentioning wanting “bright photos”- he is wrong. Not to mention he picked the WORST photos for my gallery. Eyes closed, cranes in the background and not to mention how dark the photos were. He also claims that I need to stop comparing myself to other weddings, but he is wrong. I booked him because he had a certain “look” that all his photos have. I wanted that look and I did not get it. When I spoke to him and expressed my feelings about my dislike for my photos, he blamed everyone in my team and refused to take accountability for the quality of the photos. He blamed the venue for the “poor lighting” when in reality it is the photographers job to work the lighting. The photos my florist sent looked better than the professional photos. When I mentioned that to Derwin he said “well good for you” Derwin also had a very bad tendency of ignoring texts and not being the best at communicating with me. His team also blocked me on Instagram after I told him that I reached out to a former bride and asked what kind of lighting she used for her wedding. We had our wedding at the same venue, but our photos were extremely different. Derwin did not like that apparently and had blocked me off instagram. Extremely unprofessional. He was also being extremely difficult about the raw photos. He originally agreed to send them over and then changed his mind. It was like pulling teeth with him. I gave up reaching out to him due to lack of communication and honestly I do not feel comfortable speaking to him anymore. He promised to edit the photos I did not like, but to be honest I don’t know how much he can do to fix the photos. I attached photos that Derwin’s team took vs photos my florist took off his iPhone. It’s almost like day and night. I also want to add that it has been over 4 months since the wedding and I still do not have the edits. At this point I am convinced I will never see these "Edits" Overall, I am very sad that at the end this is how the relationship had to end. I would highly suggest for you to not book his team for your wedding day.
