Solas Studios

ral phone calls to plan our special day when we couldn't be nearby. I definitely encourage an engagement session, it helped us get to know them and them to know us so there were no surprises on the wedding day! Besides the amazing photos, I LOVE how we planned EVERY MINUTE of our wedding coverage so neither of them missed a beat. They knew our schedule and stuck to it, and were great with coming up with a plan B when it rained! The photos turned out gorgeous, and they are continuing to work with us in a very timely manner to get us the prints and photo album we want. We wholeheartedly recommend them!!!!

sy going, and even willing to do some of our own ideas! We laughed and joked which made everything for us more comfortable since we all know i am way more comfortable behind the camera than in front lol. The end product was beautiful and we couldn't be happier to have found them and have them capture our special day for us! Highly recommend choosing Colleen and Greg for your wedding if you want a ton of awesome, fun, high quality images to remember your day by!

is no way to describe in words how beautiful their photos are and how accurately they captured our personalities and the feel of our wedding. The compliments on our photos from family and friends are never ending. You have to see them for yourself! They were also incredibly easy to work with. They helped us coordinate our entire day-of schedule and gave us great tried and true advice that made the entire day go smoothly. They also had a very efficient system of collecting information on preferences, so I didn't feel like I had to repeat myself over and over as I did with other vendors. And DEFINITELY do the engagement session! I was so skeptical but the photos have a feel of their own separate and are just as special as the wedding photos. They are also going above and beyond to help us design a custom wedding album that is going to be a family treasure for years and years. I cannot recommend Colleen and Greg enough, we promise you will NOT be disappointed in these amazingly talented, organized and kind photographers!! Thank you both for making our wedding day amazing and capturing every detail!!!

nted to utilize them as my wedding photographers for my wedding in Connecticut (unfortunately they were already booked)! I think with all couples it is a bit awkward taking heartfelt photos in a public area. After a few shots had passed, they had my fiancé and I at ease. We took a wide variety of shots and the end results were absolutely breathtaking. We had a hard time narrowing down the shots we wanted in our engagement book. Many couples have looked at our book and have made comments like, "Wow, I wish my engagement photos looked like that." You will not be disappointed if you work with Solas. Colleen and Greg are two caring people that will provide you with only the best.

task. The engagement and wedding photos came out perfect. We highly recommend them.

oping for. I would and will use them again for other photography needs!

ith our crazy bridal party, yet capturing so many special photos. They were fun and professional, as was the assistant they brought along. The photos from our day are absolutely stunning. They captured so many priceless moments that we will always love!!

tfelt moments that they caught with their photos. Their prices were also some of the most reasonable I found. After meeting with Colleen and Greg, they seemed very personable and organized. They sent out a series of questionnaires to help make sure they got a good feel for what we wanted. The questionnaires were actually very helpful to me while planning, because they brought up parts of my wedding day timeline that I needed to include and otherwise would never have thought about. The actual day of the wedding Colleen and Greg were awesome. They were cheerful and relaxed, while still being organized and professional. They seemed like they were having fun and really enjoying what they do. It was nice having both of them there, so many angles and aspects of the wedding were caught all at the same time. They were also great at getting the formal photos done in a short period of time. While most of their packages include full day coverage, we chose one that had 6 hours of coverage. Unfortunately, it was pouring rain on our wedding day, so we decided to do fewer formal photos. Colleen and Greg were able to get beautiful shots, even in a dark indoor venue they captured gorgeous colors and flattering lighting. They also got some amazing shots of my husband and I in the rain (under umbrellas). Colleen and Greg were willing to get soaked in order to get artistic portraits. They even stayed later in the night to make sure they got a large number of guest pictures too. Overall, out of all of my vendors, I am most happy with my choice of Solas Studios. They are a great team, you can't go wrong. The only thing I would have changed is to have chosen a bigger package so we could have had an engagement session too. (My husband and I had even thought about doing a "honeymoon shoot" to make up for it.)

They told us about themselves and took the time to get to know us and our story. They were able to handle our crazy wedding party and our pictures are amazing. We did the engagement session, which I highly recommend. It gave us time to get comfortable with them and made things easier on the day of the wedding. Plus we got some amazing photos from it.

us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Their creative vision and expertise in photography is impressive, and we have so many photos that we love from our wedding and engagement session. They truly captured the essence of our event, looking through the photos makes me smile every time. We highly recommend hiring Solas Studios for any event.

wedding day. We felt that we “clicked” with Colleen and Greg from our very first video chat. We could tell that their passion for what they do, the way they wanted to get to know us as a couple, and all of their creative and unique ideas were just what we were looking for in photographers for our wedding. Solas Studios came highly recommended to us from our wedding venue. As soon as we saw their work, we knew we had made our final decision! We were so excited when Colleen and Greg were willing to make the trip to NJ for our engagement shoot. We had so much fun with them that day! They made us feel so comfortable being photographed as we were nervous about being ourselves and looking natural on camera. They even happily entertained the idea of bringing our dog along for most of the day! We were blown away by the results of our engagement shoot, complete with an appearance by King Kong! We could not wait to see more! As personable and fun as Colleen and Greg are to be around, they are equally as professional, organized, and full of wisdom and creativity! Their questionnaire and advice they provided us throughout our planning process (which we did mostly from across the country) helped guide us to think through and make some critical decisions about how we wanted our big day to be captured. They had so many great ideas and words of wisdom to share, we were always saying to each other how much we loved working with them and how we couldn't wait to have them by our side throughout our day! To say that Colleen and Greg went above and beyond to capture our day and help everything run beautifully would be an understatement. From beating the heat (almost 90 degrees!), unexpected schedule changes, and capturing many meaningful moments the Solas Studios team really helped us keep our cool and our focus on what is most important during our special day. Their assistant, Paula, was amazing and stopped at nothing to lend her helping hands when needed, even to help zip the dress! One of the ways you can see how much passion Colleen and Greg have about their work is to read their blog posts. You can see how they strive to have the individuality of each couple shine through as they capture all of the elements that make their wedding day special. Colleen and Greg made sure to wait until we got back from our honeymoon to post our blog posts and we are so appreciative of that. BOTH posts brought tears, laughter, and all of the emotions we experienced at our wedding back to us as we recounted the moments captured in our sneak peek photos. The excitement did not stop there...Colleen and Greg surprised us with a quicker than expected turn around of ALL of our photos! The shots are even more stunning than we could have imagined. There really are no words to describe how happy we are with the collection. Our friends and family continue to rave about the pictures we have shared with them. We, along with our family, cannot say enough about how wonderful the Solas Studios team was to work with! We would recommend their high quality talent to anyone!!

ew that they bring to their craft and come out with incredibly stunning photographs! Colleen and Greg are also super fun and extremely enjoyable to be around - they helped make our engagement session a breeze, and were loved by absolutely everyone at our wedding! Having two completely professional photographers there for our entire wedding day made for pictures and memories we will cherish for the rest our lives! Thank you so much to them both for being fan-freaken-tastic!

looking the way you want them. It was more than we wanted to spend on photos but we thing it was worth it. Having both of them was great, especially when the guys and girls were getting ready seperately.

stic to work with and create just amazing photography of your wedding day. Solas Studios really commits to your wedding day- we got the all day basic package and so I never needed to worry about when the photographers should be around. Colleen was also especially helpful in helping me plan out the agenda for the day- she has a great worksheet that can help you figure out how you want the details of the day to flow. I found that especially helpful since we didn't have a wedding planner- and I was planning this wedding while finishing my MA degree. They were also very good about getting all the shots we requested and took great formal and informal party shots. My groom and I also got along well with Colleen and Greg- they made us feel comfortable and it totally shows through in the photography work. They really captured our day. The one warning I would give, is that if you are on a strictly timed schedule during your photos- have someone in the bridal party or another guest- come and police the time, because Colleen and Greg really love taking gorgeous photos and sometimes the time will slip away from them. Can't really complain though the final few shots of my new husband and I before we went to the reception are some of my favorites.

where else, they like to travel). My husband and I were both apprehensive about having our pictures taken, but Colleen and Greg made us feel so comfortable we knew we made the right choice by going with them before we even saw how our engagement photos came out. Their wedding package is both affordable and comprehensive. Our wedding was a little unique and they were more than flexible with having to "rough it" a little to capture our Adirondack vision. Their combination of photography styles made for hundreds and hundreds of amazing pictures that made our vision come alive with photographs we will cherish for the rest our lives. We can't express enough how thrilled we were that we chose Solas Studios for this once in a lifetime experience!

yet awesome ideas. All the pictures came out great and I cannot wait to work with them again!

allows clients to get an excellent mix of photos on their wedding. They had many interesting and unique ideas for photos and I am very happy that I chose Solas Studios as my wedding photography...they did an awesome job!

album with our package. The album was the most fascinating album I had ever seem. It wasn't a normal one where you threw pictures in. It was heavy and durable and the pictures were put into it like a story book. My sister is next to get married and she will be defiantly be going to Solas Studios. Don't make a mistake and go somewhere else!
