Reviews of Burgundy Blue

The most amazing team!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Burgundy Blue! From the very first meeting, Ryan (owner) made us feel completely comfortable and truly understood our vision for the day. JJ, our photographer delivered an amazing engagement shoot, so we were confident our wedding photos would be just as magical.

On our wedding day, JJ was not only professional and organized, but also warm, funny, and such a joy to have around. He captured every single moment we were hoping for with so much artistry and attention to detail. I’ve looked through our photos so many times because it feels like reliving the day all over again!

What really stood out is how seamlessly he was able to be present without ever feeling intrusive. I loved all the ideas for poses which felt genuine and did a great job at showing the magic of the day.

Hiring Burgundy Blue was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. If you want a photography company who employs amazing talent but also professional, reliable, and passionate about their craft, look no further. We will treasure these photos forever!

Couldn’t be happier!

From the first message sent, Ryan was quick to respond. He laid out all the options and prices.
Sierra was our photographer and she couldn’t take been sweeter! My husband and I typically shy away from the camera but she made us feel really comfortable.
Overall there was great communication from Ryan and Sierra and I’m grateful for that! And the pictures came out beautifully!!

Burgundy Blue Photographers are Fun and Highly-Professional

We worked with Trevor and Jodie for our wedding at the Santa Barbara Zoo. They showed up on-time, prepared and ready to get to work. They orchestrated our first-look and a slew of romantic shots. They then worked well to coral our families together to take a series of family shots. Trevor and Jodie worked very well with the toddlers in our family - somehow getting them to stand still and smile for the pictures (despite all the zoo animals there as a distraction!). More than anything, Trevor and Jodie made us feel very special on our big day and were fun, empathetic, and very pleasant to work with. Ryan, the owner of the company, was easy to communicate with and coordinated everything.

Wonderful Photographer!!

We booked Trevor through Burgundy Blue and he was absolutely wonderful! We had such a great experience and loved how kind, fun, and easy he was to work with. Our wedding was in July at the Natural History Museum in LA, we hired Trevor to shoot getting ready photos, wedding party photos, and the entire wedding/reception. He was communicative and flexible with scheduling and shooting locations around the venue. We loved his positive attitude and he made everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Thank you so much, we're so happy with our photos!!

absolutely beautiful !!

Ryan and his team are FANTASTIC. The photos from our wedding were so GORGEOUS. I hired them based off of a recommendation from our planner. Though she wasn't great, Ryan and Zak were. We LOVE the photos. Zak was amazing, a very calming chill presence on a stressful day. Leading up to wedding, Ryan was so communicative and timely in his responses. A true professional. I was worried the photos may be too moody based off of what I had seen, but they were ROMANTIC / GORGEOUS and perfect, despite gloomy weather. Also, they are affordable and well worth every cent. An additional plus, we had the photos in 3 weeks! So fast! Fully recommend!

You're gonna love the way you look

The entire crew of Burgundy Blue is just a class act -- Ryan was so flexible and easy to work with throughout all of the COVID challenges, it was a delight. He's a lovely guy and can take some beautiful shots!

For day of wedding photography & video, Trevor and Tim crushed it. We're so thrilled with how everything came out -- their hard work completely commemorated the day and just made it that much more special

Great experience and wonderful photos

Ryan is so good at making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I’m notoriously awkward when I take photos, but he made us look and feel like models!

We love lena & burgundy blue!

Wedding Day Review: After an incredible engagement session with Lena back in 2020, we were not surprised when she surpassed all expectations on our wedding day. Lena and her assistant Amber were everything we could've wanted in our photographers. On time, professional, high energy, and most importantly they captured the day in the most beautiful and stunning ways possible. They came early and scoped out the venue looking for the perfect spots. They were organized when it came time to wrangle the family for pictures and everyone we talked to after the wedding mentioned how nice and lovely they both were. Lena and Amber just know how to make you feel comfortable and confident. On a chaotic day they actually helped us feel sane and calm. We could not be happier with our photos and look forward to cherishing them for years to come. Everyone that sees the album can tell how much love and joy there was on the day simply seeing it through Lena's camera lens, which to us means they got an A+++! We hope to use Lena and BB for all our important moments, they definitely have us as a customer for life :)

Engagement Session Review: Ryan was able to get everything coordinated quickly and was very responsive. Our photographer Lena was the absolute best! We booked with BB for our wedding in 2021 and wanted to do the engagement session to get comfortable with Lena. We loved her willingness and flexibility to find the perfect location. My partner and I felt totally at ease and the photos turned out INCREDIBLE. More beautiful than we could even had hoped for! The turn around was also very quick and access to view the photos was seamless. The photos all looks very natural and organic, not posed or forced. Highly recommend Lena and Burgundy Blue and we're so excited to have the shoot our wedding next year!!

Burgundy Blue is Amazing!!!

Burgundy Blue did an amazing job capturing our wedding at Millwick in downtown LA. The style in which the photos were shot, and the level of effort that went into the event, really shine through in our wedding pictures. Also, dealing with Ryan at Burgundy Blue was a pleasure. He has a keen artistic eye, is easy to work with and made great suggestions to help us feel natural and relaxed. They also did an incredible job shooting our engagement photos. We highly recommend Burgundy Blue and will be using them for future events.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
