Exceptional Quality and Service
Donovan Blake of Carpe Diem was exceptional and excellent. He exceeded our expectations. He was reasonably priced, flexible and responsive. He was prompt, professional and took artistic license to capture all moments, groupings and ambiance of our wedding and the venue. Without reservation I/we would hire him again as well as recommend him to our family and friends. Heartfelt thanks to you Donovan for capturing the precious moments of our once in a lifetime event.

Phenomenal service
Words cannot describe how great the Carpe Diem Design Studio is. They were on point! They were on time, they were prepared and they were ready which is always a plus! They made sure that the whole party looked amazing with every video and shot. Everyone was very nice and personable and gave space. It was honestly like they were part of the family. All of them were very sweet. They got all of the great moments and funny ones in between. I am so excited! if you’re thinking about booking them thinks no more go ahead and hire them.
Thank you to Donovan Blake and his crew for being professionals at every moment of the day! I wish I could do it again!

Highly recommend
I found Donovan on WeddingWire and instantly fell in love with his photography style—and he absolutely did not disappoint! He arrived early to scout out the location, making sure everything would be perfect, and even stayed later than he was contracted to ensure he captured every special moment. To top it all off, we received our photos the very next day—and we LOVE every single one of them. Donovan is professional, talented, and truly goes above and beyond. I highly recommend him!
