La Vie Studios

Gorgeous photos and great people (and you'll be spending a lot of time with your photographer so this matters more than you think). Worth the extra money. I'll let the photos speak for themselves

Choosing Jose and La Vie Studios for our wedding was the best decision we made for the wedding hands-down!!! They made coordinating and planning a timeline effortless and smooth, which was super helpful while planning the wedding myself. Every single picture we have is a winner, beautiful, personal, and frame-worthy! I've only had the pictures back for about a week and have already received several comments that they're the best wedding pictures anyone's ever seen, and I agree. On top of that, Jose was incredibly personable, funny, creative, and professional and worked insanely hard throughout the day to capture all the perfect moments! He was working very hard, but also felt like a part of the party interacting with the guests and family. My new husband and I are both pretty awkward photo subjects and he made it feel effortless and comfortable (which, trust me, is a struggle)! I cannot emphasize enough how gorgeous every single picture we have turned out! Jose and La Vie Studios get 10 out of 5 stars in my book-- we are incredibly grateful and I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone who needs professional photography or is planning an event!

Jess, Jose and the whole La Vie team are dream photographers!! Their work speaks for itself with the simple, elegant, pure moments they capture. My experience with Jess from the first time I reached out was nothing short of perfect- she, as well as the team, were kind and very devoted to making our day special. They captured all the special moments and made pictures feel easy and were always there to guide us and our families through the day. They are dedicated, passionate, kind and so so talented.
Having a photographer capture moments that you will look back on for the rest of your life is imperative and I would look for them to capture this moment time and time again. I can’t ever thank them enough and if you are looking for a photographer you won’t find anyone better than La Vie!!

1 word: Incredible. Everything you will ever want in your photos and MORE. Weddings are expensive and the investment I made in Jose & his team will last lifetimes. I will show these pictures to my kids, my grandkids, even strangers on the street!! Why I loved them? 1. I got to live in the moment and they captured everything without me needing to say anything 2. They are quick to respond, you can trust them, & they’re kind 3. The photos are INCREDIBLE. Just book them. Trust me, an internet stranger, BUT a past bride who didn’t trust anyone and is literally crying looking at her photos. Do it!!

With all of the many many decisions there are to make in wedding planning, hiring a really great photographer was #1 on the priority list for me. After scanning many.. MANY options, I fell in love with the unique, gorgeous photography style La Vie Studios provides. I reached out and right away I had a call set up with Jess, who would later become our lead photographer 😉. By the end of that call I knew I wanted La Vie Studios to photograph our wedding. Jess was so fun and easy to talk to, her personality drew us in and made me feel like I had known her for years. Whenever I had a question she would cheerfully respond to me & it was always such a big help. When tour wedding day finally came, Jess and her team were beyond incredible. So professional, talented, and absolute bosses at navigating the craziness that comes with the morning of the wedding. Jess even went beyond her duties and wore many hats on our day, helping in many occasions, even at one point helping by putting a memory bouquet charm on my bridal bouquet when I didn’t have the time to. It was so pleasant to have them as our photographers, I did not need to worry for a second about anything being missed, Jess knew just where to be and when and got every shot we’d wanted. If all of that isn’t already enough to explain why you should book them, let me tell you our mouths were on the FLOOR when we received our wedding photo previews about 24 hour later. We were able to share photos right away and received so many compliments! The photos are so gorgeous I literally cried when I went through them at that’s just the previews! hahaha. Jess and her team captured our day so beautifully. I will never forget it. Jess, Thank you for being such a huge part of our day and capturing these memories that we will look back on for the rest of our lifetime. Words can’t express our gratitude! 🤍🫶🏻

Jose is the absolute BEST photographer ever!! He did the pictures for my wedding and they turned out better than I could have ever imagined.
He took such beautiful photographs capturing every detail on the best day of our lives.
He captured the day perfectly from beginning to end and it was a pleasure to have him a part of it!
Hope to use him in the future for many more special events!

When I started booking vendors for my wedding I prioritized which ones were most important to me, which for me, was the photographer. I did a lot of research, and finally found la vie studios. The uniqueness of their photos really stood out to me. From the first time I contacted Jose at La Vie studios, he was so quick to respond and so friendly.
Jose and Jess are both so sweet. They were a lot of fun to photograph with and made me feel super comfortable. They were organized and always running on time or ahead of schedule. As the bride, I figured we would probably spend all of cocktail hour taking pictures. But they were able to get all of the pictures we asked for and sooo many more so we were able to attend the cocktail hour with everyone else. During the reception you hardly notice they are there taking pictures of you because they feel like another guest at the wedding.
Finally, the picture of our wedding couldn't be more perfect. Looking at them, I feel like I can relive the whole wedding day. The captured every little detail. I couldn't be happier with how they turned out!

Jose and the La Vie Team could not have been more incredible on our big day. Even for an insanely indecisive person like myself, La Vie was an easy choice and one I did not hesitate to make. In fact, La Vie Studios was the very first vendor we booked for our wedding. After seeing Jose's gallery from a friend's engagement at Vizcaya (our venue), we knew that there was no one else to shoot our wedding. Jose and the La Vie Team were just a fantastic resource for us and provided us guidance throughout the entire planning process and day of - they are almost planners and photographers/videographers all in one. The Team made sure to capture every single moment of our day and made it possible for us to relive the best day over and over again. My husband and I would choose La Vie Studios a million times over. THANK YOU Jose and the incredible team, we are so grateful for these precious memories you've captured for us.

I don’t know where to begin. From the moment we found La Vie Photography we were blown away by the attention to details, color treatments and real life that was captured in their images. After talking to Jose, I knew this was the team we wanted at our wedding. We booked our wedding pre-covid and they were flexible when we had to move our date. Leading up to the wedding, all contracts and communications were extremely professional and day of our wedding they arrived on time, stuck to the schedule and had everyone feeling at ease. We loved how much fun the whole team was - they were out on the dance floor, dancing while taking pictures/videos (my dad is still talking about how much he loved this). My husband is a serial non-smiler for pictures and Jose, Jess and the crew got so many awesome pictures of him genuinely smiling (teeth and all) and we only have the previews so far! I am so excited we have such beautiful memories of this day! I’ve cried tears of joy looking through them and remembering all of our favorite wedding moments. La Vie Photo/Video was worth every penny!

La Vie Studios is nothing short of amazing! They go above and beyond! While planning they were always professional, quick to reply, friendly and organized. On the day of, they helped keep me calm when we were severely behind schedule due to hair and makeup delays. They let me know we weren’t that far behind and caught us up fairly close to the intended timeline before I realized the time while still capturing all the photos I wanted and fitting in really awesome shots they had in mind. The entire group of photographers is so friendly and fun, and they were on top of everything the whole day. They capture amazing portraits shots of family as well as the fun of the reception. We even received a sneak peek just two weeks after the wedding! I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos and video, as so far they all turned out excellent. I would 100% select them again for my wedding, their work is priceless and they truly helped make my wedding day perfect!

y wedding was postponed indefinitely because of the COVID-19 pandemic. My fiance and i decided instead of postponing everything indefinitely, we'd throw a small ceremony in a family member's backyard. Jose and Jess worked with us on their original proposal and not only gave us amazing engagement photos, also split the time from our package to cover our backyard wedding and agreed to honor their original price for the eventual party, when those are allowed again. The photos are as good as all the other reviewers say, but more importantly, Jose is so positive and so on board with all your ideas. He made us feel like fun, goofy, beautiful geniuses. Also, every single woman and gay man at our backyard event asked me for his number. He is too handsome to be behind the camera.

If you're on the fence between La Vie and another photographer, and you want to know your photographer will be a partner to you on your big day or event, go with La Vie. They are more than just excellent photographers. They are excellent people.

When my fiancé and I discussed what was most important to us about our wedding, I said food and she said pictures. I’m glad I listened to her because Jose and La Vie studios were incredible. They were so fun to work with and the pictures came out amazing. They kept us on time and got some very cool and unique shots. They were super organized, talented and professional. It became very clear that they are in a league of their own. Thank you so much. Highest of regards in my book.

La Vie Studio and personnel were truly a joy to work with. Special shout out to Jose who made this aspect of our wedding process beyond simple! He took the time to get to know William and I and honestly captured every moment of our special day beautifully! Can't wait to work with them again in the future!

Jose went above and beyond to make our photography dreams a reality. He was flexible as we developed our package and extremely responsive to all emails. On our wedding day, he arrived early, used every minute purposefully, and captured all the moments perfectly. He truly was a dream to work with, and I highly recommend him!

We hired La Vie Studios for our wedding in December 2020 in Key Largo for both photo and video (we also had them do our engagement shoot in 2019). Jose was our dedicated photog and he was great, very friendly, lots of fun, professional, and a great artistic eye. He and his team were wonderful at the wedding and guests commented on how great the photographers were. They were flexible on adding some additional hours of coverage last minute (in addition to moving the entire event 9 months due to the pandemic). We love the photos and the short video clip that we've seen so far and would not hesitate to strongly recommend La Vie Studios to anyone!!
