Best. Decision. Ever!!

After being in and attending several weddings, I can truly say that Phil and Andrea stand out among the rest. We were so incredibly fortunate to have found them both and it was the best decision we could have made.

Phil has an amazing vision for photography and photos and his work is breathtaking. I’ve never been so happy with pictures before and I still can’t get over our engagement photos. I can’t even imagine what our wedding pictures will be like. He didn’t miss a second and used every opportunity to get the shots that we wanted done.

Andrea ran the show. She kept us on time and made the entire day run smoothly. She bustled my dress, gave me a bandaid, and took out my veil. She knew us as a couple, organized our shot list and made the most of our time together. She even ran around with sparklers several times to get a picture I really wanted and offered to help me pee.

They are one of a kind and worth every penny. You won’t make a better decision than McConville Studio!

Absolute best photographers- HIRE THEM

Andrea and Phil are a phenomenal duo to work with. We began working with them several months ago to plan our 50 person wedding, however plans changed due to COVID-19. They were extremely understanding and flexible. Once we were ready to plan our super intimate elopement (of just us), they helped us brainstorm and plan for our special day. We eloped at Starved Rock and hiked into St Louis Canyon to have our ceremony. Phil and Andrea were a blast to work with, they listened to what was important to us to have pictures of, and also made everything so seamless. We both were not that excited to take photos for a long period of time, but the McConvilles made the process fun and quick. They have a great eye for finding the right light and setting.
On top of their amazing personalities and photography skills, they have an awesome studio for rent which is an ideal place to get ready. My husband got ready in Phil’s office and I had the main area to myself to have my hair and makeup done and enjoy some drinks and snacks while getting ready. Overall it was truly a magical and whimsical day that we will never forget. They truly went above and beyond for us, and we will never ever forget all that they did.
Also Kasha from Camp Bride worked phenomenally with them. These 3 truly knocked it out of the park for us. They all felt like old friends, I would recommend them to anyone and everyone seeking photographers for ANY occasion.

McConville Studio offers so much to their clients: An amazing team of photographers who are truly talented and just great to be around, incredible editing skills (something not every photographer has), and a PHENOMENAL final product. We have had the opportunity to work with photographers from all over the US and they are at the top of our recommendation list. Also, as a wedding cinematographer, having a photographer who knows how to work well with a filmmaker not only makes our job easier and more fun, but makes the couple's wedding film that much better. Their constant attention to not only getting the fantastic photos their couples want, but also understanding that it isn't ONLY about the photos proves how much McConville Studio truly cares about their clients. Talent and Heart, What more could you want?!
