Creative - Professional - Flexible
No Boundaries is an absolutely fantastic, professional, creative, and flexible husband-wife photographer combo that made us feel comfortable in front of the camera while delivering candid photos that perfectly captured our day, and we could not possibly recommend them more highly. They were an absolute pleasure to work with and delivered truly beautiful photos that we will no doubt cherish for a lifetime.
We met Graciela and Nic at a coffee shop in Bend during a visit from where we live in Boise (we got married in Canby) and instantly felt at ease. They were easy to talk to, and we realized quickly by being around them that we would be comfortable in front of a camera with them, which was important since, well, one of us is an engineer, and we’re not exactly known for our skills at being photographed. They worked with us to drive up to Portland for our engagement shoot at a time when we’d be in town (again, we live in Boise, so our windows of opportunity were limited and their flexibility was incredible). We thought up a few places for the shoot and based on the location, they provided additional options, which was very helpful, especially since the day turned out to be a bit drizzly and options were necessary. Needless to say, the photos turned out amazingly, and we were incredibly excited that we had booked them for our wedding.
One of the things that we really wanted in our wedding photos was a lot of candid photos that captured the emotion of the day and highlighted things that we might have missed, and No Boundaries delivered on that. Having two photographers helped to get a wide variety of photos, and, more importantly, the fact that they operate as a pair all of the time means that they have a rhythm to what they’re doing; they’re able to cover a lot without missing anything. Many of the other photographers we looked at might offer 2 photographers, but they didn’t always work with the same second photographer at every wedding. Honestly, the consistency of working together that No Boundaries has results in a higher quality product, and we saw that in our photos, which really did capture the day naturally with the sort of journalistic style we were looking for.
Not only did they do a great job at capturing the candid moments of our day, but they also did an amazing job at keeping us organized and on track, which was a feat given that we had 17 people in our wedding party. Family photos were done with care but in an efficient manner so as not to keep us and our families from enjoying the reception. They were also flexible in delivering a few key shots throughout the night, one of which required us to round up about 40 Gonzaga alumni into one picture outside.
Finally, we were very thankful for the responsiveness of Nic and Graciela throughout the wedding-planning process. Planning a Portland wedding from Boise has its challenges, but they made it easy for us. They were always quick to respond and provide us with answers to any questions we had.
Overall, we truly can’t say enough good things about No Boundaries. They are fantastic people who take some beautiful photos. You should absolutely book them for your wedding.
