Ian (and his team) was recommended to us by our wedding planner and from our first meeting in his apartment, we knew that he was going to be our wedding photographer. He immediately made us feel at ease and was very enthusiastic about the locations for our engagement shoot and wedding. Our engagement shoot in the Poconos turned out even better than we could have imagined and we had a ton of fun while doing it! On the day of our wedding, Ian did an amazing job scooping out locations for our first look and portraits prior to the ceremony and they were absolutely stunning. He and his second photographer captured the ceremony and reception in such a beautiful way; everyone has complemented us on how fabulous the photos are. Plus, Ian is such a chill guy to be around that it definitely helped with the wedding day jitters! We highly recommend him!

Ian (and his assistant DJ) were absolutely incredible. We got married on July 6th in Connecticut, and they both traveled from Philadelphia to our event without an issue. They helped organize the timeline of the morning, scoped out the area for first look locations, and were super flexible and professional throughout the entire day/night. Ian is relaxed which I loved - his style allows for natural photographs without going through the typical poses that some find cheesy. Ian and DJ were patient when family asked for specific photos throughout the reception and made everyone feel comfortable.
We also were lucky enough to have Viva Love for our engagement photos back in September of 2017 - and all the above applies for that shoot as well! If you are thinking of booking Ian, don't hesitate. He is wonderful!

As my husband and I searched for our 'perfect' photographer, we encountered the good, the bad and the ugly. We spoke to number photographers who had a clear vision for the day that was VERY different from what we had in mind. From the first time we spoke with Ian via FaceTime, we new that he was going to fit perfectly into our special day. They got amazing shots during our wedding mass, followed by such a natural photo shoot with my husband outside of our venue. My guests haven't stopped complementing the shots that they got, 6 months later. I think there is a picture of every guest at our wedding somewhere in the gallery, and that is priceless. Ian and DJ- THANK YOU! We now have these pictures to remember our day for years to come. We can't sing your praises loud enough!

Ian and his team are AWESOME! We could not be happier with how our photos turned out. My husband and I are pretty awkward in front of the camera, so we booked an engagement session with Ian to get more comfortable. Ian made the whole process super easy and helped us feel ready for the big day.

Our wedding photos capture the perfect range of emotions and a great mix of friends and family. Everyone will tell you that your wedding day goes by way too fast, but Ian's photos help us remember and savor every moment. Thank you, Viva Love team!

We had an all around fantastic experience with Ian, who from the get go was friendly and accommodating. Though we live abroad and couldn't meet Ian in person until our wedding, he was nonetheless in contact as needed throughout the planning process. Day of, Ian took charge, helped us find the most photogenic spots to take portraits, and directed all shoots so perfectly that we somehow came out looking like models (!). We’re thrilled with the results and would recommend Ian and his team to anyone looking for a professional, artistic, and super cool photographer. Thanks, Ian!

Having top notch wedding photos was an important priority for my husband and me when we were planning our wedding. We knew it would be one of the only things we would have after all the excitement of big day was over and I am so glad that we chose to go with Viva Love Photography. Ian's style is so distinctive, beautiful and timeless and you can feel the emotions leaping out of each photo. Ian's second shooter,D.J., was also a dream to work with and their collaborative process was really fun to watch. They each had really unique ideas for where to shoot our bridal portraits and we all had a blast running into old barns, greenhouses and tramping through woods to get the perfect shots! We were on such a high after our first look and portraits, that it completely took away any nerves that I had for the ceremony because we were having such a blast. Easy to work with, professional, funny, insanely talented - I sincerely cannot recommend Viva Love Photography highly enough!

Simply put, Ian and his team are fantastic in all aspects, from photo quality to acumen on how to work an event. The first look, and photo shoot was a highlight of our day, with how he planned the procession of the shoot, and how he set up and organized our families. The pictures turned out amazing, and do yourself a favor, upgrade the photo album. It's unique, and most importantly, beautiful. Not only is it a special piece from our day, it really showcased the excellence of the photos, highlighting the unique qualities Ian put into his work. Hire him without hesitation.

I really don't usually write reviews, but the world needs to know about Viva Love, so I'll do my part! I can't say enough good things about my experience working with Ian and his team. We never dreamed that we'd be able to afford such beautiful photos and video of our wedding. Ian really held my hand through the process of deciding what services we really wanted, and helped me customize one of his standard packages to fit exactly what I was picturing (no pun intended!). And people comment all the time about how glamorous we look in the photos Ian took of both our engagement and our wedding. I know this sounds corny, but I've seriously never felt so beautiful. Seriously, just do yourself a favor and have Viva Love photograph your wedding. You can thank me later.

Ian is the total package - enough said. So professional, kind, and just so talented. He exceeded our every expectation.

Our wedding photography was the most important factor for my bride and I, and the factor to which we had dedicated the biggest chunk of our budget. We were dead set on getting the best possible person to capture the day for us. When we met Ian, we knew we had found the man for the job. His experience with weddings was apparent from our first meeting. He immediately put us at ease, and even helped us maximize our photography budget by letting us customize our package to get everything we wanted - including video! On the day of, Ian, his second shooter, and the videographer were all very professional, and an absolute joy to be around. I cannot recommend Ian and his team highly enough.
