More than just a photographer, Davina was a confidante, a wedding-planner, outfit planner, and visionary. From our initial consultation, I felt instantly comfortable. She was easy to talk to, accessible, and a constant comfort throughout our wedding season. You could sense Davina loves what she does and I was always astounded by how thoughtful she was about every detail, how organized she was, and how generous she was with her time and talents.
*
Engagement Shoot: Part of why we hired Davina is I knew my partner and I would feel pretty awkward in front of the camera and we had heard that she helped couples feel comfortable. She achieved this and more, allowing our personalities to shine through while also elevating us so we looked better than imagined! Davina was incredibly generous with her time, spending almost the whole day with us. I’ll note that we asked her to travel to NYC (where we first met) and she was incredibly reasonable with additional travel expenses. The experience of the shoot was so much fun! She had a nice blend of knowing exactly where to take photos and honoring our desires for particular locations or vibes. Ahead of the shoot, she sent me a shared pinterest board so we could share inspiration photos, and even answered questions on what to wear and what to bring which helped soothe my type-A, anxious personality. By the end of the day, my partner and I were laughing freely with Davina and her husband and enjoyed easy, warm conversation.
*
Wedding Day: Leading up to the wedding day, Davina was extremely organized in helping us outline the details for the day - helping us fine tune our day-of schedule, sending a list of potential items needed for “detail” shots, suggesting ways to troubleshoot some potential issues at the venue, even offering to bring her own equipment (e.g. an unsightly vent in the ceremony space). I felt that I had all these anxieties about the little details leading up to the wedding, but one meeting with Davina made everything fall into place. On the day-of, Davina again was extremely generous with her time, arriving with her whole team very early in order to scope out locations for photos, set-up, and test lighting without charging any additional fees. When we met on the day-of, it was such a comfort to see a familiar face, it felt like a sigh of relief. I remember I was stressed because we were behind schedule, but Davina immediately reassured me that this was normal and from then on, I felt I could just trust her implicitly to keep the day running smoothly. Her and second-shooter, Jessica, kept us right on schedule, directing every individual to where they needed to be when. My bridesmaids constantly noted how amazing the whole team was.
She gave great tips to our guests/family members for poses while also allowing natural moments to happen. I loved that she was always enthusiastic and encouraging (”Oh, I love this!”) which made everyone feel more at ease. It was wonderful to do our couple photos with her after the engagement session because she had learned which expressions and poses looked most natural for us. How amazing to work with a photographer who understands you! Then, literally the NIGHT of our wedding, Davina sent us several photo sneak-peeks and they literally brought tears to my eyes because they so captured the emotion of the day.
*
tldr: nothing but the most glowing praise for Davina and her whole team! We can’t wait for the rest of our photos! Every time we take photos now, I wish Davina were there to help us haha. -

We consider ourselves so lucky to stumble upon their page while browsing around for videographers. From the start they were so nice to work with. Not only were they professional, they also made us comfortable when they were filming. Reminded us to breathe and take in the moments while they captured our day. We’re definitely calling them back for our next big event. Worth every penny! -

While we didn’t go with videography or photography from Love Per Second, my wife and I can’t speak any more highly about Sam Yim, who was our day of coordinator. Sam’s professionalism, care, and desire to go above and beyond was second to none. It is not a stretch to say that without Sam, our wedding would not have gone as well as it did. We are so pleased with our choice to have gone with Sam and would highly recommend him to any friend. -

I absolutely love the Love Per Second team! Davina and Grace are sweet, professional, and caring. LPS did our engagement photoshoot, as well as wedding photography and videography. We loved the final products! Davina has a great eye and made us comfortable in front of the camera. Their whole team is so talented and sweet (including the second shooters). Davina sent us sneak peeks of our photos quickly, which was really nice. I definitely recommend investing in video for your wedding, as we were able to relive our wedding day and see moments that I didn't get to see on the actual day (like our flower girl walking down the aisle). You can trust LPS to care about you as a couple, be creative, and capture your best moments. Thank you guys!! -

If there is a way to recommend Love Per Second to everyone, we would do whatever it takes to share about our experience with them!
Our experience with the LPS team was for our wedding. From the moment we shared our desires for their team to the day of our wedding, they have been very supportive and helpful during the entire process! They were generous in sharing their expertise, they were supportive of our decisions, and they were very organized in helping us carry out the plans.
As hectic and crazy the wedding day can be for the bride and groom, the photo/videography team and the day of coordinator made it smooth-sailing.
When we received our wedding album, we could see not only the high quality photography and videography but we could also see how much work they put in during the day as well. They captured many moments we had missed and we want to treasure for our lifetime. We are so excited to share our photos and videos to our friends and family, and to re-live our memories.
My husband and I wanted to plan our own wedding but needed someone to make sure our plan was carried out on the day of. That was Sam, the best wedding coordinator we could ask for!
Sam is very organized and timely, two most important characteristics of a wedding coordinator. He checked in with us throughout the planning process and made sure he understood what was important for us on the day of.
We did not worry one bit because we had Sam as our day of coordinator, and we were able to enjoy the wedding fully. We also heard from our guests how good Sam was, especially with organizing the vendors (because the rain caused minor changes to our plan, which Sam already helped us plan for). We love Sam :)
It is SO important to have talented AND reliable vendors, which Love Per Second displays the definition of both.
Thank you guys for all of your time and effort in making our wedding day pan out perfectly. -

We legitimately have not stopped talking about how amazing Love Per Second was at our wedding. Incredible communication and also great personalities from all team members. Even if you're camera shy, they make you feel so at ease, and your photos will come out like you're the most photogenic person in the world. They will hype you without being phony, and they're very sweet and encouraging. My now-husband, who tends to not like having photos taken of himself, absolutely loved our experiences with Love Per Second. They will direct your poses from start to finish, if you have no idea how to act in front of a camera.
They even also helped me out with a first-look prank that I had planned wherein his brother (also a groomsman) would surprise him in a white dress before I came out for the real thing, and it went so smoothly, and we got awesome photos/videos from it. They also got all the photos from our photo shot list (they'll send you a sample/template for you to compile your own), and they were not in the way at all. Even with my husband having a huge family (8 siblings!), we got all the photos we wanted.
They also arrived early for our getting-ready photos and stayed until the end of our event. Their team of 5 (for the package we purchased) felt like the perfect amount. They have different packages and tiers of services. I highly recommend that you also get your engagement photos taken with them so that you can acclimate yourself with their process! Their product really emphasizes the difference between a professional, artistic photo/video team and just some people with a fancy point-and-shoot camera. Davina is also super cool/fun and I actually really want to be friends with her lol. -

Our Favorite Vendor!
We cannot say enough good things about working with LovePerSecond. We used this team for photo and video services for our March 2022 wedding in NoVA. First and foremost I believe it's important to LIKE your photo/video team because you spend all day with them. Grace + Davina are kind, funny, enjoyable and poised. They are professional and easy to work with and communicate with. They REALLY heard me when I shared the things that felt important to my now husband and me for our wedding. Every part of our day was captured PERFECTLY. For our video - I didn't even share our musical tastes and they selected THE MOST PERFECT SONGS for the wedding video and teaser.
On our wedding day, they made us both feel at ease. You will find that your planner and photo/video team are the key players for keeping your day on point time wise. They followed everything on my wish list to a tee. I am in awe of their organizational skills! Despite having a 5-6 person team on my wedding day, they moved quietly and with stealth such that I didn't even really notice! There are parts of our video and shots from the photos where we keep saying "how did they get that shot?!?"
I will share this part in case it's helpful for others - like all things wedding related, I initially had sticker shock when I started to shop around for photographers and videographers. The true value in the LPS team is that you will have a team who CARES about you, and about capturing your day in the way that YOU want. I felt like they were deeply invested in their role for our big day. It is all worth every single penny. EVERY SINGLE PENNY!
We consider this team family now, and are so grateful to have worked with them. HIRE THEM ASAP! -

Love per second was great to work with from day 1! They were kind and professional at every step and gave us everything we wanted and more!! I recommend hiring them for both video and photo so you have team synergy throughout the day and not two different groups clashing. -

loved loved LOVED the final product from the LovePerSecond team. Not only was the final video and the IG reel that they created was amazing, Grace and Davina were AMAZING people to work with. They are very thoughtful and meticulous in planning, execution (on the big day), and putting together the final product. They made sure they captured the BEST moments as well as making my husband and I feel super comfortable during our big day. They are truly gifted and if you're reading this, definitely consider them yall. You will not regret. -

If you're looking for a team that strives to be storytellers for your big day then you need to hire LPS. I recently moved to the West Coast from the East Coast. I never knew how much I would cherish the clips of my family and friends that I miss back at home. It as if the LPS team knew exactly what I needed! Thank you again!! -

J Jang Sent on 12/17/2020I cannot say enough good things about LPS.
The quality video they produced for us captured our sweet day perfectly. Not only with the final product though, they exceeded our expectations every step of the way. Planning a wedding with a spouse in the military, let alone during an international pandemic is quite difficult. The LPS team was incredibly flexible and understanding during the entire process. Not to mention, their sweet personalities made us look forward to working out all the details with them! The team went over and above what was expected- often planning zoom calls to coordinate with my (now) husband's deployment schedule and 13 hour time difference! LPS was organized, had great ideas/alternatives (for our small pandemic restricted ceremony), and quickly adapted, when a protest downtown DC shut down our original filming location THE DAY OF our wedding. The team makes every part of the planning process to wedding day enjoyable and the result is not only a video of your wedding, but a unique lens for all viewers that tells the story of your relationship and your big day.
If you want a team that is unique and truly cares about you and what they do- hire LPS!! -

Davina was an absolute pleasure to work with. She got to know us so that she could make the video extra special and captured all the details that we want to remember forever. Davina got along so well with our photographer and other vendors. She even recommended other vendors to us and was eager to help in any way possible. I highly recommend Love Per Second for a thorough, loving, personable experience. -

Semy Sent on 08/23/2020Captured Beautifully
Our friends at Love Per Second did an incredibly beautiful job on the wedding video. They captured sweet moments, made excellent song choices, thought up of very thoughtful artistic decisions, had multiple angle shots and overall wove our wedding together well. My husband and I were so thrilled by their creative eye. They were also incredibly easy and fun to work with. They were also very willing to work with what he had and what we didn't have. They provided us with live streaming services so that our family and friends who couldn't make it could still be a part of it in some way. Davina was always so encouraging, uplifting and was able to simply bring a smile to our faces. Would definitely recommend for your wedding! -

Est L. Sent on 06/07/2020You won't regret working with Davina
I got married during the Covid-19 pandemic and we had to change our wedding day plans multiple times. Through it all, Davina and the Love/Second team were gracious, flexible, and highly supportive. Just having Davina around gave me a calming presence -- like everything was going to be all right. Brides: if you want someone in your corner, Davina is your girl. As far as her video craftsmanship... wow. She has a way of gathering all the footage from the day, and weaving it together to create a beautiful, touching story. She also provided us with a highlight reel, a final 5-6 minute video, and some raw footage of our ceremony, which was great. I highly recommend Davina and her team; I would give them 6 stars if I could. -

Warm and Genuine
The Lovepersecond team was amazing to work with through and through. They, not only captured the best parts of our wedding day, but were there as moral support and assistant to everyone to make your day as stress-free and smooth as possible. They were attentive to our needs, personal, and really took the time to tailor their video to the couple’s dynamics. We really wanted a genuine, heartfelt, warm, and authentic snapshot of us, surrounded by our community, on our wedding day and that is exactly what we got. -

The Love per Second crew was amazing! They showed up and immediately got to work, filming drone footage of the venue. Unlike my other half, who enjoys all eyes on him (hehe), I get pretty camera shy, but the team made sure I was comfortable and ready for whatever was happening next. I've watched the compilation video 3 times now and get teary EVERY. TIME. I don't know how they capture hours and hours of footage and then perfectly choose which clips to seam together for the grand masterpiece. They will also give you gigs and gigs of raw footage which are soooo fun too look back on. Can't wait to look back on these videos each year!
THANK YOU LOVE PER SECOND!! -

Laura Sent on 05/29/2019A fantastic investment with wonderful people!
The Love Per Second team has been such a pleasure and a dream to work with! Right from the start, Davina, Grace, and Joanna were so friendly and accommodating towards my needs and requests. During our wedding, Davina and Joanna worked so effortlessly to capture every moment of our special day. They collaborated with our photographer as if they had known her for years, and really made everything run so smoothly! They even set up our Facebook Live stream, so that our loved ones, who ,couldn't make it to the wedding, were able to join us from afar! We're so excited to see the finished project! Do yourself a favor, and hire these lovely ladies!! -

Love per Second was so fun and easy to work with. We met up in person prior to the wedding so they could get to know us, chatted on the phone prior to the wedding, and made everything so comfortable on the day of. Plus, it was really fun! They've got a great team, everyone was super friendly, and everything turned out great. Highly recommend! -

Love per second was so easy to work with and it's been 3 months since our wedding and every time I watch the videos it brings me back to our wedding day. From the beginning they were so easy to talk to and made it a priority to capture who we are.
They did such a great job capturing our love, personalities and the special moments. I would highly recommend them to capture any special occasion! My family still talks about how great of a job they did and how easy they were to work with during the wedding. -

I knew from the second I met the Love Per Second team they would be wonderful. I decided last minute I wanted a videographer and they worked really quickly with me to have everything ready for the day. They took the time to really learn about us as a couple and what we wanted to remember for our day. On our wedding day they made everyone feel at ease.
The footage they got was absolutely amazing! From the images to the music, everything was perfect. I can't express how awesome they are and how great of a deal they offer. Book them while you can!!! -

Grace and Davina make the sweetest team! We had a small wedding and they were on board with our vision right away. They made us feel so comfortable that we barely noticed them filming and that's kinda crazy because there were less than 20 people total in the room. We appreciated their enthusiasm and flexibility! -

Aurora Sent on 10/07/2025Excellent but suggest couple provide a "must have" shot list
Over 1000 photos were taken and the quality was amazing....but my advice as mother of the groom is to provide wish list of "must have" shots because there were no standalone photos taken of me and my husband (parents of the groom), only 2 photos of my daughter with the groom (her brother and his only sibling), no standalone photos of my daughter with her soon to be fiancé who was a groomsman that day, no photos of me with my godmother or of the groom with my godmother, his only great aunt in attendance representing both sides of our family from that generation. Luckily, my guests and I captured these key photos and I was able to devise and purchase my parents album elsewhere.
