    I have had the extreme pleasure of working with both members of this team. First of all, Aman is an absolute delight, he is funny and engaging and felt like an old friend right from the beginning. He had tons of really creative ideas but he was so easy-going about trying some of our ideas too. He met us in Granvile island and we took tons of time shooting around the Cove. The pictures are so beautiful, I don't know how he did it but he was able to perfectly capture who we are and how we felt. He is truly gifted with the heart of an artist and just the right amount of technical savvy to have an efficient and productive session.
    Elite Images is so efficient. The turn around on our pics was crazy fast. I was so excited to see the pics and I had them in my inbox so quickly. Looking at the pictures and choosing which to use was simple. Their system is so accessible and easy. I even asked them to remove a gate from one of the pics and they were able to instantly. Highly Recommend Elite images!!

    Aman did a great job on our wedding and engagment photos. He is a professional, so our pictures look very natural. He gave a lot of personal attention to us, which was what we were looking for. He was very prepared for both photo shoots and I would highly recommend him. We have had many compliments about our wedding photos. We aren't normally photogenic people, but he really made us shine. He came to our house twice. I was a nervous bride, so I was anxious to hear back when I contacted Aman. His response time could have been a little faster for me, but he was right, everything did turn out just perfect. His turn around time to send us the photos was even sooner than we had anticipated.

    After seeing the great job he did with our friends' wedding before, my wife and I had the privilege of working with Aman and his team for our wedding. We are very happy with how everything turned out. From the planning before the wedding, through the wedding day itself, and all the post production work after, everything was very impressive. I especially appreciate how Aman styles the videos to match each couple's tastes (i.e. Classy, funny, cute, etc). Thank you!

    I am so glad that my wife and I hired Aman Bal and Elite Images to do our wedding photography and videography (April 2014).

    We had Sam take our engagement photos (August 2015). He is really understanding and easy to work with and did a wonderful job recommending beautiful settings and poses to make sure we had amazing and memorable pictures.

    They didn't just record the events of our wedding day; they participated and captured lot of amazing moments that we will never forget. They engaged with our guests and made the event special for everyone. It added that little something extra that made our day even more magical. Aman and his team made everything go smoothly and no details were missed. Their team was sharp, professional and friendly.

    We had Aman do a same-day-edit and it was a real hit at the banquet. He did an amazing job directing and telling the story of our wedding.

    We are so happy we had Aman Bal record our wedding and we highly recommend Elite Images for wedding photography and videography.

    Let me just begin this review by saying Elite Im is simply amazing!

    We started working with Aman 3-month before our wedding, b/c we wanted to create a cute little clip to tell our love story at our wedding. Some of our guests are our parents' friends, so they don't necessarily know me and my husband that well. I showed Aman a clip I liked and had a few ideas myself, but had no idea how to execute them at all. Aman was so patient listening to my ideas and brainstorming with us. My husband and I obviously are not professional actors, so I was worried that the clip would come out to be super awkward. However, Aman's easygoing personality and sense of humor made the filming process very fun and easy. We were laughing the whole time while we filmed, and were even able to incorporate our dog in our video which really meant a lot to us! The final product definitely exceeded my expectation and it was a huge hit at our wedding!

    On our wedding day, the whole team (3 photographers and 2 videographers) showed up earlier than their appointment time to capture our makeup session and wedding prep. That was such a nice gesture and I was not expecting it at all. Aman, having been through countless weddings before, has a unique eye and ways in capturing the spirit of the wedding. He simply get's it and show's sincere appreciation of the amount of work the bride puts into the wedding. They captured an incredible amount of details that otherwise would have been missed. My wedding was a Sikh/Canadian fusion wedding and I love every single moment they captured for me during the ceremony. Not to mention the same day edit was the highlight of the wedding without a doubt.

    Like most brides, I was very conscious about our budget, but let me just say every single dollar we pay for the service provided by Elite Images is well worth its value and much more. It has been the best decision I made for my wedding, apart from marrying my husband on that day. =P

    My husband and I met Aman at a friend's wedding and we were taken over by his creativity and energy. We did some research on Elite Images and they never seem to disappoint and without hesitation, we booked them 10 months in advance for our Aug 2015 wedding.

    They showed up on a very timely manner to capture moments you wouldn't expect and imagine, their willingness to accommodate your vision makes your special day a celebration you'll never forget.

    Aman Bal and his team really knows what they're doing.

    Everyone at our wedding fed off the high energy Aman provided and no matter where the bride and groom was, there was ALWAYS a photographer.

    I was told recently by a friend of mine, that she really regretted not hiring Aman as her videographer.

    Special thanks to Aman Bal for the SDE and "the ring toss"....... we love you!

    My wife and I got married in Aug 2014, but resisted writing this review until we received the final product and had time to peruse over the content. Note that most of the delay was probably our fault -- we did not get everything Aman asked until about early December, and received the final products in early March (which, of course, we loved).

    We were referred to Aman by our wedding coordinator, Phyllis. In total we approached three videographers for wedding videography, and we were initially impressed with the details that Aman went into answering our questions in emails. During our wedding planning process It was amazing how difficult it is to get people to answer a bullet-pointed list of question point by point. Aman did just that and then some -- it was educational to correspond with Aman on emails.

    Of course, on the wedding day Aman was wonderful. He was funny, easy to work with, and went beyond just his duty as a videographer by giving occasional suggestions about what we can do to entertain the guests. His interaction with the guests to prepare the blooper section of the video was also particularly important for us. In a way, we're not just paying for a person to record the event of the day, but also to provide another aspect of the wedding festivities that the guests can also enjoy.

    After the wedding day , we were able to get Aman to make the coming-soon video and photo session slideshow to play in our receptions.
    All in all we were impressed with Aman Bal and would highly recommend him. It felt a bit expensive when we were doing our initial searches but in the end it was definitely worth the money.

    Need a photographer for your film shoot? Then I suggest you hire Aman Bal! Not only is he one of the nicest human beings I've had the pleasure of meeting he flat out is one of the best photographers I know.

    Aman has a great eye! He knows how to capture that MOMENT. I was very pleased with the array of shots he provided. We have actually used more shots in the films press kit then we had planned on due to the great amount of pictures he took for us.

    Due to his quality work, amazing attitude and professionalism I wholeheartedly recommend Elite Images and Aman Bal.

    We were referred to Elite Images by our wedding planner. We knew we wanted a wedding video but did not want to pay some of the high asking prices out there.

    There's not much more I can say that hasn't already been mentioned. Aman's team works unobtrusively and cooperatively with the photographers. Aman keeps you informed and updated in the post production process.

    We are very impressed with the final product and highly recommend Elite Images.

    There is no one who is more deserving of a great review, than Aman Bal. At the time my husband and I first met Aman, I was pregnant and looking for someone to possibly shoot both, our wedding as well as our maternity photos. I had met with several photographers prior to having met with Aman. If you are like I was, you're probably looking for the absolute best photographer, yet are slightly scared of the cost. Well I'll tell you right now, Aman could charge double what he does and get away with it...but he doesn't, because that's just the type of person he is. All the other photographers were trying to nickel and dime us, saying they would be able to add one thing, but wouldn't be able to another ( such as editing, and things like that.)

    From the very moment we met with Aman at his studio, we knew he was the one. There's just something about meeting someone who simply loves what they do, a true artist, and right off the bat, that was apparent with him. We trusted him, and knew he would go above and beyond for us...and did he ever. Our maternity shoot was GORGEOUS. And our wedding, well the photos made our jaw drop. We had a beach ceremony, and the photos look like they're torn straight out of a magazine. (Check out the pictures I posted :) Aside from his stunning photography and natural talent, there's so much more that makes Aman stand out from the rest. And might I just add, he has this way of way of making you feel like you are his #1 priority and his only client, when in reality, he is basically booked every week.

    He was there early; stayed late. He put me at ease (both, as a 7 month pregnant lady, and a bride... that's no easy task). He is willing to work with you on so many different levels. There were times I couldn't talk on the phone because I had a sleeping baby on me, so we would communicate through email. There were times I could only talk on the phone because I had a screaming baby in my arms, and he was always there to answer

    I would describe Aman and his photography as ARTISTIC, STUNNING, VERSATILE, and just plain amazing! My husband and I have gotten so many compliments from all of our family and friends about our wedding pictures and I'm so happy to have had Aman as my photographer! He's so talented and easy to work with. I wanted my wedding to have a romantic, whimsical, elegant feel to it and I sent him a couple of pictures over email of what I had in mind. He not only captured my wedding perfectly on the day of, but stylistically the pictures came out beyond expectations! It was exactly what I wanted and more. My friends and family have been to a couple of weddings before ours, and they came up to me after they saw my wedding album on Facebook and said she was the best they've seen so far (of course we already knew that - that's why we hired Aman Bal and Elite Images!)

    Our engagement shoot turned out amazing too - I honestly think one of the best thing you can find in a photographer is one with an artistic eye - they can turn any moment and any scene into a beautiful one. We went 30 minutes over our contracted time at our engagement shoot but Aman didn't even mention it at all. He was so sweet and friendly, and he continued clicking away until we got all the shots we wanted. I'm so happy with his work and I would recommend elite images to anyone that's looking for an amazing, talented photographer who listens and really cares about what you and what you want.

    Aman Bal and his staff did a wonderful job on our wedding video! It captured both our humor and our love perfectly Aman was great in working with our budget, very responsive, extremely prompt and he went out of his way to make our experience so great. I can't wait to watch our video over and over again with our friends and family. It was SO worth it to hire Elite Images. I'd recommend them highly to anyone looking to capture their special day that passes so quickly. Photos truly are not enough to remember it all and the video captures so much more. Thanks again Aman!

    OMG! I absolutely LOVE our wedding video. I am obsessed with it and I just got it last night. I've probably already watched it like 19 times. I found online and his great reviews lead me to his website where I basically cried watching all of his videos and I knew I had to have him! I am soooooo sooooo sooooo happy we found him and he was able to film our wedding. He does such an amazing job and captures your day perfectly! I cannot thank you enough for this wonderful video you've given me for the rest of my life! Just hire him and you won't regret it!

    Aman and his team did a great job filming every aspect of our wedding. His people were professional as they worked and rarely felt intrusive as they filmed from so many angles throughout the ceremony and reception.

    Aman captured all the important moments and ultimately gave us an immaculately produced and edited video that really condensed the whole night into one watchable product. Great job and I totally recommended.

    elite images is the best!

    We had quite some difficulty in choosing our wedding photographer from tens of photography studios in the vancouver area. We ended up with elite images because of the following reasons: (1) elite images can capture the unique, transient and unforgettable moments as indicated by the sample photos. In comparison, the sample photos taken by many other studio are quite stiff. (2) Many sample photos are very smart in making use of light and background in composition. (3) Aman is always a prompt and pleasant communicator, and we infer our communication with the photographer will be a pleasant one.

    We made the right choice! Aman was a very professional and pleasant photographer! He took approaching 500 photos from different perspectives in the 2 hour session, and almost all photos tell their interesting stories! The light and composition are great! The post-processing is fantastic.

    3 MONTHS LATER: We still love the photos! My wife and I can only meet once per month due to our work: I am a professor on the east coast, and my wife has to finish her postdoc work on the west coast and have her papers accepted by the top journals before she can put her in the job market and join me. Every time we view our photos together, we feel love is great, life is great, and they are worth our efforts!

    Is it possible to give 10 stars? We were beyond satisfied with the service and product produced Aman Bal and his company. His company truly made our wedding stress free. All of our questions were answered in a timely manner, whether through email or phone, thanks to their awesome contact person Aman.

    We arrived 20 minutes late, but when we arrived, Aman got to shooting right away. He made us feel comfortable, and believe me, we are the most awkward people in the world.

    We were going to present our video during xmas , but when we received the still images and the slideshow three days after the ceremony, we were blown away by the photos. The images consisted of the perfect mixture of photographic styles. Additionally, Aman truly utilized our surroundings to capture some awesome images--a puddle of water on the ground to capture the reflection of city hall, a random dude reading a book on the steps of city hall, velvet rope dividers placed in the foreground to act as a frame for us, and his play with depth of field and focus was awesome. So, our plan deviated and we presented the slideshow on Christmas Eve.

    During our wedding planning, we decided early on that our photos were an important part of our day and that we wanted them to document our wedding as best as possible.

    Right from the moment that we met with Aman, we knew that Elite Images were the photographers for us - and they did not disappoint! Our wedding party, family, and friends were also very impressed with how well Aman Bal was able to capture the day with a mix of candids and posed photos. They are very professional, open to the bride and grooms ideas, and are so fun to work with!

    Our engagement and wedding photos were perfect and we will definitely enjoy them for years to come. We can't wait for the next opportunity to hire these photographers again!

    My family and friends to this day still rave about what an amazing photographer Aman Bal was and how great he was to work with.

    We were very picky when we set off on our research for a wedding photographer. We didn't want pose-y wedding photography with a keen eye to capture special, candid and even quirky moments of the day. We researched for weeks and saw lots of other portfolios and packages that were pricey and the work wasn't up to snuff -- many others use the Instagram/Hipstamatic touch-up effects when it really masked actual talent and even a great camera/technical skills. The end result with Aman Bal exceeded our expectations.

    We got hi-res photos and a beautiful photo book in the end. Aman Bal delivered above and beyond and we'd recommend him for any special occasion. He doesn't advertise as much as others do, so he's a really hidden gem!

    Best experience and service, Aman Bal and Elite Images team went above and beyond. They made the experience enjoyable and produced amazing photographs. Was well organized and went over all of the details ahead of the wedding. Could not have selected a better photographer.

    My husband and I really enjoyed working with Aman Bal for our wedding. Aman Bal and Amrik Singh were our photographers on our wedding day. They were both very friendly and easy to get along with. It was obvious that they really enjoyed what they were doing and had a lot of pride in their work.The videographer was also great to work with. We had a relatively small wedding (500 people), and we were worried that with so many photographers/videographers, we would be bumping into them all night. But, they were able to get great shots without being in the way at all, and we are so happy we decided to get 2 photographers and a videographer. The company is very quick to respond to any of our questions and they have also been very good at keeping us informed of how long it will take to get photos, albums, etc. Most importantly, our wedding photos are gorgeous!! We also worked with Aman Bal for our engagement photos, and they turned out beautiful as well. I would definitely recommend Aman Bal and Elite Images to a friend.

    What more can I say other than Aman Bal was the perfect photographer...and everyone at the wedding agreed. His portfolio of work from our wedding actually led to Rick doing 4 more weddings just from our wedding.

    His photography went beyond just the images. He really translated what it was like to be there. You can almost feel the wedding night just by looking at the images. He captured emotions that my wife and I will forever be able to relive every time we open the wedding album.

    We had a wedding weekend in Thailand and Aman Bal came for the entire thing. He shot continuously while we surfed, prepped, got married, and danced our feet off during the reception. Aman felt like part of the family after the weekend was over and he still does.

    Aman Bal did an amazing job with our wedding photos, so creative and fun! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer. He made the whole experience relaxing and fun for both my husband and I, especially with so much going on the day of, he allowed us to have the enjoyable time together and captured those moments. I loved the photos that I didn't even know were going on, so many moments I missed the day of, I was able to re-live through these photos. Thanks for everything!!
