Lesley R. Sent on 03/29/2024Exceptional!
La Vie and their entire team were exceptional from start to finish as our wedding photographers. From the initial consultation through two days of wedding events, including photographs at a church wedding, welcome party, hair and make up, first looks, and a big gregarious reception capturing so many exceptional moments and personalities. Their photographers, Jose and Casey Marie, are so professional, unintrusive, all knowing, and everywhere making every aspect of the experience exceptional. They are incredibly talented professionals. Their professional demeanors helped alleviate any nerves we may have had, allowing us to relax and enjoy the moments fully. They were attentive to our needs and preferences and provided guidance to obtain fabulous photos. Their dedication to their craft and commitment to client satisfaction truly sets them apart. Overall, I cannot recommend Jose highly enough. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who will not only capture stunning images but also provide an unparalleled experience, look no further.

Amazing Photo Team!
There are not enough words to describe how amazing our experience with La Vie was. From engagement shoot to wedding day, the team made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and delivered the MOST amazing photos we could have ever imagined. Everything was delivered in an online album in a timely manner, and edited to perfection! I wish there was an option for more than 5 ⭐️ - do not hesitate with booking La Vie!La Vie Studios's reply:
Taylor!!! We're not crying, you're crying! Thank you, thank you, thank you! We're deeply humbled by your kind words and beyond grateful to have been a part of such a fun experience! Your wedding was a whole VIBE!!! I mean, a club LIV party sign? C'mon! Hahaha the entire team still hasn't stopped raving about your wedding. Cheers to a lifetime of love, laughter, and health! -

Working with La Vie was such a wonderful experience!! We received such amazing feedback from all of our friends and family regarding how much they enjoyed their interactions and professionalism. Additionally, the lead photographer, Jose, was instrumental in being such a great support for me on my big day!! I didn't feel nervous until I started getting ready and he knew exactly what to say to help me feel as calm as I possibly could have been! We have only seen a couple sneak peeks but the work already is incredible - They knew the exact shots to take and were so wonderful in managing all of our guests, even the little ones. From their personable demeanor to their professionalism, I would use them again in a heartbeat. I can't say enough wonderful things about how much we loved working with them!La Vie Studios's reply:
Awwww, Bethanie! We can't thank you enough for the kind words! You and Cliff were such a joy to work with and be around! Thank you so very much for your trust, and for being a reminder of why we absolutely LOVE what we do for a living. (:
Big hugs and much love always!

La Vie Studios is truly a one of a kind wedding photography team. They were able to work with us and capture our wedding in such a vibrant and unique way that truly captured the essence of the day. They captured everything from us getting ready, to the ceremony, to the after party and so much more. Just about every one of our guests got a beautiful photo. I highly recommend them for all your wedding photography and videography needs.La Vie Studios's reply:

Gorgeous photos and great people (and you'll be spending a lot of time with your photographer so this matters more than you think). Worth the extra money. I'll let the photos speak for themselves -

Jose + la vie studios = best photographer in the game!
Choosing Jose and La Vie Studios for our wedding was the best decision we made for the wedding hands-down!!! They made coordinating and planning a timeline effortless and smooth, which was super helpful while planning the wedding myself. Every single picture we have is a winner, beautiful, personal, and frame-worthy! I've only had the pictures back for about a week and have already received several comments that they're the best wedding pictures anyone's ever seen, and I agree. On top of that, Jose was incredibly personable, funny, creative, and professional and worked insanely hard throughout the day to capture all the perfect moments! He was working very hard, but also felt like a part of the party interacting with the guests and family. My new husband and I are both pretty awkward photo subjects and he made it feel effortless and comfortable (which, trust me, is a struggle)! I cannot emphasize enough how gorgeous every single picture we have turned out! Jose and La Vie Studios get 10 out of 5 stars in my book-- we are incredibly grateful and I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone who needs professional photography or is planning an event!La Vie Studios's reply:
Liz!!! You're the sweetest! We can't thank you enough for the kind words and for allowing us to be a part of such a fun wedding! Everything turned out so stunning. It was a great time getting all of those incriminating photos - as requested! LOL!
We're wishing you and Nick boat loads of health, wealth, and happiness foreva-eva!!!
Big hugs,

La vie is the best
Jess, Jose and the whole La Vie team are dream photographers!! Their work speaks for itself with the simple, elegant, pure moments they capture. My experience with Jess from the first time I reached out was nothing short of perfect- she, as well as the team, were kind and very devoted to making our day special. They captured all the special moments and made pictures feel easy and were always there to guide us and our families through the day. They are dedicated, passionate, kind and so so talented.
Having a photographer capture moments that you will look back on for the rest of your life is imperative and I would look for them to capture this moment time and time again. I can’t ever thank them enough and if you are looking for a photographer you won’t find anyone better than La Vie!!La Vie Studios's reply:
Awwwwww, Catalina! What kind words. -

1 word: Incredible. Everything you will ever want in your photos and MORE. Weddings are expensive and the investment I made in Jose & his team will last lifetimes. I will show these pictures to my kids, my grandkids, even strangers on the street!! Why I loved them? 1. I got to live in the moment and they captured everything without me needing to say anything 2. They are quick to respond, you can trust them, & they’re kind 3. The photos are INCREDIBLE. Just book them. Trust me, an internet stranger, BUT a past bride who didn’t trust anyone and is literally crying looking at her photos. Do it!!La Vie Studios's reply:
Jessica!!!! I'm not crying, you're crying. I can't thank you enough for the kind words! You and Darius were such a joy to work with. Not to mention your wedding party and other guests as well. It's only right that awesome people attract more awesome people, and that's apparent with all the relationships and love you both have surrounding you. I'm overjoyed for the two of you and your growing family. Congratulations on your baby boy, and congratulations on a stunning wedding!!! The team and I are wishing you a lifetime of love, laughter, health, and wealth! -

12/10 amazing
With all of the many many decisions there are to make in wedding planning, hiring a really great photographer was #1 on the priority list for me. After scanning many.. MANY options, I fell in love with the unique, gorgeous photography style La Vie Studios provides. I reached out and right away I had a call set up with Jess, who would later become our lead photographer 😉. By the end of that call I knew I wanted La Vie Studios to photograph our wedding. Jess was so fun and easy to talk to, her personality drew us in and made me feel like I had known her for years. Whenever I had a question she would cheerfully respond to me & it was always such a big help. When tour wedding day finally came, Jess and her team were beyond incredible. So professional, talented, and absolute bosses at navigating the craziness that comes with the morning of the wedding. Jess even went beyond her duties and wore many hats on our day, helping in many occasions, even at one point helping by putting a memory bouquet charm on my bridal bouquet when I didn’t have the time to. It was so pleasant to have them as our photographers, I did not need to worry for a second about anything being missed, Jess knew just where to be and when and got every shot we’d wanted. If all of that isn’t already enough to explain why you should book them, let me tell you our mouths were on the FLOOR when we received our wedding photo previews about 24 hour later. We were able to share photos right away and received so many compliments! The photos are so gorgeous I literally cried when I went through them at that’s just the previews! hahaha. Jess and her team captured our day so beautifully. I will never forget it. Jess, Thank you for being such a huge part of our day and capturing these memories that we will look back on for the rest of our lifetime. Words can’t express our gratitude! 🤍🫶🏻 -

Wedding Photographer
When I started booking vendors for my wedding I prioritized which ones were most important to me, which for me, was the photographer. I did a lot of research, and finally found la vie studios. The uniqueness of their photos really stood out to me. From the first time I contacted Jose at La Vie studios, he was so quick to respond and so friendly.
Jose and Jess are both so sweet. They were a lot of fun to photograph with and made me feel super comfortable. They were organized and always running on time or ahead of schedule. As the bride, I figured we would probably spend all of cocktail hour taking pictures. But they were able to get all of the pictures we asked for and sooo many more so we were able to attend the cocktail hour with everyone else. During the reception you hardly notice they are there taking pictures of you because they feel like another guest at the wedding.
Finally, the picture of our wedding couldn't be more perfect. Looking at them, I feel like I can relive the whole wedding day. The captured every little detail. I couldn't be happier with how they turned out!La Vie Studios's reply:
Cathryn!!! Your kind words have made our day! Thank you so much for putting your trust in us to bring your wedding vision to life. It's always so special getting to share these moments with wonderful folks like yourself, Jared, your families, and friends. We're wishing you endless years of love, laughter, health, and wealth! Don't be strangers whenever you're around! -

Jose and the La Vie Team could not have been more incredible on our big day. Even for an insanely indecisive person like myself, La Vie was an easy choice and one I did not hesitate to make. In fact, La Vie Studios was the very first vendor we booked for our wedding. After seeing Jose's gallery from a friend's engagement at Vizcaya (our venue), we knew that there was no one else to shoot our wedding. Jose and the La Vie Team were just a fantastic resource for us and provided us guidance throughout the entire planning process and day of - they are almost planners and photographers/videographers all in one. The Team made sure to capture every single moment of our day and made it possible for us to relive the best day over and over again. My husband and I would choose La Vie Studios a million times over. THANK YOU Jose and the incredible team, we are so grateful for these precious memories you've captured for us.La Vie Studios's reply:
Hi Sara! Thank YOU so much for having us be a part of the magic! Your wedding was straight up something out of a fairytale! It was truly special to be there to document it all in photos and videos. Vizcaya is one of our favorite venues and it's never looked better than with you and Peter in it! Thank you for trusting us and trusting our process. Couples like you are the reason why we love what we do wholeheartedly. It was such a fun and easy experience working together! You're an amazing couple and we wish you nothing short of all the best life has to offer. -

La Vie was a dream!
I don’t know where to begin. From the moment we found La Vie Photography we were blown away by the attention to details, color treatments and real life that was captured in their images. After talking to Jose, I knew this was the team we wanted at our wedding. We booked our wedding pre-covid and they were flexible when we had to move our date. Leading up to the wedding, all contracts and communications were extremely professional and day of our wedding they arrived on time, stuck to the schedule and had everyone feeling at ease. We loved how much fun the whole team was - they were out on the dance floor, dancing while taking pictures/videos (my dad is still talking about how much he loved this). My husband is a serial non-smiler for pictures and Jose, Jess and the crew got so many awesome pictures of him genuinely smiling (teeth and all) and we only have the previews so far! I am so excited we have such beautiful memories of this day! I’ve cried tears of joy looking through them and remembering all of our favorite wedding moments. La Vie Photo/Video was worth every penny!

Sapir E. Sent on 05/25/2020La Vie Studios are A++++
y wedding was postponed indefinitely because of the COVID-19 pandemic. My fiance and i decided instead of postponing everything indefinitely, we'd throw a small ceremony in a family member's backyard. Jose and Jess worked with us on their original proposal and not only gave us amazing engagement photos, also split the time from our package to cover our backyard wedding and agreed to honor their original price for the eventual party, when those are allowed again. The photos are as good as all the other reviewers say, but more importantly, Jose is so positive and so on board with all your ideas. He made us feel like fun, goofy, beautiful geniuses. Also, every single woman and gay man at our backyard event asked me for his number. He is too handsome to be behind the camera.
If you're on the fence between La Vie and another photographer, and you want to know your photographer will be a partner to you on your big day or event, go with La Vie. They are more than just excellent photographers. They are excellent people.
La Vie Studios's reply:
Awww, Sapir! You're too sweet! Thank you and Erica from the bottom of our hearts for supporting our business during these trying times. Your backyard wedding was absolutely stunning and it was amazing being there to document it! The cabin fever from quarantine was starting to set in so it was especially nice and refreshing to kick it with your families for such a special event. Can't wait to party it up with y'all on an even bigger scale when this whole thing blows over and you can have the official partayyyy!!! Woot Woot!!!

When my fiancé and I discussed what was most important to us about our wedding, I said food and she said pictures. I’m glad I listened to her because Jose and La Vie studios were incredible. They were so fun to work with and the pictures came out amazing. They kept us on time and got some very cool and unique shots. They were super organized, talented and professional. It became very clear that they are in a league of their own. Thank you so much. Highest of regards in my book.La Vie Studios's reply:

Jose went above and beyond to make our photography dreams a reality. He was flexible as we developed our package and extremely responsive to all emails.

Excellent Photo/Video Team
We hired La Vie Studios for our wedding in December 2020 in Key Largo for both photo and video (we also had them do our engagement shoot in 2019). Jose was our dedicated photog and he was great, very friendly, lots of fun, professional, and a great artistic eye. He and his team were wonderful at the wedding and guests commented on how great the photographers were. They were flexible on adding some additional hours of coverage last minute (in addition to moving the entire event 9 months due to the pandemic). We love the photos and the short video clip that we've seen so far and would not hesitate to strongly recommend La Vie Studios to anyone!! -

We used La Vie Studios for both photography and videography and they were absolutely incredible!! They captured every special moment, twinkle, laugh, tear and essence of our wedding. Initially we were debating whether to have video because it was a last minute Covid wedding, but after seeing the footage and everything they captured, we were so happy we did.
The entire team was amazing and we could not be happier with the final result. Not only do we love the photos, but all of our friends and family do too! Everyone who has seen our photos (and insta friendly one-minute trailer video) have praised the amazing job La Vie did and the moments they captured. Search no further, hire La Vie for your event! -

I am so lucky to have La Vie Studio capture my wedding day. Jose was so easy to work with and very easy to communicate with leading up to our special day. His team was kind, timely and professional. Every single photo from the wedding was perfection.

Highly Recommend La Vie Studios!
Jose and Jess from La Vie Studios are a dream to work with. I loved all of the samples wedding galleries on their site and knew that I wanted them to photograph our wedding. I booked La Vie prior to the pandemic and it was the best decision I made. I just received our full gallery and I am in love with all of the pictures. I'm having a hard time trying to pick which ones to print and put up in our new house. Jose and Jess make you feel at ease through the entire process from booking all the way through the wedding day. As soon as I met them, I knew it was going to be a great experience. Thank you La Vie for photographing our wedding day and allowing us to relive the memories forever through the images. I'm obsessed, highly recommend.La Vie Studios's reply:
Oh stop! But go on... Haha thank you for the kind words, Nicole! You and JC are a dream to work with too! Your wedding was such a breath of fresh air coming out of quarantine. Everything about it was amazing and we are beyond grateful to have been a part of it. We'd tell you to print them all and just rotate them, but we're not biased at all.
