Julie Sent on 05/19/2026Amazing Experience
Tina and the whole Lifelong Photography team were absolutely INCREDIBLE! I was a super anxious bride and from the minute Tina got to the venue, all my worried melted away. She was SO warm, friendly, fun, and professional. She knew exactly how to make the experience fun and not intimidating at all! I could've taken pictures with Tina all day. The whole party, especially my groom, was unsure how the pictures would go since we aren't very photogenic people. The pictures turned out absolutely incredible and now we have hundreds and hundreds of amazing photos that will last a lifetime! I can't say enough amazing things about our photography experience! -

Stacie Sent on 04/17/2026Amazing photo team!
Buffy and the entire Lifelong team were amazing!! From our initial call, we appreciated their professionalism and organization. We started with an engagment photo shoot and the weather disrupted our planned location but Buffy came through with an awesome back up option. It was our first photoshoot as a couple but she made us feel comfortable and confident and helped us lean into our chemistry, which really shows in the photos! On our wedding day, Buffy and team came prepared with so many touches to add to our detail shots and a film camera as we requested. Buffy was my hype girl and the photos show it. She had so many clever ideas for shots and throughout the night added even more. The team made sure to capture all of the shots we wanted with family, friends, dancing, and special moments plus so many creative shots! 10/10! The editing team does a great job giving such a magical touch to the photos. We love Lifelong and definitely recommend them for your wedding! -

If I could give Tina a million stars, it still wouldn’t be enough to express my gratitude! From the moment she picked up her camera, she didn’t just take photos—she froze moments in time, bottling up the magic of my tropical Barbie dream wedding in a way that still leaves me speechless. 🌴💖
Every single detail—the vibrant paradise setting, my breathtaking Berta Bridal dress, my adorable mini bride, and yes, even the live flamingos gracefully strutting through our fairytale—was captured with such perfection and artistry that I still can’t believe it’s real. But thanks to Tina, I get to relive it all, every single day (and trust me, I do).
The way she played with light, color, and emotion—every photo is a masterpiece. She didn't just capture the wedding; she captured the energy, the joy, the wild fun, and the love that filled the air. It’s as if she took the heartbeat of the day and turned it into images.
Tina, you have given me the greatest gift imaginable—the ability to step back into the most magical day of my life whenever I want. I will treasure these photos forever and ever. If you’re lucky enough to book her, prepare to be absolutely obsessed with your wedding photos. She is the BEST. 💕📸🔥
With endless love and gratitude,

Buffy, Tina, and the Lifelong Team did an outstanding job capturing our wedding more than we could have imagined! We had our first conversation in the Fall of 2023 and I instantly knew I found our wedding photographer. Buffy and Tina checked up on us periodically in the most kind, patient, and professional manner. On the day of the wedding, she kept our group on time while capturing all of the important moments. We just got our first batch of pictures back yesterday and we are obsessed!! Can't wait for the final drop. Thank you for everything! -

Awesome people who do awesome work
Jorge and Marissa were simply the best. In fact, everyone I dealt with at Lifelong was incredible. Leading up to the wedding they took the time to call me and crafted a timeline for me. On the day, Jorge and Marissa were kind, funny, hardworking, and really made everyone comfortable being in front of the camera. By the end of the day they truly felt like our friends! They worked so hard and found so many awesome spots for photos! They also came so prepared, seeing as I forgot most things I would need for the details shots! They helped the day run smoothly and the pictures came out drop dead gorgeous. I would hire them ten times over! Thank you so much again for making our day so special! -

Megan Sent on 03/26/2024Amazing photographer in Tampa/Sarasota!
The best decision hiring Lifelong Photography for my wedding day and engagement shoot photography!! I had Buffy as my lead photographer, but she brought two amazing photographers with her as well! They made me feel so comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. We just got our sneak peeks back (after only 1.5 weeks!) and I absolutely love them!! We got 70 which I feel like is a lot for sneak peeks, which was so appreciated. Can't wait to see the rest of them! Would definitely recommend anyone from the Lifelong team for your wedding day and I felt they were very fairly priced compared to others in the area. Thank you so much for capturing the best day of our lives in a way that represented our favorite moments! -

Alexis Sent on 02/18/2024Amazing experience!
Our experience with Lifelong Photography Studio, led by Gabrielle and Angelina, was nothing short of exceptional. Gabrielle and Angelina made us feel incredibly at ease throughout the entire process. Their kindness, professionalism, and creative vision were evident from the start, and it was clear that they were truly passionate about their craft. What impressed us most was their ability to make us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. As someone who typically feels uneasy being photographed, I was pleasantly surprised by how relaxed and natural I felt with Gabrielle and Angelina. Their timeline was seamless, allowing us to enjoy every moment of our wedding day without feeling rushed or stressed. And from the sneak peeks we've seen so far, the photos are simply breathtaking, and we're beyond excited to see the rest. Gabrielle and Angelina are a dream team in every sense of the word, and we feel incredibly grateful to have had them capture our special day. -

Buffy was incredible! Due to our own issues with scheduling, we didn't have the engagement photoshoot until 2 days before the wedding. It was ultimately perfect, Buffy made sure we were comfortable and did everything to help us prep for the actual day of. She was great with communication and on time for everything. During the actual ceremony and cocktail hour, the team wasn't intrusive and the pics are perfect. Thank you! -

From start to finish, the process of working with Lifelong was smooth and professional. We had Buffy as our main photographer for our November 2023 wedding at the Museum of Fine Arts in St. Pete. We also did an engagement session with her at the University of Tampa earlier in the year (which was included in our package). Both sets of photos turned out so beautiful, and the turnaround for the editing process was so fast!! We really enjoyed working with Buffy (and team)--they knew all the good spots for taking photos at our venue, and they knew exactly how to direct us for posing even though we are both very camera shy. I love that they included some creative artistic shots too! I would highly recommend Lifelong!! -

Best wedding photographers ever!!!!
I cannot recommend our photographer Kristin and Lifelong photography enough! Their communication was clear and timely, they were always pleasant to talk to over the phone, and they were very professional. Our photographer Kristin was absolutely amazing. She was prompt, professional, but at the same time was laid back and made the entire experience super fun. They were one of my absolute favorite vendors!!! Thank you Kristin and Lifelong!!!

We came across Lifelong Photography here on Wedding Wire and immediately understood why they had such outstanding ratings. The entire staff are a joy to work and communicate with. When we booked our Wedding Day Photography, we also booked our Engagement Shoot included in our package and were so impressed by the photography quality. It’s completely our style and what we were going for. We worked with Emily for both sessions who went above and beyond for us. We also booked a Photobooth for our reception and received a flash drive and photo book of everyone who took pictures there with a customized photo strip. It was a great gift to remember the night. The entire staff did a tremendous job at making our day feel so special and memorable. We couldn’t be more grateful. We would recommend them to anyone. -

Lifelong is Amazing!
Loved Buffy and Lifelong photography. From our first meeting doing our engagement pictures at the St Pete Pier we loved her work and vision. On the day of our wedding she did a great job of capturing every moment and we loved every picture! Our sneak peaks were released yesterday and we couldn’t be happier with the final product. Her 2nd shooter Emily was also a rockstar. She did a lot of the solo shots for my husband and the ones including his groomsmen. He loved how encouraging she was and how easily she explained what she wanted him to do. Would highly recommend Buffy, Emily, and Lifelong photography! -

The best photographers in the game!
We used lifelong for our wedding & I would recommend them to anyone! We had 2 photographers, Gabrielle & Kristin- who were both incredible! They were so helpful with poses, had so many great ideas & made all the pictures so much fun! They made sure to get all the photos on my must have shot list & shoot in multiple locations which I appreciated so much! My husband & I were both so comfortable with both of our photographers & they documented our day so perfectly. We received our sneak peek pictures in less than 2 weeks (which I was SO HAPPY about!). We cannot wait to get the rest of our album! -

Lifelong came recommended by our planner and let me tell you - their recommendation was SPOT ON.

Lifelong Photography Studio
We LOVED using Lifelong for our wedding day! Emily was amazing, her energy, personality were exactly what we needed to feel comfortable being photographed all day! Even for our engagement shoot, we photographed it in the pouring rain and she was still our ultimate hype girl! She even did a great job getting family to cooperate for family portraits at the wedding (which was a task in itself). We wanted a photographer that captured the fun and in the moment photos - not just posed shots and that’s exactly what we got! We couldn’t be happier! -

If you are looking for a wedding photographer, you can just stop right here!!! I can't say enough about how great the team at Lifelong is. They are great at getting back to you if you have any questions. We had to push our wedding because of COVID, and they were extremely accommodating. Because of scheduling, we were assigned a different photographer for our wedding day than the one who took our engagement photos. That was 1000% OK because we were able to schedule another engagement session with our new photographer, Jorge, who was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! On our wedding day, Jorge and his assistant, Sookie, showed up and we had the best day ever!! Everyone in our wedding party came up to my husband and I with nothing but good things to say about the energy and creativeness that these two brought to our day. We got to take the most beautiful photos on the beach at sunset and I can't wait to find another excuse to work with them again. -

Fabulous! :)
I love, love, love our wedding photos! Emily was our photographer for our engagement session and our lead for our wedding day again! She did a fantastic job capturing all the little and big moments. I was very impressed by all the different angles she used. The candids and portraits turned out STUNNING! After seeing how amazing our engagement session photos came out, I knew we were in good hands for the big day! She was great at communicating and made it easy to try out different poses. I would have never thought to take some of the pictures, and I am glad Lifelong was our photographer! I cannot say enough nice things about this company! They were FABULOUS, and I recommend them 100 percent! -

I can't say enough wonderful things about the Lifelong team. From their amazing photography expertise, to the kindness and love they showed my wedding party on the big day, Lifelong Photography is truly in a class above the rest.
Buffy and Emily were my dream wedding photographers. They were so kind and supportive throughout the day. They made us all feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. And their talent was readily apparent. Simply put, they are the best of the best.
Not only do I consider Buffy and Emily as fantastic photographers, I now consider them as my friends. They added such brightness and positivity to my wedding. They truly are wonderful people.

Lifelong Photography was wonderful to work with and very thorough and flexible with our request during the planning period. On the day of our wedding, we met Emily for the first time and felt very comfortable in front of the camera (which was my biggest worry). She checked in on my husband and me throughout the night to ensure we were ok. Our sneak peeks are so beautiful, I can't wait to see the full images. -

Simply the best
I was familiar with Lifelong Studios already, and I was so happy to be able to hire them for my own wedding. We've actually engaged them for two events - one in 2020, and one upcoming in 2021. We rescheduled our original celebration from October 2020 to October 2021, but still got married in a very small 20-person ceremony and dinner in Philippe Park in October 2020.
First of all, they are so easy to work with - they presented us some wonderful options for our small event in 2020 and were so flexible in making sure we had the coverage we needed. But even though our event was smaller, Lifelong treated us just like we were a huge expensive event, giving us so much care and attention and making us feel great. Our lead photographer Kristin is a hype master, making everyone feel so comfortable even when you're feeling awkward posing and taking photos in public. And assistant Isabelle was so helpful as well. They flew through our list of photos and guided us around the park to some of the best locations.
We are so thrilled with how beautiful our photos turned out, and we can't wait to see a whole new round of photos after we have our big celebration in October 2021! Thank you so much!
*Update: We just received our October 2021 photos today, and it was even better than I could have imagined. Buffy and her team nailed every detail, and being able to see those moments again brought tears to my eyes. You are definitely missing out if you don't hire Lifelong! -

Amazing & Great People To Work With!
From first meeting Gabrielle we hit it off and really liked her. She is so sweet and talented! Lifelong Photography is more than hiring a photographer for your wedding day. They help work with you throughout the whole process. Helping with your timeline, your dress, making sure you have water if you need it...so much more than I would have expected. Gabrielle and her team are great to work with and helped make our wedding day more fun and relaxing! I'm so thankful I listened to her and added more time for photos so we were never rushing around and could fully enjoy every moment! We have received sneak peak photos already and can hardly wait to see the rest. We know they will be amazing! -

The Sweetest Photogrophers!!
I was referred to Lifelong by friends who've used them before and I could not have been happier or more grateful to have them as my photographers. The company first of all is very professional and easy to work with. Communication was excellent. I went with the package of two photographers day of with 8 hours of service. The package came with an engagement photo shoot , which was so much fun and a great way to ease in to a relationship with your photographer. Emily was my main photographer with Kristin helping her day of. Both Emily and Kristin were so much fun to work with! They were encouraging, made you and your wedding party feel wonderful and beautiful and fabulous! And of course the photos were beautiful and absolutely perfect thanks to their expertise behind the camera. Honestly, they are worth way more than they charge!!

Molly Sent on 09/17/2020Hands down the best decision we made!
Booking Lifelong Photography Studio was hands down the best decision we ever made for our wedding! Our wedding and engagement photoshoot plans changed several times even before COVID and the entire Lifelong team was always so accomodating, patient, and provided great insight for all of our questions. Due to various circumstances caused by the pandemic, we had to push up our wedding date by 5 months and thanks to Buffy we were able to have the elopement of our dreams despite only having a short time to plan it. Through several phone calls and texts she and Emily helped us find a venue and make plans and a timeline for our day. Buffy and Emily went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed during our day! Kristin edited our photos and she was extremely patient and responsive with us the whole time! Lifelong Photography Studio is so creative, professional, and compassionate and you can tell that they truly care about your wedding photos. Highly recommend Lifelong Photography Studio and we can't wait to work with them again in the future! -

Do you want MAGAZINE level photographs to enjoy for the rest of your life? Choose Lifelong photography!
Gabe and Anna were beyond extraordinary! Every photo came out spectacular and artistic because of their passion for photography. They spent every moment capturing the absolute best shot they could--You will get unique photographs perfect for your group, not the standard cookie cutter photos you see in your Facebook Feed. We can’t emphasize enough how personable and helpful they were throughout our entire day. With both of us not used to being in the spotlight, they showed us how to pose (AKA not look awkward), helped bustle my dress, and knew what pictures we would want--even though we had no clue, and were overall a positive energy the entire night! Gabe and Anna were a part of our special day and we couldn’t leave without taking a photo with them as well. Throughout the entire day (and night) they worked to capture our wedding day with lots of candid and designed photographs! I'm impressed by their ability to take dancing photos--Making people look good when they're buzzed and dancing like a wild man is a hard task to accomplish. We would work with Gabe and Anna again in a heartbeat for future projects or special occasions! I left our wedding day with two more friends. Gabe and Anna--We're hanging out when I come back to Tampa (someday).

All was perfect.
Our engagement session was on february 2019 in Tampa in the beach 6.30 am
It was the perfect time and idea of Buffy -the photographer. The photos are excellent and she is so nice
On our wedding day Buffy Came with a colleague. She went to an incredible amount of trouble. They both went to a lot of trouble. They started by photographing the bride's things and that takes time to get the groom's things. After that they took pictures of the bride alone and of the whole family outside. After the wedding we were still on a boat and I have to say she took incredibly beautiful photos. One picture is more beautiful than the other. We are incredibly happy and proud to have worked with her and would do it again anytime. She put so much effort into it and was always with her heart. What I liked very much was that she gave you tips and tricks how to look and stand best. She just has an absolute idea of what she is doing. She is wonderful and so heartful
We got 1300 pictures and one is better than the other one
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️ -

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lifelong Photography Studio! It's difficult to sift through the many of talented photographers, especially when planning a destination wedding. Lifelong Photography Studio was recommended by our wedding venue, The Don CeSar, so they were immediately on our short list. After doing a little research on availability, pricing, and style, we settled on Lifelong Photography Studio and it was one of the best decisions we made throughout the planning process.
They were wonderful to communicate with, made payment easy, assisted with the timeline for the day, and were true professionals. We hit the jackpot when we were assigned Jorge as our photographer. He's an absolute rock star! Our photos are simply gorgeous, and so far we've only gotten a sneak peek at everything. I would recommend Lifelong Photography Studio with zero reservations! -

You WILL NOT regret hiring Lifelong Photography for your wedding. The photographers really know how to capture the entire day - from the big moment at the ceremony, to the small details like showcasing earrings and necklaces. I've literally never met anybody more passionate about their work. They teach you how to move and position yourself so that you'll get the best candid photos. We hired multiple photographers this year for engagement and honeymoon sessions and they have outperformed everyone else. Their business name couldn't be more accurate - they will be our lifelong photographers for when our family grows and we have more special occasions. -

Wow....where do I even begin? Our entire experience from start to finish with Lifelong Photography was a complete dream. From the moment we met her, Anna made us feel like family and for someone who is not comfortable in front of the camera, she made me feel so calm and beautiful at all times.

I found Lifelong at one of the first bridal expos I attended when I first got engaged and I was mesmerized by their photobooks. I loved the soft and romantic look and thought they did an amazing job with how they captured the lighting of each photo. I liked how each photo looks so natural without ever being over editted but still, everything looks perfect. The girls at the booth were so sweet I made an appointment and was able to meet with Gabrielle. We loved Gabby's sweet and bubbly yet very professional personality so much that we knew we wanted her to shoot our wedding. I came accross other photographers great work but Lifelong was one of the first vendors we choose and it was an easy decision to make. Their prices for their quality of work was valid and competitive with other quotes from other companies we had gotten. Gabby was flexible in scheduling our engagement shoot and during it gave us great ideas but also listened to what we wanted and our vision and same for the actual wedding day. Even running late on the big day she was able to work with us and use the time to still capture great shots and keep everything running smoothly and me calm. The final pictures came out so beautiful and we couldn't have been happier. The whole team is so fun, professional and responsive and they really are talented! Highly recommend!! -

100% RECOMMEND! Friendly & professional!
Buffy and her team are AMAZING! Choosing a photographer was a process, and I am so grateful I found Lifelong. I didn't want my photos to be over-edited, and Buffy nailed it! One of the things I loved was that we were able to schedule a meeting with her at the Lifelong studio. It was nice to be surrounded with their work, and truly get a feel for her passion and our options. We mentioned that we wanted a bilingual photographer, and Buffy arranged for us to have Jorge as a second shooter-- and we LOVED him as well! They will do ANYTHING for perfect shots, and I also loved that Buffy would let me know to stick my chin out, fix my hand placement, hair, etc.- but in a subtle way so we never felt posed or anything like that. You want someone that will look out for you so that you always look best. BUFFY, JORGE, and Lifelong are ALL about the details! The day of my wedding, we were expecting bad weather--- without saying anything- they showed up early and got right to work so they could start scoping out plans. Sure enough it started raining RIGHT when we were going to do our first look. Buffy took control, had a backup plan, and made sure we still got our photos -while doing everything to remain on time. My friends and family were blown away with how hard they worked. They were even barking and making all sorts of noises so they could get our precious pup to cooperate for photos. Ali was also wonderful! Communication was great the entire way through. I cannot recommend Buffy, Jorge, and the Lifelong team enough. They are PASSIONATE professionals! Thank you for all you did for us. -

When I tell people about our wedding, I say we had The Dream Team. Lifelong Photography is definitely at the top of that list. We worked with Gabrielle, she's so sweet and fun to be around. Every time I would catch a glimpse of her camera screen I would tell her she's magical. Even our wedding coordinator couldn't get enough. I believe her words were "holy moly". About 2 weeks before our wedding I had a mini melt down. Gabrielle talked to me for about an hour and told me not to worry, that everything would be perfect. She was right! I couldn't have been happier with the experience and quality. We just received a preview of some of our photos and I am SO excited to see the rest of them. They are perfection!!! -

Beautiful photos, and a dream to work with!
From the moment I saw Lifelong Photography Studio's work, I was in love with their bright, airy and authentic images. Not only is their work beautiful, but they are a dream to work with, and their prices are competitive. They are talented, professional and just SO nice! We first met Buffy at our charm session, which was the first time my husband and I had ever had professional photos taken. She made us feel comfortable and at ease while making us feel like a million bucks - and the photos are incredible. For our wedding day, we had both Buffy and Kristin, and I couldn't have asked for a better team! They were extremely helpful, calm and organized - and again, just so cheery and friendly - they made me feel like the most beautiful person on the planet. We recently got a sneak peek of our wedding photos and have received so many compliments - they are stunning! From start to finish, Lifelong Photography Studio has been a pleasure to work with and I'm so happy we hired them. I cannot recommend them enough! -

Brittany Sent on 03/24/2019Can’t say enough good things!!
Let me start by saying how grateful we are to have found Buffy, Emily and the Lifelong Studio!! We booked them about a year before our wedding date after seeing them at one of the wedding expos and seeing their amazing work! About a week or two after we booked we found out our dog had cancer and was quickly getting sicker. We had already had our first meeting with Buffy and discussed having Rusty, our dog, in our engagement pictures. When we knew time would not allow this I reached out to Lifelong and they were amazing and so understanding! They quickly set up a time and we got some amazing photos with our fur baby that we will treasure forever!! It was during that terrible time that I knew they were the most amazing people!! All of our engagement photos were exactly what we wanted and then some!! Buffy and Emily are both so talented and passionate about what they do and it shows!! On the wedding day they worked so hard to get all our photos and our sneak peaks have been to die for!!! We love them and would recommend them a million times!! -

Buffy at LifeLongStudios will always hold a place in my heart. When my husband and I set our wedding date as 4/14/19 we would have no idea what life would bring. On July 29 2018 my Granddaddy was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer (unexpected). Him and my nana are my neighbors, biggest supporters and my world. His wish was to marry us as soon as he found out. I called Buffy and told her I wanted to move the wedding up to Oct 19 18 she was all for it. She not only calmed me down but cried with me. After many prayers my granddaddy made it through surgery an was re staged at a 1B! but what we didnt know is that my Memaw would shortly pass unexpected. The last family picture we have is at my wedding. Buffy captured her smiling and enjoying life in the last pictures we have of her. I am forever grateful for this company. Everyone was a pleasure to work with. AND her pictures are absolutley AMAZING!! I would LOVE to share them with anyone who wants to see her work. Hands down the BEST photographer Ive ever had to pleasure to see and work with. OH and my engagment pictures are JAW DROPPING! No one can ask for a better team to help you get through/capture the most stressful yet wonderful time in a person life. -

We found LifeLong photography on the internet and chose them due to their amazing reviews. We were not disappointed! Cheryl was great to work with and made the process easy and fun. Our pictures from our engagement shoot came out beautifully and we cannot wait to get the rest of our wedding photos back. I cannot recommend them highly enough!Lifelong Photography Studio's reply:

I can't recommend Lifelong Photography enough!! They did an absolutely amazing job!! We first met Buffy during our engagement session. She made us feel so special and comfortable in front of the camera. Buffy and Jorge were our photographers for the wedding day, and they were incredible!! They were everywhere and didn't miss a thing. We recently got our sneak peak, and I can't wait to see the rest of the photos. Their style is gorgeous - light and natural. They did a great job working with us on our timeline prior to the wedding day. Perfection :) -

Nerina Sent on 01/08/2019Stunning, natural photos with no-stress!
We love Lifelong Photography!!! We hired Buffy to do our engagement and wedding photos. Buffy made us feel so comfortable. She helped guide us through how to stand and where to put our hands and everything felt really natural. I was looking for a very natural, soft, airy feel to my photos and Lifelong was just our style. Buffy was so enthusiastic, patient, and kind. We also did engagement photos with our dog - we didn’t know how he would react, but Buffy was miracle worker and he ended up being the perfect little model for her. On the day of the wedding Buffy was accompanied by Thibaut, our second photographer, who was also excellent. They led us through all the photos with ease and no-stress. Towards the end of the night, she suggested a few other photos I may want before the reception ended, which I thought was so thoughtful; your wedding tends to be such a whirlwind. It’s nice to know someone is keeping a list of the most important moments to capture. Thank you Lifelong Photography!!! -

The best photographer
Wow! If I could describe Lifelong in one word is that their work is STUNNING! I knew from the get go when my now husband and I got engaged that we were going to use Buffy and her team. I saw their work and knew they were the right photographer for us. Not only are they extremely professional, reaponsive and create beautiful photos, but they keep you at ease throughout the entire planning process. They answered all questions that a panicked bride might have and make you feel confident in the day. They were fantastic from the first time we spoke up until the last goodbye at the wedding. Buffy and her team kept the flow of the wedding day right on time and caught breathtaking photos. Thank you Buffy and Lifelong for being the absolute best there is! -

Jess Sent on 06/01/2018I cannot recommend this photography studio enough, especially since they're competitively priced. Our photographer was Buffy, who happens to be the owner of the company. She was absolutely wonderful. From the first meeting, I felt very comfortable talking to her and she even helped us construct our wedding day time line. We had concerns about time constraints for the reception, which Buffy happily accommodated. My husband and I both really enjoyed our engagement "charm" session because Buffy was so much fun to work with, and so encouraging. We were so pleased with those photos too; they came out wonderfully. When it came to the day of the wedding itself, Buffy helped keep our wedding party organized and worked with the venue's event coordinator to ensure that both the ceremony and reception stayed on schedule. Despite the fact that it rained and we needed to move the ceremony at the last minute! She even brought another photographer along, Kristin, who helped us stick to our tight time line. We're still waiting on our final edits for the wedding photos but if the sneak peek photos are any indication, the rest will be stunning. We're so glad that we went with Lifelong! -
Austin Sent on 04/10/2018Jorge from Lifelong photographed our engagement shoot, and every single photo we got back was absolutely amazing! The photos were beautiful, light, airy, and magical. Jorge is so personable and is great at making you feel comfortable in front of the camera and talks you through all the posing. Highly recommend!
