Rudy and Lina set the tone of warmth, fun, energy, and ease for our wedding. They are such a great duo that makes you feel right at home from the minute they meet you. Their pictures are absolutely incredible, and we are overwhelmed with the amount of stunners that they edited for us. You will not regret hiring them. The service that they provide is unmatched for the price that they charge. We feel very lucky that we found these two. Not only did they produce unique pictures (both wide and normal angle lens) that we were able to gift for the holidays, but they also made our wedding day so relaxed and enjoyable. Thank you for all of your care, Rudy and Lina, and we know that you will continue to be an amazing success! -

It's difficult to convey into words how amazing, talented, attentive, hard-working, fun, and overall fantastic Rudy and Lina are! From the first time we met with Lina to talk through packages and other information about who they are, Lina instantly felt like a friend we had not talked to in a long time and clicked. My wife and I felt this was important because we had never had someone take professional photos of us, and wanted to be with a team we felt comfortable with. Once we met Rudy, we felt the same way, and knew that we had to hire them to be a part of our big day.
We went with a package that included an engagement shoot, and the day of, not only did both of them direct us really well to capture stunning photos, but also helped us feel at ease, as we started off a bit nervous being in front of the camera. They like to crack a few jokes throughout and be their outgoing selves, which speaks greatly of how outgoing they are personally, but also of how important it is to them that their couples engage with them and truly have everyone work together as a team to produce these pictures. Needless to say, the engagement pictures came out awesome, and had plenty of people we showed feel the same way!
Due to COVID-19, my wife and I had to reschedule a couple of times, and Rudy and Lina were extremely flexible, and offered everything they could to still be a part of our day, even when it seemed like it might not happen. Luckily for us, they both were available for the last reschedule, and the weeks and days leading to the wedding, Lina was encouraging and very professional in terms of getting all the details and timeline down.
The day of, they both arrived early and ready to go. They showed our bridal party the same attention and care that they showed us, and easily blended in to the group. Everyone had nothing but positive things to say about them, including how cool, fun, and easygoing they were throughout the day. The entire time, Lina made sure all the small details were taken care of, and helped keep everything going smoothly, which we greatly appreciated, as that was going above and beyond what a photographer does normally. We got a chance to see previews of some of the shots being taken that day, and even looking at them from the small screen of the camera, we could tell they are going to be awesome memories for us! Rudy even put his body on the line for one picture where I was being launched into the air and caught by my groomsmen, and the perspective of the shot was from ground facing up at my face. Crazy, but amazing stuff, and it was his idea!
Our wedding would not have been the same without Rudy and Lina, plan and simple. They are a truly an amazing duo that we are grateful to have met and have a part of our day. The memories that they helped capture and the way they did it is unforgettable, and I cannot wait to relive the day through their lense. We cannot wait to work with them again in the future, and highly recommend them! -

Rudy Valentino has an amazing talent to capture the most emotional details that will turn into precious moments one can keep and appreciate for years and years. I had the opportunity to meet Rudy and his wife, Lina at Stan Mansion. We worked together for several events and I can only say that these people are amazing and so sweet. Rudy Valentino is one of the most recommended photographer at Stan Mansion and for a good reason.
If you are looking for a unique photographer that is going to read your mind and reflect all your feelings through pictures - you have to book Rudy Valentino! -

Lina and Rudy are absolutely amazing. We had them shoot our engagement, rehearsal dinner, wedding as well as trash the dress. In addition to providing amazing pictures and videos they take care of you every step of the way in any way the can. They are passionate about their job and really care about you. We recommend them without a doubt. -

Molly Sent on 09/18/2019Hi, yes, book them!
Booking Lina and Rudy was a no-brainer. They are worth every penny (and then some). We first met them at Stan Mansion's open house and after talking with them for 30 seconds, Lina was already offering to have a night-in with my mom to help put things together for the wedding. My husband was adamant about hiring a husband/wife team for photography and I am so happy we went that route. A couple weeks before while we were planning where to take pics and such, we caught glimpse of a video they did for another couple. Needless to say, we booked video that night too.
We suggested taking our pics in the cemetery to really enhance our Tim Burton theme. Lina was game from the second I called her. Not only was she 8 months pregnant fluffing my gown, she was making sure everything was absolutely perfect. We ended up riding around on the trolley a bit longer than expected (sorry Rudy!!) but thankfully there was so much fun footage they used to make the video an amazing reflection of our group. The videographers were so much fun to work with and the video turned out absolutely gorgeous. We felt like we were in a music video, it was so much fun. Nothing felt forced, awkward, or unnatural. We were fortunate enough to find a couple we vibed with and it's safe to say they helped make our big day amazing, memorable, fun, and worry-free. The entire team goes above and beyond to make sure it really is the best day. You can't buy experience at weddings but Rudy and Lina can most definitely capture it.
