    Fast, detailed and quality

    We could not have asked for better service and professionalism. I was amazed at their ability to improvise even with inclement weather before our ceremony. Highly recommend.

    John from Senses at Play Photography is awesome!

    He took my vision and style and turned my special day into unforgettable memories. The promptness of the preview photos was truly impressive, and I can't wait to see the rest.

    What sets John apart is his remarkable ability to capture moments with grace and professionalism. During the event, he worked so seamlessly that we hardly noticed his presence, which is the mark of a true expert. If you want your special moments to be beautifully memorialized, look no further than John and Senses at Play Photography. I couldn't be happier with the results!

    Best Photography you can get!

    I don't have words to describe how amazing John and Senses At Play Photography are. I did not have a wedding planner and he made my life so easy it seemed as if I had one. John made it easy to set up a schedule, make arrangements at different locations, and to include everyone's input. John was also nice, professional, and flexible which is perfect for a stressful day. The quality of the photographs are amazing and I greatly appreciate his quick turnaround so that we could relive our amazing wedding day! Thank you again John, you made our special day extra special!!

    Perfect wedding photos

    John photographed our wedding perfectly! There wasn't a detail that went unnoticed. I love that I get to relive this day over and over again through the amazing photos he was able to capture. He didn't even bat an eye when I asked him if we could run down Duval street with our crew and get some fun pics! If you are looking for someone who puts passion into their work look no further than Senses at Play, John truly loves what he does and that shows in his work! The turn around time was faster than expected and he gives you tons of photo choices to download as well as the option to order prints through them! Thank you so much for giving me beautiful pictures to look at forever!

    Couldn't be happier

    We wanted to share how happy and thankful we are for everything.
    Where do we begin? You were an absolute dream to work with. Sunday October 16th was everything we could have dreamed of and more. We were living on cloud 9 days after. So many guests had such wonderful things to say. Everything was seamless and perfectly executed with many thanks to you.

    The photos came out amazing and we could not be happier with the final product. Everyone raved about how great of a photographer you are and how patient you are when everyone is coming to you with a million requests. We are so excited to share these photos and have them printed for our home.

    Thank you for taking our dream photos and making them a reality and beyond. We couldn’t have asked for anything better.

    Sharing our many many thanks as we continue to dream about our wedding day.

    Thank You!

    Beautiful Photos from our Dream Day!

    We used Senses at Play for our wedding photographer and we are SO thrilled with how the photos turned out. John is awesome and you can tell how much he truly loves his job. He has fun with it and he helped us have fun with it too!
    The best part of the whole day was without a doubt, taking the "fun photos" around Key West. We rode around with John, and not only was it so much fun, but he was also like a personalized tour guide! We saw some beautiful parts of the city and they also turned out to be my favorite photos from the wedding.

    We are so excited to print out our favorites and hang them all over our home. They are so special and beautiful. Thank you so much John!

    John and staff was exceptional with taking our vision and making our wedding exactly what we dreamed of. From the first day we had great help planning and it helped tremendously with bringing down the stress of destination planning immensely.

    Beautiful Photos!

    John with Senses at Play captured our wedding so beautifully! He was so fun and easy to work with and was very focused on what we wanted for our group photos etc. The sunset photos he captured were our favorite! I couldn’t recommend Senses at Play enough!

    Great photos!

    Mr. McCall was punctual, professional, and appeared to have worked with the staff and venue many times before. He made it look so easy (even though I know it’s not). The pictures are amazing! My husband and I are very happy with the pictures!

    Seamlessly Amazing and can we say sneak peaks!!!

    What amazing business owners! This husband and wife team are great at what they do! John was the photographer for our wedding on June 26th 2020. He captured everything I was hoping for and more! Such a natural at making everyone comfortable in front of the camera. I have two children who never have been fans of having their pictures taken and he even managed to get smiles out of them! Everything from "traditional family photos" to "Bloopers" and everything in between. The quality, quantity and turn-a-round on receiving our pictures back was truly amazing! The next time I have professional pictures taken I will 100% be making the trip to have them done with John and Bernadette! P.S. they posted sneak peak pics of the wedding within 24 hours of the event!!! Say What? that was AWESOME!

    Best decision for photographer!

    Perfect experience from the first contact with Senses At Play. Through email I could tell John was a fun energetic person to work with! Planning a destination wedding without being able to meet anyone beforehand or visit our ceremony and reception site seems like it would be stressful, but not with John! He was professional and gave me a level of comfort where I felt like "this is all taken care of" and I was right! He really knows what he is doing, and throughout the entire day he was an absolute joy to work with. Because of him I have some of the most beautiful moments captured from my wedding day.

    John and Bernadette are wonderful!

    John and Bernadette McCall were the first ones I wanted to contact after I got engaged. I have personally worked with both of them while catering events in Key West and I have seen their amazing skills and professionalism. Not only that but they were always so positive and friendly!
    I was thinking…now I will be the bride so I was not sure how things are going to go. But it was all perfect!
    Communication with them was wonderful . Bernadette answered all of our questions and she made suggestions for us. John was our photographer and we arranged a meeting with them in their amazing studio to talk about all details before the wedding.
    3 weeks before the wedding I injured my knee and had to contact all vendors to figure out a plan ..since I had to be bride on crutches. That was not an issue at all and we had to changed few things to accommodate my situation. John just always seemed to be in the right place at the right time to catch all the action and candid photos that will serve as lifetime memories for us.
    He was so kind and helpful throughout the entire process and his skill and passion were clearly visible in his work. He made us genuinely smile and knew exactly how to work with our large wedding party (7 bridesmaids and 7 groomsman ) and bride that is on crutches. ….in the most graceful way.:) Not surprisingly, our pictures turned out beyond beyond perfect. It couldn't have been a better experience.
    Not to mention that few day after the wedding they had an album with selection of pictures for us that we were able to share and enjoy while we still had some of our wedding guest from out of town.
    Thank you John and Bernadette for capturing the best moment in our life .

    Bernadette did an excellent job as our wedding planner and photographer for our small wedding just recently on May 20th. I was so relaxed about the whole process because I just knew she had it all under control! And so far the sneak peek photos have been amazing and truly captured the feel of our wedding day. I am so excited to see the rest! She was so focused on her work as a photographer and knew exactly what shots to get, I didn't have to worry about her missing a thing! My only request was to get a picture at the crowded Pier House beach by a certain palm tree, but wasn't sure how it would turn out as there were people sitting in chairs on the beach right nearby and floats too. She moved all the floats and had the beachgoers move a bit so we could get the shot I wanted, and it turned out perfect! I was so grateful to have her by my side for my destination wedding!

    We used Family Affairs package for our photography, videography and DJ services at our Key West destination wedding in April, 2017. From the very beginning, we were well taken care of. During our initial phone call, Joann spent nearly 2 hours explaining our options and answering our questions. Bernadette was our point person during the wedding-planning process. She was Great and made things as stress free as possible. She also created a detailed timeline of events for our wedding days, which we distributed to other vendors to help make sure our big day went as smoothly as possible.

    Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and stress free. Iris, our photographer from Senses at Play was amazing!! She was very calm and professional, which goes a long way in such a high energy situation. She had great ideas, made sure everyone was standing and looking exactly where they needed to catch the best expressions. Her results were also amazing- we could not be happier with our photos! Our videographer Christina was also from Senses at Play and was very wonderful as well. She was always where she needed to be to catch all the special moments that day but very discrete. Our highlights video was beautiful and our full length video captured everything. We are so happy we decided to include videography in our package. Our DJ, Aaron Moore from Sound Wave was also top notch. He played great music the entire reception, and me, my husband and nearly everyone of our guests were dancing from start to finish. Even my grandpa was on the dance floor all night! 15 minutes before the reception ended, Aaron made sure to track me (the bride) down so I could pick our last couple songs, which I really appreciated.

    Overall, I highly recommend The Family Affairs package, especially when planning a destination wedding out of state. I could not be more happy with how perfect our wedding day was and the amazing photos and videos we have to remember it!

    John and Bernadette were great! We found them through our DJ, who happens to be their brother and sister-in-law, and we got a package that included DJ, Videography, and Photography-- it was awesome! We met Bernadette in October to do Engagement photos around Key West and loved them, and our wedding photos turned out even better! The photos are beautiful, and captured all of the important, serious, touching, funny, and even silly moments of the day and night. It was great to have both John and Bernadette, because they were able to capture shots from multiple angles, which gave us different views that we wouldn't have even considered. We would definitely recommend them to brides looking for photographers in the Keys!
