BEST decision we ever made!!
These guys were so great that I just had to write a review on both Google and Wedding Wire!
There are no words to describe how happy we are with Josh and his team and the pictures they took of our wedding on April 1st (yes, April Fool’s Day 😝). A little background history, my friend got married a little over a year before we did and I was a bridesmaid in her wedding. By this time my partner and I had already found a photographer but something just didn’t feel right. Josh was the photographer for my friend’s wedding and I just felt an immediate connection. It wasn’t just the photos - which were stunning btw - but it was also the fact that he made us laugh, he put all of his heart into making the day special, and he helped us to feel comfortable. I turned to my husband, then fiancé, and said “I want him to be the photographer for our wedding. I NEED him to be the photographer at our wedding.” And it was the best decision we ever made. He really got to know us both on a personal level to get a better idea of what we had in mind. He helped make sure that our vision of the perfect wedding became a reality. I’ll just say this: I am probably the least photogenic person you will ever meet. Somehow in all my years of living, I’ve never figured out how to smile naturally. It just looks forced. I mentioned that to him and basically said “good luck getting even one good photo of me”. Well, somehow he achieved the impossible: he made me look good in photos. He gave me lots of great direction and he made jokes throughout the process so that I would feel less nervous/stressed. He would do a little dance to make us all giggle and when I tell you that made all the difference, you can truly take that to heart. I’ve said this once, and I’ll say it a thousand more times, NEVER EVER settle for a subpar photographer. We almost did and we are so very thankful that we went with Josh and his team instead. I know you may be worried about cost but you really do get what you pay for. If you’re on the fence, I’m telling you, take the leap. Like it was with us, it’ll be the best decision you ever make. Edit: forgot to mention he supported us throughout all of our crazy ideas! We are super nerds and we incorporated so many mega-nerd things into our wedding: lightsaber hilts for the bouquets, comic books instead of table numbers, llama wedding toppers, croquembouche instead of cake, and even a Slip N’ Slide exit! He always assured us “hey guys it’s your wedding, you get to do it however you like. Don’t worry about what anyone else thinks. You do you!” WORTH.EVERY.PENNY.

Best. Photographers. Ever. !!!
Limelight was perfect in every way for our wedding. They didn’t feel like strangers (in fact they felt like any other wedding guests/friends!) They know all the angles and captured every photo possible. We are SO HAPPY with the end product and more importantly, with them as people. You never want to feel like “just another bride” or “just another paycheck” to a vendor. This team literally made me feel like we were most important. And the effort they put into our photos/video shows just how much they cared! You will NOT be disappointed with this team.
Our Goal
Amazing PHOTOS & VIDEO YOU LOVE! Today, tomorrow, and forever! Our style Is genuine and timeless. We love what we do! Technical mastery, combined with service, empathy, and leadership, produces photos and videos that will impact your life and the lives of those closest to you. The greatest story ever told is yours!
Start to Finish Engagement
We provide you with unlimited coverage for our two packages. This means that we will start 3 hours before the ceremony and stay until send-off. We arrive early for all the excitement and anticipation and we stay late for the complete story. Our team starts as energetic and excited as we started the day. No watching the clock, rushing, or worrying that something will be missed. You are free to enjoy your day on your time. This is important and has been a mainstay of Limelight since we started our company in 2007.

great service!
Limelight has been absolutely the best group I have hired! They were amazing with our engagement photos and I could only imagine how our wedding photos are going to look. I did get a sneak peek and what I have seen have been breathtaking. They were all so professional but made the picture-taking fun! Their team went to work the minute they arrived on site and continued to work all night! I would definitely rebook with them any day! You will not be disappointed when choosing limelight to capture your special day! I did get videography and photography for my wedding.

Best decision we ever made!
Working with the entire Limelight staff was an indescribable experience from Day 1. We met with Jose via zoom and he was extremely personable. He genuinely wanted to know mine and my husband’s story and what our hopes for our wedding photographer would be. He guided us through the packages available and helped us pick the best suitable for us.
Angel and Kelly were the team that did my Bridal portraits and I’ve never felt so beautiful taking pictures before. Angel made me laugh the entire time and made the whole experience so much fun. His positive affirmations gave me the confidence I didn’t know I had and it truly showed in my photos. Jose went through my bridal portrait reveal with my parents and I…I was speechless. I can’t put into words how beautiful my photos turned out and how much I loved them. Jose again, was genuinely interested in why I was so emotional and speechless. The environment was perfectly set with a private showing room, cold beverages and snacks. Our wedding day team was Mark on photography, Nate and Alex on video, and their respective assistants. When we tell you we can’t say enough good…we literally can’t. Say. Enough. Good. Every time my husband or myself turned to talk to someone at our wedding, there was always a comment about how great the photographers were or how awesome the video guys were. Nate and Alex saw me struggling and offered me a rechargeable fan to carry throughout the night because of how much I was sweating lol. They recharged it for me during dances/us being center dance floor and made sure I was able to stay cool for the evening. We can’t be any more excited about how our photos and video will turn out. Limelight team and staff as a whole deserve 20/10 stars! Highly highly highly recommend them! You won’t be disappointed! (We almost hope for another big event in the SA area to hire them again lol)
