Lindsay & Matt | 3.1.14 Mission San Luis Tallahassee, FL

I wish I could clone the beautiful day we had for Lindsay and Matt’s wedding!  It really felt like spring was here to stay, even though we’re back with rain and cold for the moment.  So hopefully this blog post will help you remember the warmth and sunshine we had a few weeks ago!

Lindsay is in a big beautiful family that we have had the privilege of working with several times now.  They told us we are “in the family” now, which makes me so happy to think we won’t stop working with them!  (maybe one day we’ll know all of the guests!  At this wedding we knew quite a few already.)  Their wedding was also our first experience at Mission San Luis – of which we’ll have 2 more by June!  It’s an incredibly beautiful property – I’m ashamed that it was so close to our house and we had no idea how beautiful it was.  There was a crew of incredible vendors to make this day beautiful too!  Enjoy!

The BEST investment I made for our wedding day was definitely booking Kylene and Ryan Studios! It was such a blessing to have you both there to capture all of the PERFECT moments of that day. You all made us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the lens and all around were pleasant to be around.

Jordan

Kylene and Ryan are the worlds best photographers! Not only did I love every picture they took but they also were great to work with. I am not the greatest when it comes to taking pictures and knowing what I might like but they knew exactly what I wanted even when I didn’t. I would highly recommend them for every event.

Ellen

They were the absolute best! So friendly, so fun and professional. The photos were amazing and they took the time to get some of the more ridiculous shots I requested. BONUS: they were amazing with our nephew. He is autistic. He was our ring-bearer and was having a difficult day, which isn’t unexpected for a day like that. Could not recommend enough.

Nora

Hands down, I would recommend Kylene & Ryan to anyone in a heartbeat. We used them for our engagement photos, a boudoir shoot for me, and our wedding photography. Every single time we saw their work, we were blown away. What first drew us to them was their beautiful work–but what also hooked us was how incredibly fun, sweet, professional, and hard-working they are.

Jenna

Wow, what an incredible experience! It was such a joy working with this team. They had us laughing and enjoying every minute of our special day. And the pictures are STUNNING! They really went above and beyond to create unique and memorable moments we will cherish always.
