Overall I think Essence did a great job. Our photographer was great not only behind the camera, but also in front of it. He did a great job of keeping a light fun mood and getting great pics. Our wedding video also turned out good. Most of my friends and family didn't even see our videographer. She did a great job of staying in the background yet captured everything. We have yet to get our photo album back yet (we ordered it late) but I am sure it will be great. Plus, we get the ALL negatives to our pictures 1 year from our wedding date. I love that!
