Hi Guys,
We used Regency Studios for our photos and video for our wedding that was now over a month ago. I found them very expensive and difficult to work with, their finished product was decent but not worth the headache.
The finished product was decent. The photos were a little too traditional, posed and dry for my taste but to be fair they are good shots if that is what you are going for. The video's effects are very dated but the footage was good. Both videographer and photographer were easy to work with on the day of the wedding and kind.
The problem I've had is with Margaret, she is the person you will deal with from beginning to end. She is very pushy and patronizing. I like to think of myself as a fair and reasonable person, but she really pushed my buttons and continues to do so. I'm still dealing with them and still frustrated. Although they have been paid in FULL, they refuse to give me my disc of images until my album is finished and printed. The way I see it, we paid you, the wedding is over, you have the pictures, why do I need to wait for the production of my photo album to be completed (which takes months by the way) before you will give me my pictures that I've already paid you for. I still haven't gotten an answer to this after many emails and phone calls. She answers questions she wants to answer and ignores questions she doesn't want to answer.
Many of my vendors were a dream, such as VIP Country Club, Jon Bates Band, Color Makeup Studio, but Regency Studios, happened to be on of those that just added and continues to add more stress and aggravation than necessary, not to mention over-priced. Just some thoughts for you to consider when choosing a photographer. If I had to do it over, I would have gone with someone else.
