What can I say about Mango and experience I had...

Weddings are one of those important, life-altering, pinnacle events that you expect to be 100% hectic and challenging, and 100% magical. For me, it was both. Yes, I felt like the day went by in a blur, and there were a few hiccups along the way in other vendors... But confidently I can say that my experience with Mango studios was such an enjoyable, stress-free process that I truly wish they had more than just photography to offer!

First off, Melissa. Melissa has a calming personality. While I can be an emotional mess (super excited or super sad or super mad), she was like a calm pond. Even if she was concerned about timing, or pictures, or travelling, she never showed it. Melissa was both incredibly kind and warm and caring, but professional. She found last minute photography areas that we could use as our "creative shots" when I informed her that my plans had to be changed. Without being too bossy, she helped my husband and I get the perfect angle to capture the shot. She told us "be natural, be in love, and I will guide you" and that's what she did. No squished noses for us or double chins (haha). Beyond this, her talent is incredible. I am humbled each time I look at both our engagement pictures and wedding pictures because I could never be able to create something so beautiful. There is an artistry that cannot be taught in photography, and Melissa breathes it.

For the studio itself, Mango. Dealing with Mango was as easy as breathing. Frances, who I dealt with for scheduling, payments and every day concerns, would get back to my emails almost immediately. For a panicked bride, this is very important. The friendliness of the studio, professionalism of its staff, and simple kindness in their demeanor to us left my husband and I feeling happy after our visits. Their open concept studio mirrors their culture. I truly found that they are open to new ideas, accepting of challenges and ready to find solutions, and warm and welcoming in all our exchanges. The staff there who edited my pictures, and created the perfect contrast of the Black and White shots are incredible and I only wish that I could have thanked them more in person.

Overall I urge ANY brides and grooms, or newly engaged couples, or families, to choose Mango. Don't even bother looking at other studios. They will be the BEST choice you ever make, and you will NOT regret it. If you are newly engaged, make sure you add on the engagement session. Its such a great way to meet your photographers earlier before the big day so you can get to know one another, and more importantly, they can check you out too. Find out more about you so they can add personalization to your photography story. Trust me on this. Pick Mango. They are a TOP LEADING studio in Toronto for a reason. I'm writing this entire review because I truly believe in them. And at the end of the day, you'll get photos that make you understand that they believe in you too.

Cheers,
Jessica
