Karthic was awesome. He showed up on the day of the wedding and got right to work no questions asked and not a second wasted. He didnt spend the day forcing us into entire poses he just took photos organically and gave slight direction which I love. The photo quality was amazing and not too over edited and sharp which is exactly what I was looking for, they had a really nice soft and natural feel to them. Would 10/10 hire Karthic again to do it all over the same way. My Maid of Honor even left a review here for him as well!

Planning a wedding is hard, stressful, and often times overwhelming. Working with Karthic is the opposite of those adjectives. Karthic is responsive, organized, patient, easy to work with, and informative. I have already recommended them to two family members who are getting married next year. Our photographers were more than we could have ever asked for. I've only seen sneak peeks so far, but I'm already obsessed. My family, friends, and I have been swooning over these, and we cannot wait to see the full gallery. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. You far exceeded my expectations.

I had a really great experience with Pretty Portrait Studio at my wedding last month. Karthic was wonderful to work with, were really enthusiastic, and seemed to always be there at the right place at the right time to capture the important moments. He put in a lot of time ahead of the wedding getting to know my fiancee and me and to understand what we were looking for. He absolutely wowed us with the photos.
