“He Put My Husband And I Completely At Ease”
“Every single photo was chosen with purpose and love. Our wedding was a whirlwind because our original outdoor ceremony was forced inside by a rainstorm, but Francis wasn’t fazed. He seamlessly transitioned us inside and the photos were stunning. He captured every laugh, every tear…every beautiful moment of that day.
I think for us, the best part about having him as our photographer was that he put my husband and I completely at ease. We are in no way comfortable in front of the camera, but with him it was easy and so natural. He was able to capture sincere smiles and the real belly laughs throughout our day. Photos are meant to be kept as reminders, Francis’s photography has the uncanny ability to pull you back into each memory, as if reliving it another time. That is magical. That is art. That can only be done by someone that is not just a photographer, but someone who cares so deeply about his work and the people he offers his services to.”“He Made Us Feel Comfortable Right From The Start”
“Francis was an absolute dream to work with! He made us feel comfortable right from the start, gave amazing suggestions where needed, his portal was a massive help for our planning and kept everything organized, and we couldn’t possibly be any happier with the deliverables. THANK YOU for capturing our special day in Iceland so perfectly!
We can’t recommend his services enough for elopement photography and videography.”“This Is A Review… Sorry, A Glowing Review”
“This is a review… sorry, a glowing review of our wedding photographer, Francis Sylvest. We could sense the quality and craft he would bring to our photos during our first interview with him. He gave us confidence that he would not only capture the photos we wanted, but with a quality that would marvel us many years from now. His communication and response times going forward were quick and understandable.
To say that he met our expectations, would fail to capture the praise and thanks due Francis. As we reviewed the photos from our most wonderful day, we were stunned. The scenes are expertly framed and the light and color, pristine. They are sooooo good. And the photos are ours, forever.”He Was Easy To Talk To, Quick To Respond And Professional”
“Francis did a brilliant job photographing our 100-person wedding at a ranch in Salida, Colorado. We wanted our photos to reflect the beauty of the area, and he captured the surroundings and our desired laid-back vibe. From the beginning, he was easy to talk to, quick to respond and professional. We didn’t meet in person before our wedding, but we spoke on the phone several times and he was able to answer my questions and help me get a better idea of his work style.
I wanted everyone in photos to look and feel relaxed on our big day, and he did an excellent job capturing candid shots. He was also flexible when we changed our plans about where to photograph at the venue, and made sure that groups of people on my checklist, such as family and wedding party members, were all photographed. I’d highly recommend him!”“You Can Tell That He Really Cares About You As A Client”
“I can’t recommend Francis enough! My husband and I got lucky last year and found Francis while browsing the internet. From the first contact we had a good feeling about him because he’s very professional and you can tell that he really cares about you as a client.
We knew we wanted to get married in Colorado but had no idea where to even start and he helped us put together the perfect plan for our intimate wedding day and gave us a bunch of recommendations for local vendors in the Boulder area which was incredibly helpful given we’re from out of state. Most importantly, his work is amazing!! We absolutely loved our pictures and film. If you’re looking for someone talented and experienced to capture your special day, he’s your guy!”
