“First, I think it's important to be transparent when posting reviews. I am reviewing Scarlet Oak Studio in exchange for my music license to be covered for my wedding video. That being said, everything I am writing are my genuine thoughts. They did not stipulate that it had to be a positive review.
I love my pictures from my wedding day! I think that Scarlet Oak truly knows what they are doing and work so hard to make sure everything looks great, and everyone feels good. The team I worked with the day of my wedding were amazing and I would work with them over and over. I often don't like myself in pictures and I love every single one!
My video is my favorite thing ever. They really captured the day, and it was so fun to relive my wedding and reception by watching it back. I cannot say enough good things about it!! It was longer than I expected, and I loved all the editing that went into it. If you are on the fence about having them do your wedding video, I would go for it. You will not regret it and at the end of the day you won't remember the money.
Speaking of money, I believe that you get what you pay for, which is why they are on the more expensive end. Of all the companies we compared, they were the most expensive. We did feel like they pushed us a little towards the more expensive options. They were so gracious in offering us a friends/family discount due to us knowing a photographer from the company, but the discount was supposed to be for a free hour, and when we wanted to do the extended (10 hour) day, they instead said they would throw in drone footage. We would have preferred the free hour and felt like it was not what was initially promised and neither of us was very impressed with the drone footage. That's really the only negative thing that I can come up with though.
They definitely deserve 5 stars for their photographers, videographers, and assistants, as well as the quality of their final product. The only downside is the expense, but again you get what you pay for. I would highly recommend them!”
