Reviews for Carrie Wildes Photography




Carrie took our engagement pictures! We arranged a consultation, and we loved her and hoped that she could take our engagement pictures! We really liked Carrie because she encouraged us to show love and happiness in the pictures, and it was so nice being able to act 'lovey-dovey' in front of a camera in not a cheesy way. It's hard to explain, but I really think Carrie brought out the best in us in the way she posed us and suggestions she made. We made arrangements to have two on-site engagement photo shoots, which cost more but was well worth it. We had lovely engagement pictures to choose between. We have kept her card and information and have recommended her to other brides-to-be and couples.

Carrie has such an eye for creative photography. When we first met, I told her I really am not the "posey" bride and that I like natural, beautiful pics. Well, she nailed it! It doesn't even feel as if she is there, she captures the most random yet beautiful photographs I have ever seen. Also, if you do have certain pics you would like to have, not only does she get the shots, but she does a beautiful job. We will definitely have more photos sessions with her in the future...like our babies!
GUEST




I cannot even begin to explain how amazing Carrie Wildes is! I researched a lot of photographers before my wedding and I knew that I wanted Carrie from the first time I saw her pictures- they are absolutely gorgeous and exactly the style of photography that I wanted for my wedding pictures. Once I had my phone consultation with her, I made the decision to hire her. She’s so sweet and you can tell just from talking to her that she truly loves what she does. We did an engagement shoot with her and she was so easy to work with. The engagement photos came out great! Carrie was great about getting back to me whenever I emailed her with questions, no matter how many times I emailed her. And the best part is that my wedding pictures were absolutely beautiful! I could not have asked for anyone better. Throughout the wedding, Carrie and her assistant were professional, unobtrusive, and friendly. They didn’t miss anything and the pictures were exactly what I wanted! I highly recommend Carrie and am so glad that I chose her!

GUEST




Carrie and her team are beyond amazing!! They are extremely quick to respond so easy to get along with! They make sure that you are 100% happy and satisfied before they call a job complete. I felt like they were not just photographers, but an essential and integral part of our day. Choosing a photographer is a BIG part of wedding planning- with so many to choose from and so much riding on the results, it can be overwhelming! I am so thrilled I chose such a talented group to document such a special event in our lives!
GUEST




Carrie and her staff were amazing! I had three photographers present at my wedding and they took some incredible photos. They showed up on time, dressed properly, were part of the fun, and even set up a photo display at the reception. Carrie was one of my best vendors of the entire event!
GUEST




Carrie and her crew are so personable and professional. It was like having one of our family members take our pictures at our wedding. The work is exquisite and timely. There are options for every budget. She is so flexible and just an all around good person. She will be our photographer of choice for our future needs.

Carrie sees your vision for what you want your day to look like, and is open and understanding to your special needs. Carrie shot the reherrsel dinner, Sylense and Michael shot the day of. When the pictures arrived, it just confirmed that the perfect photography team was used. Highly recommend and will use in the future, Carrie Wildes photography!! :)
GUEST




Carrie and her team are absolutely wonderful! Carrie is so easy to work with and was so excited about all of the details of our wedding (we did some unusual things). Our wedding was photographed by Sylense and Catalina, both of whom were wonderful as well. We got so many compliments on them after the wedding, because they were literally everywhere making sure that we had photos of everything that happened that day. The photos themselves are amazing, and we are so happy with them! I can't recommend them highly enough, they are worth every penny!
GUEST




LOVE LOVE LOVE CARRIE!!!! She is truly talented and I can not tell you how many compliments we have gotten about our photos. She was worth every dime and now I will have these amazing pictures to always look back on. I highly reccomend her and promise you, you will not be disappointed! Just wonderful!!!!
GUEST




Carrie was worth every dime. Out of all our vendors, she was most laid back and easy to work with, while being extremely personable as well as professional. I can not say enough about her personality- she is wonderful! She is also a rockstar- anytime I would tell people who our photographer was, I would get "oohs" and "ahhs", which I believe speaks highly of her work. Our engagement session and "sneaks" have been amazing. She was also super flexible, and she did our engagement session 7 months after booking her and only 2 months before our wedding! We also brought our dog which she worked so well with. She really got some beautiful shots, and since we are the most un-model like people, we couldn't pose if we tried, speaks volumes for her. We interviewed alot of photographers and I can't be happier we chose her. These pictures will be wonderful to look at for years to come.
GUEST




We have not received the pictures yet, but I am very pleased with all of the different shots that Linda was taking for us. I know that they are going to turn out fantastic! Linda Agosto is the one who shot our actual pictures and she was great! She was very sweet, flexible, quick, and creative. In a crunch she was also very helpful! I did not have the best wedding coordinators at my venue, so I was left in the room to dress myself with my hairstylist and Linda... Linda actually stepped up and started to help get me into my gown. :-) Very helpful and truly unforgettable, she will now hold a special place in my heart for being there on our special day and stepping in when the going gets rough! :-) The only shots that we missed out on were my sister and maid of honor helping me get dressed and posses of me standing in my dress, say in front of a window-style, but that was the venue and the coordinator's fault. I'm just soooo glad that Linda was there to help keep me calm and to take the best pictures ever! I can't wait to see them!With Love, Amber Logan-Carlson!! :-)
GUEST




Carrie Wildes Photography has a unique sense of capturing the beauty and personality of the moment. Carrie recently shot our wedding traveling from Tampa to Wisconsin. She sought out interesting and fun locations for photos that turned out better than we could have ever imagined. Her passion for photography, fun-loving spirit, and professionalism make her the absolute best choice for a wedding photographer!
GUEST




Carrie's pictures are imaginative and beautiful. The photos are actually more lovely than I thought they could be. She is also prompt and wonderful to work with.I highly recommend her!
GUEST




Carrie is outstanding! It actually comes down to more than just the photos. Our package came with an engagement session. Following that session, our photos were available online for our friends & family to look at & purchase. Those same photos were scrolling on a computer screen at our wedding. What fun for all of the guests to look at. About midway through the reception, some of our wedding photos were scrolling on the same computer screen! She had also printed out one special photo to pass out to the guests with the website printed on it so that they could access the photos when they were ready. She also gave me a sampler album that night to take on my honeymoon!! It was a pleasure to work with Carrie!
GUEST




Carrie,You are the absolute best! We've seen the sneak peaks and can't wait for the rest! You go above and beyond and Sylense is great, too! As the Mother-of-the-Bride and fellow vendor, we will be referring you like crazy! Thank you, thank you, thank you!Tina~Festivities~
GUEST




Greg and I loved everything that we received in our package and then some. Our pictures were fabulous and gorgeous. Carrie takes the best photos, and I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for great memories for your wedding as well as any event. All of my guests just loved the LCD monitor that was set up fpor them to see our engagement photos at the beginning of the reception and then everyone crowded around to see some of the snap shots she had been taking throughout the ceremony and reception. The price was great and she has so many great ideas as well as artistic ability. We trusted her ability to capture everything, and she did that and more! Highly recommended!!! Thanks for everything Carrie!!!!!!Love Amy and Greg Lawrence
GUEST




Carrie was amazingly perfect and wonderful!! She honestly was my favorite vendor that I had chosen!! She is so sweet, laid back, fun, creative, and obviously her shots are impeccable!! I really couldn't say enough good things about her!! She has done some of the best work I've ever seen and her personality is perfect for any couple getting married! I would recommend her to absolutely anyone! She was really amazing!

GUEST




Carrie is the best when it comes to photography! From our first communication to the last, she has been quick to respond, thorough with her answers, and a pleasure to work with. Her creativity is top-notch. She is definitely one-of-a-kind and I'd recommend her to anyone!
GUEST




Our wedding photos are amazing. Carrie and her assistant managed to capture our day beautifully, and everytime I look at the images, it brings back such great memories! She's very professional, personable and very passionate about what she does. She also mixed all of the photography styles that I love, for a nice diverse range of images. Overall, very pleased with her services and would definitely recommend her!
GUEST




My husband and I were extremely happy with Carrie Wildes Photography. After meeting with Carriea and reviewing her work it was clear that she has a passion for photography and she has the personality to work with people. We immediately felt like we had know Carrie for years upon doing our engagement pictures. She was flexible with location and time of the engagment shoots. On the wedding day she mangaged to capture all of the emotion of the occassion and even had pictures from the ceremony on a slideshow for the reception, talk about working hard. We felt like every penny we spent was well worth it, we couldn't not have been happier with her work! Thanks Carrie
GUEST




Carrie was an absolute pleasure to work with. Carrie took beautiful photos of all of the elements of our wedding day with creativity and artistic beauty. The photos really capture the emotions of the day. She interacted very well with everyone, including family, guests and other vendors. Not only is she a great, talented photographer, but she is also a true professional. She was always very responsive to my requests and kept the communication open. I highly recommend her!!!
GUEST




BEST PHOTOGRAPHER EVER!!! I absolutely LOVE Carrie! She is so talented and so amazing, that I can't even give her enough praise. She made my whole experience so much better! I want to use her for everything. She surpassed my hopes for her and I was thrilled to see the pictures!! EVERYONE at my wedding was commenting on her and everyone is awaiting when the pictures are available for purchase. My husband and I are not the normal "wedding picture" couple. We are very artistic and like things that are "different", which made the photographer-hunting very difficult at first. It was love at first site (of her pictures of course). Everyone should use her!
GUEST




Working with Carrie Wildes Photography was an abosolute pleasure. She worked with out specific wants and we ended up with beautiful,one of a kind, natual photographs. The price she gave us included the engagement photos and an 8 hour block of photo time on the wedding day. She was with me all the way from the hair salon in the morning, to the reception in the afternoon. Also, we had a special request for a slide show of baby pictures and such to be shown at the reception. She also did a great job with that. At the reception she had a slide show of pictures that she took at the ceremony. I would recomend her to any one of my friends, family, or co-workers!
GUEST




Carrie Wildes is, in my opinion, the most talented wedding photographer in the Tampa Bay area. She got to know us and our style by having an engagement sitting beforehand. She is fun, creative, and knows how to interact with her "subjects" without being obtrusive or pushy. She gets the right photos, and is unbelievably artistic in how she takes her shots. If you are looking for a photojournalistic photographer, she's the "it" girl!
Vendor response to review
Yay!! Thanks so much for the kind words Corinne!!
GUEST




I am absolutely amazed at the beautiful work by Carrie Wildes. She and her assistant took pictures at every possible angle of every part of my daughter's wedding. She even had a flat screen tv for the guests to view as the pictures were taken as well as sample post cards of the engagement shots that were for the wedding guests to take home. She had small portion of the pictures on her website only days after the event. They were all beautiful. She is truly in the right career. I recommend her highly to everyone for any event. You won't be disappointed.

Hi Sue,Thank you so much for the great review!!
GUEST




My wedding was in the fall of 2007. My photographer Carrie Wildes had to move to Florida before our wedding date arrived. She was wonderful at keeping contact with us before, during, and after our wedding. She flew in to be here for our wedding. She was professional and organized with all aspects of the photography service. She captured every moment of our special day. You always dream at how your wedding pictures will turn out and when we recieved our pictures and photo album, they were even more beautiful then I could have asked for. It is so busy during the day and night that it seems that everything flies by but I have these wonderful pictures to remind me for the rest of my life. I continue to tell people about her even though she is miles away. She is excellent!!!
GUEST




My husband and I were more than amazed by the quality and breadth of our wedding photos! Carrie captured both candid moments and posed traditional arrangements that together gave us an assortment of pictures that we will cherish forever. If asked would I recommend this vendor to a friend, my answer is a resounding "I do!"
GUEST




I interviewed several photographers and decided to go with Carrie. She is such a pleasure to work with from start to finish. She did an amazing job with our engagement pictures and did a wonderful job on our wedding day. My family and friends can't stop talking about how beautiful and natural our pictures look. Thank you again Carrie, you made our perfect day even better!
GUEST




Carrie is an amazingly gifted artist! My pictures are out of this world!!! Not to mention, she is the SWEETEST person to work with. She is a little on the expensive side, but the girl is worth every penny!!! I had no issues with her and nothing negative to say. I would recommend her to every bride out there. She's a gem.
GUEST




Carrie was wonderful to work with. Her images were not the everyday posed pictures, and her attention to detail was amazing. She was very professional and a pleasure to work with.

Eric and I married at Brooker Creek Preserve on April 30, 2011. From the minute we met with Carrie wilds we were instantly impressed. Not only with her professionalism but her spunky easy to like personality. During the whole process-from engagement shoot to wedding- she was accommodating and flexible. She and Brian caught moments in pictures that will remain with us forever. Notto mention that Carrie went above and beyond to give our names to the St. Pete times to run our story. Going with Carrie wildes photography was a decision we will never regret. I've recommended her to many people who were also impressed with her work.

I had Sylense Labit, one of Carrie's associates, cover my wedding. Sylense was everywhere but not conspicuous -- she was the least annoying (and therefore, nicest) photographer ever. This was one of my pet peeves from attending over a dozen weddings in the past year. Anyway, Sylense even set up a slide show of the ceremony and reception photos during the reception for guests to view. Sylense worked with our dj to keep everything on schedule so we could fit all our "events" (cake cutting, garter, bouquet, etc) into my 6 hours with her. This was great, so I didn't need to keep track of time. She was also exceptionally good at corralling our huge families during the family portraits. This was very important, since we had hired buses to take people to and from the ceremony area and were on a tight time schedule.My only complaint would be that Sylense did not take a bridal portrait of me by myself -- I was totally overwhelmed after the ceremony that I didn't think of it, but it would have been nice to have one of these, since that's probably the best I'm ever going to look. Also, I was surprised (in hindsight, again) that she didn't take a photo of my and my husband's hands (especially sad since I made him get a manicure...!) with our new rings. I guess the moral of the story would be to have a very specific list of what and whom you'd like photographed and how. But, barring these omissions, I am very happy with the photos I have seen. I should say that I have not seen all the photos, yet, but the sneak peeks look good. I think I paid $1460 for 6 hours of Sylense's work and a CD of all the edited photos. This also included an engagement session and a CD of engagement photos. Sylense and Carrie also had our favorite engagement photo printed for guests as a favor. This was very cute and unexpected.

We know Carrie's work well and when we planned a destination wedding in Colorado Springs, we didn't want to trust someone else that we didn't know. So we flew Carrie out to help us capture all the moments of our special day and she went above and beyond! All the little moments that sort of remember, but seem to have flown by, she recorded them for me to go back and reflect for years to come.She is even keen on new ways to share the joy of the "big day". She helped us set-up a live web stream so that family and friends back home to "live in the moment" with us and not feel like they were left out.Carrie is so fantastic and she will always find a way to make your wedding day special just for you.

Carrie Wildes is an amazing and talented photographer. Very professional!! The price is a bit more than we wanted to spend and would have liked to get a little more (albums, prints, etc.) for our money. We were very happy with the results even though the price was not what we had hoped!

This little lady...lays on the floor, climbs rocks and gets soaked, if it means getting the perfect shot. That's the reason Carrie Wildes herself did all the photos for our website and fashion show. I truly believe that 1 image is worth 1000 words. Love working with her!!!
Exquisite. Carrie has an artist's eye, and her work is exceptional. Very professional, but warm and friendly. Call Carrie for a once in a lifetime experience.
