Captivate Photo + Cinema is Phenomenal!


We cannot say enough wonderful things about Captivate Photo + Cinema and the incredible experience we had working with Adam, Taylor, Noah & Jay. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make our wedding journey truly unforgettable.

We first encountered Captivate when I (the bride) was a bridesmaid at another wedding they worked on, and I was so impressed by their professionalism, creativity, and warmth that they were an easy choice for our own special day. From our engagement photos to the wedding itself, their talent and dedication shone through in every shot. The photos are breathtakingly beautiful, capturing not just the moments but the emotions behind them. They are timeless memories that we will treasure forever.

One of the absolute highlights was the same-day video edit they created for our reception. It was such a hit! Seeing the day’s most special moments play out on the big screen brought tears to everyone’s eyes and set the tone for an unforgettable celebration. Guests couldn’t stop raving about it during and even after the wedding—it truly was a showstopper and a testament to the team’s talent and efficiency.

Adam, Noah, Taylor & Jay were an absolute dream to work with. Their flexibility and responsiveness made the entire process stress-free. They made not just the bride and groom, but the entire wedding party, feel so welcomed and cared for. They were attentive, professional, and full of creative ideas while always making sure we felt comfortable. It’s rare to find a team that combines this level of talent with such kindness and warmth, but Captivate does it effortlessly.

We would recommend Captivate Photo + Cinema to anyone looking for a team that delivers stunning results and creates an exceptional experience. Thank you, Adam, Taylor, Noah & Jay, for capturing our day so beautifully!

Outstanding Wedding Photographer - Highly Recommend Adam!

We recently had the privilege of working with Adam, our wedding photographer for a 3 day event, and we couldn't be more delighted with the experience. From the moment we began our search for a photographer, Adam stood out as a true professional who demonstrated a wealth of knowledge and genuine enthusiasm for his craft. His exceptional service and warm demeanor throughout the entire process left us thoroughly impressed.

From the initial meeting, Adam's approach was far from pushy. He patiently answered all of our questions and provided invaluable insights, helping us understand what to expect and what we should be looking for in a wedding photographer. This professionalism and transparency instantly put us at ease, and we knew we had found someone we could trust with capturing our special moments.

What truly set Adam apart, though, was the way he seamlessly integrated into our small event. Over the course of those 3 days, he became more than just a photographer; he felt like a part of our family. It was evident that he genuinely cared about us and our special day, and his heartfelt excitement added a beautiful touch to the whole experience. His friendly and approachable nature made working with him a breeze.

One of the most crucial aspects of a wedding photographer is their ability to make the couple feel comfortable in front of the camera, and Adam excelled at this. His unobtrusive and reassuring presence allowed us to be ourselves, and we never felt nervous or self-conscious during the photoshoots. He effortlessly captured candid moments and emotions, resulting in authentic and breathtaking photographs that we will cherish forever.

Adam's dedication to his craft and his passion for what he does shine through in every photograph he took. His attention to detail and his ability to capture the essence of our wedding surpassed our expectations. The end results were stunning and truly reflected the love and joy we experienced on our special day.

We wholeheartedly recommend Adam to anyone in need of a wedding photographer. He is not just a talented professional but also a wonderful person who adds a unique and heartwarming touch to the wedding experience. Choosing Adam was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we are immensely grateful for the memories he has preserved for us. Thank you, Adam, for making our wedding truly unforgettable!

The Captivate team is amazing!

We hired Captivate Photo+Cinema for our wedding in August, and we were so impressed with the team. Adam, Taylor and Blake were professional, organized and made us all feel so comfortable throughout the day! They connected with our guests, and we received so many compliments on how wonderful the Captivate team was! Captivate truly works with your day itinerary and makes the photos feel natural. Captivate had some fun creative ideas for the video and photo and we can't wait to see our final photos soon!

We would highly recommend the Captivate team to all future couples looking for a professional local service to the Niagara region! Thanks you Adam, Taylor, and Blake!

Great experience!

Adam and Reece were a blast to work with on our wedding day. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and allowed us to show our true selves. I heard about Captivate through a friend after watching their same day edit at their wedding, then my sister hired them for her wedding video and they absolutely killed it! Always impressed with their work and highly recommend them!

The Best Day - And the Best Pictures to Prove It!!

We can not express what a wonderful experience we had with Captivate Photo+Cinema! My husband and I are terrible at taking pictures and are generally very awkward about it when we do get around to standing in front of a camera. Adrian and Luis kept us laughing and joking during our entire engagement shoot and wedding day. They immediately felt like old friends and you quickly start to ignore that there is even a camera around. We chose to stay at our wedding venue for pictures and they were so creative at making one building into a multitude of different backdrops. They were timely when answering the million questions we had and with delivery of photos and also helped us to create a timeline with them so our day would run smoothly. They were able to organize a large bridal party and big family to get all of the important pictures that we wanted. We could not be happier with the result of the photographs! We will cherish them for a lifetime!

True Professionalism

We hired Captivate to do our videography and couldn't be happier. Adam and Fraser were awesome to work with from the first consultation right through to our wedding day. They do a fantastic job of shooting what they need to, without getting in the way of your day. We can't wait to see our video!

Highly Recommend

We had the absolute pleasure of having Adrian and Adam work with us for our engagement photos, same day edit and wedding photos.
We had so much fun with Adrian during our engagement shoot, he made it so easy and fun.
We were up in the air about getting a wedding video and we are so incredibly happy that we decided to go with the Same Day edit. They out did themselves and it was amazing to see the final product that they put together. You can truly see the talent these men have. Not going to lie I’ve probably watched it 100 times already and I can’t get enough, it’s perfect and incapsulated who we are so well. We can’t wait to see the wedding photos when there ready.
We would HIGHLY, 100% recommend Captivate Photo+ Cinema for any species event in your life!

Simply the best

Our engagement and wedding was captured stylishly, candidly, and struck the exact tone we wanted! From start to finish, our interactions with our photographer were professional, friendly and totally flexible. He "got" us immediately, and was simply a joy to have as part of our special day!
