Shangri-La Hotel Wedding Photography
The Shangri-la Hotel Experience: From Our Couples
"We used Lucas & his associates as our wedding photographer and it was the best choice we made. Not only were they extremely professional and creative with their shots, they helped guide us during the official shoot. They’ve got a ton of cool gadgets used to elevate traditional wedding photos and an eye for the perfect shot. You can really tell they both love what they do as they took both our shot list into consideration and created their own unique ideas on the spot. If you’re a type A bride or not fully comfortable with the whole photography experience, these are your people. Throughout the evening, Lucas showed us shots and checked in on us to see if there were any additional photos we wanted. On such a nerve wracking day, both Lucas and Masood made us feel so confident, my husband now thinks he should be in GQ. Highly recommend."
