Diallo was amazing from day one to my husband and I. I am big on quality and was searching for someone who could not only paint the day but tell a story. I was searching for weeks, simply because way after the wedding all you will have are the memories and I knew that I’d want to invest in something that would last far beyond the day. From the very first video call we had, he asked us about our story and was very interested in who we were but also who we wanted to be that day. Lol my husband and I are New York City kids and we wanted that to be shown in every way from the music to the video and Diallo listened.
Day of, I can only speak from a bride’s POV, but it’s very scary that morning and there is so much going on and so many people around you. Not only those facts remain, but I am a very shy person and was not use to so much attention and focus on me. Diallo and his team member (who was just as amazing) they came in very patient and positive, because I’m sure they’ve seen this before. They instructed me with such a calm voice and treated me like a Queen promoting her first campaign lol! My bridesmaids felt comfortable as well as they both boosted the morale and got us ready for the big show!
During my husband and I’s first look I just remember being so nervous I could barely walk up the hill to see him and Diallo helped me get up the peeks and valleys in my wedding shoes! They captured it all! The tears, the laughs the awkwardness of me and my husband, showcasing our love to the world. It was perfect!
The reception was great! They followed all of us around ! As we danced from every corner of the room!
I can’t imagine the day without Diallo and team! Thank you for your patience, your care and your positivity! It was noted the entire day and appreciated by the lovely newly...
Read moreif you're going to spend money for anything on your wedding day, spend it on a quality videographer/photographer and Diallo was just that - he was fantastic! I booked one of his packages which includes an engagement photoshoot and 10hrs for the wedding festivities. I heard of him many years ago and a year before I got engaged, I told him I would hire him because of his quality and that's exactly what I did. Not only does he make your wedding day about you, because trust the aunties and uncles will try to fight for his time at YOUR WEDDING, he never lets up. He's always around the bride, groom, and their parties. You tell him what you want and he literally makes it happen.
When the festivities came about, he made sure to ask me who were the people I wanted pictures of in my wedding and I gave him a list. If you know African aunties, they want pictures of themselves doing everything and he did not adhere to their request. He took pictures of me, my friends, family and would snap pictures of my guest in important moments. He was never out of sight - even caught me crying LOL. Whenever the aunties would insert themselves in my images, he would shoot to flicks and tell them he was done.
I literally fell asleep during my head-washing and woke up to him there still, waiting for the entire wedding day to be over, I'm forever grateful to him and his team for capturing my big day!...
Read moreI don’t even know where to begin but man are you TALENTED!!! I am really blown away not only by the quality of the photos and videos but also by your vision, patience, kindness, and professionalism cause if you know, you know lol. Before we set a date for the wedding, you were the one I had in mind from the jump. I prayed that you’d be the one to capture my wedding day….Look at God!!! It is so evident how much love and care you put into your work. It truly truly speaks for itself. There is so much I can say but I’ll end up writing a whole essay. Your talent speaks for itself, period. I smile every time I look at my wedding photos and videos & that is all thanks to you. We are really grateful. To many more wonderful memories captured by...
