    Tim and his wife Allison are absolutely amazing photographers, we cannot say enough about how wonderful they were. They are professional, talented, incredibly accommodating, and so nice! Tim took our engagement photos back in August, and we were so pleased with them as well. Tim and Allison were so wonderful to all our family, at the rehearsal, wedding and reception. We couldn't have asked for a better team! Our pictures are gorgeous, we can't stop looking at them! They managed to capture everything, and with a great sense of humor as well. They are well worth the investment and I we highly highly recommend them!!!

    My husband and I recently got married and it took us very little time to decide on a photographer. I had seen previous work by Camera Famosa and knew that they had to be the ones photographing our special day. Tim and Allison of Camera Famosa have created such a fabulous business. The pictures we received were breathtaking and arrived so much faster than I had ever anticipated. Tim and Allison make you feel so comfortable and will help guide you to ensure your pictures turn out beautiful. We would strongly recommend Camera Famosa to everyone!

    Absolutely loved working with our photographers! Tim and Allison made everything so easy for us and really worked with us to get amazing pictures. Couldn't be happier with our choice of photographers and would certainly recommend them to anyone!

    We chose Tim and Allison at Camera Famosa for our wedding last August in Lake Placid, NY. As we were living in Maryland, we had to prepare everything long distance. After endless searching for a photographer, we found Camera Famosa. After one conversation on the phone with Tim, we knew he had to be our photographer. Not only was he incredibly professional and flexible with meeting our needs, he was kind and wonderful to speak with. I felt immediately at ease when speaking to him and he allowed me to ask endless questions to understand exactly what would happen. As we were unable to drive up to meet with Tim and Allison before the wedding, we spoke by FaceTime. They were so organized and professional, helping us come up with a timeline and going over every detail. We entered into this relationship knowing we had the best photographers to work with, and on the day of our wedding, that became even more true. They floated soundlessly between locations, guiding photos here and there, but allowing our day to flow naturally. I felt incredibly comfortable with them around and knew they were keeping track of all of our photos. When great photo opportunities presented themselves, such as an unexpected beautiful sunset, they would quickly grab us and then let us return to the party. Towards the end of our evening, they even joined us on the dance floor! I cannot say enough about how amazing it was to have these two wonderful people photograph our day. They made us feel calm and comfortable. And the icing on the cake, our pictures are absolutely gorgeous!

    We first met Tim and Allison when they took our engagement photos and the experience was playful, full of laughter, and an adventure in its own right. We brought to the table a bunch of unconventional ideas for shots and they executed them all with flair and openness.

    We loved the pics and used them in our wedding mailings to great effect. When we called Tim to let him know we were not going to be getting married in New York, it was with great sadness because we wanted to keep working together...and to our amazement, he and Allison were willing to make the journey ACROSS THE COUNTRY to shoot our wedding in Los Angeles! It was a dream come true. They were willing to go all out for us.

    Throughout our correspondences they were prompt, professional, and accommodating. During the wedding they followed our vision and were never intrusive or distracting. We had a ton of chatty wedding party members to wrangle as well, and they got everyone onboard the picture-train with ease.

    They don't pose you very much in the traditional sense, they're real strength (and what we wanted most) is capturing the energy between people candidly.

    Once you speak with them, you'll get a sense of their style. They're warm, lovely artists and they bring that ease and warmth to their sessions. We can't recommend them highly enough!

    Tim and Allison were amazing! As the groom, I originally thought the need for a professional photographer was overrated. Then we had our first meeting with Tim and Allison and my mind was changed. We did our engagement shoot on the coldest day of the year and they didn't complain once nor were they short on ideas. They were extremely communicative leading up to the wedding and even had a Skype meeting with us the week prior to get everything in order.

    The day of the wedding went smoother than we had hoped. Tim and Allison were extremely prepared and fully focused on our day. Despite never being to our venue, they knew where we should take pictures and who should be where. We felt so comfortable working with them, it felt like they were part of the wedding. There were times it didn't even feel like they were around, but after looking at the finished photos, they were everywhere!

    I couldn't have been happier with our decision to go with Camera Famosa for our wedding day. Not only would I recommend them to friends for their wedding, I would recommend them to do any photo shoot for a friend.

    I suspect our wedding day isn't the last time we will work with Tim and Allison. I fully plan on reaching out for whatever occasion we need a professional photographer next!

    We could not be any happier with our engagement and wedding photos and it is all because of Tim and Allison at Camera Famosa. We enjoyed working with them from the beginning to the end. They are extremely friendly, personal, professional, motivated, competent and honest. I can not say enough positive things about them and would recommend them anyone! We will definitely use Camera Famosa for future events and photo shoots.

    I had a great experience working with Camera Famosa. Tim was extremely flexible. We were on a tight budget, and he was able to provide me with some options outside his standard packages. Also, he spent a lot of time with me prior to the event to make sure he knew our expectations. We had to make some last minute changes, and he was very adaptable.
    The day of the wedding he was extremely helpful. We were running late and everything was a little disorganized, and he was able to give direction. It was probably outside of the scope of his role. However, he was willing to give advice and help everyone who had questions.
    I have been totally impressed with Tim, and can't say enough good things about him. If you are looking for a photographer, I would definitely hire Camera Famosa.

    Tim and Allison photographed our wedding and were a joy to work with. They are both friendly, professional, and so easy to work with. We love our engagement photos and the few wedding sneak peeks we've seen and look forward to getting the rest of our wedding photos. We will definitely look to Tim and Allison to photograph any future events for us!

    Tim and Allison (Camera Famosa) were the most amazing wedding photographers! They had great suggestions for places we could do our first-look photos and family photos before the wedding. They were also incredibly efficient at getting photos of all the groups of people we wanted-- they got every shot and we didn't have to stand there for an hour or two just taking pictures (which is something I've seen all too often at other people's weddings). And, amidst the chaos of our families and friends, Tim and Allison remained calm and incredibly nice. They even stuck around to the bitter end to get shots of the crazy dancing (which ended up being some of my favorite images). I couldn't be happier with the outcome of the photos themselves. I have so many amazing photos to choose from. If you are looking for a wedding photographer in the Saratoga area, you MUST consider Camera Famosa.

    One of our top priorities while planning our wedding was to find a photographer that would capture our special day with gorgeous photographs. Upon seeing Camera Famosa's portfolio online, and then also seeing their work in person at their studio, made us realize immediately that they were the right photographers for our wedding day. They were so flexible while working with us. They agreed to travel all the way to Cooperstown, NY for our wedding. They were also able to accommodate our large family and large wedding party. Even with so many photos to take, they were so efficient that we able to finish all of our family photos and wedding party photos, and still have time to partake in the cocktail hour with our guests! The quality of their work is amazing...we received over 600 beautiful photographs that we will cherish forever! We highly recommend Camera Famosa!

    Tim and Alison did an excellent job capturing our day. They spared no difficulty in addressing our need. The combination of a Hindu and American wedding made it a long day and they were there to capture every moment. Tim even traveled to State College PA for us to take our engagement pictures with no hesitation. We did not get our photographs printed but the quality Tim provided on the USB drives are high resolution and give us the freedom later to print what we like. We have also used Tim to take headshots and if we stayed in the area would have likely used them for future events.

    We couldn't have asked for a better photography than the one we for with Tim and Allison at Camera Famosa, in the meetings prior they were always friendly, prepared and professional. On our wedding day we loved having them around, they chatted easily with our family and friends while capturing moments with excellence. We received our photos on time and are very pleased with the results! Would absolutely recommend them!

    Tim and Allison were wonderful! They are both super easy to work with and take incredible photos! They are also very flexible and accommodating, and know how to get those "in the moment shots". My husband and I wouldn't want to work with anyone else on our wedding day. We will most certainly be back to have Tim and Allison photograph future events of ours!

    My husband and I love Tim and Alison! From the first time we met Tim at a bridal show to the last time we saw them when they were shooting our friend's wedding (we recommended them) they have been professional, kind, and a joy to work with! We were very pleased with our pictures and the overall experience of working with them. We will definitely use them again in the furniture for other photography needs!

    Working with Camera Famosa was a wonderful experience for my husband and I.

    We live in San Francisco so were doing most of our planning from the west coast-- finding vendors through referrals and online reviews. We liked the Camera Famosa portfolio online so reached out. Tim and Allison promptly set up a Skype interview with us, and by the end of a 30 minute call we knew we'd found our wedding day photographers. Leading up to the wedding we had multiple Skype calls with them to work out the details of the big day and they helped us determine a unique location to take our first look pictures in Saratoga that turned out to be just perfect (beautifully rustic, with no one around!).

    The day of the wedding went without a hitch. They kept the wedding on schedule and got all the shots we wanted, while adding artistic touches and taking advantage of lighting and fall foliage. Tim is a wonderful photographer and Allison is a huge help in setting up the shots and making you feel comfortable. They worked nonstop to capture every moment of our day from the moment they arrived in the bridal suite until the reception ended!

    We received our photography package shortly after the wedding and are so happy with the pictures. We highly recommend Camera Famosa for your wedding.

    Camera Famosa was the perfect fit for us from the start! Through our wintry engagement photo shoot (which included our dog) and our beautiful summer-like wedding day in September (again, with our dog featured as our ring bearer), Tim and Allison were a joy to work with. They were patient, flexible, creative, professional and best of all, felt like friends from the start.

    With all the pressure and uncertainty that comes with planning a wedding, it was a relief to know that we could depend on our photographers to be where they needed to be, and yet to maintain their spontaneity to catch those unexpected moments during the ceremony and reception. We waited on pins and needles for those first sneak-peek shots, which proved that we had made the right choice - the pictures were stunning.

    We would absolutely recommend Camera Famosa to anyone planning an event, or just to have some fun in their studio. We hope to have another occasion work with them again!

    My husband and I were thrilled to have Allison and Tim photograph our wedding! We found that when searching for a wedding photographer, it is important not only to find beautiful work, but also to meet someone who you will feel comfortable spending a lot of time with through the chaos and excitement of your wedding day. Camera Famosa delivered spectacularly gorgeous photos, and we thoroughly enjoyed having Tim and Allison share in the fun of our day. They were a blast!
    In planning our outdoor wedding on our farm, we cared deeply about keeping our vendors local and environmentally friendly, and Tim and Allison were the perfect choice. Right away when I met them and visited their studio, I knew they were exactly who we were looking for. Your wedding day truly does fly by in the blink of an eye, so we are amazed with the way that Tim captured every beautiful detail of our wedding for us to remember forever. One of Tim's most incredible and unique talents as a photographer is to capture candid moments of the day unfolding, and these particular photos are the ones we and our families treasure most.
    Though any wedding photographer is going to be a significant part of your wedding budget, believe us that is it absolutely worth it, and we found Camera Famosa to be very reasonably priced compared to other photographers of a similar quality and talent. Lastly, unlike some other photographers, the fact that Camera Famosa's wedding package includes digital rights to ALL of the photos is absolutely essential, and an incredible value. To be able to reproduce the photos, give them to family members, and preserve them digitally is truly a gift.

    Overall, we could have found no better photographer to preserve the memories of the happiest day of our lives than Camera Famosa!

    Tim and Allison were beyond AMAZING! Both our engagement and wedding photos came out perfect! The day of our wedding we ran very very very short on time! Tim and Allison never skipped a beat and with smiles on their faces got all our shots done in record timing(and no sacrifice on quality)! With all the meeting and planing leading up to our wedding Tim was by far our easiest vendor to work with, he answered all our questions very quickly and kept us on track with arranging all the different photos we wanted for our wedding. We can't wait to work with Camera Famosa again as our family grows!

    Camera Famosa is the photographer to go with. We first met Tim and his wife, Alison, at the Times Union Wedding Show. I had taken several photographers business cards and information. I went through the info and pictures and decided to meet with Tim and go from there. After my husband and I met with him we decided not to look any further. Tim is EXTREMELY laid back and flexible, which is exactly what we were looking for. Our engagement shoot was only supposed to last 2 hours...it was frigidly cold in February and Tim pressed on until he felt that we were happy with the pictures he had taken. Leading up to the wedding I knew I didn't have to worry about Tim. Being the overly paranoid bride I was, I sent SEVERAL emails to Tim in the 2 years of wedding planning. He always responded and never acted like I was inconveniencing him. He, and Alison, showed up and blended into the group. They were responsive and took amazing photos. We had planned to take pictures at one location, but due to rain that wasn't going to work. Tim rolled with the punches and took some gorgeous indoor shots. Tim and Alison were with us the entire day and were a pleasure to work with. They captured the most important parts of our wedding, as well as some great candids. We loved Camera Famosa so much that we will be having our family portraits done with them in the next few months. You should have no reservations about choosing Camera Famosa as your photographer!

    Tim and Allison Greer were absolutly wonderful to work with. They never made the day about them and what shot they thought I should pose for. Instead they found the right moment and captured it for us. I'm so glad that I went with Camera Famosa for the best night of my life. They were professional, fun, and beyond talented. Highly recommended for any occassion and can't wait to have them come back for baby photos.......in the future of course!!

    The photos speak for themselves - they are perfect. Tim and Allison didn't miss anything at the ceremony or the reception. They were very professional but very friendly and easy-going. The engagement photo session was also very fun - and the pictures came out beautiful. We hold them in the highest regards.
