There truly aren’t enough words to describe how wonderful Chandler was on our wedding day. We wish we could give him 10 stars. From the moment he arrived, he instantly felt like pa...
rt of our family — kind, calm, and so genuine. He captured every moment with such care and heart, all while blending seamlessly into the day. Chandler’s communication and professionalism were incredible, but what stood out most was how much he clearly loves what he does. We’re beyond grateful to have had him there with us — he didn’t just film our day, he had fun with us! My husband and I HIGHLY recommend Chandler.
The professionalism also spilled over into the management department, clearly displayed by all of our interactions with Lisa. She has excellent communication and was so responsive and kind in answering all questions. From beginning to end, we are elated that we chose Southern Palms Studio!

er is such a special part of our team — his kindness, calm presence, and genuine love for what he does shine through in every wedding he films, and I’m so glad that came across on your day.
It also means a lot that you felt supported by Lisa throughout the process. She brings so much care and attention to each couple she works with, and I know she’ll be so touched to read your kind words.
Wishing you both endless happiness as you begin this new chapter together — it was such a privilege to be part of your celebration!

On the day of the wedding, our photographer Kelsey and videographer Shaun were incredible. Kelsey made the entire photography experience feel so natural and relaxed. She gave great direction when we needed it but also captured so many genuine moments without making anything feel staged. Her calm, positive energy really helped the whole day flow smoothly, and she somehow managed to be everywhere at once capturing all the little moments that made the day so meaningful.
Shaun was just as amazing on the video side. He blended in so seamlessly but was always in the perfect spot to capture the big moments and the small emotional ones too. Watching them work together was impressive! They were clearly a great team and made everything feel effortless.
When we received our sneak peeks, we were blown away. The photos are absolutely stunning and truly captured the feeling of the day. Looking through them felt like reliving our wedding day all over again.
If you’re looking for a photography and video team that is professional, talented, and genuinely cares about capturing your day in a meaningful way, we cannot recommend Southern Palms Studio enough. We are so grateful we had them as part of our wedding day!

Hearing that the sneak peeks made you feel like you were reliving your wedding day is just heartwarming. We’re so grateful to have been part of your celebration and appreciate your high recommendation!
Wishing you all the best in your new journey together!

The turn around time on the video and photos was so much quicker than we expected and the end results were stunning. We could not believe how happy we were with the photos and videos we got back. They truly captured our wedding day perfectly and we couldn’t be happier! We highly recommend Southern Palm Studios to anyone looking for photography and or videography for their wedding!

The day of the wedding Steve and Ashley were a breath of fresh air as some things were not going as planned. They were the best at making my Husband and I feel comfortable in front of the camera and were the best hype team during all the bridal party photos. They even helped clear our plates off our table before speeches. I could go on and on about how great they were! The photos and videos are absolutely perfect! I've lost count on how many times I have watched the video. Our friends and family have given the best compliments on how everything turned out. If you’re looking for wedding photographers/videographers, do not pass on Southern Palms Studio!!

Steve at Southern Palms is the most skilled and professional photographer, full stop. He fosters a very comfortable atmosphere, and is very kind, polite, and funny, not to mention ...
the efficiency he has in getting every shot. I'm not sure how many photographers would be willing, let alone capable, of climbing up the St. Augustine Lighthouse to get shots and then back down to take aerial shots with a drone, all while only having about 20 minutes of light left in the day. His vision and pose coaching are spectacular even when managing shots with 20+ people. We loved working with Steve, and cannot recommend him highly enough.

re what the main photographer wanted from him while photographing the grooms suite, and frankly it shows. We have some gorgeous photos from our wedding day, and some photos that are poorly shot and composed (several are off center/tilted), you can tell who took which pictures instead of having a cohesive album/style. That said, Southern Palms did get us our photos within a week of our wedding which was amazing and the cost was quite reasonable. We just wish there had been more communication between the two photographers and at a minimum a matching style.

He was able to work around the weather and made sure to keep us laughing and engaged to capture our true emotions.

I would also like to note that their customer service was incredible. Lisa answered every question we had along the way with such care and speed we felt so much comfort going into our Wedding.
If you are looking for a photographer, I would highly recommend Southern Palms Photography!

I cannot say this enough, spend your money on your videographer and photography!! It is so worth it in the end. Nobody is going to care about the color of the centerpieces or the flowers. What will matter are the photos and video. We were blown away with our video. It felt like a music video for the song we chose but 10x better!!!! Everything was magical! They were so professional and it was everything we could've dreamed of. Also, Lisa was super helpful and sweet! Thank you so much guys!!!

Choosing a photographer and videographer for our wedding was one of the hardest, most important parts of the planning process for me. But when I met with Southern Palms at a bridal...
show, I knew I had to work with them! Their work is beautiful and was the exact style that I was looking for. Zack, Tyler, and Austin made it SO easy for us both planning and on the day of. They asked all the right questions to ensure that we were getting exactly what we wanted. And because they have a great amount of experience in the photography business, they knew just how to make everything run smoothly (even when I was late to my own wedding, but we won't talk about that!!). They captured every perfect moment of our big day and I couldn't be happier with how our photos and wedding video turned out. If you are looking for professional photographers and/or videographers for any event, I highly recommend Southern Palms.

My husband and I had to postpone our original wedding in NY due to the pandemic but were still wanting to get married on our original date and have a very small ceremony on the bea...
ch on Jekyll island. We knew we wanted to hire a videographer so that we had a special keepsake video that we could have to remember our small but special day, as well as share with our family who could not attend. Zack and Tyler made our wedding day such a breeze. They were very personable, made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and kept us smiling and laughing the entire time. We were absolutely blown away with how beautiful our video turned out! We LOVED working with them and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Thank you, Southern Palms!

Zack and his team were excellent. They clearly knew what they were doing, anticipated moments, and prepared me for certain moments that they wanted to get on film so I didn't look ...
at the camera! I received my highlight video shortly after my wedding followed quickly by my entire ceremony and reception video. Their work is just beautiful.

If you've started the wedding planning process, you've already discovered that picking a wedding photographer is a difficult decision. Personally, I think the photographer is the m...
ost important wedding vendor. I felt all this pressure to pick the perfect person in a price range that I could afford. I had scheduled so many meetings with numerous different companies in Florida and Georgia. The first on my list was meeting Tyler and Zac with Southern Palm Studio. After my meeting with Tyler and Zac, I canceled all the other meetings. My mind was made up. They completely sold me and not because there are good salesmen, but because I could tell that they were honest, genuine, and cared about me and my husband. I instantly fell in love with Tyler's talent. His lighting and angles were so perfect. His photos weren't over edited or "fake". I could feel the love that these couples shared through a photograph. The couples were posed but everything looked so fluid and effortless. You can truly tell that he has a passion for wedding photography and cares about his clients. As soon as I put down the down payment, I felt confident. Tyler communicated with me throughout the planning process. He checked on me and asked how I was doing. I felt like he actually cared and he gave me good advice along the way. He even reached out to me on Veteran's Day to tell my husband thank you for his service. When our wedding day came, we felt like we had known Tyler for years. There was an instant connection and he blew us away. He could turn around and command a non-listening family member and then turn to us and calm every single nerve we had. It was truly amazing to watch him go from hard to gentle. My husband and I could tell that Tyler had us as his main focus, he just wanted our happiness. People don't talk about post-wedding depression but I believe it's a real thing. The day went by so fast and I was so sad. I kept wishing we could just go back. After Tyler got my photos back, I literally spent hours gawking and crying over them. I didn't realize that a photographer could make you relive a day. Now, every time I look at the photos, it takes me back. All the photos have emotion and love in them. He captured everything we wanted and more. I want every single photo, yes all 862 of them, on the walls of my home. Tyler was the best purchase I have ever made and honestly I would have paid him triple for the results we got. Tyler, from the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU.

After talking to all my girlfriends and hearing about their stories of their photographers I can say Zack and Tyler at Southern Palms Studio are the best out there. I planned my we...
dding from out of state and they were so helpful! From makeup recommendations to helping me with my wedding timeline, they were amazing! Also, being in front of a camera was never my favorite thing but they made the experience so fun and I LOVE how the pictures turned out!

I read hundreds of reviews before picking a photographer. Not being from the area this was super hard but this was the best decision ever. Our photographer, Tyler was amazing. From...
the time he arrived he let us know what to expect and gave us a timeline for keeping on track. Our coordinator backed out because of the hurricane looming. Tyler stepped up and took charge. Not only was he our photographer but basically our coordinator. Some family complained about Tyler being "bossy" but he was simply looking out for the bride and grooms wishes and he always kept that his priority. I could not have asked for anything more. Amazing.

nt and wedding photography/videography.
Tyler is especially incredible! He's so funny and makes doing awkward wedding poses so much fun and look incredibly natural. He was so helpful with timelines, creative shots, and really making our special day look magical.
Zane worked wonders with our video. He managed to make us look like movie stars! Our highlight video is everything I could have wanted and more.
I receive nothing but compliments on how beautiful my photos and video are. We are so lucky to have such incredible memories from our wedding day that serve as breathtaking art.
Thank you, Southern Palms!

AMAZING is an understatement. Hiring Tyler with Southern Palms Studio was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Every aspect of planning our day was a breeze. Tyle...
r collaborated with us before the big day to ensure we had a game plan for what shots I wanted and even helped me plan a timeline for our day. His professionalism, friendly demeanor, and pure talent are just a few things that make him the perfect wedding photographer. Our photos were edited and available for us to view within a few short weeks after our wedding (with some teasers sent a few days after) and sent to us in an online gallery that was easy to share with friends and family. We constantly get compliments on what a great job he did. I highly recommend!!!

e us feel comfortable in front of the cameras (we are not ones for a lot of attention!). Zack in the office was very helpful planning with us (we didn’t have a traditional planner) so budgeting time for shot lists and other things was really important and crucial for us. So happy with how it all turned out!

We are SO happy we decided to book with Southern Palms Studio. We corresponded with a Zack during the booking and planning process, and he was extremely professional, friendly and ...
always quick to respond. Tyler, our videographer, did an incredible job capturing every little moment from the day of our wedding. He directed us in what to do, which in the end turned out beautiful on film. The artistic way he shot the day was nothing short of a true professional. And the editing work the team did was incredible! We were completely blown away with the end result in our highlight video. Thank you Zack and Tyler!!

ere concerned how, and if all of the important parts would make it into just a 4 minute highlight video. Tyler and the editing team did a phenomenal job, we could not believe how everything was there and how beautifully it was put together! We are very pleased with our decision to hire Southern Palms as our videographer.

I’ll start off by saying I’m naturally not a patient person. I was apprehensive with hiring a videographer because of the added expense and it doesn’t check off the box of “traditi...
onal” wedding vendors. After coming across Southern Palms work, we decided it would be worth it to relive our day in such a cinematic style. We also had a bunch of family that were unable to make the wedding due to health reasons so having a full ceremony video helped them feel a part of our wedding ceremony which was very important to us. On me being impatient, I was blown away with how fast my questions and emails were answered along with how long it was before we got our wedding video back, under 2 weeks! Amazing! This made me so happy, we had heard horror stories from friends that waited 6+ months to get photos and videos back from other companies. So happy with our decision to hire Southern Palms!
