Fabio Oliveira Wedding Photography

EDIT: Thanks for the reply and apology. The conversation took place on Instagram; I have now sent you a message to make it easier for you to find the full conversation history. I acknowledge it was a long time between the incident and leaving a review. I've had two babies during this time and my husband deployed to Iraq, so I have been very time poor.

I very rarely leave bad reviews, but I had such a poor experience with this photographer that I decided to leave feedback to hopefully stop others from having the same experience. I contacted Fabio in June 2018 about photographing our elopement in September of that year. He replied to say he was free and would be happy to be our photographer, and from there we discussed some ideas of what would work and firmed up the plans for the day. I presumed from here that it was locked in and I stopped looking for other photographers. Bizarrely though, I never heard from Fabio again. I messaged to find out about paying a deposit and never heard anything back. I left it a week before messaging again, then called his business number and left a couple of voicemails. I ended up checking his instagram account to see if there had been some sort of change in circumstances that would explain it, but no, there were just videos of him watching the football world cup!? It was incredibly rude, and left us scrambling to find another photographer on an already tight deadline. A wedding is such a special time and this actually put a dampener on it for us in the lead up to the big day. I would suggest finding someone more reliable if you are looking for a wedding photographer.

Fabio is such an amazing photographer! We are very happy with every single photo that he took for our yearly family photos. He was very easy to work with, knew exactly what we wanted. My 3 years old daughter usually was quite shy with strangers, but Fabio made her feeling very comfortable just in a few minutes and laughed so much during the whole photo session. Thank you!

We could not be happier with our choice in Fabio as our wedding photographer. He was a professional in how he operates and captured all the special moments in our day. The photos are amazing and he captured the great energy of the guests and of us throughout the day. Outside of being a fantastic photographer has a great personality and we felt very comfortable and relaxed with him the whole time.

Absolutely the best wedding photography around town! Fabio is easy to work with & captures the moments naturally & beautifully.

Look forward to see him again at our actual wedding day!
