“I worked with Krista and Lumina from summer 2020 until September 2022, when Matthew and I had our wedding. From the very beginning, Krista was extremely responsive, and was always eager to meet and answer any initial questions I had. Not only did she guide me on our photography/videography journey, but she went above and beyond by helping me when I had any other general wedding related questions, or needed vendor recommendations. Krista was extremely supportive, and amidst my wedding planning stress, she was always calm, patient and kind, always keeping me at ease.
We first worked together in summer 2020, doing our engagement photoshoot with Lumina outside. It was absolutely stunning, and we were beyond happy with the photos. We have now most recently received our wedding photos/videos from September 2022, and all I can say is WOW! They are absolutely phenomenal, and capture the fun and dynamic atmosphere of our wedding, memories we will cherish for a lifetime in the form of photos and videos. We could not be more thrilled to have worked with Lumina and Krista, and could not recommend them enough to those looking for top-tier photographers/videographers in the wedding industry. From the customer service, prompt response to emails, willingness to tailor to your needs, and quality of photo/video, you will definitely not be disappointed! Thank you Krista and Lumina for perfectly capturing our best day ever!” - Emma

“Our top favourite vendor is Lumina -hands down! We had our wedding 4 weeks ago and one of our favourite memory from it is watching our same-day highlight video at our reception! We were amazed at how well the video turned out and how quickly they added footage of just hours beforehand. Our family and friends were so impressed, they still talk about it now. From the first meeting with Krista, we liked her right away. She has great communication, super reliable, flexible, gives great recommendations as well as wants to hear our feedback. They have a great team of photographers and videographers, we enjoyed working with Jared and Nhi! They gave great direction on our movements and poses which made my husband and I feel comfortable in front of the cameras. We can't thank Krista and the team enough, and recommend them to everyone!” - April

“We hired Lumina to do both photo and video coverage of our wedding. I don’t have enough words to explain what an amazing job Krista and her team at Lumina did. Not just for our wedding, but for the entire two years leading up to it. It all started with Krista getting back to me immediately via both text and email when I submitted my inquiry. If you’re familiar with planning your own wedding, you know that often vendors take days to respond and sometimes they don’t respond at all. Not in this case. From the very beginning Krista would always respond to me so quickly which made my planning process so much smoother, and she was able to work with me on my budget so that I didn’t have to go over budget to work with them. Lumina quickly became my favorite vendor that we hired for our wedding day. We got engaged in 2020 during peak covid, and planned our wedding for 2022. For two years I would randomly reach out to Krista with my questions, worries, plans, and she was always amazing at putting my mind at ease and offering great suggestions. My entire wedding process wouldn’t have been the same without her!
We first worked with Krista and Celine for our engagement session, which quickly started feeling like a fun hangout with new friends. The photos we received afterwards were so beautiful I was in shock. I don’t always love how I look in photos, but I loved every single photo we got back from them. On the day of the wedding we worked with Krista, Celine, another Krista, Kas, and Jon. Each of them were absolutely amazing to work with and so friendly! My husband and I are pretty uncomfortable being filmed/photographed, but this team made us feel much more at ease and comfortable with it. Throughout the day we felt like they all became our friends. I know we will always look back on our wedding day and remember these 5 wonderful people we worked with. Our wedding videos and photos are so perfect I'll be showing them off forever. To Krista and her team, thank you SO much for being one of the best parts of our two year engagement and wedding day. We are so grateful for everything and working with you all was such a great experience. I 100% recommend Lumina for any photo/video needs to anyone who is getting married and wants to work with a very special and amazing team. THANK YOU!!” - Tiana

“One of the best parts of my wedding was working with Krista at Lumina. You always have a couple of favourite vendors and Krista is hands down one of them. She is responsive, organized, experienced, and her team is, of course very, very talented. Krista really thinks from the client's perspective and tries to be as flexible as she can to help accommodate their wants. I always felt like she was thinking from my best interest - thank you! I also loved working with Jared - top-notch skills aside, he was a joy to work with and made the entire wedding party felt so comfortable. The same goes for the rest of the team - thank you so much. I couldn’t have imagined picking anyone else as my photography/videography team.” - Alice

“Krista and her team are so great to work with. As someone who has never enjoyed taking photos or being photographed, Krista made it into a fun and light process. Everything felt natural and professional and it was such a blast.” - Jared

“I can’t begin to thank Lumina Weddings and Events for capturing our elopement ceremony incredibly which was the most important thing to us since we had no guests attend our wedding. I still can’t get over how much fun we had with them and at how well the day went. They have the most amazing team.

Working with Krista was one of the best experiences I’ve had. The whole wedding planning process was so easy. She was always responsive, thorough and helpful. Anytime I had an idea, I would text her and she quickly responded and made sure it was incorporated on the day. On the day of our ceremony, she helped with coordinating to make sure the day went smoothly. Their videographer and photographer - just amazing! The videographer was able to take such great videos that highlighted everything we wanted to be in the video. The photographer was so helpful with telling us what to do and how to pose to get the amazing shots. Then the editor was able to put together a perfectly told story for the video. They literally brought our vision to life. Their team was so caring and friendly. Krista and the team would help with holding anything we needed to get the perfect shots. Krista also held my train, without me asking, so that my dress wouldn’t get dirty! They were all so super sweet! We didn’t even feel like we were shooting a video and taking photos. Both my husband and I have done photoshoots before and it felt like work, but we had SO much fun with the team.

Everyone we shared the video with was in awe. Everyone we shared the teaser photos were obsessed. I am SO happy I went with them for our special day. They exceeded my expectations.

I would 1000 percent recommend them and use them again for any more special events we have in the future!

Thank you so much Lumina!” - Asha

“Lumina is an amazing team! I worked very closely with Krista and Jared, and they are both phenomenal - as well as the rest of the team. We planned our wedding before the pandemic, and of course because of that we had to reschedule the event 3 times. Every single time, the team was so gracious with the changes and kept rolling with the event changing from formal, to not formal at all, to only having 10 people at the wedding...to finally having our wedding when the restrictions had eased up. Krista had several meetings with us and helped us to figure out a timeline, the details and everything. She helped me create the timeline for the wedding based on what I wanted the final product to look like. On the day of - the team was very professional, calm and kind. They arrived right on time, they were very organized, and they kept us calm when we were running behind schedule - they just worked their magic and worked things out so we would arrive right on time to the venue. They were also amazing with my parents - especially being from another culture - they were so respectful of everyone and made everyone feel so comfortable. Finally, our final photos and videos are AMAZING! Amazing shots and edits - I even gave this team non-western music to put on the video edits and they nailed it perfectly.

Very highly recommend!” - Selva & Navid

“Having seen the end results, I honestly don't know how they managed to capture everything they did because they seemed invisible on the day… Lumina truly went above and beyond during the months our wedding was delayed. Their connections in Vancouver's wedding industry proved invaluable while we were rescheduling with our various vendors.”
