Castaldo Studios were both our photographer and videographer at our wedding in Orlando in March! They were so much fun to have at the wedding. They were fun, super easy going and had so much knowledge/comfort with our venue and found all the good spots for photos. Cecily, Dom and their team were professional, friendly and kept us laughing. We saw sneak peeks of our photos the very next day! We also got the rest of our photos only about a few weeks later.
The turnaround time was fantastic! We are still waiting on our video and can't wait to see it. Our only wish was that there were more photos of our guests! Castaldo did a fantastic job! Highly recommend if you are looking for fun wedding photographers!
