Takaramono Photography Reviews 16

Hands down, the most trusted, creative, affordable photography and videography team! Always available to communicate details, accounts for what your ideas are, and so friendly and comforting as it can be nerve-wracking to be infront of the camera. They're so timely with their production of photos and videos including highlights. Takaramono Photo has become our go to for these services - from birthdays to weddings, to portraits as well.

We hired Argyle for our son's birthday party and we couldn't be more happy! He was extremely professional and captured so many great memories. He was personable with our family members and recognized many amazing photo opportunities. There was a perfect mix of lovely candid photos as well as posed family photos. Argyle not only captured ours and our guests fun memories, but also the intricate decor details of our party. This was important to us, which he recognized without us even having to say so.

We will definitely love to work with Argyle again!

My husband and I were referred to Takaramono Photography and their wedding photography services through a friend early in 2024. Our wedding planning and date was to be set and ready within 4 months, so we needed a team who was not only available, but able to work with us as we stressed over the quick turnaround. We got all that and so much more from Argyle. From start to finish, he and his team were an absolute dream to work with. He met with us every month prior to the wedding to assess and assist in working out solutions for rain, remote viewing, coordination of portraits, and other game day solutions. When we had questions, he was readily available every time to help. He showed us various examples of photography, and gave us on hand experience from past weddings to help assist in our decisions. By the time the day came, we were ready, and it’s all thanks to the hard work and effort Argyle put in for us.

On our wedding day, Argyle’s team was an absolute breath of fresh air. With the wedding stress going on and tight timings to meet, he and his team were there every step of the way; kindly advising natural poses and movements for photos and video, offering assistance during stressful getting ready moments, and being one step ahead as we headed to the altar. The ceremony and reception went off beautifully, and Argyle’s team caught every heartwarming moment on photo and video, and even caught action shots during some of the improv moments that made our wedding exceptionally special.

Now, Takaramono Photography is not just our photographer for our wedding, but our photographer for life. We will never hesitate to come back again and again for more photography in the future thanks to the wonderful work of Argyle and his team.

Thank you for everything you’ve done for us, we could never have asked for a more phenomenal experience.

I had the pleasure of working with Takaramono Photography (Argyle), and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. His exceptional skill and creative vision truly brought our family portraits/baptism to life. He demonstrated remarkable professionalism, capturing every moment with stunning clarity and artistry. The photos are not just beautiful but also perfectly reflect the mood and essence of the day. Argyle was a joy to work with—friendly, attentive, and incredibly talented. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond to deliver amazing results. :)

Takaramono Photography provided my now husband and I with an experience we will never forget. Argyle and his team were attentive and informative every step of the way. From our engagement shoot, to the planning process, to the delivery of our photos after the big day, they took into consideration how we wanted to capture these moments, and went above and beyond our expectations. I will forever be grateful for their expertise and suggestions. I especially am thankful for their reminder to us to take time throughout the wedding day together to just relax and enjoy the moment. They put us, our family, and guests at ease and it shows in the photos! 10/5 stars !!!

Argyle is a professional photographer. Not only does his quality of work boast of his experience, but also how he conducts himself. From the moment you contact him, he will determine what YOU want as the client and lay out in detail a plan of action. My wife and I got married this summer and we absolutely love all of our photographs and videos. He's an excellent communicator and makes every step of your event/shoot easy. Argyle and his team have done shoots at many events for myself, family, and close friends. He has always gone above and beyond my expectations and will always have my business.

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with the Takaramono Photography team, who exceeded our expectations for our special day overall. They were incredibly accommodating to our specific needs and preferences and held that balance of being extremely professional and fun, making the entire experience much more enjoyable.

What really impressed us, however, was how well-prepared the main photographer, Argyle, was for any situation that may have arisen throughout the day. From wardrobe malfunctions to power outages in the hall, he had some kind of tool ready for use from one of his many pockets that would help put our minds at ease.

Throughout their services, the team remained personable and approachable, especially Argyle and Damian, taking the time to get to know us and our vision for the day. They ensured everyone was on the same page throughout the process, with multiple meetings to discuss the action plan, quick response times through text/ email, and honest feedback.

Overall, I cannot recommend the Takaramono Photography team enough. Their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail truly made our day unforgettable. Thank you so much!!!

I've worked with a lot of different photographers in different stages of their careers, and Argyle is among the best out there. He has plenty of experience in working with people, and it shows--he is respectful, professional, and, above all else, kind. My photoshoot was a great experience, and I felt safe and comfortable. He really wants to promote the best in his clients, so do yourself a favour and go with Argyle!

Amazingly kind and outgoing! Such a pleasure working with Takaramono Photography, even got us, models, bottles of water on an incredibly hot day!

Very fast with editing pictures, very talented with angles and efficient with directions.

Friendly service, very professional. Good with my family and I. Gave us what we wanted

Argyle is the best! Very accommodating and professional. Highly recommended! Worth every penny 🤍

I hired Argyle and his team to preserve the special memories of my 65th birthday function with a combination of photographs and video. Argyle and Damian were extremely professional throughout the entire evening and the resulting photographs and video they provided me was absolutely spectacular. I would highly recommend using Argyle's services for any special function where you require permanent keepsakes of your treasured moments.

Argyle made sure to make the whole experience great, really working around us so that we could enjoy the day and have great pictures and video. Would highly recommend

Takaramono truly captured the night and created memories that will last a lifetime. I was really impressed by their professionalism and candour. Despite the owners of the banquet hall providing very poor service, those negative feelings were overshadowed by the footage and photos that fostered all the positive emotions that a celebration should be remembered for. My guests got teary-eyed again from seeing the speeches; the music they chose for the full film was sentimental and fun. I highly recommend Argyle and his team for any occasion. He has done a sporting event and my daughter’s 18th (Filipino Debut). These memories are proudly shared among family and friends; and for generations to come.
Thank you for being a blessing Argyle and the Takaramona team.

Argyle and his team went above and beyond for our engagement shoot. They picked a great location with beautiful fall colours. Argyle coordinated different poses and angles to produce exactly the pictures we wanted. His style of editing is unique and speaks of his skill. His prices are competitive and he is easy to work with. I will absolutely be hiring him for my wedding.

Amazing photographer. Not only does he take great pictures, he helps direct your poses for the photo's to make you feel more comfortable and to help achieve amazing pictures
