Testimonials: Philly Wedding Photographers & Makeup Artists
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY:
Nine years after their wedding we sat down with the Edmondsons and this is what they had to say about their wedding photographs. “There are a couple of things that define family moments—wedding pictures is one of them.” – Joel Edmondson
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY, DAY AFTER SESSION, & BRIDAL MAKEUP:
“We got a lot more than we paid for… We are very lucky to have met Ade and Gina. Ade comes alive on the day of the occasion, he makes it his top priority to bring his energy and A-game. His eye for shots is positively uncanny, he is an amazing talent. Gina is a lifesaver, like many celebrity makeup artists, Gina is not just there to do your makeup, she is there to be an amazing friend. I don’t think I could’ve gotten through the morning properly without her. Gina’s makeup was photographed beautifully and vice versa; his photos perfectly captured me and my bridesmaids’. We looked amazing. This had so much to do with their experience as a team.” – Christine Chong
THE IMPORTANCE OF AN ALBUM TESTIMONIAL:
Kimberly & Preston speaks on tracking us down as we moved across state lines in order for us to photograph and makeup their wedding; as well as, how pleased they are with their album.
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY:
“Our wedding was on 4/18/19 and to this day I still look at my pics all the time. Ade captured such beautiful photos of our event, but more important moments that we would have never seen without the attention to detail and expertise of his staff. He arrived on time and coached me and my bridal party through a fun and beautiful pre-ceremony shoot. I felt comfortable with him and my girls did as well; even the flower girls loved him! I cannot thank Ade & Gina Studios enough for their care and professionalism before, during, and after our wedding! Great work and thank you sincerely for these amazing images and an experience that will live with us forever!” – Turkessa Jarvis

ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY:
“My Fiancé and I used Ade and Gina Studios for our engagement pictures. It was a pretty fun experience. The first hour was used by Gina (who is a Doctor) to apply my makeup. It was done well, and not only that, I was given advice and sample products, to help my skin pending the wedding. Ade took Buchi and I on an adventure. The experience was not what I expected, but I loved every second of it. Ade put thought, energy, and time into making sure we took the best pictures. The quality of our pictures are also amazing. I would recommend using Ade and Gina Studios for any major life events coming your way.” – Adunola Bello

WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY & BRIDAL MAKEUP:
“Our photographer and makeup artist Ade Oshodi & Dr. G (Dynamic duo) deserve a standing ovation for capturing such amazing photos on such a strange day (lightly put). They literally can operate under any circumstances. I witnessed it myself. We all know this was not the original wedding we had planned and after Covid 19 caused our first wedding to be canceled I really had no interest in planning another one. I felt so defeated. I told Ade, “no matter what happens on my wedding day please just get great photos of Percel and I.” Ade promised me, and he delivered. I could never thank you enough. Just a quick background on Ade and Dr. G. They are a married couple. Dr. G was actually my primary care doctor a while back. We reconnected through me finding her and Ade’s photography business page. Then I found out Dr. G is also a makeup artist & specializes in skincare! The rest is history- I’m so grateful to have met you both!” – Tierra Eiland
BRIDAL MAKEUP:
“Gina and her team were extremely professional, working closely with me both before and the day of my wedding to ensure that the makeup matched my vision. The biggest testament to her skill is that not only did I look great but my bridesmaids were absolutely gorgeous! She adapted the overall look to each person’s features and skin tone. I truly believe I had the most beautiful bridesmaid’s crew ever to stand beside someone at the altar.” – Antonia Dean
PRE-WEDDING SKIN CARE:
“I had such a great experience going to Dr. Charles to treat my terribly sun damaged face prior to my wedding. Dr. Charles did an AMAZING job with the peel sessions that helped brightening my face, and clear up all the brown spots on my face. She also kept following up after my wedding to check on me. I highly recommend Dr. Charles to anyone that needs an excellent expert to clear their face and be make-up free for everrrr.” – Kim K.
ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY & MAKEUP:
“This dynamic duo is AMAZING. They were professional, courteous, kind and patient with us during our shoot. The entire experience was beyond my expectations and the photos were breathtaking. Ade paid attention to detail, provided excellent quality of photos, and creativity. We are so happy we choose him to shoot and capture such a special moment in our lives. My makeup was flawless! Gina choose the colors, applied perfectly and needed no direction. It was my first time having my makeup professionally done and she is the only person I will call.” – Jade Mills-Little

WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY & BRIDAL MAKEUP:
“This dynamic duo helped to make my wedding everything my husband and I could have wanted and more. From day one, through to the wedding day and even after, their professionalism, talent and artistry created memorable moments that are still being talked about today. Gina is a talented makeup artist that uses her knowledge of skincare and makeup to create flawless looks. She treats you, not just as a client, but also as a friend that wants you to have the best possible experience on your wedding day. She listened to me and helped to create the look that I desired. She along with her team provided flawless service to me, my mother, mother-in-law and bridal party. That not just looked great in person but photographed well in our professional photos taken by Ade.
And speaking of professional photographer Ade, if you want your memories captured in classic style and artistry, he’s the professional to do it. He has an eye for detail and a magic touch in his hands. His photos captured every moment, big and small, and really show the range of his photography skills. My husband and I are grateful that he was there to help us capture these lifelong memories of one of the most magical moments in our life. I highly recommend their services for any and every special moment in your life.” – Kaleah Jones
BRIDAL MAKEUP:
“Gina has great skills and technique and her personality blended in with the bridal party. A fun experience, Gina was extremely professional and prompt.” – Rashida Timothy
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY & BRIDAL MAKEUP:
“As a team, they were professional: stayed out of each other’s way and did what they were there to do, they work great together. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. He was very professional. Even before the actual day, they took the time to meet with us and to get to know us and our style, which made our experience even more memorable. Ade did not impose his style, he took our styles and created art. Ade and his team worked so well, you didn’t even know they were there working. They blended so well. An amazing experience. The makeup was flawless of course but it was more than the makeup, it was Gina’s warmth and her personality that made it so easy to relax with her and smile. Dr. G made my day unforgettable: providing me with flawless makeup but more importantly the entire experience before the ceremony, where a bride gets very stressed and confused, with her charming, friendly and calming attitude while doing my makeup, just added to the entire experience which I will never forget. She is amazing at what she does and I would recommend every single girlfriend to her. I felt beautiful, confident and more than satisfied with her work. Most brides know that on your wedding day you are the most stressed about how everything going to turn out. My groom was stuck in traffic and we all were laughing and smiling during makeup preparation. I was the most comfortable in her chair. It was a peaceful time and of course, the makeup was on point.” – Dr. Molesia Perry

BRIDAL MAKEUP:
“Honestly, I never imagined myself to be that beautiful and enjoy the feeling that way.” – Renee O.
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY & BRIDAL MAKEUP:
“Ade & Gina go above and beyond any expectations, you could dream up!! Professional, personable, and prompt!! Their work reflects each couple’s relationship and their diligence towards their craft. Every aspect of our special day was documented and I never felt or noticed the presence of cameras. Gina’s makeup skills are flawless!! As a bride that struggled with acne and hyperpigmentation, finding the right makeup artist was a high priority. Dr. G (Gina) is a licensed physician, so I knew I could trust whatever products she would use on my sensitive skin. After seeing her magic at work for my makeup trial…I WAS SOLD!! The only mistake you could make on your big day is to not book them!!” – Dr. Sade Frazier
EVENT PHOTOGRAPHY:
“We used Ade & Gina Studios for my wife’s 40th birthday, and every aspect of the service was exceptional. Communication prior to the event was impeccable. On the day of the event, punctuality and high level professionalism was on display. It wasn’t just a case of taking pictures. No! I would describe the service and detail as DELIBERATELY CAPTURING THE RIGHT MOMENTS. From politely communicating the right positions or poses, recommending adjustments to clothing, and picking the right locations etc. Everything was done to ensure the perfect shots! When our final pictures were provided, the same professionalism was at display: promptness in delivery, and excellence in service. The pictures were flawless. I would definitely recommend Ade & Gina Studios to everyone I know, and I am rest assured that we will repeat using their service again and again! 100%! Thanks for a great job!
BRIDAL MAKEUP:
“When I looked in the mirror after Dr. G did my makeup, I was delighted. The vision that I pictured came together better than I had ever imagined.” – Dr. Kamaria Blackett-Munir
FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY:
“A beautiful and talented duo who is a pleasure to work with! Ade is quite professional, courteous and patient; [he] gives good direction to get all those great shots. Gina’s makeup doesn’t make you look overdone. She takes good care to get it right. The experience was truly wonderful, of course, the icing on the cake is the canvas we received.” – Candice Blackman
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY:
“Picking a photographer for our wedding was not an easy task. I knew what my visions were but I didn’t know how to convey them in words & I honestly didn’t have the time to figure it all out with everything else we had to get accomplished before the big day. When my then-fiancé told me he has a photographer for our wedding in mind I was happy the search was over but also had my fingers crossed that I wouldn’t have to worry about how our pictures turned out. Ade did an incredible job on our wedding pictures. I love our Indian wedding day with our pictures in a soccer field to our Christian wedding day with our pictures in the chapel to the chandelier hallways & staircases. Every memory captured by Ade was perfect & I was in love. I wish Ade lived in my state (yes he came to Florida to shoot our engagement & wedding pictures) he would get bombarded with all of our life event pictures too! Highly recommended for any event any time!” – Madurvani Jaundoo
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY, DAY AFTER SESSION, & BRIDAL MAKEUP:
“Ade is able to FEEL the vibes of the couple. The romance is shown in his art form. I was amazed at the way we look and it showed through the pictures what Charles & I were feeling: Nothing but LOVE. Gina went above and beyond and it felt more like she was a well-needed lady in waiting than an Artist. My makeup was beautiful and her special touches really meant the world to me during my moments of anxiety. Ade & Gina are nice, professional, and a compliment to each other. They provide feedback & the team is able to create the vision from two wonderful points of view. I loved everything about the photography: the style, the ambiance, the vividness of the outdoor pictures, and the shadows in the pictures taken in the cave. ” – Michelle Vigier
