Iyrus Weddings Photo & Video gets a rating of 10 out of 10 for our wedding (or 5 out 5 stars, depending on which rating scale one prefers)! Will DeCosta, our photographer, was amazing throughout the entire process.
To begin, his preliminary communication was fast and efficient. He set up times to speak to us initially over the phone and went over the plans he had to offer. He discussed his plans and the way he typically went about doing things. He used his years of experience and expertise to help make suggestions before we even decided to go with his company. He was very friendly and personable. and he did everything he could to accommodate our schedules.
Mr. DeCosta provided quick responses with the packages that Iyrus Weddings photo & Video had to offer; each had everything broken down with detailed descriptions. We had spoken with several other vendors while looking for a photographer in the St. Pete area to compare. The prices of packages were somewhat comparable to others, but his excellent customer service far surpassed others and made this decision very simple. He listened, understood our needs, had quick response times, and really put us first in the entire experience. There are zero regrets!
Once the contract was drawn up, a very user-friendly and secure platform was set up to view and pay amounts due. I believe there were several options for payment methods. We used Venmo, but all payments were quickly reflected on the payment platform where the contract resided. We were able to make payments at our own pace so long as the total amount was paid about a month before the wedding date.
On the day of our wedding, Will was punctual and professional. He took all the of specific photos on our list that we wanted him to capture before, during, and after the ceremony. These included us getting ready before the ceremony, photos with family, first dance, cake cutting, sunset photos, etc. We obviously were not paying attention to our photographer during the ceremony, but I can say that he worked with the utmost proficiency and organization before and after. Not only did he get these requested photos, but he also went above and beyond by capturing things about which we never even considered. He took close-ups of our customized shoes, wedding rings in different positions, table centerpieces, ballroom décor, and even had a great idea for getting pictures with my husband and I along with every guest in attendance, which was absolutely amazing!
I cannot stop looking through all the photos regularly, smiling as I relive this wonderful occasion. Iyrus Weddings Photo & Video provided the ability to do so. We are so thankful to Will for allowing us to have these memories captured in snapshots that we can view and reexperience years to come. Once again, we give the highest rating possible!

Megan Sent on 05/03/2024Highly recommend for videography!
Iyrus absolutely exceeded our expectations with a videographer for our wedding. The team was very easy to work with, and made the absolute perfect wedding video! It had our speeches/vows (the best parts of them) woven into the video and also drone footage which we never even noticed day of. I can't watch it without tearing up! It perfectly captured how we felt the day went. We got a 1 minute instagram reel which we weren't expecting, a 7 minute full wedding video, and then purchased the full ceremony and speeches afterwards. It was great that they kept the film since we decided to buy it later when we saw how good the wedding video turned out. After seeing the completed video, I can't believe I ever questioned having a videographer for my wedding! Our family and friends have also commented on how unique and well put together our video was. They were an affordable option compared to others in the area too. Would absolutely recommend Iyrus to anyone looking for a wedding videographer! -

Will and his team are without a doubt the best in the business. From our first conversation with Will we knew he was the right choice for our wedding. He is extremely responsive and is such a genuine person. He makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and it truly felt like he wasn't just a vendor but a good friend. He gives the perfect amount of guidance to make sure you get great shots - but nothing is ever overly staged. They showed up early and spent time scoping out the venue to make sure we knew all the best photo opportunities. They truly went above and beyond. The final product (both photo and video) absolutely blew us away. Everything is stunning and they did a wonderful job of capturing the emotion of the day through the lens. I cannot recommend Iyrus Weddings enough. -

Unmatched photo & video services
Let me just start off by saying if you have questioned inquiring with Iyrus photos, question no more and book them asap!
Will and his wife Kimmy did our engagement shoot in the Florida keys and our wedding in Saint Petersburg Florida. Despite my husband and I never having done a photoshoot before in our lives they made pure magic happen. He guided us through every step and pose assuring us comfort. We felt like models and come wedding day we already knew how to work with them. This team will not only give you ideas but loves to bounce of your own ideas to make sure you get every shot possibly wanted. Quality of the photos is unmatched! These are photos worthy of being in magazines and will definitely be blown up to hang in our home. Also Kimmy is a total gem! She made sure my hair and dress was always in prime positioning. The sweetest most fun couple to work with hands down! Don’t walk but run to book this team! -

Absolutely amazing experience
You will not go wrong with using Iyrus Weddings. Will and his team tells the story through a lens and videos they produce. I've worked in live events for well over 20 years and when I say I'm impressed by a company doesn't come very often.
Not only are they professional but they are personable too. Customer service is spot on which is something you don't get anymore in this day and age.
Thank you for making our wedding photos and video amazing!!!! -

Kerry Sent on 09/28/2023The best Wedding videography I’ve seen
I found Iyrus Weddings on this site after reviewing many sample from the different companies and I couldn’t be happier with my results. I am a TV News videographer at the Network level so naturally I am very discerning about what I wanted in a wedding video for my daughter. Will and his associates were so professional in how they communicated with me and the other vendors and especially in how they visualized the wedding video. The camera work was spectacular as was the editing. As an editor myself, I’m always striving to let a video piece breathe by weaving sound and music in the right places and letting the visuals tell the story as well as the compelling sound beds. Iyrus Weddings accomplished this beautifully so I was thrilled when they said they were available on the date my daughter chose for her wedding. They communicated with me well returning calls and emails immediately and answering my questions with very specific answers on technical and logistical concerns.
I am so glad I chose Iyrus Weddings and I highly recommend them for any of your visual needs for your special occasion. It really is some of the best money I’ve spent on anything I can think of. -

Highly recommend!!
Our wedding photography/videography turned out exceptional! Will and his partner did an amazing job. His communication was great leading up to the big day. He arrived early to the venue to meet us & to set things up. Him and his partner were beyond easy to work with and super nice. My husband and I couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend booking with them! -

Jamie T. Sent on 08/12/2023EXCELLENT--just hire them! Best decision we made!
If you want to not worry at all about your wedding day pictures coming out fantastic, just hire this company. I can't say enough good things! Will always responded quickly, was patient while I explained my vision for my wedding day pictures, and was just plain fun to be photographed by. My ceremony went a little long and we didn't have too much photo time, but Will was an absolute rockstar using the time efficiently and making sure we got all of our wanted shots in (including organizing family pictures speedily) AND MORE. He also got so many pictures that I didn't even know he was taking, but I'm so glad I now have them! There were so many times I felt like I could just turn my brain off and listen to his prompts (which is all I could ask for on my wedding day with so many questions coming at me as the bride), and they came out MAGICAL. My family and friends all were super impressed when I shared the gallery with them. Professional, prompt, organized energetic, creative, just the best! Grateful for his talent so that I can forever remember the moments of my wedding day! -

Will was absolutely amazing to work with as a photographer for our wedding. When we booked our destination wedding, we were met with kindness and professionalism. Will worked with us to make sure we were all set up, and was always quick to answer questions along the way.
On the day of the wedding, he arrived and was fantastic. He worked well with our entire family, and they had nothing but wonderful things to say about their experience with him, as well. The photos we received where phenomenal, and perfectly captured our day.
We would highly recommend Will and Iyrus Photography to anyone needing to have photos taken in the St. Petersburg area. -

Caitlin Z. Sent on 05/10/2023So glad we hired Iyrus!!
We cannot thank Will and his team at Iyrus Weddings enough for the amazing job they did capturing our wedding day. From start to finish, they were an absolute pleasure to work with. Will's talent and creativity truly shone through in the final product, which was a beautifully shot and edited video that perfectly captured the vibe and emotion of the day. The drone footage was particularly impressive, and added a unique perspective to the video that we wouldn't have otherwise had. Throughout the entire process, Will and his assistant were professional, friendly, and accommodating. They made us feel comfortable and at ease, and were able to capture all the special moments without ever feeling intrusive. Overall, we would absolutely recommend Iyrus Weddings to anyone looking for a talented and professional videographer. Thank you so much, Will, for helping us relive our wedding day in such a beautiful way! -

We hired Iyrus to do our video. We worked with Will. He was quick to respond, did what he promised to do, and gave us a great video! We’re so happy we did it and can look at it for years to come. -

We hired Iyrus to film and create our wedding video and I am so glad we did! He was recommended by our wedding venue - that’s how we found him. Will was excellent with communication via text and email throughout the entire process. Charles was our day of videographer and he was amazing! Both were so personable and friendly and the film is STUNNING! I can’t say enough good things. Over the last year of planning from reading and asking around, one of the biggest regrets former-brides had was not getting a video. That solidified my decision to hire a videographer and I’d recommend Iyrus to anyone in FL! -
