Great Staff!!! Some of the best people I know work here, they always have some kind of show or event going on. Studio time, artist exchange, bar on the Sound Café side, open mic, open jam, movie nights! You name it! They have it! Oh! And a local artist gallery! This place is so cool!

Enlightened studios did the videography and photography for me and my new sister in laws "Double wedding". Everyone was so pleased with the crew! Not only did they travel 2 hours to get to the venue but they all had a very professional and friendly work ethic. They were open to suggestions on what shots we wanted but also didn't hesitate to construct us to get a flattering angle. But what we loved most is that they were really trying to capture true moments not just poses. The videographer was all over the place like a spider monkey getting that "perfect shot" but we didn't even notice him at all. Over all it was such an awesome experience having enlightened studios be apart of our big day I will definitely recommend them to anyone for special occasions.
