» Our company, Three Generation Design and Landscaping, hired the services of Adept Studios. Brian Immke met us at one of our recently completed landscape projects and immediately took charge whereas he knew exactly how to get the most out of the finished job in terms of photographing and capturing the beauty in a way only a professional can accomplish. In addition, he was most patient with us as we asked him multiple questions on being sure he captured all aspects of our job.

The photos were eventually incorporated into a mass mailing piece and we are please to report we received a very positive response. In closing, we fully plan on using Adept Studios services in the future and would surely recommend them if asked.

Thank you.....Debra and Richard Obletz

» Brian,

Great job on the Simply Fit bottles! Our client is very happy with the outcome and I appreciate your team working with us to get exactly what we needed and being able to get it back to us so quickly! Looking forward to working with your team again in the very near future.

» Adept Studios was quick to handle my job, as I had a tight deadline. They were professional, courteous and got the shot I was looking for. Their new studio is amazing. I cannot imagine there is anything they can’t handle.

commercial photography fort lauderdale » Wow!!! I love it. You da man! (as we say in the hood). I'm looking forward to a great, long term relationship. The new pictures are working great. We just ran a few test products this past week to get a clear understanding of our new systems. We have been able to command a higher dollar value per item, which I attribute to your wonderful work. The pictures will indeed pay for themselves.

Todd, "Market Maker Man"

» Again, I want you to know how thrilled we were with the photos. We are definitely a work in progress.

Vicki Miller, Stitch, Miami, Florida

Wedding Photography References

» WOW! The pictures are beautiful. Thank you so much for your amazing work. I wanted to be able to look at our wedding pictures and be able to re-live our day...you made this possible. The slide show brought tears to our eyes; I love how you captured everyone's emotions. The pictures of our wedding are so important, especially with Neil fighting his battle with cancer. I can't express how much this means to me; thank you, thank you, thank you!

Tammy and Neil Young

» Choosing the right photography studio that could transform our very specific vision and style to both print and film was a concern for my wife [now] and me. After an in-person interview with Brian Immke at Adept Studios and a tour of their facility, it was clear a cohesive match was present which inspired us to secure our wedding's photo shoot with him.

Brian demonstrated a significant competency in his expertise during our entire celebration. He and his team were well coordinated and rarely noticed by guests as they inconspicuously captured moments throughout the evening.

Adept Studios is a well disciplined, organized and professional company, and should be considered by those who demand the same quality on their special day.

Michael & Rachel Labate

» The photography and design within both wedding albums is phenomenal. I have many friends that have had five star weddings with top photographers, and I can tell you that the quality is unsurpassed While I know I am a little biased, I must say that I am very picky and feel the work completely exceeded our expectations...

I couldn't speak more highly about Adept Studios and the photographic team, lead by Brian Immke If you ever need a great photography company, I couldn't recommend Adept Studios more.

Juliette & Steven Price

» Brian & Christy,

Karlos & I wanted to say thank you for making our big day run so smoothly. We are so excited to see all of the great pictures that you took. You both were great and really put us both at ease during a pretty stressful time. Thanks again & keep up the great work!

Emmi & Karlos

» Danny, I just want to give a world of thanks from both Kris and I for all of the beautiful photos you took of our wedding. You captured every moment and the feel of the whole wedding. Everyone was blown away by your photos! Especially all of the beach shots! We hope you had as good a time as our guests. It was such a pleasure working with you and hopefully our paths will cross again someday - hopefully for another photo shoot!

Thanks for everything! Vanessa & Kris

» I just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know how much I enjoyed viewing the pictures on the CD that you sent to Vanessa and Kris. The photos were amazing and now I know why Vanessa was so set on choosing you as the photographer for her special day.

Yolanda Aviles (Vanessa's mom)

» Danny, I received the pictures today.....and I was absolutely stunned. They are absolutely beautiful, and Brian captured the exact mood of the wedding. I was pleased how many moments they brought back to me. You all were so much fun, and a great addition to the wedding. I am pleased at how many things you caught when I didn't even know you were there. Thank you all for coming, and for the wonderful job. Please use any of this email as accolades on your website, and feel free to refer me to anyone who asks for a referral.

Thanks, Adrienne and Eric Fluitt

» Brian, I understand that referrals are the best compliment that we can pay you; rest assured that we will refer you to anyone and everyone that crosses our paths that is in need of photography services. You did an absolutely amazing job with our engagement and wedding photos. We gave our guests CDs as wedding favors and used several of our engagement photos as the CD covers - every single guest (about 150) complimented the photography! Everyone just loved the pictures you took. Our wedding photos turned out just as extraordinary - we really appreciated your style of photography and the casual, yet professional way you worked on our big day. We were very comfortable with you and your team and believe that this allowed you to get the most candid and honest photos possible of everyone! As we share our photos with friends and family, they all comment on how great a job you did and indicate that they hope you are still available when they need a photographer! Thank you again for the excellent job you did with our photos. Please do not hesitate to use us as a reference, interested parties can feel free to call us day or night!
PS - It was also very nice to receive all of our photos so quickly after the wedding, along with our rights to reproduce - as a photographer, I am sure you know this is priceless!
Sincerely, Rachel & Marc Cunningham

» Dear Danny

February 26th was a day to remember. Thanks to you, I have wonderful pictures that won't ever let me forget what a great time I had with family, friends and my new husband. Between the raindrops you still managed to capture all the shots I could have wanted outdoors. You have the gift, a great eye that finds all the right backdrops, lighting, angles and emotions. We had a blast watching the video you did - you did a great job editing and the music backgrounds were awesome. I couldn't have found a friendlier or more enthusiastic group of people to work with. Thanks again for everything!! You did an awesome job.

Dawn & Chris Botto, Miami FL

» Danny, I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how much Lizabeth and I appreciated all of your hard work at our wedding on Fisher Island. You are a true professional who knows how to handle the situation with enthusiasm and energy. You made us both feel very comfortable during the shooting. You were everything we had hoped for and more.

Tony and Lizabeth - Cincinnati, OH

» Dear Brian & Christy, You guys are the BEST! When we met both of you, you were so friendly that we felt at ease and comfortable right away. And before we new it we wanted to start hanging out as friends. You are both great people, and both have been given a wonderful gift and should be thankful for that everyday. We had an awesome time at the beach taking all the engagement photos, we felt like models. And from the looks of our pictures we were damn good models! All though the wedding day wasn't a perfect one, the pictures certainly were!!! Our friends and family still ask who took these pictures and we gladly tell them and hand them a card! We will definitely keep in touch with you guys. And every time we see the pictures we will think of you. Keep up the GREAT work! we will continue to tell our friends about you guys. And when ever we need a photographer in the future we won't hesitate to call YOU!

Tina & Brian, Fort Lauderdale FL

» Hi, Brian. The wedding photos are incredible!! Thank you so much. We are having such a good time picking out ones to send to family and friends. There are so many great ones. Many thanks again to you and Christy! You were wonderful to work with and did exceptional work. Please let us know if you ever need us to recommend you to anyone or give a testimonial of your work. We'd be glad to tell anyone how great you were!!

Devon Tehrani, Fort Lauderdale FL

» Brian. At first Mac and I were shocked. We both look so great and for me- I really think I look beautiful in the pictures. You did an amazing job. I've sent the link to my family and they just can't believe it. They are in awe. The photos are amazing and you really are talented. I look at them and I feel so proud of what I see. Thank you - there really are no words to tell you how grateful I am. I can't wait to see the CD and begin to print them. I love the black and whites and the one in the gazebo is phenomenal. You rock! You are the best! Really.

Mac and Mikki, Miami FL

» Danny, my wedding day was the best day of my life. Danny and his wife Kim were able to capture it in an amazing fashion. Every shot taken was either perfectly posed or perfectly candid. Danny and his entire crew were extremely professional and easy to work with. They all did a superb job. My pictures are awesome and my video is spectacular. Thank you so much Danny for giving me exactly what I wanted, a nontraditional wedding album and video that will provide me with everlasting and vivid memories of my very special day.

Krista and Dominic DeMarco Miami FL

» Danny and Kim were a joy to have work at my wedding. I was so nervous, only finding them from a general search online, but it turned out better than I even expected. Danny and Kim are very professional and always tried to accommodate my family and me. Danny took time to get to know my husband, myself, and my family in order to capture the whole feel of the wedding through the photographs and video. He was everywhere I asked him to be and made sure that everyone felt comfortable in every situation. Kim and Danny were an absolute pleasure!

Christina and Domenico LaGrasta, Naples FL

» We are more than pleased to write a wonderful testimony for Danny. Naturally, we were so nervous about the results of our pictures. It is the only memories we will have to cherish. Danny made us calm and confident that everything will be ok. He was right.

Danny's photography skills were demonstrated in the highest levels of professionalism. The color, photo selections, editing, and photo styles were amazing. His eye for the camera and feel for the moment, make looking at his pictures feel like your reliving the moment.

Not only were Danny's professional skills demonstrated, but his interpersonal skills meshed warmly with our guests. He made sure he listened to our needs and respected the images of the guests. Danny's ability to photograph what we wanted came without question. As well, his advice and opinion further enhanced the value of the wedding album.

Most importantly to us, we found Danny's passion for photography quite pleasantly surprising. After interviewing many other photographers, we found that many do it for their "job" and not as their passion. We found that to be a big difference. Danny does it for the passion. It was worth every dime.

We highly recommend Danny Steyn for anyone needing a professional passionate photographer for their wedding. Larry and Ivonne Morales, Fort Lauderdale, FL

» Danny, we never got to thank you for the photos you took. I've been very behind on the "thank you's" to everyone. They are a work of art! They are fabulous and the whole family has been enjoying looking through the albums many many times over. You really captured the spirit of the day and everyone's happiness. You and your wife both did a stunning job. Thank you both. Hopefully we can stay in touch. We think you guys are a great couple and we are glad to have met you. Wishing you both all the best,

Madelin and JP DeWet Steyn, Miami FL

» Danny, Thank you for making our day so special. The photos are awesome and everybody loves them. Thank you for EVERYTHING.

Peggy and Jens Hermann, Germany.

» Danny - Mark and I want to thank you and Kim from the bottom of our hearts, for the beautiful job you did. We had so many compliments on your enthusiastic manner and professionalism. After seeing these proofs I know you have captured ever moment of our special day! They are absolutely beautiful and you have captured every moment of our special day. Our wedding memories will be with us forever because of your pictures. Carie and Mark Godfrey, Fort Lauderdale FL

» Danny, You are a star. Just came home from Cat Island and found your photo album!!!! It is wonderful and I am sending it around the world. Especially my parents will be so happy to get to see the bride and groom amidst their friends!!!! I didn't expect such a wonderful "teaser", thank you so much, Freddy and I browsed through it, so much fun!!! The colors are so beautiful!!! Big Kiss to the best photographer ever!!!

Freddy and Tina - Nassau, Bahamas

» Danny, The pictures are beautiful. You captured everyone at their best. Johanna and I are very thankful that we had you at our wedding. Someday I hope we meet again. Hope you are well and smiling as usual.

Josh and Johanna - The Woodlands, TX

Thank you so much again we couldn't of wished for a better photographer.

» Brian Immke,

I wanted to thank you for everything. The photo you shot of the group is excellent – we also had a hard time choosing the best photo since there were so many good ones to choose from. Although I was not present at the shoot, I understand that everything was done in a timely and very professional manner, and that it was a pleasant experience for all those involved. I want to thank you again for the excellent photo we will use over and over again!

Joanne Caballero, COFFEY BURLINGTON

» Working with Brian is amazing. His professionalism and creativity were key in coming up with ideas to make our couples shoot something truly memorable and which we are really proud of. Christy did a wonderful job with the make-up and hair as well. The photo finals were absolutely spectacular and we definitely look forward to doing more shoots in the future with Brian / Adept Studios.

George & Yvonne Levy

Thanks for doing such a great job on our photo shoot at C.B. Smith Park. I know it was difficult to have two little ones who weren't fully cooperative. Thanks for your patience!

Sincerely, Tara Alred

» Kim:

Thanks! Please tell Brian we were very excited about the pictures. He did a great job and was very, very easy to work with. I know that my Florida family will be anxious to recommend your company and especially Brian to anyone looking for a photographer.

Thanks again for everything!

» Victoria,

First I would like to say thank you so much I love the pictures and the book. My husband was not only shocked but speechless, he knows I usually run from the camera. The first thing out of his mouth after being speechless was exactly what you said...who took these a guy or a girl! It was so funny he actually was upset because I said not to put me on the website. He said I looked hot. Everyone I have shown so far thinks they are amazing. My friend who was going to come with me now can't wait to sign up for hers! Thank you again! I will be telling everyone they need to come see you and have awesome pics done!

Paula Ballard

» Hi Danny,

Thank you for the opportunity to work with your studio. I had a blast shooting with Victoria! Victoria is definitely very talented, wonderful and fun to work with. In addition, I truly appreciate Victoria's ability to pick out awesome sample pictures for our photo shoot. Victoria did an amazing job working with me. I was so nervous and anxious for my session but Victoria was patient, calming, and I can never thank her enough for posing with me next to her camera. My entire experience with Victoria was excellent and I would definitely shoot with her again. Needless to say, I love working with you guys and thank you all so much for my time with you. My husband and I love my pictures!

Once again, thanks a million and I definitely recommend your studio, especially to anyone who can have a chance to work with Victoria. She is amazing. Thank you Victoria!

Best wishes - Mina Williams Ontario, California

My name is Laura Barroso. I had a Photo shoot with Victoria this past weekend and I just wanted to tell you what an awesome job she did. Your company is very professional, and I felt very comfortable. I would definitely like to go back one day for another shoot and hopefully meet you and get to work with you also.

Have a nice day!

» Danny, I had a feeling that within the first few moments of speaking with both you and Kim that this was going to be an incredible experience. As new to this as I was, both of you made me feel completely at ease in front of, as well as behind the camera. You were completely professional, courteous, and patient, and I am so pleased with the pictures. Thank you for having so much faith in me.... Remember that you will always be my first photographer!

You are truly talented.

Letters of Appreciation - How to Become a Professional Photographer

Hey Danny,

It was very cool for you to take your valuable time to help a fellow photographer. Your kindness is probably one of the reasons you have such a successful business. As a Nikon man already and the image quality it looks like the D2x is my camera of choice. I'll share your link with all my friends in Florida and Chicago. If there's any way I could help you let me know.

Thanks again,

Marco

Hi how are you!

I was browsing your site and I am so impressed with the professionalism of your image and also your work. I am a photographer myself and I am located in Tallahassee. I see that you are firmly established and I hope someday to get my operations to a point where we can be as multi-faceted as yours is. You offer all sorts of photography and I hope my organization can get to that point eventually.

I work in an area where the business is heavily dependent on college students and right now business is slow b/c students are out of town. There a lot of amateurs here who would like to model, but they're usually broke. We are trying to branch out into family portraits, but it hasn't been easy since we are not from here originally. I just wanted to tell you your site is awesome.

Thank you,

Carter - www.brownjonesphotography.com

Dear Danny:

First of, let me say that you have produced a lot of stunning images over the years. I just discovered your website by accident and even though I have not seen all pictures, I have to tip my hat. Wonderful photographs to say the least. One of the articles especially caught me eye: How to become a professional photographer.
