    Amazing overseas pre wedding shoot and wedding day experience

    We engaged Joe and Raine as our photographer and makeup artist for our overseas pre-wedding shoot in Italy, as well as for our wedding day, and would highly recommend them! We shortlisted Acapella as our preferred style after reviewing several popular portfolios online. After meeting Joe in person, we were convinced by his passion and dedication to getting the best shots even in challenging weather conditions. Throughout the shoots, Joe and Raine (as well as Marcus for our actual day) were very professional, hardworking and friendly while guiding us on how to pose, and made us feel very comfortable with their constant jokes. We also appreciate that they rushed out the photo album, montage and canvases in time for our wedding day despite the short leadtime. We would definitely recommend Acapella if you are looking for a high quality, trustworthy and dedicated team for your wedding photography.

    always enthusiastic, passionate and dramatic

    Joe's photos are just one of a kind. His prewedding photos are always a piece of art, love the veil, love the feel, his trademark style. On the wedding day, Joe will always pack a thousand and one jokes with him, ensuring that his couples will always be happy in his photos. With Joe around, a wedding will never fail to be fun! Kudos to Joe and Marcus from Acapella Photography~

    The literal definition of Awesome (:

    My husband-to-be (then) left me with a huge responsibility to source out for a pre-wedding photographer who was worth every single cent that we were going to invest in the pictures that we could look back in the future and still smile at. I started searching high and low on the internet for a good few days. Met up with a few photographers, and was shown their portfolios. Literally, none of their works caught our attention. We started getting pretty annoyed at the fact that we still didn't manage to find a very good one yet. And it was just then, that I came across Acapella Photography's website. We could see the difference between other photos that we were shown elsewhere, and those on Acapella's website. It was then that my husband and I decided that we would wanna meet up with the person behind those pictures! I texted Joe from Acapella, and got a prompt reply to my texts. He took the initiative to answer my list of questions even before we met, and that itself impressed me. We fixed a date for us to go down to his office to have a look at his portfolio. And true enough, the man behind those lenses, was a truly dedicated man. He gave us such good vibes that we didn't have to worry about anything when it came to how our photos would turn out after the shoot. He showed us a wide range of his work from the past. It was really mind-blowing! We knew at that very moment that we wanted to engage him for our pre-wedding photoshoot. The very next day, I texted him telling him that we would like to go ahead with the shoot. We met up a few times after the first meeting and discussed how the entire trip was going to be. One more thing that I need to mention is that, every single photographer that we met prior to Joe, was not ready to explore other destinations than the usual ones like the Eiffel Tower and so on. But when we told Joe that we had new destinations that we wanted to explore and get our photos taken at, he was more than willing to go ahead with us. That , was also something very commendable. We knew that we were going to have a great time with this cool guy overseas, with no worries at all! We met up in Portugal on the 7th of August 2015 and though he was suffering from gout at that point of time, he never let it affect his level of professionalism at all! He was still being such a great sport and fully utilised every opportunity that we had for taking great photos! After taking BEAUTIFUL pictures in Portugal, all of us flew to Croatia for our second shoot. He was a great person to bunk in with in the same apartment ever since the 7th of August, all the way up to the 18th of August. We could joke over almost everything, and could talk to each other as though we've been friends for over ten years, This clearly proves that Joe, made us feel very comfortable with him and never gave us a chance to worry about how the photos were going to turn out. After the entire trip, we headed in our own ways, and were looking forward to the day that we could collect our album. Joe took the extra initiative to text us to remind us to select the photos that we wanted for him to edit. And finally, the day came for us to collect the album! It was just too gorgeous! Honestly, words can't express how beautiful the pictures turned out to be. And the credits will definitely have to go to Joe from Acapella Photography. Anyone reading this review right now, and still have yet to finalise a pre-wedding photographer, look no further. Joe did a great job in my case, and i'm sure he'd do the same for you guys as well. A great travel-kaki, housemate, and most importanty, AN AWESOME PHOTOGRAPHER!

    Nothing but praises for Joe!!

    My fiancé and I are very glad that we went with Joe to take our pre wedding photos in Sept 2016. We met a few photographers but none came close to him. We chose him as he was easy to talk to and we were impressed with his work. Not only is he passionate about what he does, the level of service he renders is unparalleled. At first we thought it would be awkward posing for the camera but we had so much fun together that it all felt very comfortable and natural!! He and our lovely make up artist, Cherry Au (Autelier Makeup) created so many unforgettable memories for us during the trip. We feel very fortunate to have met them at the first stop of our matrimonial journey. :) If you are looking for a photographer who is warm-hearted, friendly, patient, knows how to have fun, as well as someone who has extensive experience and intimate knowledge of photography, Joe will be the perfect choice!
