Thank you, Brad!

Brad is an amazing photographer! He photographed our wedding and not only took amazing shots, but helped create an amazing experience. He is so personable that we had several guests come up to us during the reception and ask if he was our personal friend. He has a great eye and was able to come up with ideas for fun and unique shots on the fly. He also did a great job of keeping everyone organized, without barking orders. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. Thanks again, Brad!

Amazing photos and so fun to work with!

We had a great experience working with Brad. He was very professional, showed up for the event well prepared (set up a phone call ahead of time, came the day before to see the lighting, and had us prepare a shot list so we were sure that we got all of the group shots we wanted). He was so much fun to work with and all of our guests loved taking pictures with him. Beyond that, the photos were amazing. They had all the fall colors we were hoping for and he did a perfect job capturing the event!
