We honestly can't say enough good things or recommend Echard Wheeler highly enough! Given that my now husband is also a professional photographer, when we got engaged and started to plan our wedding, I can tell you that choosing our photographer was something that was definitely NOT taken lightly! We both knew right away that it had to be Echard, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. From the engagement photos he took to the wedding photos captured on the day of, he absolutely exceeded our expectations and we are forever grateful to be able to re-live those moments & memories through all of these gorgeous images. You can really feel the emotions in the photos he takes, and we love his ability to capture so many of those special and real candid moments as well. Not only is Echard undeniably talented, but he is also incredibly kind, easy-going, and professional- he made us feel so comfortable every step of the way, and he and his wife Leesa (who we were lucky enough to have with us as his amazing second shooter at our wedding!) are truly two of the nicest people you'll ever meet! On our wedding day, Echard and Leesa were there to document every aspect of our big day, from getting ready to the ceremony & reception, and everything in between- they made us feel totally at ease and relaxed, and made the entire process even more fun throughout the entire day, from start to finish! The ability that Echard has to be able to blend in to the background during everything going on (we'd sometimes forget he was even there, that's how good he is) while capturing every single special moment is so impressive and something we really appreciated and love about his style as well! We feel so thankful to have had Echard as our wedding photographer, and we are truly blown away by all of the beautiful images taken, as well as the volume and amount of photos captured- he really goes above and beyond and his work speaks for itself! We are beyond grateful and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Endless thanks to both Echard & Leesa for everything!

Echard was incredible from the start and I can’t imagine having a better set of photos to look back on.

He did our engagement photos and made the whole experience so comfortable and relaxed. The photos turned out so well and it really felt like Echard captured our personalities as opposed to have just a selection of staged photos.

Echard stuck with us through multiple wedding date reschedules and a venue change, continuing to be positive and supportive with each adjustment we had to make.

Echard arrived the day of the wedding ready to roll. He was so easy going and fit right in. We never felt rushed, nor did we feel like we were taking pictures for hours. Echard made sure to get all the shots we asked for and did some choreographing on his own too. The photos from our wedding are truly incredible. You can see the love and laughter in the photos. You can see all the joy that was filling the room that evening. I absolutely love the candid moments and Echard has such a knack for capturing those. Even in the more staged photos, my husband and I look like ourselves and look comfortable and look at ease. We’re not the photo types, so it says a lot about Echard’s approach.

We feel so incredibly grateful for Echard and his talents. We’ll have the best photos to remember all of the details of this day.

Echard is absolutely wonderful. First of all, his experience and reputation in the business is phenomenal. Just look through his website/blog and you’ll find every wedding is stellar and you’ll find every kind of celebration you could dream of and many you can relate to — that’s why I felt comfortable choosing Echard to document our day. My husband and I aren’t that comfortable being photographed but from the start of our engagement session we were totally fine — Echard has a calm demeanor and is very laid back. HOWEVER he is also a true pro and will be able to wrangle your people for portraits on your wedding day; he finds the details lighting etc etc etc that we’d never think of. Somehow he was in the middle of the action all during our wedding day but also blended seamlessly into the landscape. Echard is so kind so talented. Experience unmatched. Hire him you
won’t regret it! I didn’t even want to put our faces and wedding photos on wedding wire so I chose just a few to include that show his creative eye. All the staples and moments posed and candid-Echard finds a way to capture the feeling of the day and get it all. Here is just a couple from our day.
Thank you Echard!!!!!!
