Rodney and his Team Are Amazing Photographers!

My husband and I used Rodney Bailey Photojournalism for both our engagement photos and our wedding day, and were over the moon with Rodney and his team on both occasions. Rodney is an expert at styled photographs as well as candid shots--I felt just as beautiful when Rodney posed us as in the unposed photos that Rodney took of us mingling with our guests. I feel like he really captured the essence of the day, and gave us many beautiful memories to look back on for years to come. I could not recommend Rodney Bailey more highly.

Amazing Team!

**Edit: We were married 9/12/20, not 12/9/20** Darcy has been incredible since Day 1. I was completely clueless, and she not only helped me with the photography aspect, but also helped me by suggesting other vendors for our wedding. She was a tremendous help throughout the entire process. Always following up on emails and readily available to help me over the phone as well.
Our lead photographer was Tabatha, and she was absolutely amazing! From the moment I met her in our hotel, she was very warm and had an inviting personality. I felt so at ease with her, and I don't like being in front of a camera. Tabatha made sure we got all of our after-ceremony pics at the altar with our immediate family, and there were a lot of shots that we wanted! Syed was equally incredible and helped to make sure everything looked right for our poses... I can't wait to see the results! The Rodney Bailey team has exceeded my expectations, and look forward to working with them in the future. I would highly recommend them to anyone that is looking for a photographer!

Excellence

Rodney was so, so great! Can't say it enough. I would 100% recommend him to friends, family, random people on the street. Without seeing the photos yet, I can say that Rodney was extremely professional, handled large groups of people well (not easy!), kept things moving but stayed attentive and flexible, and had an overall poised and calm demeanor. These are all things a bride could ever want from her photographer on her wedding day!! He was such a pleasure to work with beginning to end.
