He knew based on her reviews and their initial communications, that she would be incredible. And she was nothing short of incredible. I'm personally uncomfortable with staged photos, but she made me feel at ease. She's very personable and the process was extremely easy and laid back. And the photos.... They speak for themselves. We are so thrilled with how they came out. The sneak peek was out very quickly thereafter and we even received our pictures earlier than we anticipated. They are PERFECT. We absolutely love them and could not recommend Hayley more!!!

We were incredibly lucky to have Jacalyn as our wedding photographer this year! On a hectic and…read moreemotional day, Jacalyn was organized and composed. She ensured we got the photos we had previously discussed together, and guided us in making the best decisions to ensure our photos turned out amazing. Jacalyn nailed it - she captured so many genuine moments throughout Sonnenberg Gardens perfectly. From candid shots that made us relive our walk down the aisle, to posed portraits, each photo felt meaningful. It was almost impossible to choose favorites when it came time to display them on our walls! If you're searching for a creative wedding photographer who will deliver exceptional photos and will add an aura of calm to your day, look no further. We highly recommend Jacalyn--you won't regret it!

Let me start by saying if you need a sign to book Loraleah and Courtney Geist for your wedding…read more. this is your sign BOOK THEM. My wife and I got married in the Florida Keys and they traveled down to shoot our wedding for us. They are an absolute killer duo. To start, they were both amazing to work with, super easy to contact, so dang friendly and welcoming. I couldn't think of two better people to capture our big day. Photo and video were such a big thing for us on our wedding day, and even though we've seen so much of their work and loved it, they legit blew us away with their talent and expertise. They kept the energy so light and fun during our newlywed photos after a high stress few hours prior. They put on some of our favorite music so we could feel ourselves and loosen up during our photos. They are also both super LGBT friendly. My wife and I were super worried about who we were going to book since we are gay and we wanted to be comfortable. They were an instant vibe, sooo friendly, supportive, gay friendly and never made us feel weird for a single second (which is huge when you're being photographed)!!! They were there for us through the whole planning process to look out for us and lead us in the right direction with our timeline, etc. The ALSO partied harddddddd with us on the dance floor and made sure to capture the sickest dance floor shots for us which was so important for us to hold onto so we could look back on. Don't skimp out on cheap photography and videography, you will regret it!!! Spend the money and book these two because they are unreal!!!

Does not work well with military or COVID. My husband is…read moremilitary and due to COVID his training was pushed back and he had orders to not leave the state (Ohio residents), I was sent home from work so we couldn't really even afford a wedding anymore. The DJ, Bakery, etc all cancelled and refunded due to force majeure/act of god because they could not keep their half of the contract or force us to have a gathering during these times. Very long story short, we had discussed this with the photographer through everything going on was rudely told to sign a cancellation contract so got ADVICE from a local lawyer that was nice to write up a letter. The way it's going, basically unless we go to NY to further pursue this our $500 was worth a few emails because somehow getting our money back would enrich us...? Makes me never want to deal with photographers again

Hiring Bound and Branch to photograph our wedding was one of the biggest regrets of our planning…read moreprocess. We chose their 8-hour package specifically because it included two photographers--an important detail for us, as we had a large wedding party and a sprawling venue. We wanted to ensure that all the key moments would be captured from multiple perspectives. We reached out several times before the wedding--both through their portal and via text--to try and get the names of our assigned photographers (we had a friendship bracelet seating chart and wanted to represent them!), but we never received a response. We also shared a Pinterest board to help convey the vibe we were going for--candids, black-and-white shots, editorial portraits, etc. Unfortunately, this was completely disregarded. Then came the wedding day: just as photography coverage was supposed to begin, we were informed that only one photographer would be coming. The second had apparently tested positive for COVID. We asked for proof due to a COVID clause in the contract, and the entire situation quickly soured. After the wedding, we requested a 25% refund--just for the fact that half the expected photo team didn't show up. Their response was extremely unprofessional and defensive. They explained that they don't charge for a second photographer and that their pricing is based on just one. This felt misleading--nowhere in the initial booking process was that clear, and it certainly wasn't communicated that the second photographer was essentially a "bonus" and not part of the paid service. Worse, the owner made comments like: "If you're holding me to contract standards, then I'll only deliver 350-450 photos, and any extras will cost $8 each." I was stunned. After such a disappointing experience, this felt like a threat disguised as customer service. I told them to keep the money, clearly they needed it more than I did. When we finally received the gallery, the disappointment deepened. The photos lacked the vibe we hoped for--no black and whites, very few candids, nothing artistic or emotionally evocative. We didn't even get one usable photo of our entire wedding party. Family photos were poorly composed, some with eyes closed, and important shot list items were missed completely--because, as we later learned, the photographer who showed up had never been given the list. Communication between the owners and their photographer was clearly non-existent. This was the biggest day of my life--one of the very few times I'll ever need a professional photographer to truly capture the moment. And yet, I didn't even have a single photo that felt special enough to use on our thank-you cards. That's something you can't get back, and the lack of accountability from the company made it worse. To top it off, when my best friend left a negative review based on everything we'd been through, the owner texted me privately--offering $400 to have the review taken down. That amount, ironically, is what we were told a second photographer costs them... so why wasn't this offered upfront as a refund when we asked in good faith? This experience was a painful letdown, and I would not recommend Bound and Branch to anyone looking for professionalism, communication, or any sense of accountability on one of the most important days of their life.
