When it comes to photographers, what separates the best from the rest is not technology and how…read moremany megapixels his camera can shoot. Rather, it's more about a keen eye, a creative mind, and the ability to understand how to please the client. That was my experience with Bruce last year at my friend's wedding and reception in Florence, OR. I saw him at work and I saw the pictures he took. Let me tell you, Bruce did an awesome job!. His pictures tell the story of a man and woman in love and how their families and friends came together to celebrate! Sure, there were a few posed pictures (all wedding have those) but I would say most of the time he was bouncing around getting the action as it was happening. Even have time to eat some good food too! I believe what impressed me the most was the fact that Bruce is friendly and very accommodating. It's the bride and groom's big day and it was great to see Bruce do what they wanted. Surely he had the bride and groom's best interest and their agenda in mind. I like that. It's my pleasure to highly recommend Bruce Berg Photography!

My youngest sister had her senior pictures taken by Bruce at Bruce Berg Photography. The whole…read moreexperience was fun and special for all of us who took part in it, and we were floored with the quality of the resulting products. Having initially met with a female employee who helped her describe her creative likes and dislikes, interests and personality, my sis was able to give her opinions about the type and style of photos and photo session she wanted. There were certainly lots of choices, styles and options available! Amazingly, Bruce was able to create and capture wonderful pictures of a teenager who dislikes being subjected to family photo sessions, and often refuses to smile or even look remotely engaged or approachable for the camera. The man is talented (and great with surly teens, apparently!). My sis is a photographer herself, and she really liked "talking shop" with Bruce during her session. I helped plan my sister's outfits, makeup and hair styling as well as offering my opinion with mom about which photos should be selected for the final prints. The difference in the experience between my senior photos and my sister's was significant. Bruce's business catered to making my sis feel like a mini-celebrity. Small details like a sign on the dressing room door with her name on it, a small basket of wardrobe fixers, bottled water, and extras were waiting her in the dressing room. Having an indoor studio with lots of decor ideas, and having Bruce take some lovely outdoor photos in some really cool scenery/backdrops was unexpected and fun. The decision-making was the toughest element of the whole process. The screening room was a great place to look at all the photos, and the woman who assisted us was patient, friendly and very nice, considering it took us awhile to reach a decision. Yes, the photos and packages are pricey, but the quality of the photos and the whole experience was priceless.
