While wedding planning I had major reservations about paying so much money for a photographer. All of the recommended options seemed pricey to me! However, I was constantly reminded that a quality photographer is worth the investment and you can skimp on things in other areas (such as favors, napkins, etc...). We had a sneak peak of our photos within days after our wedding and received the whole gallery a short week later. Wow! My qualms about money were squashed --- our photos are priceless and the perfect collection of memories from the best day of my life. With such great photos my only issue now is figuring out which ones I want to hang. I highly recommend Holly Birch Photography. She is easy to communicate with and great at what she does.

Working with Chad Swinford Photography was an absolute win for me as a marketing agency owner…read more I hired him to handle brand photography and b-roll for Limitless Woodworking during a tight launch window. Even with a compressed timeline, he took the time to understand the heart behind the brand and what we were trying to communicate. He understood the assignment and delivered. From the first conversation through post-production, the experience felt intentional and white-glove. I'm very type-A and strategic by nature, and Chad balanced that beautifully with his creative perspective. He never made the process feel rushed or stressful, and my clients genuinely enjoyed working with him. It's rare to find someone who cares equally about the final product and the client experience. Chad does both exceptionally well. He captured the images and behind-the-scenes woodshop footage we needed to tell their story and connect with their audience. Getting clients comfortable on camera is not always easy, but he created an environment that made it feel natural and effortless. If you are looking for a photographer or videographer who combines professionalism, creativity, and care, I highly recommend Chad Swinford Photography.

We could not have asked for a better photographer than Laura. Laura is the total package--her…read morecharisma, keen eye, and people-skills made our entire wedding party and guests feel simultaneously at ease and energized. Her tips and tricks for us were so helpful ("don't lock your knees at the altar, or you might pass out!), and her one-on-one care for use was incredible (she brought a beautiful "unplugged wedding" sign just for us). She spent hours with us brainstorming what types of pictures we wanted and asked us key questions about our photography needs that we never would have imagined would be so critical. She was sensitive, detail-oriented, and wonderfully humorous. Even in the midst of a pretty powerful summer thunderstorm, she was out with us taking pictures that we would have never captured if not for her tenacity in the field. Truly, we could not have asked for a higher quality professional--our photos are PERFECT and everything we've dreamt of. We also consider Laura a friend--she is down-to-earth and approachable, and we truly clicked together from the beginning. Her incredible skills, wonderful professionalism, and awesome personality made her our dream-wedding photographer. Thank you, Laura, for simply being the best!
