I cannot recommend Ralph as a photographer due to his complete lack of communication with my fiance and I for the past month. We met with Ralph at the end of June for dinner and to review his work in consideration for our wedding. During dinner he was engaging, upbeat, and he seemed very interested in working with us as we were with him. We left that dinner saying that we would be in touch soon, at that point we were really excited about hiring him as our photographer but we just wanted to review the budget. I emailed Ralph that night after we arrived home from dinner, asked him to be our photographer and expressed how happy and excited we were to work with him on our special day. Despite our enthusiasm, which I thought was mutual, I never heard from Ralph again, it has been nearly a month since our dinner and he never responded. My fiance and I both emailed him, called his DC and Cape phone #'s multiple times leaving messages each time, and I even facebooked him since he seemed to be updating his page, but he has never responded to any of our messages and we're really disappointed in this behavior, it is incredibly unprofessional. I'm praying that he is okay and nothing has happened to him or his family, but at the same time his behavior is almost inexcusable because he could atleast drop a one line email to inform us of whats going on and why he hasn't been in contact. To those who are considering working wth Ralph, I advise you to talk about this with him as we are not the first couple to experience this communication issue with him - read some of his reviews from 2012 and 2011 and you will see that others have experienced similar problems and even threatened legal action to get their photos. read more
