He was not willing to work with us because he booked another party right after us, this has denied our ability to add more hours or change our time. Our preist changed our time due to an issue, We called our photographer to ask for a time change or add more time for his services but he denied us, He keep saying you only hired me for this time and thats its. Did not consider unexpected time change like this, his contract said we could hire him for extra time and compensate him accordingly, but once again refused us because he booked another party, according to his contract he would make no other reservations for that time and date, yet he booked another party, this was voiding our contract because he booked another party right after ours. He completely did not consider any possible delay we may have had for that day, bad weather, traffic or what not. If any of that had happend we would have lost out on photo time. What photographer books another party without considering potential delay? We needed him for addition time or work with us but he voided our contract by booking another party right after ours and said too bad you should have paid me for more time, he also refused to refund us our deposit after he voided our contract and claimed we canceled or changed time too late and to stop looking for a loop hole he will not refund us, he even stated go get your money from the priest. Wow, how professional. The nerve to even say that we should get our deposit refund from the priest because its his fault! DONT USE THIS UNPROFESSIONAL FRAUD.

Kieffer with Greenkey Photography had done some engagement photos for friends of ours and I was so impressed that when we started looking for a photographer he was the first person I thought of. I called and spoke with him on the phone and was met with a super positive, easy going yet focused and helpful voice and made an appointment to meet with him. Before the meeting I had looked online at other other photographers, but after looking at Greenkey Photography's diverse portfolio on their website I really felt like he was going to be the one for us. The way he sees things and composes photos really spoke to me. We wanted unique with some stylized photos and some regular action photos and group shots. Even before we met I had confidence that he would be able to give that to us. We hit it off right away and I felt like we had known each other for years. If you're spending such an important day which may possibly be hectic and stressful, you need to be able to be comfortable and to hand the reins over to someone you trust. Actually we never even ended up looking at anyone else because I was so impressed with Kieffer all the way around - vision, personality, ideas, organization - just everything. I never do that, I always look at at 3-5 companies for anything I do even if I'm sure I love the first one. My friends and family were stunned because they know how I am with photography and could not believe I was so confident and not worried at all of how things were going to go. That is how much trust I had. This alone helped us enjoy the day so much more. I knew that we were not going to have to worry about anything and I was right! Kieffer was invaluable in basically planning the entire day. He was responsive to all our questions and the day of he was the consummate professional. He took his time to get the shots yet kept moving things along to stay on schedule so we could enjoy spending some time together before the ceremony and reception. My husband had not met Kieffer before the day of our wedding and kept commenting how great he was doing paying attention to every detail. We had fun with him which is important to us too. He let us know he was going to have an assistant with him the day of and Carrie was lovely too. Kieffer and Carrie were up for anything - we even took photos with our dog who is our baby and they turned out to be amazing as well! To get into my dress, we decided I should actually climb into it from the couch because the skirt was so big and I didn't want to mess up my hair. Me being a little crazy I decided I would jump in and he was all for it and got the photos. They also captured key moments of emotion with our family during and after the ceremony that really reminds me of the love and feelings of the day. He said at the beginning that he wanted to create a story of the day. I was not sure if I wanted to do getting ready photos and a few other things, but I'm so glad Kieffer really stressed that because there are some beautiful moments and they would have been lost as we were rushing around if it had not been for him. Also one of the best things I can say is that things do not always go as planned, so you need someone who is flexible and can think on their feet. We were running late because the make-up artist was an hour late so we had to tweak the schedule. I was freaked out about missing photos at the locations we had picked because we had less time, but Kieffer really had it under control. He said let's see we may be able to fit it in. He assured me that I could relax and he would watch the clock and tell me when we would have to decide to cut a location or not. That really made me relaxed and I think the photos turned out better because of it. We did end up cutting a location, but he came up with an alternate location immediately that was right near where we were and some of those photos are our favorites. Well actually all of the photos are our favorites!!! lol! We still have not been able to complete our wedding album as I cannot seem to cut even one out, so it's going to have to be huge :) Also because we started late, I had asked them to stay extra time and they did so which really meant a lot to me and made me want to strangle the make-up artist much less ;) After he sent all the photos I actually requested some extra parameters and he happily obliged. Everybody loved him and I have been told by so many people that they are just blown away by the photos, as were we! He exceeded our expectations and we were very grateful to have him and Carrie with us on our special day! We are both so ecstatic with our entire experience with Greenkey and we will be doing any and all future photo sessions with them!

I can't say enough good things about Greenkey Photography. It's been almost a year since our…read morewedding and I have *not once* thought, "I wish we had done that with the photographs" or "I wish my photos would have such-and-such". I would not change one thing. We worked with Kieffer and he was professional, calming, and inspiring every single time we met. We were on the fence about an engagement photo session. He recommended it so that we would get used to having someone in our faces with a camera. At first, never having worked with a professional photographer, that maybe it was just a nudge to an upsell. But it was included in the package we selected and it really worked!! My camera-shy wife was so much more comfortable on our wedding day because of it. Green Key came up with the theme for our engagement photos and they turned out so well! We still go back and look at the album. Kieffer also suggested making a photo book of our engagement photos with white space and using it as our guest book. It was such a great idea and everyone loved it! The wedding day was unbelievable. He took care of everything imaginable. There were fun pictures that I didn't even notice him taking, and he captured some moments that I will remember forever. Looking back at our photos helped me recapture some things too, because the day does go by so fast! I wanted some funny face pictures with my young nephews (because we always do them at every holiday) and he was totally up for it! Nothing threw him, he got all the pictures of my...difficult...family members, and made it all work. And of course, price. The value was amazing. We compared him with other photographers and the price compared to what we got was substantially different than other photographers. Sometimes you worry about it when you get a good deal but not here. He was genuinely well priced for an amazing talent. I could go on and on about Kieffer from Greenkey Photography. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat.

I knew from the minute I saw Matt's blog that I wanted to use him as our photographer for our wedding. There was just something about his pictures that made me feel good. I know, that sounds cheesy, but it's true. The day of our wedding was amazing. What I really loved about Matt and his assistant, Ernst, was that I don't think I saw him the entire time! He was never in my face or in the way but he managed to capture some of the most amazing moments. We have such great photos, I can't even believe it! Matt is very professional and has such an incredible eye. Even the usual posed shots that everyone hates to take (lol) came out beautifully. My only regret is not sending him a shot list of essential photos and for me being so disorganzied with the timing of everything. Even still, he managed to work with what we gave him and get some great shots. Oh and the Monday after the wedding he put pictures up on facebook so that we and our friends and family could have a sneak peek. I loved that. I can't say enough good things about Matt. I really can't. I would use him again in a heartbeat. If I lived in Chicago I would hire him to take photos for all our major life events. You will not regret hiring him.

First the basics - we looked at a few other photographers and we did not find anyone that compares on cost. It wasn't even close. So it was affordable to work with Andrew, but also very smooth. He met with us in person three times and I am sure would have more had we asked. He was very responsive to emails and never set a limit of the number of contacts, which is something we have heard other vendors do. Andrew is personable, intelligent and very easy to work with. My wife and I also relied heavily on our vendors for advice on how to structure the wedding evening - they are the pros after all - and Andrew was always game for giving us advice on what works best. When we returned from our honeymoon Andrew had setup a Flickr account for us to see all of our photos. The quality is outstanding. The quantity is huge. And he gave us full rights to the photos. We could not have asked for a better experience with Andrew.

We received all our photos within four weeks of our wedding, had full digital rights, and were able to share them with our family and friends while the memories were still fresh. The photos were so great that we opted not to use any of the retouching he had included in our package. Andrew is also extremely pleasant to work with because he has a friendly, low-key personality. We felt like he really understood what we wanted and did not try to "sell" us on anything.

We were already on a tight budget and had limited resources for an extra vendor. I stumbled upon OWM, saw they were reasonably priced and had add-on's to accommodate all our needs. We chose the silver package and added the highlight reel, an additional hour, and 2 physical discs. The cost of all these items together was a fraction of what other companies were charging. The owner Guy was easy to communicate with - I did have to follow up on a few emails during the time we signed our contract to the days before our wedding, but I didn't mind because I prefer to be on top of things and had to do the same with other vendors. Guy also helped us out when our photographer failed to capture images for us. It meant a lot to me and my husband that Guy graciously offered his help and eased our after wedding stress. Christian was our videographer for our wedding day and was so great to work with! He arrived early, was attentive and captured so many beautiful moments of our day. He was very kind and professional. He stayed until our contracted end time and made sure to find me on the dance floor to let me know he was taking off rather than just disappearing. It was great to work with him! Overall, if you are on a budget and want a simple, well constructed video to capture your day, go with Our Wedding Movie. They will not disappoint!

We wanted a photojournalistic style and a few posed family/wedding party pictures using color and black & white shots. We also wanted a photographer who used different lenses and lighting really well because of our outdoor setting. Brian did just this and more. He posed us in front of the bonfire at night, sat us under trees lit with party lights, and used fish-eye/wide angle lenses to gain a different perspective of the whole party. He used all the details the farm had to offer: the porch, the farmhouse, the silo, the lean-to, the wildflowers, the gardens, the bonfire, the lawn, wedding decor, etc. Also, he and his assistant managed to capture some of the sweetest moments that by looking at the candid shot, you can immediately feel the emotion of the moment. We are more than pleased with Brian's work. Planning was efficient and easy! We met with Brian in his studio one time in the Spring and then completed the rest of the planning via email with ease. Timeliness was appreciated! He initiated communication about due payments, planning details, and his ETA on the big day. He and his assistant promptly arrived at the planned time to review the venue which was unfamiliar to him. Brian Morrison is discrete, professional, knowledgeable, efficient, calm, creative, and incredibly reliable. We highly recommend him.
