The Adams photography team is truly the most incredible photography team in the area and we were so beyond happy to get to work with them. Josh, Alexa and Liz are the most warm and truly kind people. They were so patient with us and helped us in more ways than just capturing our most special day. It was such a blessing to have them along for the ride with us and they truly cared about us and made our wedding feel special. Not only is their team amazing but the quality of work they produced from our day are photos that we will forever cherish. Our hearts are just so full after working with them and could not recommend them more!
Where do we even begin writing this review? Josh and Alexa and the entire Adams Photography team are literally the best photographers in the world. Stop what you are doing and book them right now! Josh and Alexa's style is clean, bright, and truly timeless photos that you will cherish for a lifetime.
Josh and Alexa are the most professional, friendly, fun, and truly a JOY to work with. When you think about the vendor you are literally going to spend every minute with during the best day of your life you want these two by your side. It's even more special that Alexa can spend the morning with the girls and Josh can be with the guys so no special moment is missed. They make you feel so comfortable and keep you on track during the day. I felt so at ease knowing they were there. They also got our previews to us in less than 48 hours and I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that there are so many more to come.. they are literally perfect!
We also inquired about BTS content and their associate Liz DELIVERED! It truly captured our day in the most special way. We were speechless when we watched the reel she created for us!
Hiring Adams Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! THANK YOU!
They are simply AMAZING! We don’t even know where to begin to tell you how wonderful they are. Adams Photography makes the wedding process so easy and stress-free!! From deciding what photography package is best for our day to going above and beyond throughout the entire process, Josh and Alexa did more than we could ever ask for. They are both so attentive to what you want, and will talk with you through how to best capture all your details! We knew from the moment we booked them, we would have nothing to stress over during our wedding day. Their calming, professional and confident nature is exactly what we needed for our day. Josh and Alexa are so organized, and didn’t miss one thing on our list of “must-haves.” They did so much more than just take photos—they helped the day run so smooth, and they made sure we were getting everything we wanted out of the day since it flies by!! We received so many compliments from our guests about how wonderful they were throughout our day, and we are still receiving compliments about them!! We can’t thank them enough for everything, especially the gorgeous pictures to remember our day.
Hiring the Adams for your wedding means that you get so much more than the stunning photos. Their kindness and easy going but attentive nature made us feel so cared for on our day! They truly set our minds at ease when it came to capturing everything we wanted in a wedding album. Their calming, delightful energy made what could have been a stressful day a real breeze. They were the best decision of the whole wedding planning process by far!
Josh and Alexa were an amazing duo to help us capture our wedding. Personable and professional they made us feel like celebrities and so easy for us to focus on enjoying our day. The pictures came out incredible and we couldn’t be happier, thanks so much for being such great partners, would highly recommend working with Josh & Alexa for your wedding.
Josh and Alexa are and incredibly gifted couple. They are professional, creative, personable and overall EXCELLENT at what they do. They took great care to understand what we were hoping for and were calm, organized and fun! We HIGHLY recommend them. From the first conversation, all the way through, they exceeded our expectations! We cannot wait to see the moments they captured from our daughter's wedding day.
We cannot say enough great things about Adams Photography! Josh and Alexa’s calm presence, positive spirit, and professionalism really helped us feel so comfortable during wedding. Throughout our wedding, they were extremely attentive and aware of all the details and the timeline of the day. They captured the joy of the day absolutely perfectly! Josh and Alexa are more than photographers… they are an incredible support and encouragement throughout your engagement and wedding season. Choosing Adams Photography was our best decision in our wedding planning. We will forever treasure our photos and memories with Adams Photography!
Josh and Alexa were the best choice for our wedding photography vendor! They are calming, collective, have a great sense of the day and made sure every specific and unique detail was captured. In a day that flies by fast, it is crucial to have photographers that capture every minute and they did just that. Not to mention, they were able to turn around preview photos in 24-36 hours. I cannot recommend these two enough as they were the BEST decision we made in our wedding planning journey!
Josh and Alexa were definitely the best investment of the day! They were very professional and responsive as they helped us plan the details of our day. On the day of, they were a calm and joyful presence. They captured our day so naturally and beautifully! They also did so much more on the wedding day than just take photos--they truly helped the day run smoothly. I could relax knowing that Josh and Alexa were on it:) We will cherish our beautiful photos for our lifetime! Thank you!!!
Truly cannot even begin to say how incredible Josh and Alexa are. Beyond deserving of the 5-star “the best ever” review!!! Not only are they incredible as photographers, but as people too! They are truly the two most personable people that we know. They put so much of their time into getting to know my husband and I as a couple; they made our entire engagement photo session and wedding planning experience absolutely calm and flawless. Josh and Alexa put not only time and effort into building relationships with the people they work with, but they also put so much effort and detail into each photo they take. Both our engagement and wedding photos turned out even more beautiful than we imagined. This isn’t just coming from us, but every friend and family member who saw a single engagement/wedding photo of ours instantly complimented our photographers. Those who had the pleasure of meeting Josh and Alexa on our wedding day also commented on how sincere, kind, and talented they both are. I mean when I say Josh and Alexa are the way to go when choosing a photography team! They work so beautifully together and really compliment each other well as a photography team (and married couple!!! I mean come on. How sweet is that?!) Josh and Alexa, you two are so talented. We will forever cherish the photos you took for us!
Josh and Alexa couldn’t be more amazing to work with. From the first time my now husband and I met with them, they had such a calming presence and their work was amazing. They also were extremely familiar with our venue we were getting married at, which was such an added bonus.
At our wedding, they were so creative with pictures and locations to take photos on the grounds. Neither my husband or I love having our pictures taken, but Josh and Alexa are so great at making you feel comfortable and posing you so the photos come out amazing. They also are great about taking candid shots, which I loved having. Both our families commented on how great and kind our photographers were. They were also very accommodating and took extended family photos that my parents appreciated so much.
They were so quick to get us back sneak peeks from our wedding. Once we got the entire album back, we were so happy with how well they captured the day.
We truly don’t have enough good things to say about Josh and Alexa. From our engagement shoot to our wedding photos and all the correspondence in between they have been absolutely amazing and so incredibly kind. My husband and I couldn’t recommend them enough!
We just received our final wedding album and Wow.. where do I even begin?! Words will never be able to fully describe how grateful we are and what an honor it was to have Josh and Alexa capture our Wedding Day. Adams Photography was not only recommended by a couple that we know (STUNNING wedding photos) but our wedding reception venue, The Brix on the Fox, also has them on their preferred vendor list - so for us it was a no brainer to inquire! We booked with them about a little over a year out and digitally they were extremely clear and answered all of our questions promptly and made it so easy to solidify and book the best package for us. Fast forward to early Fall of 2021, we began having planning sessions and with their expert advice they truly helped us envision our day and define those special and must have moments that we'd remember for the rest of our lives. We were able to meet Josh and Alexa at our engagement shoot in Chicago and they captured our vision of the scenery precisely and made us feel so at ease in front of the camera. Shortly after that came the wedding and we were constantly reminded throughout the day that we made the best decision ever to book with them. Day of schedule worked out perfect with Josh covering the guys and Alexa having coverage on the ladies ahead of our church ceremony and they were in constant communication to ensure we were sticking to the timeline and things went smoothly. I can truly say we were both so at ease, as they were patient, attentive to detail and provided us with so much direction which we needed and appreciated! They are not only kind, fun and amazing humans but they're extremely talented. From our engagement photos to our wedding sneak peak and final album, we are just so blown away at every moment captured and their style of photography. If you're looking for high quality photos of priceless moments in your life and even better service, then you have yourself the right team to bring you all that and more. THANK YOU Josh and Alexa from the bottom of our hearts for making this season of our lives so so special for us!
Of all the decisions surrounding our wedding day, our decision to hire Josh & Alexa to capture our day was truly the best one we made (besides the decision to marry each other, of course ;) )! I wasn’t a particularly stressed bride on wedding day, but Alexa had such a calming presence that I couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief as soon as she arrived in our getting ready space. She & Josh captured every sweet moment of our day with incredible attention to detail, which really helped us re-live every aspect of our day (even the ones we didn’t get to experience first-hand). Their editing style is beautiful & timeless, capturing the true colors and emotions of our wedding day. Josh & Alexa were incredibly professional, communicative, timely, and kind throughout the entire booking process & wedding day. Many of our bridal party members commented that Josh and Alexa were the kindest, most efficient, and enjoyable photographers that they had experienced throughout the marathon of weddings they’ve stood up in over the past 3-4 years. Adams Photography will be our go-to for professional photos & recommendations to family & friends for many years to come!
WOW. I cannot even put into words how much I truly recommend Adams Photography. I might be biased, but I feel our wedding pictures are the best I have ever seen, and it has everything to do with their personalized style of photography! Many wedding photographers have their own signature hue that they put on all their pictures, and what I loved most about our wedding album was the boldness of color and variety of hues. I felt I could truly feel the emotions behind the pictures, which is exactly what we were looking for! On top of that, Josh and Alexa were just so wonderful to work with, and truly made the day so fun. THANK YOU THANK YOU to Adams Photography for capturing our special day so perfectly!
We LOVE Josh and Alexa! I knew we had to try and book them for our wedding after seeing them in action and their amazing work with so many of our friends and family. They are incredibly responsive, supportive, encouraging, helpful, and easy to be around. Even before any pictures are taken, they are intentional about getting to know you as a couple, what you are looking for, and with all their experience, they helped us work through parts of our wedding so that it would all be seamless. Throughout the wedding day, they made us all feel so comfortable and they bring a sense of calm and care that I really appreciated. On top of who they are as people, their photos are unmatched! They captured our day beautifully. We cannot recommend them enough!!
The Adam’s were so amazing to work with. Felt like our friends were capturing our special day. My whole wedding party and immediate family said how much they loved them. The photos they took are absolutely perfect! I got a preview the next day and can’t wait to see the others. Highly recommend them!!
In one word, EXCEPTIONAL. Josh and Alexa Adams are the most professional, caring, and talented photographers I've ever had the pleasure of hiring. They shot both our engagement session and wedding nearly two years apart. During those years they maintained in close contact with us, thoughtfully checking in despite COVID-19 worries and a completely rescheduled wedding.
On our special day, Josh and Alexa arrived punctually, immediately diving into an extensive shot list without hesitation. Everyone in my bridal party immediately noticed how warm and inviting they were. They made everyone feel comfortable and heard. I can honestly say that they put in more work organizing/coordinating people and events than ANYONE I hired or designated. They made all their hard work look effortless.
What's more, they messaged me a robust amount of previews the day after the session. They made my wedding look even MORE beautiful than I remember (or maybe they just captured the beauty perfectly :)
Although I've relocated since my wedding day, I would 100% trust Josh and Alexa to photograph my future life events (in the event I'm in Chicago again). Trust me when I say, you will NOT regret hiring them.
I truly think that Josh and Alexa are the best photographers out there. Not only are their photos absolutely stunning, but their helpfulness, professionalism, and kindness are some great bonuses that you want with you on your wedding day. They both bring a calming presence to the day as well as the weeks leading up to the wedding. With COVID, they were the first and only vendor that we booked. With the many, many changes (including moving our wedding across the country), Josh and Alexa remained with us throughout the crazy process. They flew all the way to South Carolina for us just to capture our tiny wedding! With each change, they helped us create a detailed schedule that gave us more peace of mind. They really helped make the day what it was - we would not even know where to start without them! To top it all off, they shared a huge preview with us the night of our wedding! They are so easy to work with and to get along with. Seriously, the sweetest couple and amazingly talented photographers. We are so thankful to have our day so beautifully captured by them. Hire them! I cannot recommend them more!
Josh and Alexa are so wonderful! We found them through social media and were thrilled to work with them after our first meeting over Jeni's ice cream. They are so sweet and genuine. For our engagement photos, the weather was not cooperating and we had to reschedule a few times. They were very patient with our work schedules and took our opinion on photo locations into consideration. We even got a preview of those photos the night of!
We were even more grateful to be working with Josh and Alexa with all the crazinesss in 2020. They were flexible and understanding as we were undecided on our wedding plans throughout the year. In the end, we decided to have a smaller ceremony with our immediate family and wedding party on our 10-year dating anniversary in November. They helped us coordinate a day of timeline in addition to a list ceremony shots and family combinations to make sure we got all the photos we wanted. Josh and Alexa have such a calming presence and truly kept the wedding day on track. Josh was able to capture photos of the groomsmen while Alexa was with the bridesmaids in the morning and they coordinated our first look flawlessly! We loved the location they picked for our first look and photos as well. They were very considerate, diligent, and organized directing everyone for different poses. To end the day, we got a preview of 70+ photos from them, which was very meaningful since we could share them with those we couldn't have celebrating with us.
Overall, Josh and Alexa went above and beyond to accommodate us and make our day so memorable. Not only were we impressed, but all of our family and friends had positive remarks about them too! We can't wait to work with them as our photographers when we have a reception in 2021.
I have to echo all the wonderful reviews working with Josh & Alexa!! Do yourself a favor and get on their calendar for your wedding now. You absolutely will not be disappointed.
Josh and Alexa bring a sense of calm and confidence to your wedding day. Their experience is felt. They are able to help guide the day ensuring the focus is on you and vibe of the day is enjoyable. My husband and I admittedly don’t enjoy taking pictures, but they made us feel amazing and the end result— better than we ever expected. Their quality of work is so impressive. They captured the little moments, the amazing angles, the overall spirit of the day perfectly. We are so fortunate to have their beautiful photos to remember our wedding day!
Josh and Alexa continue to wildly exceed our expectations. We chose them based on a friend's recommendation, but were still nervous as my husband and I don't consider ourselves photogenic or natural in front of a camera. Those hesitations immediately subsided the moment we met Josh and Alexa for our engagement shoot. First of all, they might be the sweetest couple we've ever met. Such a pleasure and joy to get to know. For the photos, they managed to direct us in ways that just made sense, and we could tell they had a vision with every shot. Plus, we unexpectedly got several preview shots from them that very night! Having those preview pics was exciting and satisfied us while we waited for the rest of our photos 🙂
Then came 2020... The year our wedding was supposed to take place. This is where we are so, so incredibly thankful we chose such a wonderful couple to shoot our day. They stuck by our side the whole year as my fiancé and I went back and forth on our wedding plans. They were so understanding and patient with us, even though their world had also been rocked by this challenging year. Ultimately, we decided to have a small, intimate ceremony with our immediate families on December 5th, 2020. With many changing factors changing by the day due to COVID, Josh and Alexa rolled with it. When the day finally came, their presence immediately calmed us down our wedding nerves.
I wish I was exaggerating when I say that our wedding day was only a success because of Josh and Alexa. Because of COVID, we didn't have a rehearsal, venue coordinator, or any sort of wedding planner. As a person who gets overwhelmed easily (this is something I didn't know about myself until wedding planning, LOL). Josh and Alexa were one step ahead of everyone. Alexa not only stepped up in the coordination of major parts of the day... Fetching my bouquet, sending the vow books and rings down from our room, coordinating timing with the officiant, and more big/small details that would have been missed... These are not (and should not) be part of a photographer's job description. Still, Josh and Alexa went out of their way to help us have the best day ever.
We had a blast running around the town taking pictures. Josh and Alexa were even game to take a spontaneous picture with Santa which makes us laugh every time we see it. My husband and family are all so impressed with Josh and Alexa. We keep getting teary eyed as we talk about how much they contributed to our special day. Not to mention, the pictures are incredible. With challenging lighting and battling sundown, they rocked it.
We plan on having Josh and Alexa as our photographers when we have a bigger celebration in 2021. We're thankful they were able to accommodate this for us, because I don't think we'd ever want to choose another photography team.
I would recommend Josh and Alexa a million times!! They were so wonderful to work with. They kept our timing running so smooth that we had plenty of time to take all the pictures we wanted! Our picture quality is amazing and every single important moment was captured. I’m forever thankful for the beautiful memories we’ll have forever!!
When we hired our videographer, Anchored Films, I had asked them who they recommended for a photographer. Their #1 Rec. was Adams Photography. From the moment we booked Josh and Alexa all the way up until our wedding day, they have been the easiest people to work and get along with. We clicked at the engagement shoot, and we soon found that all of the amazing reviews we read about them were true. They had such a calming presence and were very positive, upbeat people. We had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID, and even with that and their own stress as a vendor, they made sure we were taken care of and that we were doing okay. They care about their clients and they made that very clear since the beginning. Their talented work is what drew us in, but who they are as people and how professional they are is what would make me hire them a million times more. I have only seen a preview of our wedding photos, and I already know the rest are just as amazing as what I have already seen. We received so many compliments on how organized and smooth everything went photo wise, as I expected it would since that is the same thing I read about them in many reviews before we booked them. They are worth every single penny and they made it a smooth, stress-free day for us and our loved ones. I can’t wait until we can meet up with them again for photos when we start a family. 1000000/10 recommend these two beautiful souls. Their work, and them as people are worth it.
Bringing Josh and Alexa on as our wedding day photographers was a non negotiable for me. There are not two more gracious, generous or compassionate people you could find to capture your day. They both have a gift of making you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and have an eye to capture the beautiful and real moments of your wedding.
When COVID hit Josh and Alexa were quick to offer their help in whatever way would make the process easiest for us, even offering to travel all the way to North Carolina to capture an intimate family ceremony if thats the direction we chose. We are so thankful for the Adams' and their commitment to so perfectly capturing out day! There really isn't a better photography duo out there.
Choosing Josh & Alexa as our photographers was one of the best
(and easiest) decisions we made while planning! I met them when I was a bridesmaid in a wedding they were shooting. They are so easy to work with. They provide this calm presence to a day that can be slightly hectic! They are so organized and make sure throughout the day that they are getting all the shots we hoped for. I love the balance between classic portraits, candids and creative shots. We've only seen the preview and we couldn't be happier! So thankful they were a part of our day!
Having Josh and Alexa as our photographers was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning. They are so easy to work with and were so kind, gentle, and helpful throughout the whole process. Their work is truly stunning. My husband and I were able to relive our entire wedding day while looking through our pictures. We even commented to each other often how we didn't even notice Alexa and Josh were photographing at the time of the pictures! The pictures look so authentic and bright. They captured our wedding day in the most incredible way. We also feel like we became friends with Josh and Alexa throughout the wedding planning process, making us feel that much more comfortable taking pictures with them on our wedding day.
The Adams were the best wedding photographers. Getting married during the pandemic there were lots of unknowns and reschedules and the Adams were so easy to work with and we’re totally stress free. When it came to the day of, we were blown away by the Adams. They scouted out or portrait locations, were on time, split up between bride and groom and kept everyone in line. We got all the pictures that we could have ever wanted. When we got the pictures we were so happy with them. Overall, could not recommend the Adams enough. They are super easy to work with, are super organized, exceed our needs and asks, and take great picture. Oh and they are totally reasonably priced. We have already recommended them to all our friends getting married!
Hire Josh and Alexa Adams. We knew as soon as we met them (at Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream no less) that they were the photography team for us. Our decision was validated many times over during both the engagement shoot and the wedding day. All of our guests felt at ease with Alexa's gentle yet firm direction, and they both truly captured everything impeccably. All of our photos are incredible.The hardest decision is deciding which and how many photographs to print. Hire them. You will not regret it.
We had Josh and Alexa photograph our engagement and our wedding day and we are so glad we did!! They were one of the best parts of our day - they are so talented at what they do and they made us feel at ease and comfortable the entire time. From the very beginning, Josh and Alexa were easy to communicate with and made the planning process effortless. They are both professional, kind, and organized. My husband and I don’t usually take many photos and we don’t really know how to pose, but they helped us through and made us feel like we knew what we were doing. They helped us plan our first look, how to include our dog, and SO much more! Their attention to detail is amazing and it really shows in the photos. We are forever grateful for Josh and Alexa because they helped our day go smoothly and they took the most beautiful photos. We highly recommend Adams Photography!!
The first vendor that I hired for our wedding day was Adams Photography; they came over for coffee and instantly made us feel better about the year of planning ahead and calmed our nerves. I was nervous about all the family photos as we both have very large families, but they got everyone organized and in line with ease.
Josh and Alexa are by far the most fun, respectful, organized, and genuine people you could have for your special day and they take the most incredibly beautiful photos - their candids are my favorite. If you want to be around two people that will become more of your friend/sidekick/ally, hire them - right now!
As a winter storm blew in the Friday of our wedding day, Josh and Alexa seamlessly pivoted the night before to get us an inside space for our bridal party photos. We felt like we were hanging out with friends the whole time they were with us and cried when they had to leave. It felt like all 300 people at the wedding came up to us expressing their love for the two of them.
There will never be enough thank you’s to express how grateful we are for the two of you. You completely made our wedding day.
Exactly one year ago today (1/19), I married the love of my life. It was a day that went by far too fast, but thankfully it was a day captured in way that can be relived any moment we wish.
I remember the first time I saw Josh & Alexa Adams Photography online. In a sea of wedding photographers, their work consistently stood out above the rest. The beauty behind each photo was astounding to me. I couldn't get over how they captured the details of the day. And I don't just mean the details like flowers and the rings (although those shots were stunning), I mean the details like the minuscule moments caught that no one else would ever even notice. Moments that might mean nothing to an outsider, but mean everything when it's YOUR day being captured.
From the moment my husband and I met Josh & Alexa we were SOLD. Their warm spirit, their passion for their work, their ability to connect to you like you've known each other your whole lives; those are such beautifully rare qualities and we were ecstatic when it turned out that our wintery wedding date was wide open on their calendar!
From our engagement shoot, to the back and forth communication in preparation for the big day, to the actual Wedding Day itself, no detail went unnoticed. Josh & Alexa were ALWAYS ready and willing to help in anyway they could so that we could be reassured that everything we would ever dream of being photographed for our wedding, would end up happening.
As soon as our bridal parties met Josh & Alexa on the big day they could NOT STOP raving about them! How sweet and genuine they were, and how lucky we were to find such wonderfully kind photographers, who also happen to be EXTREMELY talented! Josh & Alexa kept things so organized but so calm, and on a day like your Wedding Day, that is truly what you need. They made everything seem so easy and peaceful and really allowed the attention to fall to my husband and I while they hustled in the background to make sure everything was captured to perfection. They even were able to sneak us outside to quickly capture a few snowy shots in the frigid cold. They were willing and are wiling to go out of their way to make sure your day is captured just as you'd want it to be.
Quickly after our wedding we were sent a few sample shots and to say I was emotionally overwhelmed would be an understatement. They were PERFECT. Every single thing about them. The moments captured, the coloring of it all, the quality of the photos... I realize I don't know much about what goes into photography, but I do know that Josh & Alexa have it down to a perfect science and anyone would be MORE than lucky to have them as their wedding photographers. When we received our entire wedding photo collection (in a very timely manner) we were blown away. It far surpassed anything we could've ever dreamed of, and we already had very high expectations since we knew their work.
I am forever grateful I followed my gut instinct. Because from the moment I saw Josh & Alexas work online, I knew that was how our day needed to be captured. Then meeting them in person truly sealed the deal, and to top it all off, to see them shine on our wedding day and be the most professional yet the most heart warningly kind vendor we had... we feel forever blessed. We cannot thank Josh & Alexa enough for coming into our lives and for capturing our big day. Exactly one year ago the day was pure magic, and luckily we can fully relive that exact feeling today thanks to Josh & Alexa.
Hiring Adams Photography was one of the easiest vendor decisions we made! Josh and Alexa are so professional, so kind, and so fun to be around. They made our wedding day so smooth and enjoyable. They went above and beyond any expectations we had. They create the perfect balance of posed shots, that made us both feel comfortable, and candid moments.!
I gave them a list of formal family portraits that we wanted, and Alexa had memorized my family members names and was so efficient getting the group organized and ready for those family photos! I was the last of my sister to get married so my family has experienced 3 other wedding photographers in the last 5 years, and they all agreed that Josh and Alexa were the best! They were kind and efficient and so ready to jump in and help with anything even if it wasn't a photographer responsibility.
They also took the time to get to know us and our interests! My husband and I love to stargaze and spent many date nights under the stars. Josh and Alexa learned that about us, and since we had a clear night, they took us outside during our reception and got the most AMAZING photos of us under the stars!
I honestly cannot recommend them enough!
Hiring Josh and Alexa was the best thing we could have done for our wedding day. They are so kind and thoughtful in everything leading up to the big day, and throughout the entire event. Their professionalism mixed with genuine care bring a sense of peace and relaxation that is such a gift with all that is going on! The two of them work so beautifully as a team and excel at communicating with their clients. I never had to worry about our schedule, if shots were turning out, or if everyone was where they needed to be (which says something since our party and our families are very large). Our photos are absolutely stunning- timeless, elegant, and a perfect representation of the day that we can always look back on now. Josh and Alexa really worked to incorporate the things that were important to us, and capture the natural and whimsical style of our day.
Adams photography really provides more than just beautiful, quality photos, they are kind, life-giving people that will make the actual wedding day so much lighter and joy filled! Thank you Josh and Alexa!
Josh and Alexa were an incredible addition to our wedding day. The pictures turned out so beautifully – we couldn't be happier with them. Beyond that, the Adams kept the wedding day running smoothly. Multiple guests told us that they were the best photographers they'd ever seen –so professional, kind, calm, discreet, and thorough. We are so thankful that they were our wedding photographers!
Josh and Alexa made our day go as smoothly and perfectly as possible. Between meeting with us before to discuss the timeline and details of the day and everything that they accomplished on our wedding day, they were great throughout the whole process. They were willing to give us tips and helpful hints when we needed it but also were willing to make anything work! With large families, sometimes it is hard to gather everyone and get a good photo. Alexa and Josh were professional and efficient in getting us the photos we had wanted while making our day run so smoothly! We are so thankful for the Adams and how they captured our day. We wouldn't have it any other way!
Choosing Josh and Alexa as our wedding photographers was easily the best decision we made for our wedding day. From the first meeting to the delivery of our photos, they were absolutely incredible. They are calm, efficient, professional, respectful, and just an absolute joy to work with. They have incredible attention to detail that shows in their work - all of our special moments were captured perfectly. You can trust you will be in good hands with these two, every step of the way. We truly cannot thank them enough for all they did for us on our day!
Kevin and I cannot recommend Adams Photography enough. Josh and Alexa are incredibly talented and captured our day perfectly. In addition to their style and skills, Josh and Alexa brought a calming presence to our wedding day that we were so thankful for. They were everything we hoped for and more! We can’t wait to work with them again in the future.
Josh and Alexa were amazing! Not only were the wedding photos they delivered fabulous, but they have professionalism of the highest caliber (and are very friendly too!). There is no situation they haven't seen before, and know exactly what needs to be done to get high quality photos. Since they had never been to our venue, they did some planning and scouted out all the best spots. We could not be happier with the service they delivered and would highly recommend them to anyone!
Alexa and Josh delivered us absolutely stunning photos from our wedding and we could not be happier that we chose them to capture our day. They were so easy to work with and were incredibly professional and accommodating. They were so efficient in capturing every moment, somehow getting the perfect shot every single time. Aside from formal photos, we barely even noticed them being there, perfectly blending in during the ceremony and reception but still able to get photos as if they were right next to you. Also, I sliced my left hand open 3 days before my wedding, leaving a superglued mess behind and they put the extra effort in to make sure that it was edited out of all the photos, which is incredible and not something I expected! If we were doing it all again we would choose them in a heartbeat!
Josh and Alexa are the most incredible people to have documenting your most special day! These two are so genuine and sweet, and they bring so much joy and ease with what they do. Their work is absolutely stunning and will leave you with beautiful photos to cherish forever. We couldn't be more pleased with the way these two work together -- they are efficient, organized, and SO very kind! We would recommend their amazing work to anyone who is in need of a photographer!
Josh and Alexa were everything we could have imagined our wedding photographers would be. Their calm yet efficient demeanor resulted in a shockingly stress-free day which is exactly what I hoped my wedding day would be. Aside from their obvious talent, they are incredibly professional, respectful, and kind. We had a vision of classy and timeless wedding photos, and the Adams delivered just that! They perfectly captured every detail of our big day, and we can’t wait to re-live our day a million times over through these photos. Adams Photography was definitely the easiest decision we made :)
Having Josh and Alexa capture our wedding day was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Their quality of work is unbeatable- the photos are natural, timeless, and they capture the day perfectly. And not only is their work absolutely incredible, but Josh and Alexa themselves are what made their work so amazing. These two are sweet, genuine, and thoughtful in their work. They understand the chaos of a wedding day and bring a peaceful sense of patience to the scene. Josh and Alexa bring joy and calmness to every situation, and their work is simply the best. I could go on and on about them!
Everyone needs to check out Adams Photography and book them, today! We knew they would be amazing but were BLOWN AWAY by their professionalism, how comfortable and fun loving they are, their creativity and amazing work. I have always loved their work and wouldn't have picked anyone else to do our wedding. Highly recommend these two- they will capture your day perfectly, return images quickly and take such clean, fresh and beautiful images that allow you to relive your special day over and over again! Don't hesitate to book these two for your wedding, engagement, family photos, etc... They are THE BEST!
We found Josh & Alexa through my hair salon’s wedding Instagram! We fell in love with their style of photography, and are SO happy they were available for our big day!
Josh and Alexa are so kind, professional, and considerate! They spent the whole day with us and made it perfect! We just received our photos and couldn’t be happier with how they turned out! They are stunning! We definitely will be contacting Adams Photography again in the future!
We found Josh and Alexa through our venues Instagram page and from that moment forward we were nothing but happy working with them! They are truly an incredibly kind couple and incredibly talented photographers! After contacting them, they were very open to meeting with us in person at a location near our home. This was so helpful for a few reasons, we were able to get to know them a little bit and could already tell that we were going to be able to be very comfortable around them and also they were able to show us the completed wedding album of the couple that we had first seen on Instagram that had married at our venue. It was a little bit like looking into the future and it was beautiful! Throughout the whole process they were very quick to respond to any and all questions that we had, including helping us put together a timeline for the day of the wedding. They have such a calming and kind presence while still knowing what the best photos are and directing all people to be in the right place at the right time. They were also really attentive to us. With a late October wedding, my Husband had mentioned that his hands were starting to get cold to no one in particular and within minutes Josh found and handed him gloves. Its the little things like that that just make the day that much more special. We received a preview of the photos the night of the wedding, which was amazing, and the remaining photos ( over 900!) about a month after the wedding and they were all absolutely stunning! All of this was echoed to us by our entire bridal party, parents and families who also really enjoyed working with Adams Photography. One of the bridesmaids has already hired them for her maternity shoot!
We truly cant thank them enough for all that they did for us!
OMG! Ok, to all future brides out there, you will seriously be blown away by the quality of these photographer's work! Our photos were not only incredibly efficient and timely, but every photo captures an emotion and a moment that my husband and I loved looking back on. The day of the wedding they made everything a breeze- I mean the last thing you want as a bride is your photographers running behind or stressing out out even more! But not these guys; their punctuality and professionalism was a breath of fresh air on a day of chaos. Did I mention we also got our photos back two weeks after our wedding? TWO WEEKS! They sent us a sharable link that we were able to forward to all our friends and family so it was no pain or hassle to get your guests your photos. If you're still on the fence, check our their instagram, @adamsphotography.co !!
After a tedious search to find a husband/wife photography duo, we came across Josh & Alexa on Instagram and immediately fell in love with their style. These two are not only HARD workers, but BEAUTIFUL people - our entire wedding party and family members could not stop raving about them after the wedding! They sent us 50 photos just a couple hours after the reception ended, and the rest (around 1,000) less than a month later. Alexa & Josh are professional, organized, and overall an outstanding couple to work with and get to know. I would HIGHLY recommend working with these amazing people - you will not be disappointed!
We came across Josh and Alexa on Instagram and fell immediately in love with their work. We had gone through so many different photographers' portfolios and none of them really fit our taste/style until we came across Adams Photography!
Josh and Alexa are a really sweet photographer couple. On the wedding day, they scouted out our wedding venue in the morning to figure out the best photo spots first, and they were just extremely fun to work with. Both of them were really patient and gave us clear directions and ideas for our shoots.
All in all, we couldn't have asked for better photographers. Their quality work, kindness, and patience - it's everything you can ever ask for from a photographer(s)!
Our wedding photos are absolutely stunning! Josh and Alexa have excellent skills, and the perfect personality to go with it. They made our whole wedding day feel calm, and under control. They got us a preview of about 50 photos by the end of the wedding day, which was incredible. I would choose Adams Photography 10/10 times! They’re the best!
We LOVED working with Josh and Alexa at Adams Photography! We used them for our engagement and wedding day and not only did the photography turn out amazing, but their calm demeaner was so appreciated on the day of! They did a great job making sure that we got all of the individual and group photos that we were looking for. The photos truly capture the essence of the day. Nothing felt forced and everything is natural and really shows our personalities. We got a preview of our wedding photos the NIGHT OF our wedding! Our guests loved them and we got several compliments on how great they were. One of our guests already booked them for their wedding next year 😊 I am so glad we chose them and hope to work with them again!
Josh and Alexa are great people and great photographers. They were so easy to work with and genuinely cared about our experience and the product they gave us. Many of our guests also gave them complements on how fun they were:)
I cannot say enough about Josh and Alexa. They were absolutely amazing to work with. Just by looking at their pictures, you can see the talent they both have for photography, but what you don't see is their personalities. Both Josh and Alexa are very personable and are very easy to talk to. They both have a calming presence about them, which is extraordinarily helpful on what can be a very stressful day. Josh and Alexa are very efficient in taking group pictures of families, which made everything go smoothly the day of the wedding. They provided a preview of our wedding photos the night of the wedding, which completely blew us away. I would recommend them to anyone looking for photographers in the area, they are a complete pleasure to work with and I am so grateful we choose them to capture our wedding!
We truly cannot say enough good about our experience with Adams Photography! Prior to our wedding, we found ourselves wondering how Josh & Alexa consistently manage to produce flawless photos no matter who/what they’re photographing. Now that we've had the pleasure of working with them, the answer is clear to see. Josh & Alexa have a way of bringing out the genuinely beautiful parts of people in a way that feels so natural and unforced. Not only are they high-quality photographers, but they are high-quality individuals who so evidently love the work they do and desire to do it well. Our families were so impressed by their professionalism, and even more impressed by the elegance and charm of the edited photos – a preview of which came before our wedding night ended! Hiring Adams Photography was the first thing we checked off our wedding to-do list, and we could not be more pleased with our decision!
Our wedding photos by Adams Photography are absolutely incredible and all that I could have hoped for. I am blown away by the talent of this amazing couple! Alexa & Josh captured all of the emotions and details of our wedding day perfectly. They are incredibly artistic and provide you with a variety of beautiful photos (and quickly after your wedding day too!!). They are not only hardworking and incredible photographers, but such a kind couple. Alexa is so patient and sweet. She me helped to stay relaxed throughout the day by coordinating pictures flawlessly and calmly helping me to fix my hair and dress as well. Josh was all over the ceremony and reception site getting pictures from every angle. They really work hard to make sure to capture all of the photos the bride and groom are hoping for. I have received so many compliments from family and friends about how great Adams Photography was to work with and how amazing our pictures are!! My husband and our family could not be happier with how our photos turned out!! I recommend Adams Photography without any hesitation. Alexa & Josh are truly incredible!!
Not only are Alexa and Josh the sweetest couple ever, but they're also unbelievably talented! They are such a pleasure to work with and always made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We were blown away by the quality of our engagement and wedding photos, and we also couldn't believe how quickly we received them! Truly cannot recommend them enough---hiring them to be our wedding photographers was one of the best decisions we made during the wedding planning process. We will cherish pictures forever!
osh and Alexa are the perfect photographer duo! We could never choose a better couple to capture our engagement shoot and wedding day. They made each shoot so comfortable and fun! The engagement photos exceeded my expectations and I know the wedding photos will do the same. The level of organization on the wedding day that these two have made it so simple and easy. They are also two of the kindest people I have ever met. I am so thankful to have worked with them and hope to again in the future!
Amazing and sweet couple!!! I honestly don't know what I would've done with them! Alexa and Josh were so professional and helpful throughout the day. We received proofs the night of and the photos were so beautiful!!! I had a little
moment when we got a little drizzle in the forecast and they both made me less stressed and problem solved where we can keep dry and still have picture taken. Even with needing help with bustling my dress Alexa helped me out! Josh and Alexa are very talented and beautiful people! I've just only received there proofs so far as it is too early, and people keep telling us how great of a job our photographers did!! I highly recommended Adams photography! The best vendors I had that day!!!
If you are looking for a professional, skilled photography team who will beautifully capture the special moments on your wedding day with great detail and excellence, you should go with this team. I just got married in June and was so excited to finally get the pictures back from the wedding! We were so excited to see how our wedding pictures would be since we had already gotten such wonderful pictures from our engagement photo shoot with them. Josh and Alexa do amazing work and I'm impressed with how quickly they got the pictures back to us after the wedding. Only a few weeks later and we have our pictures in hand. I'm so glad that my husband and I went with this couple and I would recommend them to anyone planning their wedding!
Not only were Josh and Alexa professional, sweet, and supportive throughout the entire wedding day, they produced amazing pictures for a very affordable rate. We couldn't have been happier with their work!
Besides the groom, this was probably my happiest wedding choice! I looked all over the internet for photographers that captured weddings in a peaceful, artistic, and heart-warming way. Alexa and Josh are friends of friends and I was so grateful to have their help in planning, their peaceful presence on the wedding day, and to see their beautiful captured moments now afterward. Seriously, you will NOT regret using Alexa and Josh. They're amazing. I can't wait to see the whole set of photos after I got my teaser email with the preview :)
