Our pictures came out amazing and Bart has a very keen eye for surroundings and catching the right moment. He was great at directing us into flattering positions and making us look good, not just taking good pictures. Another crucial skill was wrangling people to take pictures, especially difficult children. He was responsive throughout the process and went beyond what he needed to.
Bart is an amazing photographer! He created beautiful images, captured all big and small moments and made our whole family feel at ease throughout the day., We received multiple comments from family and guests praising his professionalism and attitude. In the past we had weddings in the family where we were unhappy with photography and lack of customer service, but now we have Bart and he is our new "go to" person for all of our future events and portraits in the family.
Bart was AMAZING!!! He photographed my brothers wedding and he was like a ninja- was there when we needed him, but never in the way, he really is incredibly talented! He would be my first recommendation to capture your memories!
Bart was absolutely amazing to work with! Very detailed oriented, professional, friendly and eager to capture the most amazing images for our special day. The moment he stepped in on our wedding day I felt as though we had known one another for years- my husband and I felt so comfortable with him. He made everything flow so smoothly and captured so many incredible images! He was very easy to work with and created a custom package that suited our needs! We HIGHLY recommend Bart! We look forward to working with him for all future formal events!
Bart is the best and is our first choice for any special event.
My husband & I used Bart for our wedding. He did photography for many of our friends & everyone said he is the best. They weren't wrong. He is the best! He makes everyone feel so comfortable. The most important thing is that he captures every important moment. He is so nice, sweet, and professional! Our wedding day was on a tight schedule, but thanks to Bart we made everything on time. Our pictures were breathtaking! Bart will be doing our son's Christening pictures! He is our family photographer. I refer him to everyone I know! We will never change him!
Bart was personal yet perfessional. He captured more than I ever expected and the album he made was so beautiful. He was with us from beginning to end; our hotel for makeup and hair to the end of our reception. The whole day we were ahead of schedule and was even able to sneak in a few sunset photos! Bart is truly the best at what he does and would recommend him to anyone!
Bart made our wedding day one to remember. He helped us achieve all the photos we wanted. We were so happy with all the pictures and our beautiful photo album. Bart even did our engagement photos on the coldest day of the year at an ice rink. Bart wins photographer of the year for having a photo shoot when the temperature is in the negatives. Thank you Bart for all your hard work. I would recommend Bart to others and absolutely use him in the future!
Bart was my photographer for my wedding and Choosing him was the best decision. He captured all my special moments didn’t miss anything! I still highly recommend him! He is also a pleasure to work with. Trust me you will be Happy after your big day is over! You can relive all the moments because of Bart’s Expert photography!
Loved working with Bart. He was so calm and collected & produced beautiful photos for my engagement shoot & wedding! We had a large bridal party as well and he really knew how to keep everyone on target and got the shots I had discussed prior to my wedding.
I highly recommend him & his services! You won't be disappointed.
Endorsing Bart:
Smartest thing we ever did was hire Bart for our daughter's in-town wedding party at the Highland Park Art Center because the pictures turned out great. First, our daughter, who's quite camera shy, seemed to relax with his understated manner, and somehow Bart made her very comfortable. What a coup that in itself was. Plus he was so easy to be with for the entire time.
The pictures turned out gorgeous, and really caught the flavor of our affair. We were so wonderfully surprised with so many candid pictures that we had no idea they were even being taken, and really captured the moment, either fun or sentimental. There were so many to choose from.
The pictures of the Bride and Groom alone together turned out to be show-stoppers. Bart didn't have them just stand together and look at the camera. They were soft, and romantic, so good that they became our collage thank you card.
And we'll always treasure the albums he designed. The larger album for the wedding couple and just one size down for we parents. And the parent albums are a little different from the main album.. He allowed us to change some pictures so we got to put more of our own family and friends in, a perfect chronology highlighting the entire day. Pages arranged so artfully that we marvel at Bart's many talents.
Recently, my children arranged an entire weekend of dinners and activities for my husband's big birthday celebration, inviting extended family members who would be coming in from out of town for the celebration party. Who knows when we'd all be together again, so we wanted a family portrait taken and of course, called Bart. He coached us on what and what not to wear and advised we do an outdoor picture. And I don't know how he arranged us so well but it's exactly what we wanted it to be. Then he broke us down into individual families and couples and kids. Everyone is so pleased and delighted that we did this. I can't strongly recommend how important it is for us today and for future generations to have these family pictures.
And now that I've had the wonderful news that I'm going to be a first time grandmom, Bart will certainly be called for the preggy-pictures and soon after, the official baby's portrait. He has truly become our family photographer.
Bart Galbas was my photographer and I loved him! He was punctual, professional, knowledgeable, and gave my pictures to me when he said that he would. I love all of my pictures that he took. He had several great locations to go to which really made it really easy. I would highly recommend him to any family or friends.
If you are looking for a photographer to capture the happiness, love and every emotion in between during your big event, Bart is the one! He goes above and beyond just being a talented and fun photographer, he helps ensure you enjoy your day. He has such an eye for capturing real moments. Very easy to work with, always returns text and phone calls right away. We received our pictures in a timely manner and they were breath-taking. We are so happy that we were able to work with him and will recommend him to our family and friends.
