Crissy and her teammate did an amazing job capturing our day. We could not be happier with the quality and variety of the photos we got back. From my initial inquiry to book Crissy through the end of the process she was so friendly and awesome to work with.
Crissy is outstanding! Made the wedding party feel at ease on the big day. Photos came out amazing. Her and her partner capture such magical moments.
Crissy and her partner were absolutely fantastic!! I was planning my wedding for 2 years and she helped me every step of the way! I got my sneak peak photos and my husband and I are already in love. Thank you both so much for all your hard work!
If I could give Chrissy 6 stars I would! She and Lisa made my husband and I so comfortable throughout the whole photo process. We absolutely love all of our photos - they captured our love so beautifully!
Crissy did our wedding photos and I couldn't be happier with how they came out. They were better than I ever imagined they would be. Crissy was a joy to work with. She and her partner captured every important moment of our wedding and the results were so beautiful.
Crissy and her assistant, Lisa, were INCREDIBLE! We received the 800+ photos back from our wedding, tried to narrow it down to ‘just’ the ones we absolutely loved, and still had over 300+ photos in our favorites album!
Crissy has actually been our wedding photographer for three years. You see, we initially booked way back in 2019 for a 2020 wedding, which was postponed multiple times due to lockdown. We knew rescheduling would be a hassle but we were determined to find a date that specifically worked for Crissy because of the amazing experience that we had during our engagement shoot.
I’d like to share a few points that really made Crissy and Lisa stand out to us:
* Incredible flexibility and organization. We had postponed 2 years, but Crissy was so willing to work with us as we rescheduled 3 times to find a date when we could safely celebrate. She had all of our original paperwork years later, and when the 2022 date drew close, we were able to resume conversations as no time had passed.
* Such a FUN and easygoing attitude! My husband and I are complete goofballs, who did not make it easy for Crissy & team to pose us in romantic ways. We were constantly giggling, but Crissy found a way to highlight the glee and quirkiness in a way that still captured the love in our hearts and eyes.
* If you feel awkward taking pictures, then Lisa and Crissy are completely the right pair for you. Lisa realized very quickly that I just do not know what to do with my hands and gave me very specific instructions on where to place them. It was such a relief to have that extra bit of instruction done in a way that was still playful and never patronizing.
* We had a lot of last-minute changes with family photos, and Crissy was easily able to revise on the fly.
* GREAT WITH DOGS! Of course, our pup had to be included in some of our photos, and Crissy (a dog lover herself!) was able (at our request) to make our pup a centerpiece of our engagement photos.
* Crissy and Lisa felt like part of the wedding party. We laughed with them the entire time and just had a complete blast. They put us at ease, and in doing so were able to capture genuine smiles.
* The pictures are gorgeous. We are struggling to narrow it down to just a few to send to family and friends. We loved so many photos that we specifically bought a digital frame to display them all alongside some printed ones.
We chose Crissy based on a fabulous recommendation from a friend, and I will be passing that same recommendation on to everyone I know. Crissy is fabulous, able to handle even the most quirky families & friends, and captures the moments where you were having too much fun to even realize pictures were happening.
A huge thank you to Crissy and Lisa for making our special day one that we can always remember.
We used Crissy and her partner for our backyard wedding and it was fantastic! Due to the pandemic we had to reschedule 3x and Crissy was nothing but supportive and responsive throughout the entire process. We will be using her again next year for the "big wedding" and we can't wait to work together one more time. The photos came out beautiful. She also made a rather "crummy" day (married during a tropical storm) - a magical memory! Highly recommend Crissy for any photography needs!
Crissy was a amazing wedding photographer. She did a good job of making my husband and I feel relaxed and comfortable. We received all of our photos quicker than expected and they all came out great!!
Crissy and team were awesome for our Memorial Day weekend wedding. They were easygoing and got beautiful photos of a typically not photogenic couple : ) They handled “too many cooks” when family members wanted to chime in and the mother of the bride bogarting the photo booth- I thank them for their patience! Their turn-around time was amazing. We were emailed a sneak peak within days and received our flash drive in the mail a week later. Thanks Crissy!
My wedding pictures are absolutely beautiful! The photographers were very easy to work with, professional and they were fun! Even my husband felt at ease and he hates being photographed. Very reasonably priced for gorgeous professional pictures. It was a very easy and comfortable experience from start to finish.
We would like to share excellent reviews for Bayless Photography, we are so glad and fortunate to have worked with them for our special day. We really loved working with Crissy, Jay and Kim. They were a lot of fun to work with, and made both our engagement session and the wedding very enjoyable. We received the wedding photos within two weeks, and absolutely love them! They truly care about making our special day memorable.
I could not have picked a better photography team to work at our wedding and our engagement shoot. Crissy is a incredible person to work with and she will get the best shots possible for her couples. Lisa is her perfect counterpart and makes you laugh and feel relaxed. The two of them are not only amazing photographers they are also awesome people. I keep getting compliments on all of my wedding photos and I know a huge part of that is all thanks to them. Thank you for making us feel so relaxed in front of the camera and making us feel special. You guys truly are amazing and I will miss corresponding with you. If I have any photography needs in the future you guys will be the first people I call. Thank you so much again!
I can't recommend Bayless Photography highly enough! They gave us an incredible deal- from a free engagement shoot and photo booth at the reception to getting digital copies of thousands of photos included, we got SO MUCH for our money. More importantly, Crissy and her assistant Lisa did a phenomenal job with our engagement and wedding photos- they were awesome with the kids (and our dog at the engagement shoot) and made sure to take every single picture I wanted. They were out in the scorching heat photographing for hours and never once complained or tried to rush us. They are true professionals with top of the line equipment and must have spent hours photoshopping out parked cars/ traffic cones in the background of some of our group shots just so we could take pictures in the shade. They also got us a sneak peak of our wedding photos within a few days and literally thousands of edited photos within a weak and a half. I would absolutely recommend without reservation.
We had a great time with Chrissy! It was a beautiful day and the pictures captured it all. They were very professional yet kept everyone laughing and at ease. I wouldn't have had it any other way and wish we could go back and do it all over again. Thanks for the memories!
Bayless did an amazing job at my wedding and reception. One of the most important things for my wedding was the photos I could get from it to remember forever after. The photos they took were breathtaking and more than I could ask for. They have an easy questionnaire to fill out and great suggestions for all photos you will want and need. Jay was very professional and I got over 800 photos! The only thing I can complain about is I don’t know which ones I want to print out since I love so many!
Bayless Photography did both my engagement photos and my wedding day photos, and I would highly recommend them!! Jay was so pleasant to work with, and everything was captured so beautifully! I can't wait to work with them for any future events.
Crissy was the best choice for us!! She was able to capture the best moments, she understands
her subjects, has fun with them and is so easy to work with! We have too many great shots, we can't decide! We enjoyed having Crissy and Lisa for the afternoon. So thankful I called and stuck to my instincts , Thanks Crissy and Lisa❌⭕️
Bayless Photography was absolutely wonderful! We booked the package that included a portrait session‚ so I did a bridal portrait session with photographer Jay about 2 months before the wedding. I have nothing but praise for Jay. He captured AMAZING moments, and made me so comfortable during the bridal session. By the time the wedding came, I had zero concerns about Jay and what he could do. After the wedding, Crissy got the edited photos back to me very quickly, and they were incredible. My husband and I had such a hard time deciding which were our favorites. Book with Bayless!
I wish I could give Bayless more than 5 stars. Since the moment I met Jay and Kim, I knew that our wedding would be remembered beautifully by the photos they captured. It was awesome having two photographers, one for close ups and one for wide angle shots and they captured all of our special moments and emotions of our wedding day. Jay and Kim were very friendly and fun and I couldn’t have wanted anything better. My husband and I were blown away by our wedding photos and we continue to receive tons of compliments on our pictures and how amazing they turned out! The owner Crissy was very easy to communicate with and kept us updated on the editing process of our photos. We were amazed by how many photographs they took and we received a USB drive with all our photos. My husband and I will highly recommend Bayless Photography for your wedding or special event.
We chose Bayless Photography because they were one of the preferred photographers for the package deal our venue offered, and we felt like we were getting the best deal for our money. We were so happy with our choice! We worked with Crissy, the owner, on all of the details, as well as to set up our engagement session, and she made everything so easy! We had two photographers on the day of and everything was so smooth. Corey and Jay were super efficient and got all of the shots we wanted (as well as the ones we didn't know we wanted!). I wish we had a few more portraits of my husband and I, but there is only so much time on your wedding day and it goes by so fast! They threw in a free photo station and props, which was a huge hit with the guests. And they gave us a fantastic deal on an engagement session too. All of the pictures came out wonderfully, and the editing was very nicely done. We got a USB drive with all of the photos afterward--they took a TON--and could also order some professional prints through their website. They make great Christmas gifts!! I am so glad we trusted Bayless Photography to capture our big day. They did an absolutely fantastic job and I would highly, HIGHLY, recommend them!!
My husband and I planned our wedding in 3 months, and from the first time we contacted Bayless Photography, Crissy was very helpful in answering all of our questions and sending the appropriate paperwork at the right time. We elected to add an engagement shoot to the wedding package we chose and for both days, Jay was fantastic. He was very professional, and made sure he captured every aspect of our day that we could have asked for. We love our pictures and have been having fun sharing them with family and friends.
Crissy is a wonderful photographer who anticipates the needs of the bride and groom and does everything she can to ensure things run smoothly--without drama--on the wedding day. I cannot imagine having anyone else shoot my wedding.
In addition to her professionalism, attentiveness and great eye, Crissy is also a really nice person. She clicked with us immediately and blended well with the rest of our guests at the wedding. Everyone wanted to have their photos taken by Crissy and as a result, she got some really awesome shots. We were so happy with our final photos that we have hired Crissy to shoot other events for us.
I highly recommend Crissy!
We came across Bayless Photography through our wedding venue. From this first time I spoke with Crissy I knew she was the perfect fit for us! Crissy was very accommodating with our schedules when it came time for meetings and she was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. Crissy was very quick to respond to emails and phone calls.
When it came time for the wedding day she was not only on time but early with her other photographer. She took the information we had given her for a "vision" for pictures and she incorporated everything we could imagine and hope for.
We received our sneak peak about a week after the wedding and it definitely left us wanting more. We were over the moon with how great they came out.
We got the rest of our pictures back about a month later. We were very happy with how they came out. She captured all the moments we could imagine.
She is knowledgeable, professional, friendly and just overall a great person to have around, especially during such a stressful time.
We are soooooo happy with the service and quality of our wedding photos. We would recommend anyone and everyone we know to use Bayless Photography and will be hiring them again for future needs (family photos, etc.)
Thank you Crissy for your hand in making our day amazing!!!
I had a lot of trouble finding a good photographer for our wedding due to responsiveness and a cancellation. I should have just booked Bayless Photography from day one. Crissy was extremely professional, responsive, prepared, helpful and a talented photographer. She makes you feel at ease throughout the whole process. Crissy and Jay were awesome on our wedding day and worked with any requests we had for timing and photos. I was concerned about missing a lot of time to enjoy the wedding for the photos and Crissy worked with us to get all the shots in in a timely manner and we had fun! I LOVED our photos and they came within a few weeks of our wedding which was great. Crissy even follows-up to make sure everything is to your liking. No need to look anywhere else, Bayless Photography is perfect.
We used the Bayless Photography team for May 2, 2015 wedding and could not be more happier with the results. Crissy was a joy to work with and Jay was wonderful on our big day. I appreciated how quickly Crissy always got back to me and was very professional. Jay was energetic and fun and made taking all of the pictures on our wedding day easy. I was shocked when we got all of our pictures back just 2 weeks after our wedding! I highly recommend Bayelss Photography!
Excellent, excellent service from start to finish. Crissy is so awesome and personable. Super easy to talk to and so fairly priced. We met beforehand for her to get a feel for what I wanted. Her and Jay did our engagement session as well, and I wouldn’t have had anyone else!! Every single photo I wanted she had on a list already, and the few extras I wanted, I sent her examples of each. Somehow throughout the busy day of the wedding, she captured them all. The quality of the photos was fabulous, not to mention the sense of urgency she works with!! We got married on 12.13.14, and had our photos online by Christmas Eve (you do the math – SO FAST!), and the CD by 12.27.14. I would recommend Bayless Photography to anyone (and request Crissy and Jay – such an amazing team)!
Crissy is one of the best professionals you will ever encounter. We worked together on a beautiful, high end wedding this past summer and she was incredible on both her dealings with people and her photographic skills.
She was creative, energetic and went out of her way several times to make absolutely sure the couple had all the pictures they had envisioned and no moment was left unrecorded!
I would recommend her services to any couple looking for a fun professional that has the gift to capture the magic of their special day in their pictures!
Crissy and Jay were amazing to work with from the engagement session through the reception! We absolutely love the way they captured our personalities and the entire mood of the evening! I will definitely use Bayless for any photo needs in the future and I highly recommend them to any bride, but you need to book them early!
Crissy and Jay photographed our 2011 wedding...as well as my sister in law's 2011 wedding, two friends' 2012 weddings, and my sister's 2013 wedding. Obviously, we love Bayless photography so much, we've recommended them to everyone we know! Crissy does her homework. She scouts locations ahead of time, and she stays in touch to make sure that everyone--bride, groom, and parents--are on the same page. Our pictures were just amazing. They really captured the emotions of our wedding day. Crissy had our pictures back to us within two weeks of our wedding day! Both Crissy and Jay have been absolutely wonderful to work with. They are professional and get their job done well, but they have great personalities and are so much fun to be around. They made everyone--bride, groom, wedding party and family--feel so comfortable, which I believe is what made our pictures so great. I can't recommend Bayless Photography enough!
Bayless photography photographed the wedding of my older daughter in 2011 and most recently, my youngest daughter just two weeks ago, July of 2013. The weddings were very different. One took place in the middle of downtown Atlanta, the other was on the Chattahoochee. Crissy and Jay worked so hard. They were out early to scout shooting sites and requested input from the bride to make sure they are getting the shots she is looking for. One thing I love is that they really captured the true feeling of each wedding. Pictures of each wedding are unique and different and a true reflection of the bride and groom. My daughters look stunning in the pictures, but they look like themselves. The posing is natural and easy....not like some of the "album cover" shots I see in so many weddings today. My youngest daughter's wedding took place on a rainy weekend. Crissy assured all of us that rain or shine, they would get the pictures we wanted.....and they did. The pictures are stunning. They really used the rainy day to their advantage. We had sneak peek shots back to us by the next day, and the remaining shots were edited and back to us before the kids got home from their honeymoon. I can not tell you how pleased I am with Bayless Photography. Crissy and Jay love what they do and it is reflected in the product. They are simply the best!!!
Crissy is an amazing, amazing photographer! She is friendly, accommodating, and willing to go the extra mile to make her customers happy. Crissy took my engagement photos, family photos, and wedding photos. I had so many photos to choose from, I could not have been more pleased with her work. I will be using her for future family pictures!!
Amazing working with Crissy and Jay. We had a ton of fun at the engagement photo shoot, and at the wedding. Every moment was captured perfectly. Less than 2 weeks after the day, we had our photos. Everything was perfect.
Crissy and her assistant were awesome! We did our engagement photos with Crissy early and she was great. Real down to earth and just let us have fun with it. I got the wedding photos two weeks after the wedding which I was pleasantly surprised about! The pictures were beautiful! Really unique and they caught alot of really good candid moments! I was really impressed! I'm so happy we used Bayless Photography, Inc. and would recommend them to ANYONE!
Crissy Bayless & Jay Minor photographed our wedding. They traveled to West Virginia for the wedding weekend.
They were able to get all of the photos we wanted with our large families and bridal parties -- even with the crazy Super Storm Sandy weather constraints.
I HATE photos -- but Crissy and Jay made my groom and I feel incredibly comfortable. They got to know my bridal party and family.
We did a full bridal package with engagement session and ALL day (and rehearsal dinner) package, but Bayless photography's prices were competitive and I have to say -- WORTH IT!!
They do a fabulous job and I would recommend them to EVERYONE!!
CRISSY WAS GREAT TO WORK WITH. WE ARE VERY PLEASED WJTH OUR PICTURES!
We had such a great time working with Crissy and Jay at our July 21, 2012 wedding. We planned our wedding from out of state so were not able to meet in person prior to the day of the wedding but Crissy was so easy to get in touch with. Both photographers were so open to anything I suggested and really listened to what I wanted and didn't want. We had so much fun and absolutely love all of the pictures we received.
Very laid back and easy to work with had every little detail taken care of before the wedding so I would not forget. LOVED her!
