Beau did a magnificent job with my daughter's wedding. He was an absolute delight to work with. Beau very quickly got the vibe of the wedding. He fit right in, was not intrusive in...
any way, captured the event, mood and magic perfectly. And, he made us all look good! We particularly appreciated having so many candid shots throughout the entire event. I highly and, without reservation, recommend Beau!!

It is hard to say enough good things about Beau's work in a few sentences, but here is the short version for those of you who don't want to hear me shower him with compliments: My ...
husband and I trusted Beau to document the most important event of our lives thus far, and we couldn't be happier about it!
Beau is a true artist who knows how and (more importantly) when to put those skills to use. We have an incredible amount of traditional wedding photos with a few highly creative shots sprinkled in there to capture the mood and emotion of a given moment. Honestly, when we got the wedding photos back from Beau, we couldn't believe how well it was documented considering we barely noticed his presence during the event. My parents love the classic wedding shots, and my friends are super impressed with his artistic photos as well. Our family will cherish and hold dear the photos he took for us for the rest of our lives and beyond! Thank you, Beau!

We hired Beau Sniderman to photograph our wedding in July. I have to say that he exceeded our expectations. The photos he delivered to us captured the most amazing weekend of our...

Beau was incredibly friendly and professional to work with. I feel so lucky to have found him. He took photos that really captured the feel of the moment. They are crisp, beautiful...
, professional, but also not overly edited or posed. He blended in seamlessly with the guests and with the wedding party so we felt at ease while he was at work, even forgetting he was there until we saw the pictures later. His price was incredible for what he delivered. I really appreciated that he wasn't trying to sell me on copies of photos or packages, the cost was the cost and then we got the photos for life and could decide what to do with them. In fact, we were married 4 years ago. Last week I realized I hadn't downloaded all the photos he had sent us and the link had expired. He just had the heart to share them all with me again. I am so grateful!

Beau photographed our wedding this fall and he was everything we could have asked for.
Beau communicated clearly, was more than favorable on price, and seamlessly faded into the d...
ay.
One of the main reasons we went with Beau was that he told us his focus was on capturing moments in the wedding day as they naturally happen, and he really delivered. He faded into the background, caught great shots, but was also immediately ready whenever the bride wanted a specific photo. Beyond getting great shots, every one of our guests that talked to him had a positive interaction and great things to say.
Go with Beau as your photographer and you will be extremely satisfied with overall experience of working with him and delighted with the outcome of the photos.

Beau is such a kind being and a natural at photography. He really knows how to work a room and set people at ease, whether that's blending in with your wedding party or capturing t...
he best moments between your guests. I really didn't notice him much which is probably a good thing. The turnaround on our photos was quick but everything was also beautiful and just had that natural look we wanted, nothing forced. He really has an eye and we didn't feel there was anything missing in the end. Beau was just like a friend, easy to work with, professional and timely with his emails and calls.
