ext step and schedule our consultation. We wanted someone who had experience but also someone who could make our experience relaxing and enjoy. After our consultation we decided to move forward with Tyrone, because he was very prompt with communication and also made us feel comfortable.
As we expected our wedding day photos came out beautiful and we had a great experience. We talked through the wedding day schedule with Tyrone prior to the wedding, discussing the important parts of the day with him. He listened intently and even arrived early on wedding day to plan out the best shots. We really appreciated that he captured precisions moments behind the scenes of our parents and made the bridal party feel special. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and really appreciate the BeyondTheFocus for capturing our special day.

ne leading up to the big day alleviated a great deal of stress. His calm and professional demeanor made our wedding day a breeze, and the photos he captured were even more stunning than our memories. But beyond everything that was delivered in within the context of wedding photography, Tyrone went a step further by adding to our wedding experience with a eagerness and willingness to help however he could. All of our guests loved interacting with him and raved about what a positive presence he provided. By the end of the event, we considered him part of the family and would jump at the opportunity to work with him again. I highly recommend BeyondTheFocus for all of your photography needs.
Beyond the focus really came through for me. My destination wedding got canceled at the height of all Covid, so when I decided to revamp and have a smaller local ceremony, Greg was...
immediately available. I was able to chat with him about what I needed and he even gave me suggestions of different types of poses. My new zoom wedding went off without any issue and my photos came out amazing! Thank you so much Beyond the Focus!!

nd using their creativity to create a special day. Tyrone and his team arrived at the venue early and I never felt like I had to give them directions. They did their job and didn't add any extra stress on to me or my husband. I would use them again for future events.
Tyrone photographed our wedding in Atlanta, Ga in October of 2016 and we still get compliments on how beautiful our pictures are when people come to our home! We were a bit nervous...
about having someone come from another state for our big day but he didn’t miss a BEAT! He was punctual and kept us updated every step of the way before he arrived. He got so many shots of us getting ready that every so often I go back and look at them because the day was such a blur. We spoke a few times before the actual day so he knew exactly how the venue was set up and he knew what we wanted, he also did his own research so he could craft a vision for photos we didn’t even know we wanted! He has a great smile and gives awesome direction so all 10 of our bridesmaids stayed on queue. Once we got through the ceremony and formal pictures he did an excellent job of just blending in and taking all the candids! He even caught my mother in law being tackled during the bouquet toss (she’s ok lol). It was a stress free time and worth every penny to do business with him. You’d have to be crazy to pass up his work, professionalism and overall packages, they were his prices and more.
Tyrone did a great job with our wedding. Very professional and great quality!

or a better photographer for our special day! In fact, we loved his work and work ethic so much that he has become our go-to photographer for all photos (family, maternity, business headshots) now! He gets the job done and he does it well. You will not be disappointed!
Tyrone was amazing from our first encounter! He was very helpful, respectful and accommodating throughout the entire planning process. My husband is not a “picture guy”, but you wo...
uldn’t know that from the shots that Tyrone was able to get. The day of it was just him and somehow he was capture things in a way that I thought we had multiple photographers! He made us feel at ease all day. In our first meeting I told him that I wanted mostly candid pictures and not all of the posey typical wedding pics and man did he capture that vision with perfection! So look no more— you’ve found your photographer!
