Brad Ryan Photography

rad capture candid moments from our wedding and he was able to find many fun moments that we would otherwise would have missed. Could not have asked for a better person to be working with us on our day. Brad has such a positive and laid back personality that puts anyone at ease. We have received many compliments about our pictures and don't feel that we are biased when we say that he did an excellent job!

reat he was! He kept the day running smoothly and on time, captured all the moments we wanted, and very easy to communicate with! One of the nicest guys on this planet! 10/10 recommend!

erred picture spot, then let his experience guide us and found absolutely incredible areas to photograph us. Throughout the rest of our day he moved quick and seemed to be everywhere at once. Many guests described him as a “ninja” or the like. He was there to get a great shot when you needed him. We didn’t know when he had the time but also photographed the venue and Decor extensively. He was personable, fun, reliable, professional and downright talented. His experience was obvious. MANY guests told us they loved Brad and apparently my husband’s smile is only second to his lol. Brad was THE PREMIER VENDOR who added the most value to our special day!

e beautiful.

wedding day. For us, having an excellent photographer was a very high priority. We wanted a photographer who excellent in lighting techniques and capturing “real” moments. Right away, Brad’s artistry stood out to us. Additionally, from the consultation through the delivery of the final wedding photographs, he was easy to reach by phone, text, and email. Brad photographed our engagement photo session, also. We wanted our dogs to be included in the engagement photos, and he made special efforts to recommend a dog-friendly location. He scoped out the location prior to our arrival, and he timed all of our shots so that the lighting was optimal. He took a wide variety of photographs, and we were able to use the engagement photographs to personalize our wedding day. For example, we used a silhouette shot taken from a distance as the cover of our wedding program and a “family” shot of use with our dogs within the program. Also, we used the photographs that he took of us on our guest favor tags, and we framed several of the engagement photographs to display at our reception. Brad was prompt on the wedding day, arriving early so that he could photograph my wedding dress prior to my putting it on. He then went over to the church so that he could photograph my groom and the groomsmen, as well as my arrival at the church. Brad made sure to photograph the moments that I most wanted to remember, including the look on my groom’s face when he saw me for the first time as I walked down the aisle. His photographs of the church and nuptial mass were taken respectfully, never distracting from the ongoing ceremony. After the mass, Brad took stunning shots as we exited the church. We also had a list of staged group pictures, and Brad was quick and efficient in directing our wedding party. Because of his eye for poses, composition, and lighting, Brad managed to make the staged photographs extraordinarily beautiful and interesting, and they look as if they belong on the cover of Vogue Italia or Vanity Fair. He took my bridal portraits at the church, too, as well as photographs of my husband and me in the get-away car. At Grand Geneva, where our reception was held, Brad took beautiful photographs of my husband and me at sites that were special to us as a couple. Brad also selected various locations around the resort where the scenery was ideal, and he arranged for a golf cart to take us to those locations so that I didn’t have to walk far in my dress and heels. Again, Brad took the time of day into consideration so that we could have photographs taken in a variety of lighting situations, including golden hour and nighttime. Brad also took candid shots throughout the day, and he managed to capture moments that we will cherish forever. Brad was reliable, punctual, enthusiastic, creative, communicative, and he came through for us in every way. Again, we give him our highest recommendation.

very penny. We can't thank him enough for everything and would 10/10 recommend him for anyone looking for a videographer for their wedding day.

would work with Brad again in a heartbeat. He has a definite sense of his own style and it shows in his work.

mangaged to get group photos of my extended family (like 50+ people per photo) in the dark. He got the pictures to us so fast and they are GORGEOUS! Couldn't recommend him enough!

pturing all of the right moments. He also gave us some great direction on posing since neither of us were experienced in that area and often felt awkward. Brad constantly had a smile on his face and truly made the day more fun! He reminded us to enjoy ourselves and it is clear in the photos that he helped us relax into the day with his experience and extremely personable nature. Brad also had a partner come to the ceremony to ensure that every angle of the biggest moments were captured (such as when I was walking down the aisle + getting my husband's expression). I can't say enough how his professionalism and general nature put us at ease, let alone the pictures turning out fantastic was enough to make us happy. He had several ideas for pictures outside the reception at night and was creative in how to make certain aspects popped. We would definitely recommend him and I would work with Brad again for future big moments or shoots.

party. Since pictures can take a few hours, it was so nice to have someone that was genuinely fun to hang out with. From the moment we hired Brad until meeting up with him to get our pictures, he was always easy to get a hold of and communicate with. I highly recommend Brad for any occasion!

asking the necessary questions to ensure you capture those special moments and friends and family you value dearly. Brads experience shows as he gave us advice here and there about how to move people along after family photos. He makes great use of light, working in the moment and you can really see he knows what he’s doing when you look at the photos. After their prompt arrival you can relive the memories and find each photo is more impressive than the last. All of our friends and family were very impressed and found Brad to be a polite professional gentleman. We were very pleased and grateful to have him as part of our big day. I even saw him take his camera back out as he was leaving the venue when he saw some photo opportunities he knew we would appreciate. We highly recommend Brad based on the artistic finished product, his professional attitude and his people skills.

n, he was everywhere, catching every wonderful moment. I am so truly thankful that he was available to capture such an important day. The pictures are truly stunning.

so great to work with, he was able to get all the little details I wanted and all the big group pictures, but really focused on getting all the great candid shots that always make the best pictures. Even when my husband got cranky with pictures, he laughed it off and continued to get in all those amazing shots. Thank you again Brad for your flexibility and calmness on such an amazing day!

He got to know us ahead of time, and then recommended some cool spots that spoke to our individual style (which we didn't even know existed). The way he plays with light in the pictures is just awesome, and he seriously brought out so much of our love in every shot. We couldn't be happier with all of our pics, and it was such a great experience!

highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer!

received compliments from family and friends, including the wedding party, regarding how much fun he was as well as how well he did with our photos! Thanks so much, Brad! We would recommend him 110%!

e day of my wedding, too. When we saw our photos, we couldn't stop smiling! I feel lucky that we found him and have no regrets!!

d turned them around so quickly. I knew we made the right decision but those photos solidified that. When it came to our wedding day, he was an absolute dream to work with. He was great herding all the girls for pictures and getting the unruly groomsman to behave long enough to take some outstanding pictures. We had a tight timeline for my husband and I to take our own photos but Brad made it happen and we are so happy with the results. I cannot say enough about Brad and the artistic talent he has as a photographer. I would recommend him to anyone looking to capture the perfect moments of their day.

in each and every picture that he took. He really takes the time to think about the pictures he's taking, and did a great job of allowing us to truly enjoy the day with our friends and family. Our photos turned out even better than we could've imagined, and will be wonderful memories that we will enjoy for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Brad!

ion perfectly. Leading up to our wedding day, he was great with communication and provided helpful feedback in my wedding day timeline to best accommodate everyone. My husband and I loved being able to relive our wedding day through his eyes. We've received endless compliments on our photos. We joked that he was "babysitting the sunset" so that we could get optimal photos throughout the night. He really knew the third ward well and used the brick to his advantage. I cannot recommend Brad enough to help capture the moments throughout your wedding day!

y amazing shots that I didn’t even realize he was taking. And, photos were ready within 2 weeks! We are 110% satisfied with Brad, would highly recommend.

e to see in person, as well as all of the big moments of the day was such a blessing! He is professional, fun, and his eye for getting the perfect shot is truly unparalleled. He was the first person we thought of when we wanted to get family photos taken, and he will soon be capturing the celebration of our nephew's first birthday. For your wedding day, or any day you want to remember forever through photos, Brad is the man! You will NOT be disappointed!
