Branson is the absolute best! He did our engagements, bridals, and wedding day and I love every single photo. I would hire him again and again! So easy to work with and so great at what he does.

It wasn't enough to have Branson in charge of only our wedding flowers; his photography was a literal dream as well!! I initially met him at a wedding showcase and only later found out he is a jack-of-all-trades with some of the most beautiful photographs and video work I've ever seen! I just knew I couldn't pass him up! We already had a videographer booked, otherwise, we wouldn't have hesitated to book Branson for BOTH!
It was SO much fun to have him be such a grand part of our wedding. He is incredibly attentive to details and couldn't be any more charismatic and easy to work with. He made my now-husband and me feel very comfortable during our formal session photo shots, as well as on our wedding day- being comfortable, looking candid, all while being the center of attention, which I feel is so very important for great photos! Branson was great at keeping watch on time and grabbing us for pictures when we said we wanted them, or at sunset for a quick surprise session when the lighting was absolutely perfect (some of my favorite shots were during that time)!!
I knew we would love the final products, but to be honest, I couldn't quite believe how incredible these professional photos turned out!! They came very quickly (within just 1 month of our wedding date) and I fell in love with each photo and can't share them enough haha. These are some of the best and only memories from that beautiful and perfect wedding day, so when you consider skimping on a photographer/videographer for your own wedding day, DEFINITELY DON'T haha. I would absolutely recommend Branson to everyone I know and don't!! :)
Any questions?

Branson and his team covered our wedding reception and bridals/formals for our celebration. There are not enough words to describe the amazing talent and artistry that Branson possesses. Branson and his team (2nd shooter, videographer) are nothing short of fantastic. From start to finish Branson and his team provided a photojournalistic style that captured all of the little details of our reception and venue in addition to candid and posed shots. Branson was easy to communicate with, responsive, and put me at ease right away. It was so nice to have a vendor who had every detail figured out and gave me the easiest timeline to follow. Branson and his team were extremely professional and captured so many shots that were remarkable, I seriously don't think he took a bad shot. He is a MASTER of his craft and worth every solid penny! It is hard as a bride to try and decipher a 'good' photographer from a 'great' photographer. You can find a number of photographers to capture your day and while they may do a 'good job'... Branson Maxwell and his team are far above!!! HE IS WORTH THE INVESTMENT of your lifetime of memories. Branson Maxwell is THE BEST and I can unequivocally state that I would book him for any future needs in a heartbeat. I KNOW my photos will last a lifetime and Branson Maxwell is the BEST photographer you will ever come across. BOOK HIM, you will NOT regret the investment!

Branson photographed me for a styled shoot. You can see how beautiful his photos turn out on instagram but in person and working with him he is so professional, great at directing, and both easy and fun to work with and be around. He made it so fun and easy to communicate with.

Branson did such an amazing job. We truly had no idea what we were doing as we had never taken professional pictures before but Branson made the whole process so easy. We did bridals, the ceremony, and reception and it was all so perfect. Great guy who takes great pictures.

Branson Maxwell Photography provided outstanding photography and videography services for our daughter's Logan. Utah engagement, wedding and reception in March 2024. Based in Salt Lake City, Utah, Branson's professionalism and talent were evident from our first meeting.
On our daughter's wedding day, Branson's team were punctual, prepared, and incredibly personable. They effortlessly blended into the background, capturing every special moment without being intrusive. The photographs are stunning — every shot beautifully composed and perfectly lit, showcasing the natural beauty of the Logan, Utah Temple and the genuine emotions of the day.
The videography exceeded our expectations. The final video is a cinematic masterpiece, expertly edited to highlight the most memorable parts of our celebration. The quality of both the visuals and the audio is impeccable, ensuring we can relive the magic of our daughter's wedding for years to come.
The Branson Maxwell Photography team's attention to detail, creative vision, and dedication to their craft were evident throughout the entire process. They were responsive to our needs and provided invaluable guidance, making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable.
We couldn't be happier with Branson Maxwell Photography and wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone seeking top-tier wedding photography and videography.
Thank you, Branson Maxwell Photography, for capturing our special day so beautifully!

Branson’s team did both my wedding photos and video and I was blown away! Seriously obsessed with our photos and video and I am so happy with how everything turned out. Branson’s team responded to all my questions via email and text almost immediately though out the entire process and they have streamlined everything. They were amazing at posing us, directing our families, and maintaining a professional and fun atmosphere. His team also did our florals and now I have the most Pinterest worthy photos with beautiful floral backdrops. Hiring Branson’s team for the photos, videos, and florals was the best decision we made for our wedding!

Branson Maxwell and his team were absolutely incredible to work with! To state that the photographs / video aspects of a wedding are the most memorable part of the big day is an understatement. You absolutely have to find someone with the experience and expertise to not only listen to your specific ideas and overall vision of what you want, but someone who can go several steps further to give you the perfect experience you're going for (that you didn't even know you wanted!). Branson is the very best, hands down, and it shows in every single photo and video frame he captures. I'm in love with my wedding photos, wedding video, and the incredible drone shots incorporated into the video. From the formals to the flat lays, to how nice and down to earth Branson and his crew were - from beginning to end - it truly was a pleasure to work with them all. Hire him! You will not be sorry!

Branson was absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! He was so professional and was very good at making sure everything was on time. He has an eye for the best shots. He is so talented and just the nicest person. He was timely and organized. He was great with answering questions and making sure we had all of the shots we wanted. He made sure that we were able to enjoy our day while also getting the photos we wanted like golden hour photos. He was efficient. I could not recommend him more!!! I would use him a million times over again and loved him!!! Highly highly highly recommend!!!

Branson Maxwell and his team are amazing! Our photographer, Michael, worked so hard the entire evening of our wedding. He did a great job scoping out the venue for great places to take photos and he was so energetic and fun as well! We have received the most compliments about him of all our vendors. Branson did an amazing job editing our photos so that they looked natural and gorgeous. I am so glad we went with this vendor- great price, great end product!!

Branson is a fantastic wedding photographer! My wife and I had him take our wedding pictures in Brooklyn and we absolutely loved working with him - he's very down to earth and easy to work with. He was also early to our venue, which was great! We had a couple of mishaps re: lost wedding bands at the beginning of our ceremony, and he was patient and got some amazing shots in during that time - which is crazy because we were quite stressed! All in all, he made us feel very comfortable getting our pictures taken. Also, we got our pictures back much sooner than we were expecting and they were all so good!

I cried (not joking I teared up) looking at my wedding photos for the first time. Me and my husband were gasping and screaming over how incredible EVERY SINGLE PHOTO turned out and how good Branson made us look. OUR PHOTOS WERE MAGICAL. I never worried about anything and Branson completely took care of every pose and lighting situation. All of the groomsmen and bridal party loved Branson and even got him to dance at the end of the night! It felt like he was part of the wedding party. He made our photos 10X's better than we ever expected.

HIRING BRANSON WAS THE BEST DECISION I MADE FOR MY WEDDING. He made my wedding photos look SO DREAMY and I cry every time I watch my wedding video. HE IS SO INCREDIBLY TALENTED at both photo and video and always made us look better than we look in person. My skin is literally GLOWING in my photos! He is very sociable and was good with posing my large family. I AM OBSESSED with how good my family shots turned out. Seriously. So artistic and full of light. I CAN NOT EXPRESS ENOUGH how fun it was to have Branson as our photographer and videographer. He made every effort to make our footage look incredible and I always get so many compliments on how my photos and wedding video turned out. HIRE BRANSON. Worth every penny and the quality of his work is so nice and detailed I have my photos printed huge all over my living room! AGH thank you thank you so much Branson hiring you was a dream come true.

Branson is such a talented, thoughtful photographer. While our styles aligned, he really listened to what I was envisioning and executed flawlessly. He captured moments I would have never seen, and made us incredible memories for a lifetime. He is professional, has excellent communication, is presentable, and most of all just a very kind person!

My husband and I got married this year and hired Branson to do our wedding videography after finding his work online and really liking his style and quality of films. He was very accommodating throughout the booking process and very professional and easy going on our big day. We ended up loving our wedding film and would definitely recommend!

It took us long time to find a videographer that is able to capture moments and emotions in an artistic way while also capturing the couples’ characteristics during a wedding. Branson exceeded our expectations. He was very professional and easy to work with. He put us at ease from the beginning and captured so many wonderful moments. He meshed himself in whatever was going on without being noticed. He also worked so well with our photographers that both our wedding video and photos turned out so well. We absolutely love our wedding video and can’t help watching it again and again. It is so perfect and captured exactly how we remember the wedding day: lots of laughters, happiness and tears of joy. Every time when we watched it, our emotions are overflowing. We are so thankful that Branson made our special day a wonderful memory to last forever. We can recommend him to anyone we come into contact with!

He's such a genuine person who truly cares about the people he works with. He delivers the quality that people expect when they are investing as much as people typically do in video and photo work. I highly recommend him and hope that his business continues to grow! His pricing is competitive, but his quality is exceptional. I promise you will not be disappointed.
