This review is for Dennis's photography of a bachelorette weekend that I organized -- he took photos of the bride with her 5 closest friends in Charleston, SC, and he was amazing! Sadly the bride had already signed a contract for a wedding phot...ographer local to where her wedding is happening -- but if she hadn't, I am certain she would have booked Dennis for her wedding, as well!
This is an absolute RAVE review -- I can't say enough good things about Dennis!
TL;DR:
- Super warm, friendly, personable photographer
- Very talented at getting camera-shy people to relax in front of the camera
- Clearly an expert at using natural light, as well as using flash to supplement when natural light isn't sufficient
- Excellent at corralling difficult/unruly people (e.g., tipsy, distracted types) into the frame & into the right poses, at the right time
- Incredible customer service, both before the photoshoot, during, and after --> sent us edited photos in record time after the event
Dennis was an absolute bargain, and a pleasure to work with - book him now!
Details:
Recently, I helped plan my best friend’s bachelorette party in Charleston. Last minute, her fiancé said he wanted to book a surprise photoshoot for the group of 6 people — despite the bride & her friends generally being camera-shy. I was nervous about the idea, but it ended up being amazing — which is ALL thanks to Dennis and his great personality & talent behind the camera!
Dennis completely outdid himself in selecting the most perfect locations for the photos and the most beautiful backdrops. Most importantly, though, he created a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere, meaning that everyone in the group (including those of the group who are usually very camera-shy) felt very comfortable - it was almost as if we were just hanging out by ourselves, laughing together. The photos he took captured the special bond between us as friends as well as the beauty of Charleston. They were way better than what I had hoped for -- he’s so talented that you can't even tell one of us had come in from a redeye or that we’d all just finished a lengthy wine tasting!
Not only that, but our photos were uploaded and shared with us in a timely manner, allowing us to choose our favorites and share them quickly with family and friends.
The level of customer service was unparalleled. It was clear Dennis wanted to ensure our satisfaction with his work AND ensure that we had a great & fun experience.
We can't thank Dennis enough for making the most incredible memories of our special sunset evening in Charleston. Highly recommend Dennis for any type of photos (e.g., family, engagement, wedding, bachelorette, modeling) - you won't regret it!
I would happily book Dennis again (frankly I’m even considering doing my own bachelorette in Charleston, largely so that I can book Dennis again), and I recommend that anyone with photography needs in the Charleston area book Dennis right away.
