d video, it felt like we were working with our best friends—except these best friends just happen to be incredibly talented professionals. They instantly put us at ease, made us laugh, and somehow managed to be everywhere without ever being intrusive. They captured the big emotional moments and the tiny, beautiful in-between ones that we didn’t even realize were happening. They didn’t just show up with cameras—they showed up with care, excitement, and the kind of energy you want surrounding you on such an important day. If you're looking for more than just vendors—if you want people who will hype you up, calm you down, and make you feel like a million bucks while capturing the most important day of your life—stop your search now. We couldn’t love them more, and we’ll be recommending them to everyone we know!

my expectations!! Hire them for all photography and videography- you won't be disappointed :)

nt photos, wedding day and conversations after we could not have been more pleased with them. Their ability to break down a schedule and keep everyone on time, the skill to capture special moments and posed photos, and all the help throughout our wedding day was more than we could’ve asked for. When you hire Courtney and Dylan you get partners and friends, rather than a vendor. You spend so much time on your wedding day with your photographers, we were so grateful that Courtney and Dylan were ours. There is no one better in the industry!

ement and wedding photos! We were so grateful to have Courtney & Dylan throughout our wedding day—they were positive, professional and flexible when plans needed to change! They really struck the perfect balance of being there to capture every moment while also giving us the space to just experience our wedding day (i.e., it didn't feel like we were taking pictures for hours)! We are so in love with our wedding photos and will be looking at them for years to come! Thank you for these perfect memories! 🫶🏻🤍

on for our engagement session come to life at our favorite bar, Civil Life and I’m still in awe at how good we both look in them. Even on our wedding day they created an easy going and comfortable environment for not only us, but our friends and family too. Their team was very professional and maintained a great flow throughout the day. Courtney was so quick to send us a sneak peak and I can’t wait to see the rest!! They are truly the sweetest people and we will definitely be using them for every life event moving forward.

nt days of my husband and I’s lives. They are absolutely hands down one of THE BEST vendors I had. Not only were they our photographers, but they are also people I consider friends. They were looking out for me during the whole wedding day, fixing my dress, asking if I was doing okay/needed anything. Total icons. I would book them over and over again. Also, we got sneak peek photos within 24 hours of our wedding!!!

we wanted included, they had no problem wrangling everyone and had so much fun with us! Courtney was so easy to work with and made me feel so confident that our day would be just as we wanted it. Thank you so much for capturing everything so perfectly!

ave such kind hearts and will go above and beyond for you! They are super responsive and were by far the best vendor we hired for our wedding! Our previews look fantastic and we are looking forward to the full album. As an added bonus, they are so fast at getting photos back to you!

taking photos and videos, hype people, and amazing coordination look no further! We are forever grateful for them and all that they did for us on our wedding day! We are looking forward to showing off these pictures for years to come!

xperience very easy and fun! Additionally, when our bus service canceled day of the wedding, Courtney and Dylan hopped into action to help our wedding planner solve the problem and find another service , and managed to solve the issue without us ever knowing! My husband and I are thrilled with the fantastic pictures of our engagement session and wedding day.

are story tellers. We are so grateful for the way that they went above and beyond on our wedding day, taking care not only of us but those important to us - they won't just stop at taking photos and video. They'll laugh and feel with you: They might even scrub dirt off of your dress and get you a shot ;) I can't recommend them enough!

remely personable and have the ability to make everyone feel comfortable and confident during their photo shoots. My husband and I never had professional pictures taken before. We were very nervous, to say the least. All that changed within minutes of meeting Courtney and Dylan. It was like I had known them for years! They truly went above and beyond our expectations. You can tell they genuinely care about their clients and will do whatever they need to make your day special. My wedding party absolutely adored them and had a blast during the photo shoot. The pictures turned out even better than I thought was possible. Do yourself a favor and use them for all your photography needs!! You will not regret it!

rk with. They are very creative and know exactly what they are doing to get the perfect shots, even for people like us that are not super comfortable in front of the camera. Courtney was great about getting our little niece to look at the camera and kept people posed and in check so that the timeline was efficient throughout the day. It was fun to see Courtney and Dylan get excited about good shots and made me all the more excited on our day. At different times, Courtney and Dylan both checked on Scott and I when we were getting into stress mode and were really there to help bring us down. Our second photographer, Megan, was also very sweet and helpful throughout the day. It was really fun to work with them all. We were so obsessed with our engagement photos and are already in love with our wedding sneak peeks. I most definitely will recommend CMS to anyone that asks and will hopefully be using them for family sessions in the future.

thing we needed. Dylan even helped my buckle my shoes when I couldn't reach! Courtney was there to answer all my questions leading up to the day. We've seen the sneak peek of our photos and videos, and I can't stop smiling when I see them! They are STUNNING. We were in such good hands. It's obvious that Courtney and Dylan love what they do and that made for a perfect wedding day.

ew from the very beginning I wanted CMS to shoot our wedding because of her style. I reached out and immediately got responses. They are so professional to work with. Any time I had questions, they answered them so quickly. They communicate so well. Their work is beautiful. I don’t think I could imagine my wedding without them. The day off, they really bell relieve some stress off of you. They make you and your wedding party feel so comfortable. I can not recommend them enough. They are the best team!

d numerous guests compliment their professionalism and energy. Dylan made sure I had everything I needed throughout the day and took care of any issues that popped up. Courtney even had a sneak peak within 24 hrs and they were breathtaking! I am so thankful to have hired them to capture my wedding day!!!

h fun! There were some random last minute things on our wedding day that popped up and Courtney and Dylan were completely ready and handled everything without a single issue. We are so, so glad to have booked them for our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made! Seriously book them and you'll be so happy you did!

d! At our engagement session, Courtney made the whole process seem so easy. We both felt nervous/awkward for professional photos, but she knew exactly what to do to make our photos turn out perfectly. And then on our wedding day, Courtney and Dylan were so wonderful to work with. They helped me relax/remain calm and were constantly offering to help with anything I needed on my big day. And being a stressed out bride, that truly means the world to you on your wedding day. Both of them worked so well with our family/bridal party and all of the other vendors. Everything went very smoothly too. That is all I can ask for on my wedding day! I just received our wedding photos a few weeks ago and they are so beautiful! I cannot wait to print them out, display them, and show them to our families. I cannot wait to see our wedding video, we loved the sneak peak one! Thank you Courtney and Dylan for making our day extra special!

Y with them! They make you feel so very comfortable and bring all the good energy! They are task-oriented but smile and enjoy your loved ones as they work hard. Courtney and Dylan are simply amazing. They bring tears to my eyes when I think of them now. They captivated our day better than I could ever have dreamed. We are eternally grateful for their service and hearts.

and made our wedding vision come true. She is also so honest and real. We are so thrilled with the photography service we received from CMS and will forever recommend them to everyone!

y husband and I were looking for in our wedding photos. Courtney listened to all of our do’s/do not’s and silly requests on locations and ideas, even though she is the true professional! She and Dylan then brought our vision to life! Their work is exceptional - and we even had a sneak peak within 24 hours. Dylan and Courtney work in sync with each other to ensure the picture process remains fun and easy - even with a wedding party of 30+ people! Their ability to maintain the attention of large groups while also producing incredible photos is truly amazing! We would choose CMS photography all over again if we had the opportunity - highly recommend!!

e become FRIENDS. I don’t think many can say they have become friends with their photographers after hiring them. Following the engagement session, they photographed our destination cruise wedding beautifully. They really blended into our family, like we had known them for a lifetime! We couldn’t be more happy with our wedding photos and video. So stunning!! They put a smile on our face every time we see them hanging on our walls. They are so beautiful! We then had a wedding reception here in STL that they captured, as well as newborn photos of our sweet baby boy. We have most definitely found our family photographer forever. They really are the greatest.

have Dylan her husband work with her and capture our video. From the day we booked CMS, to our engagement session and phone calls all the way up until our wedding day, Courtney & Dylan were so great to work with. It was such a great feeling not having to worry about how the pictures & video were going to turn out because they are just SO good at what they do. They are most certainly the best hype duo to have with you on your wedding day. We are so lucky to have them in our lives. I recommend them to anyone who is looking for a photo/video team!!

INCREDIBLE and PERFECT photos and videos they captured of our big day! They both have such a relaxing and calming presence yet still bring so much fun and life to a shoot and their work! Courtney and Dylan were thoughtful, kind, timely, responsive, and so genuine throughout the entire process. They truly feel like family now and I would recommend them for anyone’s photo/video needs! We are so thankful for them ❤️

gy! They are truly so good at zapping your anxiety and worries and putting you at ease with yourself. They are incredibly kind and easy going and it sets the stage to how you feel while you are getting pictures captured! 2. The husband wife duo. At times, Dylan and Courtney would pose for us (in an adorable way) and gave us the cutest visuals to go by! 3. Their creativity is remarkable. Courtney was so cute when she told us to put on our favorite song as we danced and she snapped pictures! 4. Their timeliness and professionalism. A sneak peak of our time together was here before I blinked. And then they made so many photos assessible to us to enjoy forever! 5. I feel like they just get it. Some comments that they wrote about our session together still make me want to cry happy tears. They embed who you are and just capture it so beautifully. They will leave you feeling happier and SO pleased with their work. I cannot wait to see what the big day will look like. We will use them for EVERY special day to come.

ures and wedding video ended up AMAZING. We will definitely treasure them forever.

lans. Throughout it all Courtney and Dylan worked with us and continued to make things easy when there were so many changes happening overall. Their dedication and just excitement for doing what they do makes us so happy with our decision in having them be a part of our big day! They are really a great team and they part you feel apart of the family. We cannot recommend them enough.

ers and videographers do. Not only are they transparent with their business, they are also overwhelming kind and thoughtful people that truly sets the foundation for their business. I receive 15+ wedding images as a sneak peak 24 HOURS after my wedding, and my wedding was a out of town for them! I also receive a sneak peak of my video within 2 weeks of the wedding. THIS IS UNHEARD OF IN THIS INDUSTRY! Photographers and videographers are ESSENTIAL to your wedding day, they are literally the people you will spend 90% of your day with and Courtney and Dylan are the people you want to spend your day with. They make you laugh when things out of your control happen, fix your hair when the wind picks up, hold your flowers when they get to heavy, and creatively come up with new ideas to make you and your new spouse the spotlight. 10/10 recommend for anyone looking for a wedding photographer/videographer or even just some personal photos done, because every client and session mean so much to them and they do everything they can for it!

s, professionalism, and outstanding quality of photos/ video. Courtney puts her whole soul into her photos just as Dylan puts everything into your videos. They truly care about giving you a quality product and a quality experience. Courtney and Dylan have taken photos for us 3 times- engagement, wedding, and wedding round 2! Dylan has also taken video of us twice. We will continue to choose Courtney and Dylan for our major life events! Could not love our photo & videos from them more!

nd is SO talented at what she does. I decided after doing engagement photos I wanted videography also. Dylan did NOT disappoint! He is so kind and full of attention to detail. I honestly feel like I hit the jackpot when I found them❤️ Thank you for capturing our love and being the best team Matt and I could ask for. We love you guys!

Guffey are truly the power duo you’ve been searching for! Not only do they answer any and all questions you may have during your wedding planning process, but they are truly there to support you and make you feel so comfortable as well. On the day of our wedding, I was so appreciative that Courtney and Dylan were constantly checking in with me and asking how I was doing. They captured every single moment of our wedding day so effortlessly! Our wedding video was so perfectly tailored to our personalities and included all of the most special moments of our wedding day. The artistic abilities that both Courtney and Dylan possess are truly amazing! We can’t wait to continue to support their business in the future!

wedding day. Courtney and Dylan are very thorough with what you can expect and when you can expect your pictures and video. They meet their deadlines and stay true to their word! They work up a timeline for the day of and make sure everything goes smoothly. Courtney is always there to fix your hair, your dress, fans you if you're too hot, she makes sure you are GOOD! Dylan, believe it or not he helped show me how to walk in my dress without tripping lol! They both make jokes to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. They are your biggest cheerleaders on your big day and you won't regret having them as part of it! BOOK CMS! <3

photographer or videographer again. I called Courtney and talked to her for 5 minutes before knowing they were who we wanted to go with. When they weren't available for our wedding date we decided to go back to the drawing board and change our date. I knew I wanted both of them and was willing to change the date so we could have them and WOW, I will never regret that decision. From day 1 they were the most helpful In the planning process. The most understanding and just all around two of the greatest humans I have ever met. Every time we were with them, talking to them, whatever it was we felt like they were just two great friends helping to make this day as special as possible. Dylan actually took our first set of engagement photos and they were incredible. Then because of an foot break for Courtney, she offered us a second engagement session with her since she was unable to do it originally and those pics were just as amazing as the first and both sessions were so fun. We would not have even needed a second session but because we genuinely loved those two humans we wanted to get to spend more time with them and we had a blast. Leading up to the wedding we had a few calls and each call made me as a stressed bride feel a sense of relief. They helped come up with some extremely sweet ideas and ways to connect my grandparents who due to covid were unable to travel and attend the wedding. That is something I will never be able to thank them enough for. From the moment they walked into the wedding and Dylan telling me he got clearance to fly the drone, to the final moment they left where I really didn't want them to leave (not just to take pictures but to stay and party with us). We could not have had a better wedding day and that is in HUGE thanks to them. I look through our sneak peek of pics and watch the teaser video literally EVERYDAY and every time I see something different and laugh/cry/smile ear to ear every single time. They are truly the greatest humans and so incredibly talented. I will never stop referring people to them and can not wait to see them at the few weddings I know the brides have hired them for coming up in the next year. Sincerely love them and hope to continue a relationship In the future. Ready to book our next session already, just have to make up an excuse to my husband as to why I think we need more pics done already!

eeping the day easy & fun! Their editing skills are top tier and the turn around time is so spot on! 10/10 perfection!! You won’t be disappointed booking them!!

part in making our wedding day so enjoyable - they were so much fun to be around, made everyone feel comfortable, and were helping with things way beyond what I would have expected from our photographers! When I was first looking for photographers, I mostly focused on what their photography style, which is obviously important, but I think it's also just as important to have photographers that you actually like and would enjoy spending the entire day with (because you do)! We feel so lucky to have had both Courtney and Dylan with us on our day, and we truly could not have picked anyone better.

id everything they could to make all of our wedding dreams come true. Our bridal party loved them and our guests even commented on how great they were. We are so in love with our photos and cannot wait to look back on them for the rest of our lives. They are so very talented, personable, and down to earth. They work so well together and with other vendors. They have been such a blessing to our lives. 🤍 We strongly recommend CMS photography for all of your wedding photography needs. We could not thank them enough. ☺️

le picture was perfect.

hem 10000%

and personalities from the engagement session, but they were amazing on the wedding day! They helped us with whatever we needed that day. They came up with several fun ideas for pictures and got all of the family pictures we wanted. They have such fun personalities that made everyone-old and young-want to smile! They also knew how to keep everything moving, and sometimes that's not an easy task. We can't recommend these two enough! Beyond happy with Courtney and Dylan.

that I didn’t even know I would want! They made us feel so comfortable and important and I couldn’t imagine not having them there. Dylan even helped with some buttons on my dress because all the girls had on fake nails! Lol seriously the best couple and I would choose them over and over again ❤️❤️

mazing job and is so easy to work with. They were super supportive after we had to postpone our wedding and they worked with us every step of the way. We plan on using them in the future when we start our family. They truly are amazing!!!

mily and wedding party coming up to me saying how awesome the photographers were! Courtney and Dylan are seriously the best and helped make our day so special! They were so easy and fun to work with and kept everything organized! They helped us navigate through the rainy forecast and change picture locations more than once! They gave us family portrait ideas that we didn’t even have on our list! And, they saved the day when our bus broke down on the way to take pictures. Courtney came straight to us to help us and our wedding party decide what to do and Dylan jumped right in and talked to the bus driver! With no hesitation, they cleaned out their car and drove my husband and I around to do our pictures! They helped with my dress, veil, flowers, helped me in and out of their car, kept me warm and dry in the rain, and were so fun and easy to talk to in the car! They were absolutely amazing and so accommodating with all of the changes! I am sure I am forgetting some things, but I want to thank Courtney and Dylan for everything!! If you are looking for incredible photographers, Courtney and Dylan with CMS Photography + Film LLC are the ones!! I cannot wait to see all of their photos!! ❤️
