Spending time with my daughters. Taking photos.
Those are the only things I really ever want to spend my time on. My daughters are growing up so fast and I want to remember as much of it as I can. Taking photos allows me to crisply remember specific flashes of time.
Wedding photos become the memories that stick around the longest. I remember plenty about my wedding in 2013, but I don't remember the food, or the weather. I remember saying my vows, joyfully crying, dancing my butt off, and spending the whole day with people I love. I'm so glad we had a good photographer there to record it all

I can't imagine anyone better than Colin to document our wedding with breathtakingly beautiful photos! First and perhaps most importantly, Colin is a nice guy. He's friendly and personable and he immediately puts one at ease. Next, he's a consummate professional, on-time, polite, and thorough. But his photos!? He gave exactly what we'd hoped to receive. Initially, we hired someone our wedding planner suggested, but never quite felt comfortable with his dark and arty aesthetic. Colin's photos are bright and bold and lighthearted, just like us and our event! And he really seemed to have a good time with us and our friends and family. It didn't seem like work to him. We couldn't be happier! Honestly.

We couldn’t be happier with how our photos turned out. Despite the weather not being in our favor, Colin made sure to accommodate and give us the shots we hoped for. He had great energy and helped us to alleviate some nerves along the way. Highly recommend. - Aaron and Mackenzie 04.01.23

Colin and Ryan did a wonderful job! We can’t wait to see our finished photos. An added bonus was that they edited some photos at dinner and made a slideshow for guests to view while at the bar. Very professional and great to work with

We chose Colin to capture our wedding initially based on his photos of past weddings, but once we met him, we knew we had made the best choice possible. Before booking, Colin made it a point to call us and talk to us about ourselves and what we wanted in our photos. He sent us updates often and checked in on us frequently. Besides the fact that his photos are simply beautiful, Colin creates an environment where you feel so comfortable just being yourself. When we met him for our engagement shoot, we felt like we had know him for years and were so comfortable around him. For our wedding, my husband and I wanted someone who would get the candid and natural moments that happened during the day. Colin was able to move in and out of rooms and capture every single special moment to us, sometimes without us even knowing he was there. He structure the photos he needed to, and then captured all of the little moments between. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Our pictures turned out wonderful, and the experience was perfect. We would chose him over and over again.

Colin is a wonderful photographer and was flexible considering all the changes we made with our wedding. We had originally booked him for a larger event, but when the pandemic hit we cancelled with our venue and decided to have an intimate ceremony with just family. Colin was thoughtful, considerate and had such a calming presence. He had fun suggestions for the poses, and the pictures came out stunning.
