I highly recommend Collier Studios for your engagement and wedding photos. Ryan is professional, kind, organized, detail-oriented, prompt, and takes amazing photos! We got married ...
mid-September and got sneak peaks back the next day and all of our photos back within a couple of weeks. The photos turned out incredible! Looking at them was like re-living our wedding day all over again. Ryan captured every moment perfectly and has a great eye for detail. The meetings we had with him leading up to our special day ensured for a smooth wedding day and he had all of the details worked out ahead of time taking a lot of the stress off of us. Ryan has so much experience in shooting weddings so you can rest easy knowing that your photos will be amazing and no detail will be missed or forgotten.
Ryan was wonderful to work with, I would highly recommend! We received our photos back within three weeks of the wedding with the ability to download and print them. Ryan was respo...
nsive leading up to our big day, took the time to ask detailed questions and make the day effortless. Thank you Ryan!
Ryan was very nice to work with. He asked a lot of questions when we did our meet and greet. Ryan was great with communication and responded in a timely matter to any emails. Ryan ...
got our wedding photos back to us within 2-3 weeks after our wedding and they turned out so beautiful!
Ryan is an extremely talented and easy going photographer! He is so creative and our photos turned out amazing! We would highly recommend Ryan to anyone getting married!
Ryan Collier Photography: Ryan is easy to work with, organized, responsive, and of course the pictures turned out great! We chose Ryan because (1) you actually get all of the digi...
tal rights to the photos (2) Ryan’s vibe was chill, which matched our vibe (3) Ryan’s photo style is classic/timeless. Things that we loved about Ryan was that he got our photos back to us in ~3 weeks from the wedding and he emailed us 4 shots the day after. We were so grateful to have those sneak shots immediately afterwards so we could order our Thank You cards right away and post something online. We didn’t have to ask him for it, he just sent them. Ryan was also like a ninja at the wedding, taking some stealthy candid photos. Looking back, I wish that we would have been more intentional about looking at him during the reception, ceremony, and happy hour so he could take some impromptu posed photos. His specialty is really getting those great posed pictures – even the ones that look candid, but are posed. One very impromptu moment was the picture at the end of the aisle on our way out, when he told us to stop and kiss. It was not something we expected and ended up being our favorite shot! He also made us laugh and made us feel comfortable posing intimately. Some things to note: Ryan was a one-man show. So, if having two photographers is important, you’ll have to ask if he would do that.
Ryan helped us out immensely when our original photographer had a medical issue come out of the blue at the last minute. Instead of scrambling to find a “good enough” solution, we ...
were delighted and blessed to have Ryan step up and provide a full service experience for our wedding day at Apple Mountain.
We had multiple compliments from guests on how well he handled the wedding party as well as candid shots throughout the day. Our photos we edited and made available through an online gallery, and a drive with all 800+ color corrected and edited photos was delivered to our home while we were on our honeymoon.
I give a great recommendation to Collier Studios and appreciate everything provided.
Ryan was easy to work with and truly tried to get all the best shots he could think of. He was very accommodating to location changes, posing, and last minute picture ideas. Fun, e...
asygoing, and highly skilled photographer- we highly recommend!
Thank you Ryan, for working with my last minute changes, cold weather, and crazy bridal crew to capture ALL of the important moments! I can’t believe how many pictures we got from ...
you! You were so easy to work with, kept us on task, and made sure I got all of the shots I wanted. You went above and beyond our expectations and then some. Ryan was flexible, there from start to finish, and made sure we never missed a beat. Although the weather didn’t cooperate, Ryan’s pictures turned out with fantastic quality!!! And his turn around time was impressive to say the least- getting almost 700 pictures back in less than 3 weeks! I could not have picked a better photographer to work with for the biggest day of our lives. And, “thank you” could never begin to show our gratitude.
From beginning to end, we had an incredible experience working with Ryan. Not only does Ryan provide amazing photography skills, he was easy to work with; helping us to create a de...
tailed itinerary for the day of as well as being flexible and fun throughout the process. He captured beautiful moments throughout the whole day that we will cherish forever. I would recommend Collier Studios Photography to anyone looking for a photographer for their special day!
Every single person we have showed our photos to is amazed at the beauty, artistry, quality, and talent. We only had our backyard to work with (no fancy venue, no gardens, no drivi...
ng around to various locations for photos), and Ryan managed to give us a huge variety of photos to choose from, all of which were stunning! We also gave very little direction on details and he captured things I would have never even thought to get photos of, but I am so glad he did! I know that when we look back at them, seeing all the little things that went in to making our wedding special were captured, even down to the slippers my mom bought me and the coffee mug from my sister-in-law. I cannot say enough good things about the photos. He has such vision!
Even for the party later, Ryan captured precious moments with family and friends on the dance floor and as they visited with each other. He kept an eye out for these opportunities, he was always around and didn't miss a beat!
To us, the experience was just as important, if not more important (especially to my groom/husband). We have both been in many weddings and we have had "those" photographers. You get stuck taking a million of the same photo, you end up fake smiling toward the end, and you just want to be done and get on with the partying. With Ryan, this never happened. Everything happened so timely! We finished photos very quickly (and as previously mentioned, got even more than we could have asked for). All of the groomsmen were raving about how great our photographer was to work with. He worked with us many times before the event to understand us as a couple, to see the venue (our yard), and to plan out the day. We didn't know what we were doing, but Ryan did. He helped us to schedule and figured out what would work best for us. Then, the day of, he was so flexible with us!
As you can probably tell, I could go on and on. The reality is that words cannot express how grateful we are for the work that Ryan and Collier Studios did in capturing our special day.
We will be able to reminisce and smile as we recall all the special moments for the rest of our lives because of these beautiful photographs, and we will be forever thankful.
Ryan was super easy to work with and responded timely to all emails. He was very helpful organizing everyone the day of the wedding and took so many amazing pictures I can't Tha k ...

stars is because there were some particular shots I had hoped to have that weren't discussed in enough detail I guess because we didn't get them.
