Dave is a super talented and professional photographer and we’re so happy we chose him for our wedding. Dave’s prices were by far the most reasonable and we loved his personality from our initial conversation. We chose his package that had 8 hours of coverage and video as well. From day one through the engagement photo session all the day to the wedding Dave was responsive, professional and super easy to work with. For our engagement photo session Dave gave us recommendations on locations and outfits and he did an amazing job on the photos. He even stayed extra time beyond 60 minutes to make sure we had all the shots we wanted. The engagement photos came quickly and looked amazing. About two weeks or so before the wedding our planner set up a call with us and Dave and Dave asked questions and was very engaged making sure he knew every detail of the photo timeline. Dave worked closely with us to make sure we got all the shots we wanted at our wedding. On the day of our wedding Dave showed up with his assistant photographer and videographer and they made sure we stayed on schedule and did an amazing job. We received our photos about a week and half later and we loved them! We are so happy with our decision to work with Dave and his team and we definitely recommend him to anyone looking for an awesome photographer!

Thank you for the thoughtful review. It was great to work with you and Steven to capture your whole wedding day !
Dave was excellent! His prices were very reasonable- our package included about 8 hours, 2 photographers, engagement session, and a personalized photo album. Dave works well with payment plans, and kept in touch consistently. He's quick to edit too- I had our engagement pictures next day, wedding photos only took about 3 days. I had a Spring wedding, and his editing style was perfect for the vision I had for more natural-looking photos.

Casey it was our honor to photograph your wedding. I was happy everything worked out from the engagement photography through the wedding. Glad you are enjoying the photos and album
Dave did the video streaming for my sister's wedding a few years ago and his work was exceptional, so naturally, I reached out to him to provide similar services for my April 2023 wedding. Dave is highly responsive, rates are reasonable, quality of the video streaming and video are exceptional. Highly recommend Dave and his associates video streaming services.

Anne thank you for the review. It was our honor to provide live streaming for your wedding ceremony !
Any questions?
Dave and his team were wonderful from beginning to end. We had a unique wedding that made planning and logistics difficult, but Dave was tirelessly patient and professional as he helped us put together our perfect wedding that was enjoyed by our friends and family in person and abroad courtesy of the zoom stream. The video footage was also first rate and we know that we will enjoy re-living the captured memories for years to come! Thank you Dave and team!

Thank you for the review. We enjoyed filming and live streaming your wedding ceremony and filming your reception. I am glad everything worked out. Thank You for your trust in me.
We were so pleased with our experience with Dave from start to finish! We had a shorter timeline in planning our wedding, but Dave was there every step of the way to guide us! He made sure we looked great in our photos and video and we are so pleased with the final product! His professionalism was complimented by several of our wedding day guests as he made everything run so smoothly! I would 100% recommend his photography and video service to any of my close friends getting married!

uples photos at sunset.
We absolutely loved the photographs that we have seen by wedding photographer Dave McIntosh and we were so delighted that he was available for our wedding!
Prior to the wedding, Dave talked with us to learn our needs and to communicate to us the process of photographing the day. We learned a lot with this meeting and it gave us so much confidence that we had placed the task of taking pictures into the right hands. Dave also followed up this meeting with several communications to zero in on our preferences and to inform us of the timetable of how he would work during the day. His communication was outstanding!
On the actual day of the wedding, we were so excited but also very nervous about everything. Dave arrived early, and with his experience, he was able to offer some suggestions and he even went beyond what we expected and helped us with some last minute changes. We wanted everything to be perfect and we were worried about several things, but Dave put our mind at ease and continued to restore the calm.
What we learned from working with Dave is that it isn’t just the quality of pictures, but a good photographer will also consider telling a story and helping us with some of the unexpected things that arose. As our photographer, he helped make it a day that we will never forget.
Dave sent the digital photos to us a few days after the wedding and we could not believe what he provided to us. Our wedding took place in a dimly lit church interior, but you could see our faces and those of our family so clearly that we still don’t know how he managed this feat. We look at these pictures and cannot help to smile because he captured everything so beautifully.
We will always remember our special wedding day, and as we grow older together as a couple, Dave’s pictures will allow us to enjoy those memories time and time again. Each time we look at them, it is like we relive our wedding as he took pictures throughout the day and captured so many unique and memorable moments. Dave was the absolute best photographer and we know that he will bless many other couples with his talents!

It was truly my honor to be there for you to photograph your wedding. It was truly a memorable day. My plans for photos in the park next to the church were nearly spoiled with the fair taking place but we made it work and you were e...

Dave did our engagement shoot as well as our wedding. From start to finish, he was awesome! Super responsive, fairly priced and provided us with amazing pictures. We couldn't be happier, highly recommend!

thank you for the review. I really enjoyed working with you at that beautiful venue. You had a fantastic wedding and I was happy to be a small part of it and to capture the memories for you.
I am so glad we decided to work with Dave! From the engagement shoot to the wedding day, Dave exceeded our expectations. He and his team are super professional and make everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos came out beautifully and the turn around time was faster than expected. I’m beyond thrilled with our entire experience! If I ever need a photographer again I am calling Dave for sure!
Thanks to Dave, we are able to relive all the memories of our wonderful day! He was able to capture moments and details that were lost to us throughout our busy night, which made his services invaluable. We were surprise how quickly he got the initial pictures back to us. If you are looking for an attentive photographer for your wedding, Dave is your man! Dave asked us about what we wanted but went above and beyond.

Thank you for the review. I really appreciate it. I enjoyed working with you and Jeff and capturing your special day. Your smile is amazing and I can tell you and Jeff really enjoyed the day.
Working with Dave was amazing! He is really easy to talk to, has a great eye, and was able to help us really get the most out of our wedding! We also went through him for our videographer and the ceremony video was AMAZING! I absolutely recommend him to anyone planning a wedding!!!

William thank you for the review. I enjoyed working with you and Lori to capture your day in photos. I am glad you like the video also. That venue is certainly one of a kind and fits your personalities to a T. Best wishes.
We had our wedding at our home this past September and I found Dave through several searches on Google for an affordable photographer. Not only was he reasonably priced, he did an amazing job capturing so many special moments on our big day. He was very efficient and professional the whole time he was with us. And he managed to get our photos back to us almost immediately after the wedding. They looked just as magical as our day felt. I would 100% reccomend Dave as a wedding photographer for anyone looking for someone to trust to capture their special day.

Thank you for the nice review. It was my honor to photograph your wedding to Enis and to meet your close friends and family. It was an amazing day and I am happy you are enjoying the photos
We hired Dave McIntosh Photographics for our daughter's wedding. Dave sent Jason W. out to shoot the wedding, and he did a fabulous job. He was professional, had great ideas for photos and was a pleasure to work with. Dave edited the photos and we received the finished photos just three days after the wedding. The entire experience with this company from the initial phone call to receiving the photos was a positive one. I would definitely recommend Dave McIntosh Photographics.

Stacey thank you for selecting us for your daughter's wedding. It was very easy to communicate and work with you to capture the photos you wanted. I am glad you are happy with them.
Dave did a great job as our wedding photographer. He was organized easy to communicate with during the whole process and he was amazing at keeping us on schedule to get the shots we wanted. Most important of all, the pictures turned out great! The guests enjoyed interacting with him as well.

Darrion I enjoyed working with you to capture your wedding. Everything worked out perfectly.

Hi Corrine
Your wedding at Overhills Mansion was beautiful. You and Sam were both so relaxed and everything went according to plan. I am glad you made me part of your wedding day.
I would highly recommend Dave to anyone! He was extremely professional and very reasonably priced. We had an introduction meeting and he instantly made us feel at ease, with his knowledge and experience. He answered all of my questions quickly from the day we met, to my wedding day. We went over our expectations and shot list and Dave produced exactly what we had hoped for and then some! He made my wedding day completely stress free by following our shot list and directing our groups to get the very best pictures. It was exactly what we wanted from a photographer! Our guests raved about how great Dave and his assistant Jason were. Our final photos came back quickly as promised, and are PERFECT. I couldn’t have imagined anything better. We will cherish our photos for years to come.
Dave and his team are incredible. They got us everything we wanted and more. They were professional, efficient but also very kind and made the day feel so special. They captured every moment we wanted and so much more. They made sure we were able to get to everything on time and had the shots of our dream. Dave literally was a dream come true for a photographer and we’re trying to figure out when we can have something big enough where we can work with him again because he was that amazing. No question he’s the best wedding photographer.
Where to begin?!
From the first moment that we spoke with Dave, we knew we were in good hands. Our friend had recommended Dave to us based on her wedding, and we are so glad she did.
In our intro calls, Dave made it clear to us that he is flexible around our style/preferences, and this was very true throughout every step of the process. He came and did an engagement shoot for us where he braved a hot NYC day and endless pedestrians to capture a ton of amazing shots, all with a smile on his face througout.
Leading up to the wedding, we spoke with Dave multiple times to go over the schedules, preferred photos we were looking for, etc. Where we were often frantic and anxious, Dave was calm and incredibly helpful on pointers regarding photos we may want and recommendations on capturing the day.
On our wedding day itself, Dave and his team really shined. They were prompt, professional, dealt with any twists/turns throughout the day, and most importantly - captured endless amazing photos. Dave went above and beyond to capture great angles, get in the mix of the partying to get great action shots, and know just the right level of pushiness so that we get the photos that we dreamed of.
We could write many more paragraphs about how great Dave was, but at risk of running on too much, will just say that we are so happy we chose Dave to work with us on our big day and are confident he will be amazing for any event!

Jonah you and Jenna were absolutely were fantastic to work with. It always helps me when you know what you like and can tell me what you want ahead of time. On the wedding day you were not overwhelmed and we truly enjoyed working with you to ...
capture the portraits and candids throughout the day.
Dave was fantastic! From our initial email he was so quick to respond every time we reached out to him, and he set up a meeting with us right away to answer our questions. His pricing is extremely reasonable, especially given how experienced he is and the quality of his work. Dave is super knowledgeable, talented, organized, patient, and a pleasure to work with. He got so many gorgeous shots of me with my husband and our families (and remembered to take portraits that I had forgotten about!), and then lots of lovely shots throughout the night. The most incredible part was that he got the photos out to us within 3 days of shooting! Over 500 pictures! They're available for download from an online gallery, he's going to send us a zip file, and he's mailing us a USB, as well. What a gem. He did a wonderful job and we loved working with him. I would highly highly recommend him for any event or special occasion! THANK YOU, DAVE!!

Amelie you and Thomas were wonderful to work with. I am delighted you are enjoying the photos.
Dave was absolutely phenomenal to work with! He and Nikolai felt like good friends which made shooting our wedding really easy. Dave was receptive to which areas I did and didn't want to use at our venue, captured every photo I asked for and them some. We got our photos sooner than expected and they were stunning! I could not recommend Dave more highly.
Response from the Vendor on 09/14/2022
Ashley we had a great time photographing your wedding. You and Jamie were really laid back and great to work with. I am happy you love the photos !
We used Dave as our photographer and videographer for our wedding. This was one of the best decisions we made. He was great at getting me to loosen up during our engagement photos. He and his team were timely, professional and fun to work with. He captured such great shots and the end products (videos and album) were more beautiful than we expected. We've received so many compliments on the pictures and the short video. Highly recommended!
Response from the Vendor on 10/19/2022
Sophia your wedding was gorgeous. Definitely very classy. We enjoyed documenting your wedding in both photos and video and I enjoyed working with you and Toyin !
We used Dave for our wedding this year and I cannot recommend him enough.
We purchased the Hollywood Streaming package and the photo package. First off, very reasonably priced compared to some other photographers and the level of care and consideration on his end was absolutely top notch. The pictures were incredible.
Dave went through every action item with us via a face time video and created a full itinerary for us for our wedding day and had us put together the photos we wanted along with music selections for our ceremony. It all turned out better than we could have hoped for.
Dave arrived early on the day of and we got started almost right away with the photos and he had everything setup for the stream with plenty of time to spare. His crew was courteous and professional. Dave's level of detail to the photos was apparent when we got the full photo album back. Every photo was spot on, not only the photos we asked for, but the photos that he directed and the "spur of the moment" photos that he captured really summed up the entire feel and spirit of the wedding.
These will be photos (and video) that I will be happy to look back on forever. If you are local to the area and looking for an extremely professional and well organized photographer then Dave is your man.
He was a pleasure to have at the wedding. Very nice and well put together and interacted with everyone at the wedding.
I would recommend Dave and any of his services without hesitation. You will not be disappointed!

Brian Thank you for the nice in-depth review. I enjoyed working with you to plan and execute the photography and live streaming for your wedding. It was a wonderful laid back day and I must complement you. You were on your game that day and ...
thinking of others.
Hiring Dave turned out to be one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We were extremely impressed by his level of professionalism from the very first time we made contact. In fact, we held Dave as the standard when evaluating other vendors' professionalism. He was proactive throughout, took initiative and set up meetings to make sure we were all on the same page, and created a photography timeline that satisfied my need for organization. I was stressed about many things while planning the wedding, but the photography was not one of them as I knew I could trust Dave to do a good job. He did not disappoint. On the day of the wedding, he arrived early and was even flexible enough to stay later than planned to capture photos of me in my reception dress. The photos turned out amazing and we even received more than we expected. I love looking at them and so do my family and friends. My only regret? Not hiring Dave for videography as well!
Response from the Vendor on 10/19/2022

It was great to have Dave McIntosh and Jason photograph our wedding. They were extremely professional and flexible - really important when we were planning a COVID wedding and were changing plans up to just a couple of weeks before the wedding. Our photos turned out to be gorgeous and we loved our final wedding albums.
Dave is an amazing videographer! He was able to capture so many special moments and did a wonderful job. We were so happy when we got to search the video!! We would definitely recommend Dave to everyone.
Dave McIntosh Photographics provided excellent services, and we greatly enjoyed working with him. Dave promptly answered our questions and requests, and he showed great flexibility and accommodation when the pandemic forced us to change our plans. We highly recommend him for photography services.

Kathleen and Michael it was a long and winding road but you guys made it. You were extremely easy to work with and I hope you enjoy the memories from the beautiful photos.
Dave was great to work with! From the very start he ensured we were on the same page with what I envisioned for the day of. He was really knowledgeable and accommodating for what we asked for and made sure that we got all of the photos we wanted while being mindful of our timeline and us wanting to mingle with our guests. We were especially grateful that he was able to get a group of individuals who don't normally want their photo taken (including myself and the groom) to feel comfortable and relaxed the entire day. We are so pleased with how our photos and album turned out!
Response from the Vendor on 12/20/2021
Jen thank you for trusting me with your memories. You had a beautiful wedding day and I think the photos captured the enjoyment of everyone. You were great to work with.
Dave was able to perfectly capture what turned out to be the best day of our lives. He came early and found the perfect spots so he was able to get all the photos we could have ever wanted - and more - without taking up our time so that we were able to mingle with our guests and enjoy our wedding day. The photos were returned very quickly and we are constantly getting messages from our guests at how perfectly they turned out. He was a pleasure to work with and was super responsive to our input both before and during the wedding.

Becky it was truly enjoyable to work with you and Mike on your wedding day. It was hot but you two were both troopers - not one complaint. I am very happy you are enjoying the photos and thank for you posting the review from your honeymoon !
Choosing Dave as our photographer was one of the first and easiest decisions we made about our wedding, and it was one of the best! From our first meeting through two postponements, one elopement, and finally the big day, Dave was professional, flexible, accommodating, knowledgeable, and fun. He truly understands photography, especially lighting, and will work to ensure that each photo is perfect. He was amazingly flexible, rescheduling our engagement photos due to weather, and making himself available on a day’s notice when we decided to elope Covid-style. He came with his own know-how and ideas for shots, but was also more than happy to accommodate last minute requests or ideas for shots- and every one turned out beautiful!!!! The second shooter complimented his style exactly. The reception photos are some of my favorites- so many great candids, and you didn’t even notice they were taking pictures. We would recommend Dave to anyone who wants their day captured in a clean, crisp BEAUTIFUL style. Thank you, Dave and Jason!!

Heidi I really enjoyed getting to know you and Joe and capturing your love for each other on your special days. It was amazing!
Dave was absolutely AMAZING from start to finish. My husband and I are so happy with all the photo’s he captured at our wedding. Dave is professional, concise and truly passionate about his work. Photographs are one of the most important parts of your wedding day and Dave nailed it!! We can not thank him enough. I would highly recommend Dave for your next event. He has gained a lifetime customer for our future events. Thank you again Dave.

Dawn you and Aaron were amazing to work with ! Both Nikolai and I enjoyed capturing your special day. I hope you enjoy the photos and the album.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we wanted to find someone experienced to live-stream our wedding for the many people who could not travel to our wedding, but we also wanted to go with a service that provided both photography and live streaming for our wedding. Fortunately, Dave McIntosh showed up as a top result in our online searches and his in-depth website made us know we wanted to work with him. Meeting with him initially, we told him what we had in mind for our ceremony and reception (two locations that were a 25 min drive apart, with the ceremony ending at 1 PM and reception starting at 3 PM) which was no problem for him in terms of setting up for the live stream. I told him we were doing a Catholic wedding and he responded by saying that was all he needed to know. He also provided good recommendations to help us work within our budget but provide the services we really wanted. We also went with getting engagement photos to get more photos of us together and to get to know our photographer, Jason, who posed us in a way that required minimal direction. We received the photos within a week and were able to get a large variety of photos we loved. For the wedding, Dave and his team showed up early to set up at the church and rolled with last-minute changes that happened throughout the day. The ceremony and reception were recorded and photographed beautifully and after the wedding, we got all of the live streaming footage, Zoom logs, and photos within a few days of the event! Dave's quick responsiveness and experience have made working with him absolutely wonderful. We are so grateful to him and his team (Jason and Dan) for helping extend our wedding to many who could not make it and recording our memories that we can look back upon for years to come!
Response from the Vendor on 08/17/2021
Therese THANK YOU for the detailed review. You were very detailed during our planning stage which made it possible for us to cover your wedding as you wished. I am very happy that you were happy with the results.
Dave showed up early and had already begun taking shots of the scenery and setting up shots for the wedding later. They were professional and safe during our Covid wedding. They set up some very creative photo ops that turned out stunning. The photo and video editing Dave and his team did were the icing on the cake, leading to pictures and videos that I've shared with friends and family, and will continue to do so for years to come.

Nadav it was truly my pleasure to capture your wedding. Gramercy Mansion is an amazing venue. I am happy we were able to take some beautiful photos. Thank you for choosing me.
Dave did our livestream ceremony this past weekend and it made our wedding so special. We have received rave reviews from all of our virtual guests. I think we had 100 or so people join in from all over the country (and the UK!). From the start Dave was awesome. He is a complete perfectionist in the best way. Sometimes I was hesitant to send him a late night email or weekend question because I felt bad knowing that he would always respond so quickly even when my request wasn’t urgent. He worked really well with our DJ and had to make last minute behind the scenes changes related to mics that I didn’t hear about until after the wedding. Hiring Dave was worth every penny and I’m so glad I didn’t listen to the people who recommended we just throw an iPhone in a tripod and do the livestream ourselves. My uncles review really sums up how great the live stream was: “We started with the slide show, and continued on to the end of the broadcast. We set it up to watch on our big flat-screen TV, and the technical quality was terrific for both sound and picture. Obviously, the people who made it possible knew what they were doing and used the best equipment. The opportunity you provided for us to attend virtually is very much appreciated. Lots of smiles and nods on this end.” I will add that these words from my uncle were completely unsolicited, he just sent my mom an email after the ceremony because he enjoyed watching it that much!

Olivia thank you for the review and including the feedback from your uncle ! It was truly our pleasure to LiveStream your beautiful wedding. I am glad you are happy with the result.
Dave is extremely professional and clear in communication. He set up a call to discuss the event to be best prepare for the coverage. He was able to accommodate all our request for bringing in zoom calls during the ceremony and background music. His coverage of the event was loved by all our guests across the world! I would definitely recommend him to family, friends and colleagues and would love to work with him again in the future.

Shaeq thank you for the kind review. I am very happy you were happy with the LiveStream and I would love to work with you again in the future.
My wife and I recently got married in Washington, D.C. right in the middle of the pandemic. We obviously had to downsize our wedding from 200 to about 40 people. We still wanted to be able to share our wedding with our family and friends but weren't into just setting up a laptop with the camera pointed at us. Dave had multiple cameras set up to broadcast to YouTube, and we also opted for the package where he brought a second videographer along. It worked out so well and we had friends all across the world watch. Check it out and decide for yourself! (https://youtu.be/AwdawA37iEI) Thanks Dave!

Andrew thank you for the review. It was truly a pleasure to work with you and plan the livestreaming of your beautiful ceremony and reception.
Dave was wonderful to work with from the start! He was extremely responsive to emails and helped us to figure out the best approach for live streaming our wedding. Everyone watching was amazed by the quality and sound of the video. Highly recommend Dave and would give him 10 stars if we could!!!

Allison thank you for the nice review. It was truly my pleasure to work with you to LiveStream your wedding. I am very happy you are happy with the result.
Dave is incredible! A true professional through and through. The planning was completely painless because he really knows his stuff (he was always at least two steps ahead of us). Not only that, but after shopping around, you definitely get the most for your money with his services (worth every penny!) He was somehow even better on the wedding day, and he went out of his way to make sure that he had quality shots and sound. Dave, Jason, and their team did a marvelous job with streaming our wedding ceremony, recording the ceremony, and the highlight video of everything far exceeded our expectations. I could not recommend him more highlighly! Book him, and I doubt you will regret it!
My wife and I really enjoyed working with Dave. We decided to utilize his services based on all of the awards he had received. After watching the livestream back, I was blown away by what a high quality product he produced. We got married on the beach and it was windy, but Dave did a masterful job of not letting that impact the end product at all. My wife and I are very pleased and highly recommend Dave. The recording allows for a wonderful memento that we plan on watching each and every anniversary! Thanks, Dave!

Jonathan thank you and Hannah for trusting me to Live Stream your wedding. Dan and I enjoyed it especially the ceremony on the beach. You and Hannah are very sweet. Thanks for the review!
Dave and his crew made our wedding an immersive experience for those who couldn't attend in person, and for us to relive. Highly recommend.

Ashley it was awesome for me to spend time with you and Jess on your wedding day. Can't wait for you to see the photos and video.
We hired Dave McIntosh for both our engagement photos and our wedding day. From the moment we met him, we knew he was the perfect person to capture our special memories. He has a calming personality which is exactly what you want on an otherwise hectic wedding day. The engagement photoshoot was a perfect way to us all to get to know each other and for us to become comfortable in front of the camera. We recently moved to the Baltimore area, and Dave used that opportunity to take us to some excellent locations to capture us falling in love in with the beauty of our new hometown.
Dave has an great eye for beautiful shots and his years of experience shine through in the amazing photos we received. His assistant, Jason, was awesome with the nervous Groom, and the shots he took from the "guys" perspective were really special. They both felt like members of our family by the end of the night!
The entire process from beginning to end (the contract, scouting shooting locations at the venue, planning of the shot list, and especially the "day of" photography - from the "First Look", to the ceremony. to the formal shots. and to the very last dance) was stress free and extremely professional. Our photos are outstanding! Some bring tears to my eyes every time. We can't wait to see our wedding album!
I highly recommend Dave McIntosh if you are looking for high quality photos which will capture all the special intimate moments as well as well as how much fun your guests are having celebrating you!

Alyson first of all thank you for selecting me as your wedding photographer. Jason and I truly enjoyed working with you to capture your special day.. I truly appreciate the nice review it was a pleasure to get to know you !
Both my husband and I have been over the moon with Dave's work. We are so happy with the pictures and videos and can't wait to share them with everyone. From our first meeting with Dave, we knew we wanted to work with him. We booked his services for both our engagement and wedding photos as well as for our wedding video. He made the process very easy and was always quick to respond to our messages. It was clear that he enjoys what he does and that made working with him that much easier. And his team is just as amazing to work with as he is. He was truly wonderful to work with and we hope that we can work with him in the future as well. We are elated with everything and as my husband put it, if he could give Dave and his team a gold medal, he would! We would highly recommend Dave!!!

Bahar thank you. I love my job especially when we work with couples like you. Thank you for inviting me to your wedding !
Any couple lucky enough to book Dave will have the best photography experience possible. We worked with Dave for our engagement photo shoots and our wedding, and we were impressed by his absolute professionalism and expert eye for the best possible shot. Dave was everything we were looking for in a photographer: his technical mastery of his craft is remarkable, and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. Our photographs turned out beautifully! We will treasure them, as well as the experience of working with Dave. We cannot recommend Dave McIntosh highly enough to do him justice.
I had the pleasure of working with Dave for my engagement photos & wedding day and would absolutely recommend him to everyone! Dave was very attentive, professional, forward thinking & prepared for all situations. My wedding ended at 9pm and by midnight I had an email of 19 sneak peak photos, which in my opinion is just above & beyond quality service. I am now in the process of picking photos for my custom album and I'm having the hardest time narrowing my favorites down!
Dave and his team did an outstanding job, starting with our engagement pictures. My husband and I had never had professional photos done and aren't used to the camera. Dave made us feel comfortable and directed us so we'd get good pictures. On our wedding day he and his team went above and beyond. While there are some photos I wished I had asked for, the photographers did a great job capturing all the important moments. They were kind and professional as well. Now I can't wait to see the videos that came out of our day!
My husband and I can't say enough about Dave! From our first meeting, we knew we needed him to photograph our wedding! He was so personable and makes every shot as natural as possible! We fell in love with our engagement photos, thinking it couldn't get any better than that. Well then we got our wedding photos back and WOW. Speechless. Dave captured every moment perfectly. We love looking back at these photos and reliving our wedding day. The day was perfect and Dave was perfect!!
Dave was great to work with! Even though it rained on our day he worked with us to try and get great and creative shots. He has a great eye. He is also very organized which helps take some of the stress away from your big day. We are so glad we got to work with Dave and would highly recommend him.

Nina you and Adam were great to work with. Mother nature through us a lemon but you both were extremely easy to work with and we created lemonade together. I hope you enjoy the wonderful memories you created and final photos.
Everything about working with Dave was fabulous! Communications were prompt and even though we never spoke in person once before the day of the wedding... everything went super smooth without a hitch!
The pictures came out amazing, we're really happy with them and we'll cherish them for a long, long time. They weren't the cheapest of the photographers we checked out (definitely not the most expensive either), but what we ended up paying was worth every penny in our opinion.
If you're looking for a wedding or family photographer or for something more casual - Dave McIntosh Photographics is exceptional!
Response from the Vendor on 01/15/2018
Mo, thank you for the kind words. It was wonderful to work with you. We worked together to create what I hope are memories and photos you will cherish.
David was spectacular. We met him about a year ahead of time to go over our plans and vision for the wedding photography and he was very agreeable to our plan (which was to take all the photos before the ceremony so we could enjoy our cocktail hour and reception) but he did offer his expert suggestions - such as making sure we try and get at least a few sunset shots if we wanted during the reception. David had never done a same-sex wedding so he worked closely with us on a Pinterest Board to get a feel for the style we wanted. He seemed to understand that we wanted a very relaxed and casual wedding and he was wonderful to work with. I can tell from his portfolio that he excels at all types of events as well. We appreciated how well David communicated with us prior to the wedding, even meeting us at the venue a couple weeks ahead of time to go over the placements and the lighting options for all the shots we wanted. Our wedding party was huge (36 people when the whole group was together) and he managed to very politely and tactfully organize everyone and get all the pictures we wanted in our timeframe. He was also super nice to our families and friends, something not all photographer remember to be. Our photos were ready online in less than a week so we got to look at them on our honeymoon and they're beautiful. We couldn't be more grateful for David's expertise and artistic skills. He worked alone yet somehow he managed to be everywhere at once. We fully recommend David and we thank him for providing us with such great pictures to always remember our big day.
Dave was so great to work with! He went above and beyond with all aspects of the planning process. He is quick with email responses, we received all of our photos within days of our engagement session and wedding, and they were all great quality! It was so difficult to narrow down our top picks since they were all fantastic. He made sure to make everything personal to us and focused on what we wanted. We got so many compliments from our guests on his professionalism and the awesome pictures!
Dave was phenomenal!! Through the entire process he was extremely helpful, patient, and provided excellent advice for the best types of pictures. On our wedding day, Dave and his staff moved effortlessly through the enture process not missing a single picture. Evertime we look at the photos we are still mesmerized how he captured the moments. We highly recommend his services!! Ralph and Lauren Davis

Lauren
Thank you very much for the wonderful review. You and Ralph were truly a pleasure to work with using both the engagement session and Oct 2016 wedding. Can't wait to work with you for family photos.
Dave McIntosh
I cannot say enough good things about Dave! The whole process with him was thorough and seamless. He gave ideas but also really let my husband and I decide what we wanted for the day. The day of the wedding was so easy. My husband and I both loved working with Dave and the second shooter we had, Nicolai. Both were fun and energetic, gave good directions, and were able to capture our photos beautifully. We even received our wedding photos less than a week after the event! I am so happy we went with Dave and I will use him again and again for future events and portraits. Thank you for all of your great work and all of our gorgeous photos!

You and Matt were truly a pleasure to work with. Matt was deployed so we didn't have an engagement session but we were able to plan the day and we hit the ground running. Everything flowed on the schedule and it was a wonderful day.
