These guys killed it! They directed us perfectly, were so professional but also very easy and fun to work with. They kept up with the many changes that kept happening and were truly a joy to have. Can't wait to see our pictures!
My husband and I LOVE our engagement and wedding photos and video. DB is a great person and a great photographer/videographer, he is just a very difficult person to get a hold of. The ONLY reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because communicating with DB has been very frustrating due to lack of responsiveness and having to reach out multiple times regarding the same question or inquiry. It has been over 6 months since our wedding and we still have not received everything included in our package & I’m tired of asking. He would greatly benefit from an assistant who handles all of his admin and communications so he can focus on what he does well and enjoys.
WE LOVED having Derrick photograph our son’s wedding. When I first spoke with Derrick over the phone, I explained what we needed and he was immediately onboard to help out. The engagement was beautiful! And on the wedding day, Derrick selected unique angles and really captured the spirit of the day. He listened to our requests and delivered exactly as promised. We were thrilled to have him as part of our team and family. His spirit is so warm and his smile is absolutely infectious! You could pay more for a photographer but you won’t get Derrick and that would be a shame because he’s the BEST!! Thank you, Derrick for doing an amazing job!!
Any questions?
Derrick was absolutely phenomenal with our wedding. We booked with him over a year in advance and he made the process extremely smooth. His photos speak for themselves on his talent. He was on time and communicated well. We had a venue with EXTREMELY tricky lightning and he made sure to bring equipment that could work with it. We hired Derrick for photography and videography. He offers lots of additional items you can add to his packages and has flexible services as well. I couldn't have picked a more personable, fun, and talented person to shoot our wedding!
DB Photography did a great job for our wedding. I was very picky on making sure I got an amazing photographer and in the end I’m glad it was Derrick. During coordination, he was very responsive. We had zoom meetings to discuss what shots I wanted to make sure he did. On the wedding day, he was super fun. He went above and beyond. I really enjoyed talking to him as we share photography interests. He and his second shooter were really nice and even joined in our dancing as well. I would definitely recommend Derrick. He was really awesome and cool!
DB photography is the absolute best! They did a superb job of capturing our wedding. I highly recommend them for all your photography and videography needs!
I couldn't recommend DB Photography enough. The pictures could not have come out better. They really encapsulated vibe of our special day. They went above and beyond. When you're planning a wedding, you're worried about your vendors delivering. Derrick delivered on every single thing promised, within the time frame he promised. Working with DB Photography was like working with an old friend that you know wouldn't let you down. Strong recommend.
they know what looks good, and are truly artists. I wouldn't have wanted anyone else capturing my big day.
