Dennis was absolutely WONDERFUL to work with! From our first conversation, we felt so comfortable with him and he understood exactly what we were looking for in a wedding photographer - someone who could capture our goofy selves. Come the day of our wedding, he did not disappoint. He beautifully captured the love and laughter of our big day and delivered such amazing photos for us!

Working with Dennis was a true joy. From making us feel comfortable at our initial engagement shoot, to keeping up with our energetic families, Dennis shows professionalism and we really just enjoyed his company.
Our wedding day schedule had a few extra components, and Dennis was with us every step of the way. We especially appreciated how he helped us feel present all day and allowed us to enjoy every moment!
Thank you Dennis!

Dennis was our photographer for our October 2023 wedding down the Jersey Shore!
We truly couldn't have chosen a more talented photographer to capture our wedding at ICONA Diamond Beach. He makes you feel at ease in front of the camera and truly lets your natural vibe shine through.
His team is professional, friendly, and flexible. We had to change our timeline on the day of due to unforeseen transportation delays. Dennis and I quickly went into Plan B mode in order to stay on schedule for the day, and it all worked out flawlessly.
Thank you, Dennis for capturing our wedding day and making us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process!

Of all of the decisions we had to make for our wedding, the best one we made was to hire Dennis!
From our initial call, Dennis was so kind and seemed genuinely interested in getting to know us. He is super responsive and answered all of our questions.
Dennis came down to Washington DC for our sunrise engagement shoot - we really appreciated that he went so far out of his way and delivered some incredible memories for us to cherish.
On our wedding day, Dennis was amazing at keeping the day moving along according to schedule. During our portraits, Dennis made Ryan and I feel like we were alone and able to enjoy each other's presence, and we really appreciated that time together. We totally love our photos and would recommend Dennis in a heartbeat!

We worked with Dennis for our wedding in November of 2022 over a year ago, but wanted to take another opportunity to rave about his exceptional work. Since receiving our album and sharing it with family and friends, we have heard nothing but the best feedback, from the quality of Dennis' work to the sheer volume of photos that were captured on our big day. I can honestly say that choosing to work with Dennis as our wedding photographer was the best decision we made in regards to our wedding. We look back on our photos daily, and they so perfectly capture the joy and love felt by all. We have Dennis to thank for that!

We used Dennis for our wedding photographer and I am so happy that we did! It was a rainy day on our wedding and he was able to find beautiful spots indoors to give us pictures we will cherish forever. His assistant was excellent as well - they both were relaxed, easy going, and very talented. I would highly recommend using DSC Weddings for anyone’s big day!

Dennis is incredible. He has top tier skills and we could not be more happy with our wedding photos. It poured on my wedding day and he was able to pivot and give us beautiful family portraits. He was extremely helpful in the planning process and listened to exactly what we wanted. His partner Marquis was also extremely nice and talented. We have so many amazing photos to look back on for the rest of our lives now. Hire DSC Weddings!

We also loved his assistant. We loved our engagement photos and we're very excited for our wedding photos. If you want beautifully light and airy photos we highly recommend DSC Weddings!

Ryan and I worked with Dennis for our 10/22/22 wedding and we could not have been happier with him. We got a great vibe from him from the first time we spoke to him and love his light, airy style. His prices are very reasonable and included an engagement session. He drove all the way to the jersey shore for our engagement photos which were also amazing. Communication was easy with him throughout the planning process and eased a lot of my planning stresses. He is fairly involved with helping with a wedding day timeline which was unexpected but super helpful. The wedding day went perfect much thanks to him and his 2nd photographer who was also great. He makes you feel at ease in front of the camera and gives you just enough direction to get some great, natural photos. We both feel like we are not very photogenic people and are amazed with how many great photos we received with a great mix of candid and more traditional posed photos. Once again, he was just the best and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great wedding photographer.

First of all, get ready to have the most fun because Dennis just understands how to work with couples. There is not enough time or space to go on and on about how awesome it was to work with DSC Weddings. As someone who was skeptical about overly traditional/posed photos. I'm THRILLED that we found DSC Weddings. Our engagement shoot was magical and the wedding was even more beautiful. Dennis is the real deal and so incredibly creative and kind. I'd recommend Dennis to literally anyone and everyone looking for a wedding photographer. I'm so glad we invested in DSC Weddings. Priced so fairly and I'm so glad I decided to go with DSC for my big day. Thanks again for the images that will literally last a lifetime!

We hired Dennis/DSC Weddings for our engagement shoot and wedding day and he was phenomenal! He helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera throughout the process and brought a calm, professional approach. We could not have been happier with how our wedding album turned out and are truly overwhelmed with how many great photos we have from our special day. He captured so much emotion and personality from both ourselves and our guests. It will be so hard to choose our favorites for framing and printing when every photo seems to capture a special moment.

We booked Dennis for our wedding next August. We recently got our engagement photos back and we are absolutely in love with them. He has been so fun to work with, made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and has been super prompt with his responses. We can’t wait to work with him on our actual day! Highly recommend!

We spoke to Dennis once and hired him right away. It was clear he was easy going, relaxed and knowledgeable about all things photography and wedding. This was seriously the best decision we could have made!! Dennis took incredible photos of us, and neither myself not my husband consider ourselves photogenic people. Dennis was so natural and didn’t make us feel strange or posed throughout the night. Instead he captured really candid moments of us looking natural and happy. I highly recommend hiring him!

Next to choosing each other, choosing Dennis was the best decision we made. We spoke to only two photographers, and the other was out of politeness. We could tell that Dennis was absolutely passionate about photography, and he he seemed so laid back on the phone. We got married two days ago and are still raving about our experience!!! He made everything seem so chill and comfortable, but also made sure to get *all* the important shots. We were pretty sure he even controlled the clouds for the best lighting 😊.

DSC Weddings was the only wedding photographer we considered for our 11/14/21 wedding because we knew it was a fit from the very first info-gathering call we had with owner Dennis. I’d already scrolled through his IG and portfolio, so I knew I liked his style, his prices were extremely competitive, and I knew his easy-going personality would be a godsend during the stress of planning a COVID era wedding. When we postponed our engagement shoot three times due to COVID, he was understanding and flexible. When we postponed the wedding, same thing.
On the day of our wedding, Dennis and second shooter Anna knocked it out of the park. They were punctual and professional and multiple guests commented on how inobtrusive they were. I'm not sure how they managed to get some of the shots they got because I feel like I barely saw them! I received a sneak peek within 4 weeks and the full gallery in 6. I don’t know how I’m going to choose which ones to put in an album and display because they’re all GORGEOUS.

If you are looking for a genuinely talented photographer .. look no further and hire Dennis! Dennis is not only the quickest person ever to respond to emails, his photos are truly gorgeous! He is so kind and passionate, and it really shows in the photos. He captures a mix of pictures - candid, posed, serious, happy, but most of all so much love. We are beyond thrilled with our engagement pictures and cannot wait for our wedding!

We are IN LOVE with our pictures, each one is stunning, the lighting, angles, and everything is perfect. He is also a great communicator, he would always respond in a timely manner to any emails/questions we had. His attention to detail shows through in his work. 10/10!

Finding the right photographer was such an important part of our planning process and I couldn't have imagined someone better than Dennis. From the beginning of our discussions, all the way through delivering our final gallery, Dennis was an absolute dream to work with! He was always so quick to respond to any questions we had and super flexible.
On our wedding day, he made us feel so comfortable and really accommodated what we wanted or didn't want to do.
We just received our photos and I truly cannot believe how beautiful his work is. These will always be our favorite memories and we're so happy Dennis was able to capture them!

He was so sweet and nonjudgmental of my awkwardness while being so professional from our first phone call to our last conversation.

Dennis is an absolute dream to work with. He’s an amazing photographer and also just a great genuine person. My husband and I couldn’t be any happier with our wedding photos...I seriously haven’t stopped looking at the gallery since he delivered it to us!! Dennis captured so many beautiful moments between us and our families. He let the moments happen, but also provided just the right amount of guidance when necessary. If you’re looking for a professional (and magical) wedding photographer— look no further. Dennis is your guy!

Dennis shot the video for my wedding and did an amazing job. The end result was more than we could have ever asked for. He was a complete professional, listened to all our asks and wants, and made sure to stay in the background so we could enjoy our day but still get amazing shots.
He was kind enough to even pull stills for us that turned out to be some of our favorite photos - better than some of the ones our photographers took!
I would highly recommend using his services as he doesn’t disappoint.

I cannot say enough good things about Dennis and DSC Weddings. I am someone who hates having my picture taken, but Dennis made us feel so comfortable and at ease that he was able to capture the love between my husband and I on our wedding day. Dennis is a true artist and brings an editorial eye to weddings, no cheesy posed pictures that will leave us cringing in five years. He also did not miss a single detail, and captured every small touch that meant so much to use. We are looking forward to having him do family pictures for us when it gets warmer next spring.

I’ll never forget my wedding day but if I do, I’ll always have DSC’s amazing photos to bring me back. Throughout the process Dennis made it easy to plan, execute, and deliver what I consider the most important part of the wedding, the photos! My wife and I cannot stop smiling seeing how great we look and how many “WOW” moments Dennis was able to naturally capture. He was very flexible on hearing what we wanted and he blended into the day seamlessly. Highly recommended!
