Echard Wheeler Photography

We honestly can't say enough good things or recommend Echard Wheeler highly enough! Given that my now husband is also a professional photographer, when we got engaged and started to plan our wedding, I can tell you that choosing our photographer was something that was definitely NOT taken lightly! We both knew right away that it had to be Echard, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. From the engagement photos he took to the wedding photos captured on the day of, he absolutely exceeded our expectations and we are forever grateful to be able to re-live those moments & memories through all of these gorgeous images. You can really feel the emotions in the photos he takes, and we love his ability to capture so many of those special and real candid moments as well. Not only is Echard undeniably talented, but he is also incredibly kind, easy-going, and professional- he made us feel so comfortable every step of the way, and he and his wife Leesa (who we were lucky enough to have with us as his amazing second shooter at our wedding!) are truly two of the nicest people you'll ever meet! On our wedding day, Echard and Leesa were there to document every aspect of our big day, from getting ready to the ceremony & reception, and everything in between- they made us feel totally at ease and relaxed, and made the entire process even more fun throughout the entire day, from start to finish! The ability that Echard has to be able to blend in to the background during everything going on (we'd sometimes forget he was even there, that's how good he is) while capturing every single special moment is so impressive and something we really appreciated and love about his style as well! We feel so thankful to have had Echard as our wedding photographer, and we are truly blown away by all of the beautiful images taken, as well as the volume and amount of photos captured- he really goes above and beyond and his work speaks for itself! We are beyond grateful and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Endless thanks to both Echard & Leesa for everything!

Echard is absolutely wonderful. First of all, his experience and reputation in the business is phenomenal. Just look through his website/blog and you’ll find every wedding is stellar and you’ll find every kind of celebration you could dream of and many you can relate to — that’s why I felt comfortable choosing Echard to document our day. My husband and I aren’t that comfortable being photographed but from the start of our engagement session we were totally fine — Echard has a calm demeanor and is very laid back. HOWEVER he is also a true pro and will be able to wrangle your people for portraits on your wedding day; he finds the details lighting etc etc etc that we’d never think of. Somehow he was in the middle of the action all during our wedding day but also blended seamlessly into the landscape. Echard is so kind so talented. Experience unmatched. Hire him you won’t regret it! I didn’t even want to put our faces and wedding photos on wedding wire so I chose just a few to include that show his creative eye. All the staples and moments posed and candid-Echard finds a way to capture the feeling of the day and get it all. Here is just a couple from our day. Thank you Echard!!!!!!

Absolutely incredible. We are so thrilled with the photos from our wedding. Echard absolutely nailed it. All of our guests have complimented the photos as well. Echard does such an amazing job capturing the various elements of the day- the details, the couple and group photos, and the candid shots. As a couple who aren’t typically comfortable with the more staged photos, we are so happy with the ones from our wedding. It’s a testament to Echard’s ability to make you feel relaxed. We could not be happier with our photos and would without a doubt hire Echard again.

My husband and I chose Echard for our photographer after he came highly recommended to me by another vendor. I looked through his photos and really liked his portraits, I thought they were very natural which is what I was hoping for. We got married on September 5th (mid-pandemic), and were a little concerned that we might not be able to pull off the day with all our vendors and all the added security measures. Luckily, we had no issues at all. Everyone showed up and worked fabulously together. Echard was extremely professional, and you would never know from our photos that people were in masks all around us! It felt like a very "normal" wedding, and our photos turned out incredible. We still can't decide on our favorites to make an album as we love ALL of our pictures! We highly recommend Echard and are so happy that we chose him to capture our day - he is certainly a 5 star vendor! Truly couldn't be happier.
