About this vendor
Wedding & Family Photographers based in Birmingham, AL.
Derek & Jennifer Crosby married in 2001 and founded Greater Image Photography as they found their passion while photographing their son, Elijah. Greater Image is founded on the premise of finding your identity in Christ. Too often in this world we base our image off of what we see in the mirror and what we do as a profession and not as who we are in Him. Through the friendships made from behind the lens we hope to not only capture the image in front of us, but display the reality of your image in Him. If we can do that, then our purpose will have been fulfilled.
We love capturing your life moments as they happen; whether in the comfort of your own home as you welcome a little one into the world or miles away as you say "I Do".

Jennifer showed up with a replacement for Derek. (An amateur replacement with no imagination). Everyone knows that Derek is THE photographer. Anyone who hires Greater Image assumes they are hiring him. We later found out that Derek was at another wedding. My daughter absolutely hates her photos.

thing you want/need for your big day! They even helped with things they didn’t have to like helping open the food containers for the reception and putting my socks on 😅 They also did my stepsisters wedding as well as my cousins newborn pictures. Look no further because these are the people you need! 💓

fun attitudes with us all day. When we ran behind, as most weddings do, they never made me feel rushed. Best decision I made in the bazillion of decisions I second guessed! Our rainy day pictures came out amazing! I am so happy to have found them and will certainly call Jennifer in the future for our family photography needs. Bonus: they were beyond reasonable in their fees and flexible with payment arrangements. I'd give them 10 stars if I could!
They are the best! Highly recommend. Super professional, kind, and talented.
