Did our wedding videography. So kind and easy to work with, and of course we love his style!
We got married this past September and had HaleChannel video our wedding. I highly recommend hiring HaleChannel for your videographer! Brian was so great to work with. He is professional and personable. Our video turned out amazing. So happy we chose Brian to capture all the important moments of our special day to now have a video we will cherish forever!
We had Brian as our videographer for our wedding and he was amazing!! So wonderful to work with and the video came out just beautifully! Can't recommend enough!
Oh my gosh, what can I even say about working with Brian. He was absolutely amazing. Not only was he incredibly professional and got every shot I had hoped for, but his personality is so wonderful. He kept the process so lighthearted and fun, while also capturing some seriously beautiful images. His assistant, Wendy, who was working videography was amazing as well. She and Brian worked together like a dream and I can not wait to see the final product.
Working with Brian for our wedding was AMAZING! The pictures he took are unreal. He was also so wonderful to work with and knew exactly what my husband and I were looking for. He was right on spot with every picture and I love looking through each one. Thank you, Brian!!
Brian and Wendy did a fantastic job photographing our wedding. Brian communicated so well with us before the event and met with us to plan out all of the details and write up an itinerary and shot list so that when the day came we didn’t need to worry about anything. He and his assistant took beautiful, elegant photos and got plenty of great posed and candid, fun shots- which is what was most important to us! They both arrived early in the day to take photos of us getting ready in the hotel, take posed girls shots, first look photos, wedding party photos, and ceremony and beyond. They were working for almost 12 hours! We really appreciated having all of the photos online where we could print them out or share them with friends and family. He is also compiling a physical photo album for us as we select our favorites. From start to finish we were thrilled with Hale Channel Photography. We’ve been familiar with Hale for many years, having seen their work at several friends’ weddings, and we wouldn’t have wanted anyone else for our special day!
Brian was great. It’s true what they say about weddings. It goes by in a flash and you are busy busy. We received our photos and could not be happier. It’s after the fact when you realize why Brian had us taking formal pictures and a lot of them. You sadly won’t have time later on to get them done. We appreciate those memories and they wouldn’t be possible if he didn’t round us up and make it happen. We will be ordering a picture book through Hale Chanel. Brian your the man. And I must say Brian is very creative. My favorite photo is at night when Brian took out and umbrella and had us pose for silhouette shots behind it. Thanks!!!!
Working with Brian for our wedding in November was a great experience for us! He does beautiful, amazing work with his photos and he was so easy to work with. He made the whole process stressless and fun while ensuring he got every shot that we wanted. He was very professional the whole time and did a phenomenal job. We have been told over and over again that we chose a great photographer by several of our guests and wedding party. We could not be happier with Brian and his amazing work!
My husband and I are so lucky to have picked HaleChannel Photography for our wedding photos. Brian is absolutely amazing. He meets with you beforehand to make sure nothing is missed. He took stunning pictures that we will cherish forever. I don’t think there is a photo that I thought “I wish I had a photo of that.” Highly recommend if you want a top notch photographer who is extremely kind and fun to shoot with too!
Brian is a true professional. He had photographed my friends weddings and I knew that I wanted him to photograph our wedding. After our first meeting with Brian, my fiance was also immediately in agreement. You can sense Brian's passion about photography instantly. Leading up to the wedding Brian was incredibly responsive and easy to work with. He provided us with a full photo shot list of all the formal photos we would be taking at the wedding. The day of the wedding Brian was there early taking photos of the venue, and he was able to capture every shot that I could have wanted. We are so happy with our wedding photos. Brian really told a story with our photos, and the formals and the first look photos are exquisite. Another huge plus, every photo was professionally edited and was quality. Brian doesn't whitewash his photos and all of them are clear and crisp. Additionally, Brian was able to photograph every single person who attended the wedding reception, which is something we are so grateful for because now we have at-least one photo of every guest who attended our wedding. I highly highly highly recommend Hale Channel photography. It is also a great value; I have spoken with others who spent double what we spent and they are not happy with their photos. We are so happy that all of our memories of our special day were captured by Hale Channel photography. If you want a creative photographer who is passionate about his work and is reliable and professional then you should book Hale Channel photography now!
Brian helped us out super last minute after we fired our photographer a week before our wedding! Brian jumped right in, traveled the distance, and took amazing photos. Brian was flexible, willing to listen and shoot any ideas that were given to him. Brian worked well with our videographer, and provided us with some sample photos and a USB drive in a very nice little box, great presentation! It did not take long at all to get this box and subsequently the digital access to all of our pictures! We would recommend Brian again and again!
We were so lucky to have Brian as our wedding photographer! He is exceptionally talented and the final product was a great array of different photos that truly captured the day and the spirit of our wedding. Our photos were well edited, and he even sends black/white and sepia versions of all of them. Most importantly, Brian was so fun to work with. He is enthusiastic and puts everyone at ease, and he truly seems to love what he'd doing. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer in the area.
We are so thrilled that Brian was able to capture our special day. He is incredibly professional and attentive, and we're thrilled with his service. Definitely book him to film your wedding! You won't be disappointed!
My husband and I planned a Disney themed wedding. We wanted subtle touches of Disney without being too over the top. We also love candid photos and shots that play with the lighting in the photo. Brian was very thorough and spent over an hour going over the different types of photos, filters, effects, he is able to do. He is a true artist! He made even the most ordinary scenes come to life in his photos and we were thrilled to work with him. Brian was always prompt, answered emails quickly, and was really listened to everything we wanted in our photos for the big day. Brian and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with. They were professional but made everyone in the wedding party feel comfortable. The pictures were absolutely stunning. I can’t tell you how many compliments we receive on a daily basis on the photos he took of our wedding. Brian Hale is an incredibly talented photographer. I highly recommend him!
We were not sure about weather or not we would need a pro photographer or just use a family friend. We decided to meet with a few professionals just to see what our options were. After meeting with Brian we learned so much about all the cool things that are involved in wedding photography. Brian really loves his job and he was full of really fun, creative ideas. We knew right away that we wanted to have him do our wedding photos. We met with two other photographers just to see what else was out there but Brian was by far our favorite.
On the wedding day Brian arrived early and got extra shots of our venue and ceremony spot before guests arrived. Our friends and family all commented on how great he was. His photos are all amazing and we are so glad we decided to hire him. We recommend him highly and would trust him in a second for any important once-in-a-lifetime photography needs.
I loved the entire HaleChannel team! They did our photography, wedding video and photo booth. From start to finish they were easy to work with and we got amazing photos and a top-notch video to cherish for years to come.
Brian is an super nice guy and really loves what he does. His excitement made our day fun and we knew we were in good hands!
Thanks Brian,
Kim and Sam P.
My husband and I found HaleChannel at a bridal show and we instantly hit it off with Brian. There were a lot of photographers to choose from but Brian was our favorite and he was in our price range.
We were so glad we went with him. Our photos are stunning! We are beyond happy with everything they did for us. He's easy to work with and did a great job taking charge and helping us with ideas on the wedding day. I'm telling all my friends and family to use him for sure!
Using Hale Channel Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! We booked the unlimited hours package, and Brian was amazing! He and his assistant were, professional, creative, and very easy to work with. Our photos are all stunning and we have received endless compliments.
We honestly could not be any happier as our wedding day was captured so perfectly. I will continue to recommend HaleChannel Studio to all of my friends and family!
We looked at so many photographers and videographers for our wedding and finally came across Brian's business HaleChannel Studio. His work was absolutely stunning AND affordable! We loved that he could do both photo and video. This made our planning so much easier.
We sent him an email and he responded right away. We agreed to meet him at his studio in Chicopee and Brian was a super nice guy who knew a lot about the whole wedding process and was very helpful. After talking with him we knew he was our guy.
We hired him for photography and our wedding video. Brian was our lead photographer on the wedding day. He brought an assistant and had two really nice videographers along with him. They did a great job at capturing every moment without being obtrusive. They blended in to the crowd most of the night.
Brian put us at ease with his posing ideas and our photos came out beautiful and candid looking. Also very artsy. We LOVE them.
The video was just as impressive! We got the full length hour long video and a short 4-minute video. The videos are so nice they look like something that would be seen in a movie theatre! Brian and his team are so very talented.
If you are still looking for a photo+video company, look no further. Hale Channel is the best experience we could have hoped for and they went above and beyond for us along the way.
My husband and I were married in June of this year. When the topic of a videographer came up while planning my husband wasn't sure we needed one- we had already booked a photographer. We agreed to at least meet Brian Hale and see what we thought! Once we were in Brian's studio my husband's opinion changed instantly. Brian is clearly passionate about his work; you see it the moment you meet him. He truly loves what he does and it was clearly reflected in the end product of our video. The day of the wedding we worked with his assistants, Mike and Shannon, who were two of the most professional people I've met. I was worried that the house was a mess since I had so many women getting ready together and they assured me it was not a problem (This felt like a huge deal for me at the time!!) They captured every intimate moment of the ceremony and I cannot thank them enough for letting me relive that on a daily basis if I want! Our reception had many small details (signs, toasting glasses, favors) and they made sure to get every single one documented. Mike even took a ride hanging off the back of a golf cart to get the perfect shots of us! They somehow captured me singing during our first dance which Brian was able to put exactly to the song on the video. Both Mike and Shannon captured every moment and yet also somehow stayed in the background so you didn't even know they were there! It was amazing! Brian did the editing and when I received the short and long version everything was absolutely perfect. Mike and Shannon somehow got clips of every guest either dancing or giving an interview and I cannot explain how nice it is to see everyone at your wedding having a good time on video. The song choices were amazing, the timing of everything was just right, and thanks to Brian, Mike, and Shannon I have the most perfect video to look back on for years to come. I cannot thank HaleChannel Photography enough!
I would highly recommend Brian if you are in need of a professional photographer for your wedding. Brian took the photos for my wedding as well as my engagement photos. He made us feel at ease and took ideas we had and turned them into a reality. He does a wonderful job editing the photos and you can tell he takes time to make sure that each picture is stunning. I am so thankful that he was able to beautifully capture the most important day of my life. I think his works speaks for itself, but when you meet with him you can see that his down to earth personality makes him a pleasure to work with.
I came across one of Brian’s films while looking for a local videographer/ photographer. The film was so beautiful it made me cry (and feel so silly because of course I didn’t know the couple)- but that was exactly the feeling I was looking for. We used Hale Channel for photography, videography and gravity booth. I can’t say enough about how great this decision was. Brian’s work is beautiful; he and his staff are kind, professional and organized. He made us feel completely comfortable and worked with us to ensure he captured exactly what we were looking for in our photos. To boot, our friends and family are still talking about how much fun they had in the gravity booth. I highly recommend Hale Channel!
We couldn't have been more happier with Brian as our wedding photographer. He was professional and very personable while using his expertise to capture our true selves throughout one of the most special days of our lives. His work is exceptional and budget friendly; a combination hard to find. Hundreds of pictures taken. Each one holding a special memory shared by so many loving family and friends. And all of them given to you on flash drive to do with what you please including the option to buy special prints; such as, photo books, canvases, acrylics, collages and more! Brian was always easily reachable up until and throughout the wedding while being unobtrusive at the same time. He, and his assistant, made what seemed like a daunting task, getting all family and friends together for formal pictures in a timely fashion, easy because he was so organized. We look forward to working with Brian again and highly recommend him to photograph any special occasion!
We couldn't have asked for any more than Brian. He's extremely talented, professional, and easy to work with. His work speaks for himself, but it's the little things he does that you'll appreciate. He was very covert on the wedding day, so he wasn't intrusive on our special day. He's was frequently moving around taking photos from all angles, almost like we had a whole team of photographers working for us. He had many ideas for photo opportunities leveraging the beauty of the venue. The wedding day goes by so fast, and you'll want tangible memories of it. He captures the candid moments, and you'll be amazed when you get your results back.
Brian is an awesome photographer! We would recommend him to anyone. Brian took our photos for our wedding in June. His photos are beautiful and creative. He really knows how to capture every moment. Looking at the photos is like living the day all over again! Thanks Brian
I fell in love with Brian's work the moment my husband and I saw his website, but it was when We met Brian in person that we knew we wanted to work with him.
The photos came out beautifully, and what's more is Brian's ease to work with, professionalism, and sense of humor. We received our pictures less than one month from the wedding day! Our family will be forever blessed with Brian's ability to capture these memories.
Working with Hale is so much fun! All of his photos came out incredible. Even though our wedding was small he and his crew were able to capture it extremely well. They were very nice to all the guests and always willing to change plans whenever we needed to do so. Photos were delivered in very high resolution and he gave us "web" versions as well. Video was beautiful and brought all of my friends and family to tears. I'm so glad we decided not to skip out on the video. It was worth it a million times over.
Working with Hale Channel studio definitely made my wedding day a lot easier on me and my husband. Thanks you Brian and Jay!
Brian Hale is an amazing photographer. He is very professional, organized, creative, and down to earth. The "formal" picture taking process went smoothly and didn't take nearly as long as we would have expected because of his organization and great eye, which made more time for my husband and I to enjoy or reception. Brian even recommended a location nearby to our venue for picture taking which my husband and I didn't even know existed. Just a quick drive up the road and Brian and Jay captured some truly amazing photos of us. I highly recommend Brian any chance I get. Thanks for capturing our best memories Brian and Jay.
Brian is an absolute professional in his field. Right from our first meeting we knew that he would be great at what he does because of the passion that he shows for it. Before the Wedding Brian was in constant contact for any questions that we had, as well as asking us for important information that he needed to do his job.
On the wedding day, Brian showed up bright and early and got many shots that before the ceremony we were not even expecting. Brian worked well with the other vendors to make sure everything was smooth and coordinated, always acting Professionally and Politely. Brian was also accessible to us (and our guests) if there was a special photo that we wanted. Brian's photography skills are second to none, he took amazing pictures that really capture the atmosphere of our wedding.
After our wedding Brian followed up with some great sneak peek shots for us to look at while we were still on our honeymoon! Our full photo portfolio was not far behind that. We couldn't believe the amazing pictures he took. The ordering process from Brian's site is easy and streamline and more than fairly priced, we purchased plenty of christmas gifts and albums for our families.
Our overall experience with Brian Hale was truly great, his positive attitude, professionalism, passion for what he does is a hard combination to find. We have, and will continue to, recommend his services to all of our friends, family, and strangers. Hands Down the Best!
My husband and I were on the lookout for a creative photographer for our wedding. My husband is an amateur photographer mostly from an "artsy" view. We knew we did not want just posed pictures that everyone else seems to get. Brian Hale came recommended from another photography we had sought out but was already booked for our date. The moment we met Brian at his studio we knew by the look of his pictures on display and his up-to date viewing section that he was the "artsy" flair we were looking for!
We opted for an engagement session even though we had been engaged for a couple of years just to get comfortable with the actually act of being photographed and it was such a fun evening! Brian was more than happy to let us include our puppy and the pictures came out great.
The day of the wedding was even better, Brian's positive and fun attitude really made the day even more special and you can see it shine through the final pictures.
Brian does a great package where you get a few printed pictures of his choosing along with a thumb drive of all your pictures from the day. You can really see the creativity and time Brian puts into editing every picture.
An added bonus to Brian's technique is he tends to stay in the background and is not right in your face the entire day but the pictures seem like he was right there! That was no a quality we were looking for but having it was so nice and pictures of the reception look so natural!
I would recommend Brian for your engagement, wedding and any other event you want captured creatively and naturally. thanks Brian!

Hale is by far one of the most professional, down to earth, and get it done photographers we could have asked for. We couldn't have asked for better service or a nicer person. The quality of our photos (and I'm a hobbyist photographer myself) are incredible. Thanks HaleChannel!!!!!
Sometimes, and very rarely in life, you have a moment that is truly magical. If you are incredibly lucky, this moment can stretch into hours. That was my wedding day. Magic like this can be hindered by any number of things, and I worried before booking our photographers - about how it would feel to have someone taking so many pictures during such a sacred time. These concerns melted away the instant I arrived at the venue on the big day, and was met with Brian's smiling face. Brian and his assistant were incredibly kind, and efficient (qualities that often don't find themselves in the same person). They put everyone at ease, and charmed the guests. During the first look, and the ceremony, they were documenting each moment without us knowing they were there. Brian coached me through the cake cutting, which would have gone horribly awry without him. They were a dream. When we received the pictures, we were struck yet again. Only soulful people can capture soulful moments, and Brian captured so many that we could not believe our eyes. Oh my goodness, the photos are beautiful. The editing is superb and artistic. We could not be more happy. Magical moments come rarely in this life. I feel so fortunate that my husband and I met Brian, a wonderful and artistic professional to make our magical hours last for the rest of our lives.
Brian and Jay were excellent to work with. Our engagement and wedding photos came out great and was exactly what we wanted. Everyone at the wedding commented on how professional they were. They made my husband and I feel like celebrities on one of the most important days of our lives! You will not be disappointed with Brian. He is a must have for your special event.
We had a really great experience working with Brian and his assistant for our wedding photography and engagement photos. He was professional, friendly, and absolutely a very talented photographer.
I didn't know what to expect and I admit that I was a bit nervous when thinking about posing for so many photos. Brian put me at ease when we met at his studio to talk about everything. He really knows a lot about the whole wedding process and you can tell he really loves what he does. He gave us some great ideas and answered all our questions in a way that made us feel really comfortable.
We decided to have an engagement session with him. The shoot was fun and he guided us along the whole time. It was easy and we can't believe how the photos came out. They look so natural and candid. He had "sneak peeks" the next day and he was super fast getting all the rest of our wedding photos back to us (within a week or two).
I highly recommend him!
It was a pleasure to work with Brian from the moment we met him. He is such a warm person and so easy to work with. Brian took the time to really get to know us as a couple and to understand the style of photography that we like. He went through our wedding day timeline to ensure every moment was captured. We knew nothing about comming up with creative poses for pictures, but Brian did a great job of guiding us and our wedding party. He got a ton of great candid shots throughout the night. Even the posed ones looked natural. He's truely talented and an expert in the photojournalistic style. Every photo he took was phenomenal and I have to say there was not a single shot we didn't love.
Overall, we absolutely love our photos and we loved working with Brian. He's gifted, creative and his love of photography shows through in every picture.
Brian is the best! If I could give him even more than 5 stars then I would. Finding a really amazing videographer was important to me. After meeting with many other videographers we knew it was an easy decision to choose Brian as our videographer. I know I couldn't have found better that Brian. He is friendly & fun, but he's also professional, talented and passionate about his work. He is the perfect combination! Wedding planning can be stressful, but Brian was easy to work with and everything flowed seamlessly. If you are looking for the perfect videographer ...Brian is the right choice! His sample videos blew us away when we first met with him and our wedding video surpassed all of them!
My wedding was on 10/12/14 and was an absolutely gorgeous day. Brian from HaleChannel Photography was our photographer and he went above and beyond my requests for personal touches on certain photos I wanted to capture. I still can't get over how amazing the photos turned out and each picture perfectly captured the emotion of the day! You will absolutely love your experience with Brian!
Brian and his group, along with the videographer did an AMAZING JOB with our wedding! In our first meeting with Brian he took his time to explain the entire process in much detail. He was able to provide feeback on his past experiences to make our wedding photos the best that they could be. When our wedding day came, Brian and his team took initiative and were really excited about getting all the best shots whether they were inside the complex or outside. The communication between us and his team made everything a lot smoother during the wedding day. Our families also enjoyed their company. To add, Brian also suggested the photo booth which was a HUGE HIT at our reception! Brian is very knowledgeable, and defitnitely enjoys his work. The wedding photos and video were worth every penny! Thank you Brian, along with your team!!
Brian was fantastic! He was very accessible, flexible, and supportive during the entire wedding planning process. His photos came out beautifully and we are still getting compliments on the candids and formals he took:)
Brian is simply the best! He was only slightly less excited than we were at our own wedding! It rained, and instead of complaining or worrying about his equipment, he was happily thinking of all the possibilities that the rain would actually create. Needless to say, the shots were amazing. Do yourself a favor and use Brian and his team!
So my wife and I hired Brian to photograph our wedding. Best wedding decision ever! From the moment we met with him we felt as comfortable as sitting with a long time friend. Whatever questions we didn't ask, he was right there explaining things about the whole process that we hadn't even thought of. The day of the wedding went off without a hitch and between him and his assistant, we had every single great shot that could've wanted and hundreds more that he came up with. He's very inventive with his shot selections and one of the things that I loved best was his shooting style, which I can only describe as photo-journalistic. He was never in our face snapping pics and didn't once drag us away from the reception fun to get more pics. With all that said, we had a TON of awesome pictures and I almost never even saw him. That to me is the mark of a really great photographer. He's fun and professional at the same time and our wedding wouldn't have been the same or as memorable without him. Hire this man soon for your wedding and you will not be disappointed. Thanks again Brian, you were the best!!!
Brian Hale is an amazing photographer! He did our engagement and wedding photos and I could not be happier! Everyone has remarked about how beautiful they are! Brian is a very creative photographer who also aims to achieve anything requested of him. He captured the spirit of our wedding perfectly. I met with many photographers before deciding on Brian. His work is not only top-notch but an excellent value too.
My husband & I were referred to Brian by two different couples. They both ranted & raved about him so we knew that we needed to have him as our wedding photographer.
Throughout our meetings with him we were very comfortable. He was extremely friendly & listened to all of our ideas. We had seen some of his portfolio beforehand but when he talked about it, his passion for the craft came through even more & we were sold.
We were married in the beginning of June at the Salem Cross Inn. He met me, along with my mom & bridesmaids, at the salon that I worked at where us girls were getting ready. Then he followed us to the venue a few hours before the ceremony. Throughout all of the craziness that followed, Brian would step out & pop in. He spent some time with us & the guys while he explored some of the grounds.
Formals went very smoothly. He covered all of the shots that we had discussed beforehand plus more. The second time we went out, it was just my husband & I. Let me say that this was his first wedding shoot at Salem Cross. Anyone who has ever been there knows how big it is. Well we covered a lot of area! Brian was excited to find just the right scene for each shot. We wanted him to roam wherever & it was worth it. We had a lot of fun & we could tell that he did too!
He was able to catch different lighting throughout the day including the sunset's changing sky & some shots under the sky. Our wedding party also felt very natural with him. He also collaborated well with the venue directors, videographer, DJ, & florist.
As the rest of the events continued, we saw Brian in the distance. Never once did he "get in the way" or disrupt any moment. He was quite the trooper & stayed until the very end.
Being able to see the sneak peaks was like being able to continue our wedding bliss. We were blown away immediately even with those few pictures.
Then when the rest came in the mail, we were nothing short of amazed! Starting with the presentation in the box! Brian had captured every shot! Even in places where we didn't know that he was there! Everything that we discussed in our meeting was covered & way more! Every idea was re-created! His signature shots where there with the sky, our rings, flowers, etc. He covered classic, creative, artsy, modern, natural, you name it. Everything flowed seamlessly! We could not choose just one picture as our wedding picture. Every single one was that good! Our families were beside themselves & still talk about them! We will never get sick of looking at them!
Wedding planning is not easy. Trust me, I know! Every decision you make is stressful & you get to that point where you get sick of making decisions. One of the best decisions we made was choosing Brian as our wedding photographer. He was more than fair. We knew after seeing his portfolio that what he had to offer in his packages was worth way more compared to some of the top competitors in the area. After everything was said and done, this was confirmed ten-fold. We have been trying to refer Brian by mentioning Hale Channel to everyone we know who is looking for a photographer whether it is for a wedding or not. We know that, along with our families, we will be choosing him in the future!
So do yourself a favor, stop stressing out. Declare this decision as a no-brainer. Choose Brian & cross off "wedding photographer" from your list. Then continue your wedding planning & remember to have fun with it!
Brian was extremely attentive and easygoing -willing to try whatever we asked! Always smiling, he seemed to enjoy our wedding day as much as we did! His photographs came out beautiful, we are so thankful to have had our memories captured so perfectly!
THANKS BRIAN!
Our wedding was 9/29/12. My husband and I wanted our wedding to be carefree and fun as we already have a house and child together so our lives as a family have truly started years ago. That being said, I really didn't want my whole day to revolve around what picture is to be taken next. There is something quite magical about in-the-moment photos. Brian not only met my expectations, but went above and beyond. We did want some traditional photos just didn't want to spend our night stopping and posing over and over. The photo quality is nothing but the best. If you have been to any wedding shows you are well aware that photographers can cost an arm and a leg-- and then some. Brian has an excellent price point and considering the quality of his work, and the fact that he has no time limit-- top that off with all of your photos given to you on a flash drive-- hiring him as your photographer would be the best option for any bride. Brian is a hard working, professional and reliable photographer. He is nothing but a pleasure to work with. He responds almost immediately towards questions/appointments etc. As a nurse who works in long term care, I see my residents- a vast majority who hang their 50+ year wedding photos with great pleasure and pride. It was important to me that we find a photographer who would capture the love my husband and I share to pass to our children and childrens children. Brian exceeded my expectations and I cannot thank him enough. I highly recommend choosing Brian Hale as your wedding photographer.
-Kelly & Eric
Cannot stress enough how wonderful Brian was!!! The shots he got of our wedding were truly breathtaking. Can't believe the amount of work and time he put in to make sure we had the most amazing photos to remember for years. I hope you read this Brian because you deserve every praise there is! Thank you so much again for capturing the best day of our lives in the most beautiful way possible.
If I could give Brian 20 stars I would. When we first started looking for a photographer, we knew it would be a tough balance between sticking to our limited budget and still getting a high quality, talented photographer. You'll look at these photos for the rest of your life, after all. We were thrilled when we found Brian - his work was exceptional and his prices were reasonable. We felt even more confident when we met him and discovered how friendly and easygoing he is. He took all of our suggestions into consideration and was very organized the day of the wedding. He kept us and our rowdy wedding party relaxed and having fun in the midst of a hot, long day, and somehow he managed to keep his easygoing demeanor for the entirety of the day: from 10:30 am, when he first arrived, to 11:00 pm, when he finally left. We had a number of guests comment on how unobtrusive he was, and what a generally nice and fun guy he was. We had sneak peek photos available to look at the very next day and were thrilled with the final product; can't wait to see the rest! I truly can't say enough positive things about Brian and hope to work with him again in the future.
Nick and I were referred to Brian from our close friend of ours, Brian had worked on their wedding the previous year and did amazing work. We met with him and instantly felt that we were all a perfect fit. He was amazing, his work is flawless and you don't even know he's there. Stayed right up to the end of the night as well. His pictures are absolutely stunning. I hope to work with Brian again in the near future!!
I loved working with Brian Hale! He was very professional as well as open and responsive to our ideas. We enjoyed working with him. His photographs were a great quality and he captured the special little moments that we will cherish for years to come. I would recommend him to anyone I know!
Thank you so much for helping to make our special day even more perfect. We are so happy with the way the pictures came out and have gotten so many complements. We will definitely think of you in the future.
Thanks again! Love,
Teresa + Dylan
