Kevin and Matt from Markland Photography were an absolute dream team for our wedding day! From the very first call, Kevin was professional, dedicated, and incredibly easy to work with, making the planning process feel like a breeze. On the big day, he arrived with a calm, collected energy that put everyone at ease, even with 11 women buzzing around. His assistant Matt was equally wonderful—super relaxed, professional, and added such a great vibe to the day. Both Kevin and Matt went above and beyond, capturing every moment beautifully. We couldn’t be happier with our photos, and we highly recommend Markland Photography to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and personable team. Thank you, Kevin and Matt, for preserving our special day so perfectly!
Kevin came recommended from a family friend who had used him for their wedding and I really can’t recommend him enough! He had a great personality and was so easy to work with. We just received our final gallery and we are just so happy with the end results! Him and his team were simply the best!
Kevin is wonderful - so much so that our guests still to this day praise his professionalism and friendliness (and we tied the knot back in September 2023!) He kept everything running smoothly and organic when it came time to shooting the big day. He communicated with us all throughout from our initial call through the planning stages and beyond, and is very flexible with budget and timeline. His photography most of all is out of this world!!
Kevin was without a doubt the best experience with a photographer to date! Kevin is super personable and very talented at his craft. He made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the experience. We can't say enough about how professional Kevin is and the quality of work that he provides. We are blown away with our wedding photographs, they are absolutely stunning! Kevin was able to capture some remarkable and captivating photographs that we will treasure forever. We simply cannot recommend him enough.
My husband and I planned our 'surprise' wedding within a six-week window without anyone except our immediate families knowing. Trying to plan a wedding within that timeframe was a real challenge! We were scrambling to find a photographer and were recommended Kevin through my sister-in-law. From the first interaction with Kevin, he made us feel comfortable and confident that he could handle the day. Kevin was able to capture these moments of happiness and enjoyment within our guests that I never would have thought possible. Looking through our photos at all the smiles, laughs, & tears brings us right back to that special moment. Outside of being truly talented at his craft, Kevin treated all of our guests with such respect & pleasantries; that after the wedding so many people kept telling us how great he was.
If you're looking for a photographer who can capture those secret moments you think no one notices; Kevin is your guy. He's experienced, professional, and truly listens to what it is you're looking for. 100% would recommend to anyone I know looking for a photographer!
We first met Kevin at our friend's wedding, where my (now) wife was a bridesmaid in. We loved his outgoing personality and professionalism, and knew we wanted to use him for our wedding! He kept us relaxed and on schedule during our wedding day, and made the whole photo process feel really easy. We absolutely love our photos, so does our family. Our guests were raving about how nice our photographer was! We would definitely recommend Kevin and his team again and again!!
Kevin has been the photographer for 5 of our friends weddings. After seeing their photos, we knew we needed to have him for ours! He does amazing, creative shots and is such a pleasure to work with. He made sure every special photo I was looking for happened throughout the day/night.
My wife and I are both so happy with the final product from our wedding! Kevin and his team were recommended by our close friends who had him for their wedding a few years back. We reached out and got a quick response and then had a video chat shortly after to go over details. We could see his high level of professionalism and passion right off the bat. He made us feel at ease throughout the planning process. Our wedding was in NYC and his team met us at the hotel on time and we shot in several locations throughout the city before the venue. We even all squeezed in the back of a cab to get some great candid shots cutting through the city which became some of our favorite shots from the day! His team was very organized and made sure we got all the shots we needed. Our family and friends all enjoyed working with them. We received the final photos shortly after in a unique package, a flash drive with a photo of us in a decorative box with another photo. Overall we are thrilled that we chose this team for our special day and we would highly recommend!
There were many things I was unsure about when it came to wedding planning especially being a covid bride... but the one thing my husband and I WERE sure about was highering Kevin! I knew after looking at some of his work and speaking with him he was the photographer we needed for our wedding. He was so paitent and kind from the start and everytime we spoke it was like speaking to one of my friends. My husband and I were suppoused to originally be married in Oct 2020 but then covid hit and we had to postpone.... Kevin was so accommodating with everything even with changing the plan 3 times....(one of them including eloping to montana) and Kevin was totally down to come do photos for us on all 3 occasions! We settled for a small park wedding that year and had a big wedding this past Oct 2021 to which Kevin and his other photographer were present at both weddings! They took so many phenomenal shots and memories as well as capturing every moment I asked for. I recommend them for anyone needing a photographer and plan to use them again myself for our next big event! Thank you Kevin (and John) for making our big day so special.
Kevin photographed both my sisters wedding and mine and both times we were super impressed! Kevin makes you feel super comfortable when photographing you, which definitely helped as my husband and I are a bit awkward in front of a camera. Highly highly suggest!!
My fiancé and I knew within the first 5 minutes of meeting Kevin he was the one we wanted. After our wedding and then seeing our pictures we were blown away! Kevin did an unbelievable job. He was so wonderful to work with and made sure to get every shot I requested. His eye for precious moments you don’t expect is impeccable. I loved our pictures beyond words. He is very professional and you can tell has a real passion. I would highly recommend him to anyone!
I can not explain how much we loved Kevin and his associate. They were both so friendly and sincere in wanting to get the best shots for our wedding. Even all of our guests raved about them, saying they were everywhere getting tons of shots. I love his style and edgy demeanor. My husbands quote is “Kevin was very attentive to our needs and wants in photos as well as coming up with ideas we wouldn’t think of “. If we could go back we would pick a different DJ and PhotoBooth person but we absolutely would choose Markland photography time and time again.
Kevin is absolutely amazing! He made my husband and I feel so comfortable and cared for on our wedding day. He pays attention to detail and listens like he’s been your friend for years. You can tell how much passion he has for his job and the couples he works with. Kevin knows exactly how to capture perfect moments that we will cherish forever. All of our photos are incredible and I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. I truly recommend to look no further, Kevin is the best there is!
I would hire Markland Photography a thousand times over!!! Kevin and his team made our wedding day SO easy and stress free, and our photos turned out absolutely incredible! He took the time to get to know us and shared our vision of our big day. Every step of the way, Kevin has been incredibly professional, enthusiastic, and genuinely easy to work with, from our first meeting, to the wedding, to receiving our photos. We are very happy that Kevin and his team was our wedding photographer, and cannot recommend them enough!
My husband and I just received our photos back from Kevin and we are blown away!! We are a couple thst had to postpone our June 2020 wedding and Kevin made this easy and stress free. Kevin is very laid back and is so easy to work with. My husband and I had our first meeting with him over drinks and we knew that he was the perfect fit for our wedding! I highly recommend Kevin and his team for his professionalism and easy going personality! We can’t stop looking at our pictures!!!
Markland Photography was referred to me by a friend to use for my engagement & wedding pictures, and I am so grateful for that! Even without the connection I would hire him again and again if given the chance! Kevin is the perfect balance of a professional and friendly wedding vendor without the stuffiness that sometimes comes with the field. Kevin genuine loves what he does and you can tell. We loved seeing how excited he got when a photo looked awesome, and he ran up to show us the camera. My husband and I felt like he was just one of our friends at the wedding, and all our guests felt the same way. We were able to joke around, take silly shots, and have fun all through the stress of rushing through photos of our huge bridal party. We had a second photographer and video team hired through Markland Photo as well that we didn't meet beforehand, but they were just as great! We haven't gotten back our wedding photos yet, but based on what we got a sneak peak of I know we won't be disappointed. Markland Photography was one of the best vendors we've worked with!!
Kevin is the true definition of a professional wedding photographer with exceptional skills and outgoing personality. He provided direction and guidance to always get the perfect shot and was always scouting the perfect location to get creative and unique photos. Kevin made us feel so comfortable throughout the day.
He has clear passion for his craft and it shows while he’s working with his clients and after when he produces his photos.
Kevin is hands down the best photographer. He is amazing at what he does. He was able to capture intimate, happy, and magical moments during our special day. He has a great eye and is very organized. He is friendly, understanding, and so easy to work him. The finish product exceeded my expectations.
Kevin and I met at Roast, a coffee shop in Patchogue, a couple of months before COVID while he was giving a consultation to another couple. After my wife and I met with him and saw some of his previous work, we were instantly sold. Even throughout the COVID craziness of 2020 and the various changes that we had to make to our wedding, Kevin was understanding and very professional. When our wedding days finally arrived, Kevin was there on time and ready to go. He is so easy to work with and you can see the joy he has in his work. I remember just looking at the photos in his camera after we took them and being in awe at how beautiful they already were. He has a fantastic eye for lighting and angles. Kevin captured the emotions and energy of our wedding so well. The colors are so rich and the shots are set perfectly. In some of the photos I feel like I am looking at a scene from a Bollywood film. My wife and I highly recommend Markland Photography for your wedding photography!
We had a very small, intimate ceremony and what we truly cared about was getting incredible photos - Kevin was able to capture our mountain elopement even better than we ever had imagined it. Not every photographer would hike up a mountain for a wedding, but from the start Kevin was more than willing to do so. We could not be any happier and are so glad that we hired him, 1000/10 recommend!
We were very pleased with Markland Photography. Kevin was so easy to work with from our first meeting, to our engagement shoot, to postponing not once but twice, and finally the day he captured our wedding. Although we did not have our typical wedding, I am more than happy with the pictures we received. He was great to have around that day as was his assistant. I would recommend hiring him and his team.
Kevin was truly amazing to work with! We had booked him pre-covid, and had many last minute changes to our date and venue trying to reschedule everything. He was so easy and stress-free to work with, and did everything he could to accommodate our changes and work with us. He is talented, professional, and made everyone feel comfortable (so much so that guests thought we had hired a long-time friend to do our pictures!). The finished product is beyond beautiful and we could not be happier!
Kevin was my favorite vendor to work with. He made the whole process smooth, stress-free, and most importantly fun! I would definitely highly recommend him to everyone!!
My husband and I met with a lot of photographers trying to find one that fit our personalities. We wanted someone fun who would make us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Kevin is down to earth, talented and funny. We told him we wanted all the formal pictures done before reception and he made it happen. Simply put, Kevin knows what’s good. He is easy going, open to suggestions, and knows how to have fun. His shots were so creative, and the gallery we received is absolutely GORGEOUS. Not to mention he sent us sneak peaks the night of the wedding (1:30 a.m.)with an email stating that he couldn’t help but stay up to edit some of the beautiful shots. If you want someone with talent and one of the biggest hearts you’ve ever seen, give him a call. His assistant, John is fabulous too.
If you don't book with Markland Photography then you are missing out!
AI was in a wedding where Kevin was the photographer and I knew right then I needed him to photograph my wedding too. He made everything so easy ( even if you have 100 questions and change locations 3 months out). He made myself and my more stoic husband feel super comfortable. He manages to get photos of the smallest detail. We had hundreds of photos, one better than the next...yet you forgot he was even there. I can't thank him enough for giving us the gift of our photos..we will be forever obsessed with them.
Markland photography was exactly what my husband and I wanted on our wedding day! Kevin had done my best friends wedding about a year prior to ours and we knew we wanted him to do our wedding as well. He really takes the time to connect with the bride and groom and find out what works best for them in terms of pictures and style. Kevin also did engagement photos for us and they came out perfect. He knows exactly how to work with natural light to create beautiful pictures. We recently received our wedding photos back and the time and precise effort he puts into even the packaging is unbelievable. We absolutely LOVE our wedding pictures. Everyone we have showed them to can’t say enough good things about them. One comment that keeps coming up is how he captured all the guests and my husband and I naturally throughout the wedding and reception. There are great candid shots as well as amazing family pictures. We could not be happier with our choice. We recommend Markland Photography to everyone!
I have no idea where to begin! Kevin is truly a gem when it comes to vendors in the wedding industry. When we got engaged my husband right away mentioned Kevin being our wedding photographer from following his journey through social media. I was immediately sold on his work but had no idea how blown away we would be when it came to our wedding day. We are not picture takers and are very awkward when it comes to anything cheesy and posed. Kevin made us and our family more than comfortable when it came to taking pictures. Looking through our amazing photos it's so incredible how he captured our day so perfectly down to every simple detail. Kevin dealt with our guests amazingly and captured lifetime memories for us and we will forever be grateful for that!
Look no further, Kevin is the photographer for you! From the moment we met Kevin, we knew he was the fit for us. He worked with our budget and wish list to create the perfect package for us. Don't let his professional, and mild -mannered personality fool you, him and his team are the HYPE CREW you want to spend the day with. As soon as he arrived to begin photographing our getting ready shots, he brought the fun and high energy with him. He came with so many beautiful and creative ideas, but also made sure to accomplish every photo we wanted. He was willing to climb through bushes, and crawl on the ground just to get the perfect shot. Though I have not seen my completed gallery, I feel confident in the teasers he sent me alone that the pictures will make me feel like I am reliving the day. Not only my bridal party, but also my family, STILL cannot stop talking about how much fun they had with Kevin and his team and how comfortable he made everyone feel. I can't wait to see the rest of his work!!
Kevin was an absolutely perfect addition to our wedding day! He blended in with the wedding party and guests so naturally and truly made us feel comfortable during every photo op. Kevin’s easygoing personality made all of the posed photo shots feel more natural and made the whole process fun for us! We were so happy to have him as part of our big day and he truly captured all of the unforgettable emotions and moments of our big day. We were blown away by his photos and how he captured all of the happy moments in the most natural way. I would highly recommend Kevin to anyone!
Having the pleasure of Markland photography being with you on your special day, makes it that much more special.
We got married on 09/27/2019 and even
Before booking our venue for the wedding, my wife and I already knew we would be using Kevin and his team to document our day, based on the passion, professionalism and poise we witnessed at my best friends wedding, two years prior. Not only were we impressed with his talented work, but our personalities clicked instantly, which made the decision very easy.
We choose to do engagement photos with Kevin, which he highly recommends, in order for each of us to get more familiar with each other’s ideas and styles (this will also be a great bonding time with Kevin to get to know exactly how personable and comforting he is). He has a ton of experience so he is great at suggesting ideal locations if you aren't set on a specific ambiance.
My wife and I couldn’t of been more happy with the way the photos came out. AND THE WAY HE DELIVERS THEM!!! (No spoilers ) but Kevin’s personal touches go a hell of a long way and it makes your experience with his company that much more satisfying and relieving.
Onto the wedding day: there’s no secrets; your wedding day can be one of the most stressful days of your life, especially as a man. I don’t get to see my better half all day. I don’t get to make sure everything is going just right for her. I don’t get to calm her down when whatever minuscule little thing that morning was pissing her off.
Cue Kevin Markland.
My wife and all of her bridesmaids really made it a point to let us know how great their experience was with Kevin in the room photographing the moments before the wedding . Just his presence and attitude and personality alone can really make your day turn around.
In the guys room, we had the pleasure of being joined by the ever so talented Jon, who worked alongside Kevin all day and who just like Kevin, has such a contagious, personable attitude which I continue to repeat throughout this review , however it literally MAKES EVERYTHING about the day. Jon really knew what and where to capture as the guys were getting ready. You wouldn’t of even known he was in the room while he was shooting , that’s how “in the moment” it was . Even the little touches like to which window in the suite had better lighting for my gift reveal photos or even making sure he captured me and my dad having a pre wedding heart to heart without us even knowing.
Jon, thank you.
Timing timing timing, it’s do or die when it comes to a wedding day and Markland photography knows all about it. Kevin and his crew made it a point to make sure we hit all of the spots my wife and I requested and made them at the right time of the day and with enough time to get a couple of laughs in!
Markland photography, thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU.
For making our day just that much more comforting and special.
You captured more moments than we anticipated and you created more smiles
the whole day than your job description entails
Can’t wait to see the finishing touches!
Kevin and his team are hands down the nicest, easiest and most comfortable professionals to work with. My Husband was a little concerned that we would be spending most our wedding day posing for pictures and missing the party, but Kevin and Jon worked so efficiently and so positively we were able to enjoy the whole evening! They made us feel so at ease and so beautiful. We are in awe of how stunning the pictures are, they truly captured treasured moments that we will cherish forever.
Kevin was amazing to work with, from our engagement shoot through our wedding day! My husband and I live in the city, and Kevin was so flexible in meeting up with us throughout the wedding planning process. He met us in the city for our engagement shoot, and walked the entire High Line with us, getting so many shots with all of the different scenery along the way.
We had two photographers for our wedding day (Kevin and John) and both were so easy to work with. Kevin was with the bridemaids and I getting ready, and in addition to all of the photos getting ready he was also able to get "first look" photos with my dad. I sent Kevin some photos I had seen and liked before the wedding, and he used them as inspiration to get some shots of our bridal party after the ceremony that I love! We had a great experience working with Kevin, and are so happy with how all of the photos have turned out!
Kevin was absolutely amazing from the start. He is very kind, patient, and thoughtful about everything he does. When planning, he made us feel confident and relaxed about what to expect. He was amazing on the day of the wedding. He is very courteous, respectful, and professional. He’s a great artist who is open to collaboration and worked really well with us and the videographers. We loved having Kevin around! Not to mention, his photos are gorgeous and we couldn’t ask for better!!
From the first time we have met to the engagement photo shoot to the wedding day to the day we have received our finished photos Kevin had demonstrated a remarkable degree of enthusiasm, professionalism, and creativity. He listened carefully to all of our concerns, took detailed notes, and made the whole experience feel stress free and very personal. On the big day Kevin was seemingly everywhere at once, working tirelessly to capture amazing photos of us as well as of our guests. I am very happy that Kevin was our wedding photographer and I can not recommend him enough to others.
Kevin and his staff are simply AMAZING! They really are more than photographers... From the beginning through to the end they offered endless support, advice and guidance to my daughter and son in law. On the day itself we felt in safe hands and it was like having a friend there with you! Their experience and professionalism shines through, allowing you to relax and have the best day of your lives. Kevin made my daughter feel at such ease the morning of the wedding & handled every photo I was asking him to take with such care. If you’re thinking about booking them for your wedding , DO IT!!! You won’t be disappointed ! They have captured memories we will cherish forever, so happy they were apart of this tremendously special day.
Where to begin..
We knew we wanted Markland Photography even prior to knowing what venue we wanted to book, that’s how sure we were about his work, something just seemed so us in it.
From the moment of our initial meeting Kevin was welcoming and attentive. He listened to exactly what we wanted and did not want noting everything down.
We did an engagement shoot with him a few months after booking, which was flawless. My husband and myself are NOT photo people. In fact we are so awkward it’s terrible – but Kevin made it feel like we were all just hanging out for the day. Nothing super posed or too proper and let us just be us (this is why we booked him to begin with, we are all about those candids).
Fast forward to wedding day. John, his assistant, is a wildly talented photographer and it makes sense why he works along side Kevin. He is funny & easy to talk to. He was in my husbands room but I had the pleasure of dealing with him personally during my first look which almost ended in a disaster for permit reasons until they both put that fire out with poise.
Now, onto Kevin himself.
BOOK HIM. I cannot stress enough book this company.
Kevin is a downright good person. He is honest, compassionate, calming, attentive and kickass at what he does. There is NO better person to put that responsibility on then him and his staff. Long Island is packed with photographers who can take talented photos or at least edit photos to look good, but you’re a number to them. Not every photographer will sit in a room with you talking your nerves down, helping you get lipstick off your dress & genuinely caring. He takes the time to get to know you both and your story... He makes you feel as if you’ve known him your entire life, and ladies/gentlemen I am going to be honest – on your wedding day that’s exactly what you need, TRUST ME...
He is the type of person who starts as a vendor when you book him and becomes a lifelong friend. You cannot go wrong with that; good people are hard to come by and by all means he is the exact definition of a damn good person.
If you are on the fence about reaching out or booking him, please take the leap just hit the information button and shoot him a message – you will not be disappointed.
My wedding was flawless and I couldn’t be more satisfied with my choice. I would choose Kevin over and over again his work is impeccable and his personality is unmatchable. Don’t make the mistake of going elsewhere.
To Kevin & Staff, keep doing what you are doing because your damn good at it, MUCH MUCH LOVE to all of you.
Kevin was the best photographer I could have ever asked for. From the beginning till the end. The pictures were flawless and he kept us laughing along the way. He did an amazing job and was part of our party crowd. Every step of the way he made us feel so comfortable as if we were friends for such a long time. He is genuine and his work is phenomenal and on top of everything else he made us feel like the couple of the century. I highly recommend him!!!!
Kevin was absolutely amazing! His pictures are stunning, and he went above and beyond to make sure we had all of the pictures we could possibly want to remember our wedding day! Kevin takes the time to understand his clients to make sure everything is exactly how you want. He was able to do all of this without feeling like I was being followed by the paparazzi or intruding on private moments. Best photographer I could've asked for!
Kevin and his crew were amazing to work with! From the very initial meeting up until the day of the wedding, Kevin was attentive relatable and easy to work with! My husband and I found his so easy to work with, he helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was everything and anything you would hope for in a wedding photographer! Choosing the right photographer was very taxing, but I am certainly glad we chose levin and his team , he truly is a one man show, and somehow manages to give each of his clients the attention and dedication he promises! His packages are super competitive and comprised of exactly what you need for all things wedding photos. He help design and produce my save the dates and thank you cards! He also does great custom wood work and each package is uniquely designed for you! If you are looking for a stand out photographer I highly recommend Kevin and his team, great work great quality and extremely attentive and passionate about the work!
If we had to go back and plan our wedding again, we would choose Kevin as our photographer every single time. Kevin was the first photographer we met with when we started planning our wedding, everyone we met after that we kept comparing to him and none of them even came close to the outstanding work Kevin does and how personable he is. He's so easy to work with, laid back, funny but still does an amazing job with photos. On the day of our wedding, Kevin and his assistant Jon arrived early and were so much fun. He had great ideas for pictures. And even though it was pouring, we got some AMAZING shots in the rain. He was never pushy, never made us do anything we didnt want to do. We only went outside for a few minutes and barely missed any of our wedding at all and got all the shots we wanted. We didnt book Kevin to stay the entire night, only up until the last hour. We had an issue with our venue and when Kevin heard about it, he stayed the entire night for us. Talk about excellent service! During the whole process he really feels like a friend more than your photographer and his pictures are so great, we even used him for a birthday photoshoot for our dog! I can't recommend him enough!
Kevin is the absolute best! His love for photography and commitment to get you great photos shines through his work! He is easy to get along with, friendly and makes everyone feel comfortable! He made such an amazing addition to my team on my wedding day!
If you couldn’t tell by the 3 straight best of the knot awards, Markland Photography is the way to go. Kevin truly cares about the couples he works with. We first met with Kevin a little over 2 years ago to discuss engagement photos first and we knew the second we left the meeting that there was no other choice but to go with Markland Photography. Kevin’s desire to really get to know the couples story and who they are as individuals shines so bright through the eagerness in his voice and you can see the excitement and passion in his eyes. Fast forward to our wedding day and you couldn’t get any more professional. Not only will Kevin and his crew show up early, they will be full of positive energy and excitement to share your special day with you. We have never felt so comfortable and laid back on what could be the most nervous day of your life. We can’t outnumber into words how over the moon we are with our finalaized photographs, especially the talent in the candid shots that were captured. Everything with Markland Photogrpahy is personalized to the couple from the custom box and flash drive with your photos. Kevin even included a note thanking US! Please do yourself a favor and take a meeting with Kevin and you’ll see that Markland Photogrpahy is the photographer of your dreams and you’ll have amazingly captured memories for a lifetime to reflect on.
There just aren’t enough words to describe how truly amazing and talented Kevin is. Although it takes a bit longer to get your photos back, trust me, it’s worth the wait! When people ask how my photos turned out, I say, “magical” because they truly are! Every photo is so dreamy and captures all of the beauty of our special day. His calm demeanor and professionalism can never be matched. I also think it’s important to say that he was never in anyone’s way. I’ve read some reviews that have talked about his candids vs. formal pictures, and although he specializes in his candid shots, if you want him to shoot something specific, just tell him, and he’ll find a way to get it done!!! We are so happy that we chose Kevin to be our wedding photographer, and have even referred him to some of our closest friends who have used/ are going to use him as well. We are so excited to select our photos for our album and will rest assured that it will be just as amazing as everything else. :)
What more can I say about this class act of a man that is Kevin Markland of Markland Photography.
From the Minute he touched a camera, nothing but magic has left the man's visionary skill of capturing moments in people's lives that last forever. My first ever shoot with Kevin were headshots in 2008, and till this day, I still use those pictures. Ive seen him do other amazing work in all his years of growth and development that sparked pretty much national acclaim all over the board.
So it was only right that Kevin was going to shoot my engagement photos AND wedding ultimately, and man these pics were absolutely breathtaking to my fiancée and I. He guided us perfectly to be our natural selves around each other, and even though it was a cold beach day, we were having so much fun we couldn't feel a thing!! Just pure joy and love that POPS out of these pictures, OMG. I cant get enough of this man and his work!!
My future wedding pictures will be amazing thanks to this man, and I cant WAIT for him to be a huge part of our special day!!
Kevin, Brother, you're the greatest. I can't even begin to thank you enough. You're deserving of everything you've done so far, keep making people's special days, and happiness come to life!! You're awesome!!
I would like to start by saying how amazing and professional Kevin is and I could not recommend him enough! He’s been our photographer since the beginning of our engagement and my fiancé and I couldn’t be happier. Words cannot describe what a fantastic photographer he is! You can tell he truly loves what he does, and the pictures show his absolute talent! Looking forward to having him at our wedding next month and capture some precious memories for my fiancé and I.
I could never properly express how amazing Kevin helped make our wedding day! Not only was he professional and fun, but he has an incredible eye for what helps make a good photo. He made sure we got all the pictures we wanted while also capturing tons of candid moments. If I could give him 100 stars, it still wouldn’t be enough!!!!!!!
Do not hesitate to book with Kevin! He is a top notch professional and just a down to earth guy. He really blew our expectations out of the water! Kevin and his assistant photographer Jon pay attention to every detail and really make you feel comfortable on such a stressful day! We booked two photographers with Markland Photography so we could have pictures of the bridesmaids getting ready and the groomsmen getting ready, and for extra photos at the ceremony for that special moment. We could not be happier we did! We have so many amazing pictures. Kevin even did an engagement photo shoot for us! We were so impressed with the creativity of all the pictures. Kevin is a true artist! It was also super convenient as Kevin does prints and photo albums. Everything was just so easy and refreshing with Markland Photography. Highly recommended! A++++++
Kevin was the best!! My boyfriend hired him to document his proposal and our engagement party and we loved hanging out with him so much that we asked him to come to our event two nights later! He is sweet and open to anything that you may want to capture. I look forward to working with him again!!
Kevin and Jon were the best! I couldn't have asked for a better team to capture the most important parts of our wedding. The morning of, we were running slightly late, Kevin knew I was stressed, he was calm, solution-oriented and patient.
EVERYONE has commented on the pictures, they came out gorgeous and had the exact vision of what we were looking for. I promise these guys won't be a disappointment.
Thank you again for everything!!!
Kevin and John were so awesome to work with. We met Kevin at a friend’s wedding and immediately knew that we wanted him to shoot ours. Taking pictures was something that I usually dread at weddings, but Kevin and John are not only easy to work with, but the photos that they took were amazing. We had such a great time with them it seemed like they were just regular guests at the party! Very affordable and really cool pics!
Kevin is one of the best photographers hands down! He captured hundreds of amazing shots from the guys at the barber shop in the morning to the fire truck entrance, to the freezing cold night shots we really wanted! He managed to turn our shivering faces into smiles! Kevin even passed his camera around so he could join in on the fun! He was professional and caring and we couldn't have had a better experience with him. Thank you very much to Kevin and his team for really making our day so perfect. 5 stars across the board!
Kevin was absolutely incredible. There are no words to describe how much we loved working with him for our engagement photos and on the day of our wedding. He truly was the best and most accommodating photographer I have ever worked with! Everyone who sees my engagement photos is completely blown away by how beautiful they are; we cannot wait to see the wedding photos. Thank you Kevin for being a part of our special day!
Kevin was simply the best. He was attentive, patient and extremely accommodating. No one is better than Kevin and I would recommend him to everyone. He takes the best pictures and has truly mastered his craft.
Kevin is awesome! He is so easy to work with and truly knows his stuff. He makes your wedding day easier! He and his assistant and co-photographer did such an amazing job to make us feel comfortable and not overly “posed”. They’re so down to earth and professional and just great overall. LOVE them!
Kevin and his assistant John were awesome! They were both so easy to work with and even fit in well with our friends throughout the day and had some fun with us! Everyone in my bridal party talked about how nice they were and how much they liked them. We got all the posed pics out of the way by cocktail hour and the rest of the night they did their thing without us needing to worry about anything. Our engagement shoot came out beautifully last summer, so we
can’t wait for the wedding pictures! We highly recommend Kevin!
kevin is so incredibly easy going and a pleasure to work with! He made the day of the wedding a completely stress free and enjoyable experience! Both of our moms couldn’t stop gushing about how fantastic he was and many of my recently engaged friends asked for his contact info after the wedding. Most importantly...the pictures came out absolutely stunning and we couldn’t be happier! He is also so reasonably priced there is no way you could go wrong with choosing him!
What struck me most about Kevin from our initial consultation onward was his professionalism, and his calm demeanor. He came prepared, provided us with his vision for our wedding and was very open to our suggestions. On the big day that professionalism continued. From pre-wedding to the late night photos, Kevin and team were able to manage the chaos and capture some very important moments. All of his shots hit the mark. Formal, candid, "plandid" - you name it. He brought an element of creativity that helped us solidify our memories. At no point during the night did we feel pressured by him. He has great time management and provides great direction. He truly is talented and obviously passionate about his work, and that goes for his team as well. Photography is one of the most important parts of the day. If you have the opportunity to work with Markland Photography, take it. It will make a difference.
Kevin is a personable, efficient individual and a brilliant photographer. He took the time to meet with my husband and I ahead of time and discuss details, and was always a quick text/email away if we had any questions. The day of, he was early and cheerful, taking pictures of the guests who had arrived early and establishing a relationship with basically the entire guest list, making everyone feel at ease and comfortable. So many photogs have a tendency to get in the way or pose people uncomfortably and Kevin was the exact opposite. There was zero stress. He floated in and out of the crowd all afternoon, taking wonderfully intimate and candid shots while making use of the natural atmosphere and lighting.
His demeanor was calm and cool, and I can't stress enough how comfortable everything felt. That kind of relaxation - on your wedding day! - goes a long way and certainly shows in his finished pictures. He will perfectly capture the emotion and aura of your day in the most unexpected ways.
My beautiful bride and I met with Kevin about two years before our wedding date to book him. He came Highly recommended from my cousin, who had hired him for her wedding. He was professional yet friendly during each of our in person meetings. He really wanted to understand what made us unique as a couple, so he could capture our personalities. Kevin shot our engagement photos, which we used for our 'save the dates'. Our wedding went as smooth as we could have hoped, and the photos can only be described by one word. INCREDIBLE! Kevin and his team captured every intimate moment and all the details we put into the ceremony and reception. He also ran our photobooth as well as helped us keeping the day on time. I don't know how he does it all! Now onto the photos! They were well worth the wait to get them back, and our album gives both of us butterflies re-living each of the moments he captured.
There is absolutely no other option when it comes to your engagement or wedding photographer. It's Kevin and his team- or bust!
Kevin is an awesome photographer and person! We loved working with him for our engagement photos and on our wedding day! He traveled down to philly for our engagement pics and we had so much fun walking around and capturing the charm around the city. He has a great eye for finding the best shots. Our wedding day was so smooth and wonderful. He and his 2nd photographer were competent, thorough and fun to work with. They let our personalities shine through but also guided us to have beautiful pictures.
HIGHLY Recommended!! We cannot say enough good things about them! Even our guests were asking if they had cards so they can use them! Awesome, loving, FUN, people to work with. Michael was so much fun and willing to do anything for good pictures! I could rant for a while so i'll leave it with 5 stars and i'm sure my guests will keep you guys busy! Thank you SO much for everything! We are beyond excited to see how the pictures came out!!
In the words of my husband, "Kevin was like having another groomsman." When we began searching for photographers, many companies asked us to fill out surveys so they could place us with the right photographer. This felt very impersonal and made the process forced. From the moment Kevin quickly responded, I felt comfortable and at ease. Kevin is very laid back and easy to work with. He met us at a bar near our apartment and we observed his creativity and passion for capturing the beauty in everything.
We had a blast taking engagement photos with him. This gave us an opportunity to get to know him, and for him to know our style. There was some back and forth with the day of our engagement photos, and also our wedding date. Kevin remained patient, understanding and communicative the entire time.
On our wedding day, I continued to feel comfortable with Kevin and his assistant. He was super friendly to everyone - I kept getting great feedback from my family and friends throughout the day about how great he is. Other vendors we hired even commented on how easy he was to be around. One took his information so they can recommend him to others.
Our photos were exactly what we expected from an amazing and talented photographer like Kevin. His photos come on a very cool flash drive with a picture of the couple, in a box that also has a picture. This was very interesting and unique. Kevin is not just a great photographer, but a damn good human being. Do not waste your time taking impersonal surveys for wedding photographers. Kevin will accommodate all of your needs!
Kevin and his team are true professionals! They kept us calm and on schedule and handled our chaotic family photos with great patience, which was terrific as we have a huge family! They absolutely ensured that all requested photos were taken and further- they were right there for the candid shots too! I would highly recommend them for sure! Great job Kevin!!
Kevin and his team went above and beyond to make our day so perfect. He worked very hard to take every picture we wanted, and now we have incredible memories of that day that will last a lifetime. All of the pictures came out perfect and we are so happy that we made the right decision by picking Markland photography!
Kevin was nothing short of awesome. He was easy to work with, a great communicator, flexible, and most importantly, a talented photographer.
My finance and I wanted to photographer who wouldn’t be overly serious or overly staged. When we saw Kevin’s photos and spoke with him we knew right away that he would strike the perfect balance of professional, laid back and fun. This resulted in natural, fun, bright photos we will cherish forever.
Kevin was really collaborative with us throughout the entire process. We explained to him the look and feel we wanted in our photos and he delivered on that no questions asked. He was also open to hearing our ideas and sharing his ideas with us. This collaborative process made the photos feel uniquely us.
Kevin was also incredibly accommodating & flexible. A storm hit the day our engagement photos were scheduled so we had to cancel. Kevin promptly rescheduled at the earliest possible convenience to ensure we still had the photos in time to use one as our save the date. Additionally, he was an absolute champ the week of our wedding – accommodating a shifting schedule as we worked to get photos in between periods of bad weather.
Photos are one of the only things you after the cake has been severed and the band stops playing. We are thrilled with our choice to work with Kevin to capture these memories.
Kevin Markland was the best choice for photographer! Not only are we in love with our pictures, but his presence at the wedding helped move things along and helped me get through wedding day stress. I can't recommend him enough! He is an expert in his craft and such a down to earth professional. He made us and our family feel relaxed and comfortable. All of our guests loved him and his assistant as well.
The best part was when we received our pictures, they came in a beautiful custom made wooden box and were on a custom made wooden USB stick. So cute and is a great item to display. He provided us every single image in both print and web quality instead of making us quickly choose off of a temporary website. Not only are the pictures gorgeous, but the file quality is exceptional.
I really can't praise Kevin enough, we couldn't have asked for a better experience with a photographer. For the quality of work, his sweet and flexible personality, and fantastically affordable rates, look no further than Markland Photography.
My husband and I absolutely loved working with Kevin and his second photographer, John, on our wedding day. From our first meeting with Kevin, you can truly feel his passion for his craft and that he cares about the couples he works with. He offered us an incredible package including a beautiful album, prints and a photo booth with two staff to work the booth at our wedding which was a HUGE hit! The day of the wedding, Kevin was more than a photographer, he was a wedding coordinator extraordinaire! Not to mention he's just a fun guy to hangout with all day! Our bridal party loved him and John. They were so excited and enthusiastic to shoot at or venue, The Foundry, in Long Island City. It's such a unique industrial venue with a lot of cool places to shoot. I know they took so many awesome shots that I am just dying to see! Do not hesitate to meet with Kevin!!!!!! Thank you Kevin! Love, Christina & Derek
After meeting Kevin and looking through his photos, we canceled all of our upcoming photography appointments. Not only is he such a cool person, but his work was amazing. We recently got our pictures and are so happy at how beautiful and perfect they are. We really didn't know what style of photography we were looking for, but Kevin was somehow able to figure it out because we love every picture. My parents and bridesmaids were raving about what a nice guy and unobtrusive photographer he was. If you want to feel like you are someone's only client and you want gorgeous photos, hire Kevin!
Kevin was hands down the perfect photographer for our wedding. From our first initial meeting I knew this guy was going to take care of us because he truly loves what he does. I'm a self declared type A person but I really felt like I could enjoy my wedding day because Kevin was anticipating almost everything before it even happened. He always had our best interest in mind and made us feel so comfortable. My family and friends absolutely adored him and he worked so well with our videographers and venue. He's also extremely good at calming nerves and making people feel rest assured. He's a true gem and I wouldn't pass up the opportunity to work with him again.
My husband and I knew from the moment we met with Kevin that we wanted to work with him. He is so passionate about what he does and that passion radiates from him instantly. His work is beautiful and we knew that he would be the one for us! Our engagement session was great -- I was extremely nervous and anxious, and Kevin was so kind and patient and did everything he could to help me relax. The planning process with him was smooth as well -- he is very responsive to emails and is thorough in them as well, which is helpful. On our wedding day, Kevin greeted me at the hotel with a huge smile! Throughout the day he checked in with me, which in my opinion, isn't in his job description, but he did it anyway. He genuinely cares about his clients and that meant more to Tom and me than anything. We felt that we gained a friend from this experience. My family and our bridal party loved Kevin as well -- they commenting on how kind, friendly, and funny he was. They are still talking about him a month later. Choosing Kevin was one of the best decisions we made and I will be forever grateful for him and his work!
One of the best decisions my husband I made was choosing Kevin to be our wedding day photographer. From day one Kevin made us feel comfortable and put our minds at ease during the planning process. His work speaks for itself, I still cannot get over how incredibly beautiful my photos are. He has such an artistic eye and captures priceless moments. Thanks again Kevin, you're the best!!
We are so over the moon to have had Kevin and his assistant John apart of our wedding! We knew from the 1st time we met with Kevin that he needed to be out photographer. He is always so nice and helpful with everything. Our engagement shoot was so much fun and the pictures are beautiful!! The way he gives you your photos is incredible! It so personal, he made me feel like I was the only bride he was working with! Always answered my emails and calls and I know I was bugging him a lot but he was always professional and nice! For the day of the wedding both Kevin and John came dressed very professionally, down to their dress shoes. They were never in anyone's way but were always there to capture each magical moment. All of our guest really liked Kevin, even my mom really liked him and she isn't an easy woman to please! They are both a pleasure to work with and I cannot say enough great things about them! For us, the photographer was the most important vendor and we know we picked the best!! Thank you so much Kevin!!
Kevin Markland & his team executed our wedding photos beautifully! We knew we liked Kevin after seeing (and shamelessly loving) photos of ourselves from another wedding he photographed that we attended and our photos came out just as wonderful as we imagined. On a day when stress levels are high and families are running from one place to the next, Kevin & his team provided solace and calm for the bridal party and made the "getting ready" shots a dream come true. No uncomfortable posing throughout the day, just natural candid shots and moments you didn't even know you wanted captured, but are so grateful to have. The passion in Kevin's eyes when he previewed photos back when we did our summer engagement shoot was enough for us to know we chose a great photographer, but seeing the results made it clear that we made a stellar choice. Thank you, Markland Photography, for everything you did for us! You helped create visual memories we will cherish for a lifetime. xx, The Velkoffs
Markland was the best investment on our special day. I couldn't be more happy with my choice. We got exactly what we were looking for. None of the pictures looked forced, which was my concern. No phony poses and fake smiles, incredible action shots. My guests ADORED him. Very charming and makes the pictures seem like he was always in the right place at the right time. I've personally recommended Kevin to family and friends. He's doing my best friends wedding (after i introduced them) has done my sisters bridal shower and my engagement shoot also.
Kevin is amazing! When my fiance and I met with him, we were blown away by is passion. We instantly knew that we were going to hire him but we wanted to do our due diligence, so we met with a few other photographers before calling Kevin and asking him to be our photographer. He, hands down, met all the check boxes we had for photography and more. During the course of the year, we
