e day of my wedding so our original picture location had to be changed quickly, and I'm so glad it did. Our photographers did a great job thinking on the spot and they got very creative - the pictures turned out really well. They were so fun to work with. I would highly highly highly recommend them!

Thank you soo much
We opted to have our engagement pictures and our wedding pictures to be done by Optic Light Photography. During both, we were in charge of our sessions. Meaning, if there was a sho...
t we really wanted or something we weren't really happy with, Kevin was quick to change to accommodate our suggestions. On the day of the wedding, they were prompt and got a lot of shots I didn't even think of including. It was a fun and stress-free atmosphere and they helped us capture our wedding with some really gorgeous photos.
My husband and I knew immediately we wanted to work with Kevin of Optic Light Photography after seeing the amazing work he did for my brother and sister-in-law for their wedding. K...
evin was a joy to work with, took great photos, and drove to where we were at no extra charge. During the wedding and reception he was constantly shooting pictures, yet you never really noticed he was there - very important to us! He made everything entertaining when taking lots of pictures in the heat, when it can be tedious and sometimes feel like it takes a long time. He was smooth and efficient and we got everything we needed done quickly and well. For how good Kevin is, we were surprised to find out how affordable he is as a photographer. He was open to any and all suggestions we had for photo ideas - we just emailed him pictures ideas from Pinterest (some of them were even his already!). Overall, I have already recommended Kevin to a bride-to-be and will continue to recommend him to anyone who is looking for an amazing photographer!
I have been involved in some way in many different weddings, and this photography group was one of the best I have ever worked with. They were professional, laid back, detail-orie...
nted, but still made sure everyone was having a good time. I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer that they feel will best capture their day!
Optic Light Photography did a wonderful job with my wedding. Kevin and Daniel were very friendly, professional and listened to what I wanted. They had amazing ideas for pictures wh...
ich turned out better than I could have imagined. They captured the most important moments of my wedding and I would highly recommend them to any bride!
Kevin is amazing! When we first met him at our engagement shoot it was so easy. He had so many great ideas and was so personable. The day of our wedding was exactly the same. He ...
was always readily available whenever I had a question (which was a lot) and was always very helpful. Our pictures turned out amazing and I couldn't have asked for anything better!
Optic light shot my engagement photos and wedding photos and I couldn't have been more pleased! I loved their ideas and yet were open to any photo ideas I had! They worked so inc...
redibly hard and went with us everywhere on our wedding day and stayed late into the night to make sure they got every single detail! Not to mention taking photos outside on a cold and bitter december day! What also was amazing was how quickly I received my edited photo CD! I honestly can't thank optic light enough for capturing one of the most amazing days of my life!! I definitely recommend Optic Light Photography!
Optic Light Photography was very professional, super friendly and I would recommend them to anyone! I was very pleased all around and will always have great pictures to remember my...
spectacular wedding day.
Love the guys, they were so much fun and got a ton of great pictures.
My husband and I used Optic Light for our wedding photography about 2 years ago, and we had a great experience! From the comparisons I made doing a little online research before bo...
oking, Kevin takes the best, nicest looking photos out of anyone in the area and his packages are very reasonably priced. He even included CD's of all of our proofs and the rights to have them printed for personal use, so you're not forced to order prints from him. We did get a nice photo album as part of our package, and it's a good quality album that we keep on our coffee table to show off to our friends and family. He did a great job capturing all the highlights from our special day and the personalities of our family and bridal party, and had a good turn-around time between shooting our wedding and sending us our proofs. Overall, I would highly recommend Optic Light to anyone searching for a wedding photographer!
Thanks to Kevin and the Optic Light team, I have absolutely beautiful, well thought out, wedding photos! My husband and I got married in Fall (our favorite season) and only hoped t...
hat our photographer was able to capture the beauty of the season mixed with our wedding and we got just that! Kevin put together some very fun shoots for not only our wedding party but for my husband and I as well! He also dealt with both our crazy families and all of their picture requests! All of the formal wedding pictures as well as the ceremony pictures were breathtaking! He was also able to capture all the fun we had at the reception! A truly outstanding job!! Kevin was great to work with; very personable, down to earth, and he put up with my neurotic list making! I highly recommend Optic Light Photography! They are a great company and outstanding people! Thanks again for capturing the memories!
Optic light did an awesome job catching the moments of my wedding. Really fun guys to work with. Very experienced with lots of great ideas. Would recommend to anyone. Beautiful pho...
tographs that will help keep memories that will last forever.
Easy going, easy to work with and very good at capturing the pictures you request.
At the time of our wedding Kevin was not only our wedding photographer but our district alderman. Not that this matters to you but alderman tend to be stuck up and act like they ar...
e too good for the general public. Not true at all with Kevin. He is an amazing photographer and completely down to earth. He was easy to approach, talk to and laugh with. The experience was not awkward at all. He did every photo we asked him to do and more which made our wedding experience more enjoyable. Personally, I cannot smile for a picture if my life depended on it and Kevin was able to capture moments where my true smile is showing and I am grateful for those moments. The price of his services was extremely reasonable. We paid for 10 hours of service and got $200 in photo credit, two high quality albums (each containing 40 pictures), an engagement photo session and a free photographer on the day of our wedding. Kevin definitely capture every amazing moment of our wedding and we couldn't have asked for anything more. We would highly recommend Kevin of Optic Light Photography to any bride seeking a professional photographer to capture her special day.
We used Optic Light Photography for our wedding in June 2010. The pictures turned out fabulous and Kevin was a pleasure to work with. Loved the fact that there were 2 photographers...
there for our wedding so every moment was captured. Kevin also does wonderful family photography, so we continue to use him for our yearly family photos. Couldn't ask for a better experience!
Kevin is a great guy! He is fun, easy to get a long with, and smart. He captured the happy, fun, and loving mood of our wedding day perfectly with nearly 3000 pictures! Most imp...
ortantly, my new wife was happy with Optic Light Photography so for that they get 5 stars!
Optic Light Photography has to be the best wedding photographer out there! Kevin was professional every step of the way. I knew he was prepared and well versed on the many details ...
of my wedding. He was accomadating and flexible to all of my requests. He was also very knowledgeable on photography and offered lots of helpful tips. Very importantly, he was fun and personable but keep things moving quickly and was organized! I could tell that Kevin very much cared about making sure my day went well and that he captured every special moment. I recently got my pictures back and they are AMAZING! I felt like I was reliving the day. I will cherish my pictures forever and I am so grateful to kevin for his amazing work. I would highly recommend Optic Light to anyone!!
Kevin did the photography at our wedding when he was first starting out Optic Light. Very professional and original. He aimed to please me and to make the captured memories of the ...
day how I wanted them. He allowed me to be involved in making our wedding book and highlighted all the photos that meant the most to us, including one of a rainbow that reminded me of my grandma that passed away.
We used Optic Light Photography, LLC for our engagement photos, as well as for our wedding day! We were so impressed with Kevin and Daniel and how on the ball they were with everyt...
hing. They were both very personable and easy to work with. They had great picture ideas and worked with us on what ideas we had too! Our families and wedding party had nothing but good things to say about them and after seeing our engagement photos, we CAN’T WAIT to see how great our wedding photos turn out!
Thank you Kevin and Daniel! You two truly are a remarkable team!
Great service! Made everything about pictures feel comfortable. It was like he was a part of the wedding!
Kevin Mathewson of Optic Light Photography was an AMAZING photographer. He was extremely professional yet at the same time personable. He new exactly was we wanted in our photos an...
d exceeded our expectations. I love his creativity and his ability to turn taking photos into a game or fun contest. I would definitely recommend Optic Light Photography for any event.
Best EVER!
We used optic light last summer for our wedding. We got our engagement photos done as part of our package and loved them, and over 2000 wedding photos after the wedding. It was so ...
great to see so many photos to lock in that moment and have them forever! We got to have two photographers on the day of our wedding so it was great to see it from the perspective of two people instead of just one. We always recommend optic light to our newly engaged friends! I would recommend them to you too!
I loved my wedding photos. Kevin is amazing and worked well with my whole family. He was great with the kids in the wedding and had a lot of great ideas for shots. He did everyth...
ing from engagement photos, ceremony, and reception. He was really receptive to everyone and their suggestions. I liked working with him so much, that when we had our second daughter this year we had him do our family photos as well.
Our pictures came out well. We were very happy with the job he did and all of the extras included in the price (2 shooters, engagement photos, album, and prints).
Kevin did a great job capturing one of the most memorable days of my life! He did everything I asked, made great suggestions, and even works well under unexpected circumstances!
...
Thanks again!
Mr. and Mrs. Panfil
We loved that we met with our photographer prior to our engagement session to get to know each other's personalities and expectations. We were so happy with our engagement photos t...
hat we couldn't wait to see the wedding photos, and we were, again, thrilled. The fun of the evening was captured beautifully and we loved that the photos were candid, catching the moments, not "posed" with lost emotion. Every shot captured exactly what was going on in the moment. The ceremony pictures are so emotional, every time we look at them we relive the day and saying our "I do's." Definitely more than satisfied with everything Optic Light Photography delivered!! Highly recommend!
Optic Light Photography did a wonderful job for our wedding!!! They were amazing to work with and captured every aspect of the day perfectly. I would highly recommend Optic Light...
to anybody looking for a photographer. The service is exceptional and it made the day much less stressful knowing that the pictures would be beautiful!
In all honesty I couldn't have had a better photographer. I think what my husband and I enjoyed most about Kevin was how comfortable he made us feel. We still talk about it till th...
is day actually. From the beginning too, this first time I met Kevin, we had an idea of what we wanted but Kevin brought so much more. The packages he offers too are just amazing! My husband and I paid for most of our wedding so while planning I did A LOT of shopping around. What Kevin brought to me was a wedding package that worked well with my budget but I didn't miss out on quality. I have recommended Kevin to many people and will continue to do so. This is the most special day in your life and there are so many things to worry about, with Kevin you know you won't have to worry about him missing out on anything!
For our wedding, we wanted a photography that took high quality photos, would release digital prints to us, and above all held our special day in the same high regard that we do. ...
Kevin and his assistant Theodore not only met our expectations, but dramatically exceeded them.
We're thrilled, so where do we begin? First of all, we only expected to have one photographer -- have two was a huge bonus. Second, we've been told by multiple folks that we look like models in our pictures. They are beautiful. Seriously. Beautiful. I have a slideshow of our pictures running constantly simply because I enjoy looking at the pictures. Third, they really captured every moment, every mood, every emotion. Everything was right -- lighting, setting, exposure, composition.
We'd choose them again 100x over if we had to. They've won best of the Knot for a reason. Do yourself a favor and go with Optic Light.
Optic Light Photography was everything I could hope for! very open to my ideas but also many great ideas of their own. It was very easy to get in contact with them and were on time...
and had everything I asked for ready to go. The photos came out amazing and had a lot to choose from! I would recommend Optic to anyone looking for a professional and fun experience.
Kevin was an awesome photographer for our wedding! He and an assistant were there the whole day for the ceremony and reception and for pictures at a few other locations in between!...
We had over 1800 pictures that we had all the rights to and they were all amazing! He was so creative and courageous and confident enough to put our rings on a Lilly pad! We enjoyed having him capture our day and love our pictures!
Photographers (Kevin and Daniel) were a lot of fun, easy going and took beautiful pictures. They helped to capture the special moments of our wedding day! I love looking at ...
our pictures from our wedding day and enjoy sharing our photographs with family and friends.
The photographers were very relaxed and flexible. They were accommodating and also came with great ideas and suggestions. They suggested a fun way to take pictures with every table and allowed our guests to be creative in their pictures.
I wanted to write a quick review of Optic Light Photography. Kevin (head photographer) was amazing to work with for pricing, engagement photos and details of the wedding. Kevin k...
new what I wanted, what I needed and even more than that. He was very professional, not even realizing he was there at the church and took a moment to capture the "little things." Kevin made sure that everything was perfect... from moving things to have a good back drop to having a list that he crossed off of the things that he knew that I really wanted. Kevin made me have a book of memories that will last forever. Kevin made my day the best day of my life. Nick and I will be forever grateful for someone so wonderful. Kevin truly has a calling in this profession and is so reasonable compared to any other photographers we looked at. Kevin rocks. Plain and simple. You cannot go wrong with Optic Light Photography, plus 2000 pictures!!!
Very easy to work with and happy with the results. Affordable, and won't dominate the budget. I would have liked to see more editing done, but the pictures were very beautiful. I ...
would definitely recommend Optic Light Photography!
Kevin was great to work with. Our engagement pics were beautiful and I know our wedding pictures will be even better. He was very fun to work with.
Kevin is a phenomenal professional to work with. He was fun, interactive, and our friends and family loved him. One thing that my husband and I realized after viewing our pictures ...
was that he was able to capture so many special moments without us even realizing he was there. Having the engagement pictures included was awesome and he even came to Milwaukee for us. The first thing he said to us was that he was working for us, and only us. He stayed true to his word and was able to capture each and every component of the entire day with a beautiful collection of photographs. We will definitely be contacting him in the future as our family grows.
Kevin, the owner of Optic Light Photography, has great talent with the camera. We haven't received our wedding photos yet, but our engagement photos turned out awesome! On our wedd...
ing day Kevin and his assistant made the day so much more fun for us- the photo session before the reception wasn't merely a "click and next pose" session- it flowed great and was a lot of fun. He was completely open to our photo ideas and "requirements", such as with the posed church photos. We took large group family photos during the reception, which could drive anyone nuts, but he calmly waited for everyone to get their act together. We also had a couple timing changes during the reception and he went with the flow to make sure he got the shots we wanted. My groom and I definitely recommend Kevin with Optic Light Photography.
I have to say that I am SO thrilled about our engagment pictures and our wedding photos! Kevin has a very outgoing personality and loves to get to know you personally so he can con...
nect with you and together create the best pictures. Hes someone who is on time,answers calls and emails very quick, you can trust will be there and will also have fun with all your guests (including doing the cupid shuffle! ;) ), and of course capture great shots! I would highly reccommend him to anyone looking for an excellent photographer for a great price! Definately will be using Optic Light as our future photography needs :) Thank you Kevin! Your work is AMAZING!
Kevin did an amazing job at our wedding! He was punctual and easy to work with. He had awesome picture ideas, too. He took his time to get the right pictures and we absolutely love...
d it.
Kevin is amazing. From the start---of just meeting him, to our engagement photos, to communication for our big day, to our wedding day---he has been outstanding. The photos were mo...
re than I could ever imagine, he replies to emails quickly, he is a blast to work with--and very professional. I would recommend Optic Light to anyone---and plan to use him in future photographer needs.
Kevin at Optic Light Photography is SO great. He answers emails and calls quickly. His prices are a really great range for those of us who were shocked by photography prices (he ra...
ised them a little since we had first booked him, but I still think he's a great deal).
He's really nice and great to work with...he and his second shooter Daniel made our entire wedding party comfortable, and we had a blast with him. Our engagement pictures turned out fabulous, and I can't wait to see how our wedding pictures look when we get them in a few weeks! I have the utmost confidence in him :)
Thank goodness for talent like Kevin's!
Kevin is so wonderful. He is very accommodating and easy to work with. He made our wedding day picture perfect. It was like having another friend at the wedding. And the pictures l...
ook great!!
I love Kevin and his photos. He makes it all very comfortable! We have only seen a sneak peak from our wedding so far, but love them. He was on time and professional, but fun the ...
whole day! He will be our go to guy for any photo needs in our future!!
Can't compliment enough on the wonderful job Kevin did. He was there early to take pics and stayed all night. Love Optic Light!
Kevin is an excellent photographer to work with! He listens to any ideas you have, but also has ideas of his own! Our engagement pictures turned out wonderful! I can't wait to s...
ee our wedding pictures! Kevin was there from 1130 in the morning until about 10 o clock because of us running behind! He made sure he got the first dances and all the important stuff! He even stayed a little later to get pictures of people dancing! We will be using him for family pictures for years to come!
I have not received my wedding photos yet so at this point am just reviewing based off of our engagement session. Kevin, the owner and main photographer, was very open to traveling...
wherever we wanted for our engagement photo shoot which was great. We chose a local park that has various trails, a golf course, etc. therefore allowing for a variety of photo ops.
Overall we are very pleased with how our photos turned out and have several of them hanging in our home. A nice perk with Kevin is that he releases the rights for the photos allowing you to print the images on your own and to be able to alter them. As someone who likes to play around with photo editing software I loved this feature because I was able to add some artistic touches to the work on my own as well.
As for the wedding photos, I'm hoping that the pictures are just as great as the engagement ones. The only downfall was that with all of the hustle and bustle of thanking guests, etc. that I don't feel like I took enough pictures with just my husband and I and part of me wishes someone would have thought to pull me aside and take note of that whether it was Kevin, my husband or a friend. I'm sure we will have plenty of great shots but thinking about it after the fact made me a little sad as the venue we got married at had a lot of potential for great photos. :)
