Louis was highly recommended by the Balcony Ballroom, our reception venue. We can't say enough good things about him! He was so flexible, quick on his feet, and thorough. On top of...

I can't say enough good things about our experience with Louis. He made our photography wedding experience truly top notch. We will be using him again for other important events in...
our lives.
Louis was recommended by my venue Southern Oaks and a mutual friend. We had a night wedding, which is difficult for most photographers, so it was important to get someone who could...
shoot at night.
Louis did an amazing job. He listened to what we wanted and did everything he could to keep our theme. we had a Halloween night wedding so theme was important. he's very flexible and gets pictures back fast. Though he's fast I can assure the quality is superb. Highly recommend Louis.

rofessionalism. I recommend Photography By Louis to everyone.
Louis was a joy to work with. He came recommended by our venue, House of Broel, and did not disappoint. Louis was very prompt and professional about communication and was excellent...
the day of the wedding with a set plan for everything. He even followed my wedding party to a rooftop bar before the ceremony for some great photographs. We got so many amazing shots. Even more impressive was how quickly Louis uploaded a selection for us to choose our photo book from and got us our USB stick. The book that came as part of our package blew is away with quality. A very fair price to boot! Have zero hesitation giving Louis 5 stars!
My wedding was on January 11, and I purposely waited to write this review so I could also review my wedding album. My wedding was a destination, so many of my decisions were made f...
rom internet research and phone calls. When I was looking for a photographer my husband and I came across Photography by Louis. What attracted us immediately was Louis’s ability to capture a typical wedding photo in a unique and special way. We spent over an hour browsing his photo albums and were consistently impressed with the shots he was able to capture. He was our first official decision that we made for our wedding, and I am so glad that we did. He was the only photographer on our wedding day and managed to capture multiple angles of the same moment. I could not have been more pleased with the photo choices we had for our wedding album. To narrow the choices down was difficult, but when we received the album, we were blown away. He is a true master at his craft, and I know if you select him for your wedding you will be blown away as well.
As a planner, I have worked with Louis for twenty years. His commitment to excellence is only exceeded by his consistent creativity. There I times that I have seen him shoot an "...
ordinary" picture only to see that picture later and find that he has once again turned the ordinary into the fantastic! Many venue owners hire Louis to shoot their daughter's weddings. That alone should tell a bride just how good he is!
Louis has been in the wedding business for decades. So he knows exactly what to shoot and when. His demeanor and energy is exactly what you need for a stressful day, and most Br...
ides don't think about that when booking a photographer. You will be with this person ALL DAY LONG....make sure it's someone you like. He will handle your family beautifully as well, as sometimes they might get nervous and distracted. But his work speaks for itself: the clarity, the details, the lighting....inside or out, it's exactly what you want and need. With all of his experience and the fact that he is always keeping up with the latest technology and trends, there was no one else I needed to call. Louis has your most important day covered. Thanks again for being with us for such a long, wonderful day. xoVanessa & Matt

affordable and so much fun to work with.
Awesome photographer! Everything I️ could dream of and more for my wedding day!!
Louis did a great job with our request of modern unposed shots. He is able to capture the moment while not interfering. My pictures tell a story of the night and bring back so many...
memories. The photos from my reception are some of the best wedding pics I've ever seen. The quality (clarity, color, angles, etc) of the photos is perfect. I wanted a photographer that was within my budget, but could still deliver on quality. Louis achieved this. Also, I received my photos in a timely manner.
The only thing I would have done different was to send details of the groom's and my immediate family and pictures I wanted to make sure he took. I did have to ask during my reception to get a few formal ones and very happy I did. I think when I said, "modern" he took it very literally. You can't go wrong with him as a photographer as the quality and type of photos he takes are fantastic. Just make sure to communicate with him ahead of time the pictures you can't live without.
Louis did a wonderful job with our wedding photos. He got all the important moments (getting ready, ceremony, first dance, etc...) with candid shots of my husband and I and our gu...
ests as well as all the posed photos with our bridal party and our families. We got exactly what we were looking for. There are so many great pictures that my husband and I are having a hard time deciding on which pictures we want in our album.
I loved, loved, loved working with Louis!! He did our engagement photos, my Bridals and our wedding and I couldn't have been happier with the final product! He was such a pleasure ...
to work with and he is amazing at what he does! U can definitely tell that he has done this for years, he has an eye for beautiful shots!
Louis did my wedding. I can honestly say there is not one single picture I do not like. He is amazing and his work is perfect! I am having a hard time putting together my weddin...
g album because there are just so many awesome pics. Would definitely recommend Louis.
I feel a bit torn about my feelings for Photography by Louis's services. His photo packages are great deals; I had not wanted to spend over $2000 dollars, and his pictures have ex...
cellent quality. I love our posed shots, but there were so few candids of my groom and I and us with our friends. I am very disappointed in this because in our meetings I specifically discussed with him how I love and wanted candid shots. The majority of my reception pictures are of other family members. I emailed him about this and he said "During the reception outside the official events is when I give the bride and groom a chance to visit with their guest and I focus more upon friends and family party picts and dancing." I love my family and friends, but I'm paying for pictures of OUR special day, and while I want some pictures of our family, I definitely wanted more pictures of us! We counted the reception pictures and outside of formal posed events (ie. cake, first dance, etc.) there were hardly 20 pictures we were in. I just feel like a lot of candid really special moments went undocumented. If you book him, make it VERY clear that you want him to be attentive to taking pictures of you and your groom at your own wedding!
Louis did my wedding photography and he was awesome!!! My wedding pictures were posted only a few days after my wedding, so quick! I still spend at least 10 minutes a day looking t...
hrough them and I cannot wait to pick out the photos for my album! He did a great job of quickly getting portraits and family pictures taken. The candids he got were simply amazing! I have already recommended him to a few of my engaged friends and would definitely recommend to anyone getting married!
Engagement pictures were delivered very quick but its been 3 weeks and no wedding pictures. Online preview shows some great shots but no wedding pictures in hand after three weeks...

Louis Dumser was the photographer for my wedding and did a superb job! He was prompt, took beautiful photos and my family and friends are all raving about my photos. Additionally, ...
I was able to view my photos within days of my wedding and Louis and his staff were very professional. I have already recommended him to others and can't wait to see the final product (my album).
