We booked Riverfront Photography for our wedding on 10/11/2025 and decided to add an engagement photo session. We're so glad we did! Bruce and Paige were fantastic to work with, making us feel completely at ease, and the poses came naturally. We spent an hour capturing stunning shots in some of the most beautiful locations in Cuyahoga Falls. It was important for us to include our dog in the photos, and Bruce was incredibly accommodating with that request. The turnaround time for the photos was impressively quick, and when we received them, we were absolutely amazed! Each photo is gorgeous, showcasing Bruce's exceptional artistic eye for backdrops and his brilliant use of light and contrast. The engagement session has been the highlight of our wedding planning. I highly recommend everyone consider the add-on for engagement photos; it’s not only a fun experience but also gives you options for save-the-dates and creates beautiful artwork for your home. We can't wait to have Riverfront Photography capture our wedding day!

Hi Ed, Your kind words about us is really appreciated. We love making our customer’s days and we can’t wait to have the opportunity to make you smile again! Thanks for choosing us!
We recently had Riverfront Photography for our wedding and we were blown away at how amazing they did. We already received all of our photos back just under a month later. From the beginning, Bruce was so professional and available to answer all questions. He made the entire process of hiring them easy and straightforward. A week or so prior to the wedding we were contacted by our photographer, Brandon, who spent time to figure out exactly what we wanted. We were pretty undecided on what we wanted specifically but Brandon helped to make sure we got pictures of everything. His assistant, Hailey, did an amazing job getting all the other photos and candid's of us and our guests. The quality and quantity of the photos is amazing and each one has helped us remember the amazing day. Besides all of this, the price was extremely competitive and offered full coverage with two photographers. I believe Brandon was with us nearly 15 hours! We really cannot say enough about how amazing, helpful, and friendly Riverfront has been through the whole process.

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review. It is greatly appreciated. It was truly our pleasure taking care of you on your special day. Wishing you all the best and a wonderful life. Bruce Johnson and Team Riverfront.
I cannot speak highly enough about Riverfront Photography! Bruce did an amazing job with our engagement photos and Brandon and Alexis absolutely killed it for our wedding/reception!
It was so nice to have two photographers to spend the whole day with us and catch moments we may have missed. And the turn around was much faster than we had anticipated which was very exciting!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

You're welcome!!! It was our pleasure. Thank you for such a heartfelt review. Wishing you nothing but the best!!! Bruce Johnson & the Riverfront Photography Team
Any questions?
We recently got married at Mapleside Farms and our photographers were Lindsey and Sergio. We could not have asked for anyone better. They were very professional and worked very well together. They paid attention to every detail and made sure everything flowed smoothly. I had a premade shot list of must have photos and they worked very well with my list and worked to take all the most important pictures for us. Lindsey not only was taking photos she helped with my dress and even putting my veil in. We highly recommend Lindsey and Sergio for any event.

If you want photography that looks like it came right out of a celebrity magazine you have to go with Riverfront Photography for your wedding day and any other occasion you may have! They have an amazing crew that is full of great people that truly go above and beyond to get you the best photos possible and make your day wonderful! I absolutely loved having Bruce, Hannah, and Carol shooting my wedding photos because what an eye they have! Bruce showed me a few of the photos he took and may I say I was absolutely blown away! This man keeps his word through and through 100% he says he’ll go above and beyond and he means it! Book with Riverfront my fellow Brides I’m telling you you will not regret it!!!
P.S. Bonus Points if you can get him to do it -he knows how to break dance and sing and yes we did get him on the dance floor and it was phenomenal!!! What a blast we had thanks to Riverfront Photography 😁😁😁

Thank you so much for such a sweet review! We had a blast photographing your big day and loved working with you both.
Wishing you all the best!
Bruce Johnson and the Riverfront Photography Team
Whatever photographers you met with, do not make a decision until you have contacted Riverfront Photography. Bruce and Hannah treated us like family. Their attention to detail is second to none. They brought the energy and enthusiasm for our day like it was their own. The personal touch was huge for my wife and I. Picking the right photographers is a huge part of your day and we picked the right people.
Bruce and his team were the perfect fit for our wedding. Their energy was perfect for the day, and they got some really amazing and special photos of our big day! They had ideas for how to pose us, which was great because trying to figure out a funny pose always stresses me out. We told them candid photos were the most important to us and man did they nail it! We are so happy we went with Riverfront Photography.

Thanks so much Kristi for sharing your experience. We had a blast photographing your big day and loved working with you both. Thank you again, Bruce Johnson and the Riverfront Photography Team
Bruce, Lindsey, and Alexis were all wonderful to work with. Bruce helped put our minds at ease when we met with him to discuss all the details. Lindsey was our lead photographer for our engagement session and wedding. She is patient and kind and such a joy to work with. Alexis worked with the groom and captured candid shots during the reception. All-star team!

Thank you so much for the fantastic review Amanda. I will be sure to share it with the entire team. It was truly our pleasure and we wish you both all the best.
Bruce Johnson
I can even find enough words to express how amazing Bruce and his team is. They are professional in every situation. Our limo broke down then my father in law got it running but the air did not work it was easily 120 degrees inside, the windows didn’t roll down and Bruce never complained once, still captured amazing photos and even rode in the limo a second time knowing how hot it would be. 5 stars is not enough for these amazing people, it is not just a job or paycheck to them. Bruce and his team genuinely care. I can’t say enough good things about them!!!!!!
Response from the Vendor on 07/19/2022
Hello Amanda,
Thank you for taking the time to write this wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear you had such a great experience working with our team. We had an amazing time photographing your big day—even the heat wasn't going to stop us ...
from capturing it!😁
Wishing you all the best,
Bruce Johnson & the Riverfront Photography Team
Absolutely so happy that we decided to hire Riverfront Photography for our wedding day!! At first I was excited to book with them because they offered 2 photographers, no time limits, and were very affordable! But after speaking with Bruce and learning about his staff I knew for sure it was the right decision! Lindsey and Sergio were our photographers for they day! They captured every beautiful moment and so much more!! Lindsey really took the time to listen to what was important for her to capture on the wedding day! She even helped me decide on photo locations! I cannot say enough good things about this company! Highly recommend!

We love to hear this! We are so happy our team took such good care of you. Thank you for the amazing review and for allowing us to be a part of your special day!
Couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos! Bruce & Sergio were both wonderful. They were extremely professional, personable, and easy to work with. They captured the entire day perfectly and am so happy with how the photos turned out. I highly reccomend!

Thank you Katie for the great review! We are so happy that you love your photos. Wishing you all the best!
Overall, we were satisfied with our experience and our photos from Riverfront, but we did have a little disappointment with the final results. Our main photographer missed our first kiss, which was really disappointing (he got a picture of right before and right after the kiss but missed the actual kiss). He was also curt with my bridesmaid when she questioned why we were taking a photo my husband and I didn’t want. We were disappointed that the photographers didn’t suggest more poses or more locations around the venue to take photos (but in their defense, I forgot to provide a shot list because I got caught up in other last minute aspects of wedding planning). Most of the photos were taken with the same backdrop, so there isn’t a lot of variety. But in the end, the quality of the pictures was great, and we like most of the pictures we have.
Response from the Vendor on 12/24/2021
Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately no matter how much we try to prevent technical issues, sometimes they are impossible to avoid. Fortunately, the other photographer did get a picture of your first kiss. That is why we have two photogra...
phers with every wedding package, to ensure every special moment is captured. We fully understand that wedding planning is time consuming and there’s not always time to provide a specific shot list. We do our very best to do a variety of poses in the timeframe we have to give you as many photos as possible. We are happy to hear that you are pleased with the quality and the photos you received. Wishing you all the best.
Thank you again,
Bruce Johnson and the Riverfront Photography Team
My husband and I were looking for people to do our pictures for our wedding last month. Then there was photography store where I grew up at they recommended riverfront photography. My husband and I couldn't be more happier having Bruce and Lindsey to do our photos for our wedding, they were on time at two different locations, they were friendly, honest, trustful, and the pricing was right in the price range where we wanted. I totally recommended them for wedding photos. I can't wait to see my wedding photos.

Hi Anka,
Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear you were pleased with our work.

Bruce Johnson & the Riverfront Photography Team
I haven’t even seen the pictures yet, but I need to rave on Riverfront Photography. Bruce said that he was there to take great photos, but he was also committed to making it a special day, and he and Caroline came through big time. Caroline hung with the girls before the wedding. Not only did she get many special shots, but she helped us in so many different ways! Bruce and Caroline were a joy to work with.

It was a pleasure working with Riverfront Photography. Our main photographer was Bruce. Bruce and his team went above and beyond on our wedding day! They are very professional and you can tell they truly have a passion for what they do. Bruce was very responsive and answered all our questions timely. We are excited to see all the photos! Judging from the engagement photos we have no doubt that the wedding photos will be amazing!

Thank you Veronica for the great review! We loved being a part of your special day. Wishing you nothing but the best!
Riverfront Photography was absolutely amazing to work with. I cannot recommend them enough. We had Bruce and Caroline as our photographers for our big day and they were both amazing. Both super professional and knew what poses to put us in. Bruce was great when doing family formals he knew exactly what poses to do & made sure things went quickly. Bruce came on the bus with us and got many great memories captured. The best part is the no time limit! We had a 4 hour gap between ceremony and reception so photographers with a time limit were hard for us to work with. Caroline stayed up until the very last song and captured some amazing memories of the night. We received our pictures within 4 weeks of the wedding and had over 2,000 pictures to chose from. They really captured EVERYTHING! All of them are absolutely beautiful it's hard to pick a favorite. You cannot go wrong with hiring Riverfront Photography for your wedding. Thank you so much Bruce & Caroline!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. Wishing you both all the best!
Bruce was great to speak with. Definitely made me feel confident in their abilities!
Brandon & Grace were our photographers for the big day!! And they were incredible! They were troopers for our all day event!! We had fun with them and hope they loved it just as much. Brandon captured specific picture ideas that I had requested while taking some other unique shots. And the pictures are great! They were able to capture great moments throughout the wedding as well as the traditional moments!
Definitely grateful for them at the wedding. Even the guests were commenting how impressed they were with the photographers. We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

All the best,
Bruce Johnson & the Riverfront Photography Team
Bruce and his team did an amazing job! My, now, husband and I are so happy we found them! Not only do they take AMAZING pictures but everyone has such a great personality. Our wedding day wasn’t what we had originally planned due to COVID, but Bruce and his team were patient with us and made sure everything went perfect. Riverfront photography was an amazing find and I’m so thankful that they were able to tell the story of our wedding day through pictures.

Hello Taylor!
Wow, thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so happy you love your pictures so much. Thank you for inviting us to celebrate your big day, we had a blast!
All the best,
Bruce & the Riverfront Photography Team
So when I met the owner, I was sold! His enthusiasm and energetic personality was so infectious. He made us feel as though we were in good hands. I was able to see a portfolio and look through all sample photos and choose from 3 head photographers. I chose a woman who's pictures SEEMED great and they had a rustic vibe to them. They said make an pinterest page and post photos you like so we can see what you'd like us to take. I didn't get a list, they didn't ask if I wanted anything specific or particular before-hand. Then my husband was in a motorcycle accident and he was in a wheelchair for our wedding. This seemed to intimate the photographers (you get 2 on your big day!) The was no creativity, no moving us around, no close ups, I don't have a single photo with my mother, father, brother (who gave me away-besides even we were walking down the isle) with my flower girl, my sister who flew in from TX and same with my husband and his family. They didn't do photos that I wanted and that I tagged on my page. I forgot to mention it, but do you blame me??? I have enough to think about that day, that's their job! We got over 2000 photos and we were so unhappy wth the outcome. You can't redo that day, you can't go back. I would steer clear of this place.
Response from the Vendor on 10/07/2020
Hi Megan,
Like I mentioned when we first discussed you were displeased with our photographer's work last year, we take all feedback very seriously and know there is no way to go back and recreate your wedding day. Even before your wedding, whe...
n you informed us about your husband's motorcycle accident, we offered to photograph you, your family and friends again once he was out of his wheelchair at no charge. Last year, when you informed us that you were pleased with one of the photographer's pictures but unhappy with the other, we did everything in our power to make this situation right. Our photographers are trained to capture every moment with every person at your wedding, which is why every package includes two photographers - so we don't miss anything. I did go back through your wedding day pictures and there are photos with your mother, father, brother, sister, etc. However, if you feel as though you are missing photos with certain people, feel free to email me and I'd be happy to re-send them.
Thank you,
Bruce Johnson and the Riverfront Photography team
Booking Riverfront Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Bruce was very attentive and great to work with during the planning phase and our engagement photos, and Lindsey completely exceeded all of our expectations as our lead shooter for our wedding. She was extremely organized and decisive, and truly took control of the day, which really helped us be able to enjoy every second of it. We would also like to give a shoutout to Brandon, Caroline and Hannah for capturing all of the small details that made our day so special! 11/10 would recommend to anyone looking to get the most for your money with great quality!
Bruce and his team are incredible. He was a blast to work with, a consummate professional and great with the guests! They captured so many amazing moments. This business is worth every penny and more that you could spend on it. Not only were the pictures incredible, they had a fast turn around and had the pictures back within four weeks!
My only regret is that I can’t get married all over again to have more incredible pictures! Don’t miss your chance to book Bruce and the team!
Response from the Vendor on 04/15/2020
Thanks for the great review, Megan! We had a blast celebrating your big day with you.
Bruce and his team are absolutely AMAZING!!! We worked with Karissa and Nick the day of and they were so fun and captured everything I had asked for. Our photos are breathtaking. Thank you, Riverfront Photography for everything! 😍
Bruce and Aeron did an absolutely AMAZING job with our wedding photos!! Not only were they professional and super easy and fun to work with, but the photos came out stunning and I couldn't have made a better choice by picking Riverfront Photography. The quality of their work on top of the unbeatable price should make this company your #1 go-to for wedding photos. THANK YOU for all you did for Sean and I!!
Couldn't be happier! Our priorities for a wedding photographer were 2 shooters, copyright to the photos, and all day coverage. Upon meeting with another photographer I didn't feel comfortable with their team. Within 2 minutes of meeting Bruce we knew he was exactly what we needed for our big day! It was a breath of fresh air to have so much trust in a vendor and know we didn't need to worry about a thing because they would do an amazing job. We had both Bruce and Lindsey, they were timely, professional, kind, attentive to anything we needed, and we are in love with the almost 3,000 photos we ended up with! From scaling the rocks to capture the perfect photo, to organizing the drunk guests for the sparkler send off, Riverfront Photography was one of the best decisions we made in the entire wedding planning process. Couldn't recommend them more!
I had hired a photographer that kept rescheduling our engagement photo shoot so we finally decided to find someone else.
That’s where we came across Riverfront Photography. Bruce took the time to talk to me at 7p at night to answer any of my questions. I honestly didn’t expect to hear a response till the next day. Bruce was friendly, outgoing, and took his time explaining everything to me.
The morning of the wedding, Karissa arrived on time at the hotel and captured pictures of every moment. Every moment of my special day was captured. Karissa and Nick not only was our photographers they became our friends on our special day. They were on our limo bus and we laughed with them Along with all our friends. My park wedding pictures are breath taking.
I really felt like I hit it out of the park with Riverfront Photography. Nick, thank you for capturing the perfect photo of Desi my cat. That picture is so close to my heart. Karissa, thank you for capturing such amazing photos at the park. I literally can’t decide which ones to put in frames.
If you looking for an good photographer go with cheapest deal you can find. If your looking for an amazing photographer than look no further than Riverfront Photography.
What an absolute dream! We interviewed four different photographers back in December 2017 for our July 2019 wedding, and Bruce sold us within the first five minutes of meeting with him. Picking Bruce and Riverfront Photography was an absolutely phenomenal decision, and our photos came out absolutely flawless!
Bruce was attentive, responsive, and very caring throughout the entire planning process. He ended up shooting our engagement photos which we thought would be an awkward experience but Bruce made us entirely comfortable and it was a breeze. They came out perfect and we couldn't have expected anything else.
In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Bruce was very responsive and professional even though I'm sure he was very busy. On the wedding day itself, he and his assistant Lindsey were not only professional, prompt, and courteous, but they also kept things moving. In the pre-wedding photos/formals, I was absolutely clueless as to what poses and locations would work best and Bruce was 100% on top of that. He had some impromptu ideas that ended up turning out absolutely spectacular.
He and Lindsey both rode the limo bus between the ceremony and the reception, and even took a video on one of our bridesmaid's phones of the group of us enjoying ourselves. Lindsey even ended up in some group shots that we will be able to laugh about forever.
During the reception, Bruce and Lindsey were catching the best day of our lives; we never even noticed they were there, and the photos turned out beautiful. They truly captured the best moments with absolute perfection, and we are forever grateful for the experience, and the memories created.
Thank you to Bruce, Lindsey, and the entire Riverfront team for your professionalism, attention to detail, and utmost customer service throughout the entire wedding. You are truly perfect.
If you are reading this review and you're considering choosing another vendor for your wedding, you are making the wrong decision by not booking Riverfront Photography.
Bruce and his team came recommended by a friend. Right off the bat I loved his flexibility to work with my budget and needs. He was always available via email or TEXT which was convenient. I spoke to Bruce the week of my wedding and he made the process very easy. Bruce and his team exceeded my expectations the day of my wedding. We had 4 photographers throughout the day. Every time I turned around to look for a photographer to capture a picture they were right there but were never an annoyance. I did not even notice them 95% of the time. The best part about is there were no time limits. I did not have to worry about them leaving and missing anything. Riverfront Photography is afforordable, fun, professional and an AMAZING value.
I would recommend Riverfront to every bride. You would be crazy not to book them.
We had a great time with Bruce and Michael!! They went above and beyond and got the best shots!!! Our pictures came back amazing, we love them!! They were with us all day (with no location limit wow), we have the rights to all our photos, and best of all two photographers!! We would highly recommend them!!
So glad that I found this company! Bruce and aeron were an amazing team all day!! I couldn’t have asked for better team of Photographers they took the time to get photos that we wanted. They worked with us on bringing our pups along for photos as well, which meant a lot to us and they turned out great!! If you have Pinterest it’s best to get a wedding page set up Bruce and his team look it over and pretty much ensure they get the photos you have pinned! They both spent they day not only taking amazing photos but helped in anyway possible to make our day run so smooth and perfect! We wecieved a ton of photos back and just under a month!! I highly recommend them!!!
I highly recommend Riverfront Photography. Both Bruce and his son were amazing photographers and played a huge part in making our wedding day so special. Bruce was so willing to accommodate my style, I really appreciated how he asked me to create a Pinterest board that he studied days before the wedding. He was so willing to re-create the images I loved on Pinterest. Our photos turned out better than I had hoped. We received them less than a month after our wedding which was great! Bruce and his team stayed well into the night capturing a ton of our family and friends dancing and having a great time - something that was important to us.
Bruce and Michael were both AWESOME! I wanted someone on my wedding day that was socialable and easy to work with. Both of my photographers were nice, funny, and took fantastic pictures! What more could you ask for? I highly recommend Riverfront Photography to anyone! They made my day even more special.
Bruce and Michael were both amazing! They both are extremely easy going and easy to talk to, while still remaining professional. We received our pictures in the exact time frame they said it would take, which I found to be a very quick turn around! Especially in the midst of wedding season! They stayed with us from the very beginning until the very end of our wedding. They captured every little detail and every emotion through the day so perfectly. I cannot thank them enough! We love our pictures and we can’t stop looking through them. Highly recommended to anybody :)
I cannot recommend Riverfront Photography enough!!! We had our wedding in January and Bruce and Erin stayed with us all day to give us the most beautiful pictures! The weather ended up being terrible but they stayed positive all day and we still ended up with the most wonderful pictures! I cannot stress enough how much you get for your money too with this company, you get two photographers with no time limits and no location limits, you cannot beat that. Again, my husband and I cannot recommend Riverfront Photography enough!!
We had River Front Photography at our wedding in Cleveland this past January and they were PERFECTION! Our photographers were Karissa and Michael and the two of them were so professional and fun, and just great to hangout with all day. And truly ALL DAY! They showed up in the morning with us and stayed until the very end. The pictures they captured are beautiful memories I think I’ve looked at everyday since I got them, which we was less than a month after the wedding! My husband and I both can not recommend them enough!
Book them!!!!!! Bruce and his team are truly professional, fun, hard-working, and timely in getting your photos back to you. We had Bruce and Alyssa shoot our August wedding and we have nothing but great things to say about them and their company. Not only did we have so much fun with them throughout the entire day but Bruce really helped keep things organized for us so we could get all of the shots at the locations we wanted. I really didn't understand just how important "no time limits" would be until our wedding day came and went. We ended up pushing the end time of our reception back and Bruce and Alyssa were excited to stay there with us the whole way through capturing priceless moments! No joke they were with us from about 7:00am until midnight. Everyone says it, but your big day really does fly by so fast and I am beyond thankful that we can relive it through our beautiful photos.
My husband and I are extremely happy we booked Riverfront Photography for our wedding. Bruce was the lead photographer and Alyssa was our second photographer. Both of them were very patient and always asked us throughout the night what we wanted pictures of. Bruce was always around and I could just ask him anytime to snap a picture right then and there. He made sure to take all the pictures my husband and I wanted throughout the night. We loved how there were 2 photographers that were taking pictures the entire day and throughout the night. The price was reasonable and we would highly recommend Riverfront Photography!
Our wedding was on 7/7/17 and let me tell you, it was perfect! Karissa and Tom were absolutely amazing. We could not have asked for anyone else to shoot our perfect day. Karissa took charge in a friendly way, keeping everyone calm, and getting everything we wanted. She is so sweet and would do anything we asked! I would HIGHLY recommend Riverfront!!
My wedding was 5/27/17...could not have asked for a more wonderful experience from this team! Bruce was incredibly organize and responsive! We received our photos (over 1,200!!) within a month! Karissa shot our day, and was with us from start to finish! She brought such a calming presence and did a fantastic job with our many large family group shots! The pictures are gorgeous! Would highly recommend!
My wedding was February 18, 2017 and we couldn't have asked for a better experience and photos from Bruce and Alyssa. I have been a bridesmaid in weddings he has shot in past years and knew there would be no searching for a photographer when it was time to plan my own wedding. They made Rich and I's day even more special- very laid back, professional and full of fun and humor. Upon viewing our plethora of pictures, we have so many favorites. Riverfront Photography makes you feel comfortable and are helpful the day of the wedding. My husband and I will always recommend them without hesitation. Thank you for the lifetime memories!
Riverfront is the best photo company in the area! Our package included 2 photographers, unlimited photos, and unlimited time! Bruce and Michael were our photographers for the day and they were nothing short of amazing! They were so much fun and they even trudged through the snow to achieve some amazing outdoor pictures! They offer an engagement shoot with an unlimited number of photos when booking with them and that in and of itself was much more than any other photographer we looked at. When hiring Riverfront Photography you receive a great price, a great experience and an even better end result!
Riverfront Photography is the best wedding photography deal in the area. There are two photographers are with you for the entire day from getting hair done till after the final song is played. My head photographer was Aeron and she did an amazing job! They are great at getting all the details of the wedding.
We had a fairytale- themed/Greek Orthodox wedding. Each table at the reception had a custom made fairytale centerpiece (26 tables) and the church ceremony is about an hour long which includes custom made crowns (stephanas) and decorated candles. My husband is a designer that put extra work into creating the programs for the wedding and we have beautiful photos featuring all of it.
They captured the pure magic of the day! They made a point of getting extra photos with my grandma who is in poor health and captured very touching moments that even I wasn't aware that they were shooting at the time (Ex. seeing my dad for the first time that day, joking with my bridesmaids, putting on my earrings in the mirror, my grandmother seeing my bouquet for the first time). These details are easily missed but they were captured beautifully like a time capsule. And of course they captured the all the big moments as well (Ex.my grandmothers dropping petals as my flower "golden" girls, the look on my husband's face when he saw me walk up the aisle, my dad's face as he gave me away, the bubble send off outside of the church, the first dances and cutting of the cake). They were able to get close-up shots of our rings with the bouquet while we were able to just enjoy the party. If we wanted specific photos all we had to do was ask and they'd get it for us. Same applied to our guests if they wanted photos with their dates or family members. They were considerate and respectful to my priest, the importance of the ceremony and the different family dynamics.
Our photos were due back to us four weeks after the wedding but I was able to contact Aeron during our honeymoon to get an advance photo to include in our church's 50th anniversary book since my wedding ended up being the event of the year for many of the attending church members. Now the day will be a part of the church's archives and a part of the 50th anniversary commemoration.
I can't think of another photographer who would go out the way to do that for us. Bruce E. Johnson runs a great company and has an excellent staff!! There was no limit on the amounts of photos, time or locations. We received all the photos that were taken that day. Thank you Riverfront being part of our special day!!!!
Ladies, as a former bride.. I know how much photographers run. Let me just tell you.. Riverfront Photography is the best deal out there!
My husband and I purchased a package that included 2 photographers; there was no time limit, no photo limit and all of the photos taken that day were handed over, copyrights released! We ended up with 2500 photos from the day and we could not have been more happy!! They were everything I had hoped for and more.
Bruce, the owner, and Lorissa, the second photographer, were absolutely amazing to work with! They showed up at our hotel around noon, while us girls were getting ready (hair and makeup) and they captured some wonderful shots! I didn't have to ask them to do a single thing.. they just did it all! Photos of my dress, the rings, my shoes and the bouquets (etc.)! It was so wonderful to not have to worry about anything with them. It also allowed me to just enjoy the day! They eventually split up and took some shots of the guys and the girls, separately, before the ceremony. After the ceremony we went to 2 different locations for photos before returning to the venue for the reception. I was so concerned that we didn't have enough time to get all of the shots I wanted.. but when the photos came back I was so relieved! Everything was incredible. They were both there until 11pm!
That's 11 hours of photos!! You will not find a more wonderful photographer to work with nor a more amazing deal than what I'm talking about.
It took less than 4 weeks to get the 2500 photos back.. which I have to admit I was surprised. I've heard horror stories about photographers taking 8-10 weeks to return pictures. I'm so thankful I didn't have to wait that long!
Just loved Cassie and Larissa, from Riverfront Photography
they were our photographers for the entire day. They came about 12:30 and left about midnight. When they said no time limit in their advertising they meant it.
We of course don't have pictures back yet (Sept. 5th wedding, 3-4 week turnaround)
but if they are anything like the photographers they are going to be fantastic!
The ladies were in control and helped us to get the right pictures taken on that special day.
Thanks Ladies!
Bruce at Riverfront was so fun to work with for our wedding! He was helpful the whole day and offered to help with anything in anyway that he could! His staff was wonderful as well, and I would definitely work with him again. I would recommend him to anyone who wants quality pictures for an affordable price!
We had two photographers who arrived early afternoon to the hair salon and stayed with us until our reception ended at 11pm We have pictures of every detail of our wedding and they are beautiful. We received picture disc 3 weeks after the wedding and will get 100 pictures touched up and made into a photo album. We are able to use the disc to make pictures for family members and friends. We are very pleased and would recommend them to anyone! We may get our son's senior pictures there soon...
Bruce is an amazing and wonderful photographer!
Bruce was an absolute blast to work with!! He made taking the pictures for the wedding fun and it flew by! We received our pictures back and they turned out amazing! We would definitely recommend Bruce, and we will be back again!
We met Bruce Johnson (owner of Riverfront Photography) at the IX Center Bridal Show in Janurary 2012! He is so full of energy, and excitment, I knew right then he had to be our photographer. We set up our appointment and we were there for 2 hours! He is a great guy and has so much talent. A couple days before the wedding he called to go over final details, and before we even got into it, he asked how I was and what he could do to help out! He was our rock on our wedding day. Whatever we needed, photography related or not, he was there for us. He has done over 700 weddings, hes great! When we got back from our honeymoon, I had a voicemail from Bruce letting us know our pictures were done! Literally 1 week after our wedding we were able to view our pictures...you don't get that with anyone else!
DO NOT PASS HIM UP!!!!!!
Bruce is amazing and I couldn't be happier with our wedding pictures!
Bruce was amazing, he made everyone feel at home, while remaining completely professional! I have recommended him highly to friends, and they have, and are using him for their weddings. Our pictures turned out great, and he gave us the CD and rights to all of them. He also told us how to get them printed for cheaper, and for better quality. A truly great guy, and amazing photographer!
I got a great deal on my package because it was a friday wedding and there was a big sale the weekend I booked. I couldn't have afforded them otherwise. Our photographer was the owner, Bruce. He has great equipment and took great pictures. He was always willing to meet us and always had time for my questions. He took great pictures for both the engagement pictures and wedding pictures and we got a CD of pitcures for both with all the rights. Each photographer only does one wedding per day and you get them all day no 6 or 8 hour limit. Our pictures were ready right away on the CD, but I'm still waiting on our album because it takes more time to make.
