Congratulations on the engagement! We are photographers (not writers) so we'll try and keep this short and sweet!
Think of us as documentarians of your wedding day. Sure, we know how to pose you and offer direction when you need, but our favorite shots always come from those little moments that no one could plan. We like to say that what we do has less to do with using a camera and more to do with being attentive to people and knowing when to capture all those feelings, expressions, and little moments in time that will one day bring you a smile to look back upon.
Planning any size wedding is work, and a heck of a lot to think about. In addition to capturing the essence of your day we want to take any worries you might have about getting great photos out of your head. Let us know a bit about yourselves and what gets you excited, and we can figure out ways to make the your photos that much more meaningful, beautiful, and stress free.
Please check out www.nextbestmen.com to see high res shots of our work. Give us a call or email if you like what you see and we'll get the ball rolling on creating photos you'll cherish forever.
Thanks for stopping in and congratulations again!

Wyatt and Evan were literally the most fun photographers we have ever experienced! Wyatt even trudged through some Florida terrain to get some shots for our bridal party as well! They were so helpful from our first phone session with Wyatt all the way leading up to helping us pose and have some fun on our big day! We got our sneak peak within 5 days and are looking forward to the rest of the pictures! If you are someone who values photos and capturing memories in an artistic way- these are the photographers for you! Thank you so much, guys!!

We found Next Best Men because they had done the photography for two of our friends' weddings. So we called them and within the first 30 seconds we knew these were the guys for us. Their easygoing, lighthearted, yet professional vibe made us feel great.
Not only were their pictures INCREDIBLE, they were very reasonably priced, and they felt like just another one of our wedding guests.
Don't even think about it, just book them!

Wyatt shot our wedding this past August, and we couldn’t be happier with our photos!
He made us feel super comfortable, and knew how to make us laugh to get those candid smiles.
We had compliments on our photographer all night long. Wyatt had two cameras going, at the same time all night. He’s truly talented.
Overall, Wyatt was very professional, has a creative eye, and fun personality. My husband and I love every single picture we got back.
Thank you Wyatt, for the beautiful memories to look back on & cherish. We would choose you again in a heartbeat!

Wyatt was an amazing photographer and our wedding pictures are a reflection of that. He exceeded all of my expectations and has the best eye. If I could give him more then five stars I would. He was so nice, funny, and super energetic. We loved having him as our photographer and anytime I need someone he is definitely the person I'm calling. I can't say enough about how amazing he was 10/10 person and photographer. Here are just a couple of our favorite photos feom our day and I hope you choose him to be apart of your big day too!

Wyatt from The Next Best Men was so professional, knowledgeable and kind. He captured so many happy moments. He brought a level of compassion and patience to our session that made everyone more comfortable and confident. He even went out of his way to make sure the train of the dress looked perfect. The Next Best Men photography was absolutely the right choice. Don't hesitate to book The Next Best Men Wedding Photography.

He went above and beyond, made sure to catch every moment, brought out the best in us for photos, impressed all of our guests, and truly captured us on one of the most important days of our lives!! I can’t believe we were so lucky to have Wyatt photograph our wedding. If you’re looking for documentary style photography, BOOK NEXT BEST MEN!!!!! 😍

Wyatt is the best! If you’re in the endless sea of photographers and you just can’t decide, let me help you and say BOOK THEM!! The price was better than even small town photographers were asking and he did better than any wedding photographer I’d ever seen. I never had to wonder where he was at because he was everywhere. Captured every single moment without fail and was an absolute JOY to work with. I have so many beautiful photos that truly capture the moment of this once in a lifetime experience. I cannot believe how lucky I got to find Nextbestmen photography but I am beyond grateful that I did. I’m telling you, he was so much fun, so easy to take pictures with (and I am so awkward and bad at photos). I loved that in all of the albums online I could see who the people were and I could feel the moment. He did that for us and you should let this awesome family do that for you. The photos actually ended up being one of, if not our favorite part of the entire day.

Please do yourself a favor and Hire the Next Best Man now!
From the very first e-mail, Wyatt was nothing but delightful, answered all our questions, and was very responsive.
On the day of the wedding, He and Rikki arrived early and introduced themselves and were extremely professional throughout the entire event. May I just say, that my husband who HATES taking photos and even though he was prepared to brave the storm that day, did not complain a single time during the photo session. Wyatt and Rikki made us feel so at ease, that posing was actually fun.
A week after the wedding, we even got some photos as a preview!
We thank you SO much for such a wonderful experience, you captured our special day beautifully.
Much love,
Elizabeth, Sergio, Axel & Bailey <3

Hiring Next Best Men for our wedding was the best money we’ve ever spent. Of all our vendors (many of which were phenomenal) our photographer was the absolute best. Not only was booking with them easy and professional - my wedding day pictures are absolutely STUNNING. Wyatt captured pictures of every single person, caught every sneaky tear in the room, the best angles of my dress, every detail …. I have no words for how great my pictures came out. His energy the entire wedding was great and our guests noticed and commented how great he was the entire time. He helped us with diff poses, knew all the tricks and made us feel comfortable and happy to be in front of the camera. All around, amazing value and service. I will absolutely work with them again for future photography needs. Thank you Wyatt and NBM!

My husband and I were lucky enough to have Wyatt from Next Best Men as our wedding photographer, and we can’t express how phenomenal he was. He was such a joy to work with from start to finish. He’s so fun to be around and truly incredible at what he does. Not only do we have some GORGEOUS portraits from the day, but he also captured some of the most candid, hilarious, genuine, and heartfelt moments that we’ll cherish forever. We spent at least three hours looking through the photos the first night he sent them and it was like getting a whole extra event out of the wedding for just the two of us to laugh, cry, and reminisce together. We're absolutely obsessed with them. If you want some really authentic and absolutely breathtaking pictures of your event, hire these guys!! You won’t be sorry. :)

2346. That’s how many photos Wyatt sent us. And we are absolutely obsessed with all of them. I displayed them all in a slide show and mirrored it on my TV. My wife and I sat there for 3 hours and watched it, completely captivated, like a movie. Thank you so so so much, Wyatt, for beautifully capturing all the tears, laughs, hugs, and awkward dance moves. And for being such a fun, easy-going presence all while helping us stick to our timeline. We don’t know how you did it, but we’re so grateful!

My experience was so amazing I don't even know where to start. Not only did Wyatt get to the reception early to scope out good spots, he was so sweet and kind. He not only caught all the photos I had requested with my specific family members, he got so many beautiful candids of myself, my husband, my party, and my guests. I couldn't recommend them highly enough. I'm so beyond happy to have gone with Wyatt. Here's to the married life (:

I cannot say enough great things about Next Best Men. We used them for both our engagement and wedding photos, and we are obsessed with them. We felt so comfortable at both sessions and they literally caught EVERYTHING! We were on the fence of getting a videographer and ended up not getting one and I have no regrets because everything and more was caught in the photos. I will cherish them forever and will definitely use Next Best Men for any other time in my life I need a photographer!

We used them for both our engagement and wedding photos taken at Celery Fields in Sarasota and the Powel Crosley Estate also in Sarasota. We are so grateful for the experience we had using them and would highly recommend them to any couple!

The Next Best Men did our engagement and wedding photography. Not only did our photos turn out ABSOLUTELY AMAZING but we’re left with a great memory of just having fun doing it! My husband and I were camera shy when we first started but within the first 5 minutes of working with Wyatt we felt like professionals with all the right poses and smiles! Everyone who saw our pictures said they were so beautiful! We cannot wait to use The Next Best Men again!

As a photographer myself, my biggest desire for my wedding was to have a photographer who would capture all the little candid moments beautifully. I could not be happier with Wyatt's work with Next Best Men. He was so friendly, attentive, and most importantly, SKILLED. I'm obsessed with the gallery he delivered (which was a huge number of photos as well as beautiful!)
I would recommend him to anyone, anytime. You won't be disappointed!

Wyatt, and his lovely wife Rikki, were the photographers for our wedding. They were professional and so fun to work with! They were extremely knowledgeable on how to stage photos using surrounding scenery to get the best shot, and really have an eye for capturing amazing moments. Of the 1500 photos that they took for our wedding, there was not a single shot that we didn't download and share with our families! Every photo they took is absolutely stunning.

We are so thrilled with our decision to use Next Best Men! They're so flexible, professional, and amazing hype men. We received non-stop compliments from our guests and our venue about how great our photographers were. We used them for our engagement photos as well and we couldn't keep the smiles off of our faces during the entire session with how funny these two were. They make you feel like an old friend so you feel super comfortable working with them. And of course, their photos are absolutely stunning! I can't recommend these two enough!!!

Absolutely amazing. With all the chaos of the wedding day and various vendors being late and not communicating, it is hard to find a moment without stress. Evan was not only stress free, he actively made the wedding more fun and less chaotic.
He knew exactly what to do with the photos and was always there to capture the best moments. His attitude was fantastic, upbeat, and refreshing. He really is The Next Best Man.

How can I thank you enough!?! The pictures are everything I hoped and dreamed x10000! It was a pleasure sharing our special day with you. We will remember the amazing job you did for the rest of our lives! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! I love them entirely!
On a professional note, Evan went above and beyond for my family and I. He was very patient and helped our chaos become more organized by directing us and accommodating everyone’s requests. I have had an abundance of people praise him regarding his awesome attitude and thoughtfulness. Also, the many pictures he captured were nothing short of perfect. I recommend 100%

Wyatt and Evan were fantastic!! They were very helpful, we had several calls and emails before the big day. The biggest thing was they brought the best energy! We were not fans of portrait pictures and really wanted candid pictures. They listened and we got everything we wanted! Big shout out to their incredible “being in the background” mode and jumping over chairs to get the perfect picture!! Highly highly recommend!!!

5 stars isn't even enough! Wyatt and Evan are such amazing photographers, and even more awesome individuals. Not once were we anxious about the quality of the photos, and they still managed to shock us with awe. We got back our photos early a Friday morning and were both late to work because we couldn’t stop laughing, smiling, and tearing up at the memories that were captured on our special day. Each photo tells a story, and they are so beautiful, magical, and it makes us feel as if our love story is just a little special as well. We are so grateful to you boys! Thank you!!!!!!

Evan and Wyatt captured every single special moment of our wedding in such detail; looking through the photos was almost like watching a video and getting to relive our wedding day all over again. They are true documentary style photographers that get all the raw emotion and the true beauty of your special day. Also, they are damn good people and super fun to work with! Having Evan and Wyatt at your wedding will feel like having a couple of good friends around who just happen to be immensely talented photographers. My husband and I normally hate having our pictures taken, but Evan and Wyatt make it such a joy.

Next Best Men helped make sure that we felt comfortable and that we got playful shots that really felt like us.

Wyatt and Evan were very accommodating during this COVID year! We had booked them in March for May 2020 wedding in Florida (we live out of state). Then the world shuts down and we can’t get married in May. We worked with them via email to find a new date that would work for all of us. Living out of state made communication or that person-to-person contact hard, but one of them would always respond within a day of my email. We met with Wyatt in July at the location he had so many great ideas and spots to make our pictures the best on the beach. We got married during sunset and we couldn’t be happier with the results. We can’t wait to get some shots hanging on the wall. Thanks guys for being flexible and shooting our “glorified” family shoot. I highly recommend their services.

Wyatt and Evan were the best choice we could have made for photographers. Our photos were gorgeous and high quality, and (most importantly, speaking as the bride) I have never felt more beautiful!
We were both NOT excited about getting engagement or wedding photos because we do not like getting our photos taken. Wyatt and Evan completely put us at ease and within the first few clicks, we were having a good time. Their fun and energetic personalities made the process enjoyable and stress free, and then the photos took our breath away. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I SERIOUSLY have no words when it came to Next Best Men photographing our wedding. I am totally speechless- the photos are beyond amazing and even better than I could’ve hoped for! The coloring is EXACTLY my taste but the CONTENT is even better! Evan and Wyatt both captured the total mood of the weekend and each photo is overflowing with happiness and love. THANK YOU BOTH SO SO SO SO MUCH I cannot explain how much they mean to me! Not only were the photos beyond incredible- the guys are INCREDIBLE. From the very first phone call when booking them to the last second of the wedding, they were so amazing to work with and really felt like friends. Always prompt, professional, friendly, and outgoing, you seriously will have no regrets in hiring this dream team for your wedding. They were the best decision made of the whole wedding!!!!!! I’ll never stop looking at the photos and I would use Evan and Wyatt over and over again forever!

If I could give them even more stars, I would. These guys are not only extremely talented at what they do, they are so much FUN to work with! We have been to lots of weddings before where the photographer(s) end up keeping the bridal party for a couple hours to do pictures.. which ends up resulting in a lot of party time missed. My husband and I didn't want that. These two listened to every concern, every request, and even helped us with suggestions for different things like first look locations and what would be best for gorgeous pictures! I've been to some weddings where the photographer can get bossy and start to ruin the experience. Completely opposite with Next Best Men. The cameras were so quiet and the guys moved quickly and quietly that they were photo ninjas. We enjoyed them so much that we are going to be contacting them for a second photo shoot of us on our motorcycles! You will definitely not be disappointed if you book with Next Best Men.

Wyatt and Evan were truly a dream to work with! From day one we knew they were the perfect photographers for us and loved their shooting style. We had a nontraditional wedding in a unique garden venue and I am blown away by the beautiful moments they were able to capture. Wyatt and Evan helped answer any questions we had during the planning process and helped us scope out beautiful locations a month before our wedding to get the best shots for our first look, family portraits, and sunset photos. It was so great having both of them shoot our wedding and they were so personable and amazing with our wedding guests, including my baby cousins who rocked the dance floor! If you are getting married in the future, please contact The Next Best Men Wedding Photographers and you will not be disappointed! They deserve all the stars! 10/5!

Wyatt and Even (The Next Best Men) were amazing to work with. If you are looking for a photographer, I'd 100% suggest these two guys! First off they drove a long way just to scout the areas in advance and make sure we were ready for the big day. They arrived on time and worked incredibly hard all day. The photos provided, in 1 month of wedding, were absolutely stunning. We will forever have and cherish these wonderful photos of our wedding day.

Evan and Wyatt were by far the BEST vendors we chose for our wedding! Seriously these guys are a trip!! So easy going and hilarious to work with from the minute we gave them a call all the way up to our wedding day. They offered us so many useful tips for planning our wedding, and they even took the time to look around our venue beforehand and discovered a spot for our first look that was soooo much better than what my husband and I had in mind! We knew we were in such good hands before our wedding day, and then when we got our photos back I was so overjoyed I kept laughing and crying on repeat. The guys captured hundreds of sweet and adorable candid moments, which was EXACTLY what I wanted!! If you’re looking for two amazing talented photographers who go that extra mile, do yourself a favor and hit them up right now!

You guys were such a wonderful presence to have. Everyone keeps asking me for your info, so I guess you made some good impressions all around! We hope you continue to find such success in the wedding world (because you deserve it). Josh and I sincerely thank you for your dedication to your craft and for being such nice people. We finally have good pictures of us!

I had the immense honor of my wedding day being photographed by Next Best Men! Evan and Wyatt are not only professional, prompt, and friendly, but they are exceedingly talented photographers. Their approach allows your day to be captured on film the way it felt in real life. When I look back at the photos of our wedding day, I can feel the celebration all over again. Next Best Men gave us photos we will cherish forever. They manage to turn the purity of candid, raw interactions and emotions into a beautiful work of art. They will truly take your suggestions to heart, too (i.e. black and white, or focussing on certain areas of the reception, etc). There is an invaluable benefit to having two photographers on this day, and I can promise you it is worth every penny to hire these two. The champagne will be drunk, the food will be eaten, but these photos will last a lifetime. I knew, for this reason, that the choice of photographer was my most important wedding day decision (besides the I do, obviously). I am so overjoyed that I made the right choice. Their photos speak for themselves.

To be honest pretty much the entire experience was really incredible so I'm wanting to leave reviews all around, BUT the photographers working the wedding were some of the most professional, hard working, and friendly guys I've met when it comes to event staff. I haven't seen all their shots, but what I saw shared on facebook was really something. The photographer at another wedding I attended a few years back seemed to just hang around the bar, and he left a weird vibe. These guys were on the dance floor capturing everything and were so nice. Their cameras were also silent, so even though they were shooting the entire time during the ceremony during sunset it wasn't annoying. I told them they did a great job at the end of the night and we had a nice chat about motorcycles, cameras, and how hot florida is lol. Just wanted to leave a nice comment on here since you guys put in such an effort. Thanks Wyatt and Evan!

I attended a wedding down near Tampa. To be honest pretty much the entire experience was spectacular so I'm leaving reviews all around, but the photographers working the wedding were some of the most professional, hard working, and friendly guys I've met when it comes to event staff. I haven't seen all the finals yet, but what I saw shared on facebook was awesome and frankly surprising. The photographer at a wedding I attended some years back seemed to just hang around and hit the bar. These guys were on the dance floor capturing everything. Their cameras were also silent, so even though they were shooting the entire time during the ceremony at sunset it wasn't annoying at all. I told them they did a great job at the end of the night and we had a nice chat about motorcyclse and hot florida is. Just wanted to leave a nice comment on here since you guys put in such an effort that night.

The real deal! I do makeup in my professional life, and I’ve been on photo sets. I can say these guys are the absolute best type of creative professionals to work with. They weren’t stressed out during our big day, they were quick as heck, and real funny the whole time. We found them before they ever had a knot page through mutual friends, and after meeting face to face my mind was made up to go with the “Next Best Men”. So much of your wedding day should be about enjoying the ride. Hire people who make you comfortable! I would talk about the photos but just look at their page. They rock! Thanks again guys!

Wyatt and Evan are so funny! They have a great dynamic together and are a breeze to be around and pose with. I say pose with because they will literally come up and show ya how to stand to look great. Oh and with their powers combined they make some really incredible photos! My wife and I loved our venue, but the light was kinda cruddy to be honest when it got time to take our portraits. The guys set up a few lights really quick and showed us the results. Our mouths about hit the floor. They know what they are doing! They got the kids to smile in our family photos too. A+.

Ok so it seems everyone gives out 5 star reviews as the norm on the knot but these guys actually deserve it!!! Here's my honest review. We did a lot of shopping around and asking friends before deciding on Evan and Wyatt. It came down to knowing there would be two people working together instead of just one photographer scrambling to get everything done, and their rapport with us and our LARGE bridal party was just awesome. They brought a long a sort of pose book (my wife and I aren't great at that lol) and they had us (and our parties) looking great fast. Their portfolio speaks for itself. You should just message them now. We are so happy with our photos and how they process them. The least we could do is leave a nice review. Thanks guys we are definitely recommending you!

I recently attended a wedding at Bayshore Ranch near Fort Myers (cool country venue check it out also) that "The Next Best Men" were covering. I've been to a few weddings but I've never seen a pair of photographers work so hard. Wyatt showed me a few shots he had gotten of myself out on the dance with floor with my girlfriend and they were great! Can't wait to see all the shots someday! Just wanted to say thanks to both of you guys for busting your butts out there! -Anthony

Wyatt and Evan photographed our small elopement ceremony, and truly captured how perfect the day was. We've framed a ton of our photos and have them throughout our house, and people ALWAYS comment on how happy and beautiful we looked. The guys went to great lengths to get incredible shots, and took such care and time to create and capture intimate, unique moments. Couldn't be happier =)

We hired The Next Best Men to photograph our wedding! We wanted a team that was 1.) Easy and fun to work with during the hustle and bustle and 2.) confident and skilled enough to do their magic quickly and awesomely. After it all, all we can say is that it was such a treat to work with Evan and Wyatt. They did an incredible job capturing everyone celebrating in the moment which was especially amazing. All our pictures and portraits turned out beautiful and were so happy with them! We would recommend them 1000% for any occasion. Trust the guys in black!

I used Evan for a party, and will definitely be hiring him and Wyatt for my wedding! Professional, courteous, and made me feel so comfortable AND BEAUTIFUL.
Their photo style looks more like photos found in a glamorous New York Times article or a Vogue photo shoot than the typical wedding fare- I love this and it feel MUCH more representative of my style.
