The photographer was very professional and very nice throughout the wedding. I was shown the photos after and was amazed at how great they came out. She was very friendly with everyone there and captured every moment perfectly. I highly recommend her to anyone that chooses this company for their wedding.

My granddaughter had her wedding in September and used The Talented Photographer as her photographer. Each and every photo came out beautifully and their website has options to purchase them as print outs multiple ways. The photographer took her time doing the family portraits after the ceremony, making sure to include everyone and get every picture that the bride and groom wanted. They were both very happy with their photos and have them as memories to last a lifetime.

Linda A

My husband and I were guests at a wedding and The Talented Photographer was there. I must say, they created a fun and welcoming environment for all. The photographer went around during the dinner and reception and got candid shots as well as posed photos of not only the bride and groom but the guests as well! We were able to have recently viewed the couples wedding photos and they were absolutely breathtaking.

As the man of honor at Melissa & Evan’s wedding, I can confidently say that the photographer was exceptional. From start to finish, they captured every moment beautifully—blending candid shots with stunning portraits, all while making everyone feel comfortable. The photos are absolutely gorgeous, and the couple was beyond thrilled with the results. Professional, efficient, and talented, they truly helped make their day unforgettable. Highly recommend!

Sierra W

12/16/2024

I had the pleasure of coordinating Melissa & Evan’s wedding on 9.20.24, and I can’t recommend their photographers enough! They were absolutely fantastic to work with. Not only did they capture stunning photos, but they also made the couple feel completely at ease throughout the day. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and they kept everything on track with the timeline, which made the entire event run smoothly. 10/10 would definitely recommend!

My wife and I found The Talented Photographers portfolio while searching for wedding photographers and we were instantly drawn to their photos. Booking with Christian was extremely easy and pricing was reasonable. Christian was always available to answer any questions we had, making sure we received the perfect service for our wedding. Anastasia was our photographer and she was great! Neither my wife nor I are exactly great “photo people” as we are shy, but Anastasia helped us have comfort and confidence to get the photos we wanted. We received all of our photos very quickly and they did not disappoint. We can’t say enough good things about The Talented Photographer.

Melissa W

12/15/2024

Anastasia was our photographer and she was absolutely amazing! She was extremely professional and personable. She helped to pose us for photos and also took candid shots. I’m not lying when I say that every single photo came out BEAUTIFUL. She even gave us three adorable Polaroid style magnet photos during our reception, of photos that we took just hours prior. She took every opportunity she could to take photos of us, ensuring that we would have wonderful memories of our entire wedding that will last a lifetime. Look no further, Anastasia and Christian are truly the best!

Dana S

We hired Anastasia from the team and she was the sweetest human being we have ever met. I am a big nerd and I researched and researched and compared and compared like 100 portfolios and I realized that this team had the best work. It’s a really good team and they take their work serious meaning they care. Anastasia was seriously so sweet and caring and her direction was easy to follow. I never felt uncomfortable and we felt we had really good guidance. Our entire gallery is beautiful. If you’re a research nerdy bride like me who overthinks everything I am telling you this is the team and look no further!

Jannis D

11/17/2022

Anastasia was great honestly we are very happy we hired her specifically. We felt very comfortable and we were able to be ourselves which is what mattered most to us. The owner of the company made things very simple to us from the beginning, and always replied faster than our other vendors which was also very important to us. The photos are beautiful, thank you Ana.

Leslie R

Originally we fell in love with Christian’s work but we didn’t have the budget. We went with the secret package and Anastasia was sent to our wedding. She was very sweet, kind, attentive and she worked really hard. Our photos actually came out looking a lot like Christian’s and we can tell Christian trained her well. She is also very smart and she solved a problem we had with our planning (which was a mistake on the wedding planners side) and she kind of saved the day honestly. Thank you Anastasia, our photos are beautiful. We will be ordering an album to preserve those memories in a beautiful leather album :)

I am leaving this review letting everyone know that our photos were incredible!!!! I am super chilled, totally not a bridezilla, I didn’t even care, I let them do their thing and I received tons and tons of awesome photos! This is the kind of fun team that knows how to make things easy! We honestly weren’t expecting it to be so simple, no need to over complicate anything or think or do extensive meetings or planning with this team. That’s why I hired them! I just wanted to have fun and get great pictures and that’s exactly what happened! ! Loved the photos OMG! Thank you!

jennifer r

12/31/2021

It was the best team we found after weeks looking around. Our photos were great we loved them! 5/5 stars

Josey V

12/31/2021

At first I was a little skeptical about the secret package but then I checked out the entire team and honestly everyone on the team looked great. My budget wouldn’t let me go for a photographer in specific but I am very happy with the photographers I got. They were super nice. I had one of the photographers running around all day, the poor guy had so much patience with me! Loved them all including the owner, Christian, he was always there for me. I can see how much they care about what they do and why they are so successful at what they do. Photos came out great! I am a bit overweight and I honestly look good in the photos and I think its because of the angles. Thank you so much The Talented Photographer team!!!! You made me look beautiful in social media lol!

Super easy, relaxed, chilled, fun, easy and professional team. Nothing else like you find around. These guys are the true talented pros and none of that cheesy un-natural wedding photography you see everywhere. They are true artists and they made everything a freaking breeze!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hired them and they showed up and they did their thing without too many meetings and calls and all that which is what I was looking for… amazing photos! Practically the photo I printed and put on my wall is worth my entire wedding as a work of art!!! So freaking beautiful! I recommend to everyone happy couple here!! Cool people you’d want to hang out with and be friends with too!!!

Sarah G

11/18/2021

My photos were top notch to say the least. The photographer was very nice and kind and we had fun. Process was simple. I had no stress during my wedding. I received a lot of photos (over 600 edited photos) which I thought was very good especially with my wedding not being over the top. A lot of candids, editorial, and fun photos. He did a great job and I ordered an album the album was also pretty beautiful! The album was well made and I can tell they put thought into the design also.

Ashley C

We selected the Secret Package and got Alec as one of the photographers and he was very sweet and his guidance made things easier. The owner of the company also talked to me whenever I wanted and he was always there for me. This company has heart and that matters more than anything when it comes to weddings. They make sure you feel at ease!

WE ARE SO FREAKING HAPPY! FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY. I WOULD TOTALLY RECOMMEND THE TOP PHOTOGRAPHERS TO ANYONE. MY PHOTO SESSIONS WERE FAST AND FUNNY. THE PHOTOGRAPHER WAS OUTGOING AND FUNNY AND I FEEL LIKE IT MADE THINGS EASIER.

I wanted to make my darling happy with the photography of the wedding but our budget wasn't too high... after some research I went with The Top Photographers. Luis was sent to me and honestly we couldn't be happier. Thank you so much!

maria p

Luis was sent to us from the team, he was pretty amazing. He has a relaxed personality, very kind, and he has a lot of Patience. The photos came out great and we are truly happy with this company.

Crystal L

11/30/2017

All I can say is that every question I had over a 10 month span before my wedding was answered. They were willing to work with my budget as well as offer two photographers for my wedding. They were professional and experienced. I liked the laid back vibe they brought to my wedding and willingness to work with areas and poses we wanted. They were great at giving direction and working with a vision. I can't wait to see some of the final proofs as well as all the photos in general!

Elisabeth A

Booked Christian for my wedding in October and I can’t say enough wonderful things!! I got my pictures back and they are absolutely stunning. He captured so much emotion in so many of our pictures as well as got sooo many candid shots that turned out perfect! Normally I hate my picture taken but Christian made it very easy to feel comfortable in front of the camera. I am so happy that I have so many gorgeous pictures to reminisce on forever. Thank you Christian!

sheena s

11/09/2017

Christian is an absolute rock star! We are so happy with our pictures. He took the time out to make over 1300 pictures look incredibly stunning, and all of which came together to tell a beautiful story of our wedding day. Christian's professionalism, light-hearted spirit, and attention to detail made everything that much smoother. His prices are beyond reasonable, and worth every single cent. Wishing him all the success in the world because he most certainly deserves it!

Grace A

11/07/2017

Wow, I cannot sing Christian’s praises enough! First, his down-to-earth attitude calmed down my jittery nerves. I do not consider myself as very photogenic where I almost dread having pictures taken of myself. I tend to just freeze and look awkward when I know a camera is on me. But Christian’s fun-loving personality allowed me to let my guard down and be myself, which resulted in astoundingly beautiful photographs!!! His assistant Jasmine was wonderful as well! Second, he is great at adapting to his surroundings and circumstances. He flawlessly managed to get all of the family photos that I wanted before it started to downpour rain on us, just in the nick of time. With how large my family is and with many little kids, this was definitely no small feat. My family is full of goofy, over- the-top personalities and that became very apparent on the dance floor. Christian and Jasmine captured one-of-a-kind photos that make me smile looking back at them. Last but certainly not least, he definitely lives up to his name of “The Talented Photographer”! He is unbelievably talented and his gorgeous photos are proof of that! I cannot stop looking at our wedding photos as they keep getting better the more I look at them! His attention to detail surpassed all of my expectations! If there is still any hesitation, please do yourself a favor and book him now before it’s too late! You will definitely not regret it! I highly recommend him to everyone! Thank you SO much Christian and Jasmine for giving us lifelong memories through your photos and for embracing my crazy family! lol Best wishes!

robin s

There are many photographers out there. A lot of people can simply buy a camera and take photos. To find good, talented, real artists and masters in photography is actually pretty hard. This is one of them. WE COULDNT BE HAPPIER.

An amazing photographer. We adored him. Now he is also our good friend... we couldn't be happier with the photos he provided. <3

Planning a wedding can be stressful. The day of your wedding can be stressful. Having a photographer that knows what he is doing with great direction in a hectic day is seriously such a plus +++++++ so many cool points for him. Loved my photos.

Tory C

10/23/2017

We could not have asked for a better photographer. Christian was AWESOME! He was super friendly, professional, and has such a distinct and gorgeous photography style! Every picture (and he took a lot!) is a work of art and can stand on its own. He captured everything and then some on our wedding day. We are very grateful and highly recommend him to anyone!

robin s

10/23/2017

Incredible photographer. We are a very shy couple and he gave us the direction we needed and helped us. I didn't know the photography part was so easy until I did it.. thank you so much.

kara g

10/23/2017

I mean... amazing. Outstanding. Beautiful. Gigantic. MY ENTIRE WEDDING GALLERY WAS PERFECT! jeez... this man is such an artist. 5/5 for sure. I will use him for the rest of my life if I can for photography!

joanna s

10/23/2017

Me and my new handsome husband are sooooooooooo happy we hired him. We had a blast of fun. He was very professional and fun at the same time! my family adored him... What I liked the most is how easy it is to work with him and his quality of work. I hope you realize you're looking at one of the best wedding photographers in USA hands down. I looked around for months until I found him. Book him if he is available for you right away!

brit j

10/23/2017

He was really nice. I honestly consider myself a bridezilla (lol)... I think I went overboard crazy lol. Eventually I just let him do his job and it turned out amazing. Hire him and let go! he's an expert. He was able to deal with me and that's honestly hard. He's worth much more of what he charges and that's a no brainer when you compare his work with others... ask to see one of his full wedding galleries and prepare to be mind blown!!

Mila L

Hi everyone, I've booked Christian right before the hurricane Irma hit Miami. Our flight was cancelled, therefore I had to cancel the shooting at Miami Beach - my childhood dream :( I was planning this wedding much ahead and was extremely upset, as the weather let us down in this awful way... Luckily Christian was so friendly and offered us a couple of alternative options, to postpone the shooting, so that our booking is not completely lost. Unfortunately we cannot rebook our flights in the nearest future, but we are looking forward to the shooting whenever it will happen. Christian's works are truly amazing!

matt s

8/22/2017

I am so happy my wife Emily found him. The Talented Photographer found a way to not make me look silly... I always look dumb. He's amazing... even my hard to deal with mom, loved him. All of my sisters and family felt very comfortable with him. We eventually begged him to stay and party with us after the wedding lol! He's also a good person, believe me... he saved the day.

emily s

8/22/2017

As a wedding planner, I have worked with tons of wedding photographers. This is by far my favorite one. It is why I picked him to be the photographer of my wedding. I am beyond happy with my photos and I am in love with his work. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. Amazing quality of work, super professional, super fun, fast and my family and friends enjoyed his presence. I can't thank him enough.

Jason L

Christian was an outstanding photographer. My wife and I were so happy we chose him for our wedding. He was personable and professional and took the most AMAZING photos of our special day. He is a true artist. Our album looks absolutely beautiful. We could not be happier. Thank you so much!! When it comes to choosing your photographer, this is a no-brainer. If you want spectacular photos, book The Talented Photographer!

Monica L

7/27/2017

Christian is a phenomenal photographer. Our wedding pictures came out fantastic. Everyone that looks at them comments on how impressive the photos are. He is truly one of a kind and captures all your memorable moments with an artistic flair. He is by far the best out there. Other photographers do not put the time and effort that this man does in his work. He also is very professional and makes everyone feel comfortable. Future brides and grooms, book him, you will not be disappointed!

Jackie L

Christian did a fantastic job for us. He and his assistant were able to get great shots and were very easy to work with. We just got our pictures back and he did a great job. Thank you so much!

Melissa M

5/21/2017

Christian is absolutely AMAZING! His passion for photography is evident and his creativity is better than anything that you will see on Pinterest. He puts his heart into every click of the camera. He has the ability to mingle while photographing discretely and by the end of the evening he had become a friend to our family. Everyone absolutely adored him. Before my wedding day like most brides I had a Pinterest board of all the shots that I wanted to be sure that Christian captured. In the chaos & nervousness of the day I forgot about my board and just hoped that he would capture those shots without my direction. He did more than that! Between my husband and I we have 8 children, two of them living out of state. All though my family is from here; his is from Texas. Our wedding was the one time that we would have all of our loved ones in the same place; to have pictures of all of us together was very important to me. I did not hire anyone to video my wedding and wondered if I would regret it. I haven't at all; every time I look at my wedding pictures I remember it like it was yesterday. Christian caught so many sentimental natural moments that I will treasure always. I will recommend him to everyone that I know, so thankful that my friend introduced us!

Shana K

My husband and I got married on 3/26/17. I originally chose to hire The Talented Photographer because he sounded professional and his work was really unique compared to many other photographers I was considering. We are so pleased we went with this company. The photos are beautiful and he really worked to catch every important moment. We definitely recommend the talented photographer!
