The Talented Photographer exceeded all expectations at my daughter’s wedding. Anastasia was not only professional but also brought warmth and creativity to her work. She captured every big moment and so many little ones that we might have missed otherwise. I appreciate how well the team communicated with us leading up to the big day and how flawlessly everything came together. I wholeheartedly recommend them!

Her eye for detail and professionalism were evident in every shot. The photos are treasures that we will cherish forever. The Talented Photographer company made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I can’t thank them enough for their excellent work!

Our experience with Anastasia from The Talented Photographer was absolutely wonderful. She has an incredible eye for finding beautiful locations, and every setting she chose enhanced our photos perfectly. She seamlessly captured not only stunning posed shots but also heartfelt candid moments that truly reflect the spirit of the day. One of the highlights was how she effortlessly adapted to a photo game we included, even though we forgot to mention it ahead of time. The way she jumped in and captured the fun made those moments unforgettable. She also made sure to include our guests in some of the shots, which added so much depth and personality to our collection of photos. The photos are breathtakingly beautiful and perfectly preserve the joy, love, and emotion of our wedding day. From beginning to end, the team at The Talented Photographer was communicative and professional, and Anastasia exceeded all of our expectations. We are beyond grateful for these memories!

I’m not usually into taking pictures, but Anastasia made it really easy and even kind of fun. She got some amazing shots of my sister and her husband, but also made sure to include the rest of us in a bunch of group and candid photos. I thought it was cool how she jumped into a random photo game they did and still managed to get great pictures out of it. The photos turned out awesome, and now we have so many good memories to look back on. She did an amazing job!

“I couldn’t be happier with the photos from my son’s wedding. The Talented Photographer company truly lives up to their name. Anastasia was on time, well-prepared, and brought such a calm energy to what can be a hectic day. She has an incredible talent for finding the perfect angles and lighting. The quality of the photos is top-notch, and we will treasure them forever.”

As the maid of honor, I saw firsthand how wonderful Anastasia was to work with on my brother and sister-in-law’s wedding day. She was patient and personable, making everyone feel at ease. Her creativity and quick thinking really stood out when unexpected moments popped up, and the resulting photos were incredible. Every picture tells a story, and I’m so grateful to have these beautiful memories preserved. I can’t recommend The Talented Photographer enough!

“Our wedding photos exceeded all expectations, thanks to Anastasia and The Talented Photographer team. Anastasia’s ability to put everyone at ease while capturing candid, beautiful moments was unmatched. She was punctual, prepared, and went above and beyond throughout the day. I highly recommend this company for anyone wanting timeless, high-quality photos that tell their story perfectly.”

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

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.

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!

They were on time, easy to work with and the photos were excellent and the album was top notch. My sister works in a lab and she told me the albums they make are surprisingly higher quality than most wedding albums she sees from other companies. We had fun and the portraits didn’t take too long. I have a hard family and they managed them well. Photos came out better than expected. I’m very very happy thank you

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!!!

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!

Sarah G

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.

Katie S

11/01/2020

We are a shy camera couple and I am not very photogenic. The truth is that they worked those angles in such a way I looked so good in my photos. I was impressed. My family and friends are very impressed with the photos. We received very easy and comfortable direction and we didn’t worry about a single thing which is what we wanted. I feel that they adapted to us very easily and we received a lot of edited photos to choose from. We are recommending them for the rest of our lives <3

Manuela S

10/31/2020

Christian was so nice and he is simply so smart and organized. My entire day was super simple and he made my now husband laugh and take photos which no one has been able to do. 5 stars more than reserved. We also ordered an album and it is the most beautiful album we ever seen to date. We became friends with Christian in life and that tells a lot about a person.

Caitlin S

10/31/2020

To save you time, him and his team are THE BEST on The Knot. My wedding planner recommended this company and so did my venue. INCREDIBLE. Happy couple here

I had to move my wedding date because of covid and they did it without questions asked and I didn’t lose my money! they are being super flexible with this while other companies have not been able to be as flexible!

Danielle F

10/31/2020

I got one of those Secret Packages and the team I was sent was amazing. Thy were fun and I got more than I expected. They also worked very well with my family. I think the Secret Package is a really good deal!!!!!! Thank you so much Christian and your time! You were very attentive and always answered my million questions lol!!!

Sofia C

As a bride who researched constantly for weeks and weeks I must say I kept coming back to this company for the quality of work. Me and my now husband paid for the wedding ourselves and one thing we wanted was an amazing photographer. I showed my friends his work and other photographers just to get a different opinion and they all agreed he was the best in the area. When he came to my wedding me and my bridesmaids felt comfortable instantly. He was so sweet and unobstructive. He didn’t require much attention at all and thank god for that because I didnt wan’t a needy or awkward photographer. I think he read me well and adapted to me easily. My photos were gorgeous and we ended up ordering an album too which was so well made and beautiful. We had such a good time during our wedding we even offered him a drink and invited him to dance with us. He was so fun. He had some sort of compact Polaroid printer that day and printed me some polaroids with the photos he took that day with his professional camera and gave a few to my parents as a surprise. My mom cried when she saw the polaroids. He handled people very well during the group photos and this requires a lot of control especially with my drunk friends and he did it so naturally.

Incredible! I am super awkward with photos and I have no idea how to pose or be in front of a camera. Christian made it fun and fast and the photos were beyond what I expected. Our guests also enjoyed his company, and I received comments from the wedding planner that he has been the best photographer she's worked with in 20 years. Thats incredible.

Luis was incredible. Thank you! We received beautiful photos. These guys know what they're doing.

The Talented Photographer was probably the best photographer I've worked with. I have a huge family and I have been to tons of weddings and I just needed someone that worked fast while providing good photos and I just cant be any happier with him. Thank you so much Christian, we like absolutely love the photos and I cannot stop showing people and we are about to print one and hang it in the living room! OMGOMGOMG priceless shots Christian. Priceless.

Hands down one of the best photographers of our era. Grab him before he explodes and you can still afford him. Super happy with my photos.

Kristen M

10/11/2018

We booked Christian for our wedding because we loved his work and saw the reviews. We were glad we did because he was fantastic to work with on the wedding day. He had great ideas for artistic flare to make our pictures one of a kind. The unedited pictures we saw the day of on the camera were amazing, so we cannot wait see the actual pictures. We did a first look on the beach, and he and Kristen (we asked for a 2nd photographer too) made sure to get everyone out of the way and align us to capture this very special moment perfectly. On top of it they were great to work with! We didn’t even realize they were there, as they let us enjoy our moment. Christian and Kristen were great to work with, and Christian was always incredible about getting back quickly to all of our questions leading up. He is very focused on getting perfect shots, and gives many suggestions along the way to capture natural and genuine moments. Helped to make our day relaxed and special. Can’t wait to see the pictures.

With my husband being a groomzilla and be being a bridegodzilla, he handled us incredibly well. The images were spectacular. Honestly, I spent hours, and hours, and hours, looking for a wedding photographer ... and I couldn't find a better one. I hired him and annoyed him with tons of emails... then I realized that all I had to do from the beginning was relax and let him handle the photography side of things. He is an expert, a master, an icon in the business and I dear you to find someone better. He is also so fun!

Matilda G

10/05/2018

Fast. Reliable. Punctual. Funny. Fun. Smart. Outgoing. Passionate. I would describe him with those words. Christian is now like a family member to us. We even put him in the circle of trust. lol.

Carlos J

We all cried while looking at the pictures. I mean, we had to call him and leave him the most incredible voice mail ever. Incredible photos

Anna M

10/05/2018

I used to be a wedding planner and I have to admit I've never seen a wedding photographer be so fun, confident, and wise about wedding photography. He shot my wedding and I couldn't be happier... the photos are incredible. Everyone got along with him pretty well, he is good at what he does and also good with people.

Kiera B

My husband and I hired Christian for our wedding and he created the most amazzzzing gallery for us. We shopped around for a while and eventually decided Christian was worth our investment because of the quality of his work. The photos were exactly how I imagine remembering my wedding day for the rest of my life, and honestly it gave me that fairy tail look I've been imaging since I was a little girl! After all, our photos are the one thing my husband and I really have to represent our wedding to friends and family who couldn't make the event and for years to come. So having a journalistic style documentation was really important to us. And we also wanted photos that were just breathtakingly beautiful, so we could get them printed large format to hang on the wall in our new house. Christian was able to set us up with a book order and the quality large prints we wanted. Christian is really professional, helpful and super fun to work with too! Having him at the wedding made the quests have more fun because of his personality and making people laugh on camera. We are so happy that there are pictures of us, AND of our guests. We LOVE our photos!

Aubrey M

Christian is without a doubt, then most amazing and talented photographer out there! We had our engagement shoot with him and he made everything really easy and comfortable. Its difficult to be on camera and I'm not a modal at all lol, and Christian was able to guide the shoot and make us feel comfortable, and the photos looked amazing! He also is able to tell you exactly how to pose, in order to capture that really naturally romantic look you want for your engagement pictures, which really stands out on film. Christian's willingness to go to great lengths to get the best shot, like lying on the ground, climbing through bushes, traveling to a specific location etc, and all of the photos have an gorgeous composition, and very natural look. We felt like we were treated like his best friends at the shoot and he took the time to get to know us over the phone before the shoot and answer any questions we had. Also, the turnaround time is so fast, where as most photographers take months to get your photos back to you. He is a really fun but professional photographer to work with. I highly recommend him!

Christian did a great job with our engagement photos and the photos for our airplane hangar wedding! He was able to capture the precious moments from our wedding, and we are very happy with the images.

Christian’s photos were great! We really loved all the photos for our unique airplane hangar wedding. He was even able to capture shots from the airplane! We are happy to have our special day captured in the photo style we loved.

The photographer was incredibly fun, and made things easier. I am horrible at posing for photos but the process was simple and honestly a lot less work than I thought. Thank you so much for my awesome photos! Me and my family have been looking through them over and over again and they're amazing!

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!
