As I planned our wedding for May 2024, I had two main priorities: walk down the aisle and find the best photographer I could. I wanted someone who not only captured the aesthetic I was going for, but someone who was going to take the time to establish a relationship with us to better capture our day. Rusty fulfilled all of my expectations and more. Our engagement photos set the tone for what I could expect on our wedding day, and I knew if our wedding photos were anything like our engagement shoot, we would be beyond pleased. Ironically, I didn't interact much with Rusty at our wedding. He has the amazing ability to be present and capture the important moments without being noticed. He took all of our requests into account, no matter how non-traditional. His colleague, Addison, also did an exceptional job. I knew at the end of the day I would leave with a husband, my own memories, and some pictures to commemorate one of the happiest days of my life, and looking back I am beyond lucky to have scored Rusty for the job. Also, Blanc Booth was a top highlight from our day. Waldron scored a 10/10 and I would recommend 10x over to anyone looking for a photographer.
Rusty is the absolute best! He does such a nice job of getting to know each couple and made us and our guests feel like lifelong friends. He gave us everything we wanted in our wedding photos! Not only did he give us the dreamiest wedding photos, but was also a huge help leading up to and on the day of the wedding. We truly can’t say enough good things about him and his work!
Choosing Rusty to photograph our wedding was the best decision my husband and I made. He is professional, organized, efficient, and also made us forget there was a photographer around us. He is such a great person to have around the day of the wedding and his photos are amazing. We are still in awe over them and keep finding new favorites. I seriously can't recommend him enough, our overall wedding experience would have been completely different without him, and definitely not in a good way.
Rusty and his crew are so amazing to work with. He was easy to get into touch with. He listened to what we wanted to capture and did it better than we could have even imagined. We chose him because we loved how unique and different his work is. It seems like anyone can take good pictures with a nice camera these days. The pictures that were captured, it’s as if we can look back on them and feel everything we were feeling that day. They captured it so well and were so much fun to work with.
It’s hard to put into words just how special it is to work with Rusty and his crew on your wedding day. Waldron was our very first vendor pick for a reason… they are by far the best of the best. We booked Rusty before we had a venue, guest count, or really any wedding vision at all. We just knew whatever we landed on, we needed someone who could skillfully document every beautiful moment of our long awaited wedding day. And he did just that AND some.
Rusty has a way of making you both feel natural and effortless in every picture all day long. He truly is a “fly on the wall” and captures raw moments in such an artistic and flattering way. He absolutely blew us out of the water with his creative intuition, professionalism, talent and dedication to providing us with an individualized experience and beautifully REAL pictures. We can’t thank you enough Rusty!!
Cannot say enough about Rusty! We had such a great experience.
Rusty is kind, professional, approachable, respectful and very well-versed in all things wedding! He was helpful and accommodating, as we are not anywhere near models! Giving us small prompts that end up creating magic!
Rusty is great at capturing feeling in his photographs- everything is very genuine.
I personally do not like to be photographed (usually don’t like how I look) and there is not a bad photo in the bunch!
You will not regret having Rusty in your corner!
Won’t bury the lede for you, Internet: Rusty at Waldron Photography is amazing. We planned our KC wedding remotely from Chicago, during the pandemic. Anxiety, you might suspect, was high. So the thing we came to value most about Rusty—beyond even his taste, eye, and shooting skill—was communication. Our guy knows how to email. He was the quickest to respond to questions, schedule FaceTime meetings, and generally put our minds at ease. While anxiously planning a “destination” wedding, this was clutch.
Rusty, of course, has an amazing eye—you've seen Waldron's Instagram. But he was very open to notes on what kind of pictures we were feeling before and after our engagement photo session (we definitely like candids over posed portraits; thank you, Rusty, for your patience in our inability to take ourselves seriously). Overall, dialing in our vibe felt like a fun, collaborative process.
Yes, Rusty is fun! And chill as hell. So if that’s a vibe you’re looking for on your wedding day, he’s got it. We loved having a calm, competent presence capturing the moment. He’s a great wrangler when the job requires—and he doesn’t have to yell at anyone to get people into position.
The TL;DR: Rusty gave us exactly what we were looking for in our wedding photos: us, but elevated. He made us look GOOD. He’s a lovely guy who’s lovely to work with. He had 100 percent of our trust, from beginning to end. If he’s available, we’d definitely book him for our next weddings*.
One last thing: spring for the photo booth. Some of our favorite photos of the night came from friends and family using the photo booth.
(*This is a joke, approved by wife.)
The best decision I made besides saying yes to my current husband is going with Rusty as my wedding photographer! His work on instagram really caught my eye but I wondered if my husband and I who are truly the most awkward people to photograph could actually look natural in our wedding photos. Rusty absolutely killed it - not one photo looks 'staged' and every single person looks incredible. These are not your typical wedding photos - they capture the day and the emotions perfectly but also are beautifully shot and visually interesting. Rusty and his second shooter were awesome to work with and he is also just a wonderful person to have by your side on wedding day - keeping things moving and was a calm presence in the midst of all of it. We got a curated highlight reel just 1 day after the wedding and got our full album about 5-6 weeks after which is crazy fast for how many photos we received and the quality. He was also super on top of it since we booked him on following up and answering any and all questions we had during the process. My friends and family can't believe how stunning these photos are and are something we will all cherish for generations!!
Having Rusty take our wedding photographs was one of THE best decisions we made for our wedding day/weekend! Rusty did a great job of making us feel beautiful while also capturing what feels like authentic snapshots of "us" as a couple. Instead of feeling like I was posing for pictures, I felt like I was just living (and loving) our day with Rusty in the background capturing it. The emotion and joy he managed to capture is incredible, and he also helped us do a streamlined approach to "formal" pictures so that we could spend more time with our guests (one of our priorities!). Rusty was so organized on the front end that the day itself went seamlessly, and he managed to bring an extra level of calm to the weekend (and, frankly, to the whole process!). The photos are absolutely incredible (although I recognize I'm biased...), and I know we'll cherish them for decades. You absolutely will not regret having Rusty and his team capture your weekend.
RUSTY. Y'all, Rusty is incredible.
From the moment we hired him, we knew he was special. He's incredibly kind and genuinely invested in his clients. He spent time getting to know us as a couple, and was beyond thoughtful about making sure he was capturing the day in a way that was authentic to us.
In a stressful environment he was a conduit of calm, and we centered on his energy throughout the day. Like, beyond normal wedding stress. We had a damn tornado in the middle of dinner.
The photos were amazing, plus he was a lot of fun to hang out with and have along for the day. Rusty felt more like a bridesmaid or a groomsmen than someone we'd hired.
We could not imagine our wedding day without him, he was such a highlight. Thank you Rusty
Rusty and crew did a wonderful job taking our wedding photos! My husband and I and our families couldn’t be happier with how all the photos turned out. He took the time to listen to what we wanted and also had some amazing ideas for some really beautiful shots. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a wedding photographer. I couldn’t be happier that my husband and I found Waldron Photograph Co.
My wife and I had our wedding at the end of May 2021, and we had the extreme good fortune of working with Rusty of Waldron Photography to capture our event. Our package with Rusty included an engagement photoshoot as well 8 hours on the wedding day. We included an add-on for the Blanc Booth; a high-quality professional photo-booth during the reception which offers black and white portraits for the entire evening. To put it plainly, I was absolutely blown away by the level of service, skill, and professionalism that Rusty puts into his work. The photos are phenomenal, the communication was excellent, Rusty’s style and vision for our day was exactly what we wanted, and the entire time we were together I felt comfortable and at ease. By the end of the night, I felt like we were all best friends. I know that my wife and I were having a great time and I felt like Rusty had a lot of fun with us as well. Two days after the wedding Rusty had already sent us our Blank Booth portraits and a sneak peak at the pictures from the day, totaling 230 pictures. A little over a month after the wedding we had the entire collection and all of Rust’s photos. All in total, including engagement photos, the photo booth, and the rest of the wedding pictures we have over 1,000 beautiful photos of the absolute highest quality from who I believe to be the most exceptional photographer. I am eternally grateful for the experience we had with Waldron Photography and would absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of photography services.
Choosing Waldron was hands-down the best decision I made during the wedding planning process. Rusty is an absolute dream to work! He has a delightful personality and is very smart, creative, experienced, organized, highly efficient, punctual, and professional...the list goes on and on. Our photos from the engagement photos and wedding were stunning. My only regret is that I didn't have him at the rehearsal dinner too. Simply put, he is the best!
Where, oh where to begin? Rusty is just the best. Before you live your wedding day... you don't really know the full extent to just how much of an impact the vendors (who you will spend ALL day with) will have on EVERYONE's experience. They're in your family, they're in your wedding party, they're present for each moment big and small in your day. They've seen you grow from early planning and engagement photos to where you are when you get married. They see the journey. The laid-back energy, kindness, talent, and fun Rusty brought to our wedding was so incredibly special to Henry and I. Not only did Rusty deliver some incredible engagement and wedding photos, he made our personal experiences with getting married so much better than if he wasn't a part of it. Rusty knew just how important a good plan and good back up plan and back up to the back up plan was to me, and he excitedly would go over every detail with Henry and I however many times I wanted before the actual day... so when Rusty arrived to the bridesmaid suite I knew I could cruise into autopilot- he would take it from there. I could just be the bride and someone else would make sure it all happened. The photos he took for us will be some of our most prized possessions in our lifetime. He documented how we interact, how our family's love each other, how important our friends are, etc. and is able to communicate so much through his images. We say it all the time, but Rusty was the best decision we made for the wedding and we honestly didn't fully know that until we saw him that day. We knew he was good, trust me there... but we didn't realize until the day happened just how impactful it can be to have him in your corner on one of the biggest days of your life. Like everyone else says... you will not and could never be disappointed with Rusty. He has always exceeded any expectations and we are so, so thankful to him!
Wow, where can I even begin? Aside from our venue, picking our photographer was one of the most important aspects of our day that I wanted to get right. I spent hours researching photographers, created a crazy spreadsheet that had me feeling like a bridezilla, and realized Waldron was the only choice for us. During our engagement photos we were so concerned they would look awkward because we are both uncomfortable in front of the camera. Rusty put us at ease immediately and had several tricks to help us look natural.
On our day Rusty and Addison were so professional and brought the perfect balance of directing/observing. They knew when to step in to pose everyone and when to step back to allow us to be present in the moment the whole day and evening. After our day Rusty got our pictures to us so quickly and we were blown away at how perfectly our day was captured. Looking at our photos brings us back to the feelings of that day and will allow us to relive it forever. To us this is priceless and we cannot recommend Waldron enough. Our only photo-related problem throughout the entire process is now selecting which photos are our favorites because they are all so fantastic :)
WOW, I don't even know where to begin when talking about how great Rusty is. Not only is he one of the nicest people we've ever met, but he's such a calming presence on a day that has potential to be extremely nerve-wracking. His photography skills are so unique, we are so grateful that he was a part of our wedding. He captures moments you would have never known even existed, and now we'll always get to cherish those moments through his photos. He was also so accommodating to our needs on the day of our wedding and everything leading up to it. He also didn't hesitate to travel for our winter mountain wedding. He will 100% be our go-to photographer for our future family.
Waldron Photography was my dream photography company. I first saw his work from a Facebook friend and I couldn't get over how beautiful the pictures were. When it was time for my wedding I knew exactly who I wanted to take my pictures. Rusty is not only a great photographer but also the coolest guy you will meet. We met with him 1 on 1 multiple times during our engagement planning process. He was so helpful in those meetings and over email/phone communication, as well. Our engagement pictures session was so fun, even my husband raved about how easy it was, and he hates taking pictures! When it came time for our big day I knew I had a great photographer to capture it but I never knew how big of a role the photographer made on our wedding day! You spend all day with your photographer and it helped that we had a great relationship with Rusty (and also that he is so easy to get along with!) We also had a 2nd photographer, Stephen, who was amazing and friendly as well. He helped out Rusty and manned the photo booth during the reception. And if I haven't convinced you of hiring Rusty yet, his photo booth, Blancbooth, is AMAZING. You MUST book the photo booth. I had multiple people use the pictures as family Christmas card photos! Not to bring pop culture in here, but it reminds me of the Kardashian photo booth if y'all know what I'm talking about! SOO GOOD! My one regret was not taking even more pictures in there during the night! Sorry for the long post but I can't thank Waldron Photography enough for everything. Truly the best and I would suggest to anyone! Thank you Rusty and Stephen!
Rusty was so incredible to work with for our wedding! After the first meeting with Rusty, both my husband and I felt so comfortable with him and his style that we didn't even bother meeting with other photographers. Our engagement pictures were incredible and he was amazing at capturing the best, unstaged moments from our wedding. He is so easy to work with, so kind, and warm...you will not be disappointed! Ps: get the Blancbooth!
Rusty Wright of The Waldron Photograph Co. blew our mind with his photography, kindness, creative vision, and professionalism. From the first email with him we knew it was one of the best decisions about our wedding we had made. He's seriously a joy to work with, he leaves a lasting impression on everyone he comes in contact with, and he captured our wedding day in a way that exceeded what we could've ever hoped for. He made our wedding day look as magical as it felt. We're so grateful to have worked with Rusty and will 100% go back to him with any future photography we need. Do yourself a favor and get in touch with Rusty.
Rusty and his crew did an amazing job with our engagement and wedding photos. Rusty is very personable and makes you feel comfortable throughout the whole process. He helps lead you in the direction to make photos that look natural, and not too posed. I especially appreciated Rusty on our wedding day for fitting in some awesome outdoors photos even though there was rain coming and we had limited time. Due to the rain, Rusty had to get creative and found interesting and unique backdrops in our venue, and the pictures turned out perfect. I could not say enough about how much my husband and I loved working with Rusty and the Waldron team.
If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Rusty at The Waldron Photograph Co. went above and beyond on our wedding day and in every conversation leading up to our magical day.
As you plan a wedding, it's inevitable that you make a list of what's most important to you and your future spouse. Photographs capturing the aesthetic of our day were VERY important, way up on the top of our priority list. Rusty caught our eye because stylistically it fit the kind of journalistic approach to photography that we preferred.
Rusty was a master ringleader, orchestrating an excitable (slightly tipsy) family for portraits. The candid shots caught every unplanned silly, special, romantic moment we wanted captured on our wedding day. He also made us look like straight up super models. We never felt uncomfortable with his photo direction and I've never felt more beautiful.
In summation, if you are searching for a great photographer, Rusty’s your guy. From an artistic, technical and creative standpoint, he knows his stuff. Thanks Rusty!
Working with Rusty was a dream. He's everything you'd want in a wedding photographer. Not only do we have the most incredible photos, but he made the entire process easy and fun and totally carefree. From our first conversation I knew I was in great hands. He was so kind and thoughtful throughout the entire process. I am so so so grateful I found him and would wholeheartedly recommend him for your wedding day! If he's available, look no further!
Rusty was great to work with. He was calm and chill when things got a bit crazy.
My husband and I made numerous mistakes in the wedding planning process but choosing The Waldron Co. was not one of them. I don't know that I've met someone quite as kind, and easy going as Rusty. He made taking photos easy and we enjoyed our time with him. While we had many negative encounters with different vendors we were always refreshed talking with Rusty knowing he was a breath of fresh air from what we were used to dealing with. The Waldron Co. was our best wedding related decision next to getting married to each other and man are our pics breathtaking!!! Choose Waldron Co.
Rusty is hands down the best. Beautiful photos. Such a down to earth guy and so easy to work with. So thankful for the referral to him!
I highly recommend Waldron photography. Rusty was the best. He has the ability to keep the environment relaxed but also gives enough direction so everyone feels confident. He doesn’t shoot the exact same way for every wedding, but rather customizes with your interest in mind. The 2nd photographer, Dustin, was super nice as well. They never seemed to be in the way, but somehow caught all the moments from afar! They truly captured the mood of the night. Also Waldron is extremely professional; all the little touches from payment system to the final package, made for a great overall experience.
Simply the best photography company you could choose for your wedding day! We originally met with Rusty and knew right away this was the right choice! Rusty is so laid back and chill. He wants to get to know you guys as a couple and truly cares how you are doing throughout the whole process. Rusty always told us to reach out if he can help us with anything, photography related or anything. We requested two photographers and Rusty brought Dustin with him on the wedding day. Both of them did an amazing job and captured the day and we couldn't ask for better pictures! There were a few photographs that I specifically requested and throughout the busy day, he still managed to remember every little detail!
You will NOT regret choosing Rusty and Waldron!
From the beginning before any contract had been signed , Rusty was professional , kind and accommodating. Planning a wedding from out of town comes with stresses- but knowing that our photographer was on board and offering to help in any way , making recommendations, presenting us with timelines - put us at ease. When our ceremony got pushed back due to unexpected circumstances, Rusty was still able to get all the shots we requested with family and our wedding party before the reception started. We have amazing pictures of our ceremony , the dance floor , and special moments between my husband and I to name a few - that will be cherished forever. We highly recommend using Waldron Photography.
Do yourself a favor and book Rusty immediately! Your wedding photography will be the single most important part of your day and you want someone you can trust. Rusty is that person. From the moment we met we knew we had found our guy. We knew we wanted to work with Rusty before we even booked our date. And let me tell you, if we found a venue and a date and Rusty wasn't available, we would have absolutely changed our date.
Rusty has a very calming presence and you just know that he will get it right. He took our engagement photos, rehearsal dinner photos, wedding photos and we used his Photo Booth. Everyone from our families to guests raved about how great Rusty, Stephen and their crew was and how easy they were to work with.
He has a true gift for capturing moments, and making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. He really is the best and I can't say enough good things.
Our engagement and wedding photos are beautiful! Rusty is amazing to work with and has such an eye for photography. He met with me multiple times to create a timeline for the big day and even went to the venue two weeks prior to find the best spots to take our photos so the day of the wedding ran smoothly. Now, I can relive our wedding day through amazing photos he took. Thank you!
Rusty with Waldron Photograph Co. is top notch! Leading up to our wedding, he was in contact with us many times to get a feel for what we were looking to capture on our wedding day. On the wedding day, I essentially had no idea he was there which made things feel very authentic, yet he captured the most gorgeous images. He is extremely genuine and down to earth and could not make you feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Not to mention, he got a ton of highlight photos back to us by Sunday night after our Saturday wedding and had our entire wedding spread back to us within two weeks. Waldron is worth the investment for stellar photos that will last a lifetime!
The best decision we made! Where do I even begin?? Just like all of you I was researching for the top rated vendors in KC for our wedding, and after reading the countless 5 star ratings and reviewing their work we were over the moon when they were free for our wedding date! We live out state in Florida and planning the wedding in KC we knew we needed vendors we could count on- when we met Stephen for the first time we immediately felt comfortable- like talking to an old friend! You can tell that he has a passion for photography -- He was creative and truly wanted to get to know us as a couple during our engagement session! Even throughout the downtime of planning he always reached out with a quick email or text- making us feel like a priority. Stephen was such a calm presence the day of the wedding- thank you! He helped move the group along and was always smiling! Even the week after the wedding he sent us some sneak peeks. His turn around on the full set of photos was right on time and he even sent us a little box with printed photos and a thank you card! The small details mean a lot and Waldron Photograph Co is the real deal! :) Thank you for being such an easy and fun vendor to work with- Stephen, Thank YOU! - Sarah and Todd Lindquist
Rusty is a true professional and a genuinely good guy. His talent, personality and passion shine through his work and in his interactions with me and my wife. My wife and I are not at all accustomed to the spotlight, but Rusty somehow made the whole experience feel natural and easy. The photos came out incredibly well and fully captured the feeling of the whole weekend. We give our highest recommendation to this excellent photographer and human being!
BEST MONEY SPENT! Rusty is has a phenomenal ability to capture the candid and emotional moments as well as beautifully and artistically capture the classic wedding photos you desire. Not only does he take amazing photographs but he is a pleasure to work with and listens to everything you want and then delivers it through breathtaking photos. His ability to capture just what I wanted was right on point! Picking him as our wedding photographer was the best decision we made for our wedding and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again! His partner which was hired as our 2nd photographer was just as amazing too. People were just awestruck by our wedding photos and we received SO many compliments! They are everything I wanted and more!
Rusty is a joy to work with! He is so organized and efficient and, most importantly, great at his craft! My husband and I enjoyed every meeting as his very cool downtown Mission creative space and he truly made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. I would recommend him to anyone.
Rusty’s work is incredible. He was a pleasure to work with, and we are so happy with our photographs. His “blancbooth” was such a unique twist on a photobooth. I highly recommend Waldron!
Rusty is absolutely incredible!! He is so helpful throughout the whole wedding planning process. He goes above and beyond in every way! We would highly recommend Rusty!!
We hired Stephen to be our photographer for our wedding day and engagement photos - and I am SO glad we did! The Waldron Photography Co literally thought of everything (from the personal touches, help with wedding timeline, creative ideas) and we felt so comfortable working with him. We STILL receive countless compliments on our engagement and wedding photos a little over a year later. I cannot even explain how wonderful the experience was and if you are thinking about hiring him or Rusty - DO IT. You will not be disappointed!
I wholeheartedly recommend Rusty as a wedding photographer. When researching all of the options, I spent days on a countless photographers' websites, and Rusty's photos immediately caught my eye. They truly tell a story and many even brought me to tears. I figured tearing up looking at complete strangers' photos must be a good sign! At the end of it all ,I am so thrilled we chose Rusty to photograph our Brooklyn wedding. From beginning to end he was extremely professional, communicative, and a pleasure to work with. Our photos turned out phenomenal, and I've had a least five people come ask me who my photographer was because they want to book him now. Do not hesitate to work with The Waldron if you want a top notch photographer for such a special day!
Stephen just took our engagement photos and we are beyond thrilled. He is amazing! Now, we can hardly wait for him do to our wedding. Stephen is an A++++ photographer. You won't be disappointed!!
We absolutely love our photos from Rusty. From the moment we reached out to him to the day of our wedding to receiving the photos after, Rusty was professional, organized, detailed and thoughtful. We had a really long day, it being a Vietnamese wedding, but Rusty captured every moment beautifully. What we appreciated most was the ease at which he was able to get us comfortable in front of the camera for portraits, me especially being the one who usually dodges cameras. He was our favorite vendor and we would recommend him fully and will contact him again for any of our photography needs.
Photography was the most important item on our checklist when planning our wedding. If we were going to splurge it was going to be in this area. Photos last a lifetime!! When my husband and I found Waldron and looked through his portfolio we knew he was exactly what we were looking for. From there, we found out that he not only had amazing photos, but he was affordable and super personable. He captured all our favorite moments and made sure we had a blast along the way (no awkward poses, natural laughs, all you could ask for). I've never gotten so many compliments (and social media likes) in my life. Thank you times a million Waldron!!
Rusty was the #1 photographer on my list for our wedding. We are so thankful we could book him for our wedding and pre wedding events. He is extremely talented and an incredible listener. We are extremely happy with the outcome and I will highly recommend Rusty to anyone who is looking for a great photographer - you will not be disappointed. Thank you so much, Rusty!!
Rusty Wright is the most talented photographer out there! We were lucky enough to have him capture engagement pictures as well as our wedding day and we couldnt have asked for better pictures!! He's AMAZING! HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!
Rusty is incredible to work with -- he's talented, gracious with his time, and has wonderful ideas and creative input that go toward creating amazing photos. My wife and I couldn't be happier with our experience with Waldron and would highly, highly recommend them.
Rusty Wright of The Waldron Photograph Co. is not only an outstanding photographer, but an amazing human being as well. My husband and I were extremely fortunate to cross paths with Rusty and get to work with him on our engagement and wedding photos. He is kind, courteous, timely, and detailed. Rusty made us feel he genuinely cared about us and our journey. I highly recommend The Waldron Photograph Co. for any occasion, but especially an event as important as a wedding. Thank you, Rusty, for giving us amazing memories of 2016--what a great year!
Rusty exceeded our expectations in every way. In addition to being a gifted artist, he is also professional, prompt, and excellent with communication. He listened well and ensured we were on the same page every step of the way. We felt so confident on our wedding day knowing that he was behind the lens. His photos are breathtaking, and we will enjoy them for the rest of our lives. He goes above and beyond. We cannot thank him enough! HIGHLY recommend him.
Stephen was our photographer and we were beyond satisfied. He certainly exceeded our expectations. Very well organized, never wasted time at the event, promptly presented photos after our honeymoon, and we are thrilled with how they turned out. Stephen has the perfect blend of professionalism and charisma. I would recommend Stephen and his work to all.
We hired Rusty to photograph our wedding and to capture our engagement photos, and looking back we could not be more thrilled with that decision. Rusty captured every moment of the day more eloquently and with more imagination and creativity than we could have ever imagined. He paid every attention to the tiny details of our wedding day, and even acted as a pseudo "day of" wedding planner for a couple that admittedly needed it. He was more than flexible to accommodate any of our wishes and did so with a smile on his face. Our wedding party and family members gushed about his personality and thoughtfulness.
We met with Rusty on multiple occasions before the wedding and each time Rusty impressed us greatly with his preparation, attention to detail, flexibility and thoughtfulness. He was truly a pleasure to work with. He offered himself not only as a photographer, but as a consultant, planner and truly as a friend as well. As every future wife and husband knows, there is often times great stress involved with planning a wedding. Every time we met with Rusty we left feeling more confident than we were when we arrived.
We've received raved reviews about Rusty's work from friends and family. We truly believe that every moment of our special day was captured in the form of a unique photograph, and he offered every single one of them to us in the form of an electronic thumb drive...they are truly OUR photos.
We cannot more strongly recommend Rusty's work, nor can we thank him enough for his efforts. Thanks Rusty!
Rusty is a fantastic photographer and a wonderful person and we are so glad we choose him to be our wedding photographer. Throughout the pre-wedding planning he took care to learn about us as people, understand the types of pictures we wanted to capture, and quickly respond to any concerns or questions we had. When our big day finally came he helped coordinate all the pictures we requested and adapted to weather challenges with ease and reassurance! The pictures turned out beautifully and we could not be happier with our choice!!
Rusty photographed my daughter Cara and Matt's wedding on 10/14/16. I've only seen a sneak preview so far but those, along with the engagement photos he did, were so beautiful and beyond all expectation. He truly helps create memories for a lifetime. He is extremely organized and the utmost professional. I cannot thank him enough for being a part of our special event. Thank you!
To say Rusty is talented is the understatement of the century! He has an incredible eye and made our engagement and wedding pictures so incredibly special. We simply can not recommend him enough!
Words can't describe how honored we are to have had Rusty capture the best moments of our lives so far. From the first time we talked with him on the phone to meeting him in person, we knew that he was the only person we'd trust with these moments. He allowed us to tell our story through his vision, and we are beyond thankful! He truly is such a great person and it is apparent through his work. While he started off as our photographer, he ended up being a person we call a friend. I promise, you won't be sorry with choosing him.
Working with Rusty was hands down the best decision we made during wedding planning. His skill far surpasses any photographer I researched in the KC area, and it comes at such an incredible value. We had a fairly modest budget for our wedding, and Rusty was so willing to work with us to craft a package that was perfectly tailored to our needs at a totally reasonable price. He made us and our families feel so relaxed and comfortable on the big day and even took the time to do the little things like learn the names of all our family members (just through a list we gave him at our consultation and careful observation the day of the wedding - making group portrait people arranging much more personal and a breeze), and setting the itinerary for the wedding - ensuring everything ran smoothly and on-time. Rusty is incredibly professional, wildly talented, hyper-organized, overwhelmingly helpful, genuinely kind, and overall just a pleasure to work with - and we’re so glad we did.
Rusty is amazing. My husband and I joke that we wish he could have come on our honeymoon too, because the way he captures moments is breathtaking. He brings out the true candor in people, and does it effortlessly. We are forever grateful to have had him as our wedding photographer, and will tell anyone and everyone who is willing to listen that he is the best. Besides being ridiculously talented, he is so incredibly generous and went above and beyond in delivering us our photos. We love Rusty!
Finding a wedding photographer can be stressful but from the moment we met Rusty we knew he would be perfect for us. Not only are his photos outstanding but his calm, friendly, thoughtful personality made us immediately feel at ease. Rusty is extremely knowledgable and professional. We have the most beautiful memories of our wedding captured by him to look back on and for that we are extremely grateful.
Rusty is amazing!!! I can't say enough wonderful things about him! He is such a great guy and an amazing photographer. So easy to work with and goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable. All the little touches he adds to everything just made it so special. Thank you Rusty!!! -Maribeth
Rusty is so great, by far one of our favorite people to work with throughout the wedding planning process. He is so incredibly talented...I immediately knew I wanted him for our photographer! He is also very prompt with his responses via email, phone, etc which is so nice!!! I would recommend him to anyone!
Rusty is a true artist and delightful to work with! His photos speak for themselves. I looked at a lot of websites and photographer portfolios before I chose Rusty. You won't be disappointed in his work. The photos of my outdoor wedding in October in Missouri are simply stunning! I can't stop looking at them. And on top of being a fabulous photographer he is wonderful to work with. He is flexible, thoughtful, communicative, helpful, listens to his clients, and really goes the extra mile. I loved his attention to detail in his art and professionalism. Having Rusty at our wedding just felt like having another friend there. He captured the essence of our wedding in photos - I can't say enough, just fabulous!!
There are not enough nice things to say about Rusty and the Waldron Photograph Co! Choosing our photographer for our wedding felt like such a big decision for us, especially because we are both very camera shy. After meeting with Rusty, we knew we had made the right choice! Our engagement photos and wedding photos were perfect - both my husband and I agreed Rusty must have some voodoo photography magic that makes every one look great in photos. Rusty captured all of the best candid moments of the day and made all the formal family and bridal party photos with family go smoothly and quickly - a huge plus for everyone involved, as it was sticky and hot and sweaty for our outdoor July wedding. He is a perfect blend of professionalism and artistic, getting all of the photos he knew we wanted, and some we didn't know we wanted that turned out to be our favorites! The turnaround on our photos was incredible. Honestly, the worst part of it all was trying to decide which ones to get printed (our solution - print all of them!). The cherry on top of the cake is that Rusty is one of the nicest people we've met - he works to make you comfortable and relaxed about the entire process from the moment you meet him. We can't recommend Rusty enough!
