Brian is a fantastic photographer and the perfect choice for our day. He photographed a wedding a close friend was in and she only had great things to say.

We aren't a couple with a ton of pictures so we were concerned that we wouldn't look "natural" on our big day as we weren't used to be in front of the camera. We met him during our engagement session (which I highly recommend), those photos came out so nicely and it was great get to know each other before the wedding day.

We got rain on our NYC wedding day but Brian had a perfect rain plan in Grand Central and the photos turned out stunning. We even got a few outside that had the best light. All our guests loved him and commented how beautiful the photos came out. He was a fantastic add to our wedding vendor list, highly recommend!

Brian is the BEST decision we made; he’s simply amazing. He brought such a warm personality and this subtle sense of humor that matched our energy perfectly and made us feel so comfortable taking photos. What immediately struck us about Brian during our initial engagement shoot and then on our wedding day was his ability to make us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. He directed us during the more formal shots, providing just the right amount of guidance to make sure we looked our best (we needed it) - while still allowing our personalities to come through. The day of the wedding, he and his partner Fady were the vendors we interacted with the most and the people we were with when all the pre-wedding jitters were first starting to hit. He was so incredibly calm and normal while still maintaining the utmost professionalism…I can’t emphasize how important it is to have that energy on your wedding day.

If all that wasn’t already enough, the final results were nothing short of breathtaking. Brian captured the wedding day so beautifully and took all of our requests seriously. We wanted candid shots of our wedding guests throughout the day, and a “fly on the wall” presence during the ceremony - and he absolutely got that for us. NOBODY likes an intrusive lens in your face, especially on your wedding day. Brian managed to become invisible once the wedding started; nobody recalls seeing him at the ceremony, on the dance floor, or during the speeches…and yet, all the pictures prove he was right there capturing everything, from the most tender of moments to the wildest dance moves.

In short, we could not recommend Brian Hatton enough. He is talented, funny, personable, and professional, and he captured our special day with stunning photos that we will treasure for years to come.

At this point, Brian is an institution with our family and friends. He was the wedding photographer at my sister’s wedding in 2016 and at my wedding at the Buttermilk Falls Inn and Spa in September 2023. We’ve recommended him to countless friends and family because he does such an incredible job.

On the day, he is very professional. He has a great handle on the details, is very efficient, and coached us through our awkwardness to get some incredible photos. Outside of the standard first look and family photos, he did a great job at capturing special moments throughout the day and night. We couldn't be happier with how our photos turned out and will continue to recommend Brian to everyone we know!
