As the bride and groom, we wanted to capture the fleeting, unforgettable moments of our big day as we’ve been told it goes by in the blink of an eye! We were fortunate enough to receive a recommendation from our wedding venue, Norfolk Botanical Gardens, for an incredibly talented photographer, Dustin Lewis, who exceeded our every expectation! What struck us most about Dustin was his ability to capture the pure essence of the true happiness we felt and the fun moments that occurred throughout the wedding day! His attention to detail and artistic eye brought out the small, tender moments that may have been overlooked.
Dustin was not only a master behind the camera, but also a true professional. He arrived on time, maintained a friendly and approachable demeanor, and made us feel truly at ease throughout the whole day! His level of communication is impeccable as he was always willing to answer a text, email or call whenever we had a question, so we knew we were in good hands the day of the wedding. As two camera shy individuals, Dustin pushed us to be our best selves by giving us confidence and coaching us to do so! No matter how ridiculous we may have looked, we never once felt embarrassed. He was a true champion throughout our outdoor wedding, on July 12th, in Virginia! He suggested many different ideas and shots, which ended up becoming some of our favorite pictures from the day.
We’ve received our full wedding gallery and we’re absolutely blown away by the level of craftsmanship and artistry. Each new image we see as we scroll through is a true work of art that evokes the joy and tenderness we experienced during those precious moments. Dustin managed to encapsulate those emotions and create timeless memories that we will cherish forever! Working with Dustin has been an absolute pleasure from our engagement photo shoot to the end of the wedding day. His exceptional talent, professionalism, and dedication to his craft makes him a stand out choice in the world of photography! We wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone seeking extraordinary photographs and an unforgettable wedding day! - The Canavoses

Dustin was recommended to us by some friends who had him as their photographer. He was very responsive and flexible with our giant wedding shot list! My husband and I absolutely loved our photos and he captured the night perfectly. We wanted pictures that were classy but also some fun pictures and Dustin gave us the PERFECT mix of this! Dustin made all of the pictures comfortable, natural, and fun! We love all of our photos.

We contracted Dustin Lewis Images for our wedding photography. Dustin is extremely professional and experienced! His services were very reasonably priced and all of the photos turned out amazing! I highly recommend the Dustin Lewis Images for your wedding or event!

Wedding on July 13th, 2024 at Norfolk Botanical Garden

I couldn't be more pleased with hiring Dustin to do our elopement photography. The price was great and the quality of photos was absolutely wonderful. We had Dustin photograph our ceremony and some on-site couple's portraits, for a total of an hour. The quality of service we recieved, to work with him and the photos, was truly beyond what we imagined for the hour.

Dustin really fit nicely into our wedding day. He was incredibly comfortable to work with, easy to communicate with, very responsive, timely, and really understood our vision.

Our entire collection of photos were delivered quickly and we even got some wonderful previews within days. I would definitely recommend Dustin, especially for elopement-style and simple ceremonies!

If you are in the Hampton Roads Area you need to book Dustin!! Beyond being amazing at his craft, Dustin is such a genuine person and helps you relax behind the camera. The thing I love the most about Dustin is if you show him your vision/vibe you're going for he will make sure he executes it. He even encourages you to show him your inspo pictures if you have them. He truly captured many genuine and beautiful moments at my wedding which meant so much for me and my husband, because 90% of our guests traveled from out of state, so it may be years before we can capture moments with certain friends and family. We look forward to Dustin capturing all our memorable moments in the future! #maternityshootnext

You won’t go wrong with Dustin Lewis! So kind, so focused, so professional yet he felt like family. Thank you Dustin for making our day great!! Excellent work.

Awestruck! This is how we felt when hubby and I saw our wedding photos and we still are a week later every time we look at them. Dustin was a pleasure to work with and incredibly kind, attentive to detail, present for all moments while also easily blending in, spoke up to the encourage capture of special moments, and snapped moments that I was too busy to notice on the day-of so that I could appreciate even more of our special day through his capture of other perspectives. His pricing is VERY good and quality is WORTH IT! He will be responsive to your requests and respond in a timely manner. Be prepared to absolutely adore your wedding day all over again through his incredible photographs! It was a dreary and cloudy day and yet Dustin managed to find a break in the rain and used pop-up lighting to ensure we got the outdoor photos we so desperately wanted and the backdrop was spectacular!

Thank you Dustin Lewis Photography for capturing the best day of our lives and allowing us to relive it through your pictures everyday!

Dustin Lewis made our Big Day so easy. His work is beautiful, he is very flexible and professional, and he made us feel at ease. When we requested changes in our package and changes in the dates of our photo sessions, Dustin didn't hesitate to do whatever he could to help. If you have any special needs, ie age, health issues, heat/cold intolerance, pets, children, shyness...whatever, he can help you make your memories the very best.

Dustin was always very quick and responsive, thorough, and great to work with! He had a very calming presence, and was helpful with our engagement and wedding photos! He even allowed us to do two different locations for our engagement photos! We just got our wedding photos back, and they're beautiful! It even came in a lovely box with an engraved USB drive!! His attention to detail is definitely noticed! Our photos have a very timeless look, which is exactly what I wanted! Can't recommend enough!!

Dustin is simply AMAZING. From discovering his work at another venue, to our first phone call, our first meeting, and all the way through wedding day & night, he was the absolute best choice we could have made. We were quite the rowdy bunch, and we had SO much fun with Dustin because HE had fun with us! He rolled with all of our craziness while remaining knowledgeable, professional, focused and intentional. Not only was he determined to get the shots that we wanted but he also made sure that we were having the most amazing day the entire time. He is so much more than just a photographer! He truly created an experience for us with memories that will last a lifetime. And the photos (these are just sneak peaks!) are to DIE for. Dustin, we cannot thank you enough for the most perfect day!!!!!!
