About

Experience is everything when is comes to wedding photography. You need someone who has the experience to know where to be and when to be there to capture that special moment. I have been shooting weddings professionally full time for over 20 years. I have shot over 1000 weddings. I will tell your wedding story in a breath-taking and fresh way without being obtrusive. I am a dedicated artist passionate about my work and I will tell your wedding story the way you imagined. My 20 years of experience will make your special day easy and fun!

You will have unlimited printing rights to all of your photos forever. I will host all of your images online to view, download and print. You can share all of your images with all of your family and friends online if you wish. You will also receive 4 sets of disks with the full HD resolution of the camera. You will receive a 4x6 print of the highest quality of every image. You will also receive an arranged photo album with 300 prints.

All of your images will be professionally edited for the best quality and artistic look. This means the photos will be retouched, cropped, color corrected skin tones, exposure corrected, color enhanced, and artistically process for an amazing result. Included are Black & White Sepia Tone images and some Black & White with a touch of color. I include a combination of all styles of photography from fun and artistic to Journalist and Traditional.

I will be the one to shoot your wedding not someone I have hired and all of the work you see is mine. I am fun and energetic and work from the minute I arrive until the end of the reception. All of my packages are unlimited time "I don't want to miss a thing."


Questions to ask the photographer.

Best Photographer In The World!

Dean is the Best! He captured beautiful pictures of my wedding. Professional from the beginning to the end. I can’t stop looking at the pictures. His cost is very reasonable and the quality of his pictures are superb. I’ve posted some of the pictures on Facebook and my husband and I are receiving so many compliments. Thank you again Dean for capturing our special day,

Highly recommend this photographer!

Dean is the absolute best. Not only is he extremely talented and knowledgeable but he’s well prepared with an awesome personality that enhances your wedding day. He is so easy to work with, responds quickly, takes the time to review any special photos you want taken prior to the day and then is also good with taking requests on the spot for different poses for photos. He made sure to watch his time to delicately capture the perfect shots and he was also very affordable! I highly recommend Dean, you won’t be disappointed!!

Dean is/was awesome! He really knows what he's doing. Our pictures and album came out amazing! He knew exactly how to really get the details of my dress to stand out, I had no idea the bottom of my dress could look the way it did. He's so on top of his emails, text, and all phone communications. He was so patient with myself and the family the day of the wedding, I know there was a lot of chaos going on, but he was able to get those great in the moment shots. The best part was, we got our link to our pictures within days after the wedding, we were able to look at them while on our honeymoon, which was awesome! We ended up upgraded our package from the link to the photo album and CD's. He tried to save us money, but we were too busy to print or uploaded the CD's ourselves. It wasn't a bad decisions on our part though, and very inexpensive for what you get. The album is perfect! He made sure all the pictures are going to exact way, so you're not flipping the album back and forth. He also provided extra CD copies for FREE! Who doesn't like free? Thank you Dean!!! We'll be admiring our wedding pictures for the rest of our lives together. - The Brazil's

Dean with Elegant Visions did both our engagement and wedding photos, both of them turned out phenomenal! Dean has been in the industry a long time and it definitely shows with his expertise and quality work. He was very punctual on both occasions and was even willing to drive to the hotel where my bridesmaids and I were getting ready before the wedding to take pictures. The hotel was about 25 minutes from the venue so it wasn't a quick drive across the street.

He covered every aspect of our special day and we couldn't be more thrilled. Some of the unique shots he took are completely breath taking and the amount of outstanding comments we have received are truly special. Everyone always says their wedding photos are amazing, but ours are more than that. They are outstanding. The angles, lighting, editing, filters are all top notch.

He was professional, friendly and efficient with all the family and bridal party photos, so everyone still had a chance to enjoy cocktail hour before dinner started. Which I'm sure they all appreciated! He is very prompt at returning the photos as well, we received over 800 photos back in just a couple weeks. The price he charges for what you get is unbeatable. You will pay almost double that anywhere else you go.

We highly recommend Dean with Elegant Visions for your wedding photographer!

This experience with Dean was fantastic. The pricing was very reasonable. We enjoyed the fact that he was unlimited time so we were able to go to a park for more shooting after the wedding. All the pictures were great, I liked his editing. He’s got a wonderful skills to make your big day special yet didn’t need too much time to publish a link to review all the photos. 2 low resolution discs and 1 high relsolution disc came in without paying extra. Great guy!!

I cannot say enough about how pleased we were with Dean. He did an amazing job and had our photos to us within days! I actually got to see them while on our Honeymoon! He was flexible, energetic, knew just the right angles at The Garden Room to make sure the billion mirrors didn't flash back and that if there was a reflection that it was the perfect angle. He caught amazing moments during the wedding and my favorites are when he used this tall extender thing to get shots of everyone dancing and laughing! We also did a shoot after at the beach for "sunset" pictures in our wedding attire but unfortunately there wasn't a sunset. He offered to reschedule at no charge but we went thru with the shoot anyway and had so much fun - he actually got me to lay down in the sand! He said he is going to digitally put in a sunset because of all the times he has shot there before and no extra charge for the extra work that takes! I am so pleased and we had so much with him and he was so patient with all of us (especially me who was a little bit of a cranky bride at times). PLEASE do yourself a favor and hire Dean - you won't be disappointed!
