Garret Ward is the best wedding photographer!

Garret is the best! He is super sweet and accommodating of your vision when you’re getting to know him and planning ahead of the big day. As for the photos, he’s so talented at not only taking the pictures but helping you to pose and making everything look right in the background to make photos the best they can be. He was like a ninja the way he moved around our venue and captured every single angle so beautifully. We loved working with him and he was an instrumental part of our wedding day. We are absolutely blown away by the photos he took. 10/10 would recommend him for all weddings and occasions!

Fantastic from start to finish

Garret Ward was absolutely amazing! When picking vendors for our wedding, Garret was our top and only choice for photography. He was always there to help with any questions and was incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. The photos he and his second shooter, Tania, captured were truly fantastic. Working with them was a breeze, and they played a significant role in making our wedding day unforgettable. The turnaround time for the pictures was a huge bonus as well! A true professional - HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Excellent wedding photographer!

When we first got engaged, we knew our engagement and wedding photos were going to be a priority. Someone recommended we reach out to Garret, and we knew right away after the first Zoom call that we wanted to work with him for our special events. Garret ended up taking our engagement and wedding day photos and we are incredibly happy with how everything turned out. He was always friendly, professional, down-to-earth, and easy to work with. We are both camera shy, but each time we worked with him he was able to make us feel comfortable and at ease.

He was able to find a second shooter, Nick, and they made a great team on our wedding day. Garret and Nick (who we jokingly call our photography ninjas) seemed to be able to be in several places at once on our wedding day, capturing photos of each part of the day from many angles, seamlessly and stealthily. Looking back at the wedding day pictures, we wondered how there were so many photos of so many guests and moments during the time that they had to work with.

We couldn’t believe how quickly we received both our engagement and wedding photos after they were taken. Garret provided us with so many memories of the day’s moments and each picture is high quality and looks beautiful. We would recommend Garret to anyone looking for the absolute best photographer in the area!

Garret is not only one of the best photographers I have worked with he is a genuine person who loves being a photographer. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with him at numerous weddings and look forward to more in the near future. If you are in the market for a photographer please take the time to talk with Garret, you will see how down to earth he is and how his skills to capture the moments are hard to beat.
