Best Wedding Photography Team

We are thrilled we chose Making the Moment (MTM) as our wedding photography team! They truly went above and beyond to capture every precious moment of our crazy Indian/Western fusion wedding weekend. Their creativity shone through in every shot, from the candid moments to the stunning Bollywood shots to the crazy dancing. The chemistry between us, Brett, Vince and the entire MTM team was incredible — They made us feel comfortable and at ease, allowing our true emotions to shine through in the photos. The pictures are wonderful, and we are forever grateful to MTM for their dedication and talent in preserving our memories so beautifully.

A must-book photographer for any event.

Brett, Shana, Katie, and the entire Making the Moment team are fantastic! We found them from a recommendation of our venue, The Arcade, and we could not be more grateful! The entire company is professional and responsive. Brett guided us through the entire process and worked with us to create a timeline of the day, making sure to get our input, as well as adding in his expertise. Everyone told us one of the most important things we'll have after the wedding are the photos, so be sure to get a good photographer. We certainly got the best! Brett was a joy to work with, and even better - the photos are everything we dreamed of and more! I can not recommend this company enough!

Could Not Recommend Making the Moment MORE!!

I could go on & on about Brett and the entire Making the Moment team. I mean, talk about the ultimate hype team! They made me feel so beautiful and calm. And I think the best part about working with them was that I never ever felt rushed or like I was on someone else's time. Anything I asked for, they made possible. My now-Husband and I first met with Brett in December of 2020 and had the most wonderful time chatting with him. From there, we did not look for a single other photographer. His work was exactly what we were looking for - timeless, artistic, unique and he has this amazing abaility to capture his couples in their purest form. I feel like our wedding portfolio (engagement session + full-day coverage of our wedding) perfectly captures my relationship and I couldn't be more grateful to them for being there on our day. It just felt like we were hanging out with our friends all day with Brett and his team.
