Brian Ray Studios was awesome. I couldn't have been happier with the pictures - in fact I cannot stop looking at them. The album they made for us is incredible. I highly recommend Brian Ray. You won't be disappointed!!!!

Words can not even describe how awesome our wedding pictures are. Brian is by far the best photographer i could ever recommend for someone. It didn't even seem like he was at the wedding at all. He was never in anyone's way or dragging us away to do other pics. His style of photography just really clicked with us. Our wedding pics are absolutely beautiful.

We are ecstatic to have had the opportunity to work with Brian Ray for our engagement and wedding photos. His work is so artistic and he has a knack for capturing the essence of great moments. We knew from our engagement photos and his previous work that our wedding photos would be phenomenal but the pictures greatly exceeded our expectations. We wholeheartedly recommend Brian Ray Studios!

Brian and his 2nd photographer photographed our wedding in the exact way we wanted. He is nothing short of AMAZING. Brian is very professional, and very easy to talk to. I felt completely confortable in his abilities to capture the photos and overall look I was trying to achieve. I would recommend Brian Ray to everyone who wants professional, and most of all fun photos that capture the feel on your special day.

Throughout our planning process, both my (now) husband and I admitted that Brian Ray was the only vendor with which we had no concerns or hesitations. If fact, after when we first met Brian last June, we immediately cancelled our other two photography appointments that week and booked him. Brian did both our engagement pictures and wedding pictures, and we simply could not be happier with how they all turned out! Brian is very personable and easy to work with. Everyone (guests and members of the wedding party) mentioned how he was so polite and easy to work with. He makes you feel comfortable, which makes pictures turn out so much more natural looking! He takes an ordinary shot and makes it extraordinary! We have gotten endless compliments on our wedding pictures. Again, we could not be more pleased. Brian was extremely reliable and unbelievably efficient. He had our engagement pictures on a personalized CD within 24 hours, and he went out of his way to drop them off at my work! Our wedding pictures were available online within a week and the CD was in our hands in just over a week. I would highly recommmend Brian to anyone...pictures are the only thing you can keep after the wedding is all said and done. You will not be disappointed with his work or with his service!!

When I initially inquired with Brian about shooting our wedding, he quickly informed me that he was booked but worked with another photographer that would be be available. He referred us to Marilyn DiMarco and we couldn't have been happier! She was responsive and her style is great! She took fantastic pictures and we are so happy with her work. Work with Brian and his team and you won't be disappointed!!

Brian is an amazing photographer who really enjoys his craft! Within just a few minutes of meeting Brian and reviewing his work; I knew I did not need to look further. On wedding day, we were so comfortable having him around (not that it mattered b/c often I didn't realize he was there). The pics turned out better than I could have imagined and he really captured the essence of every moment. By the time we returned from our honeymoon, Brian had already emailed us our pics. Everyone who has looked at them say they are the best they have seen!! His artistic eye captured the beauty of the day and he seemed to have fun doing it :)

After initially speaking with Brian it was clear that the pictures on his website, his flexibility and style were truly a match for my husband and myself. Unfortunately Brian was not able to photograph our wedding, instead he sent his associate Marilyn DiMarco. Marilyn was AMAZING to work with! The pictures that she took captured not only the events of our wedding, but truly captured the emotion. The photojournalistic style mixed with the more traditional pictures that we requested were perfect! Brian edited all the pictures, put together our DVD photo album and did an outstanding job. The pictures were so incredible I don't know how we are going to narrow down our pictures to pick only 50 for our album!

Brian Ray Studios was a awesome to work with. He was so quick to repond to my initial inquiry, and we met with him right away. Unfortunately, he was booked for our weding day, but recommended a photographer, Marilyn Dimarco, who also work with him. She was great! When friends looked at our photographes online, they could see exactly how the day played out. They said the photographes really told the story of the day. Brian did all the touchup and made the dvd. He was always so quick to repond to any questions we had, and we are very happy with the choice we made.

It was a pleasure working with both Brian and Marilyn!

When looking for my wedding photographer I came across Brian Ray Stuidos. After viewing photos on his website and meeting Brian I was more than impressed. The price was right where I needed it and his work seemed amazing. I booked Brian in April for my wedding in November. We did engagment pictures that confirmed his work being amazing. My wedding day I had 2 photographers; Brian and his associate were more than wonderful!!! They both went above and beyond on my day and my pictures turned out fantastic. I would recommend anyone to use him!!!

I enjoyed all the pictures that Brian took. Every picture he took was spectacular. The only fallback that i has is that i did not have enough picture of myself and my maid of honor, but that may have been my fault bc i was all over the place that day. I just would have liked to of had more. Each picture had its own unique touch to it, and it was truely amazing!!

AFFORDABLE :-)

Brian was very approachable and helped us find the right solution with our tight budget. He was professional and quite knowledgeable. I liked how Brian took charge and gathered the entire wedding party together for our pictures. It's so easy to be caught up with friend and family that you forget the professional portraits and professional formal shots. Everyone liked Brian and the quality of his work is truly tremendous. I'm sooo glad I found Brian. He made the photographic memories of our wedding day so very special.

Oh my god… Brian. AWESOME is the word that comes to mind. I found him after a lot of searching, and fell in love with his pictures on his website. Out of the 20 or so photographers that I contacted, he was the one person that I really wanted, but never thought that I could afford to have. At the time that I contacted him, he was new to the area; he had just moved here from CT. He called me within 2 hours of my email, and was willing to work within my budget, so I booked him on the spot. On the day of the wedding, I barely saw him, but he was everywhere. He had asked me to send him a list of pictures that I wanted, but I never got around to it, which I feel kinda bad about, because he didn’t have much direction, however, he didn’t seem to miss much of anything. I am in love with my pictures, and can’t stop looking at them. He posted about half our pictures on the website within 1 week of the wedding, and I am getting all of the pictures on DVD soon. All total, there are almost 900 pictures, and we didn't even book him for the entire day. If you would like to check out some of his work, here are some of my wedding pictures. www.pictage.com/521266 It will ask you to sign the guestbook first.
