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.

Brian was wonderful! Very personable and professional! He got some really great shots - creative, elegant, in-the-moment. I was overwhelmingly pleased at his ability to handle my difficult family and get a good family shot of 'em. I had a ton of small children there and, again, was more than pleased at his ability and willingness to work with them and fight his way through all the craziness in the ready room to make sure he got all the important shots of me and maids. My husband was extremely pleased at how he worked with us for the couples shots.
Booking the photographer was the most stressful for me because its so important, its all you have to remember your day, and having gone to art school myself I have a few photographer friends who do weddings and I would never recommend them because I've seen their bad work (as opposed to the good ones that get put up on their site) and heard all their horror stories of their screw ups. I really scrutinized over the work on each website I looked at.
When I found Brian's site, I could tell right away that the quality of his work was exceptional. there's a big difference between a photo that has been "photoshopped" to look good and one that was taken by a talented professional. Brian's work is the latter. I can't say enough wonderful things about our whole experience with him. He is responsive to email and available for phone calls and meetings. He is flexible in pricing and service offerings.

Brian Ray Studios covered our wedding with complete profesionalism while providing casual and attentive service. He managed to capture all our important moments without being an intrusive photographer in our way. Our photos came out perfect and better than expected, he is highly recommended.

Brian Ray is an amazing photographer! He was very responsive to all of my emails and answered my many questions. He was very professional, yet fun and flexible to work with on the day of the wedding. He got our photos up online within days of shooting our wedding and was quick to send the DVDs. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding. It was one of the best decisions we made!

Brian Ray did a great job capturing the important moments at our wedding, including rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception.
Brian always arrived on time and even stayed beyond the agreed time to make sure he had our special evening covered! I can even say that Brian saved the night as he managed to sew up my bridesmaid dress when the zipper snapped.
Brian's rate were very reasonable, and I was able to negotiate a totally custom package based on the hours I needed him for.
Without being "in-your-face" like a lot of other wedding photographers are (as proof, I noted that Brian does not appear on ANY of the photos taken by our guests; that's true talent in my opinion: he was there without us seeing him!), Brian guided us so we would not miss any key picture moments, including a few portraits, even though we focused on non-posed shots and 'documentary style' photography.
The turnaround was unbelievable as well... The next day, so less than 24 hours after the wedding, the 700+ pictures were ready and loaded online! And they were all great; my guests complimented his work numerous time.
From the "engagement session" a few months earlier we were sold! And the final result did not disappoint, thank you Brian!
Bottom line: Brian knew what he had to do from the get go, in fact he even helped us make sure we would have all the pictures we wanted!
And the pictures turned out AMAZING!

We used Brian Ray as our wedding photographer, and it was a great decision! Brian is great. He's relaxed, prepared (he even gave me a granola bar on the way to the reception since I couldn't eat earlier in the day because of nerves), and he captured everything! At the reception everyone was joking that he never sat down for a minute. The pictures turned out great. We wanted a lot of candid shots and he got some great ones, along with some nice DC shots too. You can check out some of the photos here (sign in required): http://www.pictage.com/client//event.do?event=4813

His website is http://www.brianraystudios.com. I definitely recommend him!

Brian was the photographer for our wedding held on June 14th was he was WONDERFUL. Brian has a very creative eye but still managed to get the standard shots we wanted as well. I love each and every picture. Not only was he very professional, he was kind, helpful and laid back. You just can't ask for more! He arrived on time and stayed the entire length of the wedding, which many photographers do not do. By the time the honeymoon was over the pics were posted for all to see! :)

I highly recommend brian ray. He was easy to book and very accomoadating. He even met me at 6:30am for my TTD session so we could get the best shots. I sent him some ideas ahead of time and he made it a point to make sure we got the one's i really wanted. The on-line proofs were back to me in less than a week and once i ordered my prints they were there in about 2days. I had a great time with Brian and his assistant. My package was VERY affordable too. Overall i had a great TTD experience with Brian Ray studios!!

Brian was truly amazing. From before the wedding, during and after. He was very comfortable to work with and by the end of the wedding I felt as if he were part of the family! He was always very timely and responsive. Best of all, our pictures look great!
Looking for a photographer is very frustrating, especially when your cost conscious (and who isn't). I don't see how Brian could ever dissapoint; he's a very nice person, with a real talent.

We cannot rave enough about Brian as a photographer or his studio's product! From our initial meeting it was evident that Brian loves what he does, takes it seriously, and thinks about it as art. He is friendly, easy to work with, and very attentive and responsive. The studios prices could not be beat; his timeliness in getting the photos prepared and the disc to us was excellent; and the studio?s website/contracts (they do just about everything electronically) is easy to navigate and user friendly. At our wedding both he and his assistant got great shots without feeling intrusive; in fact many friends and family commented they were surprised at some of the photos because they couldn?t recall a photographer even being there! We later learned our venue was a photographer?s nightmare in terms of lighting challenges, but Brian and his assistant still made it work, and even somehow managed to make me look good in the process. We?ve recommended them to our friends, and would recommend them again.
