Channing was fantastic every step of the way. From taking us out for drinks at a cozy tavern to look at his portfolio and talk about our wedding vision, to disappearing in the crowd on the big day, leaving us to later wonder, "How did he get that shot?!" We hardly even noticed he was there. He was unobtrusive and laid back, but still on-the-ball, capturing every important moment when we needed him. We are both newspaper reporters, and we knew we wanted to someone who would approach our wedding with a photojournalist's eye. Channing came highly recommended from another award-winning photographer with whom I worked, and he did not disappoint. If you want a hundred artsy shots of the two of you gazing into each other's eyes (or peeking out from behind a tree, as one vendor seriously suggested) this is not your guy. If you want your photos to tell the story of your wedding day, from start to finish, Channing will provide you with hundreds of photos that accurately capture the mood and the moments and the people that made your day special. Although Channing's 8-hour photo package doesn't include prints or an album (those cost extra) he turns over every single one of his digital pictures on an external hard drive, so they're yours forever.

Channing was one of our favorite vendors to work with. We had been double-booked by a previous photographer, so we were double, triple-checking his availability...I'm sure to the point of aggrivation! Photography was so important to us...Channing is our age (late 20's) and is a photojournalist...he loves capturing candid moments, which we loved. In fact, we had very few posed pictures...and the photographs are stunning. I get so many compliments, and it was such a positive experience working with him!

Channing is a talented photographer, with a great eye for color, light, and catching people having a fantastic time. He doesn't rely on gimmicks to make an interesting photo. Our wedding pictures are absolutely gorgeous, and everyone who has seen them has complimented them. On top of that, Channing was a great person to have around during the wedding and in the sometimes-hectic months leading up to it!

Channing was referred to us by friends who knew him from his newspaper staff photographer days. After checking out his website we were very excited to meet him as his editorial style was exactly what we were looking for. He accommodated our schedule and met us at a time and location that was very convenient for us. After chatting with him for a bit I knew that his personality, demeanor, and professionalism were precisely what I wanted in the person who would be capturing some of the most important moments throughout the wedding day. Channing was accessible during the planning process and even met with us in person a couple weeks before the wedding day to go over some final details we wanted to discuss. The day of the wedding he unobtrusively captured some intimate moments of us with our family and respective wedding parties getting ready for the ceremony; some wonderful moments that I didn’t even realize happened until I saw his pictures. His knowledge of lighting and shadows made for some beautiful images but his eye for capturing candid moments that tell the story of the day is what we (and our families) were beyond impressed with. He somehow managed to capture the day without us realizing he was right there. The icing on the cake was that he emailed us the link to our slideshow and online gallery while we were on our honeymoon so we were able to relive the wedding day as soon as we got home; the only thing better than getting to see the photographs so soon were the photographs themselves.

Channing Johnson rocks our world. He was the photographer at our wedding and did a truly amazing job-many of the guests told us that these were the best wedding photos they'd ever seen. Here are the top reasons to pick Channing:
1. He has an interesting viewpoint from which he shoots candids-picks great moments and scenes from the day
2. He is polite, funny, professional, and personable
3. He did a great job seeming unassuming and out of the way while getting the best shots
4. He gave us a great deal on two days of photography-we got for two days what most couples only get for one
5. He was flexible on the day of, had a very calming effect on me, and was very helpful driving us around to see different people to get different pictures during preparations!
6. He give you all of the photos, and does not make you pay for copyright ownership, which is awesome. We had something like 2300 photos to choose from in a well-designed website. We had the photos before the end of our honeymoon which we left for right after the wedding!
7. He was prompt in being where he said he'd be as well as in email correspondence and payment confirmation-which is rare these days in some parts of the wedding vendor world!!
We highly recommend him for his artistic ability, professionalism, value and delivery. Good luck on your wedding and for a great time pick Channing!
