Gary Law is a family friend that has provided a variety of photo services to us for many years. I first knew of Gary when my aunt was married back in 1991, and he did the wedding photos. He came to the house to do the bridal party portraits, and then did some really great photos of my aunt's wedding in the church and at the reception site.

In the years after my aunt's wedding, Gary did some family portraits for us in our home, and also did commercial photography for my dad's restaurant.

15 years later, come time for my wedding, we didn't even have to think of a photographer -- Gary was automatically our choice. I'd always known Gary as an acquaintance of my dad, but working with him as our photographer was truly a wonderful experience.

We were engaged 1.5 years out so we were able to give Gary a lot of notice...and we were able to secure him before anyone else did! Throughout the engagement Gary met with us in person and was extremely responsive by email. We did family/wedding party portraits in his home studio, family ceremony in our hotel room, and then he photographed wedding ceremony and reception, which was aboard a yacht.

Gary does research to make sure that he is familiar with his surroundings before the actual photo day. The studio portraits were taken the weekend before the wedding, which is where Gary learns your angles and gets to know you a little better. Gary is very easy to work with. He's fast, funny, and he makes you feel at home with him. It's not awkward, and you can ask him questions or give him suggestions.

My parents are divorced and he was very sensitive to that. He's good with names, and has a great upbeat demeanor about him. He's extremely professional, and very fast! Our wedding ceremony was aboard a 3-deck yacht, included surprise performances by the groom, and Gary was able to capture it all! He accomplished all this with just 1 assistant.

Post wedding, Gary was quick to turn around proofs and the wedding album. Our wedding album is BEAUTIFUL -- we just got it last week -- and it shows Gary ability to visualize. There were a few pictures that Gary took during the wedding that we didn't understand...but when they show up in the album, you see what his mind was thinking!

Gary takes true pride in his work, which showed in his eagerness to show us the final album. He is just a great person to work with, and we highly recommend him to anyone!
