    10/10 Would Recommend!

    Terri did an amazing job! She is an outstanding photographer, really made us feel comfortable around her, and was very accommodating. We sent her a photo "wish list" in advance and she made sure to check every box. She did great work and although it was pouring rain the day of our photo shoot she wasn't deterred at all! We love our photos (which were delivered promptly) and would work with Terri again without hesitation.

    Best photographer ever!

    Terri was amazing to work with! She captured our wedding day beautifully. She was intentional about understanding our vision and communicated well with us. Our photos were perfect and we loved them. There wasn't a single picture we didn't like.

    Amazing Photographer!!!

    Terri was amazing! She made us feel so comfortable from our initial meeting to our engagement shot and eventually our wedding day! The moments she captured during our wedding day helped my husband and I relive beautiful moments! She definitely catches those shots you will cherish for a lifetime!

    Terri Baskin is Amazing!

    When we chose Terri for our wedding photographer we knew there was something special about her and we loved her photography style. We felt she was a good fit for us and we knew she would make us look great as well as provide lasting memories from our wedding that we would still cherish many years from now. Our instincts about her were correct and she is so talented and professional, her photos were exactly what we wanted. She is also just a really nice caring person which was evident from our first meeting with her and she is truly a pleasure to work with! I highly recommend her for anyone who wants the best photographer and who wants to look and feel their best on their wedding day! Thanks so much Terri, we will be forever grateful to you!

    Incredible Photographer 10/10

    Terri is a photographer that was suggested to us by our wedding planner. Once I reviewed her Instagram account I was immediately hooked. I told my planner if Terri was available we would absolutely love to work with her because her work speaks for itself. Terri is incredibly personable and creative. She can really capture you in the best lighting. Terri also helps you with posing so you don’t have to think so hard, and that also makes the shoot more comfortable. Terri is so professional and ridiculously talented. The value and quality of her work and skillset is worth every dollar and then some.

    My now husband and I first met Terri at our engagement shoot. We all instantly connected at the shoot and became friends more than just clients. She made us feel so comfortable and the entire day was so much fun. Terri works hard for you and makes sure that she gets you some really good shots. She has so much vision when it comes to her photographs. She will see a landscape or a pose and be like, “stand right there and look that way.” And then boom somehow you have this amazingly epic photo that you couldn’t have imagined would look as good as it does. That is artistry right there.

    Our wedding day was even more amazing. Terri must be incredibly organized because it really felt like she was in 100 places at once, and was able to capture every moment of our wedding by herself. That is proper planning and execution at its finest. After perusing our full gallery I couldn’t really understand how she did it all and captured every aspect of the wedding with so much craftsmanship. When we saw the sneak peeks we knew the entire gallery was going to be amazing, and it was.

    I can’t stress enough how important and worthwhile a qualified photographer is to capture your wedding day or any special moment in your life. Photography and videography were two things I could not skimp on and I am thrilled and blessed to say Terri really delivered when it came to showcasing our love story. I can relive my wedding day through her lens and that really means so much to me. I am so thankful for Terri and my wedding planning team. They made this experience so special for me and my husband. We can’t thank them enough so we will try to do so by HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDING them! 10/10 highly recommend!!!!! If you want a thoughtful, creative, professional, kind, motivational photographer who builds people up around her, go with Terri! :)

    We #stucklikeglue now because we will def book again!

    Exceptional!

    Terri is a vendor that I used for my engagement shoot. I had her on my radar for years before I was engaged because she did my cousins wedding in 2017. I just knew when I did get engaged I definitely wanted to use her. Not only was she professional at all times, but she made me feel comfortable on the other side of the lens and captured my fiance and I in the most elegant, fun, and stylish way. Her expertise outshines in every shoot that I've seen her do and every couple she snaps is special because she makes you feel that way. Thanks again Terri! An absolute blessing :-)

    Great experience

    Terri Baskin was very personable and took the time to meet virtually a couple times before my wedding day to discuss the event and what I was looking for. Everything turned out perfect. She is very talented and the photos came out amazing. Would highly recommend

    Exceptional!

    Terri is truly gifted. Her kindness, her artistic brilliance, and her attention to detail made our photos tell our fairytale. We eloped so we knew the photos had to be outstanding. She exceeded all expectations. I am thrilled Terri told our story and we will have a lifetime to cherish our photos.

    Top Decision of our wedding!

    Terri's presence is a ray of sunshine and her work is absolutely spectacular! From our first time meeting her at our engagement shoot, we were made instantly comfortable and felt confident. Our wedding day pictures were simply amazing! She was easy to work with and fun to be around. We hope to use her in the future for other events!

    Terri is the best!

    Hiring Terri Baskin was the best decision we made during wedding planning. Her photography is incredible and beautiful. My husband and I do not like being the center of attention, and she made us feel so comfortable and ensured that our engagement session and wedding session were fun and easy. Her direction and bubbly personality allowed us to feel ourselves. We loved having her be a part of our day and time. She took the time to get to know us, advised us on what to wear for the engagement session, and answered every question we had. Terri is a consummate professional but knows how to make everything fun. If you want stunning photos taken by a fun, professional, and generally wonderful person, hire Terri!!!

    Professional, Passionate, Perfect!

    I met Terri Basking a little over 3 years ago. She was the wedding photographer for my best friend's wedding and I served as the Maid of Honor. The first thing that captured my attention was her positive energy. By the end of the day, Terri felt more like a friend instead of a photographer. Fast forward 2 years later my fiance and I were booking her for our engagement shoot. Terri exudes professionalism and is very passionate about her work. She has the ability to make anyone feel comfortable in front of her lens all while making sure that you are having the time of your life. There was not a time during our engagement shoot or wedding day that we were worried about how we would pose or if we were positioned awkwardly because Terri had us covered. This was by far one of the best decisions that my husband and I made during our wedding planning journey. We are so glad that we found our forever photographer and we can't wait to work with Terri again to help us document our future milestones.

    #BecomingBuchanan 8/1/2020

    Terri is the GOAT. She is the consummate professional. I will never forget our call on the day we postponed our wedding. The level of empathy she showed, the check in video, and the swiftness in which she provided additional wedding dates was truly unmatched. Our photos are breathtaking and shall I dare say the best engagement and wedding photos I've ever seen. Terri goes above and beyond and for that I'm forever thankful. She is now our unofficial family photographer!

    Phenomenal

    Working with Terri was one of the best experiences I’ve had hands down. Throughout of entire wedding shoot, Terri kept us laughing and full of energy. She takes the time to get the perfect image and the best angles that work for you. Terri even considers any inspiration one might have for photos. It was truly a pleasure working with someone who was patient, funny and great to be around. I will continue to use Terri in the future.

    Absolute Perfection!

    We used Terri to capture the proposal, and our wedding, which included an engagement shoot (in NYC). Our photos were stunning, and told a beautiful story. In each picture the lighting and angles were perfect. She was very patient and got every shot we requested. Thanks to Terri, we have memories to cherish for a lifetime. I can’t speak highly enough of Her. She is worth every penny. We would use her again in a heartbeat.

    Dont think twice about booking her. Worth every penny!

    Terri!!!! Where do we begin when it comes to describing how perfect of a photographer she was for our entire wedding experience. From our engagement shoot up until the end of our wedding day, she exceeded our expectations with the quality of services she received. Not only was she pleasant to work with, flexible, and professional, but she produced the highest quality of work. Our wedding album came back phenomenal and I am so glad we made the right choice in choosing her as our photographer. These photos will last a lifetime, just like our love.

    She Is The Absolute Best There Is!

    From the initial contact until the end, Terri is the consummate professional! I can not began to convey how pleased we are with the service she provided for my daughter’s wedding. She knows how to capture beautiful moments and her photographs truly tell the story of our evening celebrating our daughter and new son-in-law. I highly recommend Terri!

    Auh-maze-ing! To die for

    The absolute first vendor I chose was Terri! Before I had a planner, before Hubby decided to chime in, before anyyyything else was figured out. I KNEW I wanted one person for sure with me on the day and that was you! I remember I was in store and you were driving and all I could think was “yup, yup whatever you’re saying is fine with me..send me my bill, cause I want it all before someone else gets it” lol . Months later I learned Terri almost didn’t make it on my team but the universe saw it through. Another friend of mine was also getting married the same day and wanted her. She saw pics and immediately sent me a DM saying “DAMN IT ... you got her!” THATS RIGHT! WE GOT HER!! Now Terri...Girl, let’s discuss lol let’s start with how awkward can I be in front of a camera lmao apparently your lens captures something that is magical with fairy dust and whatnot! Thank you for giving us the memories of our first day as husband and wife together so beautifully with such great professionalism; SO QUICKLY. Until the next shoot ... -Mr. and Mrs. Smith

    An Absolutely Brilliant Photographer

    Terri was absolutely incredible and truly one of a kind. We cannot recommend her highly enough! She listened to what we wanted and made it happen. From our engagement shoot through to the delivery of our final photographs after the wedding, Terri was there with us every step of the way to make this moment in our lives truly special.

    She’s smart, resourceful, and thinks on her feet. She was an absolute pro not only with the lens, but in making sure that your day ran smoothly (and no one pulled anything crazy with your time—cause trust me, they will try).

    Terri is down for whatever makes your happy. She doesn’t try and impose her thoughts on you. She trusts your vision, but also is never ever ever shy to make game-changing suggestions. If something seems off, Terri will definitely let you know. And you will thank her for it.

    She’s a problem solver. It rained on our wedding day, which changed the game on some ideas we had for photos and a first look. But she improvised—clear, classy umbrella; plan B for a first look in our chapel. Everything was breathtaking and she solved the problem before it even caused us any stress.

    Her photography is incredibly. People raved about my wedding photos. They said they were the best they’ve ever seen. Terri is an artist and an expert at what she does. And she’s only been in the game doing weddings for less than half a decade? I can’t even imagine what the future holds for her. She will truly be a leader in the industry.

    Not only will you not be disappointed by Terri. You will be so thankful you chose her.

    And one last super important thing. I know you think the most important thing in this evaluation is how good your wedding photos will come out, right? Fair. But Terri is also just an incredibly kind, good person. She is sweet, funny, easy going. Her energy is just—Zen. I know not everyone cares about this... but having that around on your wedding day: priceless.

    Absolutely Amazing

    If you are looking for a photographer, you can stop your search right now and hire Terri. She has the most beautiful spirit and truly captured the essence of our wedding day. She is professional and the absolute best at her craft. Through this process, Terri has become more than our photographer but a friend. I couldn’t imagine our wedding day without her there! We would choose her over and over again without hesitation!

    Better late than never...

    Out of the blue like that I realized that I never left a formal review for my dear Terri. After almost 3 years married and a whole one year old I'm finally getting around letting the world know how amazing Terri is! From her professionalism to her work, 10/10 across the board. Things you couldn't even imagine went wrong on our wedding day. But hiring Terri is and will always be the best decision I've made. I can never thank you enough for the way you helped me during that day Terri. I don't need to tell everyone what happened cause you were there every step of the way. Wearing hats you could've declined to wear. Thank you so very much. I love you forever!
    Now to here work! Ladies and gents, Terri has such a great eye! The pictures came out so beautifully! Despite the lack of sun on our wedding day, I can honestly say, no photographer will ever capture my husband and I the way Terri did. We looked so good!!! Since 2018, I can't stop looking at the pictures!
    Thank you Terri! God bless you always!

    Terri is FANTASTIC. I found Terri on IG and immediately loved her style. We booked Terri for both our engagement and wedding photos and I’m so glad we did. My husband hates to take pictures and Terri was able to get him to open up during our engagement shoot which made shooting on our wedding day much easier. She has a great eye but also listened to our suggestions when it came to photos we wanted to capture. We received our wedding photos a few days ago and although I’ve looked at them probably 100 times now, I still can’t decide on which is my favorite because they are all so great. You will not regret having Terri as part of your wedding day team.

    Finding the photographer for my wedding was one of the very last things I found because I wanted perfect photos and none of the several dozen photographers I researched stood out. I needed the photos to be unique, the quality had to be excellent and I wanted someone who would pay attention to the detail - there's nothing worse than anxiously awaiting special event photos only to get them and find closed eyes, hidden figures lost in the back, terrible background distractions, etc., so I wanted someone who saw the whole picture. I stressed for months until a friend suggested Terri's Instagram page, after 20 secs of scrolling, I KNEW Terri was exactly what I wanted & needed. Her engagement and wedding photos were the complete opposite of cookie cutter and boring - they were vibrant/alive, oozed professional, sophisticated, romantic, glamorous and unique. I went to her superb website that night to submit a request form and not even 24 hours later she was in contact with me. After a couple of emails detailing vision and describing our love story, we "met" via Facetime and that sealed the deal. Unbeknownst to her, I knew she was hired before I ever saw her face or heard her voice on the phone. It's like they say with your soulmate - when you know, you know! And, I knew she was the best. We did our engagement shoot the first week of February (outside in 30 below temperatures) she was OUTSTANDING. Open to ideas, precise, had vision and took the time to make the shoot OURS
    & the finished product - STUNNING. Fast forward to the wedding, she and her partner showed up and got straight to work. She's smart, detailed, creative, passionate, organized & extraordinarily kind. She sticks to schedule, makes a point to know each couple which results in each session being tailor-made and is a genuinely great person. I'd pick Terri Baskin over and over again. She's absolutely the very best. If you have any question, her website and IG speak for themselves.

    Top Notch Experience with Terri and her team!

    Terri and her team were absolutely INCREDIBLE for my destination wedding. She and her team member captured breathtaking moments from our wedding and ensured that the photos represented the spirit of the wedding weekend! My wedding took place during the early summer (in Punta Mita, Mexico), and while BEAUTIFUL, was SUPER HOT! Somehow she managed to take tons of beautiful pictures of the groom and I (despite my concern that I would look like I was dripping sweat). Terri managed to get it done! The photos and edits were also sent to us well before the promised deadline. I would recommend Terri Baskin Photography to anyone looking for a gifted professional to spend their very special day with them.

    Great energy. She had an eye for things I didn't even know I wanted to be captured. You will not be disappointed as you add her to your wedding day experience She and her partner have a level of calm you will enjoy as we were so happy to have her as our photographer.

    Terri was a dream to work with! I had seen many of her photos for friends’ weddings and knew there was no other photographer we wanted for our special day. Terri was responsive, flexible, creative and so much fun to shoot with. She even got my husband (who HATES being in front of the camera) to relax, smile and have a good time. She was masterful at our wedding and able to pivot quickly when we needed her to. She will be our family photographer for a long while! You will never be happier than hiring Terri for your wedding!
