About

"You would be remiss to not hire Adam." - Lee J.

Being a photographer is a weird gig. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but it just is.

In what other profession are you contacted and asked to be invited into a complete stranger's life as well as their closest family and friends? And not just invited in, but asked to document it? This sort of connection between couple and photographer is one of the very few, the only others being with your other wedding vendors.

This is not a facet that is lost on me. In fact, it's the connection that takes place that is my favorite part of the process. The part where you share beyond just your wedding story and we share, down to Earth, real access to this season of our lives.

The thing about your wedding is that you and your partner are what makes it unique. Every wedding has folks getting ready, does or doesn't have a first look, has a ceremony, has a wedding party, has a reception, and has an ending. Very few weddings diverge from that, so it's in the getting to know you and the access to your every day and what's good and what's hard that translates to better photos; that translates to YOUR wedding.

I've been married for over 15 years, and I've learned that marriage is not for the faint of heart. It is not something you can set and forget. Some days it's like a bad chili and some days it like the best meal you've had in your life. Like any relationship from the one with your partner to your friends to your parents and even to your wedding photographer, it is built on vulnerability, shared happiness, deep connection, and open communication. The better all of those are the better the experience is, so I am an open book with my couples. I don't do what I do just to snap a few photos, I do this because every connection is an opportunity to help each other evolve, to sink a little deeper, and be more intentional.

Does this resonate with you? Are you are looking for a wedding photographer that goes beyond the surface level? Is your hope to find someone to help guide you through this process professionally and compassionately? Are you wanting to look back on your photos and this time in your life and not just remember them but to be able to feel them and remember why you did any of this marriage stuff at all? If so, I'd love to schedule our first call and share how I can be that person for you.

Looking forward to speaking with you both.

Invaluable!

I knew from the beginning that I wanted more from my wedding pictures then just staged photos. One of the things that stood out from the beginning is how Adam captures the beauty and emotion of the wedding day. We were thrilled to hire him based on his website photos and he did not let us down!! From the beginning, Adam was extremely professional and on point. He went above and beyond helping us navigate a difficult situation with our wedding planner that completed changed the experience we were having and are so grateful to him. He has great relationships with others in the wedding business and worked so well with everyone. He is a wonderful person who clearly works on himself personally and loves his work which made it such a pleasure to work with and get to know him.

All that being said, the photographs were beyond what we could have hoped for. We are in the process of trying to order prints and even trying to narrow it down is so challenging. I can't wait to see our wedding album in person and so happy that Adam also makes his own prints. We cannot recommend him highly enough and know he will continue to be a part of our lives.

Such a Pleasure and Amazing Images!

Adam captured the spirit, fun, love, and joy of our daughter's wedding day! From their first look until their departure, Adam and co-photographer Josh were there for every single second of the action. (They were having as much fun as our guests were too and immersed themselves into the moment!!) Most wedding photographers will make sure that your day is photographed up one side and down the other, and they will shoot the perfunctory, formulaic detail shots, along with the typical, expected frames. Adam and Josh go way beyond the expected and magically manage to deliver a unique, artistic, amazing gallery of images from your day. If you want your gallery to look like every other bride's that you know, good luck! Adam goes beyond the obvious and ordinary wedding photography formula and delivers the extraordinary. They shot thousands of frames and edited down leaving us so many great ones from which to choose! How many different words are there for amazing? Not enough to describe Adam Chapin Photography!!

Amazing-You will not be disappointed

There is nothing that I can say that will do justice for Adam. He is such a talented and amazing photographer. His ability to tell the story surpasses expectations. His personality makes you feel at ease. We are beyond happy with our wedding photos. We will cherish them forever.
