    All around perfect

    Lee has an eye for capturing beautiful romantic images. We used him for our wedding and the entire process from beginning to end was so comforting and easy. Lee felt like family, from getting to know what was important to us to capturing images that we get to keep for a lifetime. We will definitely be using his services again! Also he got us our photos back 3 DAYS after the wedding!!!!!

    Such unique & amazing photography!

    Lee is a fantastic wedding photographer. The communication and punctuality from day 1 of hiring Lee, all the way up to the communication and punctuality days before/day-of the wedding, was excellent. He is very personable and wants nothing more than to provide his absolute best work and fulfill any and all of the couple's dream photos. He is very patient with the chaos that comes with the wedding day, and he worked so well alongside the videographer that I hired. They ended up making a wonderful duo to capture my wedding day!
    Waiting on the sneak peak photos took a little bit longer than anticipated, but WOW the photos are phenomenal once you get them! I only have the sneak peak pics so far, but the photography is unmatched. The photos captured are so unique, and I absolutely love his style of wedding photography. I cannot WAIT to get alllllll of the photos from the wedding!

    Hire him or you will regret it

    It needs to be known that this is literally one of the most talented and emotionally dedicated photographers out there. From my experience, my best advice when planning a wedding is to put most of your budget on your venue and your photographer. The best thing about Lee is you will get A+++++ captured moments and edited pictures while not breaking your budget. This man not only knew what I wanted without telling him, but also gave me the direction to get the pictures I didn’t even think were possible. The best part of all of it, is Lee became apart of the party and my family and friends loved him. I would have it no other way but to have him as our photographer for all special and memorial events moving forward. Thank you Lee, you are incredibly talented and an amazing person inside and out. Thank you from the Huffman’s.

    #HardyEverAfter

    The photographer was the first person I hired because they are the most important to me because we will have photos forever to look back on! I am so happy with the choice I made by choosing this company. Lee and him team were awesome, they took their time and helped me not be so stressed about everything. They are also helped out tremendously with anything I needed besides taking photos. Jennifer and Drew were the ones sent to capture everything, Jennifer was super personable and made me feel comfortable about everything! I highly recommend this company and feel anyone that would be sent to shoot would be awesome. Can’t wait to see all my photos, already got a few sneak peaks and it’s only been two days! Super fast and responsive.

    The lens of an artist

    Lee has a true artists eye. What he captures aren’t just photos, they are moments in time. Moments that tell stories And capture raw emotion. Lee has taken photos for me in several occasions and every time he has created an amazing experience. People see his printed work in my home or at my work place and always comment how gorgeous the photos are. Whether it’s weddings, family photos, or portraits, Lee knows how to provide a great experience with even better images that last a lifetime!

    Amazing and talented

    Absolutely amazing! From start to finish, Lee was so professional and responsive, and just completely hit it out of the park. We received our sneak peeks in less than a week and we can’t stop looking at them and can’t believe how perfectly he captured the day! Really excited to get all of the album soon!! I recommend him 10/10 and would definitely be hiring him again.

    Must Hire!

    Our wedding pictures were absolute perfection! My husband and I have a love for baking together. In our first call together to get to know each other, we shared this with Lee. He had some fun, creative ideas of how to reflect this. He took the time to find a bakery that stayed open late for us and we had some fun! He personalized the experience AND the pictures were a dream! He is a true artist.

    Incredible to Work with!

    Lee is truly one of the most down to earth photographers we have had the pleasure of working alongside. He has an eye for detail that most photographers overlook, and he captures those moments beautifully.

    We would highly recommend him for all clients and look forward to work alongside him again!

    5 stars doesn’t even explain his creativity.

    Lee was awesome to work with and was available for quick talks and text messages throughout the planning process. On the day of the wedding, he was patient with all my requests and a took gorgeous photos of the wedding! Lee was also able to get me a sneak peek within three days and is currently working on the rest of the photos to send over!

    Amazing photos!

    Lee was absolutely amazing! I hired him to shoot my wedding a pretty long day (11 hours). Started in the bridal and groom suite with some pre ceremony pictures and first look with my dad which was so sentimental. After receiving the photos I was so incredibly happy with the editing and the shots he took I requested. He worked great with all my guests and family members and made sure to hear me out and ask if I wanted any other photos before proceeding to different scenes!
    Honestly 1000/10 and would recommend to capture your most important day!
    Thank You Lee!

    He will capture every moment of your day!

    I had the pleasure of working alongside Alchemist photography this weekend and let me tell Lee and his 2nd shooter were amazing. He showed me some previews of his shoot and wow. The angles and ideas he came up with for capturing the bride and groom I can honestly say were super crearive and unique. I cannot wait to see the catalog post editing.
