Beautiful photos that truly capture the day!

Lee’s photos are incredible! We were so happy with our wedding photos. He was great to work with on the wedding day, and we have already gotten so many compliments on how beautiful the pictures are. If you’re looking for the documentary style that really captures the emotions of the day, Lee absolutely has the eye for it!

Best Photographer EVER!

When our original wedding photographer cancelled a couple months out from our wedding day, we were a bit panicked. However, she recommended Lee and Alchemist Weddings and after our intro call, we knew everything would be perfectly fine. Our wedding day could not have been more perfect with Lee there shooting. He was funny and energetic. He kept everyone engaged and laughing. Our wedding party and guests just absolutely loved him, as did we! We even got a sneak peek of our photos back a few hours after our reception ended - and they’re absolutely gorgeous! I wish I could have Lee shoot every moment. Couldn’t recommend more

10/10 recommend!

Lee has been a pleasure to work with for my wedding photography from the very beginning. On our introductory call, he spent a long time trying to understand us as individuals and as a couple, as well as what our vision was. He was open and flexible in ensuring that we felt comfortable working with him, which is so essential when it comes to a wedding photographer. Even though we booked months ahead of time, he was great about maintaining communication and continuing to check in with us throughout the process. When it came time to meet him for our engagement shoot, he easily and quickly made us feel comfortable in front of a camera, something we had felt worried about. He is kind, gentle, and personable, while also being our biggest hype man! It’s very clear that behind the camera, there’s a person that’s passionate about and believes in what he does. This helped us to already feel very comfortable with him on our wedding day, which was an important component for a day that could get chaotic and stressful. He was there to remind us to live in the moment. I couldn’t have asked for more and I absolutely recommend trusting Lee with one of the most important parts of your wedding journey!

Lee is the beeesst!!!

The best decision we made for our wedding — hands down — was choosing Lee at Alchemist Weddings.

From the very first consultation call, which turned into a warm hour long chat that felt more like catching up with an old friend than a business meeting, we knew Lee was someone special. His passion, creativity, and genuine kindness shines through from the start.

Our engagement shoot was absolutely magical. People still talk about those photos …a year later! We’ve received countless compliments, and it’s no exaggeration to say we ended up with some of the best photos in the wedding industry. Lee has an incredible ability to capture not just moments, but the emotions. The joy, the love, the laughter, all frozen in time with such artistryu.

Now that we’ve gotten a sneak peek of our wedding photos, we’re even more blown away. If the previews are this stunning, we can only imagine what the full album will be like — and we cannot wait to see it.

Choosing Lee was more than hiring a photographer; it was gaining a lifelong friend who genuinely cares about the couples he works with. We are so grateful for his talent and heart, and for the gift of memories he’s given us.

I can promise you that you won’t regret picking Lee. But, you just might regret not picking him.

Beautiful Photography!

We could not be happier with our experience working with Lee! His photos beautifully preserved the tiniest, most meaningful moments of our wedding day. His documentary style uniquely captured our wedding candidly, and the final photos turned out absolutely stunning.

The editing perfectly captured the vibe and ambiance of our wedding, making every picture feel like we were reliving the day all over again. Not only that, but our friends, family, and entire bridal party had such a great time during the photo sessions — having portraits taken was a joyful and fun experience for everyone!

We are beyond grateful for his incredible work and would highly, highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented, thoughtful photographer to document their wedding day. Thank you, Lee!

Exceptional Experience: Capturing Every Moment Perfectly

Working with Lee for our wedding was an incredible experience. In the lead-up, he was always communicative and readily available to answer all of our questions. On the day itself, his easygoing and calming presence put us at ease, while his keen attention to detail ensured every moment was captured beautifully. My husband and I are usually camera-shy, but Lee made us feel comfortable and helped us achieve exactly what we wanted. We were able to get most of our photos done before the ceremony, which allowed us to fully enjoy the rest of the day with our guests. The resulting gallery is stunning, with a perfect balance of posed and candid shots. Our guests even joked that Lee was everywhere, capturing every detail! He also delivered the pictures incredibly fast, and we couldn’t be happier with the results!

Tremendous

Lee was one our easiest choices we made during the wedding planning. We found him on one of these wedding websites, but he stood out to us as someone super down to earth. We were planning a small/intimate wedding, and we wanted to find someone that we could easily mix into the group. Lee's photos were perfect.

More than I hoped for

Lee is absolutely phenomenal! We had a bit of a rowdy wedding party, he handled them like it was no big deal and managed to get so many exceptional photos. His style and artistic vision far surpassed what I could have ever wanted for our engagement and wedding photos. We had countless guests tell us how kind he was and how he agreed to take a photo when asked. I was speechless when I first saw our wedding photos and he was so quick to get them to us. Do yourselves a favor, invest in the best photographer for your wedding, you won't regret it!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
