About

We are a husband and wife team with more than 25 years of photography experience and over 40 years of marriage. There’s just something about being in love with someone.

For me it started back in the late sixties, I bought my first camera while I was deployed in Vietnam. It was then I was bit by the photography bug and have thought about it every day since. I met and married my wife Kathy in 1971. She’s an artist, she’s been telling stories by sculpting clay for most of her life. She has a beautiful insight and I’ve come to depend on her and her inspiration. We have two grown children who have found success in the music business as well as both owning small businesses.

Over the past 25 years there isn't much we haven’t seen. We started in the days when you actually had to shoot on film and then physically develop it. These are the analog days of film. Today’s world is digital, high definition video, digital photography and powerful computers. I have fully embraced today’s technologies and spend my time learning and refining my techniques in both physical composition and digital enhancements.

We are a small business. We take pride in both our work and relationships. There are no hidden agendas and no surprises. We care about our clients and we are simply here to serve. We would love to meet with you and become your photographers. If you have any questions, take some time and call. You’ll be calling our home so we’ll be answering with a simple “Hello”.

Hands down Best Photographer

Amazing quality photos with a ton of experience and knowledge and helped us complete our timeline for our entire wedding. No one knew that they were even at our wedding! They were so helpful and encouraging. Our family and our wedding party loved them just as much as us!

Words cannot describe how Dennis & Kathy helped make our wedding special. We've used them for graduation pictures and engagement pictures and will always be our "go to" for photography needs. Absolutely loved them! Thank you for making our day more meaningful!!

Wonderful experience! Working with Always over the Top was both fun and efficient! Generally I am very camera shy, but they made me feel so comfortable that I was striking poses left and right! It was a very fun session! In addition, the photos and video were ready within one month of the wedding and they turned out amazing. We especially appreciated receiving the files and having them preloaded onto Shutterfly! I'd recommend these guys to everyone!

They are amazing people. Easy to communicate and work with. They make you feel like you are more than just another wedding. The pictures were fantastic and we loved all of them. A great feature that they provide is you get full exclusive copyrights for your photos so you can print them at Target, Shutterfly (they make a site for you), WalMart, etc. We would definitely recommend to anyone and would use again in the future.

Excellent photographers (husband and wife team with many years of experience) that were willing to work with us and our needs every step of the way. The engagement, wedding day, ceremony, and reception photos were all amazing and we retained the copyright (unlike some photography studios).

I would recommend Always Over the Top Photography to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Most impressively, they are very knowledgeable about how the schedule and kept things moving without feeling pressured to hurry (I've been to many weddings where the photos drag on an it keeps the guests waiting and hungry...) so I felt like I got a wedding planner for free. We ended up with a lot of great pictures. They also did the photo booth for us which was a hit with our guests. Very cool people and very reasonable pricing which you will find out once you start your research.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
