Hire Aidan for your Wedding Pictures!

Stop searching for a wedding photographer, you’ve found him!! From the very first email Aidan left us feeling stress free when it came to our wedding photos. On the big day, Aidan was the first person there and one of the last to leave, well exceeding his contracted time! He helped wrangle family members for photos outside of the church and drove with us all over Old Town Alexandria to make sure we got the perfect photos. Aidan had an intimate knowledge of Old Town, finding the best places for pictures. It was a relief after a year of wedding planning to let someone else take the reins and tell us where to go and how to “pose”. He even made an additional stop at our home to get a shot with the dog, our favorite picture! The wedding was a whirlwind, but the time that my husband and I spent with Aidan taking photos offered some of the most memorable moments. It gave us a chance to be alone and take a breath on a whirlwind of a day. We can’t thank Aidan enough for giving us those moments. As for the quality of the photos, they are incredible!

Highly Recommend as a Wedding Photographer!

We hired Aiden as our wedding photographer and we are so happy with how the photos and whole experience turned out. The pictures look amazing and we have a huge variety of different poses, photo locations, and styles to look back on our big day fondly.

We chose Benson Park because we really liked his photographic style and were super impressed with his portfolio of photos on his website. He was easy to work with from the first meeting to our engagement photo session and finally the wedding. I would definitely recommend him to others and we will likely try to use his services again in the near future! Thanks Aiden!

The absolute best!

Aidan comes highly recommended from me and my husband! I made sure to let him know that we aren’t the “photo posing” couple and he made us feel very comfortable in every moment with him. His talent truly comes through each photo he captures. He worked very well with all of our different vendors and planners throughout our wedding season. He was extremely responsive, answered all of our questions, and sent photos within just a few days! This is definitely your photographer if you want a calm, cool and collected professional capturing one of the most memorable events of your life!

Excellent Wedding Photographer!

Aidan was our engagement shoot and wedding photographer, and we cannot recommend him enough. He was extraordinarily professional, kind, and produced amazing photos. Aidan goes above and beyond - particularly on the wedding day - to make sure things run smoothly. We were absolutely stunned at how great our sessions turned out.

Best choice for engagement and wedding photos

We had our engagement session and wedding shot by Aidan from Benson Park Photography and we are so happy we chose him to be our photographer! I looked for a photographer with fair/clear pricing and crisp/vivid colors and Aidan is all that and then some! We were so comfortable during the engagement shoot and wedding portraits. Aidan provided direction while still letting us be ourselves - that’s exactly what we wanted in our photographer. He was also flexible with timing and locations. I had a silly idea for a location for our engagement shoot and he knocked it out of the park, completely delivering on my vision. At our wedding, Aidan was in the mix capturing everything so smoothly and was just a great person to have around, he’s go with the flow and gives great direction. Our whole family appreciated how he took their photos and helped them feel comfortable, relaxed, and not staged. Logistically, the platform he uses is easy to see payments, photo list planning, and scheduling. When there’s so much to keep track of during wedding planning, I really appreciated his online set up and strong communication style - always checking in at the right times. Most importantly, we LOVE our photos. Choosing Benson Park was a great choice to document this season of our lives! Would pick him again every time. Thank you, Aidan!

Valentine’s Day Wedding Photography Review

Choosing Aiden as our photographer for our Valentine’s Day wedding was one of the best decisions we made. His photography style immediately stood out to us, and the final images exceeded everything we imagined. He was extremely reliable and knowledgeable, which gave us full confidence that every important moment would be captured beautifully. His direction was clear and helpful, and his funny, personable approach made us feel relaxed and natural all day long. He delivered exceptional quality at a fair investment price point, and we are so thrilled with our wedding photos — highly, highly recommend!

Book with Aidan now!

Aidan took both our engagement and wedding photos and we are so happy we did! Aidan is so easy to work with and made us feel comfortable through all of the different locations and poses changes. We can’t recommend him enough.
While planning, we didn’t have a ton of ideas of what we wanted but Aidan made it easy. He researched our ceremony and reception venues ahead of our planning call and had lots of suggestions to make sure our day was captured perfectly.
He really goes above and beyond in his service to make sure he gets all of the shots. He showed up even before his contract time to ensure he was set up to start right away. His attention to detail and arranging of the bridal party and family members ensured that all of the shots turned out natural yet beautifully arranged. He’s always calm and collected even when things are hectic but knows how to wrangle a big group! We were also so happy we decided to engage him through the end of the reception. It seemed like he was everywhere all at once to make sure he captured all of the action.
And most importantly, we are so happy with how our photos turned out. He got our engagement photos back to us within two days, and our first look for our wedding photos back in three days (150 edited photos!!). He knows exactly how to make the lighting work and has so many unique and creative ideas that turn out so well. I can’t stop looking at the photos and even more excited to get the full album. His work speaks for itself, go and book him now!

Everything I Could Imagine and More!

We used Benson Park Photography last weekend for our December wedding.
From the planning process back in the spring to the day before the wedding, Aidan's communication, thoughtfulness, and care was above and beyond.
Within 3 days of being married, he sent over 250+ photos as a preview!
His photos are truly breathtaking and he really outdid himself.
We are so grateful that he was able to capture the happiness and love that we felt so deeply that day.
We cannot recommend him enough!

Five Stars Aren’t Enough for Aidan!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Aidan on multiple weddings over the years — me as the videographer and him as the photographer — and he has always been one of my absolute favorite people to collaborate with. He’s incredibly easy to work with, always cooperative, and gives plenty of space for creativity. My favorite part? His personality. He’s consistently cool, calm, and collected, no matter how busy the wedding day gets.

Recently, I had the chance to experience his work as a **client** when he photographed our courthouse wedding, and I was blown away. I still can’t believe the images that came out of his camera — absolutely stunning. He turned our small, intimate day into beautiful memories that we’ll cherish forever. Every time we look at the photos, we get to relive those moments in the most amazing way.

Aidan is truly exceptional at what he does. Couldn’t recommend him more! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
