More Than Just Photographers

Darren and Mandy are outstanding photographers and people. Their professionalism and quality of work were unmatched by any other photographers we spoke with. They went above and beyond for us throughout our entire wedding planning process, and were kind and patient throughout the entire experience.
Their quality of work is also incredible. If you like what you see on their website, that is exactly what you will get. They are very consistent in their work. They don't just give you a handful of good photos. Each and every picture they take is as perfect as the last. They are also very open-minded and willing to hear your ideas. While we were shooting our engagement and wedding photos, they gave us ideas and also listened and did everything they could to make our ideas/visions come to life.
We cannot recommend them enough. Choosing Darren and Mandy as our wedding photographers was the best decision we made. If photographs are important to you and are your favorite way of capturing memories, then Darren and Mandy are absolutely the photographers for you.

Exceptional Photographers!

Darren and Mandy were such a pleasure to work with. From the very first time we spoke, I knew that Josh and I had made the right choice. They were professional, attentive to detail and integral in helping plan our timeline around sunset - something I have been thinking about forever. We love the way the pictures turned out and they really captured the spirit and the emotions of our day. I would recommend Darren and Mandy to all of my friends and family!

Best wedding decision you can make!

What can we say that hasn't already been said?? They are the best photographers who really go the extra miles (literally) for us. They drove all the way to Cleveland to take our engagement photos and then up to Gaylord a day before our wedding to scout out good picture locations. They stayed for the entire reception and even took more amazing pictures of us afterwards by the pool! They are incredible when it comes to making us and our wedding party look their best, as well as making everyone at ease. They are also gifted in capturing candid photos as well as wedding details. A lot of portfolios and companies on The Knot pick and choose from certain photographers but that may not be the same photographer for your wedding. Darren and Mandy have that amazing portfolio and with them you know the quality of pictures you will get. ABSOLUTELY CHOOSE THEM, you won't regret it!! Lhotse & Seth

Darren and Mandy Put in the TIME!

Darren and Mandy were an all star team who kept us both relaxed our entire wedding day. We had Darren shoot our engagement photos as well as our wedding day. The amount of time spent on our wedding before, during, and after- worth it! He listened to what was important to us which included taking most of our photos beforehand so we could spend our reception with our friends and family instead of disappearing. Attentive, professional, and extremely thorough. Mandy and Darren are both kind and caring people who made us feel at ease right away upon arriving on our wedding day. Communication was clear leading up to the wedding and there's no doubt that Darren has a true passion for what he does. Thank you for the beautiful collection of photos which documented all parts of our special day. Book them now!!

Wonderful experience

Working with Darren and Mandy was a joy for our engagement and wedding photos. We had our wedding in Holland but lived in Ohio at the time. Darren was very accommodating and came to Ohio for our engagement photos since we wanted them in our home town. They went above and beyond through our entire experience with them and gave us the most beautiful photos! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely encourage anyone to work with them for their special day!

Best Wedding Photographers!!!

Darren and his wife Mandy are true professionals and quite the dynamic duo of photography superheros. We just LOVED them. I had an initial hour and a half phone call with Darren to go over his style of photography and how he does weddings, then he met with my now husband, Derek, and I for over an hour to go over his portfolio, chat with us and answer all of our questions. I am pretty sure we asked thousands. Darren made us so at ease and we selected him and Mandy to do our wedding/engagement photos. For our engagement photo session we went on a Sunday afternoon and spent well over the allotted time we had scheduled taking pictures. The engagement photos turned out stunning and we get so many compliments on them - Darren did such a fantastic job and made it easy. About 7 months before our actual wedding we had a phone conversation with Darren and Mandy to go over logistics of the wedding day. We spent time on the phone going over every part of the day with them. They sent us a google doc of a timeline with all of our important pictures laid out so they wouldn't miss any and it had all of the important members of the bridal party that we had to specify. This was probably one of the most helpful things throughout the wedding planning process - I am such a planner and Darren and Mandy made it easy for me to plan their part. About a month before the wedding we did a walk through of the ceremony and reception for about two hours. Darren and Mandy made sure they would get all of the pictures that we wanted and the run through was super important as they were able to map out the entire day. The actual wedding day, Darren and Mandy were amazing - they did everything they said they would and more and we got so many compliments from our guests as well. Mandy even set up a preview of some of our pictures for our guests in our cocktail space that she had playing during the cocktail hour. We truly can't say enough about these two - photography was one thing I was really anxious about because we really wanted to select the right people to really capture our day - we could not have picked better. Darren and Mandy were so organized and take great photos and really put our minds at ease for the whole day and we could not be happier. We got our wedding pictures back and absolutely loved them - they are everything we hoped for and more. All of our favorite moments from our wedding day were so artistically captured on camera and we can't wait to get our wedding album and prints to have showcased in our home together!

The BEST photographer pair you could ask for

Extremely professional, incredibly talented and most of all, the most personable and down to earth. Darren and Mandy handled everything with such grace and professionalism. I cannot put into words how special and amazing these two are. dealing with our crazy family and wedding party, and having all of the extra work of sending things out of state, where we reside. I will say that Mandy and Darren are one of a kind, and you will be so incredibly happy with these two!

We loved every minute of working with Darren and Mandy. They were incredibly organized, spent a lot of time with us over the phone and in person before the wedding making sure we were all on the same page, and that we would get exactly what we wanted. They took our Hollywood theme and found great ways to sneak it in without being over the top and created some truly beautiful movie poster re-creation photos for us during our engagement session that we used as decorations during our actual wedding day. We had so much fun working with them and every photo turned out wonderful. We could not recommend enough.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
