Incredible photography!

Photographer Mary Rice was incredible! The photos at the church, outside and at the reception are fabulous! She was prompt, courteous, read the room perfectly! The photos have all the right lighting and the colors are vivid! She captured all the joy!

Amazing experience!

We went with Childer's photography for our wedding and it was one of the best choices we made! We got a lot for what we pay for, including an album, and as many photos as they can take. They were very clear about the price we would have to pay, and they never charged a cent more. They also offer print services with a huge discount, so your save the dates, invitations, and others. I got my invitations through them, and they were as beautiful as the photos they took of my wedding!

Couldn’t ask for better.

The group at Childers is amazing! They are fantastic at making you feel comfortable producing amazing photos. They are amazing to work with and although we had numerous changes they were flexible and worked through them all. They were willing to try anything I asked for and produced pictures far better then I ever could have hoped for. I would never go anywhere else!

The best photographers you could ask for!

We absolutely loved working with Childers!! They are so caring and all about making the bride and groom feel special on their special day. They made sure to get every shot we could think of and worked so hard to capture our wedding. Not to mention their pictures look stunning! I cannot wait to get my final prints back! I highly recommend Childer’s photography!

Top notch photographer! Chuck and his staff are very professional, experienced, kind, so easy to work with! We had family from out of the country who were nervous and unsure of what to do! Chuck and his staff learned everyone's name within the first 10 minutes and managed to make everyone feel at ease and like family! Unbelievable shots! We cant wait to see all of the thousands of photos! Well done! I will definitely use you for any future events! Thank You!

As the bride, Chuck Childers Photography did an excellent job throughout the day with pictures! I felt very calm and loved working with Chuck, Mary and the team with each shot. Mary was absolutely amazing and coached me on positioning and stance throughout the day and I didn't even know they were there at the wedding. This team works very well together and were very timely for each moment throughout the day. They also displayed strong flexibility regarding my choice of location for getting ready and my need to walk down the aisle right when arriving to the church for the ceremony. The day was very well scheduled and I couldn't be happier with the photos we have received! As the Bride, it was fantastic to have a worry free day regarding the pictures and as a result I was able to fully enjoy my own wedding and truly cherish every moment!

We looked at 4 different options for photography for our June wedding. As the mother of the bride, I was responsible for finding the best. Childers was by far the best suited to handle our needs and wants. Chuck and his staff, specifically Mary, anticipated our needs and then some. Mary's attention to every detail regarding my daughter, the bride, was impressive and seemed to take some of the pressure off of me when it came to making sure the bride was picture perfect. They were timely and stayed on task the entire day. We had several meetings prior to the big day and I always left satisfied. I even ordered our invitations through Childers and they were perfect. Of course the end product, The pictures, are spectacular!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Weddings by Immersion Media Weddings by Immersion Media Wedding Videographers

I worked alongside Childers Photography to shoot a wedding this summer. As a videographer, it is important to work with adaptable photographers who are willing to coordinate the day and provide the best product and experience to the client. The trio of photographers that worked the wedding were amazing. We were able to seamlessly cover the event, and I was very pleased with their performance. I've worked with a lot of professionals throughout my career, and the Childers team gets an A+ in my book. I would highly recommend Childers Photography for your wedding and event photography needs.
