    Amazing Engagement Shoot Photographer!

    I couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our engagement shoot. Originally, we won a 1 hour shoot, but since we liked Courtland so much, we decided to do an extra paid hour. Not only did he make us feel comfortable for our very first photoshoot together, but he went above and beyond to make sure we got the shots that we had envisioned. Prior to the day of the shoot, he met up with us twice to go over our vision and expectations. We were able to bring our dog and have him be a part of our pictures as well!
    Courtland's professionalism and creativity is unmatched and I would definitely recommend him as your photographer!

    Courtland Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much, Nicole! You and Alvin are a joy to work with, and I'm so excited we met. You two rock!

    Incredible energy and mesmerizing photos!

    Courtland was extraordinary throughout the entire engagement photography session! He truly brought an incredible energy with him, was prompt, professional, and most of all immensely creative! He brought unique ideas with him that resulted in captivating captures. We ended up loving over 80 photographs that Courtland captured and can't wait for him to make them into our sign-in book. You can't go wrong with Courtland--he truly is the best of the best.

    Courtland Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much, Callie! I'm so grateful to have met you and Tim. You were both an absolute joy to work with, and I'm so happy for you!

    Courtland is simply the best!

    Courtland just did my engagement shoot, and I could not be more thrilled and grateful to have found him -- the quality of his work is unparalleled, and he is the perfect blend of classic and artistic. He is also super responsive and friendly, and he quickly put me and my fiance at ease. We cannot recommend him more highly!!

    Courtland Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much, Anjuli! You and Aaron were a blast to photograph and hang out with. I'm so happy for you both!

    I would highly recommend Courtland as a wedding photographer! He is pleasant, organized, professional and conscientious. Importantly, he also takes amazing, unique photographs. At Courtland’s suggestion we used engagement photos as a guestbook. Our guests were also highly impressed with Courtland’s photos. After seeing a preview, I cannot wait to see our wedding photos!

    The Bomb.com photographer

    Courtland has been on a journey with us since the beginning of our engagement. From 2020 in Yosemite for our proposal, Jenner for our engagement shoot, to our wedding in October of 2022. He has worked with us to make us feel beyond comfortable and became one of our closest friends along the way. His professionalism is beyond amazing! He is a real artist and takes what we wanted every session and crafted it with the most amazing lighting and natural expressions. He truly captured the love, excitement, and energy when shooting is for all our moments. He makes everyone feel special and important while shooting. Courtland is a fun and loving man and works so well with anyone so, working with our vendors for our wedding was seamless and a success. Everyone loved him and his energy! If you have the ability to book him for your special day and work with him you will be thrilled with the whole experience. My family, friends, and guest are ranting and raving about our pictures. HIGHLY RECOMMEND COURTLAND!

    Courtland Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much, Shelby!!! I'm so glad our paths crossed, and I'm floored that I'm able to capture and document the love between you and Erik.

    Bride Britne:Working with Courtland for our engagement photos was fantastic! Not only did the pictures come out amazing but the journey to the pictures was great. Courtland was very patient with the changing schedules and was the communication was great!! Groom Eric: Shooting with Courtland was such a joy.

    Amazing photos

    We did our engagement shoot almost a week ago and we were so impressed with Courtland. We met with him about an hour before our shoot to sit and talk and it really made the whole session a lot less awkward. Courtland is such a genuine guy, it felt like hanging out with an old friend. Once we started our photo session he had such great ideas for natural poses and really made us feel comfortable and not too posed. He sent us a few sneak peek photos and we are absolutely in love with them. He did a fantastic job of having fun with us while still remaining professional. We would highly recommend Courtland to anyone looking for a photographer!

    Fun, unique, and personable- The Best in a Photographer

    Courtland was our only first choice after our initial phone call with him. As ex-military, he had a lot in common with my fiance as well as my whole family which made talking to him exceptionally easy. Not only did he go out of his way for phone calls, Facetimes, and email correspondence, he made me feel like my wedding was just as important to him as if it were his own. I felt his passion towards his art and the day of our wedding went absolutely perfect with him and his assistant by our sides capturing all of our special moments. I would hire him 1000 times over, and cannot express enough how beautiful his pictures are, or how amazing he was to work with. We will definitely use him in the future as our family grows to capture our special moments.

    Courtland Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much, Kristin! It was an honor and an absolute blast photographing your wedding. I can't wait to show you the rest :)

    Reliving our wedding day forever through Courtland's beautiful work!

    I can't say enough great things about Courtland. We had him photograph both our engagement/maternity photos and our wedding and everything turned out beautiful. Working with him is fun and easy. At our wedding we hardly noticed him (during the ceremony, at dinner, cake cutting, first dance, etc.), but he captured it all! He has amazing attention to detail and brought our wedding day to life. I cried when we got our photos back because every single moment is detailed. The colors are vibrant, his work with light is incredible, and I loved all of the candid shots he got of us and our friends and family. We will forever cherish our photos and can't wait to get prints.

    Amazing experience!

    Courtland is beyond amazing! We had a few things that pushed our photo shoot out and he was happy to accommodate and change dates, as needed. He was great at communicating and keeping in touch, leading up to the day of our shoot.
    The day of our shoot, we hung out and talked for a bit before we started. That really helped to ease into things. When we started the shoot we didn’t even really notice because it happened so organically, starting with our daughter running to & from us. We all had the best time with it!
    We just cannot say enough great things about Courtland! He’s an all around great guy and he’s an animal lover, so that already puts him high on my list. He’s funny, genuine, friendly, accommodating, attentive, and professional. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!

    Refreshing, Creative, & Professional

    It’s been a long time since I’ve both met and worked with an individual who possessed great professionalism and creativity. I’m one who love to be in the same position as Courtland, behind the camera, so I was honestly refreshingly surprised at how creative and spontaneous Courtland was. He made both myself and my Fiancé feel at ease to truly be ourselves and capturing our beautiful moment but also the true raw moments that occur only noticeable behind a closed door! I was remarkably amazed at both the amount of images Courtland captured along with the quality! Both my Fiancé and I enjoyed the shoot and couldn’t be happier!
    ps - I was surprised with a printed image book displaying our photos for our anniversary and it brought me to tears!

    Courtland Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Kat! It brings me so much joy that you love your photos, not to mention your surprise album.... :))) It's my privilege to capture the love you and Rob have, both on and off the paintball field! I'm so happy for you both.

The quality of is work is unmatched, his artistic abilities are spectacular and unique, he brings it all to the table, and you couldn't ask for a more professional, fun, talented photographer. Not mention he's a downright great human being.

    Amazing and Astounding

    Professional, blends in with different types of people and their attitude. Very likable and has a lot of experience under his belt. Any ideas I had, he made them much much better. At that point all I did was leave everything to him because I trusted him 110%.

    Courtland Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much, Daniil! Your wedding was an absolute joy to document. I wish you and Emily the best of luck in life!

Courtland and his team were so fantastic to work with! They go above and beyond every event, with such a great eye for scenery and techniques that really make couples stand out. Their unique sense of style paired well with our unique venue, every image was flawlessly executed. Now we have amazing photos we can use for wedding promotion for years to come! I'm definitely looking forward to working with them again in the future.

Courtland is a real photography professional. I say that because I work with a lot of photographers that get good photos, but at the expense of the event. Courtland knows how to get amazing photos while not being too intrusive with his camera or flash. His photos are great and he is friendly, creative, and quick on the fly. I recommend Courtland to any couple looking for photography!
