Amazing experience from beginning to end!

Craig and his team were the absolute best at making sure we got the right photos and videos we wanted from our wedding!! Craig from the very beginning was attentive to our vision for our photos and videos and always made sure we were on the same page. I'm in love with my photos and videos from my wedding day! Even after the wedding was over, Craig was more than happy to help with some last minute requests. I couldn't have asked for a better team. I recommend Craig Peterman Photography & Video to anyone and everyone wanting to capture their special day right!

Highly recommend!!

Craig and his team were absolutely incredible!! My husband and I could not recommend his team enough. We got our engagement photos, wedding photos, and videography through his team, and every aspect turned out exactly how we had hoped. Craig made us feel so comfortable around the camera and his photos turned out absolutely incredible – better than we could have imagined. Additionally, at our wedding, him and his team somehow managed to get photos of practically every one of our guests, which my husband and I were so grateful for. They captured so many precious moments and as we look back on our photos and videos months after our wedding, we still get to feel the excitement and love we felt on that day. We highly recommend him and his team!

Amazing Photographer

Craig is truly incredible, and I can’t recommend him enough. He has captured so many special milestones for our family—from our engagement photos to our wedding photos and video, and now our maternity photos. He is incredibly easy to work with, makes you feel completely comfortable during every shoot, and has an amazing eye for capturing the perfect moments. His editing style is beautiful—natural, vibrant, and exceptional at bringing out every color without feeling overdone. We will absolutely continue to trust Craig to capture all of our most important memories.

Amazing Photographer

We had an amazing experience with our Craig and his team. They were professional, organized, and made us feel completely comfortable from start to finish. Nothing felt forced, and they captured so many genuine moments throughout the day. He was friendly, attentive, and always on top of everything without being intrusive. We love our final gallery as he captured both the styled photos we asked for and the candid moments that showed our day as it was. We’re so happy with how everything turned out and couldn’t recommend them more. We will treasure these forever.

Wedding photo and video

We hired Craig for both photo and video for our wedding, and we couldn’t have been happier! From the very beginning, he was professional, organized, and so easy to communicate with. On the wedding day, he handled everything so smoothly and guided us with posing so we felt comfortable and confident. Both the photos and video turned out absolutely beautiful, we were blown away by the quality of his work. His assistant was also wonderful and captured some amazing shots we’ll always treasure. Beyond all that, Craig was genuinely fun to work with and made the whole experience so enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Craig blew us away! During our wedding, Craig’s energy and creativity turned every moment into a masterpiece. He has this amazing ability to spot the perfect light and angles without making it feel staged. Our photos captured the true spirit of our family’s fun and spontaneity.

What I loved most was how Craig listened to our ideas and added his own unique twists, making the session feel collaborative and effortless. His friendly personality made everyone relax, resulting in natural and joyful images. The final photos are vibrant, full of life, and exceed anything we imagined.

If you want photos that genuinely reflect who you are, Craig is your guy. Highly recommend!

I’d give him an entire constellation of stars if I could, but since I’m limited to five

I’ve never met a photographer who could blend invisibility and celebrity-level service quite like Craig. One moment, he was quietly capturing every spontaneous giggle and offbeat dance move without being noticed; the next, he was brightening the entire room with demeanor. It felt like I had a best friend behind the lens, carefully preserving every heartbeat of my special day.

What absolutely blew me away was Craig’s genuine curiosity about who we are as individuals. He asked about our goofy traditions, favorite songs, and even family nicknames. In every photo and every frame of the video, I could see how those personal touches were honored.

The final results are something I re-watch (and re-share) all the time. It’s like Craig took a highlight reel of my happiest memories and gave them a vibrant new life. The editing is seamless and artistic, yet it still feels true-to-life, no over-the-top filters or cookie-cutter effects here. Every single shot sparkles with authenticity and a hint of cinematic flair that makes me think, “Yep, that’s exactly how it felt.”

If you’re searching for someone who can turn those fleeting, magical moments into a lifelong treasure, Craig Peterman is your guy. I’d give him an entire constellation of stars if I could, but since I’m limited to five, I’ll just say: I’ve never felt more confident putting my memories in someone else’s hands. Five stars, no contest.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
