Allen and Marge at Creation Waits are an absolute pleasure and joy to work with! They could not have more pleasant demeanors, which is a significant attribute when things are hectic on the wedding day. Between the two of them, they are the perfect team. They were fantastic at unobtrusively capturing candid moments and also skilled at quickly wrangling guests for posed shots. And, perhaps most importantly, their work is stunning! We couldn't have dreamed the wedding photos would turn out as well as they did. They far, far exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend Creation Waits! They will make your wedding entirely stress-free and produce some unbelievable work.

Marge and Allen are amazing! Great people and wonderful photograhers. They went above and beyound of the responsibilities. We bought only 3 hours of their time, though the wedding lasted 5 hours. They arrived half an hour earlier and stayed for 1.5 extra hours. Their prices vary from $895 and up to "how big your budget is":) They work with you thoroughly explaining every detail. Very professional and easy to work with, Responsible and out-going. The pics turned out to be excellent!!!
