I Can’t Believe How Perfectly They Captured Everything About Our Special Day

We used Dustin and his wife Nicole as the two photographers for our wedding day and could not have made a better decision. They were so incredibly easy to work with from the very start. I live in Houston, so I had to rely on online sources to find a photographer. I came across Dustin and set up a time to talk with him over the phone. He was very professional, flexible, and responsive. In our early conversations I could tell that he was going to be a good fit since he said he really enjoyed taking candid shots over posed photos. I wanted someone who could capture all of the special moments from the day, and not just take nice portraits (although he did a great job at that too). Dustin and Nicole did a phenomenal job of directing all of our wedding party and family members to be where they needed to be and when to keep our photos on schedule. They were creative in finding fun shots for us to take and everything felt very natural. I didn’t even notice them during the ceremony and reception. So much so, that I was actually a little worried the next day because I wasn’t sure what kind of photos we would get since I never saw them really taking them. Dustin turned around the photos in a matter of days after our wedding and I was absolutely shocked to see that he and Nicole had been everywhere that day and night! They were like flies on a wall, blending into the crowd, and capturing so many beautiful and natural moments. I especially couldn’t believe all of the fun shots they got during the reception of everyone dancing! All of the photos were flattering (not awkward) and you could just feel the energy coming through in all of the pictures. I cannot stop looking through the photos since they really have let me relive the most perfect day of my life over and over again. I would absolutely recommend Dustin and Nicole to anyone looking for a professional, creative, and easy to work with photographer.

Would hire Dustin again and again and again 💯💯💯

Dustin did an AMAZING job with both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. They’re all so incredible and our friends and family agree. I can’t wait to print all of them to enjoy and give them as gifts for our friends and family. Dustin was easy to work with, organized, and responsive! He made us feel comfortable and got us laughing when posing felt a little awkward. We appreciated every moment of working with him and the energy he brought to our wedding. Nicole was also fantastic to work with at the wedding. Good vibes all around and also worth calling out that Dustin connected us with Bat City Beats which gave our wedding the best DJ! Trust all of his recommendations because they’re worth it! We’d hire Dustin again any day. 10/10 would recommend!!

Dustin is awesome!!

Dustin was incredible to work with!! We had a friend take our engagement photos, so we hadn't shot with Dustin until our wedding day, yet he made us feel comfortable immediately. He and his wife are both extremely talented, and even our detail shots look so cool and artsy. Dustin was patient when we got a little off schedule, and he was so fun the whole night!
Our photos look amazing, and get this....he got them to us within ONE week!!! WOW! We were not anticipating that at all and were so excited to relive our big day through his camera's eyes!
Dustin is affordable yet HIGH quality!
I'm adding some of our couple shots, but our family shots look AMAZING, and he captured so many fun reception moments too!

Amazing experience!

My husband and I had the BEST experience with Dustin Finkelstein Photography! Dustin really took the time to understand what we were looking for, and we couldn't be happier with how our wedding photos turned out! We were surprised and delighted to see a number of beautifully shot photos (both posed and candid) of our guests, taken at different points throughout the day. Dustin and his wife Nicole (our second photographer) were not only very professional and efficient but also warm spirited and just lovely to be around. They make a great team and really know their craft - and it shows in the photos! From our initial consultation with Dustin to those final snapshots on the dance floor, we couldn't be more thrilled with the whole experience. We would recommend them for any event! Thank you Dustin Finkelstein Photography!

Fun photo experience and great value

We absolutely loved our experience with Dustin and Nicole. They made our photo experience easy and we're so happy with the results. Additionally, we loved how easy it was to add a photobooth and the DJ they work with, Bat City Beats, was amazing. We highly recommend Dustin!

Don't regret not having better pictures

Worth every penny! Navigating our budget and figuring out what to prioritize was one of the harder parts of planning our wedding. Being on the other side of the wedding, all I can say is make sure you love your photographer, the photos will last a lifetime. And without a doubt we loved Edmond! From the first meeting we felt so comfortable with him, and his calm energy on the wedding day was greatly appreciated. We received our full gallery less than 2 weeks from the wedding date and are obsessed with the pictures!!! I shopped around a lot, and found Dustin's company to be extremely reasonably priced and they followed through with every promise and then some. If they're on your radar and available on your date, BOOK THEM!

Absolutely recommend Dustin and his team!

We loved working with Dustin throughout our wedding planning process! He was so thorough, helped us make a custom package for photography and videography so we would get the best deal without missing any of our events. It was a 3 day Indian wedding and Dustin and his team (Nicole and Joe) were there on time for each event, thoroughly professional and seasoned in their craft!
They understood the importance of our Indian rituals and have captured it beautifully during all 3 events in the photos.
We loved how prompt Dustin was in responding to us and being there for us when we had questions during the planning phase.
We cherish the photos he gave us which was uploaded within a few days of the wedding!

We recommend him, Joe and Nicole a 100%!

Best Photographers Ever!

Dustin Finkelstein Photography did an amazing job with our wedding and engagement photos. He and his wife were easy to contact, quick to respond, kind, and thorough. They made sure to capture all the perfect moments, angles, and came up with some creative ideas for our photo shoots. They were also extremely professional, fun to be around, and the turn around time for the photos was so quick! I would 100% recommend booking with them - and their pricing is so reasonable! We plan to have more photo shoots with them in the future.

FABULOUS photography team!

I worked with Edmond Lorts during my wedding and he was absolutely phenomenal during the planning process and on our wedding day. He showed up early, ready to go, and took photos above and beyond my expectations. He also was wonderful with our flower girls, and especially patient with my 3-year old niece. Our guests all loved him and he helped to keep us on our timeline as well. And to top everything off, we got all of our photos back in less than a week! I honestly don't think you could ask for anything more in a wedding photographer and I would recommend Edmond a million times over.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
