Drop What You're Doing and Book Them Right Now

Eight Hands Photography was different right from the very first phone call. Their style of photography is for people who are IN LOVE and are jazzed beyond all belief to be getting married, so at the start of our call they asked us to talk about each other and our story. I will never forget that call because it gave us a moment in the planning process to reflect on what we love about each other and how we had arrived at our engagement. We knew by the end of the call these were two people we could hang out with all day and could trust with our photos.

Both our engagement photos and wedding photos were done by Eight Hands. The engagement shoot was so much fun, and Rue has such a wonderful eye for finding the special shot in any location. Rue and Bryan checked in with us leading up to the wedding, getting the info of our other vendors and ultimately offering to shoot video for our wedding in addition to photography.

We are so thankful to have chosen such a talented and fun team to take our wedding photos and video. Our photos and videos are STUNNING, and Eight Hands managed to capture every single one of the little details we put together for the day.

Making our wedding album was so hard because we genuinely had 800+ perfect photos to choose from. We received our wedding album last week and are blown away by it. Seeing those photos at the scale of the 12” album is so special and we will cherish it forever. I left their office for the last time saying “they’re taking every family photo of us forever,” because I don’t want to say goodbye! Book them if they’re free you will not regret it!

One of the best/easiest decisions we made while wedding planning!

Rue and Bryan were INCREDIBLE to work with for both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. They helped us to feel so comfortable during both our engagement session and on our wedding day, and were a seamless part of the wedding team making the big day so fun! They both have an incredible artistic eye and the final product they deliver is top quality! They also noticed small things during the day, like my husband was struggling with his allergies and Bryan went to get him nasal spray on our big day 😅 would 1000% recommend this incredible team at Eight Hands to capture your beautiful day!
