Eric went above and beyond for our wedding in so many ways! He was not only a pleasure to work with and kept things as stress free as possible, but he was also great with our nieces/flower girls (he brought a little stuffed animal to get their attention), he photoshopped my husbands shoes since my husband did not bring the correct ones for our outdoor winter photos, he was completely calm despite us running behind schedule day of, and he took such beautiful photos and got them back to us in under three weeks! Incredible service and person to work with. We can’t recommend Eric enough!

We had such an incredible experience with Eric Vest as our wedding photographer! From the day that he very promptly responded to our inquire email, to the ease he provided us on our big day and everything in between! My husband and I, even a few months post wedding continue to talk about Eric and how incredible our day was because of him. Not only did we end up with the most amazing photos, but we never even felt the pressure of taking photos. He kept our day running seamlessly and guided us through the day. We even had a thunderstorm that took out electricity and completely changed out plans springing chaos into the morning and Eric didn't even bat an eye. He quickly make the chaos of our day smooth again with his flexibility and advice on how to smoothly move forward. Our experience with Eric was so much more than the most incredible wedding photos, he gave us some of the best memories of our wedding day. We continue to receive complements about how amazing Eric was and how beautiful our photos turned out. We added on the Photo Booth guest book as well and it was seamless and so much fun! I will be recommending Eric to everyone and continuing to use him for family photos moving forward. Not only did I get the wedding photos of my dreams but so much more than that! Thank you Eric Vest Photography!!!

When we started the wedding planning process, finding the right photographer was one of the biggest priorities for me, as your photographer is such a huge part of the day. Choosing Eric as our wedding photographer was easily one of the best decisions we made! He made the whole process, from engagement pictures to wedding planning, and of course the actual wedding day, seamless, easy, and fun! He was a great resource to have when building our wedding day timeline, helping ensure we could enjoy our day without feeling rushed and still get all of the photos we dreamed of! He made the pictures fun and easy, even for my husband who was not looking forward to so many photos! He’s organized and efficient when it comes to the timeline, but he keeps the energy lighthearted, relaxed, and genuinely fun the whole time. Our family and friends were so impressed by how smoothly he helped our day go and the number of incredible pictures we received! Like I said, my husband is not a fan of being in front of the camera. However, the best compliment came from him when he told me, “Eric exceeded my expectations, which I didn’t expect as someone who is very picky and doesn’t like pictures.” Eric has a gift for capturing authentic moments and stunning photos. We ended up with the most beautiful wedding gallery that helps tell the story of our day perfectly. Seriously, we cannot recommend Eric enough!!

The way I see it, there are many categories in which to rate a wedding photographer. One is technical skill. I just got my photos back from Eric, and they’re absolutely divine. He knows exactly what he’s doing behind the lens, and with his editing/touch-ups and whatnot. Another category might be “event management.” He’s just so organized and knows just when to do this, that, and the other thing. Customer service? Yep, nailed this, too. From being so cordial and quick to respond over email, he made my wife and me feel like we were in good hands at every touchpoint.

And Eric’s amazingness goes even beyond earning an A+ in every conceivable category in which one could “grade” a photographer. It’s the little things, like for example how he’d straighten my tie if it ended up askew. A short side story to further illustrate this point: at one point in the evening, I realized the top layers of our cake (the one you cut ceremoniously) had been sitting in a box in the back of the venue. Nobody bothered to tell us it was there, so it didn’t get unboxed and put on display until we were about to cut it. Well, I didn’t have anything to unbox the cake, which was taped shut tightly (the caterers said they couldn’t do it for liability reasons), and I was being pulled in a million directions. Out of nowhere, Eric came up to me and told me he’d take care of it. It wasn’t his responsibility whatsoever to open my cake box and put my cake on display — but he just did it. And it was such a weight off my shoulders in that moment of chaos when all I wanted to do was spend time with my family and friends. (And not track down a knife to open this box, a place to put the discarded box, etc., etc.)

Having Eric as our photographer was the best decision ever. If I were to put this long review into a single sentence, I’d just say: “He blew our expectations away with his photos, personality, and customer service — which is certainly a dying art.”

Thanks for everything, Eric!

P.S. His website in which you can view, share and download your pics is super cool and easy to use.

We had the absolute BEST experience with Eric as our wedding photographer. We had been in two other weddings that he had previously photographed - in both weddings he was kind, organized, and made everyone being photographed (including us!) so comfortable. And, the quality of his pictures speaks for itself - so professional, yet also warm and inviting.

It was an absolute no brainer for us to use him for our own wedding! He was one of the best parts of our day, and we’re so thrilled with all the photos we have. Eric knew exactly how to make our personalities and the essence of our day come to life through our pictures. We would recommend Eric through and through!!

Eric was just a wonderful photographer, and he was perfect for our wedding. Neither my husband nor I are particularly photogenic, at least when intentionally posing, we're more of the awkward variety, what the hell are you supposed to do with your hands, but Eric was able to get many amazing pictures for us. It was really great that he got to know us as a couple before the wedding, he kind of got a good feel for our personalities and what type of pictures we were looking for, it made the day of the wedding go very smoothly. He was great at giving guidance during the photos, telling me where to put my damn hands, and he really just made the whole experience much more fun that I expected it to be. I am not overly fond of posing for pictures so that was a very nice surprise. Should we get married again, yeah, no plans for that, we would definitely get Eric as the photographer again, totally worth it.

Eric was so much more than just our photographer—he became a true friend and an unwavering source of support throughout our wedding journey. From the start, it was clear how deeply he cares—not only about his art, but about the couples he works with. His passion, empathy, and attention to detail shine through in the photos he captures.

What set Eric apart was the way he took the time to genuinely get to know us—our story, our values, and what mattered most to us on our special day. He listened with care and used that understanding to help shape an experience that felt smooth, intentional, and authentically “us.”

On the day itself, Eric created space for meaningful moments. He gently encouraged us to pause—before the ceremony, during sunset, and later in the evening for photos—so we could slow down, breathe, and really take it all in. Those moments are now some of our most cherished memories, beautifully preserved through his lens.

Eric doesn’t just take photos—he captures the heart of a love story. And when you look at his work, you can truly feel the difference.

Besides my wife, choosing Eric, was the best choice I made for my wedding. For real. He is massive - yet invisible. He is no where to be seen but gets all the pictures of everyone everywhere. The compliments the night of the wedding went in this order: you guys are great together & the photographer is amazing. He even bustled my wife's dress for her when we couldn't figure it out. The photos he took are irreplaceable and his help was irreplaceable.

Eric was great to work with. Made us feel comfortable and the pictures turned out great.

He not only met my expectations but exceeded them! Such a nice person and so professional. The results are gorgeous and we love every photo.
