Thank you for giving us the gift of these lifelong memories!

I called James a few weeks before the wedding. He was very professional and had a call with my daughter-in-law and me to discuss the entire event. He understood our vision for the wedding and executed it to the fullest. He drove from Maryland to New York and stayed until the end of the wedding at midnight. He captured the entire wedding with all the love and energy that came with it. I would recommend James for his professionalism and quality of work.

I don't know where to start. In the past when I held meetings in my home, I would show a video of a wedding James shot. Couples would get so involved in what they were seeing, they forgot they were at a meeting with me. James does excellent work. He work well with other vendors, and I would recommend him to any couple.

James is an experienced photographer. He will take the time to sit down with brides (yes sit down) instead of simply sending an impersonal text about his quotes. He is actually passionate about his work, which is missing in many wedding vendors nowadays. He wants to know what the bride wants out of her wedding experience and how she wants to remember the day. Highly recommended professional and truly a pleasure to work with (or even to sit down and chat with).
