Diane was fantastic! She was one of the best decisions I made during the wedding planning process. The actual day of the wedding can be a completely hectic and frazzled time and Diane was a calming force who was able to get me back into the moment to bring out the best genuine emotion for our pictures. She captured our love and affection and I can't express how happy we are with how the pictures came out - they truly captured the spirit of the day. I look over them (sometimes a little too often) and feel l like i am reliving the day again - all because of Diane. Thank you Diane - you were amazing, talented and a truly great person ! :))))

Diane is so awesome!!! From the first moment we met Diane she was so easy to talk to and was so open to our ideas. She took her own time to help us find the most perfect place to take our wedding photos. She really cares about capturing what exactly you want on your special day. She will work with you until you are completely satisfied. I just can't say enough about what a great photographer Diane really is. I have worked with many photographers, but Diane is one that I will continue to contact for future photo sessions. She is very talented and has so much passion for her work. She really is the best!!!!!

Diane is great! She is very professional but also a lot of fun to work with. She captured our wedding day perfectly, we couldn't be happier with her finished product. She knew what we wanted and executed flawlessly.

I am so happy with our decision to hire Diane. From the first time we met with her, I knew she was the right fit for our wedding. Her prices were reasonable and she makes you feel very comfortable. Diane was great the day of our wedding, helping to keep everything organized and running smoothly, all while taking great pictures. I feel like I'm reliving my wedding day each time I look at the pictures! Thank you, Diane!

Diane was amazing at my wedding!! Not only did she take breathtaking pictures of the entire night she really helped run everything, from walking in during the ceremony to cutting the cake. I cannot imagine my wedding day without her, I can not say enough good things about her!

Working with Diane and her team was one of the best wedding-related decisions we made! I knew Diane was the photographer for us when our first meeting ran well over an hour because I couldn't stop spewing all of my ideas to her and she loved them all! She was quick to respond on email and super flexible scheduling and then rescheduling our engagement photo session when we had to cancel last minute because a blizzard cancelled my fiance's flight. When I thought it was a brilliant idea to take those photos outside in early March, in a spot full of mud and cold winds, Diane was the perfect professional and we got some killer shots out of the session. She was a welcoming sense of calm leading up to the wedding and let me share my pinterest page of photos I wanted with her. Our actual wedding day brought terrible, non-stop rain, but Diane and Jess made the best of it, and even though we couldn't take any pictures outside, they made up for it with some really creative photos in our venue. They also handled our large bridal party of 15 with ease and "released" everyone to the bar with lightning speed. We also used Diane's photobooth, which her husband Dave ran, and it was a highlight for our guests. Not only did we get a disc of all the booth photos, but our guests were able to create our guest book using the 2nd prints. You will not be disappointed with this team!

Not only is Diane fun, she is fantastic at what she does. She has an incredible eye for photography and it is clearly her passion in life. From the get-go, she was on top of organizing herself for our wedding and even helped me with writing my vendor itinerary. She's super busy, but somehow manages to take the time to get to know each couple's needs, and treats each wedding with the utmost respect. Everyone at our wedding thought she was just wonderful and had nothing but good things to say about her. Our banquet coordinator actually thought that Diane and I were old friends because we were all having so much fun during post-ceremony pictures. She is worth every cent! She's honest, talented and full of positive energy. Plus, appointments, picture selections, etc, can all be done on her website. You'd be hard-pressed to find a better photographer!

Diane and Jess were wonderful! Diane was great to meet with before the wedding and very responsive to all my questions and concerns. They were also great to work with during the wedding; focused and direct. The pictures we have seen so far are amazing. We also used their photobooth, which they also did a great job on. We can't wait to see the rest of the pictures!

Diane Parsons and Diane Parsons Photography are the BEST and any bride who may come upon this while researching wedding photographers, just stop your search and call Parsons. Diane Parsons and Jess are flawless. Of the hundreds of decisions that go into a wedding, choosing Parsons was one of my best (if not THE best) choices I made. Diane, thank you FOR EVERYTHING! When it came to professionalism, flexibly, vision, getting to know her clients and meeting their personal needs Parsons has been TOP NOTCH. Also, I unfortunately experienced some dress issues (which belong in another review for my dress designer) and Diane could not have been more understanding of some of my concerns about the pictures and working with me extensively to help me make the most of our pictures so that I felt as great as possible about everything. Your wedding day will come and, sadly, it will go. But, you will have the memories and the pictures forever - and if you work with Parsons Photography you will not regret it. Also, Diane and Jess were wonderful to have at your wedding. They use their endless experience with weddings to help everyone feel comfortable and be at their best - and they are kind, patient and professional at every turn! Thank you so much for everything Parsons and we look forward to working with you for pictures for many many years to come!

Diane, Dave and Jess with Parson's Photo are AMAZING! We worked primarily with Dave and Jess but Diane was at our meetings and she does great work too! All 3 of them are extremely professional and friendly and their photos are just gorgeous! We love our engagement photos and our wedding photos are just beautiful. My wife and I look forward to working with them for all our future photography needs!

What can I say, Diane is a great, wonderful, enthusiastic photographer as professional and personally. She has an eye that the pictures tells it all. I hired her for my parents' 25th anniversary party and the pictures were absolutely beautiful and pleased with the results. I started recommending her to my brides and they just loved her work. They were so happy with the pictures and how talent Diane was on their wedding day.
