What primary photographic style do you identify with?
If you have a wedding coming up or any event for that matter I could not recommend Lance Ek with Reflections Creative Photography enough! He made our wedding day so special. Throughout the months leading up he was so easy to contact with any questions or concerns we had. We usually had an email response within minutes. He also took it upon himself to write out a timeline for our wedding day so that everyone knew where they had to be at what time for pictures, etc. and forwarded that to all other caterers, and staff members involved so that they knew what time they needed to be finished as well. That was such a huge stress relief for us, because planning a wedding can definitely be very hectic the week of, especially with coordinating times and places on top of everything else. Lance was so kind and genuine with the perfect mix of sarcastic to keep the day extremely light hearted and fun! He truly made me feel like such a special bride. He helped with posing for pictures, finding the perfect spots, constantly straightening out and holding my train when we were traveling around and overall just making the day one to remember. We unfortunately didn’t get to meet his wife Linda as she was under the weather on our big day but she was reaching out to him all day checking in to see how we were doing and reminding him of all the important things he needed to do. I’ve never met more genuine and kind people who work so hard to cater to your every need. On top of all of that we also had our first preview of sneak peak picture’s that same night by the time we were back in our hotel room. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t picky with pictures being taken of me and I was just absolutely blown away by the quality and detail of Lance’s work with our pictures. He truly made me feel so beautiful. For any future events we have where we need photographers my husband and I can guarantee Lance with Reflections Creative Photography will be our choice! I cannot thank him enough for making our special day everything we ever dreamed of!
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Oh My Gosh, Carly & Billy your review made me blush, it was so touching and detailed. It’s funny, the things we do, we always do, for every couple and we don’t think about it, it’s second nature to us because it’s the way it’s supposed to be done. But when a Bride details the day and what those little things that we take for granted to do, it’s so flattering to know that we’re doing it the way it should be done. Loved working with you and Billy, your crazy Wedding Party and wonderful Family and Friends! I’m glad you loved your images, candidly, it would have been hard to take a bad picture of you and you did a great job making Billy look well, (there goes that sarcastic humor again). Thank You so very much for allowing us (me in person and Linda texting me 50 times, to make sure what she normally does was being handled as best as possible by yours truly). It would be a true joy to be part of any future celebration you, your family or friends have. Linda and I want to wish you both a lifetime of LOVE and Happiness – we know you will!!

I spoke with John who is from my hometown and he was very detailed, professional and sweet. If you do not go with their service you will be missing out.
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Thanks for the review but I think you might have our Company mixed up with another one. We don't have a John with us, but you're right that of new couples don't go with Reflections Creative Photography they will be missing out!

They love what they do!
I reached out to Reflections about inquiry for my October wedding but unfortunately your studio was booked for the day. However, Lance worked hard to locate available photographers for my date and sent many recommendations my way after not being able to help us for our wedding day. This was the first vendor I've worked with who has gone above and beyond for a potential customer. The stress of finding appropriate vendors can be overwhelming at times but Lance was able to reduce the stress immediately after sending many other great options. I have seen many beautiful brides photographed by Reflections and although I will not be one of them, I was grateful for the support they offered me. I was able to locate and book an incredible photographer and am very excited for October! Thank you!
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Dear Sarah,
Thank you for your beautiful review. We’re so sorry we could not have been part of your Special Day, unfortunately October dates are gobbled up so quickly, in your case from one day to the next. Linda and I felt so badly, so we thought we would try and lend a helping hand. Many of the photographers that responded to our “ISO” message in Lehigh Valley Weddings, we unknow to us, so we took a little time reviewing their details and hopefully gave you a good number of good choices to work with. Not sure where you ended up, but no matter where, we wish you all the love and happiness in your lives together.
Are you interested?

Great Experience from Start to Finish!
We could not be happier with our decision to choose Reflections Creative Photography to capture our big day! From the get-go, Lance was straightforward, professional, responsive, reliable, and accommodating. His positive energy made us feel comfortable every step of the way. Shawnna stepped in when Lance was unable to photograph our wedding, and she too was very easy going, kind, and patient. She took some breathtaking photos that we will cherish for years to come. We highly recommend!
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Dear Brandi and Chris,
Thank you so much for your kind words and we are thrilled that you are so happy with your wedding photographs. It is always our goal from start to finish to give you the perfect wedding day, photography wise or in any other way we can help accomplish it. We feel that it is important to provide you with as much information, direction, suggestions, and experiences all while hopefully showcasing our love for what we do and how we will extend it to your Special Day as well. Linda and I are terribly sorry that we were not able to be with you on your actual wedding day, however we knew that Shawnna would be a perfect match for you and provide you with a calming day and outstanding photographic images. All of us at Reflections Creative Photography wish you both a lifetime of love, happiness, and amazing smiles like you had on your wedding day.
Note to others reading this review; it should be an item on your photography check list to make sure the photographer you are choosing has some one(s) from their Studio to back them up in case of an unforeseen circumstance. In our case the reoccurrence of a previous injury that concerned us enough that we might not be able to provide the quality product that we would be proud to deliver. We are fortunate that our staff has been with us for many years, shoots in our studio style and are as committed to making our couples day as perfect as possibly can.

Reflections Creative Photography - Amazing
We can’t say enough wonderful things about Reflections Creative Photography. From beginning to end, Lance and Linda were extremely professional, helpful, fun, and as their name suggests, very creative. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch photography.
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Dear Greg & Ruth,
Thank you for such kind words. We both loved working with the both of you and your Wedding Party, family & friends. From a photography and personal standpoint, it was so obvious how in love the two of you are together. Having dinner with you at the venue gave us a great view of the facility, but more so of the two of you and learning of your stories and how it grew into your love story. We really appreciate your 5 star review but even more so the honor of being part of your very Special Day and the beginning of your married lives together. We all wish you a lifetime of LOVE and Happiness!

Vow Renewal/Covid Reception
We couldn't begin to tell you how awesome Lance and Shawna were for our numerous wedding ceremony and parties!
Covid stopped our original wedding from happening but we went ahead and did a wedding in our backyard where Shawna was present for that event and even took us to our venue to get some wonderful and beautiful shots! She was so personable and flexible and made sure she got any moment we really wanted to capture!
Lance was awesome and was able to help secure him for our view renewal two years later (agter several rescedules) and was able to do our actual wedding reception and view renewal. He's timeliness he provided before our day was helpful to try and get things going on time and let our families know when they needed to be available.
Our guests loved his sense of humor especially during the happy tear moments and made several of our guests laughlaugh!
He asked several times throughout the night if we needed any other photos...my own regret was not making my own list to give to Lance because every time he took a photo..another one popped in my head. We highly recommend Lance and his photographers to capture your special day!
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Dear Laura & Matt,
Thanks for your wonderful review, we really appreciate it! We know all of this was a long time coming but we know it was worth it from our conversations, your guests and the look on your faces. Personally, I am so please that I was available to photograph your Vow Renewal and Wedding Reception. It was a true joy to be part of such a joyous occasion. Know that all of us here at Reflections wish you and your family a lifetime of LOVE and happiness.

Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Kimmarie & Dan,
Thanks for your 5 Star Review of Camille’s ability to capture the Wedding Day of your Dreams. Camille and all our staff associates come with years of experience and the ability, the insight to create the images that matter. It’s always a treat for me to see what and how they capture the LOVE and togetherness of each couple, especially, when I have not had the opportunity to meet those couples myself and in your case I couldn’t have been more pleased. Please know that everyone here at Reflections wish you and your blended family a lifetime of LOVE and Happiness. Thanks again for allowing us to be part of your very Special Celebration.

Made our day extra special
What an amazing photographer and couple! Since our first phone call I knew he was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Lance is the kindest, patient, professional, talented, and knowledgeable man. Unfortunately, we weren't able to meet Linda since she was sick, but Lance was on the ball and helped make our day perfect. I will recommend them to every person who needs a photographer! Thank you so much for helping make our wedding day extra special!
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Dear Kelley & Justin
WOW! Thank You sooooo very much! Your Wedding was awesome, but more-so the two of you, your Bridal Party, Family & Friends were just so easy to be around and interact with – even your crazy band friends (only kidding). Unfortunately, Linda was under the weather, but as you know she texted me 50 times to make sure I was treating you the way she would. She loved looking at your Wedding images, she even said I did OK!! Seriously, it was a joy and honor to be part of your Special Day. Linda and I both wish you a lifetime of LOVE and Happiness, which if your Wedding Day was any indication of what is to come, you surely will!

Absolutely Amazing
Lance was absolutely amazing throughout every step of the way with our wedding. I knew from the moment we spoke on the phone that we would hit it off. Unfortunately on our special day his wife was feeling under the weather and stayed home...but rest assured Lance stepped it up. After flooding him with Pinterest pic ideas- he came fully prepared and definitely delivered. Not only did my husband and I enjoy having him, but our guests raved about him as well. Lance ensured that everything I asked for was received and then some. Upfront he indicated a sneak peek of pics within 24 hrs and my final pictures back within a week, and I thought, "mmhmm yeah right". But.... he absolutely did!!! Lance was everything I asked for and more. I would highly recommend them hands down anytime!
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Dear Katrin & Tom,
And lets be honest, this Wedding Photography was all Katrin, stunning and knowing what she wanted, which we LOVE! Yes, unfortunately Linda had a reaction to the latest Flu Vaccine, but no worries, she has taught me well in how to satisfy a Bride. Your Wedding was awesome, so much LOVE in the room. It was also so nice to see two families meld into one. Thank You for such an awesome review and we wish the two of you and your blended families a lifetime of LOVE and Happiness!

Priceless memories, incredible experience
Lance Ek’s organization was impeccable. He had every detail down and made the wedding photography a well-oiled machine. His assistant, Shauna, was spectacular as well. She is clearly a master at her craft. We felt at ease by her warm presence, and the ideas she had for the photos were absolutely brilliant. She was able to capture the beauty and excitement of the moment.
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Theodora & Will,
Thank You for you 5 Star review of our services and of Shawnna a long time member of our staff. As Linda and I were already obligated with a previous couple on your Wedding Day, we had no hesitation in offering Shawnna to capture your very Special Day at one of very favorite spots in the Lehigh Valley, The Historic Hotel Bethlehem. Looking over your images you are correct that Shawnna is a Master of her Craft and always has some very good photographic options for capturing the very best of our Wedding Couples as she did for the both our you. Thank You for this wonderful review but more so for allowing us to be part of your very Special Day. All of us here at Reflections wish you a lifetime of LOVE and Happiness in the lives together.

Wedding 10/15/22
Lance was wonderful to work with. If challenges came up, he was willing to work with us to fix them. For example, he was happy to make some corrections to our photos that we requested after receiving our USB drive.
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Dear Pamela & Caleb,
Thanks for allowing Reflections Creative Photography to be part of your very Special Day. Your Day was magical from the Weather, your Mountain Top Venue and the Two of you, just listening to how you met on your 1st date during your Wedding Vows, it was all so very Special. As for “after the Wedding”, our goal is to make sure you are 100% satisfied – converting some photo’s to B&W, removing windblown hair – what ever make you happy! Thanks Again and know that we all here at Reflections wish you a lifetime of LOVE and Happiness!

Best. Photographer. Ever.
If you are looking for the best photographer around (with an amazing staff too)...look no further! Lance was absolutely the best to work with from start to finish! He was always willing to answer questions, emails, calls, etc. and always kept us in the loop with everything going on! We chose the wedding package that included an engagement session and the photos did not disappoint! Lance himself was already booked for our wedding, so we had the privilege of working with Shawnna, who in my opinion, was absolutely amazing! She was by far one of the best photographers I've ever had and had such a warm and caring personality. Our engagement pictures were awesome and she recommended the location that had so many photographic opportunities! If we didn't think it could get better, we were wrong, because our wedding was the absolute best! Shawnna was an angel with the ladies, even helping me put on my dress and work out a few kinks, and took the best photos of the groomsmen when she met them at the church. She was up for literally anything we wanted. She was able to recommend awesome poses plus do all the traditional poses, but was able to have fun with the bridal party when we were dancing and jumping in the air for some unique photos! I asked for some pretty unique photos throughout the day (photos with each table, a group photo with everyone on the dance floor, group photo outside of the church), and she nailed them all! She literally captured every moment from start to finish and we are absolutely thrilled with our pictures!
Honestly, if I could give Reflections more than a 5 star rating, I would. Choosing a photographer (especially for your wedding) is nerve-wracking. It happens once and you want it to be perfect and for the pictures to be amazing. If you want to put your mind at ease, book them. NOW! You won't be disappointed and you'll have the most amazing pictures from your special day! It's worth every penny!
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Pamela & Mike,
Yes, Shawnna is AMAZING! We have been blessed to have her as a member of our team for several years and everyone love’s her and her artwork. Thank you so much for your stunning review of her work and Reflections overall. As you noted we don’t offer a cookie cutter Wedding Day, it’s capturing your day and all that’s part of, that it is goal and offering. We are all so happy that you were pleased with both your Engagement and Wedding images and willing to share your thoughts with all those couples that like you are looking for that right fit. Thanks again and know that all of us at Reflections Creative Photography wish you a lifetime of LOVE and Happiness.

AMAZING staff! We had Lance do our engagement photos, Shawnna do our wedding photos, and Chris do our wedding video. Shawnna and Chris worked so in sync with each other and covered all their bases with certain shots, lighting, etc. Shawnna was able to handle my very large family and all of their craziness, and she did it with such patience and grace. I recommend using Reflections for any of your photography needs! You can't go wrong with anyone working there!
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Dear Danielle & Marco,
Thank you for your amazing review, we are honored! It always is so meaningful to photograph a couple and then to be asked by one of their siblings to be part of their Wedding Day – that speaks volumes to us – thank you! I had so much fun with the two of you photographing your engagement session and I know Shawnna & Chris felt the same way this past Saturday. It looked like an awesome, awesome Wedding. Know that everyone involved with your Special Day, here at Reflections wish you both a Lifetime of LOVE and Happiness!

Amazing!
Lance and his team are INCREDIBLE ! You shouldn’t look anywhere else for a photographer . From the start lance was extremely responsive and constantly checking in with me , which is so helpful in the craziness of wedding planning. He basically had an entire plan going into it, but was also receptive to feedback from us . CJ was our photographer , and he was amazing ! He had so many great ideas for shots and turned out some absolutely gorgeous photos . He kept the day running smoothly and was able to capture the personality of not only us, but our guests as well . Overall, five stars and highly recommend reflections photography !
Reflections Creative Photography's reply:
Dear Tori & Matt,
It was a true pleasure to work with you both and be part of your Special Day, a day that turned out to be for us the busiest of 2022. We appreciate your kind words, but it does go both ways – you were both receptive to our suggestions based on years of experience but were not afraid to put your own twists on things. I do think that CJ did an excellent job of capturing the day and all the emotions. The look on Matt’s face, as you came down the aisle, would tell anyone how much in LOVE he is in! Thanks again for your awesome 5 Star Review and all of us here at Reflections Creative Photography wish you both years of LOVE and Happiness together!

Shawnna
Associate Photographer
Shawwna was the 1st Associate we added to our team several years ago. She shoots in our studio style, but with her own personal flare! If Linda and I are already booked, Shawnna would probably be your photographer. Here’s a link to some of her work.
Camille is one of our newer associates. To date we have her focused on Northern PA. Her style is a little more casual than ours, but we and the couples have used her to date love it. Additionally, if you are having a Barn Wedding, she’s the one we would recommend, if available.
CJ is one of our newest Associate, but that doesn’t mean he has a lake of experience, he’s been photographing Weddings and Modeling Sessions for years. His style is very similar to ours with a nice blending of his own ideas. CJ is willing to travel anywhere we need him to, so he will be a great asset to our organization and the Bride’s love him!
John is our of our newest Associate, but that doesn’t mean he has a lake of experience, he’s been photographing Weddings and Special Events for years. His style is very similar to ours with a nice blending of his own ideas. John is willing to travel just about anywhere in the Tri-State area we need him to, so he will be a great asset to our organization and the Couple's love him!
Meet Krista – A new associate of Reflections, but not new to the industry as you can see by her work. It’s a awesome mixture of romantic; formally and casually captured images plus; stylish casual fun images of both the couple and their Wedding Party and her use of light, both on and off camera is always just right. If you have the opportunity to work with Krista you’ll be smiling from ear to ear.
Lance & Linda are the best! Sincere, professional, and truly caring. You can absolutely see the bond that they form with each couple they work with. The pictures they take of my facility have always been my favorite! They capture not only the beauty in each event they are at, but also help me as a venue by showcasing our space in the most amazing ways. I would highly recommend Reflections Creative Photography and look forward to seeing them at many more events to come!
The Palace Center owes a lot of our beautiful photographs to Reflections Creative Photography. We have known Lance and Linda for 10 years now and have a wonderful relationship. They take their job very seriously and passionately that every wedding they work on is a piece of art. we highly recommend their services.
LOVE LOVE LOVE working with Lance, Linda and the entire team at Reflections Creative Photography. Not only amazing photos but personalized one on one service with attention to detail in each shot as well as helping the wedding party look perfect from noticing if the flowers are titled to the girls necklaces to helping bustle a dress. Always going above and behind. Plus they are amazingly sweet and easy to work with. Highly recommend Reflections Creative Photography!
