Our best wedding investment

We can’t recommend Will and Alex highly enough! They were extremely professional and super easy to work with (for us and our other vendors). Will has such an eye for creative, incredible shots and was so fun to be around. We love our pictures so much and we received so many compliments about him from our guests. Our wedding day was more enjoyable because of his involvement. We would hire Refract a million times over if we could!

Best in the business!

If you are looking for a photographer, look no further, Will is your guy! He has the unprecedented ability to be professional, while making you feel extremely comfortable on one of the most emotional days of your life. His constant encouragement, calm demeanor, communication and attention to detail alongside his talents is what makes Will the best in the business! He has the ability to see beauty where others may miss it, he found hidden gem locations for our first look and golden hour photos that turned out INCREDIBLE! He is a gifted man, not only with his craft as a photographer but who he is as a person and his ability to immediately connect with everyone he meets. He went above and beyond to make it such a special day for us, and put a great deal of love, effort and time into the final product - which we couldn't be more thrilled about. The photos speak for themselves, but more importantly to us are the positive life lasting memories he provided for not only us but our entire wedding party. We can't thank him enough for making our big day so special!

Very Professional and Friendly

Will was one of our favorite vendors at our wedding. He was professional and friendly. He brought a film camera and took a few pics on it which was a cool different style. :) Would definitly recommend him for you wedding/event.

Great energy and photos!

Will was extremely professional and genuinely excited to be part of our special day. He was smiling nonstop and that really helped us feel comfortable around the camera. He was also great at giving direction and cues for poses or angles and it showed in the final product! The pictures and video are amazing and we’re glad that we had someone as talented as he is to capture these moments for life.

Maternity Shoot

Will’s passion for his craft shines through in his work. He uses color and lighting to create artful photo compositions. He is knowledgeable and friendly enough to guide you through the process without feeling awkward in poses or uncomfortable at all. I will treasure the moments he has captured for our family, and can’t wait for our next photo session as our family grows.

Overall a pleasure to work with, and provides outstanding work. Can’t recommend more highly!

So happy with Refract Photography!

We thankfully decided to go with Refract Photography for our engagement shoot. Will was so easy to work with and made the whole shoot comfortable and fun. We now have the most amazing photos that we'll cherish for the rest of our lives. We couldn't be happier with the quality. Top-notch!

Awesome Photographer

We hired Will from Refract Photography for our wedding. From the start, I felt like he was one of my friends. He made us feel at ease and was always very professional. During the wedding, he made it fun and never made it awkward (we are a little shy being in front of a camera). He just went above and beyond. Made my wife tear up with the end results. Don’t look further. We highly recommend Will.

Coolest Photographer out that's ACTUALLY talented!

Such a fun experience. We had Will do our engagement pictures and boy was I nervous. My fiancé and I aren't very "pose for the camera" people. But Will made this such a painless process and actually really fun! He told us exactly what we needed to do with any and all poses. He was also very flexible with both location and time of the pictures (which was very important as I only had one morning/afternoon to do them). We had our dog Ozzie join in- and with how excited he got there was a lot of us needing to reset or turn around and walk again. But Will was very patient with us, and honestly I thought there was no way any of the pictures he got with Ozzie in them were going to be good. Will was able to capture him in such a natural state (crazy) and it actually be beautiful. I'm very grateful Will was our photographer for this shoot, and we will definitely be returning to him when we need more!

Surprise Engagement Photo Shoot

I recently hired Will to capture the special moment when I proposed to my girlfriend and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! He helped me pick out the perfect spot to do it on a hike and had excellent recommendations for the timing and lighting. He even completed the entire hike with just me the day before the proposal to make sure we had great locations and a plan in place.
On the day of the shoot, he was all set up way before we arrived and was in the perfect spot to capture the moment. He had great suggestions for different pictures we should take after the proposal and was so fun to work with. The photos he took were amazing and we couldn’t be happier with them!
Overall, I would highly recommend Will and Refract Photography to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and personable photographer. Thank you Will!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
