Didi of Rustic Dreams Photography is an angel.

I found Didi through one of the many wedding websites that spam your email inbox as soon as you google the word "wedding"- haha! However, Didi, and her company Rustic Dreams Photography caught my eye. Her prices were phenomenal compared to other vendors I had been looking at. When I visited her website and browsed her gallery I was able to immediately determine that her low prices were absolutely NOT due to a lack of quality, as her work was gorgeous and the information on her page made her seem fun and interesting.

I wasted no time contacting her- and in all my haste I didn't even notice that she was based out of Washington. My wedding was set to be in the mountains of NC and I quickly prepared myself for her rejection email. But that was not the case! She was happy and excited to make the trip- at no extra cost to us! As we emailed back and forth I could see that she was a kindred spirit and an incredibly sweet and loving person who truly just follows her passion and was dedicated to serving us.

Many people tried to worry us about the fact that she was not local, and her prices were clearly "too good to be true." And I am happy to say that she absolutely proved everyone wrong when she showed up on time, cheery and adorable, and proceeded to deliver everything and more she had promised. Her attitude was wonderful and upbeat, all of my bridal party and family loved her pieces and she even stayed later than she was supposed to in order to capture our family rock show toward the end of the night!

I can't say enough about how lovely Didi is. We are very newly married, and have only received a few sneak peek pictures from her so far, but we are on the edge of chairs to see what incredible work she will yield!

Didi is the bomb!
My husband and I had a destination wedding in Charleston, SC. We were originally going to have my husband's aunt take pictures, but family issues came up, and she had to back out at the last minute, which left me in a really tight bind. Photos were the one thing that were really important to me. I posted all over asking about a photographer, and Didi got a hold of me. I am SO glad she did! Hiring her was one of the best decisions of the wedding. She traveled all the way out to Charleston, and did an INCREDIBLE job. She answered every question I had, and asked what I was looking for, a list of must-have pictures, anything I didn't want, you name it. I was really looking for a lot of fun, candid pictures, and she really delivered. On the other side of that, every posed picture we have is just stunning. I've never liked the way I look in pictures, but I love all of my wedding pictures And so did all of my family and friends!

She was on time for everything, dressed professionally, and had an ease to read/understand contract, and no hidden costs or any other unpleasant surprises. And she had a GREAT attitude! From start to finish she was great to work with. My family loved her to pieces! She put everyone at ease and was friendly all night. I don't think my wedding would have been the same without her! And I don't know how she managed it, but she was everywhere at once taking pictures,without being obtrusive or in the way.
Thanks to Didi, I have several pictures of every memorable moment of my wedding. I'll definitely use her again for other big life moments, and I absolutely recommend her!
