Brooke is Great!

Brooke was amazing to work with. She went above and beyond for my wedding to research my venue and come up with unique ideas and was so easy to work with! I enjoy working with her for all of my family’s photography needs.

Macias Wedding

Brooke was a very professional yet outgoing photographer to help us capture our special day. Due to unforeseen circumstances our session was cut short but her response to the entire situation was still very great. We are very happy we chose Speicher Photography to make our memories come to life.

Disappointing Experience

My frustration with Brooke Speicher Photography comes down to communication. Brooke was ill on my wedding and did not attend. She sent a lovely colleague to take photos of my wedding and we had an amazing day. After the wedding, I anticipated getting my photos within 6 weeks, as per the contract. I received my first photos after about 6.5 weeks, because Brooke was experiencing technical difficulties uploading them to an online gallery. After I started receiving photos, there were many I was missing. I would let her know some were missing, and she would tell me that she had them, and that I would receive them "this evening". When the photos did not come "that evening" I would get concerned. I would reach out again, and again, sometimes not getting a response for 3 days. I would call, asking for her to call me back, she never did. I would text, and wouldn't get a response for days. Each time I asked for missing photos she told me she had them. I was getting frustrated having to ask, so I asked if there was a reason I couldn't see all the pictures taken that day, to look for the missing ones myself. I thought then I could stop bugging her for them. She offered to send me the folder of raw photos. When I didn't receive them, I reached out again, and was told she was not contractually obligated to provide them, despite being the one who offered them up in the first place. Each time I had asked for photos, she had had them, so naturally I assumed it was acceptable to keep asking. I've been told Brooke's colleague took more photos of my day than a Bride would typically receive, and it's true that I have A LOT of photos. They are beautiful, and I genuinely love the ones that I have. But to this day, nearly 10 weeks after my wedding, I still don't have all my photos. I'm missing pictures of people in my wedding party walking down the aisle, and some posed pictures with family and friends. I know for a fact these photos were taken, but I guess I'm just not going to see them. Due to the inconvenience, I requested a 10% credit be returned to my card. She told me she processed it, but it never went through. My wedding day was the best day of my life, but this post-wedding experience has been incredibly disappointing due to inconsistent and (in my opinion) unprofessional communication.

Absolutely the worst photographer.

I am getting married soon, July 12th and I saw Brooke’s photos and I thought she would be a good fit. Nooo she is horrible. When I was first talking to her before we payed for her services she was very responsive, the minute she was paid in full she stop responding all together. I have emailed her 2 times in March and I still don't have a response. I had to find a new photographer and I love her (Alacia Adrienne Photography is her facebook name). if you are trying to find a reliable photographer that you paid thousand of dollars for you can trust her. Please Do NOT get Brooke unless you want to go to court cause she can’t keep a contract. Brides should not have to worry about if the photographer will show up on their wedding Day and expectant moms should not have to pay someone so much if they can’t do their jobs.

Scam artist

My friend has been waiting MONTHS for Brooke to send him his wedding photos and at first she kept giving him the run around. Recently she was ignoring all forms of contact before eventually blocking him after he spent nearly $2,000.00 for his pictures. Shameful.
