I must admit that initially I was unfamiliar with Larry Spencer and his work as I am fairly new to the area.

What struck me prior to hiring Larry was my fiancé being so adamant about selecting Larry as our photographer. It was almost a pre-requisite to me saying yes to his proposal!

My fiancé went to a wedding ten years ago and, out of all of the details (which were beautiful he always adds), the one thing he remembers most is Larry Spencer stopping traffic in the middle of downtown Cleveland to get a few shots that just spoke to him as he was shooting. That type of passion served as a 10 year old referral that would be an amazing choice!

What I enjoyed the most about working with Larry is his wonderful use of lights,  his attention to detail, and his creativity. He really wants to get to know the couple he's working with to provide the best experience and product you desire.

Our day would not have been nearly as special had Larry Spencer Photography not been there.

I highly encourage you to choose him to cover your events as I can promise you he'll capture all of the moments worth remembering!

Larry is a highly skilled, professional, and personable photographer. My husband and I spent months researching and discussing different wedding photographers. My mom came across Spencer Photography and from the first contact we knew it was a great choice. During the initial contact Larry was prompt in responding and answered any and all questions that we had. Out of the photographers we were looking at his photos were one of the few where we could actually see the quality and art behind the photographs he took. We chose him to shoot our wedding and our engagement shoot. The engagement shoot really helped us get better acquainted with Larry and his personality before the wedding, which was great. For our wedding he was on-time and prompt and adapted with any delays or fiascoes that presented themselves throughout the day. Our pictures came out great, it was a nice blend of candid photos along with posed shots with the people who were most important to us. Your wedding day goes by so fast and everything seems like a blur so It was great to be able to look back at our wedding pictures and relive the day and get to experience it again through the photographs. The wedding albums are also gorgeous and there are many options to choose from. Larry was wonderful to work with, you can tell he enjoys working in his talent and truly makes his work an art. We had two photographers for our wedding and his assistant was also amazing and professional. We have no regrets and we highly recommend Spencer Photography you will not be disappointed!

Having Larry photograph our wedding was by far one of the best decisions i made during wedding planning. He has such a passion and love for his craft and it certainly comes through on film. He makes sure to get the exact perfect angle and makes sure the lighting is impecable. Not only is he incredibly professional, but he makes everything so incredibly comfortable as well. It honestly felt like we had a long time friend photographing our wedding. He listened to what we both were looking for and made sure to represent it in our pictures, and he certainly pays incredible attention to what we found important. Not to mention all of the pictures turned out SPECTACULAR! Picking just a few to print was impossible! Larry did our save the dates as well, and when we sent them out, ALL of our guests commented on how beautiful they were and high quality they were!!He is not only a phenomenal photographer, but he cares about his clients and having a photographer who cares about your special day as much as you do is rare, but we found that in Larry! He'll definitely be used for our future photography needs!!

My husband and I really enjoyed having Larry be our photographer. He was very creative with how he took every picture and we absolutely adore how each and every one of them came out. If we ever need another photographer for any occasion in the future, we will absolutely ask Larry. His work is amazing, and I recommend him to anybody needing a photographer!

I would like to thank Larry for making the 465 mile journey to Indiana to capture my daughter Sarah's big day. As I am sure most brides to be are very nervous, Larry made Sarah feel at ease and kept in constant contact with her to ensure her day went smooth and the way she wanted it. Larry started the day out with Sarah at 7:00 A.M while she was putting on her make-up and getting her hair done. Larry did not stop until 10 p.m when the reception was wrapping up. As for the pictures they are truly AMAZING. Sarah and Sean as well as all are family and friends cannot give Larry enough praise for the quality of his work, they are without a doubt the best pictures I have ever seen. Every time I look at them i feel like i am reliving that day again, and for that I thank you. I will certainly use Spencer photography for any future events. Larry Spencer is a pro's pro, a true master of his craft.

Hands down Larry is the single greatest person ever! Not only does he take amazing photos, he ensures that your every need and want are taken care of. Seriously, if you don't hire Spencer Photography to do anything for you, you're just plain wrong. From start to finish he was the best investment my husband and I made for our wedding. From our engagement pictures to our wedding photo album, we loved it all! Larry is officially an honorary family member with how he treated us. We can not say enough nice things about Spencer Photography! You will never regret the decision to go with him.

Wow! Larry Spencer was absolutely amazing. You get so much more than what you pay for when you work with Larry. He was worth every penny (and then some). He spends hours with you in consultation so that he gets the exact look that you want. He did our engagement pictures, my solo bridal shoot just days before the wedding, and our wedding pictures. The photos are absolutely stunning. He just captured the emotion of the day so well. He truly is an artist and he has mastered this craft. I have had countless family members and friends ask who did our photography because they are so impressed by his work. Not only is his work beautiful, but he is great to work with. His presence just puts you at ease. He will hustle to get the perfect shot (including taking pics in the pouring rain, laying on the ground, in the middle of the street). He helped us develop our day-of timeline which made the day go smoothly. He is quick with communication and he was able to get us all of our wedding photos just 1 week after the wedding, which is unheard of in this line of work. I could not recommend him more highly. Thank you, Larry, for capturing the memories which we will take with us for the rest of our lives.

Where do I even begin? Choosing Spencer Photography for my engagement and wedding photos was the best decision I made for my wedding! I researched dozens of photographers in the Canton/Akron/Cleveland area trying to find the perfect fit to my artistic style taste and package needs. As soon as I stumbled upon Spencer Photography, I knew he was the perfect fit for my wedding this past October of 2018 - and I couldn't have been more right! Larry is the owner and main photographer of Spencer Photography, and let me tell you, he knows how to work the camera and make the least photogenic people look fantastic in any picture! My husband and I decided to invest in Spencer Photography for our engagement and wedding photos as soon as we met with Larry to learn more about his investment. Larry is a very personable guy and will make you feel super comfortable in any situation (like being insanely nervous on your wedding day). To be quite honest, my wedding would have not gone as smoothly as it had if it were not for Larry helping me to coordinate the exact times of every important event of the day, and making sure that the timing of every event was on point. He literally made our wedding experience the true experience that it was. Not only did he help with coordination, but he completely calmed my nerves and anxiousness about family members who do not like to be photographed or involved, and even got them to open up and be involved in taking photos (and captured them genuinely smiling and laughing too!). My husband and I both agreed that Larry is the one person we hired for our wedding that truly made the day so beautiful. After having two engagement picture sessions with him, my husband and I knew exactly how to stand, act natural, pose and whatnot by our wedding day after Larry coached us and gave us tips throughout the first two sessions we had with him. That made taking photos during our wedding day even more exciting and fun since we were comfortable with what to do! We received our wedding photos within a week of our wedding - all my married friends were jealous since theirs took months to be ready! We even ordered large canvas prints to hang over our bed and had those hanging over our bed by November! The designing process for our wedding album was a lot of fun, and Larry was very flexible in adding and changing to what we wanted. Our album is GORGEOUS. It's real leather-bound and we chose a gorgeous deep burgundy color with gold plating and gold-edged pages (which nicely reflected our wedding colors). This album, with no doubt, is the centerpiece of our family room area. We couldn't be happier with our entire experience with Spencer Photography, and we know that he will forever be our photographer for our important events in life!

It would be an understatement to say that choosing Spencer Photography was the best decision we made involving our wedding. Following Larry’s work years before I had ever thought about getting married, I knew that when the time came, he was the guy! Fast forward about five years, I got my ring and the first thing I did after all the celebrating was I called Larry. Fun Fact: Larry knew about my husband and I’s engagement BEFORE my family (sorry mom). It was important that we secured the date we wanted right away! He has a talent for turning a 2D picture into a masterpiece filled with all of the emotions from that very moment the memory was captured. I am blessed to have such beautiful portraits of our wedding and the honor of working with Larry and his assistant.

My husband and I are more than pleased with our decision to use Larry as our photographer for our wedding this past October. He spent so much time getting to know us on a personal level prior to the wedding that it made the big day a lot less stressful in front of the camera. We initially had an engagement session downtown where we had a fun photo shoot at night - which we loved. Then to our wedding day- he met us early in the morning as we got ready - each at a different location, then our ceremony photos at the church and lastly joined us until the closing of our reception capturing all of the important moments from start to finish. Our photos turned out amazing and his style was elegant and exactly what we were looking for. When we received our prints and album we were actually blown away by the beauty and quality and will truly cherish the memories now for a lifetime. We cannot thank him and his amazing assistant enough. They are true professionals who love what they do and really care about their clients and the quality of work they provide.
