Magical moments caught in time w/ an Amazing Photography Eye 👁‍🗨

My husband and I had the extreme pleasure of working with a proffessional photographer for the first time.
David Taylor is not only polite, but his photography eye 👁‍🗨 caught some amazing pictures of our wedding.
He kept within our schedule asked and moved in every direction possible to capture every moment of the 3 hours we hired him for.
He saw things that were funny and touching and compiled a beautiful colaboration of pictures that we will treaseure for the rest of our lives.
My husband and I can't say Thank you enough to David for traveling so very far to get to us and provide us with magical moments caught in time.
We will be hiring David again and highly suggest you hire him as well.

Awesome Romantic Photographer

We hired David for our wedding photos..He was responsive and came to check out venue ahead of time. Although our day was super cold and rainy he managed to take some FANTASTIC photos! He was curtious of guests and them taking photos. And was always available to answer questions prior to wedding. If you're looking for a romantic picture photographer he is DEFINITELY the guy. Look no further.

David is an amazing photographer, highly professional! He provided us with a lifetime of photos to cherish!

David captured the beauty of our Costa Rican beach wedding, before and during the ceremony, the reception, dinner, and dancing. He did a session with the bride and groom at the beach - the pictures are just stunning!! David did an outstanding job of capturing the most important and beautiful parts of the day. It was a pleasure to work with such a personable and professional photographer. I highly recommend him and his services. Thank you so much, David, for giving us a lifetime of beautiful memories!!

Flexible and fun

After several back and forth messages, we made arrangements to work with David on some outdoor engagement photos. David sent some suggestions and made a comment about being flexible with inclement weather. As always happens, the weather was bad so David pushed the time to later in the day when it looked like it would clear up. We change the venue to his studio and we went to a local park. The weather cleared up, the scenery was great, David was fun to work with and the pictures turned out great. Thanks David!!

I made the right decision!

I would highly recommend this photographer. Not only did he go above and beyond at our wedding (helping the groom get ready), he took the most amazing pictures. He captured the moments I didn't even know I wanted. I would not hesitate to hire this photographer. He's the one. Exceptional. Thank you David!!! You documented our special day in a way that I can look back and enjoy it for a lifetime.

Picture perfect wedding in Costa Rica!

I wanted to stop and take a minute to thank David Taylor for his incredible work on my destination wedding in Costa Rica. David is a true professional and has a real passion for his work. It shines through in his photos. At the time I am writing this review, the Stop and Stare display picture is actually our picture on the beach!

A few months before our wedding, David sent us out questionnaires to fill out so he could get a better understanding of our needs and family dynamic. It was incredible how thorough it was. This made the day of the wedding and post shoot go super smooth. In fact, we were ahead of schedule during photo time because of how organized he was.

The guests at my wedding all commented on how David was not intrusive at all. He was able to capture the essence of the wedding without being in your face. That to me is the sign of a true professional.

I would highly recommend Stop and Stare by Taylor Photography for any destination wedding. Truly the best in the business!!
