Brian was incredible to work with every step of the way. He took over an hour of his time to discuss our vision for our wedding and our needs before creating a personalized quote for us.

It was amazing that he includes an engagement shoot with his package. This allowed us to learn how he works and get our nervous jitters out as well as build confidence that we actually can take cute photos. He also was able to make location recommendations to us and clearly is familiar with the Hampton Roads area and knew so many beautiful hidden spots.

I had concerns that he did not have a second shooter, but he does not need one. He was able to be everywhere all at once. I'm not sure how he was able to get all the shots he got of us from different angles, all while being completely non-obtrusive. My dad made several comments about how he must have been standing right next to him based on the camera angles, but he doesn't remember seeing him at all. He just blended right into the background while capturing all of the important moments.

In the days before the wedding, he spent over another hour on the phone with us going through the plan to make sure he knew exactly what our expectations were. He arrived at the venue before us to take photos of everything beforehand. Then split his time perfectly between the girls and guys getting ready shots.

During our extended cocktail hour, I was very anxious about where we stood on time, and he was reassuring that everything was going exactly as it needed to. He was incredibly organized with his shot lists and clearly put a great deal of prep time into getting ready for our big day. He was flexible in working around my grandmother's limited mobility in allowing us to get amazing photos with her.

We wanted to go to a second location during cocktail hour and he was completely on board and worked with the venue to get them on board with us leaving our guests unattended for 90 minutes. We did our private vows at that location and he was very unobtrusive while we did them. He captured so many sweet moments of our personal vows (again while making himself completely invisible so that we had that moment completely to ourselves).

During the reception, I was anxious again about the timeline, but he kept reassuring me that it was our day and we can do whatever we wanted to do. He was also incredible with my nephew and humored him while he followed him around all night pretending to be his assistant.

His turnaround time is incredible. He provided us with a sneak peak of photos the very next day, which was so amazing to have photos to share so quickly. Several people commented that they couldn't believe how quickly we got our photos back and my mom's jaw literally dropped when she saw the beautiful photos he had sent us.

I loved his process for releasing the photos. He set up an online gallery and posted them in little chunks, so it wasn't overwhelming to look at them all and it was several days of excitedly looking over the photos. We got our first big set of photos less than two weeks after the wedding, then the rest over the next few days. He encouraged us with every set of photos to give him feedback and made sure that they were to our satisfaction. Once all the photos were in our temporary online gallery, he mailed us a physical drive of the photos (actually four sets, one for us, and three for our parents). The drive included a 25+ minute video montage of our photos set to music and over 900 photos. There were also over 200 additional photos that were not in our gallery preview.

I love that he gives you free reign with the photos to print them anywhere and doesn't require you to print from him. The flash drive he sent includes a photo release form.

Overall, Brian was incredible to work with and I strongly recommend 33 Photography. He wanted to make sure that he showed off the unique aspects of our wedding and ensure that he was meeting our expectations in upholding our vision every step of the way.

Brian beyond exceeded our expectations! From the first phone call, he was very professional and made the process easy to understand. I was planning the wedding on my own, so his example timelines really helped me plan the day out. DO the engagement session! You will get to meet him and get a little more comfortable behind the camera before the big day. Have pose examples ready because he wants these pictures to be everything you've dreamed of. On our wedding day, he was calm, friendly, and so quiet! I barely knew he was there throughout the reception until the big moments happened. The pictures all came out incredible. I would recommend him to anyone for any event.

Brian was really a joy to work with! He came prepared and his methods worked really well for us!
We were looking for a chill photographer who was easy to work with, ready to go with whatever the day brought, and had ideas to contribute as well.
Brian fit all of those and more! He brought example photos for poses, was able to manage the crowd of family and bridal party, and managed to make photos one less thing on my plate as the day progressed.
Thanks Brian! You were fantastic!

Brian was amazing! He was on time, professional, and captured all the moments we wanted perfectly. He did a great job catching genuine, special moments throughout the day that we’ll cherish forever. We’re so happy with how everything turned out and would definitely recommend him!

Brian is simply the BEST! He did so much to help us facilitate an amazing wedding day. He offered several consultation/planning calls throughout the planning process and gave us so much great advice. He worked seamlessly to coordinate with our other vendors and helped us move through some unexpected mishaps that occurred throughout the day. The photos we got are breathtaking and captured our special day so well. We have access to an online gallery as well as 3 flash drives with an extended gallery and slideshow of the day. We opted out of hiring a videographer, so the slideshow is a really nice alternative. We had lots of fun with some custom Star Wars scenes, sunset lighting, bubbles, and more. We highly recommend choosing Brian to capture your special day!

Brian did an AMAZING job with our wedding pictures!! From the very first consultation me and my husband were so impressed with his professionalism and his knowledge of photography.
