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 was INCREDIBLE from start to finish. He has such a talent and you can tell he cares about his work from his professionalism to his quality of work. It's crazy what he's able to achieve.
We had about an hour long conversation to kick things off, he gave us a free engagement photo session which really warmed us up to the experience of being photographed. We had a silly engagement session, very fun, he was down to go off script but he utilizes your sample photos mainly to make sure you get the shots you want.
For our wedding he brought smoke cans, light stands, and photoshopped some crazy stuff in for us. He definitely understood the assignment! OH YEAH, and on a BROKEN TOE I might add. After the wedding he sent us USBs, enough for each of our parents to have one as well, with the photos and a nice video of photos in succession. He was very accommodating to our silly photoshop requests - he was actually really pumped for it! He reached out to me to make sure he had the right 'power blast' references because we're nerdy and he respects that.
If you want a photographer that makes you feel like you've been buds for a long time, does INCREDIBLE work, is diligent, makes you feel like you got a steal, and leaves you with memories that will last forever, Brian's your guy!

Brian was an absolute pleasure to work with! Communication was strong the entire time. I reached out to him on very short notice and was in between doing a court house wedding or a small intimate backyard wedding. Brian was able to pivot with my intimate ceremony and brave the brutal heat (it truly was the hottest day of the summer). Brian remained professional and captured every moment and picture that I requested. At the end of mine and my husbands photos we did fast pass photos with friends and family and Brian rounded them all up for us. My husband was THRILLED with his Star Wars photos which is what caught his eye when we were looking for a photographer. Brian got a special little request from our nephew and he honored it with his red lightsaber. (It’s the little things that matter the most!)

Brian was not only professional and knowledgeable about helping us setup and plan for our special day he truly made it such a fun experience! The whole time with a great big smile on his face that made us all so comfortable!!! Could not be more happy with everything and how great our pictures turned out! Would definitely recommend.

Brian was an amazing photographer. From the first time we met to the wedding, he was always professional and prompt. He helped us choose poses and had great ideas on the location of pictures. He got many photos throughout the ceremony, as well as pictures of the details around the venue. I am very pleased with his service and am so happy that I chose him to memorialize our day.

Brian was absolutely amazing. He was there for every moment and capture some beautiful photos. Having him there felt like a family friend was taking the photo. We are extremely happy with his service and couldn’t have an imagined a more beautiful outcome. Thank you Brian!

I’m beyond grateful for the incredible work Brian did for our vow renewal. From start to finish, his communication and availability were absolutely top-notch. But what truly stood out was how he went above and beyond on the day of our ceremony. Unfortunately, it poured rain on our special day, forcing us to relocate everything at the last minute and preventing us from using the beautiful venue we had chosen. Without hesitation, he offered to speak with the venue on our behalf and arranged a second shoot on a sunny day, completely at no extra cost to us. He gave us extra hours of his time, purely out of generosity and commitment to making sure we had the photos we dreamed of. The photos and video turned out absolutely stunning, capturing the emotion, the details, and the magic of our day perfectly. We are extremely happy and satisfied with his service. He jis truly amazing, and we can’t recommend him enough!

My wife and I are over the moon and wholeheartedly recommend Brian to anyone seeking a phenomenally talented, dependable, photographer for their unforgettable moments!

Hiring Brian as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made! (Me and my husband both agree he was the best person we booked for the big day!) From start to finish, he was kind, professional, and incredibly talented. He made us feel comfortable every step of the way, and his calm presence helped ease our nerves on the big day. Brian has a true gift for capturing authentic moments, and his sunset photos are nothing short of magical. He showed up to the venue early, Worked with us on the weather with our engagement session, incredibly amazing process on all his packages and worked with us to customize what works best for us, we will forever use him for our photographer! He timed everything perfectly to catch the golden light, and those photos are absolutely breathtaking, They’re the kind of images you want to frame in every room.

If you’re dreaming of stunning sunset shots and a photographer who genuinely cares, Brian is your guy. We truly couldn’t be happier!

Working with Brian as our wedding photographer was an absolute dream. From the very beginning, he was professional, punctual, and incredibly easy to work with. His pricing was more than reasonable, especially for the quality of work and attention to detail he provided.

On the day of the wedding, Brian made sure to capture every shot I had requested—and then some. He was always in the right place at the right time, without ever feeling intrusive. He brought a calm and positive energy that helped the day flow smoothly and made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera.

The final photos turned out beautifully and perfectly captured the joy and emotion of the day. I couldn’t be happier with the experience and would recommend Brian to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and affordable photographer for their special occasion.
