Tim was a fantastic wedding photographer — his photos are absolutely gorgeous and we love how he captured the genuine emotion at the wedding (not just us, but also our parents and other guests). We did a long couple photo shoot on the walk to the venue from our apartment and got a ton of amazing shots, even as it started to rain. Tim was fun to work with, he dealt with the rain and our family like a consummate professional, and we love love love the photos! He gave us a few beautiful Polaroids on the night of the wedding and a sneak peek a few days later, then sent out the full album less than a month after the wedding. We trusted Tim and his guidance and it definitely paid off!!

It was a pleasure to have Tim photograph our wedding. He was relaxed, easygoing, and professional; his calm presence put everyone at ease. He provided the perfect amount of direction for the formal pictures, and he was adept at capturing candid moments. He was also flexible and responsive as we made last minute location changes, and he was a great sport about standing in the rain to take pictures. The pictures themselves are beautiful: we're so happy to have a record of the joy and emotion of a whirlwind day!

We're so happy we found Tim! Our venue was a bit on the small side, so we needed a photographer who could be a fly on the wall. We were also looking for someone familiar with downtown Brooklyn, as we knew that's where we'd be doing our first look. After reading Tim's reviews, looking at his work, and hopping on the phone with him -- we knew he was our guy. We were even more confident in that decision when we received a handwritten "thank you" in the mail soon after signing our contract. On the day, Tim was a rockstar -- keeping us true to our timelines, putting our families at ease, and capturing all of the magic. Within 24 hours, he sent us several photos as a sampling (and to satisfy our Instagrams). We got our full album within a MONTH -- organized by section, with hundreds and hundreds of beautiful selects to choose from. He also did a fantastic job at obeying our request to capture a photo with each table at the reception and getting plenty of photos of our family and guests. Tim's the best!

We hired Tim Ryan Smith for our wedding in October 2019, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. Tim and his assistant Austin delivered a very complete set of hundreds of incredible shots, and the editing treatment is exactly what we were looking for. Tim was very professional, personable, friendly, and sincere. We were also impressed by his ability to get the most difficult subjects to pose/smile properly, as well as his ability to scope out the best scenes on each property. We also love the fact that Tim delivers high resolution photos. The quality and professionalism Tim provided were top notch, and we feel strongly that we got what we paid for (and more).

Tim was one of our absolute favorite vendors to work with. From the minute we booked with him he was easy to communicate with, made it very easy for us to make decisions about our plan and day-of timeline and even made extra time to meet with us in person before our wedding day to work out some details. Tim made the day of our wedding a dream come true for us. He made us feel so at ease and everything was seamless. Tim also came up with so many cool ideas for our wedding pictures and made sure all of the details were covered. His work is incredible. Highly recommend!

We were fortunate enough to be put in touch with Tim by another photographer prior to our wedding. Tim's work speaks for itself - his photos are stunning and he's unbelievable at what he does. It was after our first conversation on the phone, however, that we knew we wanted to work with him. He's incredibly personable and goes above and beyond in getting to know his clients. We met up several times leading up to our wedding and also had him take photos during our engagement party which we thoroughly treasure.

On the day of the wedding, Tim was a calming presence for us. It felt like he was a longtime friend which helped put us at ease and he offered really useful advice which we appreciated. He successfully guided the wedding party and our large families, keeping us on track prior to the ceremony and throughout the reception.

Tim quickly shared a preview of the photos with us, just days after the wedding. We received our full gallery approximately one month later and we could not be more thrilled with the final product. Our friends and family cannot stop talking about how beautiful the photos are. We would absolutely recommend Tim and hope to find an excuse to work with him again someday.

We are so happy we had Tim as our photographer for our wedding day and engagement shoot. Tim is incredibly flexible and worked with us to find the package that fit our wants and budget. Also, he was patient with our engagement session where he gave recommendations on locationsand shots.

We jumped on a few calls with Tim to make sure we're on the same page, and he was quick with replying to our questions via email/call. Tim also arrived early for our wedding day to avoid traffic, and he was generous enough to start early on our wedding day. This made the pre-ceremony sessions smooth and stress free.

We have large families who do not speak English, but Tim gave quick and effective instructions that made the family portraits quick (and relatively painless). We have a lot of family and friends who were in the way with their camera phones, but Tim was professional in side-stepping or having them move to make sure he could capture the shot. It was such a seamless and easy day for both of us. Our guests have commented that Tim never stopped moving! He was always working to get the best angle for our shots.

Tim is such a pleasure to work with. He is friendly and so kind. He has the right mix of professionalism and warmth. And he was a calm presence at our wedding. We highly recommend Tim.

Tim is honestly the best photographer you'll ever find. He is incredibly talented, and has a knack for capturing the "real" vs staged moments. After working in the wedding industry, and helping to plan my sister's wedding and then planning my own wedding, it is beyond clear that Tim is the best in the business. Tim is easy to work with, thoughtful, easygoing, and is such a pro at what he does. He makes your day completely seamless and stress free, and never gets "in the way" like a lot of wedding photographers and videographers do. He continued to send sneak peak photos at lightning speed to both myself and my husband following our wedding, and the photos were so stunning that friends of ours are already booking Tim for their weddings!!! He is the ABSOLUTE BEST and it would be a mistake not to use him for your wedding (or honestly any photo needs).

Thank you, Tim, for capturing the best day of our lives -- we are so so happy you were a part of it.

Now we need an excuse for another event so we can work with you!!!!!

For the sake of getting to the point, you should choose to work with Tim for 3 reasons: his photography, his professional presence, and the fact he is just an awesome guy. When I was searching for photographers, Tim came highly recommended and I loved his work. I was looking for his documentary-style of photography, which I feel really captures the essence of your special day (although we certainly got the required staged family and wedding party photos in there, without them at all being cheesy or forced). Additionally, I was thrilled to learn Tim is very low maintenance when it comes to equipment; meaning he's not going to roll in with tons of lights or tripods that I often feel ruin the ambiance of a wedding. He has such an amazing eye and will guide you where, when, and how to take the best pictures. (The night of, he and our wedding coordinator even made the executive decision to move up the cake cutting because of the incredible sunset!) Given I am extra Type-A and thorough though, I wanted to explore my options. I reached out to him and a few others via email, and spoke to them on the phone. Right away, I loved his demeanor and personality. He was calm (but not dull), confident (but not at all obnoxious), and clearly loves what he does. It's important to remember you will be spending pretty much your entire wedding day with your photographer(s), so clicking personality-wise was super important to me. After meeting with him and another highly recommended photographer, there was no question; we knew we wanted to spend our special day with Tim documenting it. Between our engagement shoot, coordinating the months leading up to, and of course our wedding day, Tim was patient, flexible, friendly, and genuine. Before the wedding, we gave Tim our must-have shot list per his requests, and didn't think twice about whether or not he would handle it. My husband and I truly enjoyed ourself during what can be an awkward and forced few hours, thanks to Tim (and his lovely day-of second shooter, Allison!). Thank you, Tim, for doing such an amazing job capturing our wedding!

Tim Ryan Smith made our wedding day a beautiful experience! We planned to capture our wedding photos before the ceremony, and Tim brought a wonderful calmness and sense of humor to a hectic morning. His documentary approach to wedding photography is so refreshing. We just received our photos from Tim, and they are BEAUTIFUL!!! He captured lovely photos of my husband and I. There are so many to choose from, and I am really picky about photos of myself. Tim also took beautiful images of so many of our guests, as well as amazing photos from the dance floor! I feel that Tim captured the experience of our wedding. Tim is a great person to spend your wedding day with, and his photography is stunning!
