Hands down best vendor

Tyler was probably our favorite vendor for our entire wedding. He advertises himself as being a photographer who can capture a story line with just pictures and so we felt comfortable not having videography for our wedding. After seeing the photos, we don’t regret not having videography one bit. The pictures were perfect and his company was so much fun. He spent a good chunk of time getting to know us as a couple before the wedding and it felt like he was able to capture our essence. 1000000% recommend.

The BEST decision we made for our wedding

I have so many incredible things to say about our experience with Tyler Gets Weird, so I’ll start with this: hiring Tyler to document our wedding was the best decision we made, and truly one of the most important. From our initial onboarding call, to bringing our vision to life for both our rehearsal dinner and wedding day, to the final photos and video we received, every step of the process was handled with exceptional professionalism, care, and attention to detail.

Tyler is incredibly talented, organized, and an absolute joy to work with. He knows how to keep things moving, take charge when needed, and effortlessly wrangle friends and family for photos, all while keeping the experience fun, relaxed, and enjoyable. Having someone like Tyler leading the way on such an important day made all the difference.

We also had Tyler and his team capture our wedding video, and it is the perfect representation and memory of our day. The photos and video are beyond stunning and everything we could have hoped for and more. We will cherish them forever.

Tyler Gets Weird is someone you can feel completely confident choosing for life’s most meaningful moments, and we look forward to continuing to work with Tyler for future milestones.

Amazing, wonderful, fantastic

Tyler was amazing! We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer. He made the whole day so fun and easy, and had us laughing nonstop. We’re not really picture kind of people and made it really easy for us!

The photos came out absolutely gorgeous and captured the day perfectly. Tyler really went above and beyond, and we’re so thankful we had him there to capture it all. Can’t recommend him enough!

Tyler is literally the best and a life saver. Naturally I waited till the last minute to fine a photographer but tyler saved the day. me and my husband are definitely awkward for photos by tyler made us super comfortable by cracking jokes and being weird. our engagement+wedding photos came out exactly how i imagined them and came back to us quickly. tyler is a great communicator and won't leave you thinking you have been forgotten and is honestly one of the coolest people i know🥂

The photos were great quality for the price, couldn't have been better. there are diffrent packages to meet everyone's budget. tyler was amazing, especially during the wedding. we only had him for a short time and he was very organized to make sure we got the best experience!

Tyler is the BEST

Tyler did my videography for my wedding last December, and I cannot say enough about how amazing he is. He was so fun and funny, and no part of it felt like we had to rush or stage anything. It was all so natural and comfortable. It may sound funny, but I genuinely think about him and his work all of the time and am still in awe when I think back to my wedding day. He's not just a videographer. He played such a crucial role in the entire day while also allowing me to forget he was even there at all. It was more like having a friend around, to be honest. And he pays ATTENTION TO DETAIL. Not only in his video, but through the whole morning, he was the only person who realized that not one of the buttons on my dress were buttoned before going down the aisle and he helped us get them buttoned up quick! He also bustled all 6 bustles that my dress had in like 30 seconds. Like cmon!!! That's someone who goes so above and beyond. And obviously, his video was INCREDIBLE. He took the time to talk with me about my vision and brought it to life in such a unique way. He really is the best. Would recommend to anyone.

Tremendous

I truly cannot say enough about the phenomenal job Tyler did photographing our wedding. From the first consultation through the editing timeline after the wedding, Tyler was prompt, responsive, professional, and just an overall joy to communicate with. Not to mention the fact that he is a profoundly talented photographer. On the day of the wedding, he managed to be everywhere at once - somehow capturing every special moment of the day while simultaneously directing everyone to where they should be, and all the while managing to provide the perfect amount of support my wife and I needed to stay sane and allow us to fully enjoy the best day of our lives. I told him our only regret is hiring him before all the other vendors because he set the bar unattainably high. I’m telling you, do yourself a favor and get weird with Tyler. I promise you won’t regret it.

Tyler captured our vision perfectly!

Tyler photographed our engagement photos in St. Augustine, and we are absolutely in love with them! I want to thank Tyler for being so patient and supportive. St. Augustine can be busy in the summertime and I was nervous about feeling calm enough to get the perfect shots. Tyler did an amazing job of explaining how he would achieve our vision and went above and beyond. We would recommend him to anyone looking to capture their happiest moments. His communication was kind, prompt, and full of great humor. Some of our favorites are attached!

Tyler is the best!!!

We loved all our wedding vendors, but Tyler takes the prize for our favorite! From the first phone call it was obvious that Tyler really strives to understand his clients’ personalities so that he can factor that in to how he captures your day. We wanted “fly on the wall” style photography and he delivered by being low key but also exactly where he was needed at every moment. He’s also willing to try out new things and did a quirky camcorder style video for us, so don’t be afraid to ask him to branch out from what’s typical. His personality makes him fun and easy to work with, and we got countless compliments from wedding guests on how much they loved our photo/video team, both at the wedding and after once we got everything back!

Tyler is hilarious, delivers beautiful photos/video with a fast turnaround, and will literally dive into the bushes for you to get the perfect shot. Definitely book him for your wedding photo/video needs!!!

100% recommend!

My husband & I are both not the best at posing and smiling for pictures, so it was super important to us to find a good candid photographer and someone that we could feel comfortable with. Especially considering we were having a small,
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
