I can't imagine a more perfect photographer

As soon as I had an initial phone call with Caleb, I knew he was going to be great to work with. He is professional, kind, organized, and very responsive to messages.

He scoped out the venue prior to the ceremony and was able to find several beautiful backdrops that made for stunning photos. My partner and I aren't always comfortable in front of a camera, but Caleb put us at ease and we are very happy with how our photos turned out. I was impressed by how many "perfect" shots were captured! Several guests also commented on how great he was to have around.

Overall, I had a wonderful experience and I highly recommend Peat Woods Photography

Engagement and Wedding Photographer - All the Stars!

Caleb, aka Peat Woods Photo, was awesome! My husband and I found Caleb through his free engagement session giveaway and fell in love with his portfolio of work. He was so nice, communicative, and easy to work with. He helped us feel comfortable for the engagement session and the photos turned out great! Since he did SUCH a great job, we also asked Caleb to photograph our wedding, and once again his work was stunning!

I was really anxious the morning of the wedding, but Caleb was looking out for me and helped me relax and stay on schedule. He is so creative and has a great eye for setting us in the right poses, and he even managed to get some great photos of our very excitable pup who did not want to sit still!

All in all, we loved working with Caleb. He was able to get our photos to us super fast - just a little over a week after the wedding, and he event sent us Instagram previews in the days after! We have gotten so many compliments on our wedding photos already, and even though Caleb is located in Grand Rapids and we're in Ann Arbor, I'll definitely hit him up for any other photo needs in the future!

Thank you so much for being a part of our special day!

Peat Woods Photography is simply exceptional!

Working with Caleb was an absolute joy from start to finish. He has an incredible eye for capturing the perfect shot—whether it's a couple, an individual portrait, or a larger group. His calm, confident presence instantly puts everyone at ease, making the entire experience feel natural and fun.

Caleb is also a fantastic communicator. From planning the shoot to final delivery, he was organized, responsive, and made sure we felt taken care of every step of the way. And the results? Absolutely stunning. Every photo was beautifully composed, edited to perfection, and captured the genuine emotion of the moment.

I can't recommend Peat Woods Photography highly enough. If you're looking for someone who blends artistry with professionalism and makes you feel confident in front of the camera, Caleb is your guy!

Very professional and a stress reducer!

Above and beyond - went ahead of time to the venue to scout out good spots for pictures. On the day of there were other stressors but I had immediately forgotten them when working with Caleb. He makes you feel comfortable which shows in the pictures which came out great. Flexible pricing and packages which was nice as well for a small wedding.

Everything and more!

Caleb was amazing 👏!

He captured our wedding perfectly 🥰.

He is a super easy person to be around as well! We were very comfortable and he gave us simple direction at times and we loved his vision!

He captured every natural raw moment as well. He would be around for all the moments that meant most.

The quality is nothing short but amazing as well.

I wouldn't have changed anything about our photography choice for our wedding day.

Professional, Dedicated, Experienced, and a new Friend

Caleb is the person you want to spend an entire day with! He is attentive, and incredibly creative and has a way of making you feel beautifully natural! He was available to talk about any questions or fears we had, photography-related or not, and spent an impressive amount of time studying our outdoor ceremony location and creating amazingly romantic photo ops! We truly enjoyed his company and his artistic eye! So grateful to have found him!
