  I have only good things to say about Adam! He is everything we wanted in a photographer for our wedding; very talented, flexible and accommodating, professional, a great personality that was easy to work with and made taking photos so much fun...I could go on and on! He made everyone feel so at ease while taking photos; he has a knack for getting people to laugh and feel comfortable around him, which helps him capture all the personalities of the people in the photos. He was such a nice presence to have on our wedding day, and went beyond the duties of just a photographer. He helped keep track of time so we didn't have to worry about it, and even saved our wedding cake from a 3-year-old almost grabbing it! (We found out about that after the wedding, thank you Adam!) My husband and I agree (along with both of our parents) that he was the perfect fit and was by far our favorite wedding vendor that we picked!! We highly recommend him to anyone!

  Adam is by far the absolute best. We got along right away, he's very easy going and light hearted. We had a great time doing our engagement pictures and getting to know him. He's very creative - he will see an amazing shot when no one else can. We just received our wedding photos and they are incredible. He really captured our day and the mood along with it. He is extremely talented and is definitely a photo journalist, telling a story with every wedding he does. He will do the posed pictures if they're important to you, but definitely let him do his own thing. He'll capture moments in a beautiful way. We will cherish our pictures for years to come.
  
  Go with Adam if you can - you won't regret it!!

  Adam is an amazing photographer, and we are so glad we chose to use his services for our wedding day! During the entire process, Adam worked hard to accommodate our needs and kept the entire process stress-free. Our photos turned out gorgeous, and our proofs were ready within two weeks of our wedding. I never expected to see them so quickly! It's only a month after our wedding, and I've already seen proofs, ordered photo prints, and received them. Adam's services are expensive, but it was so worth it for us, especially since the wedding photos were one of the aspects of our wedding that we were not willing to compromise. As a part of our package, we also received engagement photos, and those also turned out phenomenal. Our proofs for those were received within a week, Adam went out of his way to accommodate our location, and our session was the most fun I've ever had having my picture taken. In Michigan, I wouldn't recommend any other photographer!

  Adam was one of our favorite vendors. We actually picked our date based off his schedule and I am so happy we did. Both he and his assistant photographer kept us laughing and made the family photos painless! The value is not a sacrifice for quality either. He did great work and I love our engagement and wedding photos. Highly recommend.

  We are so pleased with the results of our wedding photographs from Adam Sparkes. He was a pleasure to work with from start to finish, very patient with all of our questions and requests.
  
  On the day of... Adam and his assistant arrived on time and were great about helping calm my nerves in the middle of a crazy morning! He was up for anything and got some amazing shots on a brutally freezing day in December.
  
  He made sure to capture a little of everything and everyone at our reception. I would recommend him to anyone to trust their wedding or other important day in his hands.
  
  I look forward to working with him in the future as our family grows -- but in the mean we actually asked Adam to do some pictures of my grandparents and those as well came out truly magical.
  
  You will be so happy you book with Adam Sparkes Photography -- your photos will come out beautiful!

  Adam was one of the best vendors my husband and I worked with. He is so commited to what he does that it shows in the way he communicates with you and the pictures he takes. I am very shy taking pictures but my husband is more outgoing than I am, but Adam knew how to get me out of my shell. He was reasonably priced and I enjoyed every moment we spent taking pictures. And can I say that when he takes pictures, boy! does he take pictures. Adam goes the extra mile by taking every detail that leads to sort of a story when you look back at your pictures. It was a pleasure working with him and his assistant. Best investment, hands down!!

  I cannot say enough good things about working with Adam for our wedding photography. Adam was a pleasant and calming influence on my wedding day. There were times were photo's taken that I didn't even know he was around for because he was so quick, quiet, and professional. He also seemed to be keenly aware of when to make himself known and offer a little direction.
  
  He was patient and kept us laughing in freezing cold Michigan weather, and Adam was very flexible and open to changing needs.
  
  One of the main things people talk about when it comes to my wedding is how amazed and in love with the photo's they are. Friends and family are in awe of the artistic talent Adam has in capturing true emotions in his photography. Many guest at my wedding have become an Adam Sparkes fan club, following his blog and website updates religiously for the next beautiful set of photos.
  
  Adam truly is highly professional, but yet has the personality and calming influence that it is a pleasure to share such special and personal moments with him, I felt like he was a member of my family or bridal party, not just a vendor.

  We absolutely LOVED Adam Sparkes. Adam was so great throughout the entire wedding planning process, during the engagement session, during the wedding itself, and afterward. He made us feel so comfortable around the camera, and our wedding party and other guests really enjoyed him. He also worked really well with the little kids in the wedding party and got some beautiful shots. He is so easy to work with that it's almost like he and Andrew were family friends by the end of the night. Even my mother, who is a hard woman to please, enjoyed Adam's professional yet flexible demeanor.
  
  One thing I particularly like about Adam is that he is a talented photojournalist who understands that wedding photography is about what YOU need as the client. I have found that some photojournalists take the art of wedding photography so seriously that they don't really pay attention to your needs. Some photojournalists won't take posed photos at all, others don't want ANY input as far as angle, lighting, etc. I have nothing against photojournalists that work this way, but that kind of attitude and goals just did not coincide with ours. With Adam, we felt he understood how much our wedding meant to us and that he wanted the entire wedding photography experience to be a happy, memorable, and personalized one.
  
  Adam works well with what YOU want, taking as much or as little input as you want to give. For example, we wanted most of our photos to not be "posed photos", but knew we needed to at least have some posed photos for our album and our parents. Some photojournalists put a limit on the number of posed photos - with Adam, it's no problem.
  
  On the flip side, Adam took some GREAT candid, photojournalistic shots that I absolutely adore. For example, my father is usually a person who smiles all the time in public. Adam actually caught a few shots of my father before I walked down the aisle, where my father was sitting in the limo very deep in thought, with my mother watching him carefully. These, along with many others, were priceless images that I would not have otherwise caught myself.
  
  We could go on and on about Adam, but the bottom line is that he was our favorite of ALL of our wedding vendors.

  Adam did a great job with our photos. The quality of our pictures is stunning. And he's also a very good value.

  NOT impressed! I wish that I could say differently considering all that I have left of my wedding are the pictures!
  
  I live out of state and came into town a week prior to my wedding. He was so hard to get ahold of, that I was left the night before planning out the next day! We all know that is one less burden that we want the night before!
  
  He was really great being flexable with a back up plan. All my pictures... Lets just say I have VERY few floor length pictures! How is that possible! I am so dissapointed, all that time spent finding the perfect dress and I can count on two hands how many floor lengths I have. The pictures with "just the bride"... Yeah I'm laying in a corest and set in such a position that my breasts are LOPSIDED!! What angers me on that is prior to him snapping those pictures I asked if they looked lopsided! Lets just say every female who has looked at these pictures have walked away saying they are!
  
  Walking down the aile... NO ONE HAS A FULL LENGTH photo shot except the ring bearer! There is a fence shot of my husband and I, I am hiden behind a fence with him in front! Once again my dress is not in these pictures. I then paid for a photo little booth area set up during my reception... why are these not full lenth? There is more height above everyone's head then needed. There are very few pictures of my guests and I am relaying heavily on my guests photos to build my album!
  
  Once receiving my pictures online, I was once again disappointed by the quality. There were so many pictures that I couldn't believe he posted! Eyes closed, mouth open, just making an unattractive face... Just think he was going for quanity not quality! I am embarassed to have some of these posted! Disappointed all around!
