Nicole Sent on 10/12/2023Phenomenal!
Picking out a photographer felt super daunting in the beginning, but as met Lee we knew it was a perfect match. We just had our engagement photos, and I was BLOWN away by all the little moments he was able to capture. We wanted to find someone that would blend perfectly with our style and fit right in on our wedding day. It's evident in his work how personal it is for him and how much he truly cares about his clients' experience. I know he’s only ever a quick text or call away. We've had quite a few changes in locations and dates, and he’s been so flexible and helpful throughout.
We were obsessed with the engagement photos he took. The day of the photos, it just so happened to start raining as we were parking to meet up with Lee. He came prepared with two clear umbrellas and was pumped for the shoot regardless of the rain. He immediately put my nerves at rest. We ended up with over 200 photos in less than two weeks. I couldn't believe all the stunning photos I had to choose from. Not to mention, we had the best time scouting the Lake Lure area during our time. It was the best little adventure. We can’t wait to have Lee meet our two little ones for our family photos next. Our wedding day is about six months away, and there’s still so much to plan. But I’m so happy we found Lee, and I’m so excited to see all the moments he has yet to capture. Highly recommend! -

Lee did an AMAZING job capturing everyone at my wedding. There are pictures of family members that I will cherish forever. It was a smooth and easy process. Lee also worked to fit me in when I was having a photographer crisis! Not only did he give me a listening ear, but he was able to get to know my husband and I on a more personal level. He made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire session. I was beyond pleased with the final results and cannot wait to get them printed and framed!! Thank you for making my special day last forever. -

Perfect and well captured!
I had a very non traditional wedding and aesthetic, and Lee captured every moment perfectly! The guest seemed to have fun getting their photos taken and we are so happy to have so many great photos of our best day. Professionalism at its finest! -

Great experience with Lee!
We had a great experience with Lee! He is very communicative, kind, and fun! He was a very calming presence before the ceremony and blended right in during the reception! He was very fun to hang with and took amazing pictures! -

Anniversary Pictures
Lee shot anniversary pictures for my partner and I and he was very aware of our surroundings and made it a priority to ensure we were comfortable in front of the camera. Was a very enjoyable experience for us with positive vibes. -

We are beyond pleased with Lee’s work for our wedding day at the Biltmore Estate and our engagement pictures at Looking Glass falls, the pictures are beautiful and we will cherish them forever.
We were in the hunt for a photographer that was able to work independently as we wanted to rely on their creative eye so we could focus on our guests and enjoying our time at our ceremony and reception. Lee was fantastic to work with since the beginning, he was always able to answer any and all questions via text or a phone call. We were able to speak with him on several occasions to plan our vision.
We first met him for our engagement pictures and we didn’t have a clear idea of where we could take pictures since we are from Miami and not familiar with the Asheville area, Lee was great at providing a magnificent backdrop for our shoot, and although the weather at the fall was at times uncomfortable Lee was still able to capture amazing shots that we were delighted with.
For our big day we had to adhere to the many rules and limitations at the Biltmore Estate and Lee was able to pivot to make our first look pictures happen, we were able to enjoy our reception with the assurance he would know what to capture and when and we were satisfied with the end result. The turnabout time was also very reasonable and we had the final pictures before we got back from our honeymoon.
We would recommend Lee and his team without reservations, and I commend him for his artistic eye and ability to create a wonderful product while also taking into consideration our vision and ideas. -

Lee has an eye for capturing beautiful romantic images. We used him for our wedding and the entire process from beginning to end was so comforting and easy. Lee felt like family, from getting to know what was important to us to capturing images that we get to keep for a lifetime. We will definitely be using his services again! Also he got us our photos back 3 DAYS after the wedding!!!!! -

Lee is a fantastic wedding photographer. The communication and punctuality from day 1 of hiring Lee, all the way up to the communication and punctuality days before/day-of the wedding, was excellent. He is very personable and wants nothing more than to provide his absolute best work and fulfill any and all of the couple's dream photos. He is very patient with the chaos that comes with the wedding day, and he worked so well alongside the videographer that I hired. They ended up making a wonderful duo to capture my wedding day!
Waiting on the sneak peak photos took a little bit longer than anticipated, but WOW the photos are phenomenal once you get them! I only have the sneak peak pics so far, but the photography is unmatched. The photos captured are so unique, and I absolutely love his style of wedding photography. I cannot WAIT to get alllllll of the photos from the wedding! -

Hire him or you will regret it
It needs to be known that this is literally one of the most talented and emotionally dedicated photographers out there. From my experience, my best advice when planning a wedding is to put most of your budget on your venue and your photographer. The best thing about Lee is you will get A+++++ captured moments and edited pictures while not breaking your budget. This man not only knew what I wanted without telling him, but also gave me the direction to get the pictures I didn’t even think were possible. The best part of all of it, is Lee became apart of the party and my family and friends loved him. I would have it no other way but to have him as our photographer for all special and memorial events moving forward. Thank you Lee, you are incredibly talented and an amazing person inside and out. Thank you from the Huffman’s. -

Our wedding pictures were absolute perfection! My husband and I have a love for baking together. In our first call together to get to know each other, we shared this with Lee. He had some fun, creative ideas of how to reflect this. He took the time to find a bakery that stayed open late for us and we had some fun! He personalized the experience AND the pictures were a dream! He is a true artist. -
