Erin Sent on 06/16/2025Hiring Brian Adams was the best wedding planning decision we made!
We cannot recommend Brian Adams highly enough! He exceeded every expectation and made our wedding day absolutely perfect.
Throughout the whole process, he was incredibly responsive and professional, coordinating seamlessly with our venue and DJ. As introverts, we were nervous about being the center of attention, but he struck the perfect balance – capturing every important moment while giving us precious quiet time together.
Neither of us had experience posing for professional photos, but his clear direction resulted in absolutely stunning images. He expertly directed our family and wedding party photos, keeping everyone organized while maintaining positive energy. During our 8-hour coverage (first look, ceremony, family photos, reception, and golden hour portraits), he captured every moment we hoped for plus beautiful candid shots we didn't even realize were happening. His attention to detail was incredible – he even kept guests with red wine away from my white dress!
The final photos were delivered promptly and are absolutely breathtaking. I have never felt more beautiful than I do in these images. He's not just a talented photographer but also a fantastic hype man with a down-to-earth personality that made working with him such a joy.
These photos will be treasured for the rest of our lives. If you're looking for a photographer who combines technical excellence with wonderful personality and true professionalism, look no further!

Brian was so much fun to work with as our wedding photographer! He kept the entire wedding party organized and on-time the whole day. Brian coordinated very well with our other vendors to keep the day moving smoothly and we never had to worry about the small details - he had it covered! My husband and I are nervous in front of the camera but Brian kept us calm and laughing. You can't feel self-conscious when you're cracking up! Brian also really cares about his couples and our friends and family loved working with him, too. He was great at capturing all the important moments, no matter how small, without ever feeling intrusive. We highly recommend Brian to anyone looking for a charismatic and talented photographer! -

Planning a wedding through a pandemic is not something that anyone would wish for, but from the moment we spoke to Brian the first time up until our wedding we had nothing but a positive experience! When we had our engagement session it felt just like hanging out with a long time friend. Brian is so friendly and comfortable to work with that you forget that you are standing in front of his camera. And the results!!! The photos were nothing like I’ve ever seen before. They truly captured our personalities and love. Now onto the actual wedding: EVERYTHING and I mean everything was seamless. My husband nor I ever had to worry about the timeline or where we needed to be at what time. He and his second photographer, Tyler easily directed both our families and our wedding party as needed. Again, the pictures came out beautiful and many of our guests and attendants asked if Brian could be their photographer for future events. Overall, we truly believe that we made the right choice for our photography team and would not have had it any other way! Thank you x1000 Brian and Tyler! -

If you’re looking for not only a photographer but comedian, hype man, planner, and just good guy- Brian is your man. He helped make our day so special! He kept us on track and got all the pictures we could have asked for. I cannot recommend him enough. All our friends wanted his information for their future weddings. -

Stop what you’re doing and hire Brian immediately!! He’s a professional and talented wedding photographer who thinks of everything.
He had great suggestions for photo locations, and his sense of humor made our wedding party feel at ease. He makes sure to get the posed photos you want, but he also gets magical candid shots. I had 10 bridesmaids and they all hope to hire him someday for their own weddings.
I also really appreciated how easy it was to get in touch with Brian. He’s very prompt at responding to texts/emails, and he even went out of his way to send us photos of flowers/centerpieces to help us with brainstorming.
Also, his second photographer, Igor, was awesome, too! They make a great team!
Seriously, hire Brian and don’t look back.

I can't put into words the experience that Brain gave us on our wedding day. He knew the timeline and everything we wanted like the back of his hand and it all flowed so perfectly. There isn't a single picture from our day that I wouldn't frame. It's been 5 days since we received the pictures and I've looked at all of them multiple times a day! Thanks again Brian and Igor! -

Meghann Sent on 10/30/2019Fantastic Photographer, Wonderful Experience!
I don’t have enough space nor time to rave about our experience with Brian and his second shooter, Ryan. Choosing the right photographer to capture and memorialize our wedding day was one of the most nerve-racking experiences because we couldn’t know how the photos would turn out until everything was said and done. Thankfully, we had NOTHING to worry about! I don’t use the term lightly, but Brian and Ryan were AMAZING. We were really able to connect with them (the love of Jeeps sure helped) and both our engagement session and wedding day couldn’t have gone any better.
It is incredible to me how Brian really captured the feel of the day. 5 months later as I look at my photos, I can still feel the emotion I felt on my wedding day.
He was so easy to work with, is personable and helped to ease the anxiety of the day. He was great at blending into the background and still being able to capture intimate moments.
Everyone who has seen our photos is stunned by the beauty and emotion that radiates through them. My sister-in-law says she wishes Brain had done her wedding, because now she is disappointed with her photos!
You will NOT regret hiring B. Adams Photography for your event. I hope we have the occasion to work with him in the future! -

Megan Sent on 10/26/2019I waited my whole life for this...
Brian did not disappoint. He was beyond amazing! He was able to work with us with our last minute changes due to weather, kept me calm throughout the entire planning process and went above and beyond what is to be expected from a photographer. He is very laid back and so fun to work with! My pictures turned out amazing and I waited my whole life for this day and it couldn't have been more perfect, even when mother nature through a giant monkey wrench in our plans! -

Andrea Sent on 10/31/2018Amazing!
i don't think there are enough good things in the english language that i could say about brian. we just received our wedding photos, i haven't even looked through all of them [hundreds] yet, but the ones i have looked at are absolutely stunning. as were our engagement photos. he made our day fun and seamless.
normally i would have been very uncomfortable having my picture taken, but brian made it easy to be in front of the camera. he is very personable and easy going, but also professional. we could not stop smiling and laughing, and some of that might have to do with the fact that we had just gotten married, but brian helped. we did not have one worry about where to take photos or how to pose, he made everything so simple.
if you are considering brian in your search for wedding photographers, i would give him a million thumbs up if i could. seriously, if you're still searching, stop here. i spoke to at least two dozen photographers and brian was the last one. i knew from one e-mail and one look at his photo gallery that he was the one for us. photography was my number one priority for our wedding and i cannot imagine anyone else capturing our day and making it so easy and beautiful. if i EVER need anything else done, brian will be the first person i contact. heck, i would consider hiring him just to shoot my every day life. :D
thank you so much!!!! -

Jenessa Sent on 10/22/2018We loved our experience and EVERY picture!
Brian went above and beyond our expectations as the photographer for our wedding. His upbeat and personable personality makes you feel as though you have been friends for a long time. He is very organized and did well to send reminders along the way when planning for the timeline and general photos were needing to be discussed. He is able to create the most stunning and natural pictures through varying lighting, perspectives and does so without creating awkwardness. He is very professional and thinks through every detail. He even is prepared with a back-up and solution for everything from extra camera equipment to bridal party needs. The quality of his work far exceeds this price which is very affordable compared to others. We would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to get married or wanting to capture life's most precious moments. -
Katie Sent on 07/28/2018Brian was beyond amazing! He was so great to work with before the wedding. So easy to talk to and really wanted to get to know what was important to us. The day of he was there early and ready to go! Everyone in the wedding party was talking about how great he was. He truly set the mood of the day of being a fun and upbeat. He was so efficient during family photos and captured so many fun, creative and forever photos for us. He helped us relax and have fun with it. He always made sure we were okay and was there if we needed anything! He definitely went above and beyond the typical photographer role. He did so much! I cannot say enough amazing things about him. It was so nice to relax that day and I honestly fully trusted him to get the photos and help the day run smoothly. If you are on the fence, just book him now! It will probably be the best decision of your wedding day, it was for me!

Jenna Sent on 01/09/2018Brian was amazing ! I found him about 10/11 months before my wedding day and we met up and talked about everything we wanted and what he offered ! He was down for whatever we wanted and had an awesome personality! We felt like we had know him for years !! We traveled about an hour to meet him in Rockton the town we would be getting married in and we were so happy we took the drive up ! He kept in touch the whole time we were planning our wedding and was always answering my calls /messages as soon as he could ! On our wedding day he showed up on time and started working right away ! He helped with whatever I needed and calmed me down when I thought I was going to be late haha! EVERYONE loved him and we had 3 of our friends that are getting married say they had to have him at their wedding and We couldn’t agree more ! Now you understand his personality and the fun he provides for you and your guests but the pictures ... they are absolutely stunning and exactly what we wanted ! He understood what we asked for And he did it ! We were crying happy tears looking at them ! We not only are going to recommend him to everyone we know but we gained a great friend that we will always be grateful for ! And also will be are go to guy for pictures in the future !
