    We had gone to a couple of bridal shows and had met a lot of photographers there. But nothing compared to Bob and Tammy at Blue Diamond Photography. As soon as we met them we knew we wanted Blue Diamond. They are wonderful professionals who very obviously know their stuff. Our first meeting with Bob we clicked with him.
    Now that being said, their work speaks for itself. They take breathtaking photos. Our engagement photos were so perfect, we really could not ask for anything more amazing.
    At our wedding Bob and Tammy were there for every moment. They made us comfortable in front of the camera (which neither of us was) and we had so much fun with them. They are true professionals and true artists. We are so happy with our choice. Our families and friends loved them, they were wonderful with everyone, including the little ones.
    If there is any advice I can give to anyone planning a wedding, it is hire professionals and LISTEN to them. They know what they are doing. Photographs were the most important thing for my husband and I and we made the right choice going with the best.
    Thank you Bob, Lauren, and Tammy!

    Wow! Bob and Tammy are amazing! They are fun and easy to work with. They are so complimentary to one another and were able to go with the flow really easily. They were also able to be involved without being invasive throughout the ceremony. Their work speaks for itself, but more importantly who Bob and Tammy are made our night so special. Thank you!

    I first met Bob at a bridal expo in Hartford in 2016 and I fell in love with his photography work instantly. I left the expo telling my girls and my (then fiancé) husband that I would not settle for any less. Photography was the one area I was not willing to “settle” for and skimp on. When my husband and I met with Bob, he was professional, prompt, organized and to the point. He met us right in our town at a coffee shop and my husband agreed that he would be our wedding photographer. Our engagement photos were taken in July 2016 and the shoot was so fun and memorable! We received so many compliments on our photos and every one wanted to know about Blue Diamond Photography!
    We ended up having to change our wedding date and location twice and Bob was accommodating, polite and understanding. He kept our deposit and helped us choose a wedding date when he & Tammy were available. Fast forward to our wedding day in May 2018...I couldn’t have asked for a more organized, assertive and professional duo to make forever memories of our special day! Bob took charge, connected with our families, and Tammy had an artistic eye and energetic personality that any bride would love and appreciate! Thanks to these two, our entire event stayed on schedule and they were able to keep the other vendors in line! They made sure my husband and I got every shot we wanted and they included every person on our list to be photographed.
    Our “sneak peek” photos were amazing and came quickly. People were an awe with the quality and style of our first 17 pictures and I couldn’t wait to see them all! Our album arrived and it is leather bound, made in Italy. It is gorgeous, to say the least! THANK YOU to Bob and Tammy for our forever memories! Your wedding day happens only once, but photos last a lifetime! I highly recommend that you trust Blue Diamond to document and share your once in a lifetime day!

    Great Photographer!

    Bob, we can’t begin to thank you for everything you did to make our sons wedding so incredible. From photographing the guys at our home in the morning being pampered by the traveling barber, to the lighting design at Wadsworth Mansion, to the extensive list of photo requests, to Tammy’s gentle touch with the bride, to all the special personal touches, you helped make their dream wedding come to life. And most importantly you are the one who will help us keep those memories for life. Our sneak peak of pictures are incredible! We can’t wait to see all the many details and moments put together so we can relive their magical day. Thank you!! Libby and Mike

    Bob was super attentive all night in getting all the shots he thought should be captured throughout our special day! He was right on time and picked up every small detail in all photos. He was the best of the best! I would highly recommend him as a photographer!

    Bob is such a professional, helpful, and creative photographer. We couldn't be happier with our engagement photos! We used them on our wedding invitations and received many compliments on the quality of his work. He helped us both feel comfortable during our photo shoot, and even gave us advice for our wedding day photos. He was so flexible with rescheduling when the weather conditions weren't optimal - we can't recommend him enough!

    My husband and I were truly blessed to work with Blue Diamond. We really struggled with finding a photographer for our wedding. We were finding ones who took no pride in their work. Then we found Bob. I will never forget when we first met him. He met us at a diner and came in with 4 giant briefcases filled with beautiful albums. He told us all about his company and the kinds of weddings he's done. He was so professional, so helpful in answering all our questions and his work was so amazing I remember tearing up looking at the photos. We hired him on the spot! We did an engagement session with Bob. It was so much fun. He met us at a location of our choosing and he even allowed us to go to two places. We felt so comfortable with him. He gave us different poses and then allowed us to just be ourselves. The final product was amazing. We took photos right into sunset and Bob was able to get some amazing shots. Later on Tammy shot my bridal shower. Whatever photos I wanted, Tammy had no problem getting them. Everyone loved her and her work was incredible. I had the whole team for my wedding - Bob and Tammy for photos and Nick and Eric for video. Yet again, whatever photos we wanted, they were there to take them. There were some photos we wanted that we didn't plan on ahead of time but it was no problem. Throughout the day we just kept calling on them to take this photo and that photo and it was just so much fun. Bob was even there to help fix my makeup when I ended up crying a little! I can't say enough wonderful things about the Blue Diamond team. They were professional, courteous, on time, beyond talented and non intrusive. My guests loved them. Their packages and prices were incredibly reasonable. We really can't thank them enough for all their hard work.

    Bob Young was excellent!! He is so fun with work with and he really does care about the couple and what will make them happy. Not alot of vendors care about that and Bob is such a sweet guy. We had so much fun on our engagement session and Bob really helped our wedding day go smoothly. All our guests and family members said they thought Bob and his assistant Tammy were so nice and easy to work with. That means alot to us especially since they did not have to be as great as they were that day but they were! Bob and Tammy helped make our day special and we can't wait to see our pictures! I would totally recommend Blue Diamond Photography!!

    My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed working with Bob and his team from the very beginning at our engagement shoot, right up to the end when we received our photos and ordered our album. The photos are AMAZING and he makes you feel very comfortable through the entire process but one of my favorite things about working with Bob was the fact you did not need a wedding planner. He had feedback on everything you could have possibly wondered and played an intricate role in laying out the greatest wedding day itinerary. Our day was perfect and couldn't have run smoother and a lot of this was attributed to the Blue Diamond team!

    I could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. Bob and Tammy were our photographers and they were amazing. Bob really goes above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and his pictures are incredible. Photography was one of the most important things to me so I did a lot of research. I'm glad to say that I definitely picked the right one. I highly recommend Blue Diamond Photography and promise you will not regret it if you book them. :)

    Bob and Tammy were great to work with! They had great picture ideas and helpful suggestions for planning and timing. Our engagement photos came out great and the few wedding ones we've received so far are fantastic, I can't wait for the rest! Not only is the picture quality great, but they both worked hard throughout the day to capture every moment. Several guests made comments saying that "the photographers were everywhere and took so many pictures". I was glad to know they were both working so hard to capture everything.

    We owe the folks at Blue Diamond Photography a huge thanks for capturing all the moments of our entire day. Bob was especially helpful in helping us set up the contract, doing our engagement shoot, and assisting us not just with the photography aspect but with the whole wedding day timeline. From the first brushes of makeup, through the first look shoot, and all the way to the end when we drove off together, Bob and Tammy were there making sure nothing was missed. Tammy was the best, talking to me (the groom) while I was waiting for my bride to arrive at the first look, keeping me calm and laughing, letting me ramble on about my soon-to-be-wife. The photos we've gotten back are absolutely incredible. So many times, we've said to each other, "I don't remember that! I'm glad they got that picture." We're really looking forward to seeing the album design. These photos are something we'll treasure forever. Thank you Bob, Tammy, and everyone else at Blue Diamond Photography!

    Bob is a professional. Personable and easy to work with. Takes note of details to make sure your pictures come out beautiful. Our engagement shoot was great and I can't wait to see the pictures we get on our actual wedding day!

    My friend just got married and looking at her wedding pictures makes me realize how disappointed I am with mine. My biggest complaint is that I have very few pictures of my guests from the reception and cocktail hour. I was looking forward to seeing these pictures since you don't get to see everything that goes on at the reception and I had only a few pictures of my guests. I was told by a guest that my second photographer Tammy was actually chatting up one of my male guests for the last 1-2 hours of my reception instead of working. I was furious when I found this out and if I had known this sooner I would have made a big deal of it. Secondly I gave my photographer a list of the formal pictures that I wanted. Somehow even with the list I have no pictures of my sister in law and no pictures of my grandmothers. As a matter of fact, out of the 600 pictures I was given I have ONE picture of my sister in law. Thirdly there were details in the pictures that should have been noticed and fixed (crooked tie, crooked sign, wrinkled jacket, etc) and when I asked my photographer why he didn't fix these details I was told that it was not his responsibility and he was not responsible for how people dressed themselves. Well the groomsmen had no idea their ties were crooked and a little help would have been appreciated.
    Fourth, he only took one shot of each portrait with the groomsmen and bridesmaids but a lot didn't come out . Some eyes are closed and some stances were off . Lastly I was promised 1000 photos. I had two photographers that were there 13 hours but only received 600 photos. And there were a lot of duplicates . I have about six or seven pictures of my shoes, five of my earrings , etc. I have no pictures of my husband getting ready and I feel a lot of important details were not captured. Most upsetting was that Bob was very unapologetic and just offered me excuses for everything . I am still upset with pictures and wish I had chosen a different photographer .
