    Wow! Dave is a fantastic photographer. He made both our guests and my husband and I feel amazing and special.

    He is definitely worth it as I have seen his end results as he was the photographer for my 2 friends weddings, which is where I chatted to him and saw how well he treats the people he photographs.

    I highly recommend him. You will treasure your photos for life!!!

    Dave is absolutely amazing! His work really stands out! Our wedding photos are interesting and unique. They are definitely not like anyone else's photos. There is not one photo that we don't love. It truly captures every moment.

    Dave is not only an amazing photographer, but he is such a nice guy. He is fun, outgoing, and made our wedding day an absolute blast. He brings to the table a professionalism that is not often seen and his work speaks for itself. I am not the most photogenic person but he managed to make me look like a movie star and make my wife look even more beautiful. Thank you for being part of our special day :-D

    After meeting with Dave to explain our plan to have a surprise wedding at our engagement party his excitement and enthusiasm equalled ours, so we knew it was a good match.
    On the day of the engagement party we had a pre-party photo session with Dave. He was absolutely fantastic at making wedding photos an enjoyable and relaxing experience. Dave had great ideas for locations and compositions yet still listened to and incorporated our ideas into the shoot.
    At the engagement party Charlotte joined our night for a few hours, when the surprise ceremony started, everything happened so quickly, but Dave and Charlotte captured it all. Dave and Charlotte are extremely professional, they have a high level of care for their clients and are truly passionate about their craft.
    Thanks to Dave and Charlotte, we are going to cherish and laugh at the surprised look on our friends and family faces for years to come. Dave and Charlotte have delivered us some truly unique and beautiful photos.

    Charlotte, we were so incredibly lucky to have you for our amazing wedding day. You were the first photographer we met when looking around and knew straight away we had to lock you in! You truly made our day one that we will never forget. Not only with the most incredible photos to look back on years from now, but so many memories of the fun we had being part of every shot. You brought the best out in us in a way that felt like we had been best friends with you since we were kids. Our love for each other including our quirky and regular craziness was captured in a way we didn’t even know ourselves.
    You are amazeballs and we can never thank you enough.
    Much Love Rob & Izzy

    Working with Dave was a fantastic experience. He has a wonderful energy that put us at ease immediately and allowed us to just be ourselves. Our engagement shoot was a wonderful opportunity for my husband and I to reconnect before the wedding and Dave's has an incredible eye for determining what angles/lights will create and perfect picture and he has talent for creating the space a couple needs to get into he moment. On our wedding day, he was so positive, genuinely happy for us and he has a very unobtrusive nature about him that made the entire experience stress free. Some of our favorite pictures are the candid moments he was able to capture. He was extremely flexible along the way in terms of scheduling and package changes and he had helpful suggestions along the way towards having the day go smoothly. We have beautiful pictures that we will cherish for a lifetime! We hope we can work with Dave again!

    If you want to have the best photo's and not have to worry about anything...then hire Dave. Not only is the work high quality but all the attention to detail, he goes beyond expectations, even leading up to the wedding helping us get organised with the timeline and bringing our attention to those little things that we completely forgot to think about. There was never a moment throughout the wedding where we were thinking, 'where is the photographer, I want to make sure this gets shot!' I swear he must've had about 10 clones working throughout the wedding, he seemed to be everywhere all the time! We heard so many guests talk about how good he was, that somehow whenever something was happening he was already right there getting a good angle on it.

    If you are looking for a photographer who understands just how important your “Special Day” truly is, and someone who’s work will speak for itself, I highly recommend Dave & Charlotte. Dave's work is truly phenomenal! We would hire him any time again!

    Excellent photographer. What more can we say. Dave is highly skilled in his art. He is not intrusive and yet is still able to get the shot. What's best, is that it felt like just another friend at the ceremony, he was so easy to work with and flexible in his approach. The pre and post ceremony photo shoots were just so relaxed. Set us up for the whole day. And of course, the photos are amazing. He had the photos delivered to us as promised and more. Would go with Dave again in a flash!

    Dave was absolutely fantastic with us. He captured all the emotions of our special day. We couldn't dream about a better photographer and we can't believe how amazing the photos are, especially considering it was raining on our wedding day. He has so much talent he made us forget about the rain and focus only about the beauty of the moment we were living. And all of that is captured on the photos. We would definitely recommend him.

    Dave and Charlotte are a husband and wife photogrpahy team who are extremely professional and passionate about what they do.

    We had Charlotte for our wedding photographer and she was a dream come true she is so warm, bubbbly, kind and caring. She puts her heart and soul into every picture she takes. We were so thrilled with our photos and the album she created. The compliments we receive about the photos are just amazing.

    Best wedding photographers you will ever find they are worth every penny.

    As I’m sure most brides know...picking your photographer for your big day is probably the most important task besides finding THE DRESS. I stumbled across Dave & Charlotte whilst online and sent them an email as we were looking for a photographer willing to travel overseas for our wedding in Thailand. After the initial email was sent and Dave got in touch I organised a Skype meeting with his lovely wife Charlotte who would end up being our photographer. From that first meeting I knew we had found the one and they were both so accommodating with our wants and needs.
    Charlotte met us at our wedding resort in Thailand for our Pre-wedding shoot and we were both so impressed at the research she had done to pick the best places for our shots. We felt so comfortable with her, especially because neither of us feel overly comfortable in front of the camera, but due to her amazing skills she created the most beautiful natural photos.
    The wedding day arrived and again we were so happy with how it all went. Charlotte was there to capture all the special moments and all of our guests found her to be so lovely and she fit straight in as if we had known her for a long time.
    I would highly recommend both Charlotte and Dave to anyone looking for professional, friendly and accommodating photographers...they made our amazing day that extra bit special.

    Competent, friendly, professional, accommodating... Dave has all these qualities and more. My husband and I could not be more satisfied with our decision to hire Dave as our photographer for our engagement and wedding. From the very beginning, Dave has always been quick to respond to our emails/phone calls and flexible with arranging skype sessions when we were too far apart to have in-person meetings. He is so knowledgeable about not only getting the "good shot" but also capturing the essence and emotions behind the picture. Our family and friends commented several times about how great Dave was at getting everyone to relax, giving little pointers about angles and lighting, and most importantly the quality of his work -- worth every penny! Our package also included an engagement book and wedding album which are truly exceptional. We do not have one negative thing to say about our experience with Dave and look forward to catching up with him over a beer or two the next time he's in town. Thank you Dave & Charlotte Photography, we can say without hesitation that you truly are the best!

    If you are contemplating using Dave and Charlotte for your engagement or wedding photography - book them! Hands down, the best of the best in Toronto. They are the smartest investment you will make to have your special moments captured forever. We have received nothing but compliments from on guests on their professionalism at our wedding, their easy going attitude and the end result - beautiful photos of the happiest day of our lives. We couldn't be happier with our decision.

    Best money we spent on our wedding! Dave is a true professional and really puts you in the moment. We looked at many photographers and picked Dave because he really captures every little detail and takes pictures of everything. Fast at responding and only good things! Daniel Bloch

    Sheila:
    I was extremely lucky to stumble onto Dave & Charlotte's website during my search. They offered exactly what I was looking for, and I was even more happy to see that they had tons of experience shooting diverse couples and groups of people with hugely different skintones. When I contacted Dave, he spent months of time corresponding with me, ultimately helping me decide on Casa Loma as the venue and D&C as our photographers.

    During the day of the wedding, they helped take away the growing stresses I had over constant timeline shifts and coordinating the masses of people in the wedding party. They were extremely careful when dealing with guests and staying out of the way when necessary. My mother was also impressed by the candids of her turning out the way they did, as she hardly knew when a camera was actually on her. To add to that, Charlotte was carrying a printed list of shot ideas which I had made months before on google docs and had forgotten about, which speaks to how organized and tech-savvy they are.

    In the end, we had hundreds of great photos ranging from unexpected candids to editorial-like shots that belong in a magazine. These photos are the only way for friends and family who couldn't attend the wedding to experience it like they were there - and we got the digital photos within the week. With Dave & Charlotte's particular style, one feels a genuine closeness to the couple and the wedding party by looking at the photos. Dave & Charlotte captured our romantic fantasy wedding perfectly and, fittingly, their Finao albums will probably last centuries.

    Deacon:
    Much thanks to Dave, Charlotte and Mike who worked together to deliver an album of magical memories from our wedding. Thanks to their combined talents, we can forever treasure all the finest memories from our special day. I would highly recommend their services to anyone who'll accept nothing but the best - because that's what you'll get and it's what a wedding truly deserves.

    We were so fortunate to have Dave capture our perfect day for us. He did an incredible job, not just in producing amazing photos, but doing so with utmost professionalism, patience, and unobtrusiveness. Dave paid close attention to detail, listened to what we wanted, and was willing to entertain our (at times outlandish) requests. Thanks Dave for making our special day that much more memorable!

    We have no idea where to start raving about Dave and Charlotte they actually made our day even more special getting to share it with them. Guys thank you so much for such beautiful photos, for fitting in with our odd jokers in the bridal party and for making us feel so relaxed the whole day!

    We can't wait to have you guys photograph for our next event... when the time comes for the pitter patter of little feet you'll be getting a call without hesitation.

    We worked with both Dave and Charlotte and we just had the best time with them! We LOVE our pictures and loved the whole experience with them. They really made our day enjoyable.

    We would defiantly recommend them to anyone.
    They also worked very well with our videographer which seemed to be a big issue with other photographers that we looked at.

    If you want something different and creative go with these guys :o)

    We were extremely happy with Dave and Charlotte for our wedding. They were so helpful even when we were just enquiring about packages and pricing. They were flexible with what package suited us best and went above and beyond our expectations.
    We loved their creativeness on the day and our photos have turned out amazing.
    I would highly recommend them!

    Dave and Charlotte helped make our wedding day unforgettable. They helped direct a less than orderly crowd which helped alleviate a lot of my stress. With 300 people at our wedding it was hard to know what was happening everywhere, but looking at the pictures they captured all the moments for me. Dave was open to my ideas and the pictures of us came out exactly as I pictured it. They were the most professional vendors at our wedding and I never had to worry about them once. They were a great addition and I would definitly recommend their services to everyone.

    Dave and Charlotte are awesome photographers and if you are looking for someone to do your wedding photography look no further! They were very helpful with selecting a wedding date and suggesting ideas that made our dream a reality. We were married October 4, 2011 and Dave captured every moment perfectly. Kevin was not the most photogenic person in front of the camera and he made him feel comfortable and got tons of great shots. Dave was always professional and fun at the same time and you couldn't ask for anything better. So if your looking for traditional and creative photos while having fun at the same time Dave & Charlotte are the photographers for you. If I had to do it over again I wouldn't change a thing. We now have memories to last a lifetime and we have Dave to thank for it! Thank you so much! Lisa & Kevin

    Aside from completely lacking a sense of humor... Kidding. We laughed through the entire process and kidded and joked endlessly.

    Dave was an absolute GEM. He was a true "5" in every way and he took the time to "get" us. He understood our personalities and matched his skill at capturing images to our crazy way of creating them.

    He is a rare find and we consider him a friend now that the big day is over. If you want exceptional value and great results - use this team of consummate professionals.

    Dave and Charlotte were more than photographers on the day of our wedding. They helped us stay on schedule, kept an eye out on the slightest details (ex. I had a small strand of hair that was out of place) and provided us with amazing beautiful photos. We didn't hire a videographer and there were no regrets because the pictures captured each important moment and again, every detail was there. D&C are both very passionate about their work and it definitely shines through.
