    The Best Decision We Made for Our Wedding

    We cannot recommend David enough! He has such an incredible eye for capturing unique and meaningful moments, and every single photo turned out beautifully. He was also so efficient on our wedding day, making sure we got all the photos we wanted while keeping everything stress-free and running smoothly. We had him for both our engagement session and our wedding, and he absolutely exceeded our expectations. We’ll be recommending him to everyone we know!

    Dave is the best!!

    Dave really is the best! From making planning easy for us to being responsive and open to what we wanted for photos, he was so helpful! We are definitely not big into taking pictures of ourselves but Dave helped us every step of the way! Planning was very easy as he had a questionnaire with open communication before the big day. His time efficiency was amazing ! Capturing all the important details with ease. We opted for a second photographer for part of the big day and Misty did not disappoint either! Payments were made over time on a reasonable schedule which made it very doable for us. We received all of the photos from that day within a week and a half after the wedding. Dave and Misty were able to capture all of our special moments and personality throughout. 10/10 recommend Dave Champagne!

    Our Wedding Day

    David provided beautiful photos with excellent communication. From the moment we first got in contact, David truly wanted to get to know our story. He noted specific and special moments that we knew we did not want to miss on our day. We are truly grateful for his expertise and time he dedicated to capture our wedding day. On the day of, he was on top of our planned itinerary. He knew exactly how to pose everyone - big and small groups. David was personable and caring. We admired his quick responsiveness and how he swapped between cameras. Even though it rained on our wedding day, David still managed to bring the magic that we will cherish forever. Thank you David for everything! Alex and Sara

    Phenomenal wedding photographer

    David Champagne Photography was phenomenal to work with from the very beginning. We have had the pleasure of working with David twice now and he does not dissapoint. His attention to detail and ability to capture so many perfect moments are just a small amount of what makes working with him so wonderful!
    David captured thousands of photos of our daughter's special day and didn't miss one single detail. The intimate details of the wedding, the laughter, fun, and love can be seen in every photo.
    David made the entire process flawless and we could not be happier with the end result. We would recommend David Champage Photography to any and everyone looking for someone that takes the time to create beautiful memories that will last a lifetime!

    Stop searching - David is your photographer!

    David made me feel like such a priority from the very first phone call. His passion for this is evident. He also has a passion for people, and everyone was happy to be in his presence. His skills, knowledge, and experience made this the easiest process and we cannot thank him enough. He was attentive and creative throughout the day, didn’t miss a single thing, and went above and beyond to deliver quality photos - both standard and artistic. I wish I could have another ceremony just to get more of his phenomenal photos. He is simply an expert and gave us a gift. He eternalized our special day exactly how we experienced it. He delivered the photos promptly and simplified every logistical aspect for a stress free experience. I would HIGHLY recommend David to anyone interested in perfection :) I would suggest him to my dearest friends and family too. Thank you again David for all the work you put into this job for us. We cannot thank you enough!

    Breathtaking Photography from the best in the business!

    David was referred to us by our wedding planner and from our very first meet-n-greet, we knew he was the perfect person to capture our special day. David was very organized and had great questions for us which sparked ideas towards more uniqueness for our wedding day. We had so much fun working with David and the pictures he took blew our minds away. He is truly so very gifted with his camera. He knew just how to make every picture the most beautiful picture in the world. So fun and easy going he truly was so great to work with!

    The Best Photography Experience

    David was the perfect photographer for our wedding. Not only did he capture incredibly beautiful moments from the day, he was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was especially good with the kids, getting them to smile and laugh seemingly on cue. We could not recommend him more!

    Professional and Talented, 30 stars out of 10!

    David Champagne Photography is amazing!! David was well prepared and organized from the beginning, and walked us through everything from the first email to the day of the wedding itself. He was great with helping with us figuring out our desired shots, and the picture quality is superb. His overall knowledge of weddings in general, from helping my wife with her dress to the flowers, was an unexpected bonus. Definitely consider hiring this company!!

    Cannot recommend David enough! He was FANTASTIC!

    We are thrilled to have had David as our photographer for our wedding! After seeing the incredible photos he took at a dear friend’s wedding, we knew he was the perfect choice to capture our big day. David is not only exceptionally talented, but he’s also so fun to work with, incredibly responsive, and very patient.

    Our engagement photos turned out beautifully, and we can’t wait to relive our wedding day through his lens. David's work is truly exceptional, and we highly recommend him for any occasion—weddings, family photos, senior photos, and more!

    Truly the best around!!

    I knew before booking David, he was who I wanted to capture our special day! His work speaks for itself! However, after meeting him I 100% new I had made the right choice. David is approachable and professional. He makes you feel comfortable the whole time. He goes above and beyond to make sure he moves at your pace all while keeping you on a schedule. He gives visual cues while take pics to make sure you understand what needs to be done. There was never a moment of confusion when working with David. He really is the best around!

    Incredible photographer and artist

    I could not have been happier with my choice of photographer. David was truly incredible. He did a great job at making sure we truly enjoyed our day and were not focused on the "photoshoot" aspect. We ended the evening with over 3,000 photos and I really love them all. He had a great eye and ideas for photos I never would have thought of myself.

He has an incredible knack for making the experience fun and enjoyable, which was reflected in the candid and joyous images he captured. Overall, working with David was a delightful experience. We highly recommend David to anyone seeking a photographer who not only delivers stunning images but also makes the entire process a pleasure! Thank you so much David!!

    Would choose David again and again!

    David has an excellent eye and his attention to detail is very impressive. Working with David brought a calmness to our wedding day. My husband was a bit apprehensive with the photography because he didn’t want to feel like there was a camera in his face all day. He has mentioned multiple times how great David was and how he didn’t feel pressure and felt very relaxed. I would highly recommend David Champagne Photography.

    Wonderful experience from engagement shoot until wedding day.

    David was wonderful to work with, from our engagement shoot until the wedding day. He made myself and everyone else feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos were absolutely amazing. I will treasure them for a lifetime. I’m so grateful David was our photographer.

    Not your average photographer

    We initially chose David due to his style of photography. He uses true color and he takes creative liberties in his shots. He NAILED our pictures. We took initial photographs in the Glasslight Museum due to the bold, vibrant, and modern look. He used that to his advantage and CRUSHED our photos. No photo is boring. I made a list of around 80 family photo combinations I wanted. He was able to create a time line and stay within those boundaries on the actual day which is shocking. He took incredible photos at our reception which capture the joy, excitement, celebration and alcohol drive insanity of the evening. I could not be happier with my choice of David!

    David was fantastic!

    We are overjoyed with the exceptional service provided by David. From the initial consultation to the final delivery of the photos, every step was executed with utmost professionalism. David kept our wedding day running according to our timeline so we didn’t feel rushed or miss any of our celebration. His keen eye for detail and creative approach resulted in a breathtaking collection of images that beautifully tell the story of our special day. Their ability to capture genuine emotions and candid moments truly sets them apart. David sent us every photo he took less than a week after our wedding. We feel incredibly fortunate to have chosen such a talented and dedicated professional for our wedding, and we wholeheartedly recommend David Champagne to anyone in search of a top-tier photographer. Five stars without a doubt!

    David was a phenomenal photographer and worth every penny! He was very quick so he wasted no time and didn’t miss a single moment. He worked nonstop until my wife and I left and got our pictures back to us within a week. Will be recommending him to all friends and family.

    For the perfect photographer, look no further.

    David Champagne is easily the absolute top tier when it comes to wedding photographers, hands down. We could not have asked for a better photographer to help memorialize our special day and he far exceeded even our wildest dreams for photographs! David was on time, on top of his schedule and most importantly an absolute BLAST to work with. Every photo is amazing and he has such a knack for getting the perfect shot and knowing how to pose people and interact with the guests. Every guest commented on how professional David was and he went along with all of the fun and silly little aspects of our wedding that we had. I cannot say enough how David was an integral part of making our wedding day absolutely perfect.

    Best wedding photographer

    David is the best wedding photographer we could have ever asked for! He beyond exceeded our expectations and we could not recommend him enough. He was so organized from the start and made it a stress free process leading up to the wedding day. He was so efficient with his pictures throughout the whole wedding which allowed us to spend much more time with our friends and family (which is what we wanted). He was so fun to work with on the day of our wedding while having a professional demeanor at the same time. The wedding pictures were ready in LESS THAN A WEEK which is unheard of and they are amazing!! Thank you so much to David for helping to make our day so special!

    Absolutely Amazing!

    We truly enjoyed working with David. He is very professional and made us very comfortable. He's great at what he does and is truly talented. Our favorite shot was when he was asked by our priest to come up to the altar to take a picture of the entire congregation. It was truly a moment to remember. We're so happy we chose him :)

    David Champagne Photography
    David and his team were incredible. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer, from our first meeting he went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was covered on our big day, the photos are truly exquisite and we have received so many compliments about them since. The way he captured every emotion through out the day was a work of art. If I was to ever need a photographer again I will definitely be giving David and his team a call thanks again for your professionalism and attention to detail in every way!

    The best wedding photographer in his field.

    If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding, DON'T LOOK ANY FURTHER! David is truly the best in his field. He was so easy to work with and kept everything on our desired timeline. He captured every wonderful moment of my daughter's wedding and when looking back at many of them, I felt as if I was reliving it all over again. Isn't that what you want when you look at photos that reflect those special moments? This is the photographer you want to make that happen.
    Thank you, David, for such a lovely experience on a day that goes all too quickly; you have given me something that transports me back to those beautiful moments each time I look at each of these photos! :)

    Best of the Best!

    David is truly the best of the best of wedding photographers! He is very experienced with weddings, helps you establish a timeline (and stick to it!), and most importantly is extremely talented in providing direction and also capturing all of the beautiful wedding moments. We absolutely love all of our wedding photos!

    Amazing!!!!

    David Champagne Photography was AMAZING as my wedding photographer! He is a true artist with an eye for the perfect shot. I wanted some creative flare to my portraits and he went above and beyond to scout locations, style the shots, place the lighting for the best effect. He was such an impressive one man team!! Not to mention we got our photos back SO quick, myself and all my friends and family were shocked to have them back so soon! We are absolutely thrilled with his work, would recommend a million times over!!

    The perfect person to capture our special moments

    It was an absolute pleasure working with David! We did an engagement shoot with him as well as hired him for our wedding photos, and we loved his work. He was so easy to communicate with, was the epitome of professionalism, and worked with us to make sure our photo timeline flowed smoothly and included everything that was important to us. We were over the moon that we got our photos - ALL of them - within a week of the wedding! Our family and friends can't stop raving about how beautiful they are and how they truly captured the magic of the day. Would highly recommend David to anyone looking for a photographer!

    Amazing!!!

    I researched photographers for my wedding and David's work looked amazing. I was instantly excited to book him and he did not disappoint! He was very professional in every aspect and amazing to work with. I informed him of my limited abilities with taking a decent photo and my fear of my wedding photos because of it. He was encouraging throughout the whole day and made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera. My photos came out amazing and I absolutely love them!! I'm looking forward to working with him in the future for family photos!

    The best decision we made

    Booking David was the best decision we made when planning our wedding! He is the supreme professional, from his communication skills to his artistic vision and eye. David went above and beyond our expectations from our first meeting with him, making sure to ask every question he could think of to be as prepared as possible. He has a gentle and calming demeanor that made photos totally stress-free even amidst unforeseen circumstances that made photo-taking chaotic and challenging. David even communicated with our venue on our behalf to ensure we could have access to every area needed for us to get the best photos possible. We got the photos back from him much quicker than expected - only a few weeks! The photos are gorgeous, perfectly staged with a natural feel and lovely editing. All my friends and family cannot believe how incredible our photos turned out. I would book David again and again. I would recommend him to absolutely anyone. You cannot go wrong booking him for your wedding!

    The best there is!

    David was amazing! He came recommended by two friends/coworkers and he did not disappoint. I’m not photogenic at all and don’t really like having my picture taken, but David put us at ease. He was so friendly and organized and all the pictures he took turned out beautiful. Looking back, the wedding day itself was a whirlwind. But one thing I do remember was that David was there every step of the way, capturing every moment. Even going around to all the tables to say hi to all our guests, David was there, never missing a shot. He also captured all the little details of the wedding that I never got to see, so it was nice having those photos to go back and look at. We would highly recommend him for your special day!

    Thanks David!!

    David was a pleasure to work with! He responded quickly to all of our questions, and made us feel confident we'd get all the photos we wanted.

    On the day of our wedding, David was super professional. He made everyone feel at ease, including our cat and the young children. I had mentioned feeling self conscious about my posture, and he was really great at reminding me to stand upright without drawing attention to it. He managed our group effortlessly even though we are a rowdy bunch. He planned a thorough schedule to make sure we would have time to capture everything that we wanted. Overall working with David was a total breeze in the day thanks to his professionalism.

    We got our photos back today, only 1 week after the wedding, and they are everything we imagined and more! Absolutely fantastic work, David!

    Fantastic!

    David was an absolute WONDER to work with. He captured every moment I could think of and more. We had to postpone our wedding twice due to COVID and he was so patient with us in having to reschedule. We got married on May 14th and received all of our images on May 18th. I was so incredibly pleased with the quality of the images and the speed in which we received them. He was so professional and understanding of all the important moments. I love how unlike most photographers you receive every single photo that he takes. It truly is the most bang for your buck. I will only ever recommend him to future brides. I can't thank him enough.

    The Best Around

    David Champagne was absolutely amazing! He came very well recommended by The Cavalier, which is where we had our reception. Aside from the fact that ALL my vendors knew him, they all continuously said such nice things about him and his work. I can't even begin to say how glad I am that he was our
    wedding photographer, he highly exceeded our expectations (like HIGHLY EXCEEDED). We got married 4/30/22 and I was so shocked with how quickly we got our photos. David took so many perfect and beautiful shots at our wedding. Everyone that has seen our photos have raved about how in awe they are of the photographers work and when I tell them that he is a team of one they are even more amazed. I also need to talk about how great he was getting photos with the flower girls and ring bearers, I can't believe that he got such perfect photos with all of them looking at the camera. Lastly, one of our favorite things about working with David was just how fun and professional he is. My bridal party, friends, and family loved seeing him do his work. He was always at the right spot getting the perfect shot. I will forever cherish these photos. We cannot recommend David enough as a wedding photographer!!!

    The best decision!

    David was amazing to work with! David photographed my sister's wedding a few years ago, and when I saw the pictures, I knew I had to hire him! Although he is based in the Virginia Beach area, he travelled to D.C. for my wedding. We delayed our wedding twice due to COVID, and he was extremely understanding and easy to work with. David is very engaged with the logistics of the day and sent a timeline in advance. Not only did the pictures turn out absolutely beautiful, but he made sure the day stayed on track and went smoothly. In addition, he is very detail oriented and captured every aspect of the day.

    Absolutely fabulous!!

    In all honesty words can not express how amazing David was at our wedding. He captured the most beautiful pictures of our wedding. He is quick, very helpful, and definitely will make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. He was on top of capturing every beautiful moment/detail from first look, the ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception. We were fortunate to have an absolutely beautiful sunny day and were able to take sunset photos. David showed me one of the photos on his camera and it literally took my breath away. David is someone I would 100% recommend to anyone to capture their wedding photos!!!

    Absolutely incredible photos!

    David is INCREDIBLE! Our photos are absolutely GORGEOUS! Many of our friends and family have said that they are the best wedding photos they have ever seen and my new husband and I agree completely. We absolutely love them and all of our friends and family can’t stop raving about them. David not only has a great eye for good photos, but he makes you feel comfortable and fully trusting in him. My husband in not photogenic and he looks great in every photo. David’s style is calm, efficient, kind, and professional, which clearly demonstrates years of experience that allows him to quickly get all of the shots he needs without feeling rushed or stressful. We actually really enjoyed posing for photos with David, and we expected to dislike posing for photographs. David knew exactly how to handle a crying flower girl, an anxious family member, a large bridal party, and he came up with ideas for photos that truly came out magical. Whenever guests were taking shots with one of us, he would swoop in and get a professional shot, recognizing that if we taking photos ourselves it must be an important shot. David was a joy to work with. It is clear he has a passion for what he does and values his work and his clients. I highly recommend David for your wedding. He is worth every penny!!

    Wedding Photographer Review - 7-16-21

    David is such an amazing photographer and person! He takes amazing photos and is such a pleasure to work with. He is professional and courteous. We had to postpone our wedding two times due to COVID, and he was flexible and made everything so easy for us! He took our engagement photos, our backyard socially-distanced wedding photos, and our big wedding celebration photos - and each time he impressed us more and more! He also worked really well with all of our vendors. He is one of the reasons why our big wedding day went so smoothly and was the best day of our lives.

    Selecting David was one of the best decisions we made!

    David Champagne is the absolute best. We are so thankful he was able to capture our engagement photos, COVID garden wedding, and finally the big wedding we planned before the world turned upside down. Through it all, David was incredibly supportive, professional, and captured all of our most special moments beautifully. David is a real artist in how he is able to capture the moment and is a consummate professional. We cannot recommend David enough.

    David Champagne is the best!

    David is the best! He took the most beautiful pictures of my daughter's wedding. ​He captured the magic of the day and some incredible moments to last for a lifetime. David is very responsive to email. He was on time, very organized, respectful, easy to work with, very professional and offered some ideas and guidance that we hadn't thought of. I'd recommend him 100%. You won't be disappointed!

    From our guests, "Your photographer is incredible"

    David does truly amazing work. Our pictures turned out even better than we could have possibly imagined. David was professional, kind, and efficient. This efficiency, which is no doubt a product of his many years of experience and expertise, was crucial as the day was quite long with many moving parts (and there is so much to capture). It was our pleasure to work with David and would highly recommend him to any couple looking for a wedding photographer.

    The best of the best!

    David is the absolute best! We loved having him as our photographer for our wedding this past weekend. Our pictures were absolutely beautiful. He is professional, kind, funny, and made sure everyone was comfortable and having a good time. He made sure all of our photos were perfect and he had the most wonderful ideas. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer. If you need photos taken, especially wedding photos, David is 100% the best and we highly recommend him! Thank you so much for everything, David!! :)

    We might not have had a wedding because of COVID, but we got amazing photos! David was wonderful to work with, he made everything easy for us, and gave great direction. He was really open to our ideas and was able to make sure they all came out wonderfully. Most of all he made the whole experience fun!

    All we can say is wow!! From the first time we saw David’s work we knew he had to photograph our wedding. He does such an amazing job! He has a very artistic style and captures every moment even better than you could imagine. We were told by several of our guests that David was the best photographer they have ever seen. He went above and Beyond with all of our pictures and made sure to stay on schedule so we weren’t late. I cannot say enough good things about David!

    Simply amazing!

    David is an amazingly talented photographer. He is professional but is so easy to get along with! We used him for both our engagement and wedding photos. The engagement photos were amazing and the sneak peaks we got from our wedding day were so perfect. David is great at giving direction on how to position your body to get just the right shot, which was great for awkward people like us! I cannot recommend David enough!

    No joke, the best photographer and person you could ever ask for!

    David was seriously the best photographer and person we could have gone with to support us and take beautiful photos on our wedding day. Not only did we love him, but both of our entire family members loved him. He was patient with everyone, family and bridal party included and made sure to prioritize what we wanted out of the day. I seriously cannot say enough kind things about this man's work and who he is as a person! He is so fun and made us feel comfortable and taken care of. After our engagement session I had no worries or anxieties about him capturing the beauty of our wedding day and all the laughs that came with it. He is work every penny and more! He helps plan the schedule for the photos of the day and we were ahead of schedule the whole time! You won't regret booking him!!

    David Champagne is AMAZING!

    Hiring David Champagne as our wedding photographer for our October 2020 wedding in Virginia Beach was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. Not only were our wedding photographs absolutely unbelievable, but David got them back to us in just two days! David made the entire process so easy, even when we were unsure if we were going to be able to have our wedding as planned due to COVID, David always responded to our emails/calls within a day, reassuring us and answering all of our questions. His level of professionalism was outstanding, from the very beginning he helped us create a wedding day timeline that kept us on schedule throughout the entire day. David was an excellent communicator and for our entire wedding day he was always positive, calm, and had a great sense of humor that kept us laughing. David helped us with every aspect, from making recommendations for great spots for photographs, to making sure everyone in each photograph looked amazing, and even coaching us through all the little details! We never felt rushed taking pictures- David made sure we stayed ahead of schedule and made sure we were able to take every picture we wanted! Many guests came up to me throughout the evening to comment how friendly, organized, efficient, and professional our photographer was. I would absolutely recommend David Champagne to anyone that needs to hire a wedding photographer- his amazing photographs speak for themselves, but his experience, personality, and organization went above and beyond! David- working with you was a pleasure and we are forever grateful for all of the beautiful photographs of our wedding day. Thank you for everything!!

    Just wonderful

    We used to David to photograph our 09/04/2020 wedding. He was amazing from start to finish. His pictures speak for themselves and he captured every detail perfectly. They’re absolutely beautiful and it’s so hard narrowing down favorites because they’re all great. David was also kind, flexible, and fun to work with. He was able to handle our three covid wedding dates and thankfully was available for our September wedding when covid prevented our original May and July dates! He was always just a quick email away. He worked hard to keep us on schedule the day of and made sure every detail was captured. He even helped the day of with showing us how to put my veil on and the boutineers on. He checked in to see if there were any other photos we wanted and even helped us rearrange our timeline to get awesome beach sunset photos. Oh and he had our photos back to us in TEN DAYS. Can’t say enough good things about David!!!

    Talented Photographer!!

    David Champagne is not only extremely talented, but professional and fun to work with! I did a bridal session that turned out amazing and he also included my family who came to help out! During our wedding day, he ensured we maintained our timeline and we were even running 10-15 mins early for most of it which was a huge stress reliever! When it decided to rain on our wedding day and limited our photo session during cocktail hour, David made sure we made the most of it and our pictures turned out better than we could have ever imagined despite not being able to stick to our original plan. You won’t regret hiring David Champagne for your big day! He knows how to use his cameras and doesn’t over edit photos like a lot of photographers do now-a-days. Thank you David! We can’t wait to treasure these photos for a lifetime. 😊

    Wonderful Photographer!

    David was wonderful - We can not say enough great things about him! We knew of David's work prior due to him capturing a local couple's wedding 4 years ago - we just knew that we had to book him for our own wedding! Our engagement photos were gorgeous (and a quick turn around time too). With our (COVID) wedding plans ever-changing due to the pandemic, David was very patient and keep continuous communication with us to make sure we were all up to date on the latest plans. When it was the day of the wedding, he was organized (which I am so grateful for), kept us to the timeline (we were even ahead of schedule!), and was definitely a calm presence during the rush of the day. Our photos arrived in a little over two weeks. We loved looking through all of our photos. He not only captures the small details of the day but the important candid moments and of course your portrait-like photos. Needless to say, we would definitely recommend David Champagne Photography!

    Can't Speak Highly Enough About David

    We simply cannot speak highly enough about David Champagne Photography. We had a somewhat unique wedding experience, being married during the height of the global pandemic. David took the challenge of photographing our ever-changing ceremony with such grace, adaptability, and sincere consideration, both my wife and I were amazed at how above-and-beyond he went. David was creative, respectful, fun, and caring throughout the whole day. His professionalism and experience shine through by knowing exactly where to be and exactly what needs to happen next. We look forward to using David Champagne Photography again in the future if we have the wedding celebration we had originally planned. And we look forward to using David Champagne Photography for all life's big events!

    Beyond Excellent

    We first found David from the wonderful pictures our venue had posted around their wedding showroom. We looked further into his reviews and portfolio on his website and knew we had to book him! Booking David as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made! His warm, friendly personality was evident during our first video chat. Every time we communicated with David, we breathed a sigh of relief because we knew we had an absolute professional on our team. On the day of our wedding, David truly showed his professionalism, skill, and experience. He knew exactly how to pose our bridal party so we looked our best and he was able to make us laugh as he captured the perfect candids. His timeline planning was so efficient, flexible, and flawless. We were able to enjoy our cocktail hour, dinner, dance the night away AND take all the pictures we could have ever wanted. When we received our pictures, we were blown away! David did such an amazing job and we can’t thank him enough for capturing the perfection of our wedding day. David Champagne is THE photographer you want to book for your wedding, no doubt about it!

    The Best Photographer We Could Have EVER Hoped For!! A+++++

    Working with David was an absolute delight, and probably one of the best (if not the best decision) we made in planning our wedding. Not only were the photos incredible, but David’s level of professionalism and fun personality was beyond what we could have hoped for. If I could give him 1000 stars I would. From the first meeting we knew we had made the right decision in coming to David. His experience, organization, and sense of calm was exactly what we wanted. A bonus to his incredible photography work. David helped us throughout the process, including planning our timeline and a list of must have photo combinations. He was always available when we had a question. His general wedding experience throughout the planning process and the day of was so appreciated. We never felt rushed taking pictures, and he knew just how to pose everyone to get the perfect shot. I had several guests comment on how great the photographer was. In a heartbeat I would recommend David to anyone that needs to hire a professional photographer for anything. You will not regret it!!! Thank you, David, so much for making our big day even more special!! Working with you was an absolute pleasure! The photographs will be a keepsake in our family forever. Words can not express how grateful we are. THANK YOU!

    Absolutely fantastic - David is the best!

    David photographed my wedding, and he was absolutely fantastic! He is highly professional, provides excellent guidance, kept us on track, and (most importantly) took fantastic pictures. He over-delivered in every way, and I couldn't have imagined a better photographer. David is an absolute pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him for any special event or milestone you would like photographed!

    Best Decision

    With so many vendor options out there it’s hard knowing whether or not you made the right decision. Well with David I knew from the very first meeting he was the right choice. He was attentive, organized, and reduced stress like no other! Dave put the timeline together and kept the day in order even more so than my planners. He caught the most wonderful moments and you can tell he loves what he does. I honestly couldn’t be happier. Thank you, David!

    The Best of the Best

    Look no further, David is the absolute best! We knew we had to have him after seeing his images, and he well exceeded our expectations! He captured our engagement photos as well as our wedding day. He clearly loves what he does, and the quality of his photos speaks for itself!

    He is extremely professional and organized, and also super funny and creative. He’s always down for an adventure! During our engagement session he had us climbing out on rocks in the water to get the most beautiful dramatic shot. And during our wedding he brought us all the way up to the top of a garage to capture the sunset at the most perfect angle and time. During our actual ceremony and reception you wouldn’t know he was there, but the pictures show otherwise! He did not miss a single detail and captured all the right moments! He is so smart about where and how he sets up and moves around the space not to be a distraction. He wizzed through family pictures and did a great job of getting all our requests in a quick manner to keep things moving perfectly.

    We have showed friends and family our wedding pictures and everyone is blown away by the quality of the pictures, the colors and the shots he got. David’s brilliant vision captured our most important moments just the way we wanted with so much emotion that we can re-live the happiness of our wedding every time we look at them. My husband and I can’t wait to hire David again for all of our big life events down the road!

    A Toast to Mr. Champagne

    David was EXCELLENT! His communication was on point through the entire process. His schedule was flexible and we never felt like we were rushed. He caught some fire action shots during our dances and as the sun was setting. He was fine being pulled around during the reception to capture certain moments. Overall he was very easy to work with and I highly recommend him!

    Could not have asked for a better photographer!

    We can not express enough what a wonderful job David did for us. From the very first meeting it was clear that he was going to go above and beyond what we could expect. Not only did he have beautiful photos to show us of past events, and gorgeous options for photo albums, but he was able to lay out a timeline we could expect for the wedding day based on his past experiences (such as which tasks tend to run late, etc). Through every step of the planning process he would email the both of us with explicit instructions about what he needed in order to ensure we got all of the photos taken that we wanted. We could rest easy knowing that David had a plan for our big day. He kept us informed with out being pushy or burdening my already stressed out bride to be (Now wife) with minor details.

    David helped us decide on a first look which was perfect as we were able to enjoy our entire cocktail hour. He kept everyone moving and on schedule during our photo sessions, and took beautiful photos. We had our friends bring our dog to our first photo session, David was very accommodating and even managed to keep our dog looking at the camera the entire time.

    During the church ceremony and the reception David knew exactly where to be and when. He was never in the way, but always there taking the perfect photo when he had to be. We are both very impressed with the photos of our big day, and the treatment we received from the initial meeting until the last picture was taken.

    Quality AND Quantity

    We had both an engagement session and our wedding shot by David. His attention to detail is simply the best! He knows how to pose you in a way to flatter.. “shoulder back, elbow out, knee slightly bent” you won’t get your pictures back thinking you wish your arm looked better :) He truly is the best and there is a reason he has never had a bad review. He is easy to contact and stays in touch, covering every angle to make the already hectic day run smooth. The icing on the cake is that he sends you a flash drive with EVERY SINGLE PICTURE he took, even the funny blinking ones. Thank you, David. You made the best day of our lives that much better!!

    David is the best!!

    David was AMAZING!! So amazing that I chose to hire him as our wedding photographer after my sister used him 3 years ago for her own wedding! I knew I had to have him as my photographer also. We got married this summer in June on a horse farm where I keep my horse. David was able to help my husband and I plan our wedding timeline which was so helpful since I didn’t have an actual wedding coordinator. He basically filled this role for us! David was able to make last minute schedule changes to better fit our needs. On the day of, he made sure to never make me feel rushed. He always said, “the bride is never late.” David captured our special day so well, I cannot thank him enough!! Our pictures turned out so wonderful, it was everything I could have ever asked for! He made sure to include pictures with my horse as well which had been my dream for years. Please do yourself a favor and hire David!! You won’t regret it and you’ll love every picture!!!

    Master of His Craft

    David, was incredible to work with during the lead-up to our wedding and on our big day. He was detail-oriented and thorough in planning the photography timeline and throughout the day. David is a quintessential professional and master of his craft. We were drawn to his beautiful photography style, use of lighting and color, and his attention to every aspect of the wedding and reception detail.

    We highly recommend David for wedding photography. We could not have picked a better vendor. Thank you, David, for documenting this joyous occasion for us.

    David did such an amazing job capturing our wedding day....I could cry our pictures are just so beautiful. David is so nice and easy to work with I'm so happy we hired him to be our wedding photographer. He worked so hard the entire wedding, my family commented the next day he definitely earned all the money we paid and they're right. I'm so glad we were able to set aside a good photography budget and have our pictures done by the wonderful David Champagne!

    David was everything we could have hoped for! We feel so lucky to have gotten the chance to work with him. He was professional and helpful from the very beginning. On the day of the wedding he made sure we felt comfortable and helped direct our poses so the pictures would look as natural as possible. He showed us sneak peeks throughout the day which felt so special. The pictures turned out BEAUTIFUL and we got them SO fast! We got our pictures 5 days after the wedding and everyone who sees them says they’re the best they’ve seen! We have to agree :) We couldn’t recommend David enough!

    David is absolutely amazing!! We are so thrilled we selected him for our wedding day.

    Along the planning process ... my main focus was to capture our memories shared. He went above and beyond our expectations.

    He is so kind and pays attention to detail. Honestly, as a bride worrying about the timeline and details of the big day is so common. But having David as our photographer, that stress was relieved. He created a timeline for the day to ensure we got great photos and candids.

    He was so professional that ourselves and our guests didnt even realize he was there for the times celebrated.

    And, I was apprehensive about photos taking up time (prior to meeting David), but he had a great plan and worked with us. We had a blast taking photos and we believe he truly captured us as who we are as a couple.

    The photos came to us in such a timely manner, and he was supportive the entire wedding planning process, right up until the end of our big day.

    I am obssessed with our photos and love sharing them. The quality is fantastic and everyone who has seen our photos is in such awe.

    It feels like he captured a fairytale moment.

    We can't wait to hire him again for another big event my husband and I might share.

    Not only is David Champagne an amazingly talented photographer, but he’s a joy to work with! He captured beautiful memories of our daughter’s February wedding at New Life Church in Ghent and the reception that followed at the Woman’s Club of Portsmouth. He was very organized and went over many details with us prior to the wedding so that everything ran oh so smoothly the day of. He also had great suggestions for general wedding stress-busters and reminders based on his past experiences with brides, grooms, bridal parties, and families. He is calm, funny, professional, and his photographs are beautiful and creative. So happy with our photos and happy to recommend him!

Whether plans weren't going accordingly or we didn't really know how to pose for shots, he knew exactly how to handle the situation. He was very accommodating on our requests and never missed an opportunity for a great photo.

    Picking David as the photographer for my daughter's wedding was one of the best choices we made. We had the chance to view the work of several photographers at the same time and his work stood out as the best in the group. From first contact, through the planning stages, to the engagement shoot, and throughout the ten hours on the day of the wedding, he was nothing but highly professional, easy to work with, creative, and a joy to be around. From developing a timeline several weeks in advance, to being extremely helpful on the day of the wedding, and to crafting the 'perfect' shot, he continuously exceeded our expectations. We were blown away by how quickly he returned the pictures, by the number of shots we had to choose from, and the quality of each and every frame. What wonderful memories he has made for us. I would definitely hire him again!

    Book David immediately. We simply cannot recommend David enough. He is the consummate professional and is worth every penny! David worked with us every step of the way from our engagement photos to the final product.
    When we first me with David, he walked us through a sampling of his work and all of his different packages and products. The pricing structure he offers is very up front and no frills - you can add on pieces or products at any time with no penalty for not bundling them in the beginning. He even offers couples a payment plan to pay in installments leading up to the big day.
    Leading up to the big day, David helped us craft a “must have” photo list and timeline to ensure everything went smoothly on the wedding day and maximize the available daylight while minimizing the impact that taking the pictures would have on the wedding party and our family enjoying themselves. His timeline planning kept our day organized and stress free!
    On the wedding day, he was amazing - arriving early to ensure everything went exactly as planned and not leaving until we got some beautiful night time photos underneath the stars. While we were getting ready, he went above and beyond to set up the shots, make sure the dress looked perfect, and keep the wedding party organized and on schedule. During the event, he worked with us to perfect the lighting so that no off-camera umbrella flashes were needed and constantly checked up on us to see if there were any particular photos we wanted during the reception.
    If David fits within your budget, it’s a no-brainer - he is THE BEST. If you can trim your budget elsewhere to fit him in, do it - he’s WORTH IT! If your wedding is out of the Hampton Roads area, then buy him a plane ticket… you won’t be disappointed.

    David brought all my wishes and visions come true and beyond with my engagement and wedding pictures. His pictures are phenomenal. Not only that he is one of the kindest people I've ever met. He is capable of making everyone comfortable and he's funny. After I saw my engagement photos I knew I needed him for my wedding, which was in NY. David made everything easy on the business side and he was incredibly helpful the day of the wedding and before, creating a schedule for the day. My husband does NOT smile for pictures but David was able to get plenty. My friends and family loved him so much they were talking about him on a first name basis. He also gives you every picture be takes which is awesome, with no watermark. You won't regret having David!

    My husband and I have nothing but wonderful things to say about David! He beautifully captured every single moment of our wedding day, even the ones we didn’t know occurred. Not only is he an AMAZING photographer but he was great at making our friends and family feel comfortable in front of the camera.
    David is also extremely organized and kept us on track the entire day. As an organized person myself it was a relief to know I had absolutely nothing to worry about. We would recommend David to anyone! We will treasure our photos forever and can’t thank him enough.

    Where should we even begin.. David surpassed every expectation. We cannot say enough great things! From the very beginning, we knew David was who we wanted to capture our special day! There was no questioning it. David was the first photographer we met with and we booked right away. He is the absolute best!! He set up a timeline for the big day and fit in every little detail and photo we wanted. His photography speaks for itself!! We are so amazed at how everything turned out and cannot stop looking at all of our beautiful pictures. Which, by the way, we got back in less than 3 weeks! David, we are so overwhelmingly grateful for the way you captured our special day so that we can relive it over and over again. We hope to work with you again one day! Do yourself a favor and look no further. I promise you will NOT be disappointed!

    I can’t say enough about David Champagne, he was absolutely wonderful! He is a true professional and went above and beyond just taking beautiful pictures. It is hard to stand and smile for hundreds of photos, but he made it easy and fun. He is so knowledgeable, not only in his field, but in the entire wedding process. He pinned on the boutonnieres, offered to put in and take out my veil, showed me how to carry my dress so it didn’t drag, taught me and my husband how to dip, and more! I can’t imagine anyone else capturing our day as beautifully as David did. I am beyond happy with David and would recommend him over and over again. By far the best wedding vendor I have ever worked with.

    I cannot speak highly enough of David, he is hands down the best! He
    captured our special day in the most beautiful photos, ones I, my
    husband, and my family/friends will cherish for decades. He
    photographed gorgeous engagements photos as well. I hope to use David
    again in the future and would highly recommend him to all those
    seeking a photographer. In addition to being a brilliant photographer,
    David is incredibly organized and put together. He is a great
    communicator, kept me at ease throughout my wedding planning, and
    maintained the flow of our wedding day with a custom photo timeline. Thank
    you David!!

    David was absolutely amazing! Our photos looked beautiful and the bridal party had a blast because he was very entertaining! In the middle of hurricane winds and weather somehow he managed to make all of the photos look flawless and captured the most memorable moments. We loved working with David and would recommend him to anyone!

    David did a phenomenal job! We had no idea what we were doing when it came to planning the timing of our day but we knew that we wanted a first look, family photos before our outdoor ceremony, and sunset photos. David put together a timeline for the entire day to ensure we got all the photos we wanted. He was so calm and professional and kept everyone relaxed and happy. You can tell he really cares about your day and wants you to just enjoy it. That happiness really came through in our pictures. We were blown away by the moments and the looks that he was able to capture. Everyone that has seen our photos has been totally stunned by them. For us, the cost was a large portion of our budget but we had zero regrets about the investment from the very beginning. David is detailed oriented, responds to all questions promptly, and really cares that you are happy. Thank you David for really capturing the best in everyone at our wedding!

    We are so happy we chose David Champagne to be our photographer! He made us feel comfortable while taking our pictures as bride and groom, with our wedding party, and during the wedding ceremony and reception. We LOVED his pictures, they have come out beautifully. He takes wonderful pictures and has a lot of creativity behind them, as well as excellent attention to detail. He also paid close attention to detail leading up to the wedding. We knew what to expect on the wedding day and felt relieved that we knew what to expect on our wedding day. After the wedding, he was very prompt with giving us access to our pictures! We are so happy we chose David! He is a great photographer and you can tell he truly enjoys what he does!

    David did an amazing job capturing our big day!!! We absolutely LOVE our wedding and engagement photos and our family and friends continue to rave about how phenomenal they are, as well! He not only takes beautiful photos, but he also is very professional, attentive, responsive, and reliable. He is available to talk about details prior to the wedding and he works hard after the wedding to get you your photos quickly - I got mine in just 2 weeks! He also accomodates specific editing requests, if you have them, and his editing style is beautiful. Overall, we were very happy that we chose David and he has our highest recommendation!!!!!

    David Champagne is hands down one of the most amazing photographers I have ever seen. He is so friendly and so easy to get along with. Trust me, getting along with an event professional may not seem like it's that important, but you are going to be with your photographer on your wedding day almost as much as you are with your husband.

    The pictures that David got are some of the most breathtaking things I have ever seen. He is such an extraordinary photographer. If you are contemplating who to book, book David Champagne right now. You will 100% not regret it.

    David Champagne Photography is phenomenal. If you are checking out this page, you should contact him immediately for availability.
    Two words come to mind when I think of David's work: quality and professionalism. His photography is stunning, and he seemed to get the perfect shot so effortlessly - without any unneeded drama or delaying the timeline. We have gotten so many compliments on the photos we received. The turnaround time was excellent for over 3000+ images. David is a first-class wedding photographer and easy to work with. He was in constant communication leading up to the wedding, created a detailed timeline, and worked seamlessly with the other vendors, bridal party and guests. We have no regrets about hiring David.

    Photography is worth the money. You will always have those pictures to look back on and remind you of your day. David did amazing! He is so organized and time efficient, it really helped the day go smoothly. Not only is he so nice he really did know what he was doing. He was the one to perfect the bow on my dress and even took my veil out! Can't thank David enough for capturing our wedding!

    Working with David was one of the best parts of wedding planning! I discovered him at a bridal show and was immediately drawn to his friendliness, professionalism and the stunning modern images he had on display. The photographs had color and vibrancy that I'd never seen before- I loved them! We had David take our photos for both our engagement session and our wedding day (February 6, 2016). He was a huge help throughout the entire process- he helped us plan our wedding day timeline and offered imput when it came to our first look decision. At each session, David made my husband, myself and our bridal party comfortable in front of the camera. He really helped to keep us on schedule and made sure we got all the shots we wanted. I loved that we got a full 10 hours with him because it meant he could also be there for getting ready photos. David went above and beyond for us, helping to make sure I was warm while outside and that my grandmother's locket got affixed to my bouquet. He offered ideas of shots I would have never thought to take, which ended up being some of my favorites from the day! Overall, our experience with David was one of the best parts of our wedding day and the images he took were absolutely stunning! We are so thrilled to have chosen David to capture the best day ever.

    We picked David when looking at several photographer's books at our venue. He caught our eye with his creativity, brilliant color, and overall eye for details. Engagement pictures were amazing and we really like the yearbook option. Our guests left us sweet messages on our wedding day 12 March 2016. David hands down went above and beyond! 10 hours hanging out with such a cool individual was worth it. We absolutely love our pictures and received them within two weeks since it was off season. No regrets picking out David as our photographer.

    From our first meet-n-greet all the way through our ceremony and reception, David and his team were incredible. We opted to have a second photographer and were very happy with that decision. The amount of beautiful pictures we received took us hours to go through - you definitely get your money's worth, and then some!

    I appreciated David and his 2nd photographer's professionalism, kindness, and energy. My husband and I were all over the place during the reception, taking photos with friends, greeting family we hadn't seen in a while, and taking big family and friend photos; everywhere we went, David would be there, ready to take a photo! I never had to worry that a special moment might be missed - he captured every detail!

    I know how stressful wedding planning is and how nerve-racking it can be to try and pick the perfect vendors. I assure you that David is the right pick!

    It was fate that we found David and just in the nick of time. We had a tight deadline of 6 months to plan our Virginia Beach wedding and from out of town (AZ). As we vetted potential photographers and talked with friends and family we started realizing just how important it was to select the right photographer. We fell in love with his work, our wedding date was his absolute last opening for the season, and while we initially struggled with assigning so much of our budget to photography we knew it was the right decision.

    Between our gorgeous engagement session, his patient and goofy interactions with our friends and family, and the amazing body of work that is our wedding photos, we are so glad we found him! We have the most amazing photos that will last us a lifetime. We were even able to enjoy some of our cocktail hour thanks to his suggestion to do a first look. Our bridal party was pretty happy to go straight from ceremony to the bar as well!

    If you choose David you will not regret it. But don't wait, his talents have him in high demand so you better book your date before someone else does!

    David is hands down the one and only person you should be hiring to take your wedding photographs! I am a photographer myself and I was super worried about finding someone but the moment I saw David's portfolio online I knew we had to hire him. He has excellent photography skills including being able to shoot in different lighting situations, pays attention to details, gets tons of different angles and has fun photos. He is the complete package! We just received our photos from our Oct 10th wedding and there are so many great ones it is so hard to pick our favorites. You can't go wrong with hiring David :)

    David was amazing! Our wedding and engagement photos are everything I could have hoped and wished for! He was extremely professional (but so fun!) throughout the process. He helped create our day of timeline and rolled with the punches as we changed things last minute. Our pictures were ready so fast, I couldn’t believe it!

    There aren't enough words to describe how incredible David was to work with. My husband and I received our photos back from our wedding on 27 September 2015 and were blown away by the attention to detail that was captured. David was such a pleasure to work with, had a great attitude and made our experience so much fun! He was extremely responsive via email and phone and was patient in answering any questions my husband and I had. He also captured our vision perfectly in photos that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. I would choose David Champagne photography again a million times over, I promise you will not be disappointed!

    As the daughter of a professional photographer, we had very high expectations for wedding photography and relied heavily on recommendations from my father when selecting a wedding photographer. When he recommended we book David, we had no doubts after viewing his incredibly unique photography. David was always available if we had questions, helped us develop our event timeline, and gave us items to work on to ensure we maximized our schedule on the day-of. David arrived on-time and took the most breathtaking photographs of my husband and I on our wedding day. He captured stunning colors and emotions and really captured the day perfectly like a story book. Our wedding photos were ready within 2 weeks of our wedding day! The standard is 1-2 months! We HIGHLY recommend David. He is truly an artist and has the ability to shoot the most amazing moments in truly creative ways.
