    Wonderful photographer!

    David was absolutely wonderful to work with, we are so fortunate that we chose him as our wedding photographer! We had an engagement session with him so we knew our photos would be amazing, but our wedding pictures exceeded our expectations and are absolutely perfect! David and his assistant Bryan were so polite, friendly, and professional, they truly felt like family. He was able to capture all of the special moments and more from our wedding day! We can't say enough good things and are so incredibly grateful that we will have wonderful memories to cherish forever. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further! Thank you again David and Bryan!

    Flawless photos and easy to work with!

    Highly recommend this vendor. What impressed me the most is how they blended in. They weren't obtrusive or in the way at all, yet they caught every moment! They we're easy going and to the point. I couldn't have asked for a better team to capture my day!

    David Kidwell Photography did an incredible job at our wedding. Super organized, creative shots, professional yet relaxed demeanor. They made us comfortable and helped us feel great about ourselves.

    David was a great communicator, accommodated our crazy last minute requests, and made sure we got all of the different portraits and pictures we wanted. He remained flexible throughout the day and evening as plans were forced to change, and ensured we have memories that will last a lifetime.

    Most importantly, perhaps, the pictures came out great! It was a true pleasure to work with them.

    Totally Amazing!

    David and his assistant we both amazing! And our pictures are even more amazing! They both arrived early on our wedding day and were total professionals. Every time we turned around there they were- taking more pictures than we had imagined! Our families love both of them and everybody at the wedding seemed very comfortable with them. We highly recommend David!

    David and his assistant were incredible on my wedding day! They were both so sweet and I genuinely enjoyed being around them on the big day! David respected our space and time, but still produced stunning pictures that we will cherish forever. His passion for photography and kind nature are all you could really ask for!

    In one word, David was GREAT! We had him as our photographer for our wedding at Stroudsmoor in November. We live out of town and David made himself available to meet us when we were in town and he was very responsive over email and phone calls. It rained on our wedding day and David still made sure we got the pictures we wanted. He made us feel as ease and all the pictures we got from him we’re winderful!!

    David and his assistant were so helpful and instrumental in capturing all the moments of our wedding. Our pictures were beautiful and really captured moments of the wedding so we felt like we were in every moment.

    David did a great job of understanding what we wanted and even added ideas that we hadn't thought about.

    I can't say enough great things about David, if you book him, you wont go wrong!

    David Kidwell is a very kind, warm hearted photography who is passionate about his job. He listens, works very hard and makes all feel comfortable. If you have a very big bridal party, be prepared with lists of photos and he works fast and hard to get all requested photos.

    Best Pictures Ever!

    David Kidwell was very polite and a fabulous photographer. He was very friendly from the start and gave us straightforward information. He made our wedding day all about us and worked as hard as possible to get all of our needs met— which he succeeded in doing! I would highly recommend David as your photographer, you won't regret it!!

    Creative, close attention to detail, patient!

    David is a great guy and a fabulous photographer. He is easy to work with and had so many great ideas for picture perfect shots.
    He was an incredibly hard worker and he and his assistant kept up with everyone dancing their tails off at the wedding reception!
    We would highly recommend and use again!

    David did a fantastic job at our wedding! All our photos are excellent, from the posed group photos to the candids at the reception. I was especially impressed at how he was there every time at the reception when there was a moment I wanted to capture! We'll always treasure the many amazing photos, and especially the wonderful album he put together for us.

    David was awesome to work with. We met him at the Stroudsmoor Country Inn wedding show. His prices were pretty amazing, which is the first reason we went with him. I also liked how he incorporated 2 extra albums; my mother and MIL loved them as gifts!

    My husband and I were not into engagement photos; we just are not the type of people to take "staged" pictures I guess? To compensate, David came and captured moments of our rehearsal dinner, which was so nice because we got more photos with our bridal party, parents and grand parents, which in my mind is more meaningful than a bunch of pictures of just us .

    Anyway... the photos came out amazing and the albums were great quality. We also got the photobooth... my family is a bit crazy, so there were some x rated photos that made the book hysterical and the extra copies for the guests to take home added to the fun.

    David is great to work with!! He captured all the details of the wedding that we overlooked because of how fast the night went. He works with your schedule and his prices were extremely reasonable, the best we found.

    My husband and I were married last June and David Kidwell was our photographer. David was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process! From the booking, through the planning and preparation, and finally to capturing our big day, he was wonderful. He answered any and all questions I had and we communicated throughout the entire planning process, so he knew exactly what we wanted. He had the most reasonable prices out of all the photographers that we looked into, and his package offered us the most for our money. We are thrilled that we chose David as our photographer. Our pictures turned out beautiful and I am so happy that we have these photos to look back on our special day for years to come! We could not wait to share our beautiful album with family and friends, all thanks to David!

    As soon as we met David, we knew we wanted him to be our wedding photographer! He was extremely easy to work with and made planning out our picture times so easy. The final photos were amazing! He captured our wedding day beautifully and our album is absolutely gorgeous! We love looking back at all of pictures and are so glad that we chose David to capture one of the best days of our lives!

    My husband and I had a flawless experience with David. His laid back personality meshed perfectly with my wedding party and the result was a perfect day with amazing photos. David is very creative and you can tell he is passionate about his work. I wasn't sure what photos I wanted and David helped come up with some great ideas. I cannot say enough good things. You get a lot of quality work for your money, and a pleasurable experience. Thanks David!!

    David was such a pleasure to have at our wedding. He was attentive, organized, kept a great flow to things, and was very good at keeping a dysfunctional family in check, which was a major stress reliever on the bride. Many guests commented that he worked his butt off until the very end of the evening and took note of his professionalism and fun personality. Very happy to have him not only as our photographer but as a guest at our wedding.

    We could not have been happier with David's work. The pictures are beyond gorgeous! We had/are having such a hard time choosing for our books and prints. David is very easy to work with and welcomes any ideas for shots that you might have. He truly tries his best to accommodate all of your wishes and is extremely thorough in discussing your tastes, what's important to you, what shots are must haves, etc. He showed up on time and was by our sides the entire day. He captured every aspect of the day perfectly and we only have positive things to say about his work. We very highly recommend him.

    David was amazing. He was affordable, accommodating, made the whole process very easy for us and was super quick to send us our pictures on the CD. Literally 3 weeks after we got married. It was amazing. We got married in May and we got our album and prints that were included in our package last week. He always put my mind at ease and it poured down raining and was cold the entire day and we still got wonderful pictures. Highly Reccommend him!

    Couldn't have asked for a better experience than the one that we had with David. David did our engagement photos and was there on our wedding day to capture all of the special moments and he did not miss a beat. David was an absolute pleasure to work with - he is fun, creative, and talented. Thanks for all of the hard work and beautiful pictures, David!

    David did both our engagement and wedding photos for our wedding on September 6th 2015. We could not have asked for a better photographer! He was very professional yet was fun and flexible to work with. We knew from the moment we first met with him at a restaurant in Jim Thorpe that he was the photographer that we wanted/needed! He really went above and beyond with us hiking a waterfall, walking on railroad tracks, then taking night photos throughout historic Jim Thorpe for our engagement session. We had such a fun time and our pictures reflect our personality as a couple so well! Our initial engagement photo date was rained out and he was able to reschedule us quickly! Both our engagement and wedding photos were edited and back to us within 3 weeks of each occasion! He gave great attention to detail at the wedding and ensured that he took every photo we asked him to take. He also made sure to check in with us at the end of the night to see if there were any other moments we wanted him to capture before he left (10 hours of coverage!) Everyone in the bridal party (Including us of course) loved him and he had alot of fun ideas to do with the group shots! He was very open to our suggestions which we loved! In addition, he worked great with the other vendors (videographer and DJ) and made sure to stay in the background and not interrupt the event to attain his awesome photos. He also provided us with ALOT of photos, which gave us the opportunity to choose the photos we liked best rather than the ones he assumed we would like best. We would HIGHLY recommend David Kidwell to all our family and friends looking for a great photographer who is alot of fun to work with and can produce high quality results.

    David was absolutely wonderful to work with! He customized our package to give us exactly what we were looking for. He did a great job on our engagement photos and a wonderful job capturing our wedding day. He was a pleasure to work with and always got back to us in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend David to other couple planning their wedding!

    We are so happy we decided to go with David for our wedding photographer! We booked him almost a year in advance and also did our engagement photos with him. That helped us all to get to know each other before the wedding. The day of the wedding he came a little early to set up the photo booth (which was a huge hit that night!), and scoped out where we could take pictures. He was great before the wedding making sure I didn't bump into my fiancé or have any of the guests see me. He got amazing shots without being in the way during the ceremony. David was up for taking any shots we wanted, and was always aware of timing. We made it to the top of the mountain at our venue, took amazing shots, and made the bumpy ride back down with plenty of time before our entrance into the reception. During the reception, he didn't miss a moment! Again, he got great shots but was never in the way. His candid shots are personally some of my favorites. He really captured the day without having to pose anyone. We got our pictures back quickly after the wedding and are still blown away by them. I would, without a doubt, recommend David for your wedding photographer!

    I would highly recommend Dave Kidwell for photography especially for a wedding. He was very enjoyable to work with and my wedding guests also mentioned how great he was! He captures every special moment and you get to focus on just having fun on your most important day!
