Highly recommend! Brad did a wonderful job photographing our special day. He was flexible with the whims of the event, staged our formal pictures well, and caught great candid moments. The end result was a huge album of flattering and heartwarming pictures; I'm having trouble picking which ones to print! He event took the time to showcase some special moments in black and white. -

Brad and his sister were absolutely amazing! I won’t lie there was some hesitation about hiring a male photographer only because I was thinking about the get ready shots. All worries went straight out the window once Brad hit the scene! He was super punctual, professional and instantly made me feel super comfortable he was so easy going and when I threw a wrench in there (a few extra group photos than expected) he rolled with it allowing me to lead the way on our big day! They both were super in tune with the venue we selected so they knew all of the great places to get a good shot at the right times! My wedding experience would not have been the same without Brad and his sister there supporting and guiding us through an amazing shoot! Our pictures are absolutely stunning!!!! God as truly gifted these two and we are forever grateful for you both. Would book again in a heartbeat! One last thing that was super important to me.. they got so many photos of the venue and decor! This was something I appreciated sooo much as a bride day of the wedding is pretty hectic so you’re not focused on the years work you put in day and night to bring this to life but they captured everything for me 💕 -

Brad and his team were absolutely wonderful to work with! Photography was one of the most important vendor choices for me, and I’m so glad that we picked Hyde Park. Brad had a calming presence from the moment he arrived on our wedding day- he is a clear professional who knows what he’s doing, he’s easy and fun to work with, and he even gave us a few tips to use during the ceremony to make sure we got some great shots there. We were so excited when we got our wedding photos back- they were exactly what we were hoping for, and they included really great candid photos of our guests (these ended up being some of my favorite photos from the day). I can’t stop looking through our photos- I am so glad we went with Hyde Park! -

Calm, Professional, and Perfect!
I hired Hyde Park Photography for my engagement photos, wedding photos, and wedding day videography. When I first got engaged, I started looking for all of my vendors, as you can imagine, photography was one of the most important since this person would be capturing the entire event and give me lasting memories for me to view over and over. I interviewed dozens and dozens of photographers before deciding on Brad at Hyde Park Photography. When I spoke to Brad for the first time, he explained to me his preferred style, how he likes to shoot, what he needs from me, and what I can expect from him. His overall personality and demeanor were so calming, confident, and professional that I just knew that he would be exactly what I needed on the day of my wedding.
Engagement photos, Brad did a wonderful job and I absolutely loved our location that Brad suggested and how everything turned out. My husband didn’t have much experience posing and Brad did a great job guiding him along the way. When he saw that his smile was looking a little tired, he made sure to let us relax and pose again to make sure we had great smiles and lots of options to pick from. We loved how they all turned out.
Wedding photos were also great, we worked on the timeline, and how to get in all the photos we knew we wanted, and Brad provided a recommend list that we were able to update so he had the list for the day of the wedding. Day of was absolutely great, again he is calming, and professional personality put me at ease and I knew I could totally trust him. He captured every element of our day and we loved all of it!!!
Videography, Brads team was amazing, photos and video all worked well together. I am so happy I hired him for both! My husband and I watch it all the time.
We order some prints and well as an album as well! I can’t say enough good things! Just know Brad is calm and professional and his eye for photography is spot on! I highly recommend using him for your special day!!

Brad is the BEST!
Of course you pick a photographer based on the quality of the photos and the price BUT Brad is also the coolest, nicest and most flexible person ever! I needed that energy so much on my wedding day (even before the pandemic hit) and he turned out to be such a joy to work with the whole way through. Moreover, the pictures we got back were breathtaking! He totally captured the joy of the day and every detail I wanted to remember. I will treasure these photos for eternity! Thank you so much Brad and team!! -

No one better in the biz than Brad from Hyde Park Photography! He was quick with responses, courteous of our wishes, flexible, and had the best demeanor on our big day! The photographs turned out absolutely beautiful and we could not be more thankful we chose Brad. He has such an easy going manner about him and just really made us feel comfortable for our engagement shoot and then again for our wedding reception. He's a great person and a great photographer. Highly recommend Brad! -

Exceptional Photographer, Wonderful Person
My husband, Joss, and I were so incredibly fortunate to have Brad from Hyde Park Photography be the photographer for our wedding. We met at our venue’s open house, and I could tell from our first moments chatting that Brad was a thorough professional; however, even having done so many weddings, he wanted to make it extremely special for us. Wedding planning can be a bit of an organizational mess, but Brad’s method of communication was always calm and helpful, and it made Joss and I excited for our big day.
We were really looking for someone who could make us feel comfortable the day of, especially because we are a same-sex couple, and we wanted a photographer who would share in one of the most romantic moments of our lives. Brad was just fantastic: he organized the group photos, preselected all the great shots at our venue, and he made those super important moments after the ceremony feel full of love and joy rather than stress. We knew we were in good hands when he told us to walk away for a moment, take our drinks, and just savor this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Joss and I could be all smiles because Brad and his team took care of everything.
The wedding photos were extraordinary. Brad sent us a wonderful reel as a preview for us to share with our families, and when everything was ready, the online portal made it incredibly easy to download, order, or print. His style is impeccable: we were surprised at how many different moments and experiences he was able to capture, from the table settings before the ceremony, to the vow exchange, to the family photos, to the crazy--and perhaps a little fuzzy--dancing at the end of the night.
Brad made our wonderful day even more so with his professionalism, kindness, empathy, and forethought. Any other couple would be lucky to have him be the photographer at their wedding!

Brad was an integral part of my wedding day and overall experience! He and his team were extremely professional and provided an exceptional service. His calming demeanor allowed my husband and I to relax and enjoy the time together. He wrangled the party and the families and swiftly moved through those necessary photos! They were able to capture so many candid and beautiful moments that we will be able to look back on and remember forever! The website to order photos on had excellent options for all different styles and reasonably priced. I also loved that we were able to download all of the photos digitally for our saving! I can not recommend them enough!! -

Adam G. Sent on 02/09/2020Hyde Park Photography knocked it out of the Park!
In November 2019, we decided to contract Hyde Park Photography to be our wedding photographer/videographer. It was one of the best decisions we made about our wedding day, and we would highly recommend Brad’s services to anyone looking to commemorate a wedding or an event in general.
Professionalism: Brad is clearly a veteran photographer, and knows exactly what he needs to do to get a shot. Some photographers will just stand there and make you tell them every shot you want to take, but Brad knows his venues and his trade inside and out - just relax and let him direct you where to go. No hassle, stress-free, and the results will be absolutely amazing!
Price: Brad is not a bargain-bin photographer, and his rates reflect that. However, given the quality of the finished product, and the fact that you get Brad himself and 1-2 additional photographers/videographers, the price is well worth the value. Furthermore, when you think about the lifetime of your wedding purchases, the pictures and videos are the things that will outlast the clothes, the decorations, the food, and the venue. Don’t skimp out!
Access: Brad makes his photos available through a digital portal. You can send download links for free, and the portal also has options for buying prints large and small. The prices on the portal are also not bargain-bin, so if you’re looking for something to put in your wallet you should feel free to print off your free downloads. But, the portal has the highest resolution photos, so if you want a big portrait make sure to go through the official service!
In summary, this man doesn’t just capture beauty - he creates it through his skillful framing, composition, and editing technique. We could not be happier with our decision to choose him as our wedding photographer and look forward to many many long years of commemorating our relationship with his photography.

Working with Brad was an absolute dream. He captured every important moment from our wedding and made each look like magic. I could not believe how beautiful all of the photos were and I am still speechless (and get teary eyed) when I look at them today remembering how wonderful it all was. He fit in perfectly with our families and managed to help the day go incredibly smoothly. Absolutely book him. -

Brad was such an incredible photographer to work with! Choosing a photographer was very important to us--we wanted someone who we would feel comfortable around, knew what they were doing, and really capture us and our family in a way that was true to us. Brad was exactly that! My husband and I have very limited experience in front of a professional camera, and he kept us super relaxed and gave us direction when we needed it! As a plus, he worked on a really quick turnaround which was amazing because we were obviously dying to see how everything came out! We're going to cherish these photos for years and years to come! -

His attention to detail, wedding knowledge/expertise, and kind personality made everything so easy. What a blessing it was to work with Brad, while he captured amazing photos of our special day. Brad deserves more than a 5⭐️ rating!! -
