    Lisa was great! She and her assistant were able to capture our wedding day so wonderfully! They easily positioned us for photos that looked relaxed and genuine. They really know how to efficiently get the best photos especially when the timeline of the wedding itself was unforgiving. We highly recommend Lisa! You will get awesome photos you will cherish forever!! Thanks again Lisa!!!

    Lisa is Amazing! She did our engagement photos, bridal portraits , and wedding day photos. I love how she directs you when getting the right light or angle, it makes the session more relaxed. My wedding was a vintage theme she captured the look and style that I wanted for the pictures. She offers multiple packages , which was great. I really loved working with Lisa , she is so upbeat, positive , and caring. She makes you feel like family! She wants you to enjoy the photo session, feel comfortable and have fun. Plus her pictures turn out amazing! I would recommend Lisa to everyone, not just for weddings but any occasion that someone may need a wonderful photographer.

    Lisa is amazing. When we decided to start planning a wedding we didn't even check into another photographer because of the quality of work we had seen previously. She will make everything look stunning! She is the totally package. She does beautiful work and she is a beautiful person that you will love to have around during your wedding. after booking Lisa I didn't give another worry about the photos because I knew she would take care of it. I couldn't be happier. After your wedding the only thing you have left is the photos and it is important that you get the best.

    Lisa was simply amazing!! She came to our home to do photos before the wedding. She immediately put us at ease and stepped us through the poses and positions. She was so much fun to work with the entire event. Prior to the event she was timely in providing pricing and photo location options, etc. We are so happy we entrusted her to capture these very special moments that we will have forever!!!

    If there were a way to rate you 100 in every category, I would! I could not imagine having another photographer for our wedding day. You are so amazing inside and out, and it reflects in every single photo you take! Thank you for giving us memories to last an entire lifetime!

    Lisa Carpenter Photography's reply:

    Thank you so very much!! You both are very special to me and I am beyond thrilled that I could be a part of documenting such an important day in your lives.

    I don't even know where to start! Lisa was the best decision I made when it came to planning my wedding!

    At first I had another photographer lined up. She was a family friend and we chose her to help save on costs. She started off by doing our Engagement session. After the session, my husband and I walked away feeling extremely unsure of her. She didn't direct us at all. She seemed to know how to use a nice camera but that was about the extent of her photography skills. I decided that I needed to spend a little bit more to get the professionalism and quality that I wanted out of a photographer.

    I found Lisa by a simple Google search. At the time, I was just looking for ideas of pictures to give to our current photographer to help guide her into what we wanted. I then noticed that all of the pictures I was saving were all from Lisa's website! So I decided to give her a call and see what kind of prices/packages she offered. She was a delight to talk to! She helped me out in my situation and I couldn't refuse her offer!

    She did my bridal photos and my wedding. The Bridal photo shoot was so extremely fun! She had awesome ideas and directed me into every pose! She didn't waste time and got some amazing shots! Lisa doesn't mind getting dirty to get the perfect shot!

    The day of the wedding, she was a huge stress relief! She calmed me down and was extremely comforting. She kept everyone organized and took every photo in a timely manner. She kept everyone laughing and super engaged in each photo shoot! Every photo she took was stunning! She definitely bends over backwards for brides to make their day perfect!

    I can't wait to work with Lisa again and my husband and I are so glad we decided to go with her! She is truly a blessing!

    If you are looking for a photographer, look no further!

    We went back and forth for a while with what we wanted to budget for a photographer, when we finally realized that it is 100% worth it to make that investment. The pictures that are taken at your wedding are the only thing that you will have left after that incredible day flies by and that is something you don't want to overlook. Years later, you'll be able to pull out your album and relive your wedding day.

    In saying that, we couldn't have chosen a better photographer than Lisa. She was by far worth every penny and more. From day one, she provided us with ease of mind and advice. The engagement session made for an exciting and worthwhile afternoon and Lisa was able to get a feel for how my husband and I complemented eachother prior to shooting us on the actual wedding day.

    Although the wedding day seemed to only last for a matter of seconds, I knew Lisa was on top of capturing each and every moment. That seriously helped me calm down! She also provided advice that we absolutely needed during our wedding frenzy.

    We were able to view our photos two weeks after the wedding! From speaking with friends, I have heard of some photographers taking months to provide the wedding pictures. This is not the case with Lisa. She has incredible work ethic, passion for what she does, an eye for details, and delivers quality that you just can't get anywhere else. I highly recommend Lisa to any bride and groom currently planning their wedding. You won't regret it at all! Trust me. :)

    Lisa Carpenter is the BEST! Everyone who has seen our pictures swear that they were ripped from the pages of a Vogue magazine. Her work is incredibly stylistic, while at the same time maintaining that classic feel that you want for your wedding photos. Her passion and knowledge really comes through in the images and I couldn't be happier with our wedding photos.

    Working with Lisa was actually one of my favorite parts of the whole wedding process. All of the planning and logistics can be pretty stressful, but Lisa has the best demeanor when working- she actually calmed me before my walk down the aisle and that is priceless. Working with Lisa was also a great value for our money too!

    My mother is a wedding planner, and she could not stop bragging on Lisa. She knew where to be, was cognizant of timelines, and everything just ran so smoothly because of that. She was very impressed by Lisa's professionalism and said that out of all the photographers that she was worked with (a TON) that Lisa is the absolute best.

    When we decide to start a family, Lisa is going to be our official photographer to capture all of those moments as well :)

    I can’t say enough good things about Lisa. As soon as my husband and I met Lisa, we fell in love with not only her pictures but her personality and her style. You can just tell she loves what she does and cares about making your wedding a beautiful day! The comments from our families and friends have been shared that she was amazing with her work! She has got unbelievable talent, we couldn’t be happier with all of our pictures from our engagement and wedding day. She was a great addition to our special day!

    Lisa is AMAZING! She was an intricate part of my Wedding day! I had an outside wedding on a very humid day in July and despite the heat Lisa did amazing and made sure to capture everyone looking their best in the photos. It is my pet-peeve to attend a wedding and wait two hours on the Bride and Groom to arrive, so I stressed this to Lisa. I wanted a maximum thirty minutes of photos after the wedding. All my friends, family, and even the other vendors did not think this would be possible and expected us to arrive an hour or so after the ceremony. Welp, Lisa got ALLLLL the pictures we wanted and more within the thirty minute time frame. This is the perk of hiring a GREAT photographer that knows what she is doing! You get just as many photos of amazing quality for a much shorter amount of time. Now if you are the bride that wants to model for two hours after the ceremony this is okay as well. Lisa will take as long or as little time as you want with post-wedding pictures. Even I was shocked when she sent me the 1,061 total photos from the wedding! She even came and got my husband and I during the reception (after she checked the schedule to make sure nothing was coming up) and she took us to specific spots she had scoped out. We got some AMAZING pictures within ten minutes, and returned to the reception so quickly the guests didn’t even realize we had left. When my family and I look back on all the money spent for the wedding we all agree booking Lisa as our photographer was by far the best money spent! When the wedding is all said and done, the ice sculptures are melted, the food and drinks are all consumed, all your guests have returned home, all that is left are the AMAZING pictures from the Wedding day! We have the pictures to remember each and every detail of our special day! I love how Lisa even got pictures of many of our guests. There were some guests I saw in the pictures and didn’t even have a chance to speak to because of the amount of people, but thanks to Lisa we have pictures of all the guests having a GREAT time! I consider Lisa more than a photographer. For example, while at my bridal session Lisa not only helped me into my dress, but then the venue had closed before we finished the pictures outside. So, Lisa cranked her SUV up and let me hop in and change out of my dress. Even on my wedding day she helped show my bridesmaids how my dress was supposed to be tied up, while snapping some amazing pictures of the moment getting into my dress. Also, while taking pictures outside after the ceremony guests were coming out into the courtyard, which was not supposed to happen until after the bridal party entered the reception. Lisa saw me getting upset and trying to get the wedding coordinators attention to keep people inside, so Lisa didn’t think twice about voluntarily walking over and handling the situation. She made sure ANYTHING and EVERYTHING my husband and I needed was MORE than taken care of! I sincerely feel like my wedding would not have gone as smoothly and literally been picture perfect had we not had Lisa there! I’ve had other brides even tell me they wish they could get married all over again just to have Lisa as their photographer. Several of my bridesmaids even commented on how Lisa just somehow gets the best angles and makes EVERYONE look amazing in the pictures. My bridal portraits were even featured on a wedding blog, because someone came across them on Lisa’s blog. EVERYONE has commented on how breathtaking the photos of my wedding are and I genuinely believe it’s not the people in the pictures, my husband and I, instead I believe it’s the photographer that captured the amazing photos that made them so stunning. My advice to every bride is to splurge on your wedding day, but if you splurge on anything I would make booking an amazing photographer the number one priority. I can guarantee if you are lucky enough to book Lisa as your photographer you will not have seen yourself ever looking any better than in the photos from your wedding day!

    Lisa Carpenter Photography's reply:

    Alicia, all I can say is WOW and thank you from the bottom of my heart. I know it took some time and thought to write such a great and detailed review. This helps other brides looking for photographers and I appreciate you doing the review.
    Please let me know if there is anything else you need from me. All the best to you and Derrick on your new ventures. Many exciting things lie ahead for you both.
    :)

    Lisa Carpenter is a wonderful photographer! I would recommend her to everyone! She did a fantastic job of capturing every single detail on our wedding day, and she also did an amazing job on our engagement sessions! She has a way of making pictures look elegant and classy, but also fun and creative. Lisa always went out of her way to meet any expectations that we had, and also got our photos back in a timely manner. She is such an enthusiastic person and a joy to work with! Her passion for photography is clearly reflected in her work.

    Lisa Carpenter Photography's reply:

    After two engagement sessions, a bridal session and the wedding day, I felt like I had gained a couple of new friends. You and Brandon are such a happy couple with contagious smiles and laughs. It was truly a pleasure Melissa and I hope to see you in the future :)

    My husband was the one who found Lisa...and what an amazing job. She was wonderful to work with and it was so nice to not have to stress about any of the photography details. She took care of everything and went above and beyond. Her prices are very reasonable and you will not be disappointed.

    Lisa Carpenter is not only one of the best photographers that I know, she has become a very dear friend of our family! Her creativity is priceless and the photos that she took at our daughter's wedding will be treasured for the rest of our lives! I truly cannot recommend her enough! I would give her 10 stars if I could :) Dana Van Gieson

    Lisa Carpenter Photography's reply:

    I think the best part out of all of this is that I did gain new friends. Dana, your family is wonderful and I had the most amazing time throughout the whole process. Chris & Katie are a wonderful couple and I know they will have much happiness in their future. Thank you again for everything!

    Lisa captured every moment of our wedding with beautiful and magical photos. She brought the day to life and memorialized each moment. When I saw the photos I couldn't get through them without laughing, crying and immediately calling her to thank her for her phenomenal work!!! She is amazingly talented and I would have missed out on photos to cherish for a lifetime if she had not been there- no one could have done it better!!! My friends and family keep commenting with amazement about how she was able to capture the feelings, the moment and the beauty of the day! I should mention that not only was the final product beyond my hopes and expectations, but working with Lisa was a wonderful experience. She is a wonderful person and she brought support and calm to my wedding day. I can't imagine not having had her there with me on my wedding day!!

    Lisa Carpenter Photography was an amazing asset to our special day. She captured moments that were truly unforgettable and had great ideas to set up some shots. She let us have our day without getting in the way and demanding us to do something over - she was good enough to catch it all on the first try! Our wedding day is something very dear to our hearts and she has helped us remember it is a very classic stylish way. She was fun to work with and she knew what she was doing. Thank you Lisa for making our wedding day truly truly amazing!

    Lisa Carpenter Photography's reply:

    My goodness where does the time go? I am thrilled to see a review from you Julie. It means so very much. I have your album as one of my samples and think of you both often. I hope all is well and please let me know if you are looking for photography in the future.
    All the best and again, thank you.

    every picture says it all, the love, the laughter and "the beautiful bride". but seriously, when my friends and family see my pictures they can't believe how wonderful they turned out. our picture album is spectacular and lisa was so patient with me, letting me design the album just to my liking, with her special touch of course. you will not be disappointed by choosing lisa for your wedding or other events. i am definitely a satisfied bride!

    We used Lisa for our engagement session and for our wedding day. She was prompt, professional, enthusiastic, and most importantly was able to guide us in a direction which resulted in beautiful pictures that captured our relationship perfectly and didn't look staged. She listened to what we wanted and worked from those guidelines. She presented our photos within the timeframe promised and kept us up to date on her progress. I would highly recommend Lisa Carpenter!
