    Wedding Photographer - Your search stops here

    My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Neal Kreuser Photography for our recent wedding, and we could not be more satisfied with the way he handled every aspect of the photography. We felt a connection with Neal almost right away, during our initial consultation. We had lots of questions, but never felt rushed or pressured.

    One of Neal’s biggest strengths (apart from his skill with the camera) is his down to earth personality. In a different context, this would be a guy who you would want to have a beer with. At the same time, he exudes professionalism and confidence in his work.
    He knows his stuff, especially concerning lighting. He knows how to capture the sunset in a way that makes the picture pop and sparkle. It’s just on another level.

    One of the things that really sets Neal apart is his willingness to do *whatever it takes* to get the perfect shot. There were at least two occasions where Neal almost killed himself - literally - because he was so focused on getting that angle. During our engagement photos, it was so hot Neal burned a hole through his jeans while lying on the asphalt for a good ground-up shot, but he never complained. Shortly afterwards, summer monsoons rolled in bringing torrential rain. This almost jeopardized the 2nd half of the shoot but Neal was willing to keep going anyway, taking possibly the best shots of the day.

    Personality-wise, Neal is a joker. We enjoyed him being silly in order to get people to smile. His jokes made us laugh, even when they were blatantly (and intentionally) corny. If you are looking for someone who is very formal and proper, there is nothing wrong with that, but just know that’s not Neal’s natural state.

    As for communication, Neal was always prompt to respond to any questions or concerns. Occasionally, there was a small delay, but it was never a problem. We couldn’t expect him to be answering texts while he is in the middle of a shoot or on his day(s) off. It did not ever take repeated texts or calls to get a question answered - he would always reply. Just don’t expect instantaneous replies every time. To be clear, the communication was excellent overall.

    Neal was also extremely flexible and adaptable to our wants and needs. If we wanted to do an extra location for the engagement photos, he was cool with it. If we needed to change a date or time, he was cool with it. We never got the impression that he was feeling put out or annoyed. He’s really good at going with the flow.

    We also received our photos extremely quickly, within a week or two at the most. It is possible to view your photos online, and then select which ones you’d like to have professionally retouched.

    Finally, value for the money. You can’t do better. There is simply no way. Neal told us he wants his services to be affordable for the average guy, not just the rich. Could he charge more? Honestly, we think he could and it would be justified. But that goes against some of his core beliefs, which to us apart from saving money, also impressed us in terms of character. You really get a lot for your money, and there is literally no sacrifice for the savings. 5 stars here.

    So, overall - talk to Neal and at least put him on your short list for photographers for your event. We had several people ask who our photographer was so they could see if he was available for their special occasions. We loved working with Neal and he made it fun the entire time. Thank you Neal!

    A Photo Journalistic Dream!

    I first came across Neal's work when I was looking at wedding venues. The Stillwell House had a coffee table book showcasing his work. I knew right away I wanted Neal to be our photographer. I am a HUGE fan of the photo journalistic style (think National Geographic) because it is detailed and extremely difficult to master.

    Neal was the first vendor that I booked!

    Neal was exceptionally professional and fun to work with! He got along fantastically with my husband and I, our vendors, and our guests. Sometimes you hear horror stories of photographers and videographers not getting along, but this was definitely not the case- it was as if the three of them were college buddies and were working on a project together, and Neal worked SO HARD on getting the right angles for us. A good chunk of our guests commented how they had fun with Neal, or noticed him having a good time as he was taking photos. Now that's being multi-talented!

    One of the things my husband and I are most grateful for is that Neal was flexible with us in terms of our photography package- We selected one of his most popular packages, and then paid for an hourly rate.

    My husband and I recently got our photos back to make our selections, and we went through happy tears and laughter looking at them.

    If you want a photographer that is truly exceptional, and can make you re-experience the emotions of your wedding day, freezing them perfectly in time, don't look any further!

    We hired Neal for our Tucson LDS temple pictures and at the venue later the same day at La Mariposa. He was great with our family, and he took great candid pictures as well.

    Amazing work!

    When we received the photos, we were blown away by the level of craftsmanship and artistry. Each image was a work of art, evoking the joy and tenderness we experienced during those precious moments Neal managed to encapsulate the emotions and create timeless memories that we will cherish forever.

    Only Use Neal Kreuser!!!

    Neal helped make our wedding as great as it was. His attitude and professionalism are fantastic! When he first arrived in the room where the groom, father, and groomsmen were, he helped the process. Since no one in the room had experience with boutonnieres before he spoke up and said he could put on our boutonnieres on for us. He had us pose, in what felt like hilarious poses, for pictures and they are beautiful. The care and flexibility that he has is amazing. I will forever refer him to people in the future.

    Neal is the best photographer!

    My new wife and I hired Neal as our wedding photographer, and I couldn’t be more pleased with how everything turned out! He did an amazing job capturing every memorable moment from our big day, and was not afraid to get down in the dirt or wet grass to do so. If you’re considering hiring Neal, do yourself a favor and get him scheduled for your event before it’s too late!

    Absolutely Amazing

    I am so happy with my choice to book Neal! Not only was he super affordable (he could probably charge more for his skill level) but his personality and humor had us laughing the whole time. He made everyone feel comfortable and at ease. He is definitely one of the highlights of the night!

    December Wedding

    My spouse and I found Neal after combing through the Knot website and really liked his overall vibe and style of photography. Neal photographed our wedding in December, and I can’t say enough great things about him as a person and about his work as a professional. Neal is super laid back and seems like someone who adapts well to any situation. Neal is likeable and struck me as being very down-to-earth with a great sense of humor. As an overwhelmed bride, I appreciated his ability to jump in, take charge and capture truly beautiful, important moments during the ceremony and reception. I felt like I could trust Neal’s judgment and ability, which really helped with my own stress level on the “big day.” Neal is talented and creative; his work is truly unique and his abilities as a photographer are impressive. As a couple, we are so glad to have had Neal photograph our wedding and would HIGHLY recommend him to any bride and groom. Neal is without a doubt, a 10/10.

    Wedding Photography

    A great photographer! The pictures came out as a dream! He was very good at getting people to line up for pictures and using the small amount of golden hour time to get many great shots.

    Top tier photographer services!!!

    Neal is simply and absolutely the best photographer around! If you are looking for a wedding photographer for your special day, look no further. No other photographer can compare to the service, quality and professionalism that Neal offers in all of his work. Neal's images are one of a kind as I am sure you can already tell by just looking at his portfolio in comparison to others. We also picked the package that came with two photographers and his partner did an amazing job as well. You will not be disappointed! All of our guests were amazed on how quick they were able to upload a slideshow of the ceremony pictures during cocktail hour as well as the reception. Our guests mentioned that they enjoyed Neal and his partner's personality as they made everyone feel very welcoming and fit right into the crowd. They also mentioned that they have never seen this done before at other weddings so it definitely stood out! We will definitely be hiring Neal again in future events. He will definitely catch the perfect images for your wedding for you and your spouse to enjoy for the many years to come!

    Hire Neal - He’s the Best!

    Neal is the best photographer for weddings. He doesn’t waste time trying to take the perfect shot; he KNOWS how to get the perfect shot and then moves on to the next series of perfect shots so you have TONS of perfect shots instead of just one or two (or none) like you might get from other photographers. The pictures are incredible, even the unedited ones! We get compliments all the time on how amazing our wedding photographer was when people see the pictures. Thank you again, Neal!

    Neal was amazing to work with! We asked him to take photos during our intimate COVID ceremony, and he did an incredible job capturing the moment. I would absolutely work with Neal again. He got us photos to review the day after our wedding, and working with us to accommodate our budget and time frame.

    So talented

    Neal is amazing! I can not say enough good things about him. Neal was so patient and accommodating with us, as we had to postpone our first wedding and then change venues. Neal is so easy to work with. Both myself and my husband hate to take pictures but Neal found a way to make it fun and enjoyable for us. We love how our pictures turned out. We can not thank Neal enough for all he has done for us. Highly recommend Neal and would totally use him again. Thank you Neal!

    Professional, Creative, Charismatic -- We HIGHLY recommend Neal!!

    Neal is PHENOMENAL. Our March 2020 wedding was scaled way back due to COVID, which meant working with all the vendors on last minute changes. Neal was professional, responsive, and reassuring from day one -- and through our last-minute stress. Rest assured, he has the experience necessary to help you figure out how to capture joy even if your celebration is hampered by this pandemic. Leading up to the wedding and on the day itself, Neal was professional, punctual, and charismatic! Eight months later as my mom flips through our wedding photo book, she *always* comments on how great our photographer was. She's right. You will not regret hiring Neal Kreuser.

    Just what we needed!

    I'm so lucky to have found a photographer like Neal. His work is beyond beautiful and unique and his personality is just amazing. He definitely knows what to do and guides you through to make sure he meets your needs. We had him to cover our wedding for 7 hrs and WOW this guy is absolutely creative! We never felt worried nor doubt him. His work speaks for itself. He works with multiple cameras to make sure he captures the best moments and oh man he didn't miss any single details. He had our pictures ready in less than 2 weeks and we totally loved them. He has so much experience which projects on what he does and just comes out naturally. I can't believe how comfortable we felt with him. We recommend him 100%. He is great to communicate with and he is very professional. He is very punctual and he's got a great sense of humor. We couldn't have asked for more. If there was 10 stars we could mark for his work he would definitely get them from us! Thank you so much Neal you are absolutely AMAZING!

    Pure Excellence

    Neal was the perfect addition to our day, his obvious skill and proficiency in wedding photography was evident during our experience. Neal has a connection with his clients, and knows how to set the scene; I had 20 people in my wedding party, and he successfully directed and guided each person to pose and obtained an amazing group photo. Not only was that impressive, but he was able to judge our personalities after only knowing us an hour and created beautiful couple photos. I will recommend Neal to anyone looking for an astounding photographer, he has by far created some of the best photos I have ever seen
