    It was such a pleasure to work with Phil. I knew he was the right fit for us the moment he suggested having our first meeting at Starbucks! We didn't have many ideas ourselves, but Phil came with plenty of suggestions and a great shot list. He was very flexible and worked with our limited amount time and small budget. We got so many wonderful pictures, and couldn't have been happier with his services!

    Great photos for great value! Our wedding package also included an engagement shoot. Phil had recommended a nice location for the engagement photos since we were looking for a place with the New York skyline. Phil came up with some creative shots as well as had flexibility in letting us choose our owns shots for the engagement and wedding shoots. In both cases he cases he was very professional and helpful. After seeing the photos for both shoots we were very pleased. He did a good job in capturing all the special moments between us.

    Phil Smith Photography's reply:

    Thank you both! I wish you both many years of Love, Health, and Happiness.

    My wife and I hired Phil's photography services for our wedding this past May. Phil arrived ahead of schedule with an extra photographer, and stayed well over an hour than we contractual agreed on. Immediately Phil utilized his time taking beautiful photographs of our venue. Phils talent made it appear as though our wedding and reception took place at several locations, when everything occurred under one roof. He utilized every amount of space, despite there being limitations. Efficiency and time management play an important role in weddings, and Phil handles both very professionally. Never once did my wife and I feel like we were missing out on our wedding. Our night was captured by a seemingly unlimited amount of photographs, quietly taken by Phil. My wife and I feel so blessed with having found Phil to capture our wedding day. He is very personable, kind, pleasant, talented, intelligent, reasonable, and flexible. While our wedding coordinator advised that our ceremony was delayed, Phil calmly assured me that it was not an issue and that he was there to stay the entire evening. We will be recommending his services to our friends, family and colleagues for the rest of our lives! All-around the best choice you could find for a photographer! Thank you so very much!!

    Phil & his assistant did an incredible job photographing our wedding! He was very organized & meet with us a few times beforehand to make sure he knew exactly what we wanted. He had a list of all the shots we requested & didn't miss a thing! Pictures came out beautiful! Also, he assistant Jordanna was amazing, helping the girls in the bridal party every step of the way. She would help fix my dress for the shots, she even ran back up to the bridal sweet on the 3rd floor where we had left our fur wraps for the outside winter shots. I got Phil's name from my best friend that has used him for several other occasions & now his name has been passed around her family & friends & we all love him! Super professional, punctual, knowledgeable, & very nice...you can't go wrong using him as your photographer.

    Me and my wife used Phil to photograph our wedding ceremony. He did a fantastic job and we were very pleased with his work. He was very friendly and explained all of the shots he planned to take prior to the event. He made sure to ask us for any special requests as well. We will definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a professional and friendly photographer to capture your special occasion.

    Phil and his team of photographers were amazing! From the moment we met for our free consultation I knew that he was the photographer I would want to trust to capture our big day. He is very professional, personable and over all a fun guy. He knew that we were on a budget and included a free engagment shoot in a local park by our house. It ended up being an overcast day, and in the photos (which i got back within days!! so quick) you could not even tell. The colors are vibrant and the angles awsome. If there are two vendors that you need to be sure about on your wedding day its your photographer and your DJ. Phil is the best choice we could have made in regards to photography! His prices were the most reasonable and his products top notch! We also hired him to have an open photobooth at our reception and it was so worth it! It was the hit of the party. They print out 4x6 post cards right there for all the guests to take home with them. (I suggest you bring props...they add to the crazyness) Our limo ran late for the ceremony and everything was off set by and hour. Phil stayed an extra hour and let the photobooth run an extra hour for no cost! My wedding was on 5/29/11 and I already recieved my unedited photos yesterday...I can not say enough good things about his work...every bride deserves service like he provided!!

    Phil was a great photographer leading up to the wedding and on the day of the wedding. The only issue is I have not heard from him for months now about when I will receive my wedding album. I will be coming up on my 1 yr anniversary in 2 months and after multiple attempts at contacting him I have received no response back. This is very disturbing since he was paid in full the month after the wedding. If I knew this was going to happen, I would've never used him for my wedding.

    Phil was great on the day of her wedding. Only problem? After MANY attempts at cobtsct, we STILL have yet to receive our PAID FOR wedding album. Our 6th anniversary is in October, just as a point of reference. A true shame since we REALLY enjoyed working with him prior to leaving us in the dust with a cashed check & no album.

    Phil Smith Photography's reply:

    Hello Donna,

    I am truly sorry you never received your book, I just checked the book company ship history and it does say they were shipped (they get sent drop-shipped the company). I just assumed they were sent. Email me your current address and I’ll have the book company send you a new album.
