We couldn't have asked for a better photographer.
My wife and I reached out to Craig because we had seen some photos we liked from other weddings he had photographed at our church, but ultimately the reason we selected him was because from the very first conversation he was receptive, helpful, and direct! He made us feel all taken care of by the time our wedding day arrived which was a huge relief considering all of the other wedding-related tasks that were taking up our attention.
After our ceremony, Craig did an amazing job with getting the families together and directing everyone for our portrait shots. What I admired especially about the way Craig worked was that throughout the ceremony and reception he was barely noticeable; seemingly weaving in and out of the special moments of the day to capture them candidly. I also appreciated that before he left, he approached me and asked if there were any shots I wanted with specific people that I hadn't mentioned to him before the wedding.
Craig got our photographs to us much earlier than we anticipated, and quickly went the extra mile for us when we requested some changes to the original package we had purchased. We would recommend his services to any couple who is looking for a photographer that is easy to work with and will go the extra mile for their clients.

Highly Recommended
Craig Spiering is a fantastic wedding photographer and we are happy to recommend him to other couples. We had a small wedding with very few people in attendance, but he gave our wedding the same level of attention and courtesy that he has clearly given much bigger events. In addition to his professionalism and skill, he is also an incredibly nice person. He put us all at ease as he worked, and he was wonderful with adults as well as the one child we also had in attendance. The resulting photographs are beautiful and exactly what we wanted. We will treasure them for years to come!

Beautiful photos!
Craig did an amazing job photographing our wedding! He was very easy to communicate with and was efficient yet thorough on the actual wedding date. My husband and I wanted a photographer who would be able to capture the beauty of a Catholic Nuptial Mass and Craig surpassed our expectations!

5-Star Services All the Way!
Craig was recommended to us by family and friends due to the high quality and natural authenticity of his photos. Not only were my husband and I more than happy with how our wedding day photos turned out, but working with Craig was a joy. He was responsive, detailed in providing information and instructions prior to the wedding and day-of, and exceptionally good at organizing us and our family and guests for photos. I knew we had found the right photographer when Craig enthusiastically agreed to our photo request to include both sides of our family in one shot - a group of 80+! We never felt rushed and photos were a breeze. We couldn't recommend Craig more!

Stunning Pictures and So Easy to Work With
Craig's pictures were absolutely stunning! He did a great job capturing a fantastic day. His pricing was super reasonable. Also, he was so easy to work with! He was fantastic with managing time and making sure to get all the pictures we asked for. And as an added bonus, he did great working with the cranky toddlers that were a part of our day! 10/10 would recommend!

Excellent for Both Experiences
I highly recommend Craig Spiering’s photography for his talent and knowledge of how to find and capture the beauty and joy of the wedding, and for his professional and gentle presence. His non-intrusive style made all of us, even my mother, who is often camera-shy, very comfortable having him in the room. At our Catholic ceremony, he was almost invisible and was not a distraction from the solemness of the Mass, while also understanding the Mass well enough to photograph the important moments. He seemed to be available every time I wanted to ask for a photo with someone during the reception, while also collecting photos of other interactions that I did not see. All his photos are amazing, capturing the joy in everyone’s faces, the beauty of the church, centerpieces, gowns, et cetera, in a variety of styles from crisp portraits to wide-angle views. He seemed to miss nothing, collecting pictures of our guest book, cake, and other details that we had prepared. It was great to work with him, from the time we planned what photos we wanted, to the very professional and comprehensive way he sent all the photos to me on a hard drive, posted them on a secure website, and compiled our favorites into a high-quality album.
I had known that I wanted Craig to be my wedding photographer ever since I met him when he photographed my sister’s wedding. He made my family comfortable, took all the extra photos that I requested, and produced a wonderful collection of beautiful images that captured my sister and brother-in-law’s joy and personality. Having watched his work from the perspective of a bridesmaid and also as the bride, and having seen the photos and albums of two of his works, I have complete confidence in his ability to bring all the most beautiful and joyful moments of your wedding to remember for years to come.

Amazing photos and fantastic experience
We've been to two other weddings where Craig was the photographer, and it was a no brainer for us - we knew we wanted to hire him. He is incredibly personable, making everyone in the room feel comfortable and at ease. He has a great sense of humor and was easy to talk to! He also listens to his couples on what photos they want, even in the moment he will take requests and photos, even the guests felt comfortable to ask! Craig is great at capturing candid moments, like a fly on the wall in conversations - some of our favorite pictures were of us having conversations with our loved ones, enjoying the moment, and it is all because Craig was able to catch it naturally. The photos we received after editing were amazing, it was like reliving the day all over again. I will HIGHLY recommend Craig to friends and family!

Truly fantastic photos
Craig was absolutely incredible! One of my favorite qualities about Craig is that he is non-invasive, during the ceremony he was very respectful to allow for people to enjoy the wedding. He was also super fast with photos in between the ceremony and reception but still got amazing shots. Craig captured the most incredible (and high quality) photos from our special day. 10/10 would recommend!

We hired Craig for our fall wedding and he did not disappoint us at all; he made our very special day effortless and easy. We did not know what to expect and so, he was very professional and knew exactly what to do. Our pictures came out exceptionally beautiful and it is something we will not forget.

Craig was very kind, professional, and caught many great moments of our day!
Craig made sure to filfull our request of pictures we wanted throughout the day. He was great on last minute changes (it happens!) and caught great moments throughout the ceremony and dinner. We received our photos really quick and with no copy rights so we could get them printed any where. This was hard to find as most photographers owned the rights to your photos which we did not want. We are happy we choose him and he worked with us! Thank you Craig!

He made us feel natural and got the best shots in with the minimum amount of effort on our part so we could focus on being present to our guests.
Craig was so easy to work with. As the groom I loved how he was able to walk the line between being friendly and putting me at ease and being professional in getting the shots he needed and getting people to gather and stay focused without being pushy. He made sure the atmosphere stayed joyful and so we were able to get shots with my family (10 kids, 34 nephews and nieces) within five minutes of everyone being gathered. My wife was so pleased with all the photos and we have received many comments on social media asking what Bridal magazine we were posing for. Its been so fun sharing our wedding pics since Craig seemed to capture all the moments we hoped he would and more.
Another thing my wife and I loved was how unique his bridal party shots were. The weren't your standard "line up in front of the church" shots. His sense of the importance of the day and the joy it represents came through in the way he arranged us and had us smiling and laughing.
Lastly, i loved how FAST he worked. Posing is already awkward so he was done before you could actually start feeling weird. So most of our shots came out with everyone looking natural. I'd definitely recommend Craig for any occasion.

My wife and I are coming up on our first year anniversary and looking back through the photos, I can't say enough about Craig and the work he did.

Extremely Professional and Reliable
We loved working with Craig and having him as our photographer. The quality of his photos is excellent. He has amazing people skills and directed our family and bridal party so well during the formal shots, and he blended into the background for the ceremony and reception and still got us amazing photos! He was extremely organized and was able to accomplish everything we asked for specifically as well as get a ton of candid shots of our guests. Highly recommend.

Amazing photographer!
Craig did a fantastic job shooting our wedding. When we met him at a coffee shop in Front Royal, he immediately impressed us with his friendliness, professionalism, and eagerness to capture the beauty of our special day. On the day of the wedding, he was completely unobtrusive and quick, snapping gorgeous shots both planned and spontaneous. He also did a fantastic job arranging our wedding album afterwards and put it together in a very timely fashion. We're so grateful for his services and would recommend him to anyone!

Excellent Experience - Highly Recommend!
Craig Spiering is an incredible wedding photographer and we were so overjoyed to have him capture our special day. Our first shoot in the morning was rained out and Craig was able to take ALL of the bridal party photos in a very short time period before the reception. He was so quick and efficient at getting large family groups in shots, herding the bridal party, and capturing sweet moments of my husband and me. We got every shot we wanted and so many more creative ones we had never thought about. He captured candid shots of the guests, family, and bridal party.
Craig is so experienced with wedding parties and capturing fun shots. No one likes posing awkwardly for photos and with Craig behind the camera, it never felt forced.
We absolutely love our photos and our experience with Craig. We cannot recommend him enough! You will be in excellent hands with his services.

Timeless, beautiful photographs from a true professional
As someone who has loved photography and cherished family photos her entire life, having beautiful photos to remember my daughter's wedding was a high priority. Thankfully, Craig had been recommended by a friend who also had a January wedding. As soon as I saw his website showcasing his work and philosophy, I knew he'd be exactly what I envisioned, and he did not disappoint! In addition to his responsive communication and professionalism, he was also extremely accommodating with special requests and flexible when we had to change the reception location at the last minute! He put the bride and groom at ease immediately, even though they had not met him before, and he has a great eye for capturing the special moments in the Nuptial Mass and for arranging family groups and large wedding parties. His photos have a classic beauty that will be cherished for generations, and I cannot stop looking at them! Thanks for the memories, Louise Deal

Beautiful Pictures of an Unforgettable Day
Craig was absolutely amazing to work with and I am so glad we had him as our photographer! Due to getting married during a pandemic we had to make some changes 2 weeks prior to the wedding and Craig was so kind and flexible with every change. The day of the wedding Craig immediately put everyone at ease and made it fun too! We had a great time taking pictures with him! The pictures turned out beautifully and my husband and I absolutely love them! He really did a beautiful job capturing a day we will never forget!

Capturing the Most important Memories
Craig was amazing! He did a fabulous job with all the photos at both the wedding and reception. He was so good, many people did not even realize he was there until they saw some of the shots he got. They were so amazed and so please as we were and are!
Craig's ability to use light made it like all his shots were taken at the "golden hour" (in photography when the natural light is just right for some of the best color and contrasting) when in reality it was the middle of the day.
We are so grateful and recommend him for any occassion where you would want captured and to treasure in pictures.
