    Worth every penny

    “Ecstatic” doesn’t even begin to describe how we feel when admiring the work of our wedding photographer. Tim has such a girft! He didn’t just take pictures of us, he bottled the joy of that night and embedded it into each photograph. He saw whatever was in the background and created an unbelievably artistic image. His photos tell our story.

    When the event is over, all you'll have left is pictures. Tim Ray photography is worth every penny. You will not be disappointed!

    Forever grateful to Tim and his family for so beautifully capturing the best night of our lives!

    Be very specific about what poses you would like to have done for your wedding photos. Make a list of everyone that you want to be photographed that day and assign a person to help the photographer make sure all people have been photographed.

    Tim Ray Photography did an excellent job photographing the wedding. The service was not only professional, he went above and
    beyond to get beautiful, meaningful pictures that will provide lasting memories for a lifetime. Tim is more than a photographer, he
    is insightful and artistic, and he sincerely cares about the people he photographs. The pictures are all absolutely beautiful and the variety and number of photos is amazing. We would highly recommend Tim Ray Photography for your special event!

    Tim and his wife were very accommodating to meet all my needs for my wedding photographs. He designed a customized package that fit within my budget range and the pictures turned out exceptional. It was great that he gave me access to all the photos he took, as well! Tim took great shots, including all the details from my reception as well as action shots of our guests and my groom and me. He was very prepared, and gave us ideas of poses/shots when I couldn't think of them myself. Very pleased with my pictures and the professionalism that Tim displays! Excellent photographer and will highly recommend!

    I first saw Tim's photos when I visited Lakeview Resort and I knew he had to be my wedding photographer. His pictures are amazing. He pays such attention to detail and he is wonderful to work with. He also has great wedding packages. Tim really made me shine on my special day. I recommend him to every bride who wants to really capture every moment of her wedding day!

    Thanks for everything Tim! ~ Allison D.

    I would HIGHLY recommend booking Tim Ray to do your wedding photography. The photos from my wedding were amazing. While I loved all the posed portraits, what I was really impressed with were the outstanding candid shots. He truly captured the joy of my friends and family as they danced, chatted, and celebrated all day long. Also, he is very willing to work with you to get exactly what you want accomplished - he even made a pit-stop on the way to our reception to take some photos of us with our dog at our house since pets weren't allowed at either of our venues.

    When I found Tim Ray Photography by a google search for wedding photographers in WV, I was very pleased with his work. As being a fine arts photographer myself, I was a little picky about who I wanted as my wedding photographer. However, after talking with Tim on the phone and hearing his values about photography, and instilling what I already, knew that photos are one of the most important things to have from a wedding, I knew I had to have him as our wedding photographer. Not only is his work exquisite, but he was amazing to work with. Very easy going and flexible are just a couple things I can say about my experience with Tim on our wedding day. He has a passion for his photos, which shows in his images and he is sure to capture memories that you will forever treasure.

    Takes amazing pictures! Able to make any room look grand. Meet with him before the date if you are wanting specific pictures so you can give him a list otherwise you may not have time on the day of to get everything you wanted but he does a good job getting most of it on his own anyway.

    Tim Ray was able to capture those oh so sweet moments of our wedding day. The quality of our photos are fantastic and Tim's experience was certainly evident as he was able to artistically tell our story through his beautiful pictures! Tim was excellent to work with. He is extremely professional and kind! It is needless to say that Tim Ray Photography exceeded my already high expectations!

    My husband and I were a little worried about having a wedding that was 4 hours from our home and finding someone that could capture who we are without knowing them. Tim and his wife did an AMAZING job of this. Our pictures are great, they were timely and just let the night happen without trying to pose us for shots. We both have LARGE families and lots of little kids and Tim did a wonderful job on wrangling everyone in, even though it was hot and people were getting restless. I highyl reccomend him!

    Easy to work with and easy to contact ( email or phone) Sometimes our schedules do not mesh, but we make plans and hook up.

    I like the none structured photos that show the personality of my daughter and son.

    Not only was he so professional during the time with the family, but he blended into the group. This is important to get those wonderful shots. We also love his wife, Stefanie, who helped us.

    Let's try this again.

    Tim did a few photos for my brother and I to give to my folks for Christmas. My mom actually cried she loved them so much. After we decided to see if Tim would do my and Jeff’s wedding. He did such a great job and he was willing to do any shot we ask. What I loved most about is how responsive our dog and horses were around him. I can say we probably will see if he will do more pictures for us later on.

    While Tim did a good job, i specifically requested that he be creative, spontaneous, and 'work the crowd' to get pictures of the guests and action shots. I was very disappointed (a month after the wedding, not 1-2 weeks as promised) and then most of the pictures were staged and of the family or bridal party. There were some good pictures, but not exciting or quality that is portrayed on website.

    Tim Ray Photography's reply:

    I don't normally respond to reviews, but felt the need to do so with this particular review. Let me start by saying that this review is by the mother of the bride, and not the bride. I was contracted by the bride to photograph this wedding. The mother and father of the bride are divorced, and this is the point of contention by the mother. The mother of the bride emailed me that there were too many photos of the father/daughter dance, but I was there to photograph the wedding for the bride and groom.

    There are several factually untrue statements made in this review: First, I never promised that images would be ready in 1 to 2 weeks. The contract signed by the bride clearly states that the images would be ready in 2 to 4 weeks, and they were ready in that timeframe.

    Secondly, there were never any staged photographs captured at this wedding. All of the posed family and wedding party portraits were specifically requested by the bride and groom, and I captured only what they requested. We do offer additional photographers for those who want to capture more images of the crowd, but this couple opted for one photographer coverage.

    The Bride told me that she and her husband love their wedding photos and will cherish them the rest of their life, and that is what really matters to me.
