    Authentic!

    A true professional! My favorite thing about Travis' approach is that we never knew he was there. He captured so much raw emotion that will remind us of how we felt for years!

    Outstanding job by Travis! He is so patient when it comes to working with couples. We love his style, which focused on the emotion and relationships between us and our family and friends. His background in sports pays off as we didn't have to stage anything. He captures real moments! First class!!!

    Brilliant!!! I was impressed with how fast Travis is with his camera. We never had to do anything over. He blends in wonderfully. Also allowed us to create our own custom package. Love our photos!!!

    We are so pleased with our wedding book. It tells the complete story of our day.

    Travis captured so many angles. Looking through our book, it looks like we had three photographers there because of all the different angles.

    Such a joy to work with. Highly recommend!!!!!

    Travis was with us for almost every event surrounding our wedding, including the engagement session, guys playing golf, the rehearsal, wedding day and Sunday brunch.
    We are extremely pleased with all of the pictures. He captured so much emotion with each event!!!
    Having a large family, we knew he may get a lot of requests for pictures and he took care of each one with ease.
    I love the humility he brought to the day. Nothing bossy about him at all!!!!! He just blended in and told the story of our day with pictures.
    Last but not least, he is not a salesman. He did not once put pressure on us to upgrade to packages or other options. We LOVED that!!!

    I will admit that when I first heard Travis talk about some of the similarities between sports and wedding photography, I had no clue what he was talking about. I absolutely get it now!

    He captured moment after moment on our wedding day!!! His timing with the camera and knowing where to be was great!!!

    You want even realize he's around but when you see your book, you'll think he was everywhere.

    I am completely sold on the concept that wedding photographers with a background in photographing sports make a fantastic choice for your wedding!!!!!

    I wanted Travis to photograph my wedding but he was already booked. He did our engagement session and my bridal portraits. He was so easy-going and created memorable images from both sessions. I've seen some photographers who believe the world revolves around them. He is nothing like that. He brings a humble, hard-working approach to the photography.

    Truly and artist with the camera!!! My husband and I are very happy with our book and how Travis photographed our wedding. He was a joy to work with through the whole process. He gave us several options on customizing a package. I agree with the other brides that mention how when they look at their book, it looks like there were 2-3 photographers at the wedding. He created so many different angles! We loved being able to be a part of the design process of the book afterwards. He gave us several opportunities to change the design of the book. We are thrilled with the choice we made to look for not just a wedding photographer but a photographer with a diverse background!!!He creates pictures for television, editorial publications and covers college and pro sports.

    I asked Travis to photograph my daughter's wedding. I am professor and he has visited my class several times to talk about photography.

    Travis is a proven talent with years of experience. As expected, he captured fleeting moments at the wedding with ease. What has to be mentioned is how his background in photographing college and pro sports makes him a better wedding photographer. Travis has an ability to compose quickly while using creative lighting during moments that may only last a second or two. That's one of several God-given talents that he brings to the table when you hire him.

    The director at the wedding joked that she really didn't need to give Travis a breakdown of what was coming next because he already knew! A great example of the experience he brought to the wedding.

    You can't go wrong with Travis. If he's already booked, take the time to find a wedding photographer with a background in shooting sports. It makes all the difference in the world.

    I would recommend Travis to any bride who wants their photographer to bring an artistic and documentary style to their wedding. Saying he is easy to work with is an understatement. We are thrilled with our images!!!

    I am blown away by the pictures that Travis took at our wedding! I didn't even realize he was there most of the day. He captured the emotion and all the details! We turned around one time at the reception and he was on a ladder shooting dance pictures. I am sold now on the idea that a sports photographer also makes a good wedding he photographer. He is very talented when it comes to freezing a moment!

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Travis and his work!!!! He was flexible, sincere and hard working.

    Being a Journalism and English major, I wanted a photographer with a background in photojournalism. Our book tells a wonderful story not just for us but for our children as well!!!

    I just can't say enough good things about Travis. Even during the formal shots after the ceremony, he was a master of getting everyone organized and keeping them calm at the same time. He didn't even mind our family and friends shooting pictures during the formal shots!!!

    Our dancing pictures are the best we've ever seen from a wedding. He had a camera on a long stick that he would hold over the dance floor. The angles are spectacular!!!

    I could go on and on. Thank you Travis!!!!!

    I began following Travis' work when I was at Northwestern High School in Rock Hill and he was a photographer at The Herald newspaper. When I got engaged, he was the first vendor I called. He is so fast when it comes to capturing unplanned, emotional moments at the wedding. He has a background in shooting college and pro sports and it shows with his wedding photography!

    One of the hardest working photographers we've ever met. My husband and I were very pleased with the images he captured.

    He is very big on photographing moments as they happen, so we didn't have to stop for him or repeat anything. He made a lot of photos from different angles throughout the day as well. A lot were from up high and gave us a great perspective of the ceremony and reception.

    He is very gracious and actually stayed an extra half-hour at our reception with no additional charges.

    We love our pictures!!!

    Absolutely wonderful photographer! He was very professional and worked with us to design a package that met our needs. He is a photojournalist so he doesn't do any "fake" pictures (like a fake bouquet toss picture before the real bouquet toss). He captures everything as it happens. You don't really even know he is there until you see the pictures and realize that he was somehow able to get such amazing shots. He captures everything from emotion to the smallest detail in your dress. He is amazing, and I would recommend him to anyone. On a side note, he also does sideline sports shots for Clemson and the Univ. of SC football and basketball; and his work has been in espn magazine and other famous publications.

    A joy to work with. We were thrilled to secure him for our day!

    Travis' talent at our wedding went beyond our expectations. No other word to describe him but STEALTH! We didn't know he was there!

    There are dozens of moments that we look back at and show us the emotion we felt on our wedding day.

    There were a couple of times when he took a few days to get back with us but aside from that, a wonderful experience!

    A great wedding vendor and talent!!!
