“When it came to finding a photographer, it was a no brainer. I wanted the best. We can honestly say our wedding photos would not have gone near as smooth had it not been for Ben. From senior photos to my wedding day, I have worked with Ben for all the important moments in my life. He is the king of details and I knew he wouldn't miss a moment. He is so calm, efficient, and truly is the best to work with!”

“Picking a wedding photographer is one of the hardest things to do when planning a wedding. Ben is so easy and great to work with - clear, fun, communicative, friendly, and professional. Rest assured that your wedding photos are one thing you will not have to worry about.”
