Sally is a wonderful photographer and was amazing at taking me through the entire process of my engagement photos. I had some requests about the photos that she was able to accommodate for to the best of her ability and I couldn't be happier with the results. Sally was very flexible with my schedule and didn't discourage any ideas I had, rather she added her expertise and was able to collaborate both her ideas and mine which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Sally to any couple looking for high quality and affordable shoots. I wouldn't have changed anything about my experience with her.

We had a phenomenal experience with Idle Hands Photography. We had never had photos done before and didn’t know what we wanted specifically, so I described the type of couple we were and he worked his magic! I will definitely use him again in the future! He was very flexible and let us just be us and he captured the moments! Highly recommend using his service! Our pictures turned out wonderful and are loved by so many family members already. I will cherish them forever!

Rae was a gem during our experience getting married. She has wonderful interpersonal skills and put my fiancé and I, both very camera shy people, immediately at ease and gave us direction while we were photographed. She was creative and adaptable, professional and capable. I would recommend her to any couple for a wedding or elopement shoot and wish her the best.

(Wish 4.5 stars was an option, because aside from the small stumbles during our first & last phone calls everything else was pretty great.)
Style in Light was the second photographer I spoke with during my search. I called during my work day (8am-4:30pm) to follow up on our TT messages with a voice conversation and when they answered I thought I had woken them. The conversation was more direct and dry (business oriented instead of frilly feeling oriented) compared to bubbly and excited sounding like the previous photographer. The almost emotional-less tone coupled with questions being asked had already been answered during our message exchanges/the original TT request submission, caused concern as if I were some weird business after thought. But overall the conversation was quite thorough. There was also a misunderstanding in how TT priced the original quote, but they were kind enough to honor TT's quote price.
My Fiancé and I reviewed their portfolio and preferred Style in Light's photography technique and image touchup skills over the other 2 we ended up considering. Requested & reviewed their contract and received a comprehensive list of wedding photo types to select to decide/discuss wedding day schedule as well as all the pre/post-wedding photos that would partially determine the schedule too. All the following phone conversations went well and were pleasant. Contract signed and deposit paid, I was thrilled to have secured my wedding photographer.
Then the Covid pandemic shutdowns came and by end of April /early May we were forcing us to postpone our wedding from June 2020 to Oct 2020. When I reached about to reschedule, I was told maybe and we'd talk later about. During our follow up call I was informed they weren't available that day but there was also concern/lack of understanding about some feedback received and that maybe we weren't a good working fit. I understood the date availability but was confused about the feedback portion, but accepted they're cancellation of our contract. They fully and immediately refunded our deposit and sent a good list of other wedding photographers they could confidently and comfortably provide as professional recommendations for us to contact. Eventually I printed and added their recommendations to my wedding book to do list, but was disappointed to not work with Style in Light Photography.
Don't know if my review will be helpful to anyone, but a mostly extroverted person with introverted tendencies you now know my limited experience and my personality type for personal perspective reference.
