My experience with Lee was excellent! He shot photos of my wedding and did a great job of capturing the moments. He worked side by side with our videographer and venue to make sure everything went seamlessly. Me and my wife have also used him for other a engagement shoot and the photos came out amazing. Lee is professional, punctual, and take amazing photos.

Lee is absolutely amazing and so talented. He truly cares about the people he works with and is incredibly professional. We hired Lee for our wedding and engagement pictures and it was the best decision we could have ever made! Our engagement pictures are stunning and we are so excited to see our pictures from the wedding. Lee was punctual, took initiative, and was a pleasure to work with. We will be recommending him to all of our friends and family getting married moving forward. If you’re looking for a photographer for your special day Lee is truly the best and we highly recommend him!!

If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding or event, Lee is the one. He is an incredible photographer, we hired him for our small ceremony and reception at Liberty State Park. The photos came out amazing, we are in love with the result. He is a wonderful person, very responsible (he arrived 30 min before the ceremony), my family felt very comfortable with him and they enjoyed the moment. Thanks Lee!
