Lisa was absolutely incredible from signing the contract to the day of our wedding. Her joy and excitement over her job is absolutely contagious. I was instantly at ease with her and didn’t need to worry about a thing! On the day of our wedding, both Lisa and her second shooter were brilliant. They made sure that everything ran smoothly. Our photos are absolutely breathtaking and arrived sooner than expected - in peak wedding season too! To say that I’m obsessed with the photos is very much an understatement! It was an absolute delight to work with her and I look forward to booking her for more events in the future! Thank you so much, Lisa!

Lisa just is awesome. She was super responsive, let us make some decisions about photos here and there if we had an idea or something like that, and was truly just an absolute BLAST to work with and have around on the day-of. Beyond being an awesome photographer, she was a great addition to the day because she's so much fun and kept things light and really allowed us to retain the "magic" of the day getting shots that really represented us as a couple and stay in the moment. A million stars.

Lisa was absolutely wonderful through this whole experience! She was very communicative through the engagement photos, to the wedding day craziness and was helpful with all of my questions, no matter how many I had. The wedding photos she gave us are perfect memories and capture the joy and love of our day better than we could have imagined. We cannot recommend Lisa enough! She will make your event memorable and her photos will keep those precious moments alive.

Lisa was awesome! I was cool, calm and collected during my planning, however, day of I had a few obstacles that caused me to be a bit of a bridezilla😬😬I had issues with my dress and Lisa jumped right in and offered her help (which ultimately saved me from a total meltdown bc the dress was just NOT dressing the way it was supposed to!) She helped calm me down, assured me that I was the bride and it was MY day and to take my time bc nothing was starting without me! Then, despite the rain, she still made sure we got the outdoor pics I originally wanted but thought weren't going to happen! We had no bridal party, so there weren't "traditional" photos that we needed to have, however, Lisa made sure she got pics with I think every guest! My gallery isn't ready yet, but we got a sneak peek and they're gorgeous! I'm so excited to see the rest! I highly recommend Russell Photography, if you want someone who is responsive, friendly and down to earth to help you on your big day, she went above and beyond and we're very happy we hired her!
