Introduction

I am a former photojournalist whose work has appeared in many newspapers and magazines. I started my photography business in the fall of 2015, with the goal of creating distinctive photographs that capture the joy of life and the unique personalities of my subjects, and of providing my clients with high quality professional work at reasonable prices. Photography is a passion in and of itself, and it also provides me with the opportunity to share and record important moments in the lives of my subjects, which is both a privilege and an honor.

Working with Kevin was amazing! I had connected with him to help me with a surprise engagement shoot. He was very responsive and made the whole process stress free. He provided tons of insight and even got to the location early to scope out the perfect spot. We are beyond pleased with the photos we have received. Can’t thank Kevin enough for capturing these memories for us!

I recently engaged Kevin's services for lifestyle and brand photography for my business, and I am delighted to share my experience. From the outset, Kevin exhibited a high level of professionalism through his prompt and attentive responsiveness. His commitment to excellent communication set a positive tone for our collaboration. On the day of the photo shoot, Kevin arrived at our home, and I immediately felt at ease in his presence. As someone who typically feels anxious about being photographed, I appreciated Kevin's ability to create a comfortable and relaxed environment. His friendly demeanor and reassuring attitude made the experience enjoyable and stress-free. What truly set Kevin apart was his dedication to exceeding expectations. Throughout the session, he demonstrated a remarkable level of professionalism and attention to detail. His creative vision and technical expertise were evident in the stunning photographs he captured. We were thrilled with the final selection of photos, which perfectly encapsulated the essence of our brand. Looking ahead, we are eager to collaborate with Kevin again in the near future. His exceptional talent, coupled with his genuine kindness and professionalism, make him a standout in his field. I wholeheartedly recommend Kevin to anyone seeking top-tier photography services. Thank you, Kevin, for your outstanding work and for making this experience memorable and rewarding.

Kevin was fantastic and we would highly recommend using him for all of your photographer needs! He was very responsive leading up to the surprise engagement, and even scouted out the location prior to it taking place. On the day of, he went to the location early (in very cold temperatures) to set up and make sure everything was ready! He captured our special moment and moments after perfectly- we are so lucky we have his photos to look back on when remembering the day of our engagement. Highly recommend - 10/10 a pleasure to work with and great at his craft!

My wife booked Kevin for a last minute family photo shoot of the 9 of us to celebrate my mother in law’s 75th birthday. He responded within an hour and was able to accommodate our request within 24 hours. He showed up on time and was so flexible about where and how to take the photos. He got all the shots we’re aiming for and remembered all of our names giving light direction (and being accommodating with the small kids). Then he got all the edited photos back to us the next day!! The value was incredible too. I cannot recommend Kevin enough. Such a wonderful experience.

Kevin Goddard did both engagement photos and wedding photos for us. We are very happy with the results. He really knows how to take a natural scene and make it look magical by only manipulating the lighting. He also knows how to set up great scences the bring out the best in people while also providing photos of spontaneous moments that look gorgeous. He is very nice to work with, understanding, flexible, and treats the event with respect. I would highly recommend him for any photography job.
