Handled the suboptimal conditions (mud everywhere, glaring sun, high winds that knocked things down) at the venue with ease and grace. Didn't even know they were there unless they were talking directly to us (stealthy!). Captured so many gorgeous photos and fun candids. They took our preferences into account- we got the types of photos that were important to us (and more!) and they were in the style we hoped for- natural, did not look heavily edited (and if they were you'd never know it!). Video clips and 1 min video montage were WONDERFUL. Many guests have commented how nicely they captured the essence of our day. Having both of them there was perfect - not only were they able to catch both sides of the wedding party getting ready in separate locations, but also the different angles of the same moments. We will enlist their services again for other events. They were fun and friendly and helpful, and we cannot say enough about Out of the Ordinary Photography!

From the owner: I believe the best wedding photographs are created through trust, connection, and genuine…read moremoments—not just beautiful locations or perfect poses. My approach combines documentary storytelling with gentle editorial direction, helping couples feel comfortable enough to be themselves while creating timeless images that will still matter decades from now. Over the years, my work has been recognized internationally, but what matters most to me is the experience my couples have. I’ve written books and educational guides to help couples understand how meaningful wedding photographs are created, because I believe an informed couple has a better wedding experience. My goal is simple: to create photographs that tell the story of your day honestly, beautifully, and in a way that grows more valuable with time.

We bought a Groupon and came for a family portrait. We scheduled the appointment online which was…read morean easy process but I didn't see any weekend appointments available. We didn't have to wait long when we arrived and the photographer did a great job. I was very pleased with how the pictures turned out and the prints were available later the same day.

What an incredible experience it was to work with Josh for my first photo shoot with Josh! Let me…read morestart by saying that this definitely won't be my last session. Collaborating with Josh was an absolute pleasure. He exudes an aura of calmness and hospitality that instantly puts you at ease. His ability to make you feel exceptionally comfortable in your skin is truly remarkable. Initially, I carried some apprehension in my purse, uncertain about how my body would look in the photos. However, thanks to Josh's expert guidance and unwavering support, I not only conquered my fears but also thrived during the shoot. The resulting photos were nothing short of amazing, and I found myself unable to choose just a few because I wanted every single one of them! Josh's communication skills have been impeccable right from the moment I signed up for the photo shoot until the actual day of the session. He sent numerous emails filled with invaluable information that helped us connect better and gave me a clearer understanding of what to expect during the shoot. He was always available to address any questions or concerns that I had, which made the entire process feel seamless and reassuring. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend Joshua for any future photo shoots you may be considering. His professionalism, warmth, and talent make him a fantastic choice for capturing memorable moments. If I have to say one thing, that is buy the Money Shot Photo!

UPDATE AFTER WEDDING: I still can't believe how perfect and…read morewonderful and supportive and chill Stephanie was on our wedding day -- amid the chaos behind the scenes and sheer joy all around, she was a calm presence celebrating us, our love, and our people. She went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed, and captured all sorts of things we were so happy to see after the fact. She was also AMAZING with our pup and flower children. : ) We are thrilled with our sneak peek photos, can't wait to see the full set in a few weeks, and honestly just want Steph to come visit us in Brooklyn to hang out. Thank you, Steph, and can't wait to see you again sometime soon! REVIEW FROM ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS: My partner and I are so so excited to be working with Stephanie for our wedding next year, and she gifted us an hour of engagement photos. We happened to be in town for one day this week, and she moved mountains to be able to meet us for a session. And y'all, she was AMAZING -- she took us from awkward-giggly to having a blast just hanging out together. We just got the sneak peek preview, and they're so great...we look like us, but the very best, happiest, and prettiest versions of us. She was triple prepared with backups on backups in case of surprise weather, made us feel so comfortable (especially important for us as a queer couple) and -- get this -- she even brought us coffee when we rolled up. Hero status. PSA: Book Stephanie for your wedding or literally anything else (headshots, engagement pics, etc.) -- she's the best decision we made in wedding planning and we're so excited to see her again!

I found this photographer and asked her a couple of questions about the beaches we would shoot on since I'm not local. She was very unresponsive and seemed to be offended I asked her questions about the seaweed in her beach photos. Again little to no response. After a week I asked "Are we on?". Finally she responded with I should find another photographer since the beach she shoots on is "not what I want". What?....I never said I didn't like the location, I just asked some questions about what beaches she shot at and emailed her that I was fine with whatever was the prettiest beach. Customers aren't allowed to ask questions about shoot location? Her pictures on her website are not even that good to be honest, she's definitely a novice, but I figured for a quick mini shoot it would be okay. But WOW, couple that with terrible customer service and $295 for 20 minutes for mediocre photos?. Buyer beware...
