Now that the whirlwind day has passed, I'm *so* grateful to have the beautiful pictures she took to remember all the little details of the day. Of course, the pictures are beautiful - you can see that from her portfolio and blog posts. What you can't see there is how helpful it was to have Jackie helping with the process. I hadn't had a wedding before - but Jackie loves weddings and has a really good sense of what works and how to make the process easier. The questions she asked when we met helped me to find and avoid issues that would have added to my stress and taken away from my and the guests' enjoyment of the day. I also hired Jackie a couple years ago to take pictures of the four teenagers whose dad I married, as a Father's Day gift. None of the teens knew me well yet, and they didn't know Jackie at all - and one in particular was extremely averse to having his picture taken. The resulting photographs were fantastic! She captured not only images of the kids, but some of their personality as well...and she got the reluctant one to smile for the camera a couple of times. (My profile pic on this account is from that photo shoot, too...) If you have the opportunity to work with Jackie as a photographer, do it! It's worth the money - particularly when you realize you get to amortize whatever you spend with her over years of looking back and remembering the special occasion, and sharing it with the people in your life who can't be there in person.

I'm so thankful we found Garret for our engagement shoot! He did such a beautiful job that we hired…read morehim for our wedding. He was always quick to respond to emails and texts. He kept his cool composure the whole wedding day which was reassuring to us and our bridal party. Garret knows how to make the whole group laugh to get genuine smiles out of everyone. You can really see it reflected in our photos. He sent us our wedding gallery before we even got back from our honeymoon! We're talking days later. And he takes input very well if you want a certain shot. If you are looking for someone who is easy going, kind and does amazing work, Garret is your guy! There were two things I heard during our wedding that I think complimented him very accurately: "Garret is definitely someone we'd be friends with outside of this wedding stuff." - Groom (I think he's going to miss him a little) "Garret has been easy and fun to work with today. It's nice to meet people like that in my line of work." - Videographer

We…read morefound Garret on Facebook and we really liked the look of his work, so we had a meet with him. We met at a Starbucks and Garett was so easy to talk to. Super personable! He answered all of our questions and had some extra perks we liked. He was easily our favorite vendor throughout our wedding planning process! He is quick on response times and always willing to answer questions. Some things we personally loved that he did was at the reception he put up some of the photos he took throughout the wedding so our guests were able to see them! We got a lot of compliments on that. Guests loved it! Another thing was that he worked hard at remembering our bridal party's names. My matron of honor and I were both really impressed by that! It made taking the photos a lot more fun. He also stays ALL day. He doesn't put a time limit on the event. We loved that. Time limits can be stressful because you're trying to get all the photos done before they have to leave. All he asks is for a meal for him and his assistant. The last and biggest thing we loved was that he helped side step a problem. My dad forgot his tie, but before I could have a mini panic attack that we were out a tie, my mom came in and told me that the photographer offered his grey tie to my dad. His tie matched really well with the suits and it was perfect! It was very kind and caring of him to do that. My husband and I were really grateful! We did pay more than what we planned for Garret, but we have no regrets about that! The photos came back quickly and are amazing! We loved working with Garret and definitely recommend him to anyone and everyone!!!

Ashley is so knowledgeable, kind, and easy to work with. Our maternity photos were taken in the morning at Coxhill Gardens in Carmel, Indiana, and she made the whole experience feel relaxed and magical. For our newborn session, she came to our home and was so patient and creative -- even amazing with our cats! She truly captured such special, genuine moments for our family, and we'll cherish these photos forever. We highly recommend Ashley Line Photography and Design to anyone in the Indianapolis or Carmel area looking for beautiful maternity or newborn photography.

My wife (fiance at the time) LOVES pictures. To her, the one thing that was most important about…read morethe wedding was having great pictures to remember it by. I personally find pictures annoying to take and wasn't as excited about it. My wife and I had attended another wedding in Indianapolis where Rich was the photographer and she loved the work he did and how he did it. I was agnostic and let her choose. The experience started with the engagement pictures. Rich is based in Indianapolis but is expanding into Chicago based on demand. Rich came to Chicago and we just explored the city together with him taking pictures all the while. He would take pictures in what I thought were very random places, but after seeing the results I realized he had an amazing eye for picture possibilities and lighting. Rich also took a lot of candid shots that captured our personalities and interaction. I'm not a huge fan of taking pictures, but Rich made us feel comfortable and made me excited to see the end results. For the wedding Rich was just as good. He blended into the background and used the settings that nature and the venues provided. The pictures didn't feel staged, but instead felt natural and fun. They captured the moments and the true spirit of the day without Rich ever trying to control the situation or be invasive. As a groom, I would definitely rec commend Rich to other guys as being a pleasure to work with. I know that brides will be amazed too, because mine is very picky about her pictures and she was absolutely amazed.

He recognized our vision and met all of our requirements: engagement session, all-day photography, all images provided on disc, and photo book. We also received a discounted rate because we had our wedding on a Friday night. Our engagement photos were stunning. We met him for an afternoon at the Canal and he made it look like we had been whisked away to somewhere in Europe. He also gave us about 8-8x10 prints from the session and a few were featured on his website. On our big day, Rich helped capture every moment. He and his assistant photographed the entire ceremony, as well as all the preparations. Some of the pictures from the salon of my bridesmaids and me are my favorites. He also helped orchestrate a beautiful "first glance' moment between my husband and me. After the ceremony, our wedding party took a bus around the city and Rich had us photographed in some beautiful spaces. My only regret is we didn't get to the Circle, but maybe for our vow renewal! He and his assistant stayed well into the night and found big and small moments to capture. We treasure his work and it makes me so happy that we invested our time and money with Rich. You would not regret choosing him as your photographer for any important event.
