She was incredibly friendly and responded quickly over email. During the session, she was great about making us feel comfortable, and she captured some wonderful candid moments. I loved that she didn't make every shot feel posed. She gave us a little guidance on how to situate ourselves for the shot, but then allowed us to interact with each other as we naturally would. The wait time for final photos was so short, and we loved how quickly we got to see the great work she did! These photos will last a lifetime. I'm so glad we chose Peaks+Waves Portraits to capture this special time in our lives.

We stumbled on Sean's site, because we were looking for a photographer in that local area. From beginning to end, Sean was a professional. He listened to our ideas and incorporated what we wanted into the pictures. Our ceremony was about 2 weeks ago, and we just got out pictures back. We LOVE THEM. They are so picturesque! He captured the emotion while capturing the ambiance. After leaving Sean and deciding on what pictures we liked, on the way home, I actually cried. I told my fiancee that was one of the most important things to me-THE PICTURES and they turned out better than we could hav ever imagined! Sean absolutely EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS! I highly recommend him! You will not be disappointed!

There's nothing more personal than your wedding day. I consider it such an honor to be chosen to photograph these family moments. The instant they happen, the moment is gone. As much as we try to remember and cherish, our memories fade and our lives, families, faces, all change so fast. I want to preserve these memories and stories of your wedding day for you and your loved ones. My goal is to document the emotions and unique story of each wedding day as authentically and raw as the events unfolded. I specialize in documenting candid interaction and emotional expression. We spend our whole lives seeking joy and contentment, and I love that I get to spend my career celebrating and sharing love.

My husband and I could not have been happier with MedleyMint's photo booth at our wedding. I was…read moreunsure if we really "needed" a photo booth at the reception but after seeing their photos online I could not get over how beautiful and fun they looked. We decided to go for it and it was absolutely worth every penny. All the guests were raving about how it's so different than any other booths they've experienced at other events. And I have to agree! It's actually pretty to look at and not a giant eye-sore plopped in the middle of your beautiful reception. The whole process, from set up to take down, ran so smoothly. I'm so glad we opted to make their booth a part of our wedding and our guests were able to take home some awesome photos of themselves. Some of my favorite photos from our entire wedding day came from MedleyMint's booth. We have Jason and Jennifer to thank for being such an incredible team that made the entire experience fun, engaging, and easy from the booking to my big day! I can't wait to find another reason to use them.
