From the moment I found their website, I knew they would be perfect. Communication was always easy and they did a great job helping me plan a complete surprise engagement. They helped set up a special picnic after we got our photos done and my girlfriend loved it! The turnaround time to receive our pictures was VERY quick as well! We recommend Laura and Rachel to anyone who wants amazing pictures and to feel great on their special day!

I cannot recommend Gladyxa (G) enough! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to make…read moreour maternity photoshoot a truly special experience. When the weather didn't cooperate, she was incredibly accommodating and flexible in rescheduling so that we could have the perfect setting. As an expectant mother, I was a little nervous about being in front of the camera, but her kind personality immediately put me at ease. She made me feel beautiful, empowered, and confident throughout the entire session. My husband and I were also so impressed with how comfortable she made us feel with posing--it never felt forced, and she guided us in a way that felt completely natural and genuine. Not only is she talented behind the camera, but she truly cares about capturing meaningful moments. These photos are something we will treasure forever, and we are so grateful to her for making the experience such a joy.

You could say I found my wedding photographers before I found my husband. Over the years, I've worked with them numerous times over the years. Ben & Erin photographed my engagement session in Scottsdale, AZ. Then they photographed our wedding weekend in Lake Como, Italy. Every photo they took from our trip in Italy is my most prized possession! It was like having friends photograph the first most important day of my life. My pictures are emotional, sentimental, and vibrant. While I was living in the moment at my wedding, they were documenting moments I didn't even see happening. Today, I cherish the variety of pictures they captured of my Mom and me at my wedding, her happiest of times and now, all I have left to remember her. She loved Ben & Erin because they are not just friendly people, they are intelligent, fun to be around, adventurous and kind hearted people. Above all, they are the most communicative and creative photographers I have ever met. They always superpass my expectations. Next month, we will hire them to photograph our business headshots in Charleston, SC. I trust them to make me look good and capture my best looking self (maybe even better than myself). They know the right thing to do in every moment. I wouldn't just recommend them, I'd tell you to hire them before they book up.

We hadn't had a family photo taken in quite some time, so spur of the moment I tried to find a photographer for a Charleston photo shoot. The minute I saw Melissa's examples on her website, I knew she was the one I wanted to use. Due to my son's military schedule, we had to do some juggling to find a date and time that worked, but she was super accommodating. We wanted a "Charleston" backdrop, so we met at White Point gardens, took many photos there, as well as throughout downtown Charleston, and along the seawall at the battery. Melissa was great to work with, and made you feel immediately at ease. She had a lot of great suggestions, and really worked hard to get us a variety of photos so we'd have many to choose from. I also really liked that we would be given access to all the photos that she took, and weren't locked into a specific set amount. We are thrilled with the results, and would highly recommend her! Don't hesitate to give her a call, you won't be disappointed!!

We are so excited for our pictures. Melissa did a great job. We had a small elopement and I had a…read morevision of taking pictures at different downtown Charleston spots.

Rhett did an absolutely wonderful job photographing our small intimate beach wedding. I've known…read moreRhett for ten years - we attended the same college - and I had the advantage of already knowing his personality and style prior to the big day. However, the fact that I knew Rhett prior to my wedding day never altered his professionalism to ensure that our vision for the ceremony was everything we dreamed it to be. Rhett set up a meeting with us prior to the big day and made sure he had a schedule of events and a general idea of shots we wanted to get. He arrived early, and took advantage of every moment pre-ceremony. Rhett helped us stage a "first look", and then assisted in setting up our guests for the ceremony itself. After the ceremony, Rhett captured some amazing photographs of my new husband and I on the beach, and even though we didn't have the beach to ourselves, Rhett set up the shots to where it appears it was only us two there. Perhaps one of the things I was most pleased about was that Rhett emailed us a few wedding preview pictures the morning after the ceremony that my husband and I were able to immediately enjoy. They were absolutely breathtaking and gave us something we could share with family right after the big day. Our wedding photographs were edited and uploaded to our website three days after the ceremony - this is quite impressive and I've never had a photographer do that! I highly recommend Rhett for ANY photography need. I am so happy he was our wedding photographer. I would go through it all again just to have Rhett take more pictures of us (and that's saying something from a Bride!!).

Philip is such a professional through and through! He took the time to meet us before our outdoor…read morewedding, and made great suggestions on locations and angles. He captured SO MANY amazing moments from our day while being very un-intrusive during the ceremony. Our eager parents attempted to take photos themselves and direct our poses (*facepalm*), and Philip maintained incredible patience and professionalism through it all. In addition to being an amazing photographer, Philip has some really cool hobbies - ask him about them if you're lucky enough to hire him as your wedding photographer!

This is by far the easiest Five Star review I've ever written…read more Philip is seriously one of my favorite people on this planet! He's the best photographer in Charleston and probably even the country... or world. I'm not even being sarcastic when I say that - he's THAT good! I loved every second of our time together - from the Facetime chats we would have before the wedding to arranging my beautiful wedding album. First of all, I'm sure you have seen how incredibly talented he is. His work is truly the best of the best and he will give the most gorgeous photos. My wedding photos are so beautiful that they've actually brought me to tears. I love and cherish them so much. Then there is Philip as a person. He's just so amazing in every way. He's fun, professional, hilarious, and extremely kind. Even though the wedding is over, I still love talking to Philip whenever I get the chance. How many people consider their wedding photographer a friend after the fact? It's pretty awesome! One story I'll never forget - On the actual wedding day, my hair and makeup took too long and I was over an hour late getting to my First Look. My anxiety level was at all time high. Then, my dad who was supposed to drive me to the location decided to "go for a drive" and was no where to be found (seriously Dad?!). I thought I was going to break down in tears, but Philip had my back! He cleared out his car and I jumped in and he drove me to the First Look. On the way there, he helped me see the humor in the situation and my anxiety melted away. I went from feeling completely crushed to laughing in just minutes. He just has that effect on people. And trust me - when it's your wedding day, those are the types of people that make all the difference. It's so true that your wedding photographer is the most important decision you will make about your wedding. Don't hesitate - book Philip now! I'm 100% positive that you will have zero (and I mean ZERO) regrets. I wish I could do it all over again.

We thoroughly enjoyed the company of Aaron and Jill during our photo-shoot -- completely no awkwardness; something one might expect from engagement photos. Actually, we had a blast! They accommodated all of our requests with an extremely positive attitude and their suggestions proved to the best photos we had during the shoot! Their choice of location for our shoot was stunning - a place they scouted in advanced and personally picked to "match our style and personalities." Ha! Their responsiveness was amazing. Jill responded to all calls/texts/emails within minutes. Even the turn-around for the photos post-shoot was super quick! The quality of the photos were AMAZING! And I'm not sure what they did to touch them up... but Stella and I looked FINE! Aaron and Jill are truly masters. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Aaron Nicholas Photography for your next event.

Her true colors came out when we requested to cancel the date we booked with her due to an emergency. Due to my health, we wouldn't be able to make our date and we informed leeann that we would have to cancel. She informed us that we wouldn't be getting our deposit back but she would be able to reschedule. Normally, I understand about rescheduling but we are in Chicago and the time frame for us to actually go to Charleston was uncertain. In her contract, she states that she will reschedule, "due to severe weather." Beyond this, her "contract" says there is no refund policy but leads to believe its only for weather. The contract is very vague and misleading. If you schedule with her, be sure to ask questions about what "no refunds" truly cover if other situations should occur.
