A few weeks ago, I set up an appointment & contacted Wayne for my Senior Grad photos and they came out excellent! The quality of work he does is just phenomenal. I would highly recommend his business to anyone looking to take good quality professional pictures.

I called Wayne a week before a special date when I wanted to take graduate portraits and he squeezed me in with no problem. He was very courteous, professional, and informative during my shoot. He also has an eye for detail, which I love because I'm a perfectionist. I am very satisfied with my final portraits. I look forward to working with Wayne again!

Called Wayne because I needed a professional photo for work. He squeezed me into his schedule over the weekend and got my photo sent to me very quickly. I am very impressed with the results and time it took him to deliver. I will recommend this Photographer to anyone I meet in need.

If you are looking for an outstanding photographer this is your guy! On our first wedding anniversary my husband surprised me with a photo session because our wedding pictures were awful. I was beyond heartbroken that we had no photos of our special day that were even worth putting up in our house. Our anniversary pictures on the other hand were so amazing I hard time picking out the top 20! I'm uncomfortable taking pictures normally but he had us so relaxed that the pics looked natural and they all turned out great.

He has an amazing eye for lighting and settings and that combined with his professionalism and talent made for the most incredible pics! I can never make up for not having a single picture of my mom and I on my wedding day but these memories Wayne captured definitely softens the blow. I've never written a review before but I learned the hard way that having a great photographer is so important when it comes to encapsulating precious moments in your life. Thank you soooo much for that Wayne you are a treasure!
