10/10 amazing. I have referred them to multiple other people looking for photographers and videographers. I ADORE my video and Maurice did a fantastic job. Patrick was great for all the photos. They had so many great recommendations, suggested photo poses, and beautiful angles. I adore all of the pictures and how well he showed my wedding. They are so professional but also so personable!

It was a dream having Jen and Patrick photograph our wedding. They were accommodating to multiple venues and a spread-out time frame. Both Jen and Patrick made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and took breathtaking photos.

We had constant communication leading up to our wedding to ensure the correct timeline and shot list. The day of the wedding, they were very thorough to ensure every moment was captured. We can’t wait to work with Special Moments again! We absolutely recommend them for your next event.

Special Moments Photography was chosen from our venue’s vendor list. We were able to pick our photographer, and after looking at all of the profiles and portfolios, Jennifer was our number one choice. We couldn’t have been happier with not only her work, but how friendly and easy going she was. Right after she arrived, she was snapping shots of us ladies getting ready.

She felt just like another member of the family. She was able to capture so many intimate and beautiful moments. Thank you, Jen, for giving us such beautiful pictures and being in our family for a day.

Review on The Knot!  posted 07/27/2022

My husband and I met Patrick at a bridal show we attended before our wedding, and the portfolio of Special Moments Photography was by far the best one among the others.

The retouching on the photos looked natural and the angles & the lighting in the pictures were also great. I wanted the photos of our wedding to be more natural and not entirely posed, more like a “capture the moment” style and his candids were incredible.

They go on to say…

Our photographer was always accessible via phone & email, answering any questions we had and accommodating all of our needs.  On the day of our wedding, he and his team were very professional and also respectful of our request of wearing masks for the safety of our guests.

The pictures were ready for proofing not long after the event and we were surprised by their quality & quantity. We would recommend the services of Special Moments Photography.

Special Moments Photography was professional, friendly and so easy to work with from our first phone conversation through the entire wedding day and evening. Our two-part wedding ceremony and evening reception made for a long day and yet when anxiety can run high, they had an amazing calming effect. He was incredibly prepared with what was important to us, gathered from our earlier discussions.

They go on to say…

And technically, I can’t say enough about the quality and artistic nature of the numerous amazing photographs. Many of our guests commented positively about our photographer as well! Patrick – we thank you for capturing our day so beautifully!!

My sister-in-law recommended Special Moments Photography to us for our wedding after ruling out other options that did not convince us and I must say I absolutely loved the pictures!  We had to pose for a few photos after the ceremony and before the cocktails, when we arrived to the venue, but the rest of the pictures were taken discreetly, letting us enjoy our special day with our family and friends and capturing all those moments in a natural way.

Patrick, our photographer, even stayed a bit longer than agreed just to make sure we also had our “night shots”.  He always had a smile of his face and was very understanding with the stress we had that day. He is talented, professional and reliable. Highly recommended! Thank you Patrick!

“Dear Jennifer; I would like to express how totally satisfied I have been with the services Special Moments provided. Before our wedding I looked into and met with several photographers. Special Moments was the last I met with because after my appointment with Patrick I knew I need not look further.

I loved that with Special Moments I was working with a professional business and that I had many options, starting with which photographer I liked best… (she) was fun, relaxed, and is extremely talented! She is really an artist who captures moments in a natural and unobtrusive way. I am so proud to show people my wedding pictures, because they not only comment on the beauty of the wedding but also on the quality of the pictures themselves.

They go on to say…

Our wedding album is undoubtedly the most attractive album I have ever seen! The attention to detail with the design shows, as does the patience that was taken to have it exactly as we wanted it. When my friends get hitched I will most certainly send them your way with confidence! I would not want them to miss the chance to have their special day captured in such a perfect way!”

Thank you for everything! Sincerely; Kerry Black
