    Above and beyond all our expectations!

    Picking Only 1 Shot Photography for our wedding day was one of the best decisions we ever made. My wife and I don’t even know where to begin on how amazing Sawyer is. We were lucky enough to meet him for our engagement shoot and magic truly happened. We walked in feeling so nervous and unsure of ourselves, but walked away feeling confident in how our pictures would turn out. Fast forward to almost a year later and we got to work with Sawyer and his assistant Kristen the day of our wedding. Both of them made all of our visions and dreams come true. Everything we discussed leading up to the wedding was captured beautifully. Sawyer has amazing ideas that come to him in the moment and trust him on it! The shots come out amazing! He has a vision that truly captures the beauty and love of the couple he’s working with and gives you all the comfort and confidence you need on your big day. They both were able to create great shots, speak clearly on their ideas, and capture them quickly which helped with the flow of the day. They also helped the day run so smoothly by offering to help with things out of their realm. They both felt like they were just apart of our group and it made for a really wonderful experience. As a same sex couple, we really worried about finding the right people to work with us and make our day special. Sawyer did just that. After the wedding, our family and friends raved about him and Kristen and the positive and helpful energy they brought to the day. They not only captured the memories, but they were apart of them. We got to dance, sing, and laugh with them all throughout the experience. We can not speak highly enough about Sawyer and can’t wait to work with him in the future. If you are still looking for a photographer, Only 1 Shot Photography is the way to go!

    Dear Emily and Kelly,

    I'm sitting here with the biggest smile on my face after reading your stellar review. As a wedding photographer, it doesn't get much better than receiving heartfelt praise directly from a couple I've had the honor of working with. Your words mean so much to me!

    From our very first meeting, when we really got to know each other's personalities and vision, I knew you two were incredibly special. Your energy lit up the whole room. And on your wedding day, that magic was amplified by a million. The love between you was palpable in every candid glance, intimate embrace, and joyful toast - it leaped right through my lens.

    Looking back at the photos, I can vividly remember so many touching behind-the-scenes moments that the images alone can't convey. Like the intimate first look when you caught your first glimpse of each other on your big day.

    Moments like those are etched in my heart. Thank you for welcoming me into them. It was such a privilege and pleasure to document your dream wedding. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness, laughter, and love. Stay in touch!

    With gratitude,
    Your friend,
    Sawyer

    Amazing moments captured

    Sawyer was amazing! Could have not asked for a better photographer for our big day. Really personable and did whatever it took to get the best shot even if that meant getting down on the ground for the perfect angle. Excelent communication and gave me amazing moment captures that I will be able to cherish forever.

    Only1Shot Photography's reply:

Your wedding was filled with love and joy, and it was truly a memorable experience for me as well.

    Amazingly Kind & Professional

    Mandi was already waiting for us when we arrived which is always a good sign. The professionalism, quality, and dedication to getting the right shots was outstanding all day long. Even though I knew at points I was basically asking Mandi to be in 2 places at once, it all worked out. Both my wife and I are delighted to have worked with Mandi, and would highly recommend!

    Only1Shot Photography's reply:

    I greatly appreciate your kind words and your trust in my photography services. It was a pleasure working with you and your wife on your special day, and I'm glad to hear that my dedication to capturing the right shots and maintaining professionalism throughout the day didn't go unnoticed. Your wedding was a beautiful event, and I'm delighted that you're both happy with the results. While I can't be in two places at once, I'm always striving to do my best to make sure everything works out perfectly.

    Thank you for the recommendation, and if you ever need photography services in the future or know someone who does, please don't hesitate to reach out. Wishing you and your wife a lifetime filled with love and happiness!

    Personable, fun, and professional experience

    Mandi has the personality to bring out the "real moment" in our photos. Casual conversations and fun times made our photo shoot much easier. The rain put a damper on our wedding day but Mandi's creativity and flexibility made everything much easier.
    All of our friends and family had a great interaction with Mandi. We saw a sneak peek of one of our photos and I can't wait to see the final products!
    I'll definitely be calling Mandi for my future events!!

    Mandi was amazing

    We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Mandi. From our first conversation to getting our preview pictures 3 days after the wedding, she's just been amazing. My husband was a bit nervous about getting his picture taken so much, and getting to know Mandi during the fab engagement photo session was great. She met up with us at the venue a few weeks before the wedding to discuss our plans and see where I was most excited to get photos taken, and gave us some advice for the day. On the wedding day itself, she was great--completely unobtrusive, but she managed to get all the photos we wanted! Just a complete pleasure to work with.

    Only1Shot Photography's reply:

    Barb,
    Thank you so much! Your wedding was so amazing and I loved working with you and Mark and getting to know you through the whole planning process! I'm so glad you loved your photos!

    Exceptional

    Wonderful experience. Mandi was a joy to work with and did an excellent job with the photos I got back so far! I am so glad I found her. I can't wait to see the others!!!

    Hi Brittany,
    Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your amazing day! I am so grateful to have gotten to meet your family and friends and capture such a loving group of people. I wish you and Brad years of happiness to come!

    amazing phtographer!

    Mandi from the start was so excited for us as well as super communicative about the entire process! I previously saw her work when she worked on my cousins wedding and just could not, not have her shoot our wedding. Please if you're looking and cant find a good fit, look no further with Mandi, her work never disappoints :) we will be in contact for future events :)

    Thank you so much for your kind words and having me as part of your amazing day! I cannot express how perfectly your vision came together for you

    Mandi is an ARTIST

    I've had the absolute pleasure of having Mandi do several shoots for me. She is truly amazing behind that lense, and her photos turn out STUNNING every time. She's able to capture images without them looking forced. She's super easy to work with, makes you comfortable, and honestly I don't ever plan on using another photographer again. Any occasion that calls for a photoshoot, Mandi is gonna be my go-to.

    Only1Shot Photography's reply:

    Thank you so so much Kaitlyn! You and Derek are always a dream to work with! I can't wait to capture your next journey in life!

    Absolutely fantastic

    My experience(s) with Mandi and how she does her photography has been nothing short of following through with an absolutely incredible experience.
    She is extremely responsive and fantastic with communicating/planning and setting everything up. Obviously has an eye/talent for how photos should be done. Ranging from different poses/scenery/moments and so fourth. If its a holiday shoot she is well talented and knowledgeable of getting that "Feel" of the holiday or season. She takes her time and truly wants to do the best work that she can. She is very communicative and transparent about making sure we have the best photos and experience possible, showing us a HUGE variety of pictures so my wife and I can select which ones we Really love. She has captured our family for pictures, our marriage, fall season photos, birthday photos and so fourth. If anyone out there truly desires a reputable photographer who truly and undoubtedly cares about their work/art form of capturing excellent photography, she is the one to go to.

    Only1Shot Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Derek! It's always a pleasure to work with you and your family. Congratulations on your marriage and i can't wait to work with you again!!

    An Amazing and Dedicated Photographer!

    Mandi is an absolutely amazing photographer! I'm by no means a pleasant-looking person, but somehow Mandi managed to make me look very presentable. She is extremely dedicated to her profession, and it shows in her work and the finished product. Moreover, she is incredibly good with people! She knows how to build rapport and make anyone feel truly comfortable when they are in front of the camera lens. I highly recommend her services!

    Only1Shot Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much, Jesse! It means the world to me when clients feel at ease with me. I hope you and your married life is everything and more!

    Beautiful Photos, Lifelong Memories

    After considering some of the larger wedding photography companies, we chose to go with Mandi, a local wedding photographer - what a fantastic decision! Mandi was a true joy to work with and she made us and all of our guests feel comfortable and at ease. Her work was truly beautiful, as she captured every single moment of our special day to create lifelong memories. We are so very glad that we decided to go with Mandi for our wedding photography needs and we highly recommend her services.

    Excellent and fun!

    Mandi is incredible! I've worked with her twice now and each time she has blown me away. She is so sweet and fun. Incredibly professional and the most down to earth photographer I've had the pleasure of working with. She makes you feel so comfortable and does a great job capturing the candid moments. She creates a loving space for you and your SO to be yourselves and she let's your personality shine. Highly recommend her again and again:)
