    The absolute best photographers

    Richard and Tara were WONDERFUL to work with. We felt so comfortable with them during the entire process. They were so kind, knowledgeable, creative, and very efficient. They knew exactly how to get the best photos. We had a lot of fun with them and they got along so well with the entire group. They made taking photos a fun part of the wedding day, as opposed to it being stressful. I would highly recommend them for any event, they are an absolute must!!

    The absolute pros you want!!!

    We originally hired Richard & Tara before the pandemic and we finally tied the knot in July 2023, so we’ve known them for about 4 years now. We absolutely made the right decision hiring them. Richard & Tara were an absolute a joy to work with. They clearly know their business inside and out. They know exactly where to be at what moment and they work as a well-practiced team together to capture the best shots. Also, their cameras are whisper-quiet – I never once the whole day noticed the shutter sounds, which I think put me more at ease throughout the day instead of being reminded that every moment was being documented, and resulted in better photos! We...

    Would book them over and over again!

    I first encountered Richard and Tara when they photographed my friends wedding. Their professionalism and quality of work were equally as impressive then as it was for our wedding. When we had the opportunity to work with them personally for our engagement shoot, we knew we had made the right choice. They are both so fun to work with, it feels like you have two friends behind the camera instead of two complete strangers. Their guidance and instructions on how to pose helped out so much, since we are both so awkward when in front of a camera - they made us feel like models and knew they would capture our best sides. On our wedding day, we know...

    The absolute BEST!

    We cannot recommend Richard and Tara enough! They were hands down our absolute favorite wedding vendor! During our wedding day, there were a few minor mishaps, including transportation issues and one of our groomsman splitting his pants! Richard and Tara were not only incredibly flexible and easygoing, but they provided a needle and thread to sew the pants! We absolutely love every single photograph taken by Richard and Tara! If you're looking for a photographer team that's easy to work with, responsive, puts you at ease, and takes AMAZING pictures, then Richard and Tara are your people!

    Amazing, professional, and personable

    Richard and Tara are such a great team! They did my sister's wedding and mine. And they made sure every shot was perfect! I wasn't feeling well on the actual wedding day, and the pictures still came out flawlessly! And the turnaround was less than a week! If I were to do it all again, I wouldn't think twice before hiring them! They do not disappoint!

    Richard and Tara were the perfect team. Tara handled all of our business interactions and was incredibly on top of everything! We received all paper work promptly and great reminders about the upcoming event. On our wedding day, Richard was flexible, professional, engaging and easy to work with. We had a link to a blog including some highlights from our wedding on their site eight days later and all pictures 10 days after our wedding. The pictures are beautiful and Richard really captured everything we asked for. I highly recommend Richard and Tara!

    Richard and Tara were great! From the engagement session to my Grooms Gift boudoir session to the actual wedding, Richard and Tara were always available to answer any questions we had. Tara came to the boudoir session and helped me feel a little more at ease 'bearing it all' and offered great posing suggestions. They were both laid back but extremely professional and even got the always dreaded extended family photos done quickly and with little hassle. They offered numerous packages to fit anyones budget and I would recommend them in a heartbeat!

    I could not have been happier with picking these photographers. They were very professional, and they made things very comfortable. I never felt like I had a photographer in my face the whole night. I truly felt that I had my friends with me. They are extremely talented, and get shots that you normally wouldn't think of. I can't stop looking at my wedding pictures. And that means so much, since they are all that you have after your special day is over in the blink of an eye. I highly reccomend using this husband and wife duo.

    Cannot recommend more highly

    My husband, our families, and I could not recommend Richard and Tara more highly. We had an amazing experience working with them for our wedding. Richard and Tara were communicative, helpful, and professional. Starting with our engagement shoot, they made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. The photos for the engagement shoot and the wedding turned out PERFECTLY, and we received both galleries earlier than we ever could have hoped. One of the unexpected perks of working with Richard and Tara was their general wedding expertise--they talked us through the decisions of whether or not to do a first look, which family photo combinations to do, you name it! They made us feel super comfortable going...

    Amazing Experience

    Richard and Tara were amazing. They are super easy to work with and helped us organize our incredibly large family so we could get pictures of everyone. I wouldn't use anyone else. The pictures are fantastic! Absolutely amazing!!

    Amazing photographers!

    We loved working with Richard and Tara! They were fantastic to work with to get everything planned and organized for our wedding. Neither of us are huge photo people, but Richard and Tara made our engagement and wedding photos so easy. Richard and Tara sent all of our photos to us within a few weeks and we can’t stop looking at them! We also liked that a second shooter was included with the photography package.

    Thank you, Richard and Tara!!

    Richard and Tara are phenomenal! They were super easy to work with and helped us remove all of the usual awkwardness one may feel when taking posed pictures. Both of them were super responsive and we cannot believe how amazing the photos looked. We absolutely recommend this awesome duo!

    Cannot say enough wonderful things about Richard & Tara!

    We are SO happy that we hired Richard and Tara for our April 2022 wedding. They were so easy to work with and communicated well throughout the planning process, engagement photo shoot, and wedding day. Very professional and fun to work with. They took so many beautiful photos that we will cherish for years to come. We were also so impressed by how quickly they got the photos to us -- only a couple weeks after the wedding. I can't recommend them enough!

    Gorgeous Photos!

    Richard & Tara did our wedding day photos and I can not say enough good things about them. They were easy to coordinate with and work with. They captured all of the best moments of our special day seamlessly and flawlessly. We have more photos than we thought possible to choose from! I would highly recommend using them for any of your special occasion photos!

    The best there is!!

    Wow, where to start. There aren't enough words to describe how AMAZING this duo is! We are so lucky and thankful to have had Richard and Tara capture our special day! They made the happiest day of our lives even happier than we could have ever imagined. Their knowledge of having poses look so natural, the lighting, and creativity, is absolutely incredible. They are very professional but yet so comfortable and laid back at the same time. I have a complicated family and was worried how we would be able to get the family photos done. Richard and Tara made it stress free and was so professional and organized when it came to coordinating my family for the photos,...

    Photographer

    Richard and Tara are amazing!! They captured our wedding day perfectly!! All the pictures are so wonderful its so hard for me to pick which ones to blow up for our house! They are so easy to talk to and so sweet! They joked and laughed along with us while taking pictures and totally put us at ease! My husband hates taking pictures but they made him feel so comfortable by joking with us that his genuine smile shined right through :) They killed it! We had a very large wedding party and they handled it incredibly, they joked with us and got everyone to smile and look at them when needed! I could go on and on but...

    Working with Rchard & Tara for our October 2017 vineyard wedding was a great experience and our pictures turned out absolutely beautiful! They were wonderful with providing direction for the photos and everyone in our families and wedding party loved working with them. Leading up to the wedding, they were very helpful and accomodative and made everything so easy for us. They were extremely responsive and instrumental in helping us establish a timeline for the day that worked for everyone. Our pictures turned out to be absolutely amazing and we are constantly being asked who our photographers were . We would highly recommend :)

    We needed one more BIG piece of the puzzle to wrap up our wedding planning, the photographer. We decided to go with Richard and Tara. From the beginning of the planning stages to our staggered-day wedding to them being so accommodating, we knew we made the right choice. Richard and Tara were great communicators through the entire process. The special day was AWESOME! They got all of the important shots, cake cutting, toasts, dances. They also got shots of all of the guests just enjoying themselves and WE LOVE THAT! If you're looking for great photographers or thinking about these guys, make it happen. Thank you again Richard and Tara for making our special day memories truly great!
