    Must Hire Wedding Photographer

    There are not enough words to describe how happy my husband and I are with Wendy! We felt incredibly comfortable with her from the very first meeting with her. We feel like we just met another friend! She was extremely organized and kept us on a schedule during our wedding. Which was great because we had a larger wedding/bridal party and between her and her second photographer they handled it perfectly. She took the time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple, and she also made sure to take note of all the shots we wanted her to capture. The end results were amazing and we are so so so happy with them, and would book Wendy for anything we need in the future.

    Best Wedding Investment

    Highly recommend picking Wendy as your wedding photographer. Having her as your photographer is one of the best investments you can make. We requested information from multiple photographers but she was the ONLY photographer that actually took the time to get to know me and my husband. On the day of our wedding she was so easy and fun to work with! All of our wedding party enjoyed working with her also. We received our photos a couple of weeks after our wedding and we couldn’t be happier with them! She truly captured all of the emotions and special moments throughout the wedding! Thank you Wendy for capturing our special day!

    As the mother of the bride I felt so supported and had every confidence in Wendy. I was happy from the moment we found her. I have already scheduled another session for my other daughters graduation pictures. I would recommend her and I will use her again. Thank you Wendy!! We are thrilled with the memories you captured on one of life's most precious days.

    Wendy is absolutely amazing! From the moment I met her, I knew she was going to be the perfect photographer! She was so attentive. On my wedding day, she came early and was so organized. She took her time and it was clear she truly cared about my day and my pictures. My pictures came out so beautiful!! They were everything I was expecting and more. Wendy far exceeded my expectations in a wedding photographer and I will reccomend her over and over again!

    Wendy is absolutely amazing!! Finding a wedding photographer is not easy, but I could not be happier with our choice. Our ceremony took place outside after sunset. My biggest concern was being able to capture the ceremony, and many photographers were not confident in shooting with low light. Wendy did not hesitate, and she eased my concerns immediately by showing me examples of photos she had shot in low lighting. She did not disappoint!! I am so happy with ALL of our photos. Wendy and her second photographer Aaron were so wonderful to work with and helped the day go smoothly. They handled everything with such confidence and professionalism. We were blown away by the photos we received only 2 weeks later!! Wendy is the best at capturing such special moments!!

    Well, first you want someone who you immediately love their personality... Wendy was fun, outgoing, super knowledgeable. Then we sat down and and had a meeting with her, saw all of her lovely photos, experience and charisma of getting along with everyone. We had a super large wedding/reception over 300 people, a beautiful outdoor venue, and Wendy and her assistant were always on time, had the list in hand, and stayed true to what we wanted with pictures and decor.. and then some..love love love her and recommend her for future brides and grooms..

    We chose Wendy to be our photographer for our wedding a few months ago, and we were not disappointed at all! I was a pretty easy going bride for the most part, but the one thing I was especially picky on was our photographer since they would be the ones to capture all the special moments throughout the day. We had an engagement session where we got to get to know Wendy a little better, and she is such a sweetheart! We took our dog who isn’t quite trained for photoshoots, and Wendy was able to capture some amazing shots both candid and posed. We were so happy with them that we made them into a book for our guests to sign at our wedding, and we received so many compliments on them!

    Our actual wedding day was 107 degrees, and it was mostly outdoors, but you would never even know Wendy was working in that heat! She was such a hard worker the entire day and captured all our important moments. When my husband and I sat down to look at all the wedding photos, we realized how hard it was going to be to pick out “favorites” to print. I would 100% recommend Wendy to anyone who is looking for a great photographer! You will not be disappointed at all!

    Wendy is amazing.

    Seriously. She should be your photographer. I searched tirelessly to find a wedding photographer who is (most importantly) a person who has a natural eye for layout, lighting, and finding the best scene. My second most important criterion was value; we were working within a reasonable budget and found that we were being priced out with even the newest, most inexperienced wedding photographers.

    Wendy is the absolute best value, and she has the kind of natural talent that other people can only copy. She sees dynamic shots in every situation. She is also one of the friendliest and most welcoming people I've met, and that kindness makes it so easy to open up and have fun on your big day. She was happy to talk with my husband and I about what we wanted, but also made sure some of the basic shots that he and I didn't think of were included in our gallery. When our first venue had to cancel on us and we booked at a second venue that she hadn't seen before, she volunteered to come with us to scout the best areas to take photos. Our wedding photos are absolutely gorgeous, and I tear up just looking at them. She captured exactly what we wanted, and I cannot say enough good things about her. If you were unsure about who to book, I would happily tell anyone that you should pick her and you will be so incredibly pleased with your choice. Look at her client proof galleries on her professional website to see what I mean.

    Wendy is absolutly the best! I had been referred to Wendy by my coworker who used her for her wedding and has used her since for any and every photo shoot since. It was an amazing experience. Wendy is very professional and takes the time to make she you get exactly what you want. Plus we got our proofs back ASAP and much faster than she had estimated which made getting our holiday/thank you cards out. I can't wait to use her again in the future!

    Wendy is fantastic. My husband and I hate getting our picture taken and she made us so comfortable. The pictures turned out fantastic! As we got closer to the date she was always available for any questions or changes. I highly recommend her.

    An *amazing* photographer. Only issue was that it did take a bit to get photos back, but that was because it was in the midst of the heaviest wedding season in years. Overall, she truly knew how to capture the magic of the moment

    Working with Wendy was fantastic. I am a wedding photographer myself and i was very picky in whom to choose for my wedding. She was very responsive, well organized and very kind. The day of the wedding she was on time for every part of the wedding coverage and it was very pleasant to work with her the day of. And when we got the photos we couldn't be happier! we love, love, love the photos! She has a beautiful style. thank you Wendy! and we are happy to recommend you to anyone looking for a great wedding photographer.

    Choosing a wedding photographer is one of the most important decisions, it's a choice that will live on after the special day. After seeing Wendy's work and listening to her share some of the details that go into a great shot, I knew she would be a perfect match to shoot my daughter's wedding. Needless to say, she did not disappoint! Starting with the engagement photos that were stunning to the wedding, I could not be more pleased. Wendy was not daunted by our large family and was able to capture the traditional as well as the most unexpected shots. If you are looking for a creative and artistic photographer, Wendy is your choice!

    Wendy is such a wonderful, amazing, professional photographer! She was very fun to work with (and I loathe getting my pictures taken). Wendy went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and that she gave us everything she had! I'd go back to Wendy for all our family/event photo needs. She does it all and isn't limited to just weddings. Her style us versitile and you get exactly what you want!

    Wendy Hithe Photography did an absolutely phenomenal job from start to finish. I was totally in the dark about weddings having only been to one before. Not only did Wendy do a terrific job capturing every single important and precious moment of the big day, she helped guide me through what to expect, timelines, traditional pictures, her special take on what would look great, and things I wouldn't want to skip. All of the important details. She has a terrific eye for different angles and lighting. I was not interested in the traditional smile for the camera photography and she really came through with my vision. From scouting out the location way ahead of time to learning family names and relationships. She was easy to get a hold of, very organized and wonderful to work with. I was amazed at how prepared she was and how easily she was able to make everyone comfortable in front of the camera. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants their important days captured in a beautiful and unusual way.

    Wendy was absolutly wonderful! My husband and I are from San Diego and didn't have any recommendations for a photographer in the Sacramento area. I found Wendy on Theknot.com and couldn't be happier! She was very professional, pleasent, timely, realiable and most importantly--she takes beautiful pictures! I have gotten so many compliments on my photos and I couldn't be happier! There are so many good ones too, it has been hard to decide which ones frame and give as presesnts. And the best thing is, she gives you the rights to the photos so in the end, you can use the for any thing you want. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

    Wendy Hithe is AMAZING! We were so lucky to have her as our photographer. She is professional, talented and fun! When we did our engagement photos we thought that we were going to have to wait 3-4 months to get them back because thats how long some of our friends had to wait with their photographer.....we had our photos from Wendy in 2 weeks!!! When it came to the Wedding day she was fantastic!! She got every photo that we asked for and even some that we never even thought about!! Wendy took hundreds of photos and we LOVE every single one! Thank you Wendy.....for capturing our day in a way that no one else could!

    Love,

    Liz & Nick

    I hired Wendy for my wedding photography. I saw here work through a family member and fell in love with the different styles and natural beauty that she was able to capture. She traveled across country for my Florida wedding and was a wonderful person to work with from the first moment I met her. She was incredibly organized, she worked so well with all of the different requests from me and other family members, and captured very single moment I wanted and even the ones I wasn't thinking about or aware of. She was a complete professional and was able to do her job without being noticeable which I loved. I received my photos in a beautiful box very very quickly and was thrilled with the quality of the photographs. I would highly, highly recommend Wendy Hithe to anyone in search of something special.

    Wendy was amazing! She captured so many hidden moments of our wedding day and really helped stage some amazing photos of the location as she has a fantastic eye for framing and color. She put everyone at ease an email made the entire process a complete joy. Even though our wedding was almost 8 years ago I still find myself starting at all of the beautiful photos she took and one we blew up and framed and its been a fixture of our living room ever since! The only regret I have is that we moved to the east coast otherwise I'd totally use her for other services as she really is such a down to earth, genuinely nice but awe inspiring creative talent-- she is one of a kind!!
