We had such a wonderful experience with Josh as our weddingphotographer! He was friendly, professional, punctual, and incredibly accommodating throughout the entire process.
When our wedding had to be postponed, Josh went above and beyond to honor our original agreement and work with us so he could still provide his services for our special day. We truly appreciated his flexibility and understanding during what could have been a very stressful situation.
We were so happy with our photographs! Josh did an amazing job capturing all of the important moments and details from our wedding day, and we now have beautiful memories that we’ll be able to look back on for years to come.
He was also very quick to communicate, which made the entire experience so much easier. We would absolutely recommend Josh for weddings, family photos, or any other photography needs. He is professional, reliable, talented, and genuinely goes out of his way for his clients. We are so glad we chose Josh to capture our special day!

Josh contacted me almost immediately after I requested the service and offered me an affordable price. The photos were good quality and he was able to get the shoot done quickly. He was patient and polite throughout the event, adding a bit of humor to make the event flow smoothly. I would have appreciated a little bit more variety with the poses and a method of sharing the photos that didn’t require family members to create a Google account. Overall, things went well and I think Josh is a great photographer.
