We had an amazing experience with Where We Wander for our wedding photography! They showed up right on time and were such a calming presence throughout the day—even when we ran behind schedule, they were incredibly accommodating and patient with our group. One of the most memorable moments was when they literally stood in the middle of a stream just to capture the perfect shot of us in front of the waterfall. The photos came out absolutely stunning—natural, romantic, and full of life. I’m so grateful we chose Where We Wander to capture our special day. Highly recommend!

Ron was so much fun to work with! He was super easy to talk to and asked questions to make sure he was capturing all the things we wanted. I’m keeping Ron in mind for future shoots and I’d recommend him to anyone!!

I hired Ron to photogrpah my proposal and I couldn't be happier. He captured the moment perfectly. We met at the planned location beforehand in order to plan the perfect spot for the moment.
