David was amazing! He and I planned a secret photo shoot for my proposal to my now fiancée, and everything went perfectly. He helped me plan every detail, answered all my questions beforehand, and made sure the entire process went smoothly. The photos turned out incredible—he truly captured such special memories for us. David was professional, thoughtful, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!

David conducted a photoshoot for us after our recent engagement. He was professional, punctual, and detail-oriented. On top of that, he took excellent pictures, and we had a good time along the way! We're extremely happy with the results and would recommend David to anyone looking to get professional photos taken!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
We have priced our services to make them accessible to all potential clients. Because of our price point, we rarely offer discounts apart from reduced rates for non-profits, actors, musicians, and other artists.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Generally we meet prospective clients in person to discuss the details of their wedding. Contract signing may occur before or after this meeting. We provide the client with a shot list to provide them with ideas about images they would like to capture. We contact the client a week in advance of the date to confirm the information we have and to discuss any changes in plans.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
We attend relevant workshops sponsored by professional photographers organizations whenever possible. David received a Graduate Certificate in Photography from the Center for Digital Imaging Arts at Boston University.His primary second photographer also holds a graduate certificate from CDIA.
