We had gotten quotes from multiple photographers and Stan's photos stood out amongst them all. Not only were the quality of his photos above and beyond what we had hoped but his pricing and professionalism were unmatched. Not to mention turn around time and responsiveness. I would not hesitate to use him again.

Wow! What an AMAZING experience! We hired Stan for a wedding ceremony and couldn't be happier. His work is PHENOMENAL. Clearly takes pride in his work. He arrived early to scope out the location and had a vision for each shot he took. He took charge and directed us into what he believed were the best photo opportunities (and they were!). He had a very quick turnaround on top of everything, which I attribute to how great his original shots are, requiring little if any editing. Would absolutely hire him again in the future, and can't recommend him enough.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Stan for our engagement photos and it was a great experience! We felt very comfortable throughout the entire process from start to finish. Stan understood our vision and executed all the photos perfectly. The turnaround time for the photos were fast too! We will definitely work together again in the future.

We highly recommend Stan and would work with him again! Unfortunately, Thumbstack will not let us select all 5 quick rating responses.
We hired Stan for our Boston City Hall wedding photo shoot. The ceremony was supposed to be quick and we wanted a photographer who knew how to work the area and if not could figure out ways to capture the short moments as much and as best as possible.
Stan was very quick to respond when we engaged. While it seems like he has few engagements, we looked past it because his portfolio showed great composition, mood, and lighting skills. We were not disappointed. Stan is quite creative and finds ways to work with the subjects and the surroundings.
He was punctual, did his research of the area, and showed up 30 minutes before we did to scope the area for the day. During the photo shoots, he was very active in directing us to the best angles and also engaging with us to see if we had ideas.
Often running ahead and moving from angle to angle, you could tell he was dedicated to producing good work. Stan had some locations picked up including some he thought would be an interesting shot to experiment with and it all turned out great. We would have spent the whole day taking pictures with him but unfortunately, had dinner plans right after the wedding.
We enjoyed the photo shoot and working with Stan and couldn't recommend him enough. He is probably one of the best on the platform! Attached are some examples of the work that he produced.

When shooting with Stan he was very clear on his vision, posing, and took us to several locations. The photos he took turned out so stunning! Even though I saw his amazing work online, I still was blown away by how beautiful the photos he delivered were! I cannot recommend him enough!
