It’s hard to know where to start when you have such an amazing experience with someone. First off, if you haven’t done so already head over to Dave’s website and take a look at his photo galleries (www.davebellenphoto.com). The work speaks for itself. However, there are always other factors to consider when using a photographer. I can assure you that Dave will not let you down at all. He and his wife were incredibly easy to work with and we cannot say enough good things about them. They showed up the morning of our wedding at the house (where the bridesmaids were getting ready) and immediately got to work. Dave and his wife Madeline (who assists Dave while he takes pictures) knew the best places to take pictures and had several wonderful ideas for pictures. I want to say that if you choose Dave and Madeline that you are not only getting a photographer but also people you can count on to help direct your day or fix any unexpected issues that come up along the way. When my flowers arrived soaked Madeline sprung into action and helped us sop them up. When the groom and best man nearly destroyed one of their boutonnieres goofing around Madeline helped pin it back together. Out of all of the vendors, we spent the most time interacting with Dave and Madeline and I couldn’t imagine having anyone else as our photographers. All of the photos are amazing whether they were outdoors, during the ceremony, or during the reception. Everyone looks amazing and we have way too many “favorites” to count. Another thing we absolutely loved about Dave and Madeline is that we didn’t even know they were there during the reception (this also included the videographer we hired through Dave). We had a choreographed dance routine during our first dance and Dave stayed completely out of the way but still caught some amazing shots of everything. We never imagined dancing as much as we did during our wedding and we know it was because we didn’t have to worry about our photographer pulling us off of the dance floor every ten minutes. Despite this we still got all of the important photos such as parents, grandparents, bridal party, etc. The last item I will touch base on is the combo package Dave offers. You can purchase the services of a photographer and assistant for the entire day as well as a videographer (Shawn) for the ceremony and reception for a price you cannot beat. All of the pictures taken (we received over 700) are completely yours and you receive them in digital form. Thank you cards, albums, and prints can also be ordered directly from Dave. I HIGHLY recommend getting this package even if you’re leery of the video. This package is competitive with what photographers charge for pictures alone. At worst you can put the DVD away and never view it. We had a lot of amazing moments during the wedding that we can’t wait to relive with our friends and family. Shawn did a fantastic job capturing our event. If I didn’t hire a videographer I would immediately regret it the next day. To sum all of this up, Dave was an amazing photographer and you will not regret hiring him for your wedding.
