My fiancé and I got engaged recently on the beach and I booked a very last minute session from Ben the night we got engaged and Ben met us the very next day for the session. He was very professional, accommodating and also did a great job posing us as we’ve never had professional photos done. The pictures turned out beautiful!

This person is a complete scammer. None of the photos shown in their posts are real. I hired them for a photo session for my mother, and the result was an absolute disaster. The work they delivered was of terrible quality – I’ve never seen anything so poorly done. I would never recommend their services to anyone; in fact, I strongly advise avoiding them at all costs. This has been the worst photography experience of my life – a total scam.

Ben was great with the kids. Super high energy and overall great experience.

Ruby D.May 2024

It was clear to me that Ben is knowledgeable about photography and has the appropriate equipment. The photos came out lovely, and he worked with me until the end to get the best quality acting headshots. He was very patient.

Ben did a very fast turn around and the quality was very good. I got the image I needed for work.

Was not the best experience for me, unfortunately. Paid more than expected and most of the photos were not good. He was understanding when I explained but I know nothing could be done about it. Most likely won't work with this photographer in the future. This was just my experience , I did not receive all my photos but I'll accept that. It's a learning lesson for me.

Ben was such a blast to work with and made my family feel comfortable with his fun yet professional personality. He coordinated great positions for 8 people, took requests on shots my family wanted, and was finished in an hour. He did a fantastic job sectioning us for multiple sets of various groups and partner photos and was flexible with taking professional or candid shots. Impressed with his price and the photo outcomes!! Would highly recommend!

Janet S.Jan 2020

Ben was amazing, he was able to capture awesome shots of a group of 24, ranging from 20 months to 88 years. His upbeat personality and sense of humor made us all comfortable, resulting in very natural photos. Thanks Ben!!

Ben was super nice and very responsive when i was looking for a photographer for my engagement photos. He took really nice shots that were similar to the styles i wanted from Pinterest. We originally planned to take our photos at a location we really liked that he recommended but then that park was occupied last minute with a Halloween event. So he suggested another place nearby which was even gorgeous! We love our pictures at the end. :)

I am not a fan of getting my picture taken. However, the 14 yo picture I had on my website and business profile wasn't cutting it anymore. Ben was super responsive to my inquiry. He was easy to work with and set up time with and open to suggestions on location and ideas. Once I got there he just had a way to make things really relaxed and dare I say, fun! Pictures turned out great! Thanks Ben for taking away my nerves and capturing my personality and openness.

My family decided to have last minute pictures while we were in town and we sent Ben a message and he was extremely flexible and responsive. He has great customer service and let us schedule and reschedule with little notice due to bad weather expected. His photos were amazing. He asked what we were looking for before we met so the shoot was very smooth, especially important when lugging a baby around the beach so he wouldn’t get messy before pictures. He captured some of the most amazing pictures and easily connected with my stuffy hubby who hates family photos. ;). We are super happy and can’t wait for another shoot in the future when we have our entire family in town. Thanks Ben for making this happen for us with only a day notice!

We researched about 10 different photographers. Ben completely stood out from all of the others. He was the most responsive, the most enthusiastic, and had an amazing attitude and energy. He truly had an expertise and gave incredible suggestions and tips that led to some amazing pictures. He went above and beyond through the whole process. He even scouted out days before our shoot to find the perfect place and time for our pictures. Due to his diligence and passion for his work, we have some amazing memories and photos we will be forever grateful for. He made the experience easy, exciting and stress free. The day of the shoot he took charge with ease and instructed us what to do to get the best shots. He is very talented and I’m so happy I chose him to capture some great shots of our family.
