TESTIMONIALS

Hiring Donovan was the best decision I made for my wedding, besides selecting my groom, of course lol. I’m a photographer enthusiast so I figured I could ask someone I know with a camera and could get them edited to help the budget but nope these pictures came out so much better than I expected. I have sooo many pictures to pick from. I am extremely happy with the shots, the edits, the time it took to deliver them, his patience and attention to detail. He was and is worth every penny. Thanks Donovan for capturing every detail for us to remember a lifetime.

TESTIMONIALS

I found Donovan on WeddingWire and instantly fell in love with his photography style—and he absolutely did not disappoint! He arrived early to scout out the location, making sure everything would be perfect, and even stayed later than he was contracted to ensure he captured every special moment. To top it all off, we received our photos the very next day—and we LOVE every single one of them. Donovan is professional, talented, and truly goes above and beyond. I highly recommend him!
