Ken and his crew were awesome - very thorough and thoughtful. It was a great balance of them having suggestions and recommendations of different shots and ideas, but they also welcomed our ideas and requests too. It made for a great shoot and we're really happy with how the photos turned out. Ken is a top-notch photographer and a lot of fun to work with.

Kendrick and Jenni are such a wonderful team! We have used them for many photography experiences but one of our favorites was our wedding this past July! Ken worked so hard to produce such a wonderful memory for us and man ALL of the photos are amazing. Jenni also put together a special reveal and viewing of all of our photos in the studio which made the whole experience so amazing. If you are looking for a photographer who will listen to what you want and produce AMAZING images this is your go to team!
