We hired David for our wedding in October of 2020, he was communicative, kind, and very professional. He always responded to my questions in a timely manner and helped me with forming the best timeline based on the light that would be available that day. Due to a medical event he was unable to actually be at my wedding but he let me know immediately and secured a backup that he works with often and shoots very similar to him for me so I did not have to panic. He did the editing of the photos so I still got that style I loved. He made what could have been a very stressful situation go smoothly and

Professional, personable, creative, talented, and reasonably priced... I cannot say enough good things about them. I just received a lot of the photos back from my husband and I's wedding and they are spectacular!! I am seriously the most non-photogenic person ever and they captured all the right light, veiws, and angles that make me feel and look so beautiful! They took SO MANY pictures and didn't miss a single moment. THANK YOU D COLEMAN PHOTOGRAPHY!

Harmony. Thats the only word I can think of to appropriately describe my wife and Is experience with D Coleman Photography. When we met David in May, I was immediately sold by the creativity in his portfolio. My wife and I knew we made the right decision after working with him for our engagement photos - but he found a way to set the bar even higher on our wedding day. The care, detail and dedication that he and his wife, Sarah, poured into our day was beyond incredible. They helped capture the highs of our day and did not miss a single moment from preparations to our goodbyes. When David

David and Sarah are the best! We absolutely love our wedding photos! We were scared to hire a photographer because photos were the most important thing to us. David made us feel comfortable. He met with us to go over his work/style and answered all of our questions. He is very professional and his pricing is reasonable. The quality of his work is breathtaking and we honestly couldnt have picked a better photographer. Sarah was on top of everything during our wedding and was very detailed oriented. We cant thank them enough for going above and beyond for our wedding. We highly recommend D
