    My wife and I couldn’t recommend Perry higher.

    “The X factor in photography is to be able to connect with the people you are taking photos of. Not only is Perry a highly skilled technical photographer - he has the X factor of a highly skilled relational photographer. He has an ability to pull your true self out in every moment. He directs you without being pushy, and you can tell he has thought out each moment of your busy and full day, to best capture the event. He is a joy to work with and can’t wait to find a reason to have him come do photos again!”

    Perry is authentic, relational, and filled with JOY.

    “My husband and I loved having Perry as our wedding/engagement photographer! He captured our day more perfectly than we could have ever imagined. Through the entire process, he conducted himself with character and professionalism. We had so many positive comments from family and friends! He made us feel confident and comfortable. Perry is authentic, relational, and filled with JOY. Just an all-around amazing, talented person. You will not be disappointed.”

    We 100% recommend him!

    “If you're looking for your wedding photographer, look no further! Having Perry as our photographer proved to be one of our best decisions we made for our wedding. His genuine enthusiasm and careful attention to detail made the day run smoothly and took a huge weight off our shoulders. Our family and guests still rave our amazing photographer! Perry captured the most important and meaningful moments so well, and we could not be happier with our wedding photos (and engagement photos)! It's so important not to just hire a capable and talented photographer, but someone who is sensitive to what is happening on such an important day, all the while being professional and fun. It's a tough combination to find, but Perry was that for us on our wedding day. We 100% recommend him!”
