"MOST amazing photographer for weddings!"

Rich is hands down the best decision we made throughout the wedding planning process (aside from the decision about WHO to marry, of course ;) ). I felt comfortable and safe leaving my memories in his hands, and he did not disappoint. He was imaginative, directive, fun, skilled and a pleasure to work with. He saw shots coming that no one else did, organized everything ahead of time and kept the operations running smoothly. He was prompt about sending the images after our big day, and I felt like I was re-living each moment. He left nothing out, covered an amazing number of wedding guests and special moments skillfully and artfully. I can't even imagine what I would remember about the wedding without him.

Rich and his son Richie were such a pleasure to work with. In fact, it really did not feel like work, and rather that they were an extension of our friends and family. We are unbelievably thrilled with the photos, and photo albums that they compiled - we cannot stop reliving the joy and excitement of our wedding day. The Chapmans had done a few of our very good friends' weddings previously, so we knew we had a great team to work with, but they wildly exceeded our expectations. I am sad the the 'process' is over, but I am confident that I will see Rich and his family again covering more of our loved ones' weddings, and will likely reach out to him when we start expanding our own family - I hear his baby pictures are just as fabulous :)

My wife and I highly recommend Rich Chapman Photographers for your wedding! First off, they were extremely easy to work with right from the start. They clearly communicated what needed to be done and when he had to be done, yet they listened and fulfilled any of our requests. Rich and his son are truly passionate about their work and they both work extremely hard to capture the day. From the action shots to portrait shots, the quality of the pictures is unmatched with anything we have seen. Furthermore, they were hardly noticed throughout the entire ceremony and reception yet they were still able to capture everything we could have possibly wished for. Within a week after the wedding, we were able to see over 3000 photos from the day, as well as a video slideshow! They were extremely patient with us and very prompt with any of our post wedding requests as far as obtaining photos and making minor adjustments to any of the photos that we chose for our final album. Finally, the wedding album…words cannot express how happy and impressed we are with their work. The album is amazing! Without a doubt, the best one I have ever seen. It is true what people say, the day will fly by and there are too many moments for you to even remember. Make sure you capture everything through your photographer… so pick a great one. Again, my wife and I highly recommend Rich Chapman Photographers to capture one of the most important moments of your life! I promise that you will be blown away by their work.

"WOW!! Amazing Photographer! Highly Recommended"

Rich Chapman was the most amazing photographer ever! His great attention to detail, lighting, and special moments were spot on. Rich and his assistant and wife Penny, made both me and my new husband feel very comfortable from the very beginning at our first meeting. The day of our wedding, he was so graceful and did a wonderful job of catching all the little special moments that will be treasured for a lifetime. From the bridal prep to candid shots, to ceremony shots, to portrait shots, to detail shots, to reception shots, to romance shots, everything was perfect. There are so many great pictures that we did not even realize were being taken. We couldn't have asked for a better experience with a photographer. I have heard nothing but fabulous comments from friends and family that have seen the pictures as well. My husband and I highly recommend Rich Chapman for any special event. We couldn't be more satisfied with his service.
