Add ReviewJoe and his assistant photographer, Brian, were both so great to work with! They made us both feel comfortable during our wedding, and we knew the photos would turn out well - which they did! Joe was very professional and knew exactly what to do as the wedding progressed throughout the evening. Some of the most candid moments were the best shots of the night. He has a great eye for capturing the special moments. We would definitely recommend him for your big day!Report
Among the work of dozens of photographers I considered for my wedding, Joe's photos were the only ones that stood out to me. The photos he took of our wedding day are nothing short of magical, and I have had almost every guest reach out to say how incredible his work is. He clearly has a wealth of experience - his photos are absolutely stunning and perfectly capture the moments of our wedding that we want to treasure forever. Joe himself is a pleasure to be around, and I don't think it would have been possible to enjoy any photographer's company more. His assistant, Richard, was also delightful, and watching the two of them work together added a dimension of fun to our day that we really appreciated. I could not recommend Joe more highly for any photographic occasion, and I can say from experience that having him document my wedding is probably the best decision I made in the planning process.Report
I'm not even sure where to begin! Joe Payne is an unparalleled talent, and the work he and Brian did to capture the essence and energy of our wedding day was BRILLIANT. He is a master of his craft, a delight to work with, and a creative genius. Our wedding day gallery is simply perfect, and it is a true gift that we'll be able to look at our photos and be transported back to one of our happiest days via Joe's lens. I want to work with him again and again! Thank you, Joe and Brian!!Report

I am speechless! From the start, Joe made a point to connect with me and my husband, to learn about us as individuals and us as a couple and our view for our wedding! He took time out of his busy schedule to chat over the phone and to meet in person to ensure our weekend went beautifully! His eye for detail is unlike any other! The way he is able to capture the raw emotion gives you more than a collection of photos, it gives you the story, bringing all these moments to life! I am so thankful to have worked with Joe and his team!Report
