One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is when I receive emails or reviews from my clients. I am also honored to have received the Brides Choice Award for 2011 and 2012 from Wedding Wire.

Below are a few excerpts from notes I’ve received.

“Your pictures of Danielle’s and Eric’s wedding are just breathtaking.
One more beautiful than the next. They look like they came right out
of a bridal magazine. I am so appreciative of your excellent work. You were also great to work with which made it really even more fun. I can’t thank you enough. ”

Eric’s Mom

“This entire engagement and wedding experience-you brought to life for us-from the first session of engagement photos to your attention to detail-to your wonderful partnership at the wedding. We are so very lucky you were available to help us and be there for us. A million thanks!”

-Karen Strickland-mother of the bride

“I just wanted to write and let you know that we received our wedding album yesterday and it looks amazing!

I want to thank you for doing such an awesome job. With your artistic vision, talent and timeless style, I know our photos will last a lifetime and provide so many wonderful memories throughout the years.

I was impressed by your professionalism and personality. You really helped make our wedding the day that we wanted it to be.”

- Mike & Sarah

“Once again, thank you for an outstanding, fabulous, wonderful job on our wedding album. We love it! It is so absolutely beautiful. We are so grateful to you for all you did to make our day special and for compiling an awesome keepsake album! You are truly the best! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”

- Thad & Renee Overby

“We just looked at the pics-some brought tears to my eyes-absolutely amazing the range of emotions you can convey through images. I’m impressed”
- Crystal Skillman

“Jen is our fifth child to be married and I am amazed by the creativity and stunning beauty of your photography. Each photographer has been amazing, but you far surpass the others. Congratulations on capturing Jen and Mike’s special day with such wonder!”
- Linda, mother of the bride

“Jim the pictures are absolutely beautiful!!! Thanks again for everything.”
- Kafi Zahra

“I cannot recommend Jim Colman highly enough! My husband and I searched through dozens of photographers before finding him, and I know we made the right decision. The quality of his photography is absolutely stunning. Every shot is so artistic and in perfect clarity. He is a true artist and it shows in each and every one of the nearly 1,000 photos he took for my engagement session, bridal session, and wedding day. He is also one of the friendliest, most professional, flexible and fun people you could ever work with. He could easily charge thousands more for the quality of work he does. When I was scheduling my engagement and bridal portrait sessions, he was willing to do them on any day and at any time to make sure we got the exact photos I wanted, and he didn’t mind at all that I had to reschedule several times due to rain and a wedding dress alteration that wasn’t done on time! He was great during the wedding and the reception – he didn’t get in people’s way at all, yet still managed to take amazing pictures of every momment both big and small. And to top it all off, all of my photos were ready less than a week after the wedding. I could not imagine having to wait months or even a year as is common with other photographers. Hiring Jim was the best wedding decision I made after deciding to marry my husband!”
- Stephanie Razzeto

“Just wanted to let you know how pleased Kenneth and I are with the photos you took at our wedding. A lot of people made some very good comments about them and how you well did with the intimate shots too. Thanks so much for your awesome talent!”
- Angelique Byrd- Hargrove

“Jim did such a great job. He made us feel so relaxed and everyone had fun taking these pictures. Somehow our time schedule for the day changed because our bridal party added a champagne toasts during our scheduled pictures. Jim was able to still get all the pictures done between events. He will make you laugh and let you take whatever kinds of pictures you choose. He was very responsive throughout my planning process. I am so happy we choose Jim as our photographer!”
- Shawna Haider

“Jennifer and I are amazed at what great pictures we have for our wedding. Thank you so much for an absolutely amazing photograhy experience and awesome pictures”
- Ben and Jennifer Park

“Those pictures were awesome! I really liked what you did to enhance the lighting. Everyone I showed them to were like WOW!!! you need to discard the previous photographers you wasted money with and rock with you and i totally agree!! ”
- Roshan Ham

“I just wanted to let you know that we got the wedding photos in the mail last week (they were waiting for us when we got home from our honeymoon) and they are absolutely fabulous! Tim and I were so happy with the photos – you did such a great job and we’ve received nothing but compliments on them! ”
- Danielle Clark

Danielle showed me the prints last night, and they’re every bit as impressive as the digitals. Thanks for the great work!”
- Tim Clark

“We just got back in town last night. Thanks for the quick turn around on the pics. The pictures are simply amazing!!! All of my family members have been calling me because they saw some pics on your website. Just looking at them online brings tears to my eyes. You did an amazing job.”
- April Morris

“Thank you for a job well done. I truly appreciate the skill you displayed in taking the photos for our organization. Your photography will enable Washington & Company to produce a superior marketing product. I was very pleased with the final product and you exceeded my expectation for this project.
Your excellent customer service and prompt response time made for a very easy and enjoyable experience. I am extremely glad that you were our photographer for this project. We could not have selected a better person for this job, thanks.”
- David Washington

“Jim worked with what was around us to create the best memories possible! Very open, flexible, creative, sometimes you didn’t know he was there to catch that moment yet he did! We asked around for photographers most said who not to go with we lucked out to find Jim! We are more than excited to say we truly highly recommend Jim’s excellent work”
- Kylene Bilderback

“Thank you so much for the (engagement) pictures, we were surprised at how quickly you were able to get them ready for us. We loved the pictures and found something we liked in each of poses we did”
- Paul Spychala

“Jim is amazing! Taking pictures was not the best part of my wedding day, because I’m not a person that enjoys being photographed. That being said, Jim made this event relatively painless, and the photos came out better than I ever imagined. I have never looked that good in pictures before! All of our friends and family were extremely impressed with the quality and artistry of the photos, and we’ve ordered LOTS of prints for our album. All-in-all, I highly recommend Jim Colman. He has a lot of high-tech equipment, and he was able to capture many special moments from our day.”
- Elizabeth Kuch

We received your photos last week and are so pleased with them! You sure work some magic! :) I have to say, I think my favorite sequence of photos were taken early in the session on the bridge when you told Kevin to try to kiss me and me to not let him. I really loved how those turned out. I have plenty of other favorites as well, and I am so glad that we used your talent for our engagement photos.”
- Annissa Beckerink

“Jim, I can’t thank you enough. You are just too good! I feel so lucky to have found you. And, such quick turnaround I can’t get over it. I just got my DVD today and am so excited :) You really did get some great pictures and I can’t wait to look through them with my parents.”
- Elizabeth Dalton

“Hi Jim. I got the pictures last night. I absolutely love them! Thank You so much!”
- Sarah Corr

“Jim Colman is a great photographer and was wonderful to work with. For the quality of photos, his price really is unmatched in the area. He turned our wedding photos around really quickly (we had the disc in hand about a week after our wedding) and he had them up on his blog only about 4 days after our wedding. I would highly recommend booking Jim for your wedding.”
