Ben is simply amazing! From start to finish, he went above and beyond to capture every special moment of our day. He was incredibly easy to work with—communicative, professional, and genuinely kind. From our initial consultation to the wedding day itself, Ben made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. We were blown away when he sent us preview photos the same night of our wedding, and we received our full gallery just two weeks later. The photos are stunning and truly reflect the joy and emotion of the day. We can’t recommend Ben enough!

Hire Ben! I had the best experience with Ben Straily as my wedding photographer. He was so nice, organized, and professional. Even the engagement photos were spectacular. He was so great to work with and even helped me with my vail and tangled necklace - lol. He gave me so many photo options and really captured all the moments of my special day. He went above and beyond. I wish I could post all his photos of that day.
