Dave has done our pre-wedding and wedding day photo shoots.
He’s a gifted photographer who understands to capture the real emotions of the moment with tremendous creativity in his pictures. We’ve enjoyed the atmosphere during the shooting with him as he let us be ourselves instead of setting us up. That has made the results so natural and authentic as they are. Thank you for capturing those amazing moments in our life
with this scope of creativity!
Our shoot together was the perfect way to spend my birthday and commemorate our time in Shanghai. Thanks for the wonderful photos and memories! I can’t wait to display them back in the U.S.!
