I just wanted to say thank you for everything that you did on our wedding day. It has been a pleasure getting to know you, and thank you for taking the time to do so before the wedding. I was so comforted having you there on such an important day. I had another friend with me there! With several little mishaps along the way, you were the one person we hired that I felt completely confident in and didn't spend one second worrying about. I appreciate you so much! Thank you again!

I just wanted to let you know that each wedding Brandon and I have been a part of since our own, I am more and more thankful for the great job you guys did! I am so glad our day did not have to revolve around taking formal pictures! Thanks!!

Amanda Shanks, Bride

I have to tell you, I have never in my life seen better wedding pictures! You are so good at what you do and I couldn’t be happier. You don’t know how good it felt to have someone who I was comfortable with and someone who I knew really cared about what was going on.

You are wonderful and I am so glad you were there. I am going to tell everyone and their mama they have to use you!

Stephanie (Sims) Doyle, Bride

It was a pleasure to work with you on the Williams/Hill wedding. I was delighted to have a photographer who was on time, ready to shoot, and worked with the timeline for the day! As we all know in this industry, the bride is the most important person but you also made everyone feel included! The pictures are wonderful and I think you really captured the

day! I hope that we will get to work together again in the future!

Emmy Loyd, Peacock Events

As a bride, and a photographer myself, I knew that one of the most important things that I needed in a wedding photographer was someone that I felt completely comfortable being photographed by. As a bride, I knew that I would experience so much on my wedding day, and I wanted someone that I was comfortable enough around that I felt I could relax and be my truest self, and let that be captured on film. I knew that Neal could compose a good photograph, but what was most important to me, was that I trusted him and was comfortable with him as a person and a photographer. From my first meeting with him, to my bridal portrait, to my wedding day and beyond, it was very easy to interact with him, and felt very natural being photogrpahed by him. I would definitely recommend Neal to a bride-to-be, or anyone wanting to be photographed. He's consistent and gives you a range of photographs to choose from. He stuck with me throughout my whole wedding day and really captured the range of our experience on that day.

(Neal) was so easy to work with. One thing that several of us noticed throughout the night was the wonderful smile that he had on his face that night. He really enjoys his work. The quality of the photographs was extraordinary. We had a hard time choosing because all of them were fantastic. We hope to use Neal again when our other daughter gets married.

Jean Bloodworth, Mother of the Bride

As an artist and a designer, I had a very specific look and feel for my wedding. I knew that I needed a photographer who could really go with the flow, listen to what my vision was, and really capture the beautiful setting where we got married. Neal went above and beyond! He was completely professional through out the entire process and really impressed me with his knowledge and experience. He not only saw the big picture of my wedding day, but he was also very concerned with the little details and the small moments that make up my now memories. He was wonderful to work with, AND the pictures are gorgeous! Absolutely beautiful. Neal has an eye for some fantastic candid shots and he is really able to create some stunning artistic photographs as well. I would highly recommend this accomplished wedding photographer. He actually made my day even better.

Laura (Stone)Haselden, Bride

When my wife and I were planning our wedding, one of the most important aspects of our ceremony was the photography. Laura had known Neal for many many years and she was certain that he would fill our photography needs perfectly. While I had never met Neal, I deferred to my wife's heartfelt beliefs and better judgment. Laura arranged for a time to sit down with Neal prior to our wedding and go over her vision for our wedding. We drove down from Atlanta to Neal's studio in Macon and met with him to discuss our ideas. He listened to us with keen interest and took all of our suggestions to heart. Discussing with him what it is we had in mind was easy and, along with his experienced input, we left confident in our decision with full knowiledge that our wedding day pictures would be wonderful. When our wedding day arrived Neal was all over the ceremony and the reception taking pictures, but I don't think I ever actually saw him. His professional demeanor and grace permitted him to glide through the event taking pictures without ever actually becoming a part of the ceremony. All of our family photos and wedding party pictures that were taken before and after the ceremony were positioned with our preferences at the forefront. After only a week, Neal emailed us with the link to our wedding pictures. Laura and I were very excited when we sat down to look at the proofs online, at the time, however, we had no idea what we were about to experience. The pictures were magnificent, looking at them was like living the wedding and reception all over again. The angles from which he took the pictures, combined with their crisp colors and wonderful candid shots took our collective breaths away. We looked at the pictures over and over again that night, and for many more nights to come. When time came for us to order our wedding album it was extremely difficult to decide which pictures NOT to include because they were all excellent. For as long as Neal continues to take pictures, he will always have a client in our family. Thank you for capturing the essence of our special day.
