The best! Hands down!
If you're on a budget and want to capture all the feels of your wedding day, you won't be sorry choosing Seth & his team at Celestial Waves Photography! Their communication was active, punctual, and receptive throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was quick, creative, and incredibly helpful - they truly lived their vision and took some incredibly creative shots that beautifully captured the special moments of our wedding day. We couldn't be happier with the results and highly recommend Celestial Waves to any couple looking for an affordable, talented photography team to immortalize their big day.
Graduation Photos and Photoshoot for fun!
Seth is the best you’re going to get!! He did my high school graduation photos and perfectly captured the idea I had in my head. I reached out a couple months later for a cool feel good idea that he was totally down for! Seth is amazing, he lets your idea come to life, he never pushes, and only corrects when he knows he needs something photography wise. He’s great for those who know what they want and need a collaborative partner for it!!
