Neal is one of my associate photographers who started out as my assistant working weddings for FREE with me back in 2021. Since then, he has grown in such immense ways that he is now my videographer as well as full time wedding photographer. He’s an absolute joy to work with and I’ve never heard the end of how much my clients love him. A true light on a wedding day full of so much talent. Whether you’re working with him for photo or video, you’re going to love your final product. All the photographs below were taken by Neal, and edited by Allison!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
