Nicole was our photographer and Jordan was our videographer. They did such an amazing job and did everything we could've imagined and then some. They had such an incredible vision for what would look nice and memorable and they knew exactly what to do to make sure we had everything we wanted to see to remember our wedding. They were amazing, and I would always recommend them to anyone who wanted to hire a photographer or videographer for any event. They nailed it in every way. More...

Dexter and his staff were so easy to work with leading up to, through our wedding and after our wedding. We met with him numerous times prior to the wedding including our engagement shoot with our dogs. We also met prior to the wedding and also spoke on the phone numerous times so that we were all on the same page for the wedding day. Finally we met with Dexter when the photos and video were completed and he even had presents for us. Our photos and wedding video came out amazingly and they captured all of the right shots. I mean this in a good way, you barely even noticed that they were there because they stayed out of the way, but then looking at the photos and wedding video, they were right there the entire time to capture everything. We would like to thank Dexter and his entire staff for capturing our wedding day so perfectly. I cannot thank them enough and honestly I would recommend Dexter to every single couple getting married. Thank you. More...

Our photographer was Becky. She did our engagement photos and they turned out wonderful! She also took shots of us girls getting ready on the wedding day. A second photographer went and took photos of the guys getting ready. We then had a first look, so we could have our fur babies in some pictures. Once at our venue, they were very creative with getting some very fun photos. They were very professional and very nice. They were also very easy to work with. More...

I cannot say enough about Dexter and his team! From our initial interview phone call to the closing phone call, everyone I dealt with made me feel that my day was unique and not just another "job" for them. Becky found amazing spots for pictures on a not-so- perfect day for outdoor pictures. The rainheld off long enough to get some beautiful shots with great views behind us! The video came out amazing! They captured every important peice of the day and put it together with an artist flair! I highly recommend hiring this vendor for any special day you may have! More...

Dexter and his team have 100% been awesome to work with. Dexter is super laid back but yet AWESOME at what he does- making you super comfortable to be in front of his camera. On our wedding day in the moments of the ceremony and reception you did not even know him and the 2nd photographer were there- staying out of the way while capturing every beautiful moment I am sure. The team was organized during wedding party and family photos that we had requested making getting photos down stress free and more efficient. Michelle was the second photographer and was great coming up with various ideas- her and Dexter worked great together to get multiple angles and adjust lighting to ensure the most perfect shots. Also Beach the videographer was awesome to work with- super creative in his work. Also the Photo Booth was a blast and our guests definitely enjoyed that it was great having the attendant there to assist and greet our guests- that attendant also was a great help during our first look to assist me in handling my dress and train :) I CANNOT WAIT to see my videos and photos!! Thank you so much! More...

We loved working with Dexter, Sarah and the videography team for our August, 2017 wedding at Windham Mountain. The pre-planning process was very easy. Day of, Dexter's team was right on time, making sure we got everything done on or ahead of schedule. They were very responsive to our feedback, making sure we got all of our special shots taken care of and listening with something didn't feel authentic to us. They did a phenomenal job of handling our very large families! After the fact the quality of the work has been great. Our teaser video is exactly what I had hoped for, and our photos are stunning. We had a truly perfect weather day, which was so perfectly captured in our mountain top photos. I was most impressed that despite some apprehension Dexter hopped on the chairlift for our mountain top ceremony! It was a lot to ask, and we are thrilled that he and his team came along for the ride. More...

Dexter and Sarah were wonderful - from the first meet, engagement photos, to rolling with the crazy weather on our wedding day.

They were extremely flexible and made some game time changes to accommodate the rain we had at the wedding. The professionalism is unparallelled, as it was seemingly seamless transitions.

We're only a few weeks after the event, but from the few teaser photos, I am BEYOND excited to see the rest!

We highly recommend Dexter and company to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Photos are what last forever, so choose the best!

We knew of Dexter from a sibling’s wedding and had seen first-hand his professionalism and beautiful photos he captured. We were in luck when we first contacted Dexter as his only available Saturday left in his busy wedding season was our wedding day, and we hired him during that first phone call. Dexter shot our engagement photos as well as our wedding day. He did a great job of capturing our special moments with incredible backgrounds, angles, lighting, and poses. His relaxed demeanor made us feel at ease instantly. Dexter is very professional and walked us through every detail from planning the engagement photo locations to planning out the photos and events of the wedding day. We’ve received all of our wedding photos and couldn’t be more pleased with Dexter’s work and the moments he captured that we will have forever. We highly recommend Dexter for your wedding day.

Dexter and Sarah shot our wedding on October 4, 2015. They were so easy to work with and really knew what they were doing. They found so many great locations at the venue to shoot in front of. We got married at the Glen Sanders Mansion, which is a beautiful location and Dexter made the most of the scenery. There was a random tree in the front of the building that I wouldn't have given a second look at, but Dexter used that tree during some of the shots to create a beautiful frame around us and those turned out to be some of my favorite pictures. I was really impressed with his attention to detail and ability to use the background like that. We just got our pictures back and they are absolutely stunning. We also hired Dexter for videography as a last minute add on decision because many people told us not to waste the money on video because they said we would never watch it. After getting the video back, I am so glad I didn't listen to those people. The video is absolutely awesome and definitely worth the money. Overall, Dexter and his team are really great and I highly recommend them! More...

Dexter and his associate, Sarah, were such a pleasure to work with. From our first meeting with Dexter, we loved his laid back personality and immediately felt comfortable with him. This was our first photographer that we met with and we instantly booked at the meeting. I had researched a lot of photographers before meeting, since it was such an important aspect to me. His pricing is extremely reasonable and his quality of work is top of the line, when comparing to others that I looked at.
Even though we hadn't had engagement photos with him, we instantly became comfortable during pictures for the wedding. He was able to keep us relaxed and we had so much fun with it that it didn't even feel like the camera was on us so much.

Dexter and his team were fantastic. I did a lot of research to find a photographer I liked, because pictures were a priority to us. We found Dexter and booked engagement pictures, our wedding and the photo booth for our wedding day, all for less than what the other photographers I considered cost.

The photo booth was a big hit, and made for a fun activity when our guests wanted a break from dancing, and we're glad we booked that as well.

Neither of us are super comfortable with having our picture taken, especially for hours on end, but both photographers did a great job of making us feel comfortable and we even had a good time!

Our pictures turned out beautifully - Dexter and his team captured moments that we will cherish, especially some candid photos that really do capture the joy of our wedding day! We are so excited to get our canvas and album from Dexter.

We used Dexter Davis' photography services for our June wedding on Lake George. Dexter and his staff have been easy to work with, from Dexter himself through our initial contact, to his associate photographer Kevin (who shot our wedding) and his office staff who helped to set up our online gallery and coordinate our photos.
Associate Photographer Kevin and his assistant Tommy were very accommodating, flexible and fun to work with on our wedding day. They took the time to find great locations around our venue for photo opportunities, both individual and group. Kevin and Tommy did a great job moving around the reception and capturing candid photos of our guests. They also made a great effort to capture all of our family group shots and couples photos for our guests. We were fortunate enough to have fireworks scheduled over Lake George on the day of our wedding and Kevin and Tommy took us down to the waters edge for a set of private shots with the fireworks over head.
Our photos from the day turned out great with a variety a photographic styles and great post shoot touch-ups.
Overall Dexter's team contributed to a wonderful wedding day and we could not have asked for a better service.

Thanks Dexter, Kevin and Tommy!

Dexter and his team are some of the best, most professional and fun people we have ever worked with. When we saw one of our friends' wedding pictures, we knew we had to have Dex. He has an amazing way of getting the traditional family photos and wedding shots, and combines it with the candid shots and angles that make amazing memories for a life time.

I am absolutely in love with my photos and all my family and friends said there isn't one bad photo in the 800+ we received. Dex knows all the little tricks of getting the right shot at the right time, and don't be surprised to see him climbing into bushes or on the ground to get the right angle! We had a rainy day for our wedding and you would never know it. And the only way you would is that he took some amazing photos with our reflection in a big puddle that came out stunning!

We also had one of Dex's photo booths, which are not your typical photo booths that fit only so many people and all you see are faces. We got to pick out our own back drop, and Dex's team of two other photographers came and used their "photo booth" camera, while 6 or so people all filled in with some hilarious props that they brought along. The 4x6 photos print out instantly and his team made sure everyone got a copy of them right there, one copy went into a photo album for us that we provided, and if people wanted them to be sent to them via email, it was done all at the same time. Plus, all the photo booth pictures were available right on Dex's website and were also included in the flash drive we received of all of our wedding photos.

We recommend him to all of our friends and family, and they're all still talking about how gorgeous our pictures are and how unique our photo booth was.
