Reviews

This is a collection of letters, emails, notes and reviews that I have received from not only many of the Brides and Grooms I have photographed but also from some of their family and friends. I thank them all for taking the time to write them.

We are so happy we hired Louis to photograph our wedding day!! From our first conversation, he was extremely professional and clearly experienced. We had confidence that he would be able to control the situation through our list of family, bridal party etc photos as well as capture many authentic candid moments, which was a big priority for us. We recently received our photos back (exactly on the timeline that was originally promised) and he did exactly that!! In the lead up to the day as well as throughout it, Louis was very easy to work with. He arrived for our pre-wedding photos when we were running behind schedule – he jumped right in and was able to capture impromptu getting ready photos & a bridesmaid first look, even though that wasn’t in the original plan. Following that, with the time remaining for photos, he made sure we got back on schedule and efficiently captured all the combinations we wanted, while keeping a relaxed & easy going demeanor. Louis had an amazing creative eye for different backgrounds, poses & photography techniques that resulted in some unique and memorable shots! We really enjoyed working with him and especially love how he captured the emotion of all parts of the day!! For many of the candid moments he captured, we didn’t even notice he was there! We would absolutely recommend Louis for your wedding day photography and would love to work with him again in the future. Thank you Louis!

Louis was an absolute pleasure to work with! He had such an easy-going personality and knew when to fade into the background and captured some amazing candid shots. We couldn’t be happier with our photos from both our engagement shoot and our wedding day!We highly recommend Louis as well as the second photographer he brought, Mark. Both of them helped make our wedding day special and took photos that we will look back on for the rest of our lives. Louis is very quick with turnaround as well. We had a few photos only a few days after and all the photos (almost 3,000!) less than a month later. We can’t recommend him enough!

Louis Schroder is an incredible photographer and made our wedding day easier knowing we could trust him to get all the pictures we wanted. He is very flexible, driving out to our requested spot for engagement photos and changing his contract even at the last minute as the missus and I flip flopped on the hours we wanted. He is extremely creative as he has a keen eye for great backdrops no matter where he is. He is very clear and instructive for more structured photos while still making them feel candid. For the actual wedding day he also needed no instructions as he is very experienced on what any couple would want to remember from their big day. He is also very patient as he helped organize our families for photos and helped guide me and my wife when we have no experience with photography/lighting/etc. Louis is also extremely friendly, helping my wife and I feel calm and safe like we were just getting some pictures done by a friend. He is also skilled at the post production of photos to really bring the life and tone to each photograph. We can’t say enough good things about him and we’re so glad we were able to find him! From one couple to another, the wedding day is stressful and busy so getting a good photographer like Louis will really help you to relax and just enjoy the day like you’re supposed to!

I could not be happier with our choice of Louis as our photographer!! We have been married just over a month now but have had all our pictures delivered couple weeks ago, and there is not a single one that we hate! Louis is so knowledgeable, our first call with him really made our choice easy. I was worried that since we opted to not do an engagement shoot that the day of might be awkward meeting for the first time but Louis is so clam and relaxed and I think our pictures show that. He listened and remembered a few requests I had which I really appreciated. If you are thinking of hiring Louis I would say absolutely do it!!

Vicky & Felix (Married 03-23-23 at Crystal Plaza Livingston. Review posted on Google)
Louis was absolutely amazing from start to finish. He took such gorgeous photos. He had great ideas for different photo ideas and used the space amazingly. I’m so glad we decided to go with him for our wedding day.

Fred & Jenny (Married 12-18-22 at NJ National Golf Club. Review posted on Google)
Louis is a very professional and creative photographer. We are extremely pleased with the photographs from our wedding.

Hannah & Neil (Married 07-30-22 at Florentine Gardens. Review posted on The Knot and Google)
We loved having Louis as our photographer!! We hired him after he photographed my sister’s wedding and we saw what a beautiful job he did. Louis is so easy to work with and had great ideas for pictures for us as a couple, as individuals, and with our bridal party. Plus, he was great at capturing the scene and fun everyone was having! We are so happy with our wedding photos and are so thankful to Louis for his quick return and amazing talent to help us remember our special day!

Brittany & Steven (Married 06-18-22 at Alice’s Lake Hopatcong. Review posted on The Knot)
Louis was very professional. He was very quick the respond during the planning process to answer any questions and assist with setting up the time line for such a busy day. He was punctual and made us very comfortable in front of the camera! He’s dedicated to getting the best shots and finds some really great spots for a photo op no matter where the location. He made sure we stepped outside of our reception for less then 5 minutes to catch the golden hour for pics and honestly those were our favorites! Highly recommend!

Nora & Manny (Married 06-02-22 at The Mansion at Mountain Lakes. Review posted on Google)
I can’t say enough about Louis. He is extremely professional and fantastic at his craft. He is super personable, energetic and engaging. He made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the experience. Highly recommended him for your special moments.

Amy & Bryan (Married 11-11-21 at Bear Brook Valley. Review posted on Google and The Knot)
Louis was amazing to work with! He responded quickly and was easy to set things up with for every step of the wedding planning process. Having to reschedule due to covid was seamless with Louis which I can’t say the same for other vendors. On the wedding day he was so friendly, got amazing photos, gave great direction and after the main photos we didn’t even notice he was there! We got our photos back so quickly and they were perfect! I couldn’t recommend Louis more!

Alyssa & Chris (Married 10-21-21 at Woodcliff Manor. Review posted on Google and The Knot)
Louis was an absolute DREAM to work with!! He has such a wonderful way of photographing that I loved. It was like he wasn’t even there, but his photos proved that he was everywhere! We had 2 photographers, which essentially gave us hundreds and hundreds of photos at every angle. He made us laugh and truly enjoy the process – even our families noticed how wonderful and attentive he was! I HIGHLY recommend his services

Abigail & Chris (Married 10-15-21 at Basking Ridge Country Club. Review posted on The Knot)
Louis was amazing!!! His prices were fair and he was good at communicating with us. We got a sneak peek the morning after the wedding which was awesome to wake up to. Then we got all 1,800 of our photos back in 1 month. It was faster than I was expecting. He was great the day of the wedding… around enough, but not in the way. He made sure we got the shots we wanted and had good time management the day of. Would definitely recommend!!

Alicia & Ben (Married 09-25-21 Review posted on The Knot and Google)
Louis was the perfect fit for out wedding. He has a great eye and a broad style for any type of wedding. We wanted traditional images and some fun art-style photos and he was able to do both. A bonus for us was that he still uses film for some shots and gave us that vintage wedding feel we love. Louis is very patient and great with those without modeling experience. His turnaround time was excellent and we will cherish our photos. Would recommend 10/10 5 stars

Monica & John (Married 09-21-21. Review posted on Google)
Schroder Photography is great! Professional photography with prompt service. Used them for our wedding. Would highly recommend.

Goivanna & Scott (Married 08-21-21. Review posted on Google and The Knot)
Louis was a dream to work with for our intimate at home wedding. After reading dozens of reviews and visiting his website that showcased stunning wedding photos, I knew that I had to speak with Louis to get a true feel for his style, personality, and experience. Within five minutes of our conversation, I felt confident that Louis was genuine, loved his work, listened well and was responsive to all ideas and questions, was humble yet proud of his abilities and would make my husband and I feel comfortable on our wedding day. While I analyzed his wedding photo gallery looking at the type of photos he takes, my husband only had one request for our photographer: no cheesy corn balls. Our phone conversation proved without question that Louis is NOT a cheesy cornball. 🙂 We spoke, e-mailed and texted before our wedding and went over details, timelines, important people and photos that we would like taken the day of, and he specifically asked for shots that we would like taken. I asked him if he could take a silhouette shot. He immediately sent me silhouette photos that he’s taken and asked if that is what I had in mind. He nailed it! On the day of our wedding, he arrived on time and immediately checked in with me to take some getting ready photos, took detailed pictures in our backyard, and seamlessly drifted around the house capturing big and small details. Once I was in my dress and ready, he gently guided me as he shot the most magnificent pictures. He utilized natural lighting, angles and poses that made me feel more beautiful than I have ever felt in my life. My husband and I had a perfect first look that he orchestrated before our ceremony. The photos showcase our emotion perfectly. We had a private photo shoot afterwards where he took pictures that were both candid and traditional. He has such a natural way about him that helps him get the shot he’s looking for while also making my husband and I feel completely at ease. We took all of our bridal party and family pictures before our ceremony as well. He arranged these photos efficiently! He quickly and miraculously got everyone to look and smile at the same time! Once our ceremony began, he somehow managed to drift into the background and took photos from every angle imaginable. There were countless pictures that I did not realize he took as I had no idea he was in so many inconspicuous positions. Following our ceremony, my husband and I had another photo shoot that was so relaxed, so much so that he even snapped a pic of my husband picking something out of my teeth. And he did it in black and white! We joined our cocktail hour where we took many quick photos with family and friends while Louis also took candid shots of all of the important people we talked about before our wedding and anything and everything that caught his eye. Our reception was under a tent outside and as it started to rain, it did not slow Louis down. He still took gorgeous pictures at night despite the rain. Our guests adored him. Our other vendors raved about him and asked for his contact information. My husband and I are so grateful that we have the photos that he captured to treasure for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Louis.

Louis is nothing short of amazing!! He has been an absolute pleasure to work with, especially with all the shifts and changes in our plans that have occurred over the past year in a half. Louis was more than accommodating and always available for us throughout the entire process. Let’s not forget that he is also an excellent photographer. The photos that he took were breathtaking, imaginative, and creative which we will cherish for the rest of our days. Louis has surpassed our expectations and we were so glad that he was our photographer for our wedding!

Caitlin & Chris (Married 08-07-21 at Tim McLoone’s Supper Club in Asbury Park. Review posted on The Knot)
Louis was amazing to work with throughout the whole planning process. On the wedding day, he showed up early and was able to keep everyone on schedule. He made sure that we got all the shots done before the ceremony as I requested even though hair and makeup were running late. He was able to manage family, the bridal party, kids, and even our dog. The pictures came out amazing as well. We are very grateful for Louis!

Megan & JB (Married 07-05-21 Review posted on The Knot and Google)
Louis and Schroder Photography were phenomenal to work with on our wedding day. I came across Schroder Photography when searching online for a wedding photographer; I was drawn to Louis’s style – capturing candid moments. In browsing his site, I was impressed with the advice and information he makes available to those seeking a wedding photographer and felt like I already knew who he was by his content. From the beginning, Louis was professional and friendly, grabbing a coffee with my husband and I to discuss what we were looking for in a photographer and giving us the opportunity to be able to see his personality first hand – I was keen to hire someone that I felt could blend in with the party. We knew he was a perfect fit for us and we couldn’t be happier with the results that came from hiring Louis.

Louis is beyond flexible, creative, timely, and a just an all-around pleasure to work with. During the wedding, if we wanted to capture a shot with friends or family, Louis or Andrea were there. Louis was also great at finding moments to quickly pull us away to capture more intimate photos and fulfilling our wish list of nightfall photos outside the venue. Following the wedding day, he had preview shots ready for us so quickly and the full collection ready as promised by. And, I must say, there are so many fantastic photos and favorites to chose from. Louis and Andrea did a great job not only capturing us but also capturing all of our guests as well. You cannot go wrong with Schroder Photography for your wedding photographer! Check out the website and all his recent work to see for yourself—one of my favorites is us lounging on the red booth with my feet kicked up 😊

Kimberly & Ben (Married 06-12-21 Review posted on The Knot and Google)
Louis was awesome to work with, we used him for both our engagement and wedding photos! He has such a creative eye and our pictures turned out fabulous- will love looking at them for years to come. Highly recommend!!

Jessica & Anthony (Married 06-06-21 at Maplewood Golf Club. Review posted on The Knot and Google)
Where do I begin??? Everything he did was more than I expected for the price. Professional is an understatement. He was very responsive in both communication and our needs/wants for our special day. We got the rights to our photos which was so helpful when it came time to Christmas gifts. 🙂 Above all else, he was patient and accommodating.

Our original date was 7/14/19, but chose to postpone for personal reasons. Rescheduled for 7/19/20 and had to postpone yet again because of COVID. We were finally able to make it all happen 6/6/21. He was prompt and was not intrusive at all. Even only a couple months later I still love looking through my pictures, especially some of the best shots of my niece and nephew who stole the show! The moments captured are now timeless and all the candid photos are what we specifically asked for and he beyond delivered. We could not be happier! Thank you Louis!!!

Mary & Joe (Engagement Session 05-16-21 Review posted on The Knot and Google)
[Update since our wedding day] WOW. Can’t explain how much we love our wedding photos!! The photos really capture the day beautifully. I love how he got some beautiful candids, but also was able to manage the posed photos after the reception quickly and efficiently. And of course, he and the second photographer were easygoing, nice and great to work with. I highly, HIGHLY recommend Louis and his team!

===

Louis took our engagement photos in Central Park two Sundays ago. We had a great time, and the pictures were stunning!

Louis is friendly and professional. My fiancé and I did not feel overly-posed, and Louis did a fantastic job of capturing our essence as a couple. I enjoyed his more naturalistic style.

Quick turnaround to get the photos, and they were not overly edited.

Thanks Louis, can’t wait to work with you on the big day!

We are IN LOVE with our engagement photos that Louis took. They came out in a beautiful, naturalistic style which captured our personality as a couple, and the natural beauty of our location. My fiancé and I were looking for someone we could get along with, since we’d be spending so much time with him on our bit day. Louis was the perfect match! Louis is friendly and professional, and has a “light touch”—that is, we didn’t feel overly posed or uncomfortable. He did a great job capturing us at our best.

Erin & Brian (Married 10-10-20 Review posted on The Knot)
Louis was great to work with. We did one of his shorter micro-wedding packages for 4 hours which was the perfect amount of time. Louis was able to capture all the important moments of the day! There were also 5 dogs in attendance at the wedding and he did a great job working with them and got some awesome candids of them with their owners. Our photos turned out fantastic!

Ashley & Michael (Married 08-15-20 Review posted on The Knot)
We used Louis for our wedding in August. At that time, things were just *starting* to *slightly* open up a bit from Covid. We opted to continue with our plans and had our wedding inside the church with a limited guest list and our reception completely outside with a tent. Wedding planning during Covid was no joke but Louis was very professional throughout the whole process (even checking in throughout to see if we were keeping the date or postponing) and truly provided an amazing experience! Our parents had commented on how sublte he was throughout the day yet he seemed to be everywhere all at once! The photos came out beautiful and months later I emailed him asking for an edit to a photo so I could use it as a Christmas gift and he was kind enough to do that for us. The photos came in prompt with a couple sneak peaks leading up to it which was also very exciting as we waited. I would also like to add that we had a LARGE bridal party. 10 adults on each side then 2 flower girls and 2 ring bearers. Louis handled the large groups like a pro and really kept everone relaxed and having fun during the group shots. Truly a great photographer, very professional and a very kind person! Louis, thank you for all capturing all of the special memories that made our day so great! We truly appreciate you!

Tina & Stephen (Married 01-19-20 Review posted on The Knot)
We booked Louis and Alex for our Jan 19th wedding and they were great from the start! Louis is friendly and takes his time with you, listening to your preferences and taking the time to understand you and your style! He met with us in person to make sure we all felt comfortable together and listened to all of our ideas! Our wedding day turned out to be pretty cold with some recent heavy snow but we wanted some outdoor pictures and they pulled it off like pros! Can’t say enough good things! THANKS LOUIS!!

Nicole & Michael (Married 11-17-19 Review posted on The Knot)
We could not have asked for a better photographer! Louis was warm, professional, funny, and just “got us.” We cannot recommend him highly enough. He helped us stay organized and got absolutely BEAUTIFUL shots. You can’t go wrong! Thank you Louis for being so amazing and being a part of our special day.

Amanda & Franklin (Married 11-02-19 Review posted on The Knot)
Louis did a fantastic job! We hired him to do our wedding a few weeks ago. From our first meeting he was easy to work with and had a great portfolio. His prices are VERY reasonable. He also suggested the use of an assistant photographer for not much more money and we were glad we did. They worked well together to get everything done and made sure to take specific requested shots even in the chaos of the day. I even gave him a list of the shots that same day and he made it happen (though I suggest you do this in advance to save yourself stress). We are in love with our photos and the job he did.

Maggie & Tom (Married 10-25-19 Review posted on The Knot & Google)
Louis was fantastic and took amazing natural shots. I didn’t want a lot of posed photos but the ones we did take, he caught every second of our reactions together and showed beautiful moments captured in time. He was very out-of-the-way and we didn’t even realize he was there. Highly recommend for your event!

Nayra & Ted (Married 10-11-19 Review posted on The Knot & Google)
Louis and Alex did an amazing job capturing our wedding! They were so easy to work with and made sure everyone was having a great time throughout the day. Our photos were STUNNING! I ended up making several collages because it was impossible to select only a few to put up in our home. Louis was spectacular from start to finish. I went into my wedding day confident that he would be a fantastic photographer and he certainly delivered!

Dina & Jeff (Married 10-05-19 Review posted on The Knot)
I wish I could give more stars. Louis is a true professional and a pleasure to work with. He was unobtrusive yet got all the key shots. He efficiently worked his way through the family photos while making everyone relax and even have fun. I highly recommend him!

Stephen & Jing (Married 09-22-19 Review posted on The Knot & Google)
“What an amazing experience! The bride & groom were living in China until just before the wedding, so I (M of groom) had to make most arrangements. Louis was patient & professional about having to wait for answers from the other side of the planet! Louis was recommended by a friend, and I will owe her FOREVER! Louis & Alex were “everywhere” but never “in our faces”. They got beautiful shots & we didn’t even know they were there for the candids. The pictures are gorgeous. He was wonderful to deal with. This was by far the easiest part of planning the wedding. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better! LOVE YOU, LOUIS SCHRODER!”

Eileen (Mother of 09-14-19 Groom Review posted on The Knot)
Louis Schroder beautifully photographed our son’s wedding day. Tender moments and celebratory ones each artistically reflected in the images. Louis perfectly captured each emotion of the bride and groom, family and friends throughout the day. From the bridal party getting ready to the end of the evening dance floor celebration and all the special moments in between. Schroder Photography must also be commended for professionally remaining invisible at the same time.

Victoria & Ryan (Married 09-14-19 Review posted on The Knot)
I just received my photos from Louis and I am IN LOVE. They are gorgeous and got all of the incredibly special moments for us. As well as the ridiculous bits that are so funny and fun. Brings me right back to the day, it’s an indescribable feeling to have it captured so perfectly. The day of, they were great and really made sure we got what we wanted in terms of family and friend pictures. They also just kept snapping pics, so the shots in between the poses ended up being some of my favorites! Louis also made sure to get so many pictures of our guests and I can’t wait to share them with everyone! There are SO many photos, it makes me so happy, seriously what a dream. Oh, also, FAST turnaround! Wedding was Sept 14, got previews on the 25th and all of them on October 5th!!! I was so nervous about hiring the right photographer, but Louis was the first vendor we booked when we were planning and I’m so thrilled we did

Stephanie & Nick (Married 03-15-19 Review posted on The Knot & Google)
Having Louis as our wedding photographer was hands down one of the best decisions we made. We got married at the Madison Hotel in Morristown, NJ this past March. Louis was so easy to work with – even during our first phone call he immediately made us feel like we’ve known him forever. It was such a relief to have a professional wedding photographer who had experience shooting at our venue. He was very reasonably priced, has a ton of experience which shows in every single photograph he took, and was very responsive. We didn’t do an engagement shoot as we opted for a second photographer instead, and we didn’t regret the decision. The day of our wedding, Louis and his assistant took many photos from different aspects and from both sides of the family. Honestly, we didn’t even realize Louis and his assistant were taking photographs for the majority of the day. They got some great action shots that my partner and I didn’t personally witness – it was great having these photographs to see how much our family and friends enjoyed our wedding! Our sneak peak was given to us approximately a week after our wedding, and all of our photographs (definitely well over 1,000 photos) were given to us within a month and a half. If you’re looking for a photographer who is professional, reliable and overall a genuinely great person with a clear passion for what he does, Louis is your guy! P.S. – Louis is the only photographer I have seen that offers 3D photographs. Trust me when I say this is definitely something you should consider adding onto your package! My partner and I were hesitant at first since we didn’t know how a 3D photograph would come out, but once Louis explained to us the process, we were hooked. Our 3D photographs came in a beautiful wooden box carved with our names and wedding date. It is the perfect thing to have on our coffee table and is a great conversation starter. The 3D photographs made me feel like I was reliving our wedding day all over again. We would 100% recommend Louis to our friends and family and will definitely use him again for future photo shoots!

Jenna & Tim (Married 06-28-19 Review Posted on The Knot and Google)
First time we met him, he gave us a perfect example of his method for taking photos. Responds to email as soon as possible. He is warm and welcoming. He fixed a closed eye photo for us right away when we reached out to him. Photos look amazing. He does a great job capturing the right background and using the right lighting. Photos are completed within three weeks of the wedding. He offers great packages.

Valerie & Abdy (Married 06-02-19 Review Posted on The Knot and Google)
Louis was absolutely amazing! He performed my engagement photos and wedding photos and they came out absolutely amazing. He was always super helpful, very approachable and easy to speak to. I highly recommend him to everyone. We received our photos back within a month after the wedding. Louis is very knowledgeable and anyone who hires him is lucky to have them as their photographer.

Anna & Peter (Married 06-13-19 Review Posted on The Knot and Google)
Louis was so easy to work from beginning to end. Our family & guests commented on how he gently posed us to make the most out of the shots. Not pushy nor rude and never invasive. He was always where he needed to be but never in your face. Professional, accommodating & creative. He was an absolute delight & we loved the final product! One of the best decisions we made for the wedding!

Will & Caitlin (Married 05-17-19 Review on The Knot and Google)
Loved our photos–Louis was helpful in pre-planning, flexible with us on the day of, and we’ve got a wonderful variety of photos from our special day.

Jovan & JT (Married 10-07-18 See preview here)
Louis & Alex were the absolute best for my wedding this past weekend in Asbury Park at Tim McLoone’s Supper Club. They were so friendly, professional and eager to ensure we got all of the pictures we wanted & more. My wedding party & family loved them both and truly enjoyed working with them. We could truly see how much they love what they do and how much they wanted to capture all of the love throughout my day. You will not be disappointed!

Matt & Ethan (Married 09-30-18)
Louis and Alex did a fantastic job photographing our wedding at the Conservatory at the Sussex County Fairgrounds. From our initial contact with Louis through receiving the full set of photos (only three weeks after the event–very quick turnaround!), Louis was always responsive, attentive, and helpful. We chose Louis because his photos looked natural and well-lit, and his website showed that he captured some great candid moments. We also appreciated that Louis had previously photographed at the venue and was comfortable working with a same-sex couple. We booked Louis for 8 hours on the day of the wedding, and our package included a second photographer (we did not opt for an engagement shoot). We spent the first hour or so doing a mini-shoot of just the two of us, followed by an hour or so of posed family photos. We provided Louis with a list of family photo combinations, and we appreciated that he got through the list efficiently. Louis and Alex spent the rest of the time photographing the ceremony and reception. They were friendly to our guests and the photos came out beautifully. Louis and Alex managed to take really great photos without being intrusive or disruptive, which we very much appreciated. We could not recommend Louis more highly.

Marcy & Eric (Married 09-09-18 See preview here)
Louis and his assistant Alex, photographed our wedding in September 2018. It rained on our special day and deep down I was upset about the rain and concerned about how the photographs would turn out. Both Louis and Alex were so reassuring and they definitely did not disappoint! Louis and Alex delivered such beautiful and romantic photos. I am so glad that we picked Schroder Photography to photograph our wedding day. I highly recommend!

Juliet & Juan (Married 08-03-18 See preview here)
Louis was so easy to work with before, during, and after the wedding. It is clear that this is his calling based on speaking with him, meeting him and seeing him in action, and of course seeing the end results. Our pictures came out amazing and he caught so many that I didn’t even know he was taking. Highly recommend. Thank you Louis for being so good at what you do!

Heather & Alex (Married 08-25-18 See Preview here)
Louis was absolutely amazing and a pleasure to work with. A great professional, he knew what pictures would look the best and made sure to capture of all the important moments. Any pictures that we requested to be taken were taken. We have seen some of our pictures as posted on Facebook, as they were put up the same day, and they were amazing and breathtaking. I can’t wait to see the rest of the pictures! I highly recommend Louis to photograph any event as he was amazing. Should I ever need to hire a photographer for any event, I will be calling Louis. Thanks for everything Louis!!

Ryan & Quinton (Married 07-07-18 See Preview here)
Louis did a fantastic job capturing our wedding at the Princeton Chapel and the reception at the Boathouse at Mercer Lake. We got great shots of all of the family combinations, and were able to take pictures at all of our favorite spots around the Princeton campus. Louis was very accommodating to requests for additional photos and combinations, and had a good eye for positioning people. He suggested having two photographers, which ended up being a great decision, as we got a lot of candids and different angles, especially at the reception. Overall the photos wonderfully captured our special day, and were well worth the money.

Christine & Dave (Married 06-23-18 See Preview here)
So great working with Louis! Not just a photographer, but an artist. We have so many beautiful pictures capturing our most special day. Let me also mention that we had a bridal party full of kids, and he managed to connect with them so naturally. They still remember and talk about how cool Mr. Louis was.

Marilyn & Chris (Married 05-06-18)
We are so happy we picked Louis to be the photographer at our wedding! He was pleasant from the very beginning and forthcoming about the entire process. I definitely wanted the wedding to be as laid back as possible, which we talked about beforehand so that everyone would be on board. Louis and his assistant were super friendly and were able to take tons of candid shots. We got lots of positive feedback from guests about how “the photographers stayed out of the way”, which isn’t always the case. The pictures came out wonderful and captured even the smallest details. We got the photos back within a month of the wedding. We truly appreciated everything and would highly recommend Louis to anyone in need of an event photographer! 🙂

Courtney & Robert (Married 04-07-18 – See Preview here)
Best decision ever made. Of all our vendors, Louis was the easiest and best to work with. From the first phone call I got the sense that Louis would match our personalities perfectly, laid back and fun (with the exception of my bridezilla moment 15 minutes before the ceremony, which was captured hillariously). I don’t know how he physically did it, but he caught every moment. Some of my favorite shots are of the kids being 4 year old kids. Crying, wandering off, in time out… Louis got them. My husband and I are known for NEVER looking good in the same photo at the same time, but he got those too. I can’t say enough about his professionalism. The week before the wedding we had a phone call in which he assured me the forecast would be wrong and it wouldn’t snow 4-6 inches on my wedding day, while everyone else was reminding me of their weather policies. The day rolls around and it starts to flurry, but it stopped just about the second Louis walked into the room (early). An hour later we got 60 and sunny. That’s the kind of positivity I appreciate in a person, let alone a vendor. There was never any pressure to do anything we didn’t want to do, and I am so grateful for that. It was truly the best day ever and I am so glad we got our top choice photographer to make sure we remember it for a lifetime. Thank you Louis!

OMG!!! AMAZING!!! Louis was fantastic!!! He was great to work with!! Whenever I would email him before the big day, he would respond, and we had a phone conference the week of the wedding to finalize all plans. Louis and his assistant, Alex, were not only on time, but they were early to arrive!!! Louis was so easy going, and his assistant Alex was fantastic too!! Louis and Alex took such great photos, ones we didn’t even know they took!! I have been part of wedding where the photographer tried to steal the show, but Louis was the complete opposite!! I didn’t even know he was there sometimes taking photos! They were so approachable and any photo you wanted, they took!! My mom has a big family so she wanted a photo of her and all of her cousins. Louis staged them all during the reception with chairs and height order!!! Truly amazing and great!!! Louis also had such a quick turn around, we got our photo LESS THAN A MONTH after our wedding!!! Truly amazing!! I plan on calling Louis when we have children to do our kid portraits, and any other family event or anything that needs a photographer in the future!! Louis was also very affordable, and allowed us to build our own package!! I can’t say enough nice things about Schroder Photography!!! Thank you Louis and Alex!!! We truly love everything you did, and every photo!! We love you both!!!

Louis was the first vendor we booked for our wedding because well.. photography is the way you’re going to look back on your beautiful day! It was SO important to my husband and I to have an amazing photographer for our special day, and we were never worried once we booked, met, and worked with Louis. Louis was referred to me by a friend down in Maryland, and we did an engagement session with him about a year before our wedding (with our two dogs too). He made us feel so comfortable, understood our style, and captured amazing, natural, and artistic shots. Once we saw the engagement photos, we knew we had booked a winner for our wedding. Louis is always easy to communicate with, accessible, professional, on time, and reliable. He captured beautiful shots on our wedding day, we were just thrilled getting all of the amazing photos back. Louis was even able to capture some amazing, once in a lifetime shots with our two dogs at the wedding with us, family, friends, etc. We also had a very large bridal party 20 total, and Louis was able to coordinate great group shots and photos effortlessly, as well as amazing candids obviously. If you want a true professional with an amazing eye for capturing your beautiful moments on your special day.. look no further!!!

Samantha & Mike (Married 10-26-2017 – See Preview here)
Louis and Douglas were fantastic. Louis called about a week before the wedding to discuss the details and to make sure he knew what exact moments I wanted captured. I emphasized wanting to see the reaction on my husband’s face as I walk down the aisle and he and Douglas managed to capture that as well as my walk down the aisle and the images are more perfect than I could have asked for. I also did a first look with my dad because my husband and I chose to do the traditional “first look” with my walk down the aisle. We discussed over the phone how exactly that would go and it was beyond perfect. Family pictures were fantastic, all the most important moments at the ceremony were captured as well as the reception. We are blown away. He even pulled us aside during the reception to take us outside because he found the perfect photo opportunity. Which means while we were all having fun inside he was walking around outside to try and go above and beyond. Those pictures are some of our favorites now. He was very attentive throughout the night. He caught on to certain”groups” of people we had at the wedding either a group of coworkers, a group of high school or college friends and we got nice group shots of all of them. I honestly could go on and on but I know I would run out of room. We seriously cannot believe how much we love our wedding photos and we owe it all to Louis and Douglas. I would recommend Schroder Photography to anyone for any occasion. We will probably use him again in the future for occasions we have down the road! Thank you Louis and Douglas!

Megan & Dan (Married 10-07-2017 – See Preview here)
Highly highly recommend Schroder Photography! Louis was so professional and fun to work with. He called me about a week before the wedding and came up with all of the timing (first look, family pictures, etc.) so that we could get all of the shots we wanted while barely missing any of the cocktail hour/reception. He was very organized and really moved our large wedding party along during pictures so that we were all in the right place at the right time. The photos are extremely high quality and you can see how much effort he put into them. I was thrilled to see pictures of all of the guests and even of fun moments that I didn’t know happened! I sincerely recommend him- you can put your total faith in him to photograph the day in a way that captures all of the big moments as well as the little details beautifully.
I decided on the package with two photographers (the second photographer was Alex and he was excellent as well) because this allowed them to get several angles of key moments.

Brandy & Mike (Married 09-30-2017 – See Preview here)
Louis was the BEST decision we could have made in terms of hiring a photographer for our wedding! Our wedding took place in Asbury Park, NJ, at the end of September, but we live in the Washington, DC area. He made the long-distance planning process very easy and stress-free. From the beginning phone call with Louis, we knew we would love his work and his ability to not only do the planned pictures that are associated with weddings, but also capture the candid moments creatively — and that is exactly what he did! We also did an engagement session with him, in which he did a great job incorporating our dog (who was also in the wedding ceremony) — and it is evident he loves working with both people and animals. We also received comments from guests (and we agree!) that he somehow managed to stay so low profile that it was like we didn’t even have a photographer there ((but he captured ALL of the most perfect pictures of the wedding and even photos of our guests)). We left for our honeymoon the day after our wedding and he sent us the picture preview link that day so that we could see some pictures before we left! Then, we received the full set of photos less than a month after our wedding — his timeliness and professionalism was so very much appreciated. The pictures turned out so amazing that we are going to have a hard time of which ones to print and hang up in our house. We highly recommended Louis and we’ll definitely recommend him to family/friends and use him again in the future for anytime we need professional pictures.

Olivia & Bryan (Married 09-10-2017 – See Preview here)
My (now) husband and I had no idea what kind of photos we wanted or even what to expect. So when we told Louis to take the reigns on this we were stunned at not only on his level of professionalism but how artistic he was with photos. He truly but our minds at ease knowing we had a true artistic professional behind the camera. 100% reccomend him!

Emily & Zach (Married 09-09-2017 – See Preview here)
I could not of been happier with the whole process of booking and using Louis as a photographer. He was able to capture the moments that we will forever remember and the ones that we did not get to see. I love action shots and nothing too posed and Louis did just that. He gave me a wedding album that my friends and family cannot stop talking about. He was fun and communicated with us and it was great to have him as a guest and professional at our wedding. We had a photo-booth and he took pictures in there and I thought that that was hysterical. My husband and I are so thrilled with the turnout of our photos. His style is very fresh and bright and that is what I love. I love that he has the photos on film as well and I cannot wait to see the final product. Thank you Louis for capturing our wedding and giving us a forever beautiful and fun memory.

Kate & Dan (Married 08-25-2017 See Preview here)
Amazing pictures! We love them!

Danielle & Marco (Married 06-10-2017 – See Preview here)
Louis was great! We were planning our wedding from out of town and he was very accommodating with Skype meetings and working around our travel schedule for our engagement shoot. He recommended that we do engagement photos and I’m really glad we did, we were able to meet him in person and get a little more comfortable being photographed. it made that portion of the wedding day much less stressful. We had two shooters for the wedding which worked out really well; my mom was worried about how many pictures we’d have because she said she never noticed the photographers but we have tons of amazing photos! Louis and Alex were unobtrusive while still catching all the important moments and tons of awesome candids! We’re very happy with the quality and selection of the photos we received and can’t wait to see our album. thanks Louis!

Devon & Mike (Married 04-29-2017 See Preview here)
Shame on us that it’s been almost 1 year since our wedding & we’re just now writing a review for our AMAZING photographer! Louis & his assistant, Alex, were so much fun yet professional to work with. I seriously couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. He worked within our timeline & our itinerary and made suggestions accordingly to ease my crazy bride-stressed mind. Louis captured our day perfectly from my ridiculous gestures to each precious & candid moment including our officiant running late to the ceremony! He came with a variety of cameras, including “old-fashioned” film (LOL!) ones to create unique feelings for each image. In addition to a wonderful photographer, he’s the best secret keeper! I called him to inform him of a surprise for my husband-to-be & told him I needed him to get that moment because I knew I wouldn’t remember & he delivered perfectly. He also delivered our full set of pictures within a month from our wedding & emailed us one of the film pictures just days after while we were on our honeymoon. I 100% recommend Louis & if I had to do it all again, would pick him in a heartbeat! I totally recommend the Engagement/Ice-Breaker session. It gave Mike & I the opportunity to get to know Louis & his style & gave him the opportunity to get to know us & our personalities. It took away the awkwardness of having someone following you & capturing the intimate moments that you want to remember. And, because we had this time, before our wedding, Louis felt like a friend rather than just one of our vendors.

Gina & Casey (Married 01-2016 See preview here)
Louis was simply amazing! He did our engagement and wedding photos and both sessions were so unique and creative, my husband and I loved every single picture! Louis is amazing to work with, and the final product of his photos are beautiful; each shot was so perfectly finished. If you are looking for a photographer to capture the special little moments of your wedding, with candid shots that show the true emotion of the day, then Louis is the photographer for you! I cannot thank him enough for all of the amazing photos and memories of our special day!

Amanda & Chris

Noelice & Sean (Married 04-2016)
Picking a photographer for the wedding was probably one of the most important things for me. I wanted someone who would capture the excitement, love, and joy the day would bring and Louis did all that and more! His pictures were gorgeous and he captured everything that I had wanted! From day one, when I submitted my inquiry, Louis made the process so easy – he told me about the special he was having at the time, allowed me to make adjustments to my package, and just kept me informed throughout the process. When it came close to the wedding, we met and discussed the details and again – Louis was professional and so easy to work with. My husband and I had a few ideas for pictures but it was Louis who really helped us fine tune our vision and also helped us realized the timeline of our day and expectations.

Stephanie & Stan
I don’t even know where to start when it comes to reviewing Louis Schroder and Schroder Photography because there truly aren’t enough good things to say about him-We were more then impressed!!! From the minute he walked into our venue to the minute it was over, he had us all at ease and i as the bride was comforted knowing that i was going to have the photo’s every girl dreams of! The photo’s he suggested we take and the candid’s he captured had all of us talking from start to finish. Even my husband who HATES getting his pictures taken said that Louis made it feel like a walk in the park. My one bridesmaid could be heard screaming up and down the hallways “LOOK AT THIS SHOT HE’S TAKING!!! THIS GUY IS AMAZING” and all my guests commented on his work. One guest who already had her wedding stated at the end of the night “i wish i could re-do my wedding and have Louis as my photographer”- i think that speaks for itself! He managed to capture all the magical moments and then some and you would not have even known he was even there. We have started to receive our previews and i have had chills looking at them, they are just SO perfect. I would not choose anyone but Schroder Photography!!! thank you SO much Louis!! you truly have an amazing eye and we cannot tell you how much we appreciate your work. ANY event we have you will be first on our contact list!! Stan & Stephanie Frankenfield

Kaitlin & David (Married 05-2016)
Louis was excellent! He was so professional and took amazing pictures. He got so many wonderful pictures and my husband and I are so happy with how our pictures turned out. He really captured our wedding day perfectly. I can’t recommend him enough, truly a great photographer!

Jen & Kanwar
Louis and Alex managed to be everywhere and capture every moment without being in the way. The shots they took captured the essence of us at our best. Truly magical.

Sara & Ryan (Review on The Knot sent 01-11-16)
If you are looking for a photographer who will capture all of the candid moments of your special day without even knowing he is there, look no further! I can’t speak highly enough about Louis’s professionalism. My husband and I barely even knew he was there all day. When we received our photos it was apparent that he was there and took into consideration all of our photo requests. Our pictures were a perfect balance between traditional head on photos and more unique photos from different angles catching all of the candid moments happening around us. My husband and I can’t say enough good things about Louis. We highly recommend him.

Sarah & Guy (Card sent 01-05-16)

Marina & Derek
Louis was a true professional – prompt, skilled, courteous and did exactly what we asked for. I have been in a few weddings since our big day and have witnessed some disastrous photographers so I appreciate our choosing Schroder Photography to capture our most special moments even more than I originally had. Love the quality of our photos and would recommend to others.

Krystel & Tom (email received 10-22-15)
We received the album last week and just wanted to thank you! It was beautiful! Each layout was so well thought out and really represented our style. We will forever cherish the day and are grateful to have the memories. Thank you, thank you!

WOW!!!!!!! We cannot thank you enough, the photos were even better than we had ever hoped for! Each photo is better than the last. Honestly we’re a bit speechless!
(Review at Wedding Wire)
I wish I could give Louis more than 5 stars! We were impressed every step of the way working with Louis. He was flexible and accommodating, really heard us when we said what we wanted and made everyone feel at ease on our wedding day. Louis never made us feel on the spot or super posed, everything was really natural and he captured all of our favorite moments- and what was really amazing is he caught them all without us realizing! And most importantly- the photos were even better than we had hoped!! We could not have asked for more. Truly I could not recommend him any more highly!!!…

Wow. These are fantastic. You were like a photog-ninja at the wedding. I never even noticed you running around the church, and yet everything seems to have been covered from every angle. And again, brilliant at catching all the real moments between posed pictures. We couldn’t be happier.

Kate & John(05-31-14 Wedding)

Louis,
I just have to say the album u created is amazing. It all flows so well and it’s fun to see little surprise photos faded as backgrounds. We could not be happier! You did such an amazing job at the wedding and now this final product just reaffirms that fact. We hope all is well with you, I’m sure busy season is approaching! Xoxo Kate

Alecia & Andrew(07-25-14 Wedding)

We just picked up the album last night. It looks fantastic…. Thank you so much. We love it!

Tessa & Geoff (Married 06-02-13 See Blog Post “Maritime Parc”)

We had a great time working with Louis and his team! He was super laid back but managed to direct our family during all the group shots – not the easiest thing when nobody listens and it’s 100% humidity…haha. He was great with taking candid shots (what we really wanted) and also for capturing the sunset!

We found his rates to be very reasonable and we realized it was an even better value since he was so easy to work with.

Chrissy & Justin (Married 10-06-12 See Blog Post “Stanton Ridge Golf and Country Club”)

We were up until 2am looking through our pictures- they are beautiful!  Everything we wanted and more! I just want to thank you again for all your amazing work.  After our engagement photos we knew we chose the right person for our wedding pictures and I didn’t have to worry at all.  I think you were just about the only thing I didn’t worry about all day, and that meant the world to me!  Thank you so much!

Jessica & Darren (Married 11-11-12 See Blog Post “Lakeside Manor Wedding”)

Louis, Thanks again so much for capturing our wedding! The pictures came out more than amazing and I am so excited to see our wedding album. You captured moments with out us even noticing you were there. I cannot thank you enough for everything.

Thank you so much, Louis!!

I’ve just looked at some already and they look great!  You take such amazing photographs – it’s unbelievable how you seem to be everywhere at once.  You captured so many details.  I know my family is going to be very excited to go through all of them (we wanted to get some photos framed as Christmas gifts, so it’s perfect timing!). We truly appreciate all of your time & talent with this.

Kelly & Bill (Married 09-29-12 Reception at Short Hills Hilton)

Nora (Married 08-12-12 See Blog Post “Dancing Away at the Liberty House“)

Planning a wedding can be extremely stressful, especially when you live 2,000 miles from your wedding location. For us, choosing our photographer was easy. Louis was recommended to me by a friend, and I was immediately impressed with his talent and skill. He was flexible, friendly, easy to work with, and responsive to all of our photo ideas. I was even more impressed with him on our day of. We worked him, dragging him around in the summer heat to capture the ambiance of my wedding venue, Liberty State Park, and the NYC skyline. He was visable when I wanted to grab him for pictures, but blended in during the ceremony and intimate moments. He made my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera and he made me feel beautiful. We just received our photo previews, and they are absolutely amazing. I have only seen 10 pictures and I could not be more excited to see the rest. The way in which he captures special moments is truly an art. I would highly recommend Louis Schroder for any of your special occassions. Book him NOW so that your memories will last a lifetime, just like mine.

Brenda via email, July 5th, 2012

Louis,
The album arrived yesterday and it is absolutely beautiful. Thank again for doing such a wonderful job photographing our memories of that day. The pictures you took will truly be treasured forever. Thank you.

You are truly gifted & I want to thank you from the very bottom of my heart for capturing this important day in my life, in a way that is so special & magical. I hope you always stay in this profession so that you can make a million other families as happy as you have made mine. Sherri

Louis, I just finished looking at the proof’s for Kristen and Mike’s wedding. They are absolutely beautiful!!!I always tell my kids that I love weddings because they are such a wonderful celebration of the beginning of a brand new family. Not only did you capture the love that Mike and Kristen have for one another, but you truly captured the JOY that everyone at that wedding was feeling.I can’t thank you enough for the memories that will last a lifetime.Roseanne – Kristen’s Mom

We honestly could not have chosen a better photographer for our wedding. Louis was so kind and professional. We just got our photos and can’t stop looking at them because they are absolutely breathtaking. His use of lighting is amazing, and he was truly able to capture the entire day through his photos. We can’t recommend him enough! Thank you so much Louis! Heather & Christian

Allison

Louis Schroder was the best choice that we could have made for our Wedding Photographer. My husband and I got married on a sunny Saturday, October 8. Like most guys, He hates taking photos, but Louis made it fun and comfortable. He was professional and responsive to our ideas and suggestions. When he was photographing us, he played a lot on shadows and lighting, making the pictures appear so artistic and beautiful. The preview that he has shared with us are so amazing – we can’t wait to see them all! Thanks Schroder Photography for capturing our most important memories! Highly recommend!

Karie (Married 06-25-11 See Blog Post “Jersey Country“)

Not only is Louis a talented photographer, but he is a pleasure to be around. Booking Louis was simple and stress free, even being an out of state couple (2,000 + miles away), he made sure our questions were answered and needs met. On our “day” he was beyond patient, unfailingly polite to all he met, yet invisible most of the time. Leading up to and on our wedding day Louis was open to ideas and very easy to communicate with, whether it be a phone call or an email he was always timely in his response.
Louis recorded the day as a whole, something we could look back on and remember how every step of the way felt. Louis delivered a beautiful set of images that capture many very happy memories – we will continue to enjoy looking through them for many years to come.

Nicole (Married 04-16-11 See Blog Post “Nicole & Matthew”)

We got married on 4-16-2011 and we used Louis as our photographer and he was great!!! There was a mini hurricane outside on that day and as devestated as I was about it, Louis worked around that with extreme ease. We were unable to go outside at all and all the pictures that had to be taken inside came out amazing. All of the picture’s were done in a timely manner and for the rest of the night you wouldn’t have even known he was there. He was never in the way, but yet every picture he took told a story of the events throughout the night. Thank you so much Louis for everything.

Tara

It wasn’t easy to choose from all of the gorgeous photos ….  I just want to tell you again how much we love, love, love our wedding photos!  They are everything we wanted them to be and so much more.  They’re little 4×6 works of art!!!   Thank you!

Jacklene

Louis!!!
I got the proofs in the mail.  They are amazing!!! You are a true artist.  Every moment that I wanted captured you have a picture of.  People I have known my entire life I have never seen such amazing pictures of them! Everyone looks so happy! Thank you sooo much, you are the best.  I don’t know how I am going to pick from these for the album they are all great!

Kristen

LOUIS!!! WOW!  Thank you soooo much!  I am in tears over here looking at these.  Simply incredible, I am speechless for the most part and just want to keep looking again and again!!  I have several favorites and can not wait to go home and go through them with Tom after work.
FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!  YOU ARE AMAZING.

Erin

Simply put…amazing!  We can not express enough how much we loved having Louis as our photographer for our wedding this past September 2010.  He was extremely professional, unobtrusive and truly captured the essence of our wedding in pictures.  We still can’t believe how one person was able to capture every important moment like he did and all the while went about it virtually unnoticed.  We have had nothing but rave reviews from friends and family about the pictures he took!  He was an absolute pleasure to work with and we can not recommend him highly enough!  Do yourself a favor and book Louis as soon as possible, you won’t regret it!

Tara

My wedding was this past Sunday (10-10-10) and we had Louis Schroder as our photographer. Aside from being an incredibly talented photographer, he was extremely sweet and responsive to mine and my new husband’s requests. He was professional and completely unobtrusive throughout the entire event. We barely noticed he was there! We’ve already been sent a preview of our photos and they look like magazine ads or stills from a movie, they are absolutely gorgeous! If you live in NJ and have yet to book a photographer, please contact Louis Schroder because you will not be disappointed.

Kristen

Louis is an outstanding photographer and was an absolute pleasure to have around on our wedding day (09/10/2010). We just received our proofs back and I am at a loss for words. I would recommend Louis Schroder in a heartbeat to anyone wanting their wedding memories captured in such a beautiful, artistic and professional manner.

Robyn & Adam

We cannot stop saying how absolutely wonderful Schroder Photography was for our wedding. From the moment we met Louis, we knew that his positive demeanor, calming words of advice, and sheer talent would make him the perfect photographer for us. Leading up to the wedding, Louis was easy to reach and very open to communication. Although he knew exactly what to do, he listened to our thoughts regarding each and every detail. On the day of our wedding, he greeted us (he was EARLY!) and had a “plan” for the entire day. Throughout our wedding, our family and friends excitedly told us what a pleasure our photographer was and that he was taking all kinds of photos! After the wedding, we did not have to wait long at all for our pictures. Each picture came out more beautiful than the next, and for the quality of his work, his prices were beyond reasonable. Louis’s photojournalistic style tuly captured our day, and each photo is an individual piece of art.

Louis- we thank you for everything. We can’t wait to have another event-of-a-lifetime so, again, you can capture it all!

Fondly,
Robyn & Adam Rabinowe

Thank you, Louis, for incredible wedding photos! Our wedding was almost 3 months ago, and Im still looking at the photos just as much as I was when I got the proofs. There are so many wonderful shots; I dont know how I am going to decide which photos to put in our wedding album. I am so glad we chose you as our photographer, you were so friendly and professional and we didnt even know you were there after the first few shots. I love the journalistic approach you take to your photos. We really cant say enough good things about you and your work! We will gladly recommend you to any one who asks for the perfect photographer! Simply wonderful! Thank you!!

I do not remember the photographer at my friends Patricia and Sean’s wedding, but when I saw Louis’ work, I knew that I wanted him to film my wedding some day. Well, that some day, was last November. I did not interview any other photographers and prayed that Louis would be available on my date. He was and I have beautiful pictures to show for it.  I would gladly recommend him to all my friends, but alas, I was the last to get married! Therefore, if you are contemplating a photographer, you do not have look any further than Louis.

Louis was the photographer at our wedding September, 2009. He was amazing; so unobtrusive you didn’t even know he was there! He did a great job organizing the family’s and wedding party for photos. My favorite photos are the candids he took; he really captures the moment. We highly recommend him!

One of the best decisions we made while wedding planning was hiring Louis to be our photographer. After seeing the output of his work (the proofs), we realized having him make us an Album was a must. The wedding album Louis made f

or us is our single most cherished item from that day. If you hire Louis to be your photographer you will not be disapppointed…and if you have him make you an album, you will become obsessed with it! He is professional, courteous, and talented every step of the way! THANK YOU!

Each time I view the photos I see something new. The pictures truly capture the people I love in the ways I know them best. Many photos are not only artistic but very clever and you have to look for the little nuances as they can be missed witho

ut attention to detail. Louis…you truly recorded the emotion of the day and that is exactly what I wanted. Thank you!

Rich and I found Louis from his website. It really stood out from others we had seen. He is terrific. From start to finish, he was nothing but professional and accommodating. His work is outstanding, and the finished product is amazing. We have photos we will admire for the rest of our lives. I highly recommend him. We were so impressed with his artistic eye. On our wedding day, he was behind the scenes and put everyone at ease. We especially liked his photojournalistic style. We werent stuck having an hour-long photo shoot instead of enjoying out reception. I wouldn’t do a thing differently. He was a contributing force to a perfect day.

Thanks to all our friends and family for attending and all the well wishes! Louis did an excellent job capturing every aspect of the wonderful day! All of the pictures are just perfect! I have had many compliments on Louis and how you didnt even know he was taking the “can’t miss” shots of the day! Thanks Louis for all your hardwork!

I researched several photographers for our October 31, 2009 wedding before coming across Schroder Photography and was pleased to find a photographer who appreciated quality, candid photography rather than the posed, almost amateurish-looking pictures I had seen from other photographers. I was shocked at the price, too – almost half the price of most other photographers I had looked at and so much more for the value. When we met with Louis the first time, he was so friendly, pleasant, professional, organized, and not pushy at all (even my parents were impressed!). Right away we decided that we needed to book him. Sometimes it took a little long to hear back from him, but I attribute that to the fact that most of our communication was via E-mail, and I’m rather impatient :). The day of the wedding Louis was a pleasure to work with and I can’t believe that he’d taken over 650 pictures because we never knew he was there, he stayed well out of the way but caught all of the best moments and produced incredible pictures. My mother is a teacher and works with many young women who are planning their own weddings. She showed my wedding pictures to her co-workers and a handful of them have asked for Louis’ information.

We are so pleased with everything that has come out of hiring Louis Schroder as our wedding photographer. The experience was extremely pleasant, the pictures came out wonderfully, even better than I’d ever expected, the finished album is beautiful, and it was such a pleasure to have him capture all of the moments of that day. I have nothing but absolutely fantastic things to say about Schroder Photography…He is truly talented and a professional.

I second guessed almost all of my vendors before booking them and have thought about how I would do it differently now that the wedding is over, but I never had any doubts about Schroder Photography and would absolutely not chose anyone else to photograph such an important event if I could do it all over again.
