The actual date of our wedding is not available. We were married 19 years ago. Hans and Pat were our photographers. Most recently they took our daughters graduation pictures. They are extrodionary photographers. Their talent and creativity is top notch. They really know how to capture a moment in time. Every step in the process is first class service. I could trust there work, customer service and commitment to quality!
I would recommend them to anyone looking for high quality, classy and timeless photography! They are worth every penny you spend.

Additional Advice
Weddings often ask my wife Pat and I who do you recommend.
It took my wife 15 minutes to plan our three childrens weddings, Not all in one year. (Glad)
Somewheres about 40 of our weddings we photographed had the shame networkers. They where all the best in town.
That tells you a lot right there!
When we photographed The QuarterBack from Minnesota a few years ago.
Rich and Shelly Gannon. They asked us who the Best florist was, The best videographer, Best horse and carriage,
The best band and a lot of other tips. They used each and every one we recomended. They are still Happly married.
That is how you plan a wedding in 15 minutes. They off coursce still checked them all out, and they should.
