Gary was amazing. He was thorough and took amazing photos. He gave us great guidance as well and made sure we had all the photos we wanted. He made the day so special and I would absolutely recommend him to everyone.
The photos came out incredible! The owner and his assistant were absolutely lovely to work with and have around for wedding activities.
Gary is the best, he makes posing feel natural and the photos always come out beautiful!
Gary and his team did an amazing job capturing the wedding of my great friends David and Rachel! Pictures were already able to be previewed during the night and they looked amazing!
Gary, and his associate, Jeff, were absolutely INCREDIBLE. From booking (over a year in advance) to wedding reception, they took our vision, hopes and dreams for pictures of our event, and knocked them out of the park.

From booking (over a year in advance) to wedding reception, they took our vision, hopes and dreams for pictures of our event, and knocked them out of the park. They were so easy to work with, and produced amazing images. They even had a screen showcasing some images during our wedding reception, which guests loved to see. I cannot wait to get our final edits!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that Gary and Jeff were able to bring your vision to life and that you enjoyed the experience from start to finish. It's wonderful that your guests appreciated the image showcase during the reception as well. We can't wait for you to see the final edits, and we appreciate your trust in us to capture your special day!
The photos from our wedding were absolutely beautiful—there’s no denying the photographer’s talent. That said, the overall experience has been incredibly disappointing due to the complete lack of communication and follow-through. The packages are expensive, and with that price point comes an expectation of professionalism and strong customer service. Unfortunately, I’m now approaching two years since my wedding and I still have not received the album I paid for. I’ve made repeated attempts to get in touch—calls, voicemails, emails—but have received no response. It’s extremely frustrating to have invested so much, only to be met with radio silence. While the quality of the photos is commendable, clients deserve to receive everything they paid for. I would caution others to seriously consider whether the lack of responsiveness is worth the risk.
We sincerely apologize for the frustrating experience you have encountered regarding the delivery of your wedding album. While we are glad to hear that you loved the photos, we understand that communication and follow-through are critical, especially for a significant investment. Your feedback is invaluable, and we are actively working to improve our customer service. Please know that we are committed to resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Great communication. Fast and to the point for helping with all our needs. Highly recommend. Thank you!
Thank you for your wonderful review, Steve! We appreciate your kind words about our communication and efficiency. Your recommendation means a lot to us. We look forward to assisting you again in the future!
My husband and I used Live Long and Prosper Photography for our wedding in June of 2023. We first reached out to Gary with inquiries about his style and pricing. He came back to us more detailed and knowledgeable than I could have ever imagined! Gary was meticulous with everything on the back end! His associate that photographed our wedding was absolutely stellar! She was detail oriented, passionate about her art and her ability to capture our wedding in the exact way we had dreamed of. We had lost my favorite uncle the morning after our wedding and Gary (and team) were able to procure a few beautiful photos of him that day for us. We would recommend Gary to anyone. He was respectful to our budget and was realistic with what would be the best package/fit for us!!
Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience, Lilliana! We're honored to have been a part of your special day and to have captured such meaningful moments. It means a lot to us that you appreciated Gary's attention to detail and our team's efforts during such a significant time. Your recommendation is greatly appreciated, and we wish you all the best!
We were lucky enough to meet Gary from Love Long and Prosper Photography at a Bridal Expo in 2023. He was easily the MOST knowledgeable and personable photographer we met that day. So it was a no brainer to book with him. We used Gary's services for our engagement shoot and our wedding day. Gary has AWESOME photoshoot ideas and locations on where to shot the photos. He makes photoshoots super fun and captures beautiful and unique shots. On the day of the wedding Gary has 1 rule. "Do not look at the camera unless he says so." Honestly the is the most brilliant rule ever because those photos are the most candid! By the end of the Gary had a handful of edited photos from earlier in the wedding day. They were displayed in our bar area of the wedding. Guests and the staff were amazed with his work. Not to mention the staff at the venue are HUGE fans of Gary's work and was so excited that he was there. When it comes to booking venders for your wedding it is IMPORTANT to not skimp on who you trust with capturing the beautiful moments of your wedding. With Gary....just like Allstate...you are in good hands.
1,000,000/5 Stars. Gary is an absolutely amazing photographer. He is the best of the best. His service from beginning to end was attentive, thorough, and so relieving. Wedding planning can be so stressful. Gary made it extremely simple and easy. He is communicative, fun to be around, and FAST. Our wedding was last night and we got our preview photos less than 24 hours later. They’re all amazing, by the way. From one artist to another, Gary you have a true talent and eye for this and we were honored to be photographed by you on such a special day. This is a day we will never forget, and you are a huge part of that reason. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for capturing and filming the day I will hold near and dear to my heart until my last breath. Nick and I are over the moon, riding cloud 9, and CANNOT WAIT to see the final photos soon. If you needed a reason to bite the bullet and choose a photographer, let this be your reason. There is no price on happiness. Choose Gary and you will not regret it!!!!!
