What can I say? These pictures have inspired me to fall in love and it’s not just the cute couple either, it’s the beautiful pictures. You all did a marvelous job.

Hi Annie! I cannot tell you how happy I am with my pictures! I feel like you really captured who I am. The one of my mom and my dad are so awesome! I cannot tell you how excited I am!! My mom is too, she kept screaming while we were looking at the blog. I can’t wait to see the rest!! Thank you so much!

The pictures from Trash The Dress are INCREDIBLE!! They are gorgeous and wow I just got huge goose bumps as I scrolled down the page. Those pictures truly do speak more than a thousand words. I have to be honest. I’m a bit envious that I didn’t get to have a trash the dress. =) It is a brillant idea and if I come across any couples looking to get married I will share the idea with them. Those pictures tell such a beautiful love story. Looking at those pictures made me want to put on my wedding dress.

Annie! Wow! The pictures were fantastic! I was so excited to hear they were up. We loved looking at them. They were perfect, all I had hoped for and more. Now we have the daunting task of picking our favorites!

Having Annie photograph the kids was an wonderful experience. She never “posed” the kids, just ran around after them and catching them with neat expressions on their faces. I see the innocence of my kids everyday, but to find someone who could capture their sweetness is truly a gift. I was at ease the entire time! The storyboards are my favorite, I have gotten so many compliments on the unique style and layout.

Joe and I love the pictures and the album on your website!! The album looks great. We love the photo of the reception during the toast that has all the guests! Thanks!

Annie and Toby are amazing photographers!!!! They are relaxed and friendly and easy-going. The photo session was for my 3 children, all of whom are very busy and full of personality. Annie and Toby allowed my children to be children and have fun outside exploring while following them around taking photos—-this allowed for some amazing action pictures and some beautiful spontaneous “personality capturing” shots as well. I think natural and spontaneous pictures of the kids really capture who they are and how much fun they are…..children love to just play!!!! Little details were noticed and captured by them as well—-Annie and Toby had captured moments of interaction between my kids and I was stunned at how wonderful those pictures were (love between siblings—you know it is there, but to see it in still frame is so cool)—-such creativity was awesome!!! I was incredibly pleased with the photographs—–the details and editing were just amazing and my children looked beautiful. I find the website and Proofwire very easy to navigate as well and that means a lot to me when I have limited time for myself. I would highly recommend Annie and Toby as photographers to all my family and friends and have done so already. I plan on being a “return customer” very soon!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you both so much!

Annie and Toby are absolutely wonderful to work with! They are very personable while remaining professional. The two of them together are able to acquire any and every shot you could ever want. I have worked with several photographers trying to obtain a great headshot, and I believe with Varland Photography… I found it!

I was so impressed with how you all were able to capture Jack the way we see him. When I look through the pictures you have taken of him I see every expression he has. You all do a fantastic job capturing life as it happens. I love every picture you’ve taken for me!

We love Sam’s senior portraits! His personality shines through and the park was a great location. I knew when I first saw your web site months ago that I wanted you to photograph him and we couldn’t be happier. You’re definitely going to take Nathan and Sarah’s senior portraits over the next few years, and hopefully much more!
- Susan

Wow! Your website is impressive. Landen says he is very excited to be famous and have his picture on your site. I feel blessed to have had an opportunity to get Landen’s pictures taken with you. Not only will I continue to recommend you for taking great pictures, but you also are wonderful with babies. You were so patient with Landen. Have a wonderful day!

It was a pleasure to work with both of them!! They were both very personable and accommodating.
They come ready to listen to your ideas and ready to share a few of their own too. They are both very creative people and you can tell that that definitely shines through their work! They’re not the typical “stagers” of pictures.. which I LOVE! Each one of their pictures truly tells a story.

My husband and I hired Annie and Toby to take pictures of our family, specifically our two sons Anthony and Nickolas. We have tried a number of the photo places in the malls and always felt rushed in and out like we were just another round of pictures they had to take. Besides, we always had photographers that waited for the “perfect look” before taking pictures, not ever capturing the true spirit of our children just playing. We asked Annie and Toby to come to our house in hopes of having them take pictures that captured a day in the life of our sons. It was wonderful! They both worked at making the children comfortable with them and the boys gained an immediate sense of trust around them and began to act like themselves. Annie and Toby were able to capture on film some of the best pictures of the two of just being themselves. They were always open to suggestion and understood that we did not need to have to boys sitting in a forced position trying to smile and because of that they caught some of the most tender moments as well as some of the most humorous moments we had that afternoon. I have the pictures they took hanging all over my house and my favorite pictures are hanging on the wall in our bedroom so they are the first images we see in the morning and the last images we take with us when falling asleep. I would highly recommend them for any occasion, especially if you want to capture the occasion for what it truly is. We expect to hire them again soon to take pictures of our family once more since we have had a new addition and we are already anticipating how good they will turn out.
