There is something very different about Debby and Ives from Photos of the Heart. They understand photography from a technical aspect as well as an artistic one. It allows them to capture the true feelings of the day. This was so important to us because we decided not to have a video, and our pictures will be our only memory to share with family and friends. Ives takes the time to educate what makes a picture great so you will know what to look for when making your decision. He is not pushy and we never felt rushed. We spent five hours looking at pictures from countless weddings. By taking the time to look at photography from different angles, Ives and Debby produce pictures that look amazing and exceed expectations. Even before we chose them, Debby and Ives took the time to get to know us. Ives wrote down anything that could influence how he shoots our day, and that list was with him on the day of our wedding. This list had what we like and dislike, special people, important moments, style of photography, and much more. It was very reassuring to know that the attention to detail that most would miss would come across in our pictures, as they did in the countless albums in their studio. During our wedding, many commented on how efficient and professional they were. Their passion for what they do gave a fairy tale feeling to our pictures. Debby and Ives create portraits, not just pictures; I found it reassuring to know that they would be the actual photographers on our day. There were no surprises or alternate teams. When Debby and Ives were leaving the reception, they told us to call them when we returned from our honeymoon. Sure enough, our proofs were waiting for us when we got back. The pictures are amazing! Our 80-image album is now up to over 130! When Ives realized that one of our parent’s lives out of state, he offered to burn a disc of all the images so we could mail it out and they could choose their parent album pictures! He did it on the spot! They were so excited to get the disc and had a tough time picking their pictures because they were all so beautiful. Our Wedding day is over, but we will have such great memories to share thanks to Photos of the Heart. Their work was so amazing that every time we view out pictures we can relive our Wedding day. Please allow us to influence your decision and go and meet with Debby and Ives! You will not regret it.

I have to say that Ives has the patient of God. Getting married is a big deal and trying find a photographer is not easy. With a limo if they mess up who will remember in 10 years. With a photographer if you pick the wrong person your stuck with the pictures the rest of your life. My finance and I meet with Ives he was so friendly and patient with us. He fully explained all the diffent styles of pictures we could have. I was very unsure what I wanted and Ives kept show me more pictures until we found what I was looking for. Our appointment was at 7:00 pm and we left Ives house at 12:00 am. This will show you he is very willing to make you happy. I never felt rushed or uncomfortable. Please what every you do meet with Ives before you book your photographer. Wedding date 2006 - Web site only goes up to 2005

Photos of the Heart was recommended to me by my best friend. When I saw her pictures from her wedding It left me speechless. The day of our wedding Ives and Debbie were on time and they planned our day perfectly!!! When I picked up my proofs I was so excited, the pictures were absolutely breathtaking!! I have never met 2 people who have such a passion for photography. When meeting with Ives for the first time, we could tell how much he loved his hobbie, I call it a hobbie because I can see that Ives and Debbie do not look at it as work they look at it as their hobbie of making people smile. Thank you Debbie and Ives for our beautiful memories that we will enjoy for the rest of our lives. Dawn and Matthew Purcell

These guys were great!!! Not only did they have plenty of options for photo packages, but they were a lot of fun and a joy to deal with. We loved our photos, making it very hard to pick out our albums, but it was well worth it. We will now have a lifetime to share our beautiful pictures with friends and family (including our children down the line!!)

The photos of the heart team of Debby and Ives were very professional, friendly and took pride in their work and it made our wedding pictures come out just perfectly. They love what they do for a living and it shows in the pictures. Also they made the most of a rainy day at the Vineyard Caterers where they got pictures of our special moments.Our maitre'de John was extra helpful and catered to my needs as well as our guests. Thank you very much for all the hard work and effort in making our wedding day extra special and a memory of a lifetime.
