Certified By The Guide Reviews

“Claudia’s work is so lovely and really captures the wonder and joy of the day. Every time we look through our photos, I’m amazed how they recreate the feeling and that moment; she really has a gift. Another fantastic thing about Claudia is how easy she is to work with. Our meetings with her were one of the highlights of the planning process. She’s such fun and has a great perspective on things. Working with her made me calmer and helped me find the joy during a very stressful time. I was more aware and in-the-moment on my wedding day, so I savored every second.”

“We were thrilled with the work she did.”

“Claudia’s very creative and she’s wonderful to work with. I’m a multimedia director. Working with creative people can be a challenge because with that brilliance often comes with a lot of ego. Claudia is as far from the ‘artist’ stereotype as you can get. She’s flexible, spontaneous, and she’s willing to listen to ideas, even if they don’t fit into any neat category.”

“She definitely belongs in your guide because she is real, unpretentious, kind, patient, and professional.”

“I am a trained photographer so I was very picky about who we hired. Claudia is technologically advanced with her techniques, very enthusiastic and seemed like she really cared. Her photographs from our day are outstanding.”

About This Company

Practically everyone—both clients and fellow wedding professionals—we talked with made a point of telling us what a joy Claudia Akers is to work with. One event professional explained the payoff for making everyone feel comfortable in her presence, “She has a wonderful way of capturing people/events/moments without them looking contrived or stiff.”

Of course, her easy, sunny style isn’t the only reason we recommend her. One fellow photographer told us why he admired her work: “Her approach is open, quick and responsive. All angles are covered.” Another photographer told us, “She is a beautiful photographer—She is able to capture the moments that show true emotions. Her work is very beautiful. It takes a certain eye to capture the images that she does.”

In 2009, several of Claudia’s photographs were published in the book Donnie Brown Weddings: From the Couture to the Cake. Earlier in 2006, one of her beautiful images won in the “Details” category of the PDN Top Knots: New School of Wedding Photography international competition.
