Melissa and Al's Wedding choice
Melissa has worked with Ideal Impressions at a charity event before so she knew that they would get more than someone who can point and shoot a camera. Because let’s face it if that’s what you want just have Uncle Ted take pictures at your wedding. The entire staff genuinely cares about the people they photograph and that is SO very important on your special day or any event for that matter. In fact, to prove my point, when the photographers drove to Milwaukee for engagement pictures they ended up FIXING Melissa’s bridesmaid’s car instead of taking pictures! Her car battery died so they bought a new one and replaced it. Needless to say they rescheduled the engagement session! Now THAT’S a photographer!! You will LOVE Ideal Impressions modern twist on traditional photos. They make photography FUN! I give the wedding party A LOT of credit for climbing the rocks at Klode Park in Whitefish Bay to create an amazing photo, which by the way, is now hanging in an 8×10 frame in Melissa and Al’s home.
PREMIERE BRIDE
------------------
Sarah and I could imagine a case where even truly gifted professionals get caught up in the day to day grind of their work. The long hours, time away from family, etc.
This is just a note to help remind you, Ryan, and your team that each and every positioning of the hand, adjustment for shadow, and lens change equated to capturing a moment in time that is uniquely priceless and one of a kind.
Our wedding day was filled with great memories that do to no small feat you managed to retain for us. For that we will be forever restful. Sarah and I just wanted to extend our deepest appreciation for your company, your second photographer, Kevin, you assistant, Jordan, and of course you!
We have yet to fully review all 1700 plus images, but if the photo fusion is any indication of what lies in waiting for us we couldnt be more thrilled.
Your professionalism and stunningly amazing raw talent made our wedding day complete. What you and your team does, has the ability to make or break a bride's entire lifetime of dreaming; an immense responsibility you clearly take personally and deliver on with great care, each time you take aim.
Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.

And last but not least to the one we owe the most thanks. To Ryan Bensheimer at Ideal Impressions for capturing our perfect day. We truly cannot express our happiness, thanks, gratitude, and love for this amazing photographer and his company. Ryan and his assistant Jake are the best of the best. From their personalities to their creativity WE COULD HAVE NOT ASKED FOR MORE! The day was obviously emotional and tears were shed at many points of the day but when we looked through our photos on his online gallery I was a sobbing mess. Our video fusion was perfect and prepared for our guests to view right after dinner accompanied by a slideshow of the photos from the day. We received our photos on a zip drive that night before we even left! I just cannot even express how happy we were with Ideal Impressions and the talent they brought to our day. They inspire me to be a better photographer and professional and to really listen to what the clients want. THANK YOU!

I'm sure you've heard this from a million brides, but the photo fusion video is The. Best. Thing. Ever. I have already watched it at least 5 times and I'm sure will be watching it countless more. Thank you for everything!!
