Shayne is great putting people at ease, taking candid photos. He used the area to his advantage since we were still under snow on April 1st.

Shayne was A+ from day 1! Not only did our photos turn out amazing, but the customer service was truly excellent. From our out-of-town engagement shoot to the postponement of our wedding during the pandemic, Shayne was always very flexible and understanding. He even offered to come to Ottawa at no charge to immortalize the small ceremony we decided to have on our original wedding date. You can tell he is passionate about his work and very experienced. He sent us a well thought-out form to gather all the important details about the timeline, venue, lighting, etc. And on the day of, he made us and our guests feel really at ease (I know some brides worry about having a male photographer for the getting ready portion, but there was no awkwardness at all with Shayne. He’s a real pro!). We also liked that his packages include some prints and thank you cards. We were so happy to have him on our team and highly recommend his services!

Shayne from our first meeting put us easy. His sense of humour made shooting with him fun and effortless. Thoughout the whole day, he was taking photos and all our guests said how great he was. Our maid of honour booked him for her wedding. What we really liked is that he gets to know his clients and shots photos that feature the couples personality. We are so happy with our photos, we will treasure them

Shayne is simply amazing. Finding him was one of the best decisions I've ever made. He is not only extremely talented, he is fun and easy going. Shayne kept us laughing, made me feel beautiful and had our complete trust. I can't enough good things about his photography style and him as a person in general.
From a happy happy Bride!

Cliff notes: Hiring SB Images will be one of your better decisions. Easy to work with, fun and makes you feel very comfortable right off the bat.

Shayne captured our WHOLE wedding day perfectly. Not only did he deliver gorgeous portraits of my husband and I but almost more importantly he caught all of the small bits that I wouldn't have changes for the world: my conservative grandfather busting a move on the dance floor; the best man's struggles with a bow tie, my MOH and her dress with a busted zipper (FYI Shayne was able to save the day with a sewing kit in about 5 minutes flat - I didn't even have time to worry before he had a solution) ...

Literally all the bits, I will remember with a beaming smile years later; he caught all the laughter, tears and ridiculous heartfelt moments. I was overwhelmed when we when through the photos.

Further more were my initial thoughts after receiving our custom box of wedding photos: 'Damn it Shayne! We are going to have to buy a prettier shelf.' WILDLY BEAUTIFUL!

If you are considering a few wedding photographers; Pick SB Images, if you regret it, I will personally buy you a coffee.

Shayne is absolutely phenomenal! He takes awesome shots. He is very professional but is also very easy going. He made my husband and I feel very comfortable in front of the camera. We loved every single photo we received. He definately will be our first choice for any future photo shoots!

We chose Shayne as a photographer after looking at his portfolio online. It was exactly what we wanted for our wedding, beautiful, classy but fun and low-key all at the same time. After meeting him in person we didn't feel the need to meet anyone else. He was easy-going, attentive and ready to try anything. We scheduled our engagement photos and then switched the date on him last minute to try something fun. He was on board immediately and super accommodating. The pictures turned out amazingly well and we're stilling getting compliments and questions about our photographer months later.

Recently we contacted him to do a "family" portrait with our dogs at the house we just bought and he was there with 24 hours notice on a gorgeous day, had the pictures faster than I thought possible. Can't wait to make them into our Christmas card for this year.

We are so excited for the wedding and we couldn't have made a better choice in photographer. Recommend with no hesitation!

I can't say enough nice things about the wonderful Shayne Bampton/SB Images. From timely responses to creative suggestions, we are so pleased with every aspect of our interactions with Shayne. We were originally drawn to SB Images for the style/originality of photographs - fun, candid, and very few typical wedding shots that everyone else seems to have. For the record, I hate having my photo taken, but Shayne made me and all of our wedding guests feel very comfortable, joking around with everyone, and capturing the smiles he provided. As we share photos with friends and family, the positive feedback from how FANTASTIC the images are is overwhelming. Everyone agreed that we hired a personable, professional photographer - our only regret was that he couldn't stay and party with us! Shayne's passion for his work is obvious in the quality he delivers. I will, and have, recommend him to anyone in need of a photographer.

Shayne was an absolute blast to work with. He did both our engagement and wedding photos. He made us feel extremely comfortable right off the bat. We loved that he let us interact as a couple and captured special moments along the way but also offered great ideas and direction for our posed photos. He is also quick to respond to messages and was very flexible. We absolutely love the photos he took as did all of our guests!
Thank you so much Shayne!!!

Why is Shayne is the real deal? He is a talented photographer that captures the emotion of your wedding day and works his way around to get the angles you didn't even know existed and those small smiles, tears, and gasps that you and your guests felt on your special day. From our very first meeting we felt like we hired a friend to photograph our wedding. Shayne traveled to Toronto, checked in with us to make sure we knew he was ready for the day, and managed to efficiently wrangle our family and friends for photos when needed. We are beyond thrilled with our wedding photos! We 100% recommend Shayne for anyone who is looking for genuine emotions of their wedding day to be captured in a beautiful gallery of photos!
