Of all the choices I’ve made for my wedding, choosing Ryan Smith Photography was likely the best one. Ryan showed up early on the day of and checked in with me immediately upon arrival and went straight to work. He was so much fun, personable, and professional. He turned the photos around quickly and responded to all of my emails immediately. Everyone loved him. My family and friends are still talking about him! I have a condition that makes my eyes look a bit strange in pictures sometimes and I was concerned about my wedding photos looking distorted. I had spoken with Ryan and he was very respectful of this. I was sure that there would be a number of pictures that I would not love because of my eye. Imagine my surprise when every single photo was perfect! The effort he put in to us and the time he spent perfecting every little shot was unreal. The pictures he took have given me a knew confidence that I didn’t have before my wedding. If you’re looking for the right photographer, look no further. Ryan is the best of the best!

Ryan did such an amazing job with our very wiggly and wild family. We got so many combinations of places, family shots, couples and solo kid shots. Thank you so much for making our uncomfortable in front of the lens family look photogenic.

We chose Ryan to photograph our destination wedding after doing quite a bit of online research of photographers in the area and are absolutely thrilled that we did! We met with Ryan once at his office about 2 months before our wedding to go over everything we envisioned for our big day and we knew even then we had made the right choice. The day of the wedding he was tremendous with trying to catch all of the right moments and angles without even being noticed. He sent us a few preview photos a couple of days later and then in less than 3 weeks we had the entire gallery emailed to us. The pictures are absolutely fantastic and we could not be more thrilled. He caught every big moment of our day yet somehow I can't recall him being around during the ceremony or during the reception (in my opinion that is a huge compliment!). If you are reading this and considering hiring Ryan for your event, take my advice and do it, you will not be disappointed.

Ryan did our family photos while we were on vacation in Garden City Beach! We have a huge family of 22 (10 adults and 12 kids). He was extremely patient, kind, efficient, and understanding when the kiddos needed a min! Didn’t rush us at all… we got the photos back in 2 weeks. Ryan was great to work with and we got some great family photos!

Ryan was very professional and patient.
My family and I had an amazing experience working with him.
When you take family photos with children you never know what you're going to get and the shots he captured were phenomenal.
Thanks Ryan for everything.

Ryan was amazing from the first email to the last photo taken. Very professional, suggested a great location, and had great posing ideas. We traveled from Missouri and on a whim, brought a prom dress for a couple shots of our daughter and now we have the most amazing impromptu senior pics. If we lived closer, Ryan will be our only photographer.

We had a wonderful experience with Ryan! Days before the photo shoot, we had horrible weather come in. On the day of the shoot, it was raining hard, dark sky and didn’t look so good. I sent him an email and asked what his thoughts were in reference to canceling and he said “I’ve had days similar to this that turned into the best photo shoots, let’s wait and see”. We waited down to the minute and THE WEATHER GOT BETTER! I’m so grateful and the family photos turned out great! I highly recommend him!

Ryan was better than we ever hoped for! He has an incredible eye for detail, the calming composure of a true professional, and a love & passion for his work that aren’t easy to come by. He made the entire process seem so effortless. We were truly blown away by the end result... FLAWLESS PHOTOS!! I would recommend him a million times over!

Ryan was absolutely wonderful for our wedding day! He went above and beyond for us, from showing up a little early to get getting ready pictures, to posing us, and dealing with our crazy family! I couldn’t thank him enough and will always recommend him for anyone in the Myrtle Beach area!

Ryan is the best wedding photographer ever! He is so flexible, easy to work with, and responsive. He was able to deliver exactly what I wanted and more. Our day of timeline got a little messy, but he was rolling with it and still prioritized what I wanted over anything else. I loved working with him!
