About Roaming Badger Photography

Roaming Badger Photography

Owner/Photographer

At Roaming Badger we focus on bringing light and airy feel to our photos with a true to color design that captures the emotion of the moment over overtly-posed memories. Our approach is to bring the most energy, excitement, and a comprehensive skill list to ensure your day comes together in the best possible way. We love combining the "wall" posed photos and key moments with candid captures that put you back into that memory each and every time you see it. LGBTQ friendly and alternative lifestyle friendly Simple Pricing High Energy Additional Services available to assist with planning, coordinating, or finding other vendors.

Most photographers position themselves as taking the best photos or providing the best edit but that's not us. We believe the best part of a good photographer is making you fee comfortable and having fun throughout your day! Our aim is to combine the typical posed photos you put on thew all with all the candid, emotional, and fun moments that you'll remember for years to come through a service that makes you laugh, smile, and feel like your photographer is just another guest. Combining the right candid moments with the formal pieces you want, we provide a luxury experience at a fraction of the cost.

    Amazing personality and photographs!

    Alex was beyond helpful and engaging throughout our day and in the months leading up. We’ve gotten tons of compliments on our pictures and we couldn’t be happier with the way they’ve turned out! We got our pictures back within just a few days after the wedding.

    Perfectly Captured Wedding!

    Roaming Badger Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, their communication style was transparent, energetic, open and honest - exactly what we were looking for in a wedding photographer. The quality of their work was extremely high and the value was well worth the investment. They planned a lot of the shots ahead of the event so they were extremely prepared for everything. In addition, they went above and beyond to work with our other vendors to ensure everything came together successfully. Their wedding video was absolutely one of the best we've seen - they really went above and beyond in finding the right moments to capture and brought out the best in our guests. We would highly recommend Roaming Badger Photography to any couple planning their wedding.

    Pleasure to work with

    I collaborated with Roaming Badger multiple times last year! Alex was a pleasure to work with. His communication skills are evident, and he is responsive to questions. He came prepared with a solid vision and plan. His professionalism and attention to detail made the day run smoothly every single time. The results always exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend Roaming Badger!

    Alex and his assistant Brittany (aka. Wife lol) did an absolutely amazing job. Their interaction with our daughter, her future husband and all of our guests was simply amazing. We hired Badger Roaming Photography to do exactly what their business name states ( to roam ) and our five star review proves they did exactly that. But don’t be fooled by the name. Alex takes fantastic posed photos as well. He and Brittany were able to capture our Bach Bash memories that will last a lifetime. Thank Alex and Brittany! Additionally thanks Brittany for your assistance in helping me out of the bouncy house conundrum. :) Marsha & Daniel Clarkson

I encourage booking as soon as you can to ensure you get the date you want; clients typically book at least 9 months in advance for weddings and 3 months for engagements/portraits.
Every wedding package includes a password-protected digital gallery, print/share permissions on all photos, initial consultation and multiple planning consultations as well as options for physical media storage (DVD or USB) and print photos. Higher end packages offer discounts on engagement bookings and early preview
Usually we plan for the event at hand and determine how many people are needed ahead of time but occasionally we will bring an assistant or additional photographers at no additional charge unless discussed ahead of time.
Yes we do! We offer photo and videography services for weddings, engagements, elopements and other special events
Turnaround time can vary throughout the season but our typical timeline is 2-4 weeks for full delivery of photos with an early preview available within 48 for our platinum photo package.
Yes - we are fully insured for liability services and can provide proof to venues upon request.
Typically we discuss a few details up front to ensure we're the best fit - this can be done through the chat here or a consultation phone call, web conference or even in person if local. After that we draft up a contract and take our deposit (depending on timeline) to setup your special day! From there we will setup a few check in points between now and your event to discuss more details and specifics and ensure everything is capable of going smooth
We do! If you are looking for suggestion for other vendors such as DJs, Flowers, Venues, coordinators and more we are always happy to recommend services of those we've loved working with in the past! Always feel free to ask us any questions during your planning process as we are dedicated to ensuring your day is as special as you can imagine.
