"Ian was a pleasure to work with right from the beginning! He was accommodating with his schedule & worked with us to pick the right date for the photos. We were a large group, sometimes hard to wrangle, and he patiently let us decide who was up next for pictures. All of the pictures looked great, we are so happy!!!

Ian was great to work with. He was wonderful with our extended family portrait and made the sitting enjoyable. The photos were beautiful and presented in a lovely photo box. The formal portrait was beautifully done and of the highest quality. I highly recommend Ian Cowpar Photography and will definitely be using him again.
