Ty did an amazing job with our marching band seniors with the Marching Wildcats for their senior posters for GBHS Senior Night. He took his time with each senior and captured amazing images. The kids were so excited to take official Senior band pictures. Thank you Ty for supporting our Marching Wildcats and showing how amazing they are through your lens.
We had an amazing experience with Swartz Photgraphy. Ty got us in last minute while we were here on vacation. My daughter’s senior pictures are better than anything I could have hoped for. Ty is a Master Photographer and it shows. The session was impressive too. We didn’t feel pressured to hurry. Ty took his time and was flexibile with locations and outfit changes. He knows where to go and made sure we got the vibe we envisioned. The final products and presentation are also unique and high quality. Ty is low pressure, easy to work with, professional, and talented. My very hard-to-impress teen loved her session and the images. The best last minute decision I’ve ever made! I highly recommend Swartz Photography.
My experience with Mr. Swartz was amazing. From the beginning I knew that I made the best decision to have my daughter's portraits done by him. He was extremely professional, funny, and kind. The day of our session was extremely hot but he managed to capture my daughter's vision in every setting. He definitely has a solid work ethic. And when my daughter and I viewed the final results he had to give me tissues, I was absolutely stunned. He has an eye for perfection. His abilities and final product are top tier. I would recommend this studio to everyone! 5 stars!!!
