Mr. Hammett,
My wedding day may be a good ways off in the future but I hope you will photograph it! I love your work and the scenery chosen for the settings and backgrounds are truly unique. I love them all but I really love the one with the soldier helping his new wife into the car. Beautiful photography. I enjoyed our FYI class this year and look forward to seeing you around campus.
Thanks,

These pictures are amazing. I especially like the one where the guys are jumping and the one on the end playing a mean air guitar. Very nice work.

Wow, these are beautifully done photos. The way the the environment is used to enhance the moment and capture the emotions is amazing.
Mr. Hammett,
My favorite picture is the one where the Bride is looking up and doesn’t know she’s being photographed, she looks nervous. It’s a very real moment.
These photos are completely astounding. I never knew you had a passion for photography. I appreciate art because I infact am an artist. I love how you capture the moment in people’s lives that shouldn’t be forgotten.
The pictures look great. I never realized that you had such a talent in regards to photography. Good luck, hope your busy in the future.
Mr. Hammett,
My parents got married in downtown Charleston and these pictures are great. I never knew you were so talented in photography.
Thanks,
