David was an amazing photographer, very professional throughout the whole process. From the initial consultation to the "Big Day" David captured every magical moment and from the shots made a typically duckling look like a swan. Amazing work.

Dave was wonderful to work with. He quickly captured the sense of what we were looking for in our wedding photos and worked accordingly. He's not only a great photographer, he's also a really nice guy. I would definitely recommend him to others.

I highly recommend David for wedding or any event photography. He is very artistic in capturing special moments through photography. He is very passionate about his work and takes time with clients.
After the wedding, we received so much compliments and rave reviews on our engagement and wedding photos. There's no such thing as a perfect wedding, but the photos that David took that day made it look like a magical dream come true for us -- photos that we will treasure for the rest of our lives.

David was exceptional! As a couple living in Australia I assumed it would be more difficult to organise but Dave was great with communication and made me feel secure in what we were getting. He made us feel very relaxed and most of all had fun! Would highly recommend!

David was awesome! He was perfectly professional and so easy to work with. Fit right in with our crazy Hawaiian bunch. We felt completely comfortable having him as our photographer and the pictures were absolutely beautiful. He really captured our special day exactly how we wanted it.

David was the ideal person for our small, intimate Whistler wedding. His photos perfectly reflected the relaxed day we had and he was comfortable and fun to work with. We were thrilled with the results and the value of his package offers.

David Buzzard was great to work with. He was very patient and accommodating with us and our families. He made great use of the surrounding area to find the best light and backgrounds for our photographs.
We would highly recommend his services to anyone.

David is an absolutely fantastic photographer. My wedding photos look like pictures from a magazine: http://www.davidbuzzardphoto.com/2012/02/nita-lake-wedding/. He is reasonably priced, flexible, and very professional. He even delivered a CD with my photos before I left Whistler. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Steve and I had a simple service on the Peak-to-Peak with just the two of us. David was an absolute hoot to work with. He has a great sense of humor and captured many wonderful photos of Steve and I that were relaxed and showcased our relationship with each other. The best part of Dave's service is his flexibility in how his time is allocated. David suggested a lakeside location that would be perfect in the early afternoon, and then offered to pick us up! The resulting shots are gorgeous and what's more, we hadn't planned on getting off-peak photography. To be able to come home with photos of the beautiful Whistler landscape is such a bonus. I would highly recommend David Buzzard for your wedding photography. You will not be disappointed!
