Clients' Comments

Wil asked me a couple of years ago to come to his studio, bring my guitar and help him with a project he was working on. I was blown away by his talent, studio and the equipment he has. This spring I took my daughter to Wil to have her picture made and he spent a couple of hours with her and made her feel like a Hollywood model. He paid attention to her needs and took the time to get every little detail right. The pictures Wil took, captured her personality to a tee! We're lucky to have a photographer of Wil's caliber here in the Panhandle. Wil's the best!

Not only does Wil possess awesome talent as a photographer, he also has such an easy, relaxed demeanor that I always feel good about our photo sessions.  I have used Wil for individual portraits of myself as well as my children for close to two years and I feel so fortunate to have found such a patient photographer.  He truly captures the essence of a person’s spirit and I know as much as I treasure these wonderful photographs now; their value will only increase as the years go by and I can look back and remember Bryan and S’vanna’s childhood days. I hope that Wil, who took the first professional portrait of S’vanna at age ten months, will be the one to take her bridal portraits. Thanks Wil for all that you do.

Nothing is as beautiful as a child's innocence and essence. When captured by a photographer like Wil - magic happens. Memories are encapsulated in one freeze frame, character portrayed and the magnificence of the child at that moment immortalized.  Wil takes the time and effort to provide the proper backdrop and setting to properly portray each individual's personality.

People have kidded me for years that I have the "cheekiest" kids around because they are very beautiful and photogenic and I either get their portraits taken or take ones of them all the time. Show them a camera and they pose. I have many great photos but none are like the ones Wil takes. He captures them.

Wil has taken pictures of both my daughters and the experience was not only fun for them but the pictures were wonderful.  His unique settings are only the beginning.  He works with them to bring out that perfect look - which is not as easy as one would think!  But what I like the most is that you will never see another photo like it.  Wil does not have a "cookie cutter" studio where every picture taken there has the same backdrop, pose, lighting, ect...  Every picture is an original.  We will never have anyone else take our pictures.  Wil has spoiled us!

Wil is the BEST!  We have been going to Wil for the last three years, and we are always very happy with the results.  It's a relaxed atmosphere; a big change from most studios who rush and compromise quality just so they can squeeze more clients into their day.  Wil is very creative in lighting and posing so we have never had a "generic"-looking picture.  His photos really capture who we are.  He really listens to our ideas and helps us build the look we are going for.  We are a military family and live 1500 miles away, but we always wait until we get back home to Amarillo for pictures.  No one else can live up to his standards!

As a surprise Christmas gift to my mother, I gathered Mother and my husband, who was unwilling at first, to Wil's studio.  He immediately made us feel welcome and at ease in his beautiful and warm studio. With music in the background, he confidently and patiently began to take pictures. With a great variety of poses and backgrounds he made us feel like stars.  The outcome pleased all of us and after reviewing many prints we chose the images that satisfied.  Wil's professionalism, expertise, and flexibility made the afternoon a pleasurable one and we will remember the day with fondness and we have beautiful portraits to share with our loved ones. Thanks Wil, you are great.

Not only is Wil McCarley an excellent photographer, he is a nice guy who cares about his clients and his work.  He made us feel totally comfortable and welcome in his studio, and that feeling of relaxation comes across in his photographs.  Wil let us choose our poses and color schemes, and he was always standing by with recommendations when we ran out of ideas.  He has taken some beautiful photographs of our family and we will continue to let him document our lives with his creativity.  We would recommend Wil to anyone.

Wil was referred to me by a friend who had her son's senior pictures at his studio. The pictures were so diversified and definitely portrayed his personality. I was also pleased with the results and the keepsakes of my daughter's senior pictures will last a long time. Wil spent a lot of time with us and allowed us to determine those shots we thought were the best. My family will use Wil's photography studio again when it's time for the professional pictures we need.

I strongly recommend the work of Wil McCarley. Photographs are supposed to capture a moment in time. Wil's photos capture the right look, the right pose, and the right mood. I've worked with Wil extensively and have always been pleased with the care he takes to create a perfect photograph. Whether it's a passport photo or a bridal portrait, Wil makes sure the work is worthy of his name.

Wil is not only a wonderful photographer, but he is also wonderful person and a person that you would be honored to know and call a friend. I have known Wil now for about 5 or so years. He has always been very dependable and excellent at his work. Wil has photographed me early in my modeling career, he did my engagement pictures and also pictures of my newborn son. He is able to capture any moment and show the
true you through his work. He always goes out of his way to help you and to work with you and your schedule the best way possible. I have recommended Wil to a number of people for different events. Wil is a
wonderful person, and anyone that ever works with him-I know will feel the same way.

I could not have been more pleased with the bridal portraits taken of my daughter—Wil “captured” Emily’s personality so well!  He took the time that was needed—we didn’t feel rushed and his suggestions were great.  The pictures he did of Emily and Jesse’s wedding were some of the best I have ever seen.  He allowed a lot time before the ceremony to take “candid” shots of all the wedding party.  He was “all over the place” during the ceremony and the pictures were awesome.  The reception pictures were also great—he was able to film the emotion and moments that we will never forget.   As a side note—Emily and Jesse had Wil take pictures for their first anniversary—he is definitely “our photographer”.  The care and professionalism shows in Wil’s work—we recommend him to everyone!

Wil was great to work with by email, mail and on location for my daughter's bridal portraits.  He was patient and we never felt rushed and the pictures turned out great!

Shortly after my husband and I were engaged our wedding plans began taking shape.  We talked with several photographers and no one offered what we were looking for.  I feel so fortunate to have found Wil for both my bridal portrait and our wedding pictures.  Wil was very easy to work with, offered great prices, and we did not have to mess with complicated packages.  We were very pleased with his work and definitely will choose him for our family portraits in the future.

Wil is a great photographer. He has taken lots of action shots of our boys playing football. The pictures are top quality and very reasonably priced. He is very easy to work with, and I have referred my friends to him for their photography needs.
