"Jake is one of the kindest and most professional people I’ve ever worked with!"
He knew exactly how to find the special moments we wanted captured for our wedding day and he knew how to wrangle our little flower girls and ring bearers :) he has the perfect eye for what looks beautiful! I would recommend Jake for any event you need a photographer for! Thank you so much for making our wedding day special and fun, Jake!

"I don't think it would have been the day it was if it wasn't for you"
Since the wedding I have been trying to find the words or come up with something so amazing to tell you. I have been so overwhelmed with everything you have done for us that I simply can not come up with the words. Like I have no words. The photos Jake, no words. Absolutely stunning, the best I've ever seen. The amount of compliments I wish you could hear from my ears are insane. You have some major fans from our family and friends and I will 100 percent scream it from the rooftops about how every person needs to hire you for the most memorable day.

"His attention to detail and creative eye truly showed in the photos."
My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Jake for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Jake did an incredible job capturing every moment of our special day. Not only were the pictures stunning, but Jake also made the entire process enjoyable. He was professional, friendly, and seamlessly blended in with our guests. All of our friends and family commented on how personable and fun he was, making him a favorite among our guests. In fact, they are still singing his praises three weeks later. We are forever grateful for the beautiful memories Jake has provided us with.

"We are so glad we chose him as our wedding photographer."
The photos came out absolutely beautiful. He captured all the little details of the day so beautifully. He also got so many fun candid shots on the dance floor that make us feel like we are reliving the night. He is truly a talented photographer. His photos are a work of art, rather than looking staged and posy. We could tell how passionate he is about film photography, and it shows through his photos. Jake was also very kind and made us feel super comfortable. Throughout the entire process he was always quick to respond and answer any questions. 10/10 recommend!
