A little quirky, very innovative and a breath of fresh air in an industry that has seen little change in over fifty years. Unobtrusive photojournalism with a splash of elegant fine art portraiture make the perfect combination for a fairy tale book that everyone will want to see and OOOOh and Ahhhh over....Find out more

- What was your favorite wedding photo? None
- How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits? N/A
- How did the photographer make you and family comfortable? This photographer took pictures with her shadow cast on us. We ended up firing her before the wedding after seeing the engagement photos. I would not recommend her.
Vendor Comment:
On rare occasions customers see themselves in a picture that is different from the way they see themselves in every day life. Unfortunately I can't do much about that. I'm Sorry that Tammy didn't like what she saw in her portraits, and I do strive to make sure that the customer walks away feeling good about themselves, but sometimes nothing I do is going to fix what they see. I received an email from Tammy after the photoshoot, and while I won't share her exact words, she made it clear that it was not my photography that was the problem. Rather, she did not feel comfortable in her own skin (or with her current weight). Although many poses were done, different angles were used, and I offered to whittle away some of the excess weight using photoshop, the bride had already concluded that because what she wore on that day wasn't flattering, that nothing would be able to save the pictures.

- What was your favorite wedding photo? I can't pick just one, but I loved the ones of me and my husband at the alter.
- How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits? I barely remebered she was there!! She got so many great candid shots that really showed me and my husband as we truely are.
- What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers? We only opted to get the pictures and not have an album made (my mom is a scrapbooker and making it), it was such a reasonable price we couldn't say no to it.
- How did the photographer make you and family comfortable? Jennifer was amazing! I really can't say enough nice things about her! My friends thought that she was a family friend because she was just so natural with us. She made me feel completely at ease throughout the whole day and even gave us pointers, which was helpful because she has been to alot more weddings than me!!

- What was your favorite wedding photo? My favorite wedding picture is the once of my two neices dancing during the reception. It was a great candid shot.
- How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits? Jennifer arrived very early during the day, and followed the bridal party all throughout the day. Very few of the pictures she took were staged, and we were able to do many of them before the wedding ceremony began.
- What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers? In our package we received engagement pictures, wedding coverage all day. DVD's with proofs of all of the pictures, a digitally enhanced album with over 200 pictures, and quite a few print outs.
- How did the photographer make you and family comfortable? Jennifer was very flexible and was continually able to work without requests without any problems.

- What was your favorite wedding photo? My husband's favorite wedding photo is the one of us standing on the stairs looking up at Jennifer before heading down to the reception. My favorite is me sitting on his lap at the end of the night.
- How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits? The wedding photographer went with the flow, stood back and just took the candid shots. Only a few were posed so there wasn't a lot of disruption and moving around to make sure we were in the right light or position. I wish we had taken a few more of just the two of us before the wedding, but there was so much to do and we ran out of time.
- What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers? We received an engagement photo session, a bridal portrait session, rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, and all day of the wedding. I received an ablum of 150 photos and my mom received an album of 200 photos. I had to buy the rights to get the photos on disc to have at my disposal.
- How did the photographer make you and family comfortable? She fit right in and had a good time doing it. Jennifer is very personable and makes you feel like the prettiest bride in the world. She has been doing this for so long that she can talk a nervous bride out of being nervous and has some really great ideas.

- What was your favorite wedding photo? Choose one?! I can't. But if I had to choose a top three they would be: 1. The black and white photo of my husband dipping me and us kissing in front of the club house. 2. A candid shot of my sister and I looking out the window when my Dad arrived 3. The photo of our whole wedding party jumping in the air (it's just so fun!)
- How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits? Jennifer has such a way about her that when she is taking pictures you barely realize she is there. Then when you talk to her about your ideas and what is going on during the day it seems like you have known her forever. She is wonderful. As for candids and action shots, I had a friend from California who was unable to make it and said that looking at the pictures made her feel like she was there. Even now looking at them I can remember everything that happened which is nice seeing that day went by like a whirlwind, but now I have pictures that represent our whole day.
- What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers? We ordered an album as well as all of our pictures on cds. I was expecting a cd of pictures of course, but when the box came and I had multiple cds of all the pictures, some enhanced to black and white, or touched up I couldn't believe it. I was in awe and spent the next few days pouring over the photos.
- How did the photographer make you and family comfortable? Extremely! I really couldn't have imagined having any other photographer at my wedding. I have been to some of my friend's weddings where you were afriad to get in the way of the photographer because they might snap at you, and weren't friendly at all. Not Jennifer, she fit in perfectly and got along great with everybody.
