*Words will never be enough to capture how great this dream team truly is*
I cannot say enough amazing things about Aaron and Jillian!!! From the moment we met them, they made us ...
feel comfortable and confident that our big day would be captured beautifully. Not only are they incredibly talented photographers, but they also went above and beyond by stepping into the role of being a day-of wedding planner at times, ensuring that everything stayed on track and on time. And the photos are a WOW! I have yet to see one that we do not love!
They captured every single moment we asked for and so much more. It was clear that they truly cared about telling our story through their lens, and their attention to detail was beyond impressive. What really stood out to me, though, was their calming presence. With all the stress of the day, they were a steadying force, always making sure all the little details were in place, that we were having a good time, and that we were exactly where we needed to be at the right time.
One special moment I’ll never forget is when Jillian even stepped in to pin my veil moments before walking down the aisle (which was extremely windy but my veil stayed put!) The way they worked together was incredible (huge perk of hiring a husband/wife team!), and they also blended effortlessly with our videographers and content creator, making sure everything flowed smoothly.
Aaron and Jillian are a dynamic duo who not only capture beautiful photos but also contribute to the overall success of your day. We couldn’t have asked for better photographers, and we are so incredibly grateful to have had them as part of our wedding! They are worth every penny (and more!) so if you're on the fence, feel confident that you're making the right decision by hiring this incredible team. Thank y'all (X 1,000,000)!!!
As the Groom, it’s essential to recognize the undeniable truth: your big day belongs to the Bride. However, my gracious Wife has allowed me to share our wedding experience from my ...
perspective. This is how I started my venue review, and now, I’m here to do the same for our photographers.
Before we dive in, let’s address the elephant in the room. We just celebrated our one-year anniversary (WooHoo!), and only now am I writing this review. Yes, I know. A whole year. And my wife, Abigail (Hi, Abigail!), who is the most patient and understanding person, has been reminding me—relentlessly—with emojis that I better write it.
How I could’ve delayed reviewing two of the best photographers in Charleston (and probably the world) is beyond me. But here’s the thing - wedding photos only grow in value. At first, everything is fresh, but as time passes, details fade. That’s where Aaron & Jillian come in. They didn’t just take pictures; they captured the real laughs, the quick glances, and the moments we were too busy enjoying to notice. Looking at them now, it’s like stepping right back into our wedding day.
Abigail already knew Aaron & Jillian, so there wasn’t much of a search. To be fair, I didn’t have much of a choice. But as the Groom, my first question was, “How much?” I’ll admit - sticker shock. You’re paying for something you haven’t seen yet. But a year later, I can say the price was nothing compared to the immense value these photos hold for us.
We started with engagement photos. They knew all the best spots downtown, and since it was Charleston in summer, it was, well, toasty. Sweat happens. But Aaron quickly prodcued a cloth to keep me looking presentable. A small detail that shows how much they care.
One major advantage of hiring Aaron & Jillian? You get two top-tier photographers - no debating a second shooter. One captures the big moments while the other focuses on details. As a married duo, they work seamlessly, anticipating each other’s shots effortlessly. Plus, having both a male & female photographer makes everyone comfortable. Two photographers aren’t just nice to have -they’re essential.
Also, let’s acknowledge something - Aaron & Jillian are humans, and they’ll be with you all day & night. So, feed them. They’re not just photographers; they’re part of your day. And tip them. Consider it an investment - Aaron & Jillian are avid travelers, and they’ll reward you by filling your feed with stunning pictures from around the world. And you know this advice is real because I had sticker shock and STILL tipped them - because they’re just that damn good.
To all future Brides & Grooms... If you want photographers who won’t just capture your day but elevate it, stop searching. Aaron & Jillian are it. They captured every laugh, every tear, every little look we didn’t even realize we gave each other. Thanks to them, I walk through my house every morning looking at stunning photos, reliving the best day of my life.
Aaron & Jillian, if you’re reading this - thank you. I hope you appreciate that it only took me 365 days to write this. Turns out, great things take time… or at least, that’s what I’m telling myself. But seriously, thank you - I truly can’t say it enough. You exceeded every expectation, captured moments we didn’t even realize were happening, and gave us something priceless - a lifetime of memories. You’re not just incredible photographers; you’re incredible people, and we’re beyond grateful for you both.
Hiring Aaron and Jillian as your photographers is the best decision you can make for your wedding day!! I had first met them when I was a bridesmaid at a friends wedding, and after...
meeting them and seeing the photos from that wedding, I absolutely knew I had to have them for mine (to the point where I made sure that they were available before I confirmed our date with our venue or anything else!!). That is how amazing they are to work with and how stunning their photos are! And that was absolutely the right decision!! Every single photo we have is absolutely stunning and flawless and we are so in love with all of them. They captured our day truly perfectly and we could not have asked for anything more. We were able to relive the day through the photos because they captured every little moment. Every single person we have shared the album with has said how amazing our photographers were and how gorgeous all of the photos are (like saying they should be in Vogue!). I really have no idea how we are going to pick ones to frame and put in our album because we love them all so much and they are all so beautiful. Aaron and Jillian are also just the nicest people you will ever meet. They make you feel so at ease and comfortable and are the best hype squad! We were so lucky to have had them both with us on our special day. I cannot recommend them enough!!!
Aaron and Jillian are the dynamic duo that every bride and groom needs for their special day! Their attention to detail, thoughtfulness, knowledge, and expertise are top notch! We ...
knew right from the initial emails, they were the best choice! If you are looking for the best wedding photographers anywhere (because they even do destination weddings like Ireland!) Aaron and Jillian should be number 1 on everyone's list!!! We loved working with them and more importantly, they are just down to earth, amazing human beings.
Photography was one of our highest priority vendors as these memories last a lifetime! It was evident after talking with Aaron and Jill and browsing their work that we wanted to ha...
ve them photograph our wedding.
And not only did they photograph our wedding, but we also had them do our engagement photos and bridal portraits and we couldn’t be happier with how all our photos turned out - this was also a great way to get to know them better and feel comfortable around them taking our photos! This husband and wife duo are some of the kindest people we have ever met and we always had a blast photographing with them!!
Once Aaron and Jill delivered our photos (which was extremely fast!) we were absolutely blown away - every single one of them was beautiful! They captured our day perfectly and we truly feel so confident that we chose them as our wedding photographers. It was one of the best decisions we made throughout the planning process. We still can't believe how well they captured every detail of our wedding and it was a treat to relive it over and over again, especially some of the small details we might have missed on our wedding day. We will cherish these pictures forever and are so excited to share with our family and friends + hang all throughout our home!!
We have had so many bridal party members, family and guests all say how lovely, friendly, sweet and professional Jill and Aaron were on our wedding day! From our engagement photos, to bridal portraits and to the best day of our lives, our wedding day, we had a blast spending it with A&J and couldn't be happier with the results! They truly made us feel so comfortable and beautiful.
Hire Aaron & Jillian for your wedding - you absolutely won’t regret it!
-Brynn and Tyler
Aaron and Jillian captured our wedding day perfectly and I highly recommend hiring this duo for your special day! They are extremely talented and they are wonderful people to have ...
around on your wedding day. Taking photos on wedding day can seem daunting and stressful but they made the experience so much fun! We love our wedding photos and cannot thank Aaron and Jill enough for their amazing work.
It’s hard to put into words how amazing Aaron and Jill are as photographers and as people. From the moment we reached out to them, through our engagement photos, and now just past ...
our wedding they have been so communicative, timely, and professional. They are masters at helping you pose and making sure everyone is comfortable and having fun! We were constantly amazed at their skill and grace moving around and working so seamlessly together to get the perfect shot and they never missed a moment from start to finish! Not to mention all our family and wedding party also loved and had a blast with them! Our photo preview arrived quickly and we are so excited for our custom photo book we know they will create so beautifully. We can never adequately thank them for what these photos mean to us-the way they tell a story, not just capture a moment. We can’t imagine this once in a lifetime occasion without them there to photograph it , they truly are such perfect photos to cherish forever shot by the best wedding photographers around! Thank you so much to both Aaron and Jillian, we love you guys!
Aaron and Jillian were absolutely incredible!! Every wedding photo was beautiful- it is almost impossible to pick out which ones we want to print! Not only are they amazingly talen...
ted photographers, they are the most genuine, fun, and passionate people. They made my husband and I feel so comfortable throughout the whole day and we can't thank them enough! We would absolutely recommend Aaron and Jillian as your photographer!! They are truly the best there is.
Aaron and Jillian are THE BEST OF THE BEST!!!!
From the first email, to getting to know them through the planning process they were both so incredibly responsive, helpful and just...
warm hearted amazing people who made us feel so comfortable and excited for the big day! The moment we met them they felt like family! We could not have picked a better photographer duo for our big weekend and they truly made our big weekend that much more special + memorable!! :)
Besides being just amazing people, their work is absolutely breathtaking! Each picture truly captures the emotion and detail of our wedding from the Welcome Party and the Wedding Day! They are so timely and arrived early to get stunning photos of the venue and decor details while not missing a beat with SOOO many great candid shots throughout both nights of our friends and family. They have incredible attention to detail and made sure every aspect of our wedding was captured!
Jillian also is BEYOND TALENTED when it comes to Bridal hair! I had my hair down during the ceremony and by the reception I was ready to put my hair up and Jillian was able to step in and do the most incredible “Up Do” for my reception look! TRULY there is NOTHING they can’t do!
They were our #1 pick for our wedding photographers and we are still to this day so incredibly lucky we got them! I would book them 1000 times over again and recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing photographer for their big day!
From the moment we met Aaron and Jillian, we just knew they were meant to be our wedding photographers. Every single step of the way they were incredibly personable, responsive, an...
d professional! On our wedding day, they made us feel comfortable and blended in seamlessly. I sometimes forgot that they were there while they were capturing each moment because they were so agile and respectful of our wedding. When we received our album, everything was absolutely beautiful! Our wedding day was incredibly special and every time we look at our pictures, we feel like we are reliving those moments. They truly captured every emotion and as we look back on them we can feel that same joy as if we were in the moment again. After the wedding, they promptly sent us sneak peeks, and before we knew it our full album was delivered to us! As a gift from my parents, we designed a 12x12 album with them. 20 beautifully laid our spreads, covered in midnight blue leather. Jillian spent so much time getting the album perfect in design and was so thoughtful in what images went together. Arriving a few short months later, our jaws dropped as we looked through our album together. It is something we will have forever and cannot wait to show our children. We will cherish our wedding photos forever and will also remember how amazing it was to work with Aaron and Jillian. We are so thankful that they were a part of our day and cannot imagine it without them! They are such amazing people to not only work with but to also know!!
OH MY GOSH! AARON AND JILLIAN ARE THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHY TEAM AROUND. They made the wedding day feel so relaxed and they truly feel like family. I can not recommend them enough. From...
the first introduction you will feel like you are their friend, they are so warm and welcoming. They work so fast and got our sneak peaks to us 2 days after the wedding. I have never experienced such amazing customer service. If you are looking for your wedding photographers you HAVE to go with Aaron and Jillian, they are the best team there is. After my wedding my entire wedding party said they are going to have Aaron and Jillian photograph their wedding, even the guests were asking me for their information. By far the best decision I made when choosing vendors.
Photography was a major priority when we began selecting vendors and let me say...... Where do I begin with how INCREDIBLE Aaron and Jillian are- from our initial contact to finall...
y meeting in person for our engagement photos, Aaron and Jillian were AMAZING to work with! They had quick response times, always flexible and understanding- and were beyond willing to work with us to make our wedding photography package everything we were wanting! They went above and beyond to make our engagement session work with logistics and weather as we were chasing to beat rain! They picked us up- knew beautiful spots in downtown Charleston to shoot, and did whatever it took to make sure the shot was PERFECT! We are not picture people per say, but they made us feel comfortable right away! From helping with angles, to hand positioning and even fixing my hair mid shooting- there was nothing they missed in the details! We both couldn't believe it was us in our photos (which we got in under the expected turn around time)!! We will cherish these forever and can't say thank you enough for making these pictures everything we hoped for!! We can't wait for the wedding to hang out with Aaron and Jillian again!!
YOU NEED AARON AND JILLIAN!!!!!! Not only are they the BEST people, but they are also AMAZING, JAW-DROPPING photographers. They honestly may be angels on earth. They were the very ...
first vendor we booked (15 months out from our wedding because they are a Charleston favorite, clearly for a good reason!), and the moment we spoke to them on the phone -- we were so excited to meet them and have them be a part of our special day.
Aaron and Jillian took our engagement photos less than two weeks ago, and the images are ALREADY DONE! SO FAST! We spent two hours with them and had THE BEST TIME with them! They are absolutely wonderful and genuine people. Ok - now let's get to the photos...I cried, and am still crying as I write this review. They are more beautiful than I could have imagined. They really captured my, and my fiancés love for each other perfectly. I can see our personality in each photo, which means the world to us. It shows they care. I made a rash decision to get bangs a week before our picture ( trust me, I know...call it wedding stress, lmao). Jillian made sure to fix any stray bangs before taking pictures...she didn't have to do that, but she did! She even had hairspray and bobby pins at the ready. I honestly can't get over how beautiful our pictures came out. I could go on and on and on about Aaron and Jillian. You won't regret having them there for your special day -- and if they aren't available for your date, consider moving your wedding date to align with their schedule - that's how AMAZING THEY ARE!!! I am so excited for our October wedding knowing we are in the best hands!!!
Jill and Aaron are incredible! I have nothing but amazing things to say about both of them. They are a dream team couple to work with. We first met them for our engagement photo se...
ssion a year before the wedding and we immediately felt extremely comfortable being our true selves, and they helped us feel natural being in front of a camera. Jill and Aaron photographed both our rehearsal dinner + welcome party and our whole wedding day. We spent most of the day with them and they were two of the most genuine and kind people ever. (especially saving the day with some last minute water and a power bar!) I'm so lucky to have had them as our photographers and am grateful to have gotten to know them throughout this process. Their photos and creativity are incredibly beautiful and they capture the most special moments. They've created lasting memories for us that we'll cherish forever and we could not be more thankful. I could not recommend Jill and Aaron enough!
HIRE THEM. HIRE THEM. HIRE THEM.
When we first started wedding planning, we aligned on 2 areas we wanted to be super picky about-- our photographers being one of them. I searched ...
the internet, reviews, insta, etc. for months and then found Aaron & Jillian. When I say it was the BEST decision we made, I totally mean it! For starters, we got our sneak peeks super-fast which was so appreciated. The pictures are STUNNING. But that's just the start-- They are the most adorable couple who made the day SO fun. I loved their personality via email so much and I knew we would adore them during our weekend! They were SO helpful in making sure our poses/angles/etc. were perfect so we would love our photos at the end. They were so energetic and literally ALL over the place capturing EVERYTHING. The craziest part is we didn't notice it at all, but in all of our pictures that our friends sent, they were always somewhere in the back capturing. They were so seamless, amazing to work with, and overall, just an incredible couple! They are so in sync with each other being married and you can tell so in love which is so fun on your big day! EVERYONE has raved about how insanely talented they are and my two little cousins told me they are hiring them the second they get engaged! Our photos are STUNNING and something I will cherish FOREVER! From a picky bride who cared deeply about my photos, don't even think, just HIRE THEM! Sincerely the best people ever!!!
I can't say enough good things about Aaron and Jillian! They were absolutely incredible to have with us on our wedding day. My husband and I aren't photo people (we rarely take pho...
tos) but the two of them made us feel at ease in front of the camera. They both gave us tips throughout the morning to help make our photos that much more spectacular and we had an absolute blast taking photos! They were both very organized and friendly throughout a stressful day to keep everyone happy and on schedule! Our friends and family were even commenting throughout the night on how amazing they were and when we shared our photo album afterwards we received glowing remarks on how stunning the photos are. We can't wait to have some of them framed!!
Aaron and Jill are without question best in class and masters of their craft! The duo complement one another perfectly. It could not have been more ideal to be able to have Aaron s...
pend time with the groom and Jill spend time with the bride, before coming together to showcase the perfect poses for us so they could capture the best shots. Their professionalism and passion was evident throughout the entire process of working with them. Both Aaron and Jill are very personable and fun to be around - having made photos and the day of thoroughly enjoyable with them. Their communication and follow up was timely and left us with no concerns, having even sent us a sampling a couple days after our wedding! The final product was jaw dropping with the most beautiful style, and the format was extremely organized. Aaron and Jill are without a doubt the photographers you would be fortunate to work with for your wedding to capture moment and memories that will last a lifetime. We cannot express our gratitude enough - We love you both!
DO IT. Aaron and Jillian's photos speak for themselves. I could tell you how beautiful they are, how they capture every single beautiful moment of your day, how they are true profe...
ssionals and beyond skilled... but I don't need to tell you that because you can see it in their work. What I do need to tell you is that this dynamic duo will have a bigger impact on your day and lives than you're ready for. Aaron & Jillian are more than our wedding photographers, they have become our friends... they are SO kind, compassionate, intelligent and hardworking. From the moment I spoke to Jillian on the phone I instantly felt like I was talking to a long lost friend. My husband and Aaron bonded instantly- in fact, Aaron even lent him his watch during our engagement pictures because his broke moments before. These two are sensational photographers but even better people. I can't say enough good things about them. With their skill and craft, they have given us memories that we can look back on for a lifetime. They made everyone feel SO comfortable in front of the camera and give such good direction! My friends are still talking about how amazing they are! If you're like me, I did tons of research and took my time booking vendors- however, booking Aaron & Jillian was a no brainer and I would do it time and time again. I am so thankful for this duo and can't recommend them enough for your special day!
If you want to find the best photographers you've ever worked with and that can also become your friends, look no further than this couple right here. Truly could not have had a mo...
re positive experience than working with Aaron and Jillian. From day one Jillian helped coach me on exactly what I had in mind for my wedding day. She planned out my first look, my pre and post wedding photos and let me tell you- if you are worried about chaotic families for family pictures- this girl takes the cake for how to handle that. She kept everyone so calm and rolled through them like a true champion. Not only that but we got our photos back in just WEEKS, unheard of. And every single one of them was just to die for, we can't pick favorites because we love them all. She rallied our group, she got down and dirty for the good shots, and the photos of my husband and I are once in a lifetime looking. She really captured the true beauty of the city and made us feel so comfortable in our own skin. We all got along great and they really delivered on what we were looking for. They have a true talent and eye for what you want to get as a result and we are so thankful for them!
Honestly, I've been procrastinating writing this review because I don't know how to adequately and eloquently summarize how incredible Aaron and Jillian are!! First of all, they ar...
e genuinely kind and caring individuals. We went through covid postponements and a venue change and Aaron and Jillian helped coach us through so much of it (which is not their job at all!!). They are true professionals and were always quick to respond to any emails, texts, or calls. Furthermore, the way Aaron and Jillian work together is absolutely seamless. We were attacked by nats on our wedding day, fought through humidity, potential storms, and wind; however, you would NEVER know by the way Aaron and Jillian worked and how our photos turned out. Speaking of, our engagement and wedding photos are more than we could have ever asked for! Aaron and Jillian's style is timeless, and I know we will cherish our photos for a lifetime. They also turned around our photos so quickly and provided an abundant selection of photos, making sure to catch every single little detail and moment. I genuinely could go on and on, and this truly does not do them justice, but the net of it is that they truly are the best of the best!!
Aaron and Jillian are the pro’s pros of wedding photography. They had incredible social media, were immediately responsive when we inquired with them, and were detail-oriented and ...
organized (my husband and I are both doctors and are quite particular). But their secret talent lies in their incredible personalities. First, they will make you want to be friends for life. Second, they are calm, collected, and reassuring on your wedding day. Through their A&J magic, they will help you relax in front of the camera and show off your best selves. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that they are an adorable couple who will also model poses for you! Finally, the actual shots they prepared were beautiful. I couldn’t be happier with the finished product. Their turn around time was also insaneeeeee (under 2 weeks). We loved them and happily, strongly recommend them to you.
Wow, I don't even know where to begin - Aaron and Jillian are not only the most talented, thoughtful and skilled photographers, but they are also the kindest, most fun and genuine ...
couple that you hope will be your friends. The only way I think I can try and bottle up my admiration and gratitude for them is by saying that honestly if they hadn't been available on our wedding day, I would have worked around their schedule! They do such an incredible job making sure that you feel comfortable and showing you how best to pose - our engagement and wedding photos were more than I could have ever dreamed of! They have a contagious energy of joy that surrounds them and they bring out the best in everyone - myself, my husband, our wedding party and all of the guests. Every pose and moment captured felt so natural and yet so sincere. Everyone couldn't stop raving about how fabulous and fun Aaron and Jillian are. In more ways than I probably know, they saved the day from minor and major hiccups, such as driving me, my mother and my sister to the venue when the trolley was delayed in traffic! Even when things could have been stressful, they were effortlessly cool and you can trust that they will not only make this night the night of your dreams, but capture it so beautifully so you can have the memories for years to come. I cannot thank you both enough, Aaron and Jillian. We feel beyond grateful to have met you both and to have had the opportunity to work with you on the most important day of our lives.
Aaron and Jillian are hands down the best wedding photographers in the business!!!! What is more, they are such gracious, lovely, and kind human beings. First, it must be said tha...
t they are unbelievably talented and hard-working. They delivered our wedding gallery full of 1442 frame-worthy photographs within 3 weeks of our wedding – yes, you heard that right, 1442 stunning, immaculate, glorious photos mere weeks later! These photos truly tell the story of wedding day and capture so many subtle moments that went by in such a blur. In addition to their talent, they are consummate professionals. From the moment we booked them, they were already thinking about the timeline – sunset, the golden hour, and how to document every last detail. Throughout the entire wedding planning process, they were extremely engaged, receptive, and responsive. When I was conflicted about bridesmaids' dresses, Jill immediately responded to my inquiry and helped me determine what would look best with the vision I had created. On the actual day, Jill functioned seamlessly as the "master of ceremonies" (in concert with our wedding planner) because she helped keep everything on schedule from a photos perspective so that we could actually savor each moment. She and Aaron managed to wrangle my very large family, an impressive feat in and of itself, and I was particularly impressed how Aaron handled multiple ring-bearer toddlers melting down and diffused the situation so that my three-year-old nephew not only was calm enough to pose for a photo, but eagerly wanted to pose for one. Jill and Aaron were gliding around our venue, managing to somehow be in multiple places at once, while also simultaneously blending into the party (they even looked like wedding guests, matching the attire of our wedding). At the end of the night, Jill sprinted from the upstairs balcony into the street to get multiple angles of our exit because that is who she is - someone who will go above and beyond for you. And I just love that they are a husband-wife duo because they work so effortlessly with each other that you forget you have multiple cameras on you. They are the ultimate hype squad and make you feel so comfortable and beautiful. By the end of our portraits, I was halfway convinced that we were seasoned models thanks to their praise. Seriously, I cannot say it enough - they are PROS. Beyond that, they also care so much and are so invested in helping make your wedding day the most magical day possible! And most of all, they are genuine, kind, and fun people, who celebrate your happiness like the oldest of friends would. We feel extraordinarily fortunate to have had Aaron and Jillian as our wedding photographers and will cherish the photographs and memories for decades to come. Simply put, if you are lucky enough to book them for your wedding, do it immediately – it will be the best wedding decision you make!

It has taken me way too long to write this review because I knew I wouldn't be able to do them justice, but I will try! Aaron and Jillian were one of the first and best decisions w...
e made for our wedding! From my first phone call with Jillian, it immediately felt like we had somehow been friends forever. Both Aaron and Jillian have an incredible way of making everyone so comfortable in front of the camera, which translates to beautiful and natural pictures. When we go through our pictures from our wedding day, it is almost like we are reliving all the moments, which is so important when the day itself goes by way too fast! It rained almost the entire day and my biggest concern was not getting the pictures I wanted, but Aaron and Jillian quickly shifted gears and utilized areas inside of our venue to still give us all the pictures we could ever want. And in case you need an up-do in the middle of your reception because you are sweating with your hair down, look no further because Jillian is your girl!! She pulled me away off the dance floor for a couple minutes and I came back with a whole new look! Lastly, as the rain derailed our boat exit, Jillian and Aaron offered to drive us to our hotel in their brand new beautiful white SUV. They are wonderful photographers and humans. Thank you for everything!
Book Aaraon & Jillian early! They are in high demand and now I know why. They were the photographers for my daughters May 7, 2021 wedding. They were AMAZING and the photographs ...
are spectacular.
Aaron and Jillian are amazing photographers and even better people! I would recommend them to anyone. 10/10. The whole process with them was so organized and thoughtful. They are c...
ommunicative, reliable, and have warm, outgoing personalities. They excel with both portraits and candids (very rare!) and are such a joy to be around. They captured our wedding day beautifully!! They genuinely care about each photo. It was so hard to pick our favorite photos from our wedding - Literally every photo is flattering, memorable, and captured the wedding even better than we remembered! Call and book them now - they are the best Charleston (and beyond) wedding photographers. Thank you Aaron and Jillian again!!!
Where to begin!?!? I truly don’t think that words can adequately describe just how fantastic Aaron & Jillian are as photographers and as people. From our very first conversation,...
we knew we made the right choice, but little did we know just how awesome working with them would be. Our engagement session felt more like a double date than a photography session! They made us feel so comfortable and relaxed, and it felt like we were hanging out with two longtime friends the whole time. We are definitely NOT naturals in front of the camera but Aaron and Jillian made it so easy. They gave us such clear directions and would often model the poses for us which was SO incredibly helpful! We were absolutely blown away when we received our engagement photos. We loved every single image and they all had such a light and airy feel to them. We couldn't have been happier! When our wedding was postponed twice due to the pandemic, we absolutely knew they were the one vendor that we couldn't live without. In fact, we were prepared to change our wedding date if they hadn’t been available for our new one!! Our wedding celebration ended up being 13 months later than originally planned, but it was so worth the wait! Throughout the entire day Aarron and Jillian were professional, efficient, detail oriented and so much fun to be around. Multiple wedding guests commented on how Aaron & Jillian seemed to be everywhere, capturing absolutely everything, but without the paparazzi vibes (lol) and we totally agree!! We are still in awe of our wedding photos. Every single image is stunningly beautiful and they truly captured the genuine joy and love that we felt throughout the entire day. There is absolutely no way that we are ever going to be able to choose just 100 photos for our wedding album. Our photos are just that good y'all! We love them ALL! In conclusion, we hope it is clear by now that we are absolutely OBSESSED with Aaron and Jillian. Book them ASAP. It will be the very best wedding decision you make.
To say Aaron & Jillian are incredible is an understatement. From our first email I knew they would be our wedding photographers. HIRE THEM and here's why. They are the type of peo...
ple that you instantly connect with and feel comfortable to be around - this makes for fantastic photos! Their romantic, light and bright photos are the type you're going to want to display in your home. We got married March 19th, 2021 and I have no idea how we are going to choose just 100 photos for our album - all of the photos are really THAT GREAT! They are 10000% worth the investment. My husband and I couldn't be happier with Aaron & Jillian - as wedding photographers that are now wonderful friends! You won't regret hiring them.
This review has taken us way too long to write simply because we’ve never felt like we had the words to do it justice. Simply put, hiring Aaron and Jill was the BEST decision we ev...
er could have made for our wedding!
While Aaron and Jill are incredibly talented (I mean just look at their albums are you even kidding me?), they are far more than wedding photographers. From the minute we started working with them, we felt like we had made two new great friends! They genuinely want the very best for their couples, and do everything possible to make your special day incredible.
We would have been perfectly happy with great wedding shots to look back on and remember forever, but what we got with Aaron and Jill was so much more. From the minute they showed up to the bridal studio on the morning of my wedding, I was immediately relaxed. They have this infectious joy and lightheartedness that radiates throughout a room and makes everyone from the hair stylist to the MOB calm and excited. Jill made the getting ready process so much fun and gave amazing advice that made the rest of the day a breeze (and kept my hair from blowing in it!). They carried that calm and joyful attitude through the entire rest of our special day and were there at each turn to anticipate and capture every wonderful moment.
They bring so much joy to what they do and it shines through in their work - Our wedding photos are unbelievable! If you have the chance to work with Aaron and Jill, don’t even question it! Just call them and if you’re lucky enough to book them for your wedding, it’ll be the best decision you could possibly make as a newly engaged couple!
They are simply the best!! They did such a great job with my engagement, bridal, and wedding pictures!! Stop your search and book them now! I loved working with them, and our pictu...
res were amazing!!
Aaron and Jillian shot our November wedding at Lowndes Grove in Charleston. It was truly a blessing to have found them – A&J are professional, extremely fun, and a dynamic duo and ...
it’s amazing how seamlessly they work together. They seem to be able to read each other’s minds when shooting and both have a strong knack for anticipating and capturing special moments. You really are hiring two “lead” photographers with A&J, so every image is exceptional. The fact that they’re a husband and wife team really works to their (and your) advantage and results in a fun, laid-back environment where they’re bouncing ideas off each other, demonstrating poses when necessary, and making subtle adjustments to make sure they don’t miss a thing. They had to deal with several challenging circumstances during our wedding, including rain, a wedding dress zipper malfunction during our first look, and a few unique subjects (namely our dog and our two year old nephew) and regardless managed to adapt flawlessly and capture exceptional shots. I’d imagine they have worked at nearly every venue in Charleston and know how to get all the right shots to make the venue / setting shine regardless of the conditions – that was certainly true at Lowndes Grove!
Beyond their skill as photographers, Aaron and Jillian are really great, down to earth people. Because of COVID, we never actually had a chance to meet in person before the wedding, but as soon as they arrived on wedding day it was like we’d been friends with them for years. They’re extremely easy to work with and make you feel very comfortable while being photographed. Given their great personalities, they blended right into our wedding and got every shot we could have asked for, from formal portraits to candid reception photos. We got compliments from almost every guest we talked to afterwards about how fun and professional our photographers were, which speaks volumes about them. A&J are very passionate about what they do and that clearly came through in their interactions with everybody at the wedding and in the photos they created. They also showed up extremely prepared, having worked with us to put together shot lists well before wedding day so that we didn’t need to think about anything on the day of – A&J managed it all and didn’t miss a thing.
Aaron and Jillian are kind and caring people that the Charleston wedding community is very lucky to have and we can’t recommend them more highly.
If you are reading this review, please stop and go and BOOK THEM IMMEDIATELY! Seriously, if you are a bride, groom, or parent and worried about how you are going to capture your w...
edding day, look no further - Aaron and Jillian will do just that! It poured, I mean poured lol, on our wedding day (our entire wedding was outside due to COVID) and while I knew we would get photos, I still had a little voice that was slightly nervous the weather did not cooperate enough for all the portraits. Aaron and Jillian delivered our album and I cried at how perfect every single photo was and how they captured EVERY PHOTO I could have wanted. All of our guests said they could not believe how you couldn’t even tell that it rained on our wedding day. They are not only the most down-to-earth couple, but they are true professionals. The two of them take the time to get to know you as a couple and they capture every single moment of the wedding day. My mother was so upset she could not have a cookie table and she had to put her homemade cookies into a box instead as a favor. Aaron and Jillian took the time to take every single cookie out of the box and take a photo of them, without us even asking. I cannot perfectly articulate how amazing they are as wedding photographers. They even defended my wedding dress from muddy sheep - not even kidding. Trust me, you would regret not hiring them because your wedding photos are a lifetime memory and we are so thankful our photos were with Aaron and Jillian. Now to just figure out how we can hire them again! ☺️❤️
Aaron and Jillian are the best of the best. We did our engagement photos with them and they directed us through every single photo and made the experience relaxing, comfortable, an...
d fun! They are so personable and make you feel like you've known them for years. The turn around for our pictures was so quick and every single picture is amazing. We cannot wait for them to photograph our wedding day!! Please make the investment and choose them! They are amazing and you will not regret it!
Please do yourself a favor and book these people ASAP! Aaron and Jillian were a dream to work with from start to finish. Jill was so sweet and timely in all communication leading u...
p to our day. They are the perfect team to get every photo you could ever want on your wedding day. If I could give 100 stars I would! I can’t thank them enough for giving us such beautiful and timeless photos from our wedding day to cherish forever... not to mention you will just want to hang out as friends with them by the time your day is over. At dinner after our ceremony, our family and friends all mentions how sweet and awesome our photographers were. There isn’t a single photo we got back that I don’t completely love. Thank you guys!!
After we got engaged and chose our wedding venue, I spent a great deal of time saving wedding inspiration photos on Pinterest and Instagram to share with my wedding planner. When I...
noticed that all of the photos I LOVED were taken by Aaron and Jillian, I knew I HAD to have them as our wedding photographers! I was absolutely overjoyed when they were available for our wedding and we immediately booked them. Since they weren’t available for our engagement photos the weekend we would be in Charleston (from Orlando), I was a little nervous that we would be meeting them for the first time on our wedding day. However, my planner (Samantha Anderson) assured me that it wouldn’t be an issue and she was right! Jillian kept in touch with me via email and social media in the months and weeks leading up to our wedding, to the point where I felt like I had already met them when our wedding day arrived. When we did finally meet in person, I knew instantly that if we lived in Charleston, we would be friends. Aaron and Jillian not only took amazing photos, but they fit in so well with our family and Guests and everyone loved them! They made taking our photos comfortable and easy and gave us plenty of direction to make us look our best! When we received our wedding album from them (in less than two weeks!), I honestly couldn’t believe it was us in the photos. Aaron and Jillian are hands down the best wedding photographers, but most importantly they are two of the best people you’ll definitely want to have with you on your wedding day!
Aaron and Jill are absolutely amazing! They are so easy to work with and make you feel so comfortable. So professional and so fun. They did such an amazing job capturing all of the...
special little moments on our wedding day. We just got our photos back and absolutely love them. All of guests kept saying over and over again how impressed they were with Aaron and Jill. We cannot thank them enough for being a part of our special day. Thank you for capturing all the beautiful moments on June 1, 2020 for us! You guys are the best!
I can’t rave about Aaron and Jillian enough! We loved them so much during our engagement shoot that we did another! They are amazing photographers and so much fun to be around! The...
entire wedding day we were so at ease with them and so many people came up to us at the wedding to tell us how much they loved our photographers! Hiring Aaron and Jillian to document such special moments in our lives was hands down one of the best decisions we made. Trust me, you need them!!
If you're reading this review, you're probably looking for a wedding photographer. Stop looking...your search is OVER! Aaron and Jillian are the absolute best photographers. I sear...
ched for a long time for the perfect photographer for my wedding day. One that had the right lighting to their photos, one that made their clients look the most natural, one that got all of the right shots throughout the day and most importantly, one that I vibed with. Aaron and Jillian hit all of those points, and then some! Even when I called other wedding vendors, they all said "Aaron and Jillian are the best." From the first phone call that I had with them, I knew I needed to book them immediately. We got off the phone and I instantly felt like I knew them my whole life and we were best friends. There was no doubt that I wanted to spend my whole wedding day with them. They were the first vendor we hired! Now skip ahead a couple of months to our wedding day and to say that they exceeded our expectations would be an understatement. They are the perfect duo- professional, kind, fun, efficient and genuinely great at what they do. We got our photos back super quick and they are stunning! They captured EVERY SINGLE MOMENT! Our family and friends are still telling us not only how much they loved our photos but how much they enjoyed being around our photographers...of all things to say about our wedding. We cannot say enough great things about Aaron and Jillian. I can't believe we have these amazing photos to look at for the rest of our lives. They are truly talented and we just love them. I promise you, you will not regret hiring them for the biggest day of your life!
Aaron and Jill are absolutely fabulous. We first met this duo when we came down to Charleston to do our tasting and design meetings. Being the sweet southern couple that they are, ...
they invited us for drinks at their lovely home. We chatted with them for hours and knew then that we made the right choice in hiring them for our wedding day! We knew that we liked them, but we realized that we LOVED them after our wedding day experience with them. First of all, they are pros. They are absolute professionals and are super detail-oriented. Secondly, they are lovely to be around and bring an upbeat, positive, can-do attitude to your wedding day. My recommendation to any couple would be to consider your photographers' personalities when hiring them, in addition to their work. Your photographers will be with you, your spouse and your closest family and friends all day - so you want to make sure that you get along with them! I can't imagine anyone not getting along with these two. My bridesmaids wanted to be Jill's best friend immediately. Lastly, their pictures are amazing! I am a very tough photo critic and I loved every shot they sent us. They take beautiful portraits, lovely decor shots and plenty of candid photos for a perfect gallery blend. We'll be looking at these special images and sharing them with our family for years to come. Hire Aaron and Jill - you will be so happy you did! Plus, you get two amazing photographers bundled into one - it's a sweet, sweet deal!
Aaron and Jillian are absolutely amazing!!!! From our initial contract over a year before our wedding they were beyond excited to be apart of our big day and made us feel so specia...
l. When reviewing photographers in the Charleston area, I knew I needed them as soon as I saw their work! They not only create the cutest photo memories for you, but they're the kindest people you could ever hope to meet and the cutest couple! We had our engagement photo session with them and had so much fun, we knew our wedding day would be no different! My entire bridal party and family LOVED them. I could not stop smiling and they captured every detail and moment I could want between my new hubby and I! They made our wedding dreams come true!!!!
Aaron & Jillian are an absolute MUST!!! My husband and I can't say enough glowing reviews. A tropical storm came through on our wedding day, and Aaron & Jill made us so at ease. Th...
ey were willing to go outside in the rain with us to still capture pictures at spots that we had requested. They are such amazing people that go above and beyond to make you feel like you have known them forever! They are very organized and professional. They completed our day! Seriously, look no further!!
Aaron and Jillian photographed our wedding at Middleton Place and they were both wonderful! We cannot imagine our wedding day without them!
A huge benefit of working with Aaron an...
d Jillian is that you have the pleasure of working with two amazing photographers who are both true pros. They were able to tag-team our getting ready shots with Jillian photographing the bride and bridesmaids, and Aaron photographing the groom and groomsmen.
Throughout our wedding day, they made sure that we were comfortable and having fun in front of the camera, which resulted in so many beautiful and stunning photographs.
Middleton Place is a sprawling venue, and thankfully, we had Aaron and Jillian’s help to guide us to the best places to take photos during our first look and to keep us on schedule for getting all our special moments captured during the day.
Aaron and Jillian seem to have a sixth sense that puts them in the perfect position to take a great photo. Every time anything happened and I thought, I hope someone gets a picture of this, Aaron and Jillian were already there cameras at the ready.
We loved working with Aaron and Jillian and cannot praise, thank, and recommend them highly enough; they are true professionals and wonderful people to have around capturing memories on your wedding day.
Aaron and Jillian are the best possible people you want following you around on your special day! We were lucky enough to meet Aaron and Jillian when they photographed my sister’s ...
wedding and we just wish we had more siblings so that we could keep working with them! My whole wedding adored them! They are the epitome of a “power couple” that you also want to be best friends with! They are a dream to work with and helped make us, as well as our friends feel comfortable in front of the camera! They are so loving and made us feel so special and beautiful before, day of, and after. We even noticed some of their tricks and tips really stuck as they snuck into some photos we took on our honeymoon! They are perfection!
Aaron and Jillian are the absolute best photographers to work with. Right when Ben and I met them for our engagement photos we felt like we had know them for years. They make you f...
eel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. The photos are absolutely beautiful. Everyone loved all of our photos, and we couldn't be happier that they were there to capture the most important day of our lives. I can't say enough good things about them. If you want to include your fur babies, they are great with animals too! We brought our family dog and cat! They are truly talented and we are so happy to have chosen them for our wedding. We can't wait to have more pictures taken by them in the future. They start as your vendor but become your friends!
This review deserves way more than 5 stars! Aaron and Jillian were nothing short of amazing! They are a true dynamic duo! In fact, 2 months later and ALL of our wedding guests are ...
still talking about how awesome our photographers were! From the moment we met them at their house in West Ashley, we immediately knew they were the perfect fit for us. Coming from New Jersey- we browsed photographers online and Aaron and Jillian's photos just stood out to us. They are vibrant and bright and just soak up every moment! I immediately sent them an email to meet with them on my next trip to Charleston. My husband was not able to come with me to this initial meeting so I brought my best friend/bridesmaid. Y'all- we spent TWO hours at their (beautiful, pinterest perfect) house ooing and awing over every single photo they showed us, mesmerized on their organization, sipping on coffee and treats, feeling like we knew them forever! My bridesmaid and I left that morning knowing exactly what my decision was going to be.
They are extremely responsive via email and answer all questions/concerns so promptly- even when they have their "out of office" email they still respond letting you know when they will be back!
They blended RIGHT in and took the most natural and candid pictures ever. Jillian gives the best tips on how to make the photo better - popping a leg or leaning in closer etc. - Our entire wedding party, family and friends had a blast with Aaron and Jillian. We had a pretty big wedding party, six kids in our wedding (yes, six- lots of nieces and nephews!) and our precious pup and they got the most amazing pictures of every single person and they did this with ease. They truly captured every moment. They take the most INCREDIBLE photos anyone has have ever seen and really take the time and effort to make all of the photos come to life! I am sad that the day has come and gone but am so grateful that we have these photos to relive the moment over and over again. We can not thank Aaron and Jillian enough! They made our wedding day 100x more special than it already was. They are beautiful people inside and out and we would highly recommend them to ANYONE getting married in the Charleston area!
Aaron and Jillian were the ABSOLUTE best all around. They were so fun, positive and upbeat- they literally light up a room... The bridesmaids and groomsman couldn't stop talking ab...
out how great they were and we received SO many compliments from the guests on their behalf. I'm not one who typically loves having her photo taken but they made me feel so comfortable and photos turned out AMAZING!! They didn't miss a detail and every moment was photographed!! Highly recommend for any shoot or event!!
Aaron and Jillian took our engagement and wedding pictures. They are truly talented and incredible at what they do. My husband and I tend to shy away from being the center of atten...
tion and wouldn't consider ourselves 'naturals' in front of the camera. Both times, Aaron and Jillian put us at complete ease, to the point we almost forgot they were snapping away.
They are complete professionals. We had an army of a bridal party, a dog in our ceremony and some serious rain and they handled everything with ease. They bring such a positive energy to every situation. Plus they're organized and keep everyone on schedule, but with the kindest demeanor. The pictures they took are unreal. You would've thought there were ten photographers because they capture every moment so perfectly from all angles. We are thrilled that we'll have these memories documented, to share and reflect on for a lifetime. From helping me get dirt off the train of my dress, to intricately photoshopping the guests out the background of our bridal party images (we had to move to Plan B and take pics under the Lowndes Grove tent due to the rain) -- they truly go above and beyond for their clients.
Aside from being amazing photographers, they are also two of the most genuine people you'll meet. We are forever grateful they were a part of our special journey and would highly recommend them to anyone.
Aaron & jillian nailed it!
We started our adventure with Aaron and Jillian a year ago when we booked them (upon recommendation from our epic wedding planner: S/O Brooke Southern/M...
iller @ Boutique Planning) for our December Wedding. We knew we had picked the right people from day 1 when Jill asked for our love story and wanted to follow us on Instagram - it felt like they truly wanted to get to know us and understand our relationship.
Our engagement pictures were included with our package and they were able to squeeze us in (during what was likely a crazy wedding season! ) for an October afternoon while we were in town for some planning. For two people that get a little “awkward” in front of a camera, Aaron and Jillian made us feel so at ease. We thought it would be so weird being all lovey-Dovey in front of other people, but they made it so fun for us and we just so enjoyed spending time with each other, and them, perusing the streets of Charleston. Jill had even reached out beforehand to check what kind of vibes we were going for - I told her cute greenery/alleyways and historic charming homes (always enchanting) and they took us to the perfect spots! We were so happy with how our engagement pictures came out and how “easy” they made it, that any anxiety we had about our pictures for the big day fell to the waist side.
Fast forward to our wedding, these two really made our day so freaking special. They somehow perfectly managed to balance being completely invisible at times (capturing every image without ever interrupting or intruding), while also directing us and helping create a seamless flow for the entire day. (small side note, but I should also mention, that both Jason and my parents are divorced, so their direction during family pictures was invaluable and made our stress dissipate. ) So many guests came up to us exclaiming how wonderful our photographers were - and to think that was BEFORE they even saw the actual pictures! That was just based on their energy and personalities. Having Jillian and Aaron part of our big day was not only a joy, but sincerely a pleasure. And arguably most importantly, the pictures below speak for themselves, but between the poses, color, editing, and scenery... ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS - these guys totally crushed it. The perfect mix of candid and classic shots. We are so thankful to have these pictures to relive the memories of that special day forever.
On a personal note: Aaron and Jillian, THANK YOU TWO! We know you see lots of clients, but you made us feel so special. From the small moments like chatting with Jill before the pictures of me getting into my dress with my mom/aunt, to the pictures all across Lowndes Grove plantation and downtown Charleston - we loved having you two be the ones to capture our love in hundreds of small snapshots. And seeing you two together enforces our belief in true love! You work so beautifully well together - between the small gestures: “love that shot” or “great catch”, to the just general amount of respect you have for each other - so special and cool to see (especially given that Jason and I worked together for 6 years!)
To anyone looking to book Aaron and Jillian: please don’t hesitate. You are in the most loving, trusted hands. They will make you look and feel beautiful and on top of the world on your big day!
I quite literally can not put into words how much I adore Aaron & Jillian. They not only produce the most jaw-dropping photos you will ever see, but they are also truly wonderful p...
eople. Our number one priority for our wedding day was high-quality photos we would be able to cherish for a lifetime, and finding Aaron and Jill made that possible. They shot both our engagement session and wedding day and were not only able to capture stunning photos that we are still getting compliments on, but were able to catch all of the emotions that accompanied such a special time, which I feel is truly unique. If you are looking for some fun-loving photographers who will let you be yourselves in front of the camera and who also make super fun friends, look no further than A&J!
Where do I even begin...there are no words to describe how INCREDIBLE Aaron and Jillian are! They are such a joy to be around and work with throughout the process, and make the wed...
ding day stress-free and fun! All of our guests were raving about how amazing our photographers were, and they deserve all the credit! They released a sneak peek after our wedding, and I was crying happy tears as I looked through them. They are so energetic, organized, professional, and the photos are simply stunning and capture the true essence of the day! I was blown away! Hiring A&J as our photographers was the best (and easiest) decision we ever made! Thank you both so much for capturing photos that we will cherish for a lifetime <3
