EventSmith Productions was officially established in 2009 (Formerly named J&D Productions) by Jessica Smith-Williams. Jessica shot her first wedding on 08/08/08 for a college friend from China. After graduating from the University of Houston - Clear Lake in Spring 2009, she was asked to shoot another friend’s wedding… Then another friend… then another. Just like that a passion for capturing one of life’s happiest moments became a full-time profession that we absolutely love! As we grew over the years, our team has expanded to include more photographers, cinematographers, as well as several photo and video editors. Based in the Houston-Galveston area, we love shooting all kinds of photography and videography, but specialize in weddings and special events. We love what we do and the people we get to meet every day. The best part about our job are the connections we make and lasting friendships we form. You may walk in the door as a client but you most definitely will leave as a friend.

Jessica did any amazing job of capturing our ceremony on video and creating a professionally produced final product! I rewatched the ceremony as soon as I received the video (whic...

Jessica and her team were so COMMUNICATIVE and PROFESSIONAL throughout the entire process. They captured such BEAUTIFUL moments and included everything we wanted from our special day. HIGHLY RECOMMEND choosing them as your wedding photographer or any other special events in your life. You will not be disappointed. We also chose to add the Content Creator Package that they offer which was definitely worth it!! The video clips were stunning and available the very next day for us to post on social media. Will definitely be using them for any future photography needs :)

ing day. Jessica and her team did our photography and videography at our wedding in Santa Fe, Texas. The pictures and video are PHENOMENAL. I truly am in awe of how amazing they all came out. They made sure to capture every moment from our special day from getting ready, the ceremony, the reception, the exit, all wedding party, and all family photos you can even think of. They are also incredibly knowledgeable! They knew where the best background was, the best lighting, everything!!! I still cry looking back at our all pictures and constantly cry watching our video!! An amazing team at such an amazing price!! You will not regret hiring them to take care of your photography and videography!! Also, Jessica is a gem of a human! Everyone, and I mean everyone loved her. She is so personable and makes you feel so comfortable. Everyone thought she was a life long friend with how amazing she was with all my guests!! Just book them!!!💛
After looking at their portfolio and all the reviews, we hired Eventsmith for our wedding photography and videography. Honestly, the best decision we could have made! Jessica and h...
er team are so organized and let us finalize a photography shot list prior to our wedding day, they were really quick to respond to any questions, gave us a free engagement session and large printed out photo, and were able to wrangle in our chaotic family members (adults and kids) to get in all the photographs on the list in a timely manner.
Don't hesitate to book them, you won't be disappointed!!

Mrs. & Mrs. Schoellkopf

beyond to make sure I got exactly what I wanted; they were understanding, willing to work with me, and helped made the wedding planning process a breeze when it came to photo and video because I could trust them 110%. I’m a week and a half out of our wedding so I am super anxious to see our footage! But I couldn’t wait to give the awesome review they deserve! ❤️

From the moment I walked into the office at The Springs and saw the amazing work by J&D Productions, I knew that I wanted my wedding captured by them. From the moment I met with Je...
ssica, I was impressed by the quality of work and professionalism that was demonstrated. I received all my images in a timely manor and could not be more thrilled with the quality of the work. I love that I have access to all of my pictures and can order any images that I want. I cannot speak more highly J&D Productions!
Jessica and her team were amazing! My wife and I are not photogenic people, but Jessica worked with us and definitely found our "good side." During our engagement shoot, she even t...
ook our favorite picture (me riding a raccoon statue) by allowing us be us! She helped capture so many memories during our big day and played an integral part in keeping us on schedule. Her experience was apparent when we came across various situations and she dealt with each one like a champ! I would highly recommend J&D Productions to anyone!
We hired Jessica without looking at anyone else. We knew J & D was who we wanted to use. We had many friends used them and recommended them. Could not be happier with the service w...
e received. We used them for our engagement, bridals and wedding photography. Always quick to respond. Loved the pictures we have received so far. Loved working with them all. Thank you so much!
Very helpful and patient. Took a lot of pictures. Very professional.
As a venue owner I am always relieved when I find out our couples have hired J&D to do their photo and/or video. Not only because they do an amazing job and their photos & videos a...
re always so lovely and artistic, but because they are a true pleasure to work with. Always dependable, on time, professional and have a great positive attitude. They are also really respectful of the other professionals they work with and treat our venue buildings & furnishings with the utmost respect. I know anyone that hires them will be happy with their choice! I can tell you if I were getting married now I would choose them, and I meet ALOT of photographers and videographers. Our Couples always have beautiful photos and/or videos and we always enjoy working with J&D
As a wedding coordinator, I work with many, many photographers. J&D is always one of my favorites to work with! They always do a beautiful job capturing our couples' big day, and c...
an really shoot in any kind of setting (indoor and outdoor, sunny or cloudy, etc). I also love that all of their clients get a sneak peak within a week or two of their wedding. I highly recommend Jessica and her team!
I cannot recommend Jessica and her team enough. J&D Productions shot my Bridal Portraits, our Wedding day and also did our cinematography. Every person we worked with were professi...
onal, fun and quick to respond to any questions we had. Before the wedding we ran through the day-of timeline to ensure we were all on the same page time-wise and that we had covered all of the shots we wanted. The day-of felt so seamless, it was magical! Jessica kept us on schedule, and double checked our shot list often throughout the night to make sure nothing was missing. When they weren’t with us or directing us, it felt like they weren’t even there but managed to capture everything we wanted. All of our shots were perfect and accounted for—and they turned out so beautifully! Within 10 days we received a sneak peek and all of our photos in about 4 weeks. It was such peace of mind knowing we were working with an amazing, fun, talented, professional and trust worthy team to capture our special day. Do yourself a favor and make this part of your planning easy! Have that peace of mind and look into J&D Productions. We are beyond in love with our day, and have more than amazing photos to look back on forever. Thank you J&D Productions, we are obsessed! Highly recommend!!
They are absolutely amazing! We love our photos!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! This group is so awesome and very professional!! They made our Daughters day soooo special and did not miss one moment from start to end!!!! We can relive this ...
beautiful perfect day over and over again thanks to J&D.
We were on the fence about a videographer as we already had a photographer. So glad we decided to get both. J&D did an amazing job and we couldn't be happier with our video.
Absolutely loved working with J&D Productions. They are very flexible and worked with me to capture every special moment. My wedding vision was as important to them as it was to me...
and they captured it beautifully. I cannot be more proud of my photos and how they turned out.
If you are wanting the best then J&D is the company you want for your Big Day . Jessica and her crew go above and beyond and somehow amazingly captures every moment without you eve...
n knowing they are around. She did our engagement photos as well as our wedding and she will be our only photographer for any special occasion. J&D are Top notch photographers and show beautiful works of art with their video highlights. Their professionalism and craft shine through on every photo they take!
J&D was absolutely wonderful to work with. They understood our needs and happily met them. Our first meeting took place with my daughter in California and me sitting in their offic...
e. They video-chatted her in and took the time to make sure she was seeing everything I was. We hired them for the entire day to capture everything. From the guys enjoying their time at Top Golf and a surprise arrival of a groomsman, to the girls arriving at the venue and every shot in between until the very last sparkler was out. Fabulous, professional, fun, they were everywhere!! Highly recommend!
J&D Productions are awesome to work with. Jessica was meticulous with scheduling the photos for the day. She made sure that she had plenty of photographers to capture my son’s wed...
ding. She made sure everyone was where they needed to be. Jessica is a genius behind the camera. Jessica took so many gorgeous pictures it was extremely difficult to make choose which photos to keep! Sadly, we couldn’t keep them all. I highly recommend J&D Productions to everyone! You will never regret your choice.
Over the past year we have worked with J&D Productions for our engagement pictures, bridal pictures, and wedding day pictures/video. On the day of our engagement pictures, Jessica ...
was on the way to the photo shoot and got in a minor fender bender, but she called me right away to tell me that Dave was on his way to fill in. I believe any other vendor would have rescheduled the photo shoot, but they went above and beyond to honor their scheduled commitment to us. For the bridal pictures it was one of those stormy, cloudy, rainy days in Houston and Dave was able to take some amazing shots that looked like it was even sunny outside! For the big day, Jessica kept us on schedule and made sure we captured all the photos we had discussed in our meeting. They put out a sneak peak of our pictures in just 1 week after our wedding and they already look amazing! Every session we have done with them we have been amazed at the quality and quantity of pictures we get to choose from. They are the most understanding, kind, and thoughtful team to work with and I'm so glad we had the honor of working with both of them this past year!
Jessica was excellent since the first initial meeting to see what her company had to offer, she made me know that she could work with us in whatever we needed from video to photos ...
to budget and most importantly wedding advice. Her team is amazing, the day of the wedding she made me feel relaxed and I knew all of the precious moments were going to be captured- she was very patient and organized and that's what you need on your wedding day. I was not wrong since I just recently got my photos back and I'm IN LOVE! I would choose them all over again and I'm looking forward to growing my business with them in the future!
Jessica and her team do great work. They are very professional and easy to work with. They have different packages to choose from to customize however you like. They are very organ...
ized and detailed to ensure they get all the shots you request. Also very experienced and have excellent recommendations for different poses. Jessica is passionate about her work and fun to work with. I love our sneak peek photos and can’t wait to see the rest of the beautiful shots her and her team captured. Would definitely recommend them for your special event!!
Choosing J&D Productions was the easiest decision we made in the entire wedding planning process! We booked them first before we did anything else, including our venue, and they he...
lped us make the best decisions throughout the planning process. We sat for hours looking through photos of venues where they had shot before to help us decide on the perfect place for our special day. It was truly personalized service for our needs and wants and I knew I could call at any time with questions, concerns, or panic moments and Jessica and Dave would be there with a solution! They were truly wonderful and made our day stress-free and captured the most beautiful moments. As far as products, we are highly pleased with all of our photographs, videos, and highlights! We will cherish these moments forever through the photographs and video documentation captured by J&D Productions. Thank you so much for being a part of our special day!
We had a very pleasant experience with J&D Productions. The decision was made after meeting with Jessica, who answered all our questions and took her time with showing us what they...
had done at other weddings. We liked that they were a family business and had done many weddings at the venue we had chosen. We worked with both Jessica and David and found them to be very accommodating. I would recommend J&D Productions!
J&D were beyond wonderful! They captured our special day flawlessly and helped make sure we got all the shots we wanted to have of our special day. We would without a doubt recomme...
nd J&D Productions to capture your memories.
Where do I begin? When we got engaged I don’t know much about wedding planning but I did know I would not let anyone else photograph it but J&D. We decided to go with photography &...
videography. They also did my bridals. Thanks to my photography, Nikki, I felt like the most beautiful bride in the world. She was so kind and focused, plus extremely creative!! We also did a “My Love Story” which was a HUGE hit. It will be something we always go back to watch and reminisce. The young man who did our love story and also our videography was awesome! We are so pleased with choosing J&D, there was never a second we had to worry about a thing thanks to them. Instead of recommending, I would demand if i could that you book them, haha! You will NOT be disappointed. Your pictures are the main thing you get out of your wedding day, choose wisely and believe me when I say, there is no better team than J&D! They went above and beyond for us, and we will forever be grateful.
They shot our wedding in April 2016 and I can't say enough good things about them! Jessica is great! She's extremely organized and professional, doesn't add any stress to the weddi...
ng, instead she took a ton of stress out of my wedding! It felt like some of my good friends were shooting our wedding! They had a preview of photos we could enjoy a week after our wedding so we didn't have to wait forever to see pictures. The quality of the pictures and video they did for us is just outstanding. They are worth every single penny! I would recommend j&d to anyone and everyone!!! I wish I could rate them 10 stars!
J&D Productions was AMAZING to work with and we absolutely love our wedding photos. They did my bridal pictures as well as our wedding. They shot every little detail and were able ...
to capture so many great candid shots! Jessica was so great and easy to work with. She went out of her way to ensure that we got all of the pictures (and then some!) that we wanted! The whole team was AMAZING! Our guests even noticed their professionalism!! If you are looking for a photographer, I would highly recommend J&D Productions to you!!! Thank you J&D Productions for capturing our day!!
They were amazing and the footage (especially the drone footage) was amazing!
They were super attentive to our requests and made us feel super special.
We could not recommend Jessica and her team more! We hired J&D Productions for both our engagement shoot and our big day. They were even able to travel to San Antonio to do our eng...
agements at our favorite spot in town. The whole team was wonderful to work with and all communication was quick and easy leading up to our wedding. They were great about answering our questions and making us feel comfortable and worry free! We were a little nervous about posing for all of the photos, but they made us feel completely at ease. We worked through shot lists, special requests, and inspiration for the big day so we knew everything would be perfect. The team arrived early to our wedding, kept us on schedule, and they were incredibly detail oriented, making sure every shot was perfectly set up. We were able to enjoy our big day with the confidence that we would get all the photos we wanted, and they did all of this without interrupting our experience like unfortunately I have seen at other weddings. I hardly knew they were there, but they captured everything! And WOW the photos came out even better than we imagined. We received a sneak peek first and then all of our images and we could not be happier with our photos and with our whole experience working with J&D Productions. We were so pleased that they captured all of the action, the special details, and our guests, above and beyond what we had asked for!
They are amazing!!!! Such a sweet, talented, and organized company! We have been married several months and we still receive compliments on our photos! I will be using J&D for our ...
newborn pictures as well.
Before we ever had a wedding date set, I knew I wanted J&D Productions to capture our special day! At our initial meeting, Jessica proved that she would not only be our photographe...
r, but that she would also be a forever friend. She is the most passionate, hard-working, dedicated and fun person to work with. For our engagement photos, she made our vision come to life when we were able to take photos at our high-school, where we first started dating. She is always willing to try new ideas and can make anyone feel comfortable while doing so. She has calmed my nerves every time and given me confidence to be a beautiful Bride. On our wedding day, Jessica and her team did an amazing job staying on schedule and organized. We had to retake Groomsmen photos and even added a last minute first look with my brother! It’s not only about the memories we have but also about having photos to look back on and relive the moments through - J&D Productions has given us just that. Highly recommended!!
J&D was who I knew I wanted all along to do our wedding photography and videoing. Their work is absolutely amazing! They are so professional and make everything so natural! Highly ...
recommend!
J&D did an amazing job on our wedding photos and video! They also did my bridal portraits and were so patient with our rambunctious groomsmen the day of the wedding! We LOVE the vi...
deo and the highlight video and got everything back in a good amount of time even-though we were the ones slowing the process by picking our music late. The ONLY regret I have is not adding extra hours to get more photos and video of the reception after the party really got going. We booked them until 9:30 and I feel it would've been worth it to have them there at least another hour. I will recommend their services to my family and anyone else I know who will be getting married soon. Thank you guys for catching all the perfect moments!!
We decided to work with J&D productions based on a recommendation from our wedding venue. We're SO glad we did! I did my bridals with them and they photographed our wedding day. Je...
ssica, Dave, and their team are wonderful! The pictures from both looked amazing! I'm still getting compliments. They're very prepared and organized and have a lot of good ideas/tips if you're not sure about things. They were very accommodating and easy to work with. They always replied to my emails promptly and answered all my questions. We were on a budget for our wedding and were able to pick from the different packages they offer that would fit in our budget. I would highly recommend them to anyone for their wedding day!
