Jen did our engagement and wedding photos and they all turned out incredible! My husband and I are not super comfortable in front of the camera but she made the whole process easy ...
for us and had the perfect balance of giving us instructions for how to look better while still making us feel comfortable and natural. She captured our first look perfectly, and the candids from our reception are so fun. Her prices are also very competitive and we liked how transparent she was with pricing. Thank you, Jen!!

d have fun with and could make us not look awkward, and Jen delivered!
I loved my experience with JMay Photography! I first met Jen when she did my senior photos about 10 years ago. I loved how she used the lighting to make the photos look natural yet...
dreamy! When I started the search for a wedding photographer in June of 2018, I knew exactly what I wanted. We hired JMay Photography and could not be happier! She did our engagement photos, my Bridal portraits, and the Wedding day. My husband and I had so much fun shooting with her. She made us feel relaxed and the photos looked so beautiful. My Bridal portraits are out of the world amazing! She has a gift for working with the surroundings, lighting, the dress, and the bride. Just stunning!
The wedding photos are amazing! She photographed everything from the bridal party getting ready, to special moments with my mom, to sunset photos with my husband. I didn't have to worry about anything except enjoying our day! She brought in a second photographer which was awesome.
Once the photos were done, she was fantastic about edits! I was a little picky, and she was so sweet about it. I love that she gave a flash drive with all of the digital copies as well. So great!
She is a joy to work with and her photos are spectacular! I highly recommend JMay Photography!

around! Wedding planning can be overwhelming and I'm so thankful we had a photographer that truly cared about us and helped keep me calm. :) We have had so many compliments on our photos, and we definitely plan to use her again for family pictures in the future!

e made me feel so comfortable.
It is one thing to take good photos and another to be able to tell a story in one single shot. Jens photos tell a story. She knows the right time to take the photo and make it look stunning. I now have so many beautiful photos of my wedding day because of Jen. She made it so easy to work with her.
I would definitely recommend to anyone!
I am a groom and I usually do not like my pictures taken. Pictures on the day of our wedding were something I didn't have to worry about. Jen made it quite fun and our photos look ...
great too! My wife will probably hold it to me every time she asks for family pictures. And I'll say, only if we can use Jen!
We are so excited to have Jen as our photographer!! Her work is lovely and timeless!!

en immediately put me at ease and was extremely easy to talk to and work with. She listens to requests and does all she can to fulfill them. We had her shoot our wedding as well as my bridal portraits, and the pictures are phenomenal. Her work is great, and she's a good person to work with - quick to respond to emails/calls, always kept us in the loop, and had our pictures to us the week we returned from the honeymoon! I will be recommended her to everyone I know getting married!

She is a great listener and really cares about the feel and result the bride and groom are going for. She took great pictures of our business, 4 Flashes Photo Booth, and send me the files without blinking an eye for us to use on our website. I can't wait to work with her again. Oh, by the way, her photographs are fun, original, quirky and just simply gorgeous!

the most about using J May Photography is the way Jen works with you to flush out your own style and flair. She just doesn't put you in stereotypical positions and poses. She actually wants the photos to reflect your own personality. Before I selected Jen to shoot my wedding I contacted several other photographers but after several calls I was still unsure. After talking to Jen I knew she was the right choice. It was as though we were on the same page when it came to what I wanted for my wedding. Also she has a certain lively characteristic and is so personable that she is just fun to be around. I highly recommend J May Photography for anyone who wants the pictures of their special day to be perfect. 5 stars
