Deciding on a photographer was one of the most important things for us when it came to wedding planning, and the second we talked to Jackie we knew she was the one. Through all sta...
ges of the process, her thought, care, and love for what she does shines through.
In the chaos of the wedding day, Jackie and Matt were in the calming presence we didn’t know we needed. We hired photographers but what we got was so much more. They were there to ground us, style us (Matt helped all the groomsman with their bow ties) and empower us. Both my husband and I felt slightly awkward in front of the camera, and Jackie made us feel beyond confident. There aren’t enough words to recommend Jackie enough and we truly cannot imagine our wedding day without her!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jackie! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond in every possible way. She even traveled to our wedding venue well before the ...
big day to explore the location, brainstorm ideas, and thoughtfully plan everything. She was incredibly professional, organized, communicative, and genuinely invested in making our wedding perfect.
What we appreciated most was her calm and reassuring presence. She made us feel completely at ease, yet knew exactly when to be assertive and take charge to keep everything running smoothly. She even brought an assistant to help coordinate the day! Her support went far beyond photography, from offering countless helpful vendor recommendations to personally helping us find our videographer.
And the photos? Absolutely breathtaking! She captured the emotions, beautiful candid moments, and every little detail so perfectly. We loved every single photo, and narrowing down our favorites for our album was nearly impossible!
We feel incredibly lucky to have had Jackie as our photographer. Her talent, kindness, dedication, and professionalism exceeded all our expectations.
My advice? Stop your search and just call Jackie! If you're lucky enough to have her available for your wedding, book her without hesitation. You won't regret it! She was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Mona and Dave
Choosing Jackie as our wedding photographer was hands down one of the best decisions we made during our entire wedding planning process. From our engagement shoot to our destinatio...
n wedding in Cancun, she exceeded every expectation.
She has an incredible eye for detail and captured every moment so beautifully and authentically. It wasn’t just about the photos- though they are stunning- it was about how she made us feel. She made the entire experience so comfortable, easy, and even fun (which is saying a lot coming from two people who don’t love being in front of the camera!).
She truly understood our vision and brought it to life in a way that felt effortless. Looking back on our photos now, we’re just so grateful to have had her there with us. The images are more than just photos, they're memories we get to relive for the rest of our lives.
If you're considering booking her, do it. You won't regret it.
Picking a photographer was one of the first and most important things on our wedding checklist.
We spoke with a few photographers and right away we knew Jacqueline was the one! He...
r organization from the very beginning was extremely helpful and she took the time to learn what we envisioned and guided us to think about what else we could dream up. And she DELIVERED!
Three days of capturing footage and she didn’t miss a beat. Not only did she capture amazing footage, but she made me feel so relaxed and like everything was happening perfectly on the days of our wedding events. She has an amazing ability to observe what’s going on around her and capture the feeling. For example, she listened to our vows while taking photos that I look at now and feel like I’m back in that moment.
Not only do her photos bring back the most special moments of our lives, but they also reflect moments we weren’t able to see ourselves. She was able to capture all of it and I cannot express enough how much I enjoyed working with her and how much I will cherish these photos forever.
I cannot express how amazing Jackie was to work with for our wedding in September 2024. Planning a wedding is extremely stressful, but Jackie made every part of the process a true ...
joy — from the first consultation call to the moment I had our final wedding photos in my hand.
Each and every detail was so thought out, intentional, and tailored to us as a couple. Jackie is a true professional, but she prioritizes kindness and approachability in a way that made us feel so relaxed and cared for on our wedding day. She truly took the time to get to know us, and it really shines through in the photos.
Our photos are beautiful. We have received so many compliments on how they turned out. Most importantly though, Jackie perfectly captured our wedding day and I’m so grateful to have these memories to look back on for a lifetime.
Thank you Jackie!
TLDR: Jackie and Matt were absolutely the best wedding photographers that we could’ve asked for! Our photos ended up being absolutely stunning and the experience working with them ...
was 10/10. They were my favorite vendors to work with for our wedding!
Photography was one of the most important pieces of my wedding and I couldn’t have made a better choice. Something I didn’t fully consider beyond the quality of the photos themselves was the personality of the photographer impacting your wedding day experiences and I am so thankful Jackie was by my side the whole, long 18-hour day to keep me calm when plans went askew.
From start to finish, Jackie was so quick and transparent and so professional. She knew exactly what questions to ask and how to best pose me to capture my best angles. A special note about the fact that me and my husband’s families have very different skin tones, but we all looked beautiful in the photos. It’s hard to put into words how thankful I am for them, but I can certainly say if you hire them for any event, you won’t regret it!
Jackie's photography is absolutely stunning and she's a joy to work with! Super responsive, thoughtful & thorough. Her photos really captured our love for each other in our engagem...
ent shoot, and she offered a variety of poses and backdrops so we had a lot of selection in the final gallery. She was also super quick at turning around the gallery, which is great because I couldn't wait to see the final product!! She went above & beyond to scope out the location ahead of time and was thoughtful with poses and placements that would work well with our substantial height difference. Would highly recommend Jackie!!
Jackie is an incredibly talented photographer and a sweet, kind, and patient person, and we are so grateful to have had her as a major part of our special day.
We knew from the mo...
ment we first spoke with her that she was a perfect fit for our wedding weekend. We not only connected on the vision we had for our wedding celebrations, but on a human level as well. She is empathetic, compassionate, and went above and beyond to capture all our special moments — she’s also become an amazing friend.
Equipped with incredible skill, class, and creativity, Jackie is a top-notch wedding photographer and would be an amazing addition to anyone’s special day. I’d do a second wedding if I could, just to be photographed by her again! I’ll definitely be hiring Jackie for all our photography moving forward — and we live 3,000 miles away.
I highly recommend Jackie, she is a talented photographer and her work speaks for itself! Wedding photography was a high priority for me and I value the artistry of it (especially ...
film photography), so picking a photographer was the hardest part of wedding planning for me since there are so many out there and I tend to notice every little detail. I found Jackie through Instagram and her style of photography instantly stood out to me in what I was looking for. She was very responsive, professional, and easy to work with. Also was very helpful when it came to helping with my wedding timeline. I remembered being afraid that it’ll rain on my wedding but she reassured me that it’ll be okay and stayed positive/calm. Overall, Jackie has an incredible eye for detail and she shoots film and digital (both came out stunning)! There were so many special moments/candids she captured perfectly. The photos we received are beautiful/timeless and we love all of them!
Where to even begin!...When my wife and I first stumbled upon Jacqueline's website and got a sense of her artistry & aesthetic we knew we'd be selecting them for wedding day! Every...
step of the process was seamless & we are eternally grateful for our photos. Jacqueline goes above & beyond to make sure you are comfortable throughout the entire process but also knows what she's looking for which is so crucial in getting the best photos that you will cherish forever. Seriously, look no further, Jacqueline and her husband are a gem!
I wanted to send a huge thank-you for making our wedding so perfect. From the very first phone-call that I had with you when you were incredibly understanding and encouraging about...
the challenges of planning a wedding during COVID, to your understanding about our postponement, and then to your calming and comforting presence on our wedding day... it was an absolute dream to work with you. You captured every moment of our wedding day perfectly and effortlessly and our photo album tells a perfect story of our day! We will cherish these photos for a lifetime! Thank you!
Jackie is incredible! My husband and I could seriously not be any happier with our wedding photos. No joke, we liked every...single...one!! I think it can be normal to get nervous ...
about how your photos will turn out on such a special day but with Jackie, there is no need to worry :) I could not recommend her enough. - Mackenzie Wright
The photos were absolutely stunning. My husband and I cried as we looked through them. I can not thank Jackie enough!! She was so amazing the day of- so calm, so helpful, and encou...
raging and on top of that she provided INCREDIBLE photos for us to reflect on and help us remember the day. She love what she does and you can tell. She is so very talented as well. HIRE HER and you won't regret it. Plus, our wedding was in March in Montana and she braved the cold storm with joy and professionalism!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. We are so grateful for you Jackie and all of your hard work.
Wow!! I can not sing enough praises about Jackie from Whiskers & Willows. We had the privilege of working with Jackie for our wedding at the Montage in Laguna Beach and from the ve...
ry beginning she was incredibly professional, personable, and we truly felt that she wanted to understand & capture our wedding as we had envisioned it. Her photographs online stood out to me from the beginning, but after meeting her - that sealed the deal for us. Although we had quite a few change of plans throughout 2020, Jackie was so encouraging, understanding, and worked with us as we rolled with the punches together. On our wedding day, Jackie was so on top of everything and made sure we had scheduled all the time we would need to capture those special moments with each other and with our families & friends. She is SO positive and makes you feel comfortable as yourself despite being behind a camera lens. Jackie quickly got us our photographs back and wow!! they totally exceeded all my expectations. She captured our day so above and beyond what we had hoped. I truly could not be happier with how they all came out!! It has been such a treasure to be able to look back at those photographs and immediately put myself back in those moments. All around she is THE BEST!!!
I highly recommend booking Jackie and Matt for your special day! From start to finish, the communication and experience was so professional. They are the friendliest photographers ...
and really made me, my husband, and everyone in our wedding so comfortable. Their style of photography is absolutely gorgeous. It's whimsical, timeless, and just straight up beautiful. They shot in both film and digital and thoroughly did their research to learn exactly what type of photos we were looking to leave our day with.
Jackie & Matt are truly exceptional photographers and modern day artists. As a budding photographer, I admired their film photography for quite some time. When I got engaged, I kne...
w I had to reach out! Their work is timeless, candid, airy, and whimsical. From a technical perspective, they achieve beautiful, crisp photos even in the most difficult, awful lighting situations. Every photo they deliver is truly a work of art.
From start to finish, they were extremely organized, professional, and caring. They were by far my favorite vendor because they knew how stressful it was to plan a wedding, so they cherished every detail. Jackie always responded promptly (calming my Type A nerves) and always did her 110% best to do whatever she could to accommodate for our special day. On the day of the wedding, they made us feel comfortable and fully captured the raw emotions of our love despite the chaos of the day.
Please do yourself a favor and book Whiskers & Willow, you won’t regret it! 💕

hat we met them to after the event, they made it an incredible experience. My wife and I recommend them to everyone. Thank you Jackie and Matt!
Amazing! Just look at their photos and you will make your decision. I can't say enough good things about Jackie and Matt!
We would recommend Whiskers and Willow Photography to any of our friends or family getting married in the San Diego or Seattle area! Jackie and Matt were amazing to work with. Comm...
unication with them was a breeze as Jackie answers emails so quickly, and it was so easy to schedule an appointment to meet with them and ask all our questions. In addition to their albums/blog on the website, they also sent us photos from their most recent weddings so we could look at photos from the ceremonies as well as receptions. They max out at 2 weddings per month so that they can put their full attention into the weddings - the turnaround time for us to get our engagement photos back was 2 weeks, and for our wedding photos was 6 weeks. They made sure to find out if we had any "must have" pics for the wedding and lists for family photos to ensure everyone was included that we requested, and came early to the venue to scout out the area. They are very well organized, prepared, and professional. They made us feel super comfortable and Jackie is great at giving as much direction as you need for the pics/posing. Our photos, picture box, and album all came out so beautiful. They are totally worth the price and are hands down our favorite vendor from our wedding. If we do anniversary or any other pics in the future we would definitely choose to work with them again.
Jackie and Matt are not only amazing photographers, but such wonderful human beings who cares about the couples they work with and are unbelievably kind and patient throughout the...
whole wedding process. We are so lucky to have them capture our wedding day because their work is so classic, timeless, and amazingly beautiful. Their talent and kind hearts are the reasons we just booked our one anniversary session with them as well! Thank you so much for all that you do Jackie and Matt!
Jackie and Matt were an absolute dream to work with. Their talent, professionalism, creativity, and masterful fine art photographs speak for themselves, but on top of it all Jackie...
and Matt are some of the most kind, gracious, easy-going, perceptive, and friendly people we've ever met. We are so lucky to have found Whiskers and Willow photography and would recommend them to anyone! Thank you endlessly, Jackie and Matt!
Jackie and Matt from Whiskers & Willow are absolutely incredible. Their whimsical, natural light photos speak for themselves, but what you can’t tell from the photos are how kind, ...
engaged and conscientious they are as people and as photographers. From the beginning, Jackie was super responsive, friendly and on top of every last detail. We knew we were in good hands. And on the day of, Jackie and Matt were like photo ninjas -– always in the right place at the right time to capture the most beautiful and important moments of our day.
They made us, camera shy folks that we are, at ease in front of the camera with their calming and reassuring presence. They gave us suggestions on simple things like where to stand and where to look, etc. It was a relief not to have to figure these things out on our own and because of their instruction, the photos came back looking amazing. They also captured an amazing breadth of types of photos from getting ready, to the ceremony, to candids of our guests, to detail shots. We were so thrilled when our gallery was ready; we couldn’t have asked for more beautiful photos to remember our special day! I cannot recommend Whisker & Willow Photography highly enough!
I came across Whiskers & Willow because I was looking for a photographer who shoots in a mix of film and digital. I specifically loved their light-filled, soft & dreamy style, and ...
once we met Jackie and Matt, we knew they were the ones! Jackie is super responsive and always on top of things. Having them as our photographers was one of the highlights of our wedding experience, and they were hands down our favorite vendor. My husband and I absolutely love all our engagement and wedding photos! Jackie and Matt are both easy-going and fun to work with. We’re not the best when it comes to posing, but they helped guide us and made us feel comfortable. It was a huge advantage to have a husband wife shooting duo. They worked together seamlessly and could capture moments from both the bride and groom’s side, making sure we got all the important shots throughout the wedding. A lot of people have told us our pictures are gorgeous, and it's all thanks to Jackie and Matt! They really went above and beyond, and we are so grateful to them both for capturing our special day. If you’re looking for an amazing wedding photographer, we highly recommend Whiskers & Willow!
Jackie and Matt are the best! My photos could not be more perfect and they made the whole process seamless. My husband and I feel uncomfortable when we are "posed" and my husband...
did not want to do a first look for fear of being uncomfortable, but Jackie and Matt listened to us and made us feel so comfortable. They took great shots throughout the whole wedding but somehow were invisible. Matt was even scaling rocks at one point to get shots. When we got our photos back we were blown away with how beautiful they are. We got married at a park and there were a lot of park-goers around and they were able to blur them out and focus on us and the wedding party. Communication was so easy and quick with Jackie and she even offered to help me submit my wedding to different websites. I cannot say enough great things about Whiskers & Willow Photography, BOOK THEM!
Just got my photos, early I might add, and all I can say is wow. They turned out exactly as we had hoped, if not better. Jackie and Matt were so great to work with and we're so gla...

s picking a photographer since they're a make or break piece of the wedding moments! We were able to FaceTime with them, they worked with our budget, very organized and on time. They made David & I very comfortable and guided us through our photos. I can't express how awesome it was to have two photographers to capture all of the great moments of our wedding & the sneak peak photos they released after the wedding. Our wedding photos were sent in short time & we couldn't be happier with them! Every single moment felt like it was captured! I would DEFINITELY recommend them to anyone and would use them again in the future for other photos!!
Working with Jackie was such a treat! I stumbled upon Whiskers & Willow on Pinterest when I was searching for a photographer to shoot my boudoir portraits for my upcoming anniversa...
ry and I am so happy I found them! Jackie was very professional, comfortable to be around, and I simply adore my portraits! I love that she is a hybrid photographer, shooting both film at digital during our session together. I would highly recommend Whiskers & Willow!
My fiance and I were lucky enough to win Whiskers & Willow's first giveaway for a 2 hour session at 2 different locations with Jackie and Matt! I knew their style was exactly what ...
I wanted (bright, crisp, and romantic), but we were worried we wouldn't be comfortable in front of the camera, because we had never done a photoshoot together. Jackie and Matt gave us tips on how to relax, where to look, and told us exactly which poses to do. Even when poses felt unnatural, we trusted their vision, and I am beyond happy with how the photos turned out! I am recommending them to everyone I know!

entire process. And the photos turned out amazing! They have that romantic, soft, and dreamy feel to them. Definitely exceeded our expectations. They are top notch!

Thank you again Jackie and Matt! :)

Where do I begin? Wow. My fiance & I are both so incredibly happy with how wonderfully our engagement pictures turned out! Jackie & Matt are so amazing! They were the perfect mesh ...
of professional and laid back- artistically creative but with good direction. We both felt so at ease and comfortable during our photo shoot with them. They gave just enough direction that we didn't feel awkward in front of the cameras but gave us enough space that we were able to relax, be ourselves and just have fun. Not too posed. I'd shown Jackie my Pinterest board for engagement shoot ideas I loved, and she'd scouted a location & showed up with an illustrated shot list to work from!! I was so impressed with how well prepared they were! From a perfectionist's standpoint, they exceeded my expectations. After we got our pictures back we couldn't believe how beautifully they turned out! I feel like a model! They weren't overly edited so it still looked like us. There was never a lag in communication, very quick turn around on the final pictures, and they are competitively priced. Wish we were getting married here, too, so we could use them on our wedding day! We couldn't be happier with Whiskers & Willow and would recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful photography!
