James and his wife Ellie were incredible photographers. Everyone that saw our wedding photos said how incredible the photos were. We met James at a wedding event before we even sec...
ured a date and officially booked him a little over a year out from our wedding date. It’s so beneficial having a two person team, while James was taking most of the photos Ellie was helping with lighting, my gown and veil, etc. I’m so grateful for them to have these photos forever.
The best photographer ever! We hired James for my daughter’s wedding and I couldn’t have been happier. Prior to the wedding he made sure to meet with us to ensure what our expectat...
ions were and what kind of pictures we wanted. He didn’t miss anything during the wedding and the pictures are absolutely AMAZING. We had the pictures back within a month of the wedding which was incredible as we were able to use them for Christmas presents. James is also very personable and fun to work with. Before he left for the night he came to ask and make sure there were no other pictures that we wanted or needed taken to ensure we had everything we wanted. His prices are absolutely reasonable and worth every single penny. We couldn’t be happier he was the photographer we chose for my daughter’s special day. Thank you for capturing such amazing memories that we’ll be able to cherish forever!
Jim was absolutely WONDERFUL to work with for our Oct. 2022 wedding. He was easily available to answer any questions we had, so kind and pleasant to work with, and helped us as a b...
ride and groom to feel calm and comfortable on our big day. Not to mention our photos turned out simply stunning, capturing so many details that will always be cherished! Huge thanks to Jim for everything!!
James and his wife Ellie are a fantastic wedding photography couple. If you’re looking for a photographer that is going to get natural shots and not feel like they are intruding in...
your day, James is the artist you want. Responsive, great demeanor, and accountable to ensuring you get the shots you requested on your big day. James was really pleasurable to work with and accommodating to all requests. You need a pillar of calmness on your wedding day, and James is a great photographer at that and makes taking photos fun. You know, like you can tell when someone enjoys their art/work and making it with you, and that is what you’ll get with James. Awesome photos and moments captured. When it came to the wedding album creation, a seamless process of collaborating on it together with James, after they’ve already taken a stab at creating a photo layout for your day. Great cloud photo sharing method to easily view and download photos.
I would absolutely recommend James to anyone

ng up the the wedding we had multiple planning phone calls and we completely trusted them to get the best shots. We loved how our engagement photos turned out and can't wait to see the wedding photos! So glad we chose them to work with us!
I cannot say enough about how wonderful James and Ellie were. They come with multiple cameras and shoot from different angles so you get a wide variety of pictures. They captured e...
very moment of my big day. I honestly think we have a picture of every guest, and every important moment. James especially was in all the action and got some fantastic candids. All of our pictures were so beautiful, and it's so hard to pick which ones we love. I really appreciate how helpful James and Ellie were. We met a few weeks before the wedding to go over the timeline and everything, and they helped us make sure we had enough time for all of our pictures. We had a lot of family portraits, and they made quick work of it. I really wanted some "golden hour" shots. The weather cooperated and they got some really cool shots as the sun was setting. They were the perfect photographers, and I can't wait to see you how the album they put together turns out. I would recommend them to anyone.
My husband and I were married at Saint Michaels Parish in Wheeling and had our reception at Oglebay and oh my goodness I cannot say enough excellent words about Jim and Ellie! Firs...
t, their work truly speaks for itself because that is why we hired them for our wedding at Oglebay. They know the layout and the great shots to get. However, the service he and Ellie brings his beyond amazing. They are such a dynamic duo truly there to capture the special day and make memories! They listen to what types of photos you want, I laid on the ground and had leaves thrown at me, to making the experience genuine and comfortable! From the few sneak peeks of photos we have seen, I cannot wait to see more! Thank you Jim and Ellie!
Jim and Ellie were absolutely amazing to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone who is getting married. They were efficient and made sure to get the shots I wanted w...

an amazing snapshot in time. My wife and I had a wonderful time having our photos taken as well. If you are looking for someone to take your wedding photos, look no further!

ptured all the important moments (and every other little detail in between) and they did so without interfering in the flow of the day. Their prices were more than fair based on the great amount of time they spent working with us. They were available from the beginning to the end of the day without us having to worry about any limitations on coverage. They spent a lot of time leading up to the event assisting with our timeline, which greatly contributed to everything being so seamless on our wedding day. Our engagement session provided a wonderful opportunity to get more comfortable working with them, which made our wedding day photos even better. We also got an amazing photo that perfectly captured our personalities, which we used as a signature book at our reception. They took great care editing the photos, preparing the photo book, and sitting down with us to make sure everything was exactly as we wanted, which resulted in an amazing storybook of our big day that we often enjoy looking at. We received numerous compliments on the photo book, the prints, and the photos we’ve shared online. Thanks again Jim and Ellie for perfectly capturing our wedding day!
We loved everything about our experience with Jim and Ellie! They were so kind and knowledgeable. Our pictures turned out amazing and it was such an easy process. I really apprecia...
ted that we had a phone call to go over last minute details a few weeks before, and that they took the time to meet with us after to make our album exactly what we wanted. I couldn’t recommend them enough!
The best decision we made on our wedding day was choosing Jim and Ellie to photograph our day and capture all the special moments. They could not have done a better job capturing ...
our personalities and the day. We have gotten countless complements on the photographs. The pictures are elegant and timeless. Jim and Ellie were completely professional the entire time, and I hardly even knew they were there. They did a great job making you feel comfortable. They are also very flexible and willing to work with you. We planned our wedding from out of state and only met with them once to do engagement pictures (which I highly recommend, as well). They made this process so easy for us, and we were able to do all of our planning via email and phone calls. That was a huge bonus for us since we could not make it back to the area very frequently. You cannot go wrong with James Carl Photography! I highly recommend them!!!
Hiring Jim and Ellie to be our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions my wife and I made for our wedding. I could run out of room talking about all the great things I ...
want to say about them and the experience we had. Jim and Ellie not only delivered exceptional photos for our engagement and wedding, but the service they provided is unmatched. Both Jim and Ellie spent hours making sure we got the shots we wanted for our engagement session as well as our wedding. They took the time to get to know us as a couple and made us feel like we were working with friends and made this process go perfectly and extremely enjoyable.
Every meeting we had with Jim and Ellie was nothing short of pleasant. The amount of passion and skill they show in their craft left us with such reassurance. I’m sure most can agree, during this whole wedding process you have many stresses on how things will go and turn out. I can assure you that by hiring Jim and Ellie, their services will be the least of your worries. We left every session and meeting with Jim and Ellie knowing we were going to get perfect photos and a perfect experience, and we did.
The day of the wedding Jim and Ellie did a great job of getting all the shots we had requested we would like at the ceremony as well as the reception. Our day was very timeline oriented and Jim and Ellie played a HUGE part on making sure things went perfect. Our bridal party still talk about how much fun they had doing pictures with Jim and Ellie and what an exceptional job they did.
Following our wedding, my wife and I have had such busy schedules we finally were able to meet with Jim at their studio to go over our album. We were beyond impressed throughout our whole experience with them, but this was the icing on the cake. Jim took the time to go through our images to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. On top of going through the images for our album, he made note of certain images he knew were very important to us. To me that showed they care more than just to photograph your wedding, but to show they genuinely care about what was important to us and made us the perfect album.
The experience we had with Jim and Ellie is one of the best we have ever had. It is rare to find people who are so skilled, readily available, and genuinely care about giving you the perfect experience and product. I joked with my wife that I was bummed out after we left the studio reviewing our album that we won’t get to deal with them as often. If anyone is on the fence of who to use as their wedding photographer or going between photographers I can assure you that once you meet with Jim and Ellie you will stop your search. Beyond the general experience I had, I told my wife, Jim and Ellie, I knew we hired the perfect photographers when I looked at every image they showed us and I knew exactly how I felt in each picture in that moment on our wedding day. We can’t thank Jim and Ellie enough for what a phenomenal job they did and for being such great people!

g photographer, it was important to us that we found a photographer who could expertly capture some of the most important moments of our lives, but who is also genuine and personable. That's exactly what we found in Jim and Ellie at James Carl Photography. From the first time we walked into their studio, they were welcoming and easy to get along with. They took the time to get to know us, as individuals and as a couple, and our families.
Jim and Ellie went above and beyond to make our experience a memorable (and photographed) one. Without hesitation, Jim and Ellie agreed to travel two hours from Wheeling and spent an entire Saturday capturing our engagement photos at our home, around our neighborhood, and even at our favorite restaurant. Leading up to the wedding, Jim took the time to field several phone calls discussing the type of photographs we wanted and where we wanted to get photographs, and helped us select the picture perfect location for our wedding arch.
On our wedding day, Jim and Ellie were professional and organized. They brought calm to the chaos by keeping us on task, rolling with the punches, and managing a large bridal party with ease. They took time to make adjustments so that each picture was captured perfectly - even a large family photograph with over 30 family members. Their creativity and professionalism resulted in breathtaking photographs.
Throughout the entire process, Jim and Ellie were very responsive and were flexible with our schedule as out-of-towners - setting up conference calls and late-night meetings so that we could review our album. Our experience with James Carl Photography was worth every penny and an excellent value for such a personal and professional experience.
Thanks to James Carl Photography, we have a wonderful wedding album full of incredible photographs that take us right back to those special moments of our wedding day.
