Jay Dee Photography

apher. To any couples looking for a photographer please do not look any farther, you will not find anyone better!! First of all, she has the most calming energy. Just having her around made my mom and I feel so relaxed. Not only that but she is so easy going and is completely flexible on whatever we wanted to do and when our plans/timeline changed multiple times throughout wedding day. Everyone said one of her greatest assets was her calming personality in all the craziness and stress especially with a large wedding party. She also knows how to pull everyone together. We had 10 bridesmaids and 10 groomsmen and somehow she had all the guys and girls perfectly organized and in-line for pictures. Even with all the chaos she pays attention to little details, making sure bow ties, hair, bouquets, boutonnières, and tux jacket buttons are perfect. Also, we had somewhat of a destination wedding (my husband and I were in Missouri and North Carolina and our wedding was in Laguna Beach, California). This obviously made planning trickier and I was very nervous about hiring a photographer that wasn't in/from/familiar with the area. If you are in the same position, I just want to say again that Jessica went above and beyond. She flew in early and totally familiarized herself with the area. She found perfect spots for photos. Also, look her up on Instagram because she has done so many destination weddings so she knows what she's doing. Finally, Jessica is SO much more than just an incredible photographer, she was literally my personal assistant that day. She was there to help hold my dress, walk in my heels, and comfort me throughout the day. She was more than I could’ve ever expected or asked for. My husband and I are now looking for events/occasions just so we can have her back! I fully recommend her and it was a pleasure to have her photograph the best day of my life.

ing person you could ever work with. She knows her stuff! She is prompt with all questions you may have! Hands down, one of the best decisions we made was choosing her as our photographer for our wedding!

hearsal in with the pictures. She was also so positive and made us feel really comfortable. Would highly recommend for any wedding.

all the hots we wanted and she helped us pose and made it fun! Highly recommended Jessica for all your photography needs!

ith my husband that Jessica captured beautifully. If you’re using the Knot to find a photographer & found Jessica, take this as a sign!

t wait to see the pictures! When the day came where she was finished with editing I was shook...I never could've imagined the pictures to turn out as stunning as they did. If you're hesitant to try a boudoir shoot because you are questioning if it is for you... DO IT WITH JESSICA! She is amazing! I am so happy with how everything turned out! :)

iful and can’t wait to see the rest. Highly recommend!

. She helped manage get all of our family shots at the wedding and it was a long list haha. Our wedding day will always be remembered and we are so happy she captured the day.

shoot and wedding with Jay Dee Photography and we were in love with every session! She really takes the time to get the right shot and spends a lot of time with you, the sessions were pleasantly long! The process was so easy and she is very fast at getting your photos back to you, always got them back within the time frame. We are obsessed with the photos from our wedding and can't wait to get a photo album made!

aphers, because Jessica was the perfect fit! She was super responsive - setting up a phone call right away to get to know us as a couple and what we'd like to capture the day-of! She even sat down and had lunch with us when we were in Charleston last December to finalize details for the wedding! She truly goes above and beyond! The day-of was incredibly hectic; I was running late, which meant our timeline got pushed back, but she was super gracious and totally understanding! She posed us so naturally that I sometimes forgot we were taking photos! She was with us for the majority of the reception and took photos of EVERYONE. I even saw her in a balcony at one point, getting a group shot of the crowd! You will not go wrong hiring her for your event; she's a true sweetheart and incredibly kind! Jessica, thank you SO much! :)

hly recommend.

d for two very camera shy people thats really saying alot!! Even when we had to reschedule due to covid-19 she stayed so positive and was so easy to work with! I can't recommedd her enough!!!

unds like a one man band. Every other vender that wasn't able to show up for our wedding gave us the deposit back. But Jay Dee was the only vender not to give us a refund. SCAMMMMMMMMM. STAY AWAYYYYYYYYY.

en more flexible and relaxed. She was more than willing to go to different locations for getting ready photos, and was such a calm energy on such a hectic day! We got our sneak-peak photos so quickly and loved being able to immediately relive the big day. We could not recommend Jessica enough to be your wedding photographer!

was extremely helpful and attentive throughout the whole planning process, there was not one time where she has not went above and beyond to exceed my expectations. She photographed my bridal portraits as well as our wedding and even gave us a sneak peak the very next day! For someone as excited as me to see the photos it was a very pleasant surprise. She made us feel so comfortable and special on our wedding day and she has an amazing personality. I can not say enough great things about her!!

ampagne for us to pop! She was great at giving us direction to create beautiful photos. We could not recommend her enough!

ut!! She captured the whole day/night perfectly and I got so many compliments from our guests about how awesome our photographer was. She was fun to work with, very professional and got all the shots that we wanted. Her assistant had to be a little late due to car trouble, and we didn’t even realize the difference, Jessica is that good!! I recommend her 100%!!

t photo back drops. Downtown Charleston was pretty crowded and yet the photos look like we were the only ones there!! Jessica really captured "us" and has made it very difficult to choose which photo to use for our save the dates :) We can't wait for her to photograph our wedding next year!

get the rest!

red it all perfectly in the photos! On the day of the wedding she was in the zone, was super flexible and worked with us when we had to change up the photo list at the last minute after the wedding started later than anticipated, and again captured every moment I wanted to remember. I specifically asked her for good candid shots from the dance floor, and she went above and beyond--I was in tears laughing at them. She got the sneak peek as well as the entire gallery edited and sent over to us way faster than I was expecting, which was such a fun surprise. She is the sweetest, and I would recommend her to anyone who wants the most gorgeous photos of their wedding day!

as ready sooner than expected. The end product was so much more than we could have asked for. If you need and wedding photographer then you need Jess. She will always be my #1 call when I need a photographer in the future.

ots, and quality is amazing. Our photos are timeless and we can’t wait to decorate our new home with them. We will forever cherish these memories. Thank you so much!
