Jeff was AMAZING! It felt natural to work with him! He is fun and energetic, but not overwhelming, and he captured our special day perfectly! He even surprised us with some ice cre...
am! His experience and love for photography really shines through! We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer!
Jeff was the perfect addition to our wedding! He made even our most camera-shy guests feel comfortable and blended right in with our closest family and friends. Our only regret is ...
that we didn't book more time with him!
Jeff was amazing! He heard us with every detail we wanted for both engagement and wedding photos. He is so easy to talk to and relate to. By the end of our wedding we knew our wedd...
ing photos were placed in the right hands. He help keep both my husband and I calm all morning until we got to see each other at our first look. And when we needed a break from people he stole us away for photos so we could have some one on one time as well as getting great shoots. Jeff is honest and will tell you what he needs to give you what you are wanting. Every detail in the planning he covered to make it as easy as possible and least stressful for you. He has so many different options for at different prices that comes with so many different options.
Couldn't have had a better person do our photos! The amount we got it's so hard to pick a favorite.
Jeff was the most amazing photographer we could have ever asked for. His creative eye really shines and he made us feel so comfortable and confident! We were in fabulous hands the...
whole day of the wedding.
We hired Jeff for both our engagement photos and our wedding day. From the first time we reached out to him, it was immediately apparent how passionate and dedicated he is to provi...
ding you the best service and experience possible. Very shortly after we reached out, he sent a video message providing us details on the next steps. This was followed by a video meeting where we went over what we were looking for to help us capture our special day. We were originally drawn to Jeff after seeing his portfolio, and how he captured a friend’s wedding day. In our opinion, he brings a fresh, artistic style of photography. Our initial description of his work is that he is a photographer that shoots weddings, as opposed to a wedding photographer. This held true throughout our entire experience working with him. Leading up to the wedding day, Jeff provided us tips and advice for the big day. The tips always included a fun, entertaining anecdote that helped us prepare for our day. Whether it was our family, wedding guests, or the wedding party, everyone had nothing but positive things to say regarding their experience with Jeff. He brought great energy and vibes to our wedding day. He went above and beyond to capture the timeless moments of our special day. From bridal party photos, to action shoots on the dance floor, or our unique request for a "Vanderpump Rules" themed photo, Jeff knocked it all out of the park. We would recommend him to anyone looking to capture their special day. Jeff is a rockstar!!!
We loved working with Jeff and would recommend his talents to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Jeff was easy to work with and also gave us helpful wedding planning tips l...
eading up to wedding day. Additionally, several of our wedding guests couldn’t stop raving about how amazing Jeff was! BOOK WITH JEFF. You will have a wonderful time with amazing photos to show for it!
Jeff and his associate were so much fun to have the day of our wedding! He brought such a fun vibe to a stressful day leading up to the ceremony and really led the way for the vend...
ors. We are thrilled with our photos from the day and were able to purchase many as gifts for family this past Christmas which everyone LOVED! Absolutely recommend Jeff for your wedding or engagement photos, and the photobooth add-on was also amazing!
Jeff did an amazing job on our wedding day, his pictures are so beautiful, crisp and clear. He captured our wedding day with perfections. We have been recommending him to all our f...
amily and friends. Highly recommend.
Jeff was awesome with our wedding and we're glad we were able to get on his schedule. He was really personable and easily made us feel at ease during the pre-ceremony pictures and ...
shenanigans, and effortlessly worked with our day of coordinator to get all the family and friends pictures without a hiccup. Our guests didn't even wait until after our wedding to tell us how great Jeff was doing at the wedding, and whenever we show off the photos to folks who were at the wedding they all mention how awesome he was. We absolutely recommend Jeff to anyone looking, we had no issues and zero regrets working with him.
Jeff was an absolute blast capturing our wedding. He captured and helped create moments that we will now be able to cherish forever. Photo's are amazing.
My Husband and I had our wedding photos done by Jeff and the pictures alone were 10/10! For any couples looking to hire a wedding photographer, you’re not only going to get amazing...
photos but you’re also going to get a down to earth, energetic photographer who keeps the nerves at bay throughout the planning process and on the big day!
One of our main concerns about hiring a photographer was that our photos were going to turn out “posey” or unnatural looking due to awkwardness on our part, but Jeff made everything feel laid back and comfortable you would have thought he was a family friend we have known for years.
Jeff was exceptional and we are very happy with our photos. He was super fun and personable! Jeff is the type of happy supporting person you want around on your wedding day. He mad...
e us laugh and was an overall great person. I encourage anybody looking for photos to contact Jeff.

nyone!
Jeff has an artistic vision that brings your wedding story to life!! He was so fun, warm and interactive during our wedding photo session: He asked us “get to know you” questions...
, had us play games, and even do impersonations of one another, all the while he was capturing our personalities without “posing” us for the iconic photographs. Jeff truly is a GEM and the final photos were BEYOND worth it! HIRE HIM, you WON’T REGRET IT!!!!!
Jeff’s photos are spectacular. Not only did the photos of us turn out wonderful, but he had a really special eye for capturing special candid moments of all of our guests as well. ...
We knew the photos would be excellent because we saw his portfolio, but what we were not prepared for was how he played a pivotal role in our ability to enjoy the day. He is a wiz with making everyone feel comfortable, creating a fun lighthearted atmosphere, and rolling with the punches of a chaotic day. He was really supportive just as a person, checking in on us regularly, and he was a pleasure to have his presence around. I can’t recommend him highly enough for your photos, but also just as a companion throughout the stressful event.
Our wedding in August would not have been complete without Jeff. We appreciated all of his follow-up before the wedding, his direction during the day off, and his willingness to th...
ink outside of the box when it came to the pictures he took. The photos are beautiful, and he managed to capture the spirit of what our wedding was all about: my husband and I having the best day of our lives with close friends and family. We have had numerous people ask us to do a viewing party of the pictures he took, and everyone agrees about what a phenomenal job Jeff did. Please consider him for your wedding photography. On top of him being very good at what he does, he’s also a really nice, fun guy.
We had such an amazing experience working with Jeff Dose Photography for our engagement and wedding photos!! Jeff was so fun to work with and his creative vision aligned perfectly ...
with our preferences. We only needed to supply him with a few sample photos of what we were looking for and he nailed it!! We loved all of our photos and couldn't be happier with the results!!
Also, with us being newer to the spotlight in front of a camera we were a little nervous at the start but Jeff made quick work of making us feel very comfortable. He transformed the experience into something enjoyable, resulting in amazing candid photos that quickly became some of our favorites (see attached). We loved working with Jeff and would highly recommend to anyone else looking for a photographer! He's amazing to work with and the photos and memories he captures are priceless.
Thanks,
Rachel and Alec

with then and the photos turned out so good that we knew Jeff was the best! Once we got to work with him one on one, it exceeded all expectations! He is one of the kindest people we have met. He really loves love. He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and he has an eye for great shots! We had so much fun looking at our photos and had a hard time deciding which once’s to share, they are that good! He really captured the essence of our wedding day and was so efficient in capturing everything! A true professional and we would highly recommend him!
A true professional and artist. We absolutely loved working with Jeff, and you will too!
I could not have asked for a better person to trust with our wedding photography! Jeff is a fun and energetic guy who makes the sometimes awkward aspect of a photo session lively, ...
