Jennifer Ryals Photography

d have loved a little more coaching for poses. I am extra awkward and needed a little extra help with angles and looking natural haha . Outside of that, everything went great. Beautiful photos, and a really great person to work with!

nifer is one of those photographers that makes you feel so welcomed and takes a HUGEEEE weight off your shoulders as a Bride and Groom. On top of everything, COVID happened and is still happening and took over a huge part of our lives and everyone elses lives. But nonetheless God was on our side and our wedding happened!! Jennifer was always there, every text, every email... every instagram and Facebook post... SHE WAS THERE!! She is INCREDIBLY TALENTED and such a NATURAL photographer!! I am so so so so happy and blessed that my Husband and I had her as our wedding photographer, she captured every cute even serious little moments of us and it was magical!! my husband and I HIGHLY recommend Jennifer as your wedding photographer, her work is so beautiful and her soul is truly amazing!! you are def getting the quality of work and talent for what you pay and I think that is so great. my husband and I have these beautiful memories captured FOREVER because of Jennifer... seriously cannot say enough great things about Jennifer... except y'all need to book with her asap!!! I love you Jennifer and your love for street tacos and plants <3

work with and made us feel so comfortable during the shoot. She communicated with me throughout the process, especially on the day of! We had a couple of bumps with our original location being closed for the day. She kept me in the loop with everything and was so open to finding another spot to make our pictures perfect. Her attention to detail is out of this world. Our pictures turned out PERFECT and we received so many compliments! I'm so grateful we were able to book her and have these pictures to look back at forever! Thank you, Jennifer!!!! ❤️

ain for pictures. I couldn’t thank her enough for what she did for us that night and how the pictures came out. I think the main the about her is that she has such a great vibe. Just so calm, cool, and relaxed. Keep being you woman!

at all the fine details, even our packages to pick from were named after parts of our story! We luckily got to meet with her before the wedding (we don't live near the venue site) and got an impromptu photoshoot because she liked how the flowers looked. When the big day finally came my wife and I knew we were in good hands. I had planned a surprise for my wife and when Jennifer saw it she was immediately excited to capture the moment. It felt so natural having there, she had this great vibe of being in the party while documenting the party, both of our families kept telling us how great she was taking their pictures without it feeling staged, she knew how to capture those candids while also having a sense of direction. At one point she had to rescue us from a wedding surprise gone wrong and she gave us an out and led us away and into the safety of the venue. She would always ask us what WE wanted and how could she help us accomplish that, we felt listened to and taken care of. Now, her pictures. Holy crud, her turnaround was quicker than expected and my wife and I were amazed. She captured every moment that you want captured and more. Not only did she get every moment but her edits were absolutely amazing. The photos don't look like they've been edited to death but she adds just enough to enhance the image and you feel like an angel when you look at them. She let us do whatever felt right during our post-ceremony pictures and you can feel the joy coming out of the computer, she let us be us with some direction of course. If you're looking for a photographer that feels like a long lost friend, hire Jennifer. And if you just want a photographer, hire her because there is no one better.

flexible, and accommodating. Our wedding party LOVED her--seriously, some were even saying they wanted her for their future wedding or were wanting her for their family portraits. Our wedding guests raved about her! She made our wedding day absolutely perfect. We were so lucky to have her as a part of our special day.

when we left, not only did we get beautiful pictures, but my fiancé said “oh we are so hiring her for our wedding!” Jennifer made picture taking so easy and fun! She has a wonderful, fun, loving personality. Our wedding photos were more than perfect. People are still commenting on how beautiful they are! I asked her if she would be able to take night photos of us at our wedding and she went above and beyond and worked hard to learn how to take them, brought her lighting all the way to Florida for our wedding, and they are freaking awesome! I cannot wait to get pregnant so we can take maternity photos! I will travel from Houston to Corpus any day. She’s totally worth it! She’s a 12 out of 10 photographer. I highly recommended her!

w I HAD to have her. Her photos were absolutely beautiful & her styles of photography were everything I wanted my photos to be. 1st session were my engagement photos and She. did. Not. Disappoint. Jennifer was exceptional! She is punctual, prompt with responses, dependable, honest, VERY professional but even more friendly. From the moment we got out of the car to the time we were leaving we were non stop talking & laughing and even had to pause the photoshoot a few times because I could not keep a straight face for some poses. She made myself & my fiancé at the time feel so comfortable in front of her and the camera. The entire session was so natural for us because Jennifer has this magic about her & it’s portrayed through her photos and clients. You can see the love & pureness in all her photos! My 2nd session was my Future husbands wedding present aka a boudoir photoshoot & let me tell you...I was about to quit my career job and become a lingerie model guys. I’m so serious. I was so damn impressed with myself 🤣 Those kind of photo shoots can be awkward and I’m very comfortable with my body but I was still nervous and had absolutely no clue on what to do, how to pose, what to do with my hands and my face. I was clueless & Jennifer did what she does best. She worked that magic I was telling y’all about earlier. She was not only hyping me up & making me feel like the most sexiest woman in the world but she also brought the photoshoot to life! She knew all the right angles and moves and lighting to accentuate my body type that blew me away after seeing my portfolio. After this, I considered Jennifer a friend. I loved her that much after this. Not only had she done 2 amazing photo sessions for me already but she also made a way into my heart ❤️Jennifer is so pure of love and joy it radiates to everyone around her. Lastly, my 3rd session with Jennifer was my Wedding day. By this time, I didn’t even feel the need to send her any photos of what I was wanting to capture on my big day because I had 100% complete trust that she would give me everything I wanted for my special day and she did that and even more. If you cannot put your trust into your photographer for your wedding you do not have the right photographer for you. You will trust Jennifer I can guarantee it! Jennifer will make sure you have the wedding photos that remain beautiful and timeless after years to come. VOTE FOR JENN!

to handle my husband’s many crazy groomsmen. She has a great heart and makes your feel like family before you even meet her. We only had her (no extra shooter) for a wedding of 280 people and she was able to capture it all! She even was able to get shots from every angle during the ceremony! She’s a hustler! I was beyond impressed and we’ve received so many compliments even before the pictures came in- everyone loved her! 100% recommend. Love her!!!!

having fun. Jennifer not only captured the most amazing photos of us and our guests, but she also made sure I was taken care of the entire day. SHE IS THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHER/ WEDDING DAY BEST FRIEND you can find. Not only his her work amazing, but her entire personality alone and the vibe she brings to your wedding is worth every penny spent. There is no such thing as "awkward" or "ugly" in her photos, I don't know how she does it, but she makes every photo look beautiful. We LOVE HER and know you will too! #WaitingOnACloud

use for our save the dates! The entire experience of taking engagement photos with her was so exciting and fun! She took the time to get to know us and really captured who we are as a couple! I cannot say enough good things about her! I am SO SO EXCITED to do the bridal session!

didn’t really even plan on doing engagement photos. But then one of my friends tagged me in one of Jennifer’s give-aways on Instagram, and let me tell y’all something... I NEVER win anything. Like ever😑. But somehow I got lucky enough to win🙌🏻. And I am SO thankful that we were given the opportunity to have Jennifer as our photographer because she is the B-E-S-T💅🏽. Jennifer is not like any photographer I’ve seen. Her techniques and styles AMAZE me. She had my husband and I kissing with our teeth😆, which sounds insane I know, but this picture turned out perfect! I can’t even pick my favorite picture because they are all soooo amazing! Trust me, I’m the type of person who absolutely hates taking photos, but I would 100% do pictures with Jennifer again! Now let me get real here for a minute. My husband and I are a happily married gay couple. As a gay couple you worry that some people may not agree with your point of view. So to have someone as kind, genuine, compassionate, loving... I could go on and on... was such a blessing for my husband and I. We love you Jennifer and thank you for the amazing memories that we get to keep forever❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

n and it shows in her photography. Making kids smile and sit still is no easy task and she managed to get beautiful photos of both of my boys. Despite the wind and my crazy cats and dogs running around she was able to capture such wonderful photos of my family and I (fur babies and all). She also was my photographer at my wedding. The weather was not ideal however, Jennifer was able to capture my guest inside and outside. She took the most amazing photos of my husband and I dancing that make me cry every time I look at them. I can say from my experience that I know she will make any weather situation when it comes to your special event. Above all I had several family and friends that really enjoyed meeting her and I am looking forward to the next time we get to work with her.

mera. It wasn’t an issue at all! She was absolutely encouraging, and a fantastic cheerleader. She gave lots of genuine compliments. In fact, “genuine” is probably the best way I can describe her. Jennifer has a communication style that helped me feel supported and connected from the beginning. I had my “entourage” with me, and she worked with them to get the best smiles from me that a camera could capture. My photos came out gorgeous and I can’t wait to show them to my future spouse. :)

pictures amazing but her wonderful personality single handedly kept me from having a breakdown due to my mother having her own bridezilla moment. She walked up on my wedding day like a best friend, my husband and I are a little awkward with new people and attention but she made everything silly and light to keep us comfortable. I love love love her! I will definitely be using her for future photo shoots as well!

lad to have picked her to do our special day. We love you Jen! Many many thanks for everything!

energy. It was infectious!! She knows what she wants and has an amazing eye for capturing beauty in a photo. I cannot say enough good things about this woman. Jennifer is now part of the May/Williamson family, that is for sure 💗💗. Also, insider tip, she is QUEEN of the #FannyPackGang. Book her and you'll see what I am talking about 😉💗.

able to work with her. Every pose didn’t feel awkward or didn’t feel forced. She made sure to get candid photographs of us being us. I just wanna take her with us everywhere lol. She’s so professional, funny, exuberant, and a natural. I definitely would recommend Jennifer to anybody looking for bridal shots, engagements, or wedding photos. I just want to relive those moments she captured over and over again.

on her website asks questions about you and your fiancé. This showed me that she genuinely cares about you before you even speak to her. Jennifer is super responsive and so so sweet and understanding. I live in NJ, but my fiancé lives in Corpus Christi, so the fact that Jennifer was so available over text was really important to me in the weeks leading up to our session. She helped me with outfits and i knew she saw my vision for what I wanted in our pictures. Also she met with us over labor day weekend.... which not many people would do. I really really appreciated that about her. She cares about her work and it shows. Before seeing our final product, I thought Dan and I were super awkward people who only had one picture pose- big cheesy smiles. While that still may be true, Jennifer captured and brought out a different side of us. I feel like our pictures accurately depict the love and relationship we have. Everyone I show our pictures to says it. She made us feel comfortable and good about ourselves. I am actually obsessed with our pictures and I can’t wait to work with Jennifer again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

o you; but when you’re as genuine as she ... is your passion truly shows through your craft. I can’t wait to work with her ❤️ definitely recommend checking her out!!!

rapher. I cannot tell you how blessed and honored we feel that she agreed to shoot our wedding! We talked A LOT before we even met in person, and I truly felt as if I had known her my entire life. Jennifer shot our engagement (and family) session first. She treated our son like her own, and made us all feel so happy and comfortable! Then, she traveled to San Antonio (we live in the Corpus area) for my bridal! Jennifer SERIOUSLY made me feel like a princess. Then....OUR WEDDING! Y’all, she just sent the photos to me (and it was just 4 days after the big day!) and they were perfect! She captured the most intimate, special, and fun moments that I will never want to forget! I cannot wait to show my future children and grandchildren these incredible photos. Everyone adored Jennifer, and she fit right in with my family & friends! I mean it when I say, you will NOT regret hiring her. She’s worth every penny (and then some). Jennifer is professional, encouraging, proactive, and just a joy to be around. I am so proud of these pictures, and I am proud to say I gained a new friend.

thly and was a special day for both me and my husband. She captured beautiful photos that I didn’t even know she took! I will always refer people to her and use her in the future! She was truely a blessing!

anybody for ANY occasion!

with my hectic pre-wedding schedule, and was totally on-board and excited to do my non-traditional pre-wedding shoot with my dog, since my fiance was out of town. Seeing how patient and fun she was with an uncooperative photo subject like a dog just solidified my confidence in having her for my wedding! On my wedding day, Jennifer added a personal touch that I am certain I would not find with any other photographer.. She was my moral support, calmed my pre-wedding jitters, made me feel beautiful, and seamlessly navigated the line between being a professional, and being a friend. She fit in perfectly with my family and made us all feel so comfortable! She had fantastic tips on posing (which my awkward self DEFINITELY needed), and I could not be happier with my pictures! They are absolutely gorgeous works-of-art! She got them back to me so quickly, and I spent hours just going through them and re-living our special day. She amazingly captured all the emotion and special moments, from getting ready to our departure. Her pictures are so intimate, and each one transports me back to that moment and everything I was feeling and thinking. She worked with me the whole way, even offering to drive out to meet the guys and get all their pre-wedding shots. She was so patient to cover all the formals that come with a "blended family" like mine. There is not a single moment from that day that Jennifer missed. She was so awesome, she even ran and grabbed my husband and I beers and water so we would be comfortable for our photoshoot! For any bride trying to decide on a wedding photographer, I will preach this woman all day! My family has had a lot of marriages (and a lot of wedding photographers), and we all agree that Jennifer's pictures are the best we have ever seen. She is so perfectly fun and professional, she is punctual, she knows how to take command when necessary, and she always knows exactly what a nervous bride needs to hear. I am so thankful to have found her, she was so much more than just a photographer; she became an essential part of our whole experience.

away by her work, attention to detail and over all personality.
