Jennifer captured all the beautiful details and all of the love and emotion of the day. As you can see from her website (jenniferwhalen.com), she takes phenomenal artistic photos, but she is also an expert and putting people at ease and capturi...ng the moments that truly matter. Through Jennifer's photos, I saw the entire story of my day through the eyes of not just me, but also my groom, our wedding party, our family and guests. Jennifer captured details that I never even had a chance to see on my wedding day!
My family also wanted several more traditional family photos (including a very large, challenging-to-organize one) and Jennifer was cheerful and gracious with everyone - and the resulting photos are amazing! On the day of the wedding my family commented on how pleasant and efficient she was, and after they saw the photos, their comment was "She is not just a photographer, she is an artist!"
We chose to have 8 hours of coverage by only Jennifer (she has a fantastic assistant as well). We had also done our engagement shoot with Jennifer, and that certainly helped for both of us to be comfortable and know what to expect. Jennifer provided is with 100% of the digital images from our wedding day (over 700 of them). I started today to go through the 703 images she took - after the first pass of picking out the "best of the best" I am down to just 691! She honestly is THAT amazing.
Jennifer was professional and very responsive to all of my requests. She is down-to-earth and makes everyone around her feel comfortable - this is priceless on what can be a very stressful day. It makes our photos just exude with relaxed happiness!
