Jennifer is superb at her craft and a true professional. I was a photographer in the 90s, and still shoot professionally a few times year, and as a hobby fairly constantly. In my career, I shot a lot of product & catalog work, some portraits,... and a lot of events. I tried shooting weddings and did about 5 or 6 before realizing it was not my thing. So, for finding a photographer, and because none of my colleagues do weddings, I scoured the web for weeks to find a good photographer within our budget.
We hired just Jennifer for a half-day to capture our elopement to Palm Springs. It was just me, wife-to-be, the officiant and his wife. Jennifer showed up to do getting-ready photos, then we headed out to the middle of the desert to say our vows. Jennifer was all over every moment and truly didn't miss a single one. She directed us when we didn't know what to do, and stayed on the periphery when we knew what we wanted to do next. She was an integral part of making our day truly special. Funny side note: My wife got stung by a bee just as we were saying goodbye to Jennifer and Jennifer popped open her car, busted out a first aid kid, and treated my wife right as we said goodbye!
Then, the images. Like I mentioned above, Jennifer's day-rate was right within our budget, but then when we went to see her images a few weeks after the wedding, we ended up spending about twice what we'd planned on spending on prints & albums because her images are AMAZING. So, friendly warning, her images are just too good -- you won't be able to resist buying them :) The products she delivered were top-notch. I've been to a lot of photographer conventions and worked with many labs and finishing companies, so I know good product when I see it. We bought a 40-pg (20 pg dbl-sided) 12"x12" album, 5 pocket albums for family (one of which has been handled endlessly by my two nieces, and shows almost no signs of wear), a handful of 5x7 & 8x10 prints, an 11x14, and a 16x24 black & white which is on the wall in our living room -- and I can honestly say I don't think anyone doesn't compliment us on it and ask about the photographer when they see it. Most family & friends gasped the first time they saw it.
Also, I'm biased, but I think my wife is gorgeous, but somehow she ended up with a pretty homely-looking guy, but Jennifer made me look pretty sharp and my wife looks like, I don't know, some stunning European movie star. The officiant told us he and his wife cried when we sent them the online album.
Also, online gallery & ordering was awesome. Jennifer worked very well with us over email (she's very responsive) to make sure our product order was perfect, and when the merchandise arrived, it was exactly what we'd ordered.
THANK YOU JENNIFER!!!
