Jessica Haley Photography

hat we found Jessica and had her document this most special day for us. She is a true artist, and we will cherish the photographs that she took forever! She and her assistant were so organized and so pleasant to have with us on the day. We hardly knew that they were there, yet they captured every moment with beautiful photographs. It was beyond our expectations. Thank you Jessica!

g and posing. We loved every single picture she took. Leading up to the wedding, she was very organized by having us fill out a form of what pictures we were looking for the day of. She did such an amazing job the day of the wedding capturing all of the important moments and all of the combinations on our shot list. I was impressed how she got through all of the family portraits so fast and was so on top of the list. Jessica and her assistant Kristina were amazing to have around the day of the wedding. They were clear and decisive on where we should be, what poses we should do, and timing. They made everyone feel comfortable and were very unobtrusive. We have gotten the highlights and pictures back and are beyond thrilled. It’s impossible to pick our favorite pictures! We have gotten so many compliments on our pictures! Photography was something I really prioritized and she was above and beyond what I could have hoped for.

ess yesterday . You really couldn't ask for a more professional or lovely experience.

rked with by far. She was great with our guests and captured every moment at the wedding. She made taking photos all day so easy! We also did an engagement session with Jessica and that really helped us get used to being in front of the camera. We cannot recommend Jessica enough!

graphy. I myself, still can't stop staring at all the gorgeous pictures! (The only reason I am posting now, is my previous post got lost!) Each and every one of Jessica's pictures has such a professional touch and look like they came straight out of a magazine! I will never forget when I received my wedding highlight preview- I was on my honeymoon and sat there and totally cried my eyes out with tears of joy.  Before our wedding, I always browsed at her website, in awe of her gorgeous wedding pictures... and when mine arrived, I was so in love with how all my pictures came out as perfectly as those I was admiring for so long! Jessica is the easiest to work with. She has the patience of a saint, and takes time to go through every detail. She is SUPER organized, which was one of the things we loved about her. From engagement photos, to working on our album, Jessica was SO kind, and took time to pay attention to every detail to make everything just right! Jessica was always available to answer all our (many!) questions along the way (we had a lot!), and she always took the time to give me her true opinions. I always felt so bad asking so many questions, as I’m someone who is also detail oriented, but Jessica never seemed bothered and I am so thankful for her amazing patience! I love how genuine and thoughtful she is as a person and as a photographer. She is funny, sweet, and so calm and so great to work with. It's definitely helpful when there are wedding day jitters to have such a calm presence around. Her sister (her assistant) is just as sweet and calm as well. Jessica's organizational skills are very unique, and so meaningful to a bride planning their own wedding! What stood out to me when searching for a photographer, was her immaculate presentation in her work; you can tell she puts so much thought into it, which many other photographers don't (and we met with quite a few!) Jessica creates a personal website for you with all the different parts from the wedding night. I love how our engagement photos are together with our wedding pictures all in one place. It's so easy and quick when I want to go back and reminisce on them all!! The week before the wedding Jessica sent the most detailed timeline which our family loved and found so helpful! Even though we ended up running late, Jessica made almost all of our requested shots happen! She and her sister Hayley work so seamlessly, and blend right in with the crowd. They work hard, and diligently and truly captured all the joy and fun of our wedding through some of the BEST candid shots! Everything from the portraits to the dancing candids came out SO beautifully. Her detail shots are truly breathtaking and are definitely my favorite! Lastly, our album came out soooo beautifully. I never dreamed of having such a picture perfect album! Jessica knew I had particular photos in mind for the album, and was so incredibly patient and flexible in working together to make the perfect album! It was really such an awesome experience to be able to work on the album as a team! We are SO in love with it! I didn't want to put it away after we first got it because I couldn't stop staring at it! I highly recommend Jessica Haley! She's the best!!

endly and laid back and makes for a great addition as you're walking around stressed out on your big day. Best of all, Jessica was super accessible throughout the whole process. She embodies the best of both worlds, creative/talented but also business oriented/responsive which is key during the planning phase. Jessica responded to all emails and questions promptly and in an upbeat manner - love that! She even sent some thoughtful surprises throughout the planning process - I won't ruin the surprise for future brides! We couldn't be more pleased with our pictures and definitely recommend using Jessica for your big day!

and her team! They are amazing!

d responded so quickly via email. Jessica is also so organized and has great tips for the wedding day and the wedding day timeline. I felt confident that with her there she would just make sure we got all the right pictures but still be able to enjoy the night. And it was true! The week before she sent a detailed hour by hour timeline which was so helpful to send to my bridesmaids etc. Then the day of, Jessica was just phenomenal. She is great at gathering the group shots that you want but doesn't over do it and knows you want to enjoy your day. She snuck us outside for sunset pictures for 5 minutes during one of the dance sets and they are some of my favorite pictures. Many of my guests commented how she was so fun and easy to be around. Besides the portraits she and her sister (Haley) did an amazing job of capturing so many candids and all of the fun moments of us and our guests without us even knowing she was there! I recommend Jessica without any hesitations--she's the absolute best!!!

Thanks for being awesome and professional and courteous and all of the above!!!!

e, so punctual, and so professional. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Jessica!!

ys with a friendly and positive attitude, which was especially appreciated!! My (now) husband and I had very busy schedules, but she made it work in whatever way possible. Jessica was very professional but also made us feel like she was a close friend, getting to know us well over the months we worked with her leading up to the wedding. This helped her get a sense of what our hopes and dreams were for our big day so she could capture it in the best way possible! On the wedding day, Jessica did an amazing job capturing the special moments throughout the day, as well as capturing the beauty of our locations, including the church and wedding hall, which were important to us. We were in awe of how magnificent the engagement, rehearsal dinner and wedding pictures all came out. The pictures she captured were not only snapshots of the day, but truly told a narrative of the story of our wedding day and the many memories we will always cherish. I highly highly recommend Jessica Haley Photography if you want a very creative and talented photographer who will give you that personal touch and capture your wedding day in the way you've always dreamed!

fore the wedding so we were completely comfortable in front of the camera- which really does make a big difference. They were very professional in how they handled the day of. They never got in the way, yet still got every single shot we would have ever wanted from multiple angles. Jessica talks to you multiple times before the event to ensure she understands exactly what you want. The way she captures the moments is unlike any other photographer I have seen. It doesn't matter if it's in the sunlight, clouds, or under artificial lights- they know how to capture it perfectly. Jessica and Haley take time to capture all the details and make sure to get everyone at the wedding. They are so enjoyable to work with and truly make it a pleasant experience. Beyond the event, Jessica quickly turns the photos around and the album. She took the time to design an album I will cherish forever and ever. No one else has an album that is as remarkable and high quality as the one Jessica and Haley design and produce- she even hand delivered it! I was blown away with Jessica Haley Photography and cannot wait to have another excuse to use them!

er and Haley. We also had her shoot our engagement photos and they were just spectacular. Her attention to detail and use of light was absolutely brilliant. She helped guide us through the photo shoots for the posed pictures and helped to organize our massive families for family portraits which came out amazing! Where Jessica really shines is the candid shots of the day. There were brilliant aerial shots from the balcony of our ceremony and amazing shots of us dancing that I didn't even know she got. That's what makes her so good as well, her and Haley were very good at not getting in the way and making themselves almost invisible. She recommended our videographer whom we were more than grateful to have found. On top of all this she had our entire photo gallery completed within two weeks of the wedding date. She gave us a sneak peak album a few days after the wedding and a beautiful and eloquent blog post within a week. I have heard nightmares of friends waiting months for their pictures so I was relieved and ecstatic to see our pictures so quickly. I would definitely recommend Jessica Haley and can't wait to hire her again for our next event.

wn in the weeks and days leading up to the wedding. Jessica went out of her way to meet me in South Bend, IN to take our engagement photos because I wanted to have them done at my alma mater. Her second shooters, Haley (engagement shoot) and Meredith (wedding) were both as great as she was. The pictures are beautiful. We did not do a first look, but Jess was so organized that I hardly missed any of my cocktail hour. The formal family pictures, which normally take a long time, were quick and painless. I also am obsessed with my album. I go the queensbury album, and it is simply stunning. Jess did the design for me, and I just changed around certain photographs, which made it easier and much more cohesive than i could have done myself. Most importantly, Jessica made us comfortable and made us feel so important. She recognizes that this is the most important day of our lives up to this point, and makes sure it is everything we dreamed on the day of, and that she captures the spirit of it. I couldnt have asked for a better experience.

we did. Jessica made us feel so comfortable and gave great direction for posing. My husband agreed that the engagement session really gave him an idea of what to expect for the wedding day! Jessica's style is classic and timeless. She's a genius with natural light and detail shots. For our wedding, she mixed the perfect amount of posed and candid shots. She and her second shooter were so present, yet throughout the day I don't recall seeing the camera all that much. She handled all the personalities of our families and wedding party perfectly, from posing large extended family shots, to getting young kids to smile, to organizing the groomsmen for photos (talk about herding cats). Our families and friends have RAVED about our photos. Jessica's customer service was as high quality as we could have asked for, and the web platform that she uses to share photos is phenomenal and easy for anyone to use. She was responsive, fast, organized, and a joy to be around. The memories of our wedding day are so special, and now we have priceless photos that capture happiness of that day forever.

an exceptional photographer when your friends and family who are married tell you "I want to get married again, just so Jessica can photograph my wedding!" Jessica and her team have an exceptional sense of timing to document the real life moments that will be framed forever and passed down to generations. They have an ability to capture natural and joyous moments, but most importantly the intimacy in an unobtrusive manner that allows everyone involved in your big day to constantly feel comfortable. Jessica has an eye for capturing details and candids that you never knew were possible. Her team is truly there at every moment! She is very professional, kind, caring and listens. It is a stressful day and her team handled everything brilliantly, so it puts you as a bride at ease! Every bride is different and she shoots to your preference. You truly form a strong relationship with her team, due to their expertise and listening to your direction. I had my engagement session in NYC, but my wedding was in Baltimore and her team is extremely flexible and travels anywhere. Jessica produced blog postings of our wedding within a week. It was fantastic to be on our honeymoon and be able to relive the moments through her beautiful photography. She will work with you on delivering online galleries so that you and anyone can download photos and purchase them! This made it so easy for us to get pictures quickly and mark our favorites so she can create our wedding album. Jessica and her team's patience, professionalism, skill, and artistic eye were all deeply appreciated. I have beautiful pictures that really captured all important moments and every feeling and emotion we felt throughout the day! Jessica and her team felt like friends sharing our wedding day with us. I cannot wait to hire them for future life events!

treasure my wedding pictures because they captured the day perfectly!
