JIM CANOLE PHOTOGRAPHY

r wedding through pictures. We weren’t hiring a videographer in addition, so having our special moments caught as candid photos was really important to us. From our initial meeting with Jim, through our wedding day and production of our final photos, Jim was very professional and easy to communicate with. We were planning our Boston wedding from NY, so it was great that we were able to meet on Skype to go over the structure of the day and any important shots we wanted incorporated. Then we left it up to his expertise to capture our wedding day through photos. We really couldn’t be happier with the end result! We have hundreds of gorgeous photos to frame and to put in an album. Jim gave us the option of making an album for us, but we chose to make our own just based on personal preference. However, the albums we saw in his office were beautiful. We could not be happier with our decision to choose Jim Canole as our wedding photographer, and would recommend him to anyone.

Very happy with our photos, very candid!

ideographer, so it was important to us that we had a photographer that would capture our entire wedding, and he did just that! Jim was able to capture all the emotion and action of the day. There was extraordinary coverage of all events of the day. Jim was very efficient with his time management throughout the day which made things easy and stress free. Thank you Jim !!

The pictures came out beautiful and we are so happy to have all of these amazing memories.. Thanks Jim!!!!

at!!! Jim was easy to work with and flexible. He had the larger picture in his mind from our prior convos and was great at suggesting things as they popped up or receptive to our last minute ideas. He never felt instrusive and you can tell he loves what he does!! We have so many beautiful pictures to pick from.

he pictures came out beautiful! We would highly recommend him for any event!

pure emotion or heart of his subject. They were my favorite ones. The day flies by and looking back at the pictures I feel like he was able to freeze a small moment in time that I missed in the hustle and bustle. If you love candids more then formals, you will not be sorry if you book him.

mall and big moments during the day that are so important. We received our photos very quickly and going through them was so much fun. His art is high quality and allows you to be brought back to your special day and remember all of the fun (and also discover moments you may have forgotten or did not see). I highly recommend Jim for your special day, he is professional during the pre-wedding planning and the day of, being prompt, friendly, and focusing entirely on your day.

zip file). Thank you for all the wonderful memories!!

ou get all the pictures you're hoping for. The pictures came out absolutely amazing. I'd highly recommend Jim for any photography needs.

l he's been doing this for a long time. Love my pictures!

for weddings. Honestly, he was so good at his job, I forget he was even there at times. If you're looking for a fantastic photographer, look no further!

ed really well with the kids in the wedding party and got them all have fun taking pictures. He delivered our gallery of pictures so quickly which we really appreciated. We really loved the whole experience. I would definitely recommend Jim.

ue to our wedding made the pictures all the more special. Highly recommended! If there is anything you want to get right for a wedding, it's the photos you will look at years from now and I am very glad we chose Jim to document our special day.

wedding pictures were used by the venue as promotional given their exceptional quality. Our expectations for this current wedding were exceeded by Jim! From pre-wedding planning, to coordination before and during the wedding, to complete capture of all aspects from "spontaneous" to planned, to ensuring that all attendees and every corner of the family and friends present are remembered, to being "present" yet transparent at the event, to "owning" every aspect and detail, to prompt review of photo's, to an easily navigatable website that allows rapid and easy viewing and downloading of high definition pictures, to a beautiful display to a total ease and delight in working with him, Jim is a "best of the best". For cost, value, product, quality and for your most important life cycle events we would not consider any other photographer. Jim Canole is beyond 5 stars!

the wedding we met in person and Jim took the time to go over in detail the timeline for the day and if there were any specific shots we'd like him to capture. He made a lot of helpful suggestions that we had never thought of, such a lightening and the timing of the moving pieces of the day. When our big day came Jim was there on time ready to go! Our wedding was in December in Vermont and I wanted formal shots taken outside since we had such a gorgeous backdrop, and Jim moved quickly (so we werent out in the cold for very long) and they are STUNNING!!!! I couldnt imagine them to be any better. The photos of all our friends and family during the reception enjoying themselves has been wonderful to see. So many of the small special moments that happen organically throughout the night Jim was able to capture. Not only is Jim's work beautiful, but he is prompt, sending us our digitals only a few weeks later! We still haven't decided what our favorites are that we want to print, there are so many to choose from! My parents are still enjoying looking through them all even a month after the wedding has past. We are thrilled to have such beautiful memories. THANK YOU JIM! Lea & Steve

ed to not get a videographer for our wedding so we wanted a photographer that could document our wedding day and tell our story through stills, and that is exactly what Jim did. When we received our photos (which was less than 10 days!) my husband and I were able to relive our wedding day and now we will be able to every time we look at these photos. Jim was amazing at photographing those candid moments and a lot of the time we found ourselves asking, "When did he even take that photo?" It was like he was everywhere all at once but doing so ever so discreetly. My husband and I highly recommend Jim Canole Photography and we are so happy and grateful that we chose him for our wedding!

red with the most authentic facial reactions, in a photojournalistic, but also artistic way. The beauty of so many photos has taken our breath away. Every person that has seen all the photos has been in awe of how well the day's emotions have been captured. With every photo, we re-live that exact moment of the day. It was a very long day from getting ready in the hotel, to the church for the ceremony, to formal photos in a park, to the cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. Jim was constantly working, but was never intrusive. He stayed beyond what was required so all the right shots could be taken and nothing would be missed. He was a pleasure to work with – easy, a great listener, knowledgeable, and a true professional. I highly recommend him to anyone wishing to memorialize the best day of their lives. Thank you, Jim! We could not be more pleased.

e/email, and always on time! We loved that he was able to get creative with us on the day with our bride/groom shots, and really take advantage of our slightly unusual setting (Mount Auburn Cemetery). We were definitely very happy with the end results! His rates are definitely very reasonable, too. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

meant, but now that the day is over I completely understand. As the bride/groom of the wedding the day FLIES by in ways you can't even describe. You want someone who will not only capture the moments of the day but also the FEELING of the day. Jim Canole did just that! Any photos could show you the day, and many of the photos friends took on their phones show the events. Jim however captured the emotions of the day as they were happening. As a result of his PHENOMENAL skill capturing those emotions, we can truly relive the best day of our lives. Jim out did himself. You can see in each of our photos that Jim cared as much about our wedding day as we did. If we ever got the chance to do the day all over again, Jim would be the first person I called to hire.

pre-wedding calls and took the time to understand what we were looking for. Day of, he easily managed our 16 person wedding party, was patient when I was uncomfortable having my photo taken and hit every special photo request we had (plus some others we didn't know we'd want). Lastly and most importantly, when we got our photos back they were amazing! I don't know how Jim managed to remain in the background during our ceremony and reception yet not miss a single moment. We couldn't be happier, and we'd book with Jim again.

don't even notice he's there taking the pictures, yet somehow manages to capture the best shots! Some people may hire multiple photographers to ensure that no shot is missed, but I guarantee you that Jim will not miss a single shot. You will not be disappointed in hiring Jim, he is a phenomenal photographer and a pleasure to work with!

ith. We are a bit difficult to photograph, but Jim was able to get some flattering poses. On wedding day he made sure to capture the specific moments that we discussed as well as many candid moments during the reception while being unobtrusive, and even climbed a wall to get a full overhead shot of all the wedding guests and party. His style is photojournalistic, so there isn't a lot of focus on still shots of wedding items, but he will cover the basics. We have been enjoying looking at the pictures showing us the good time and happy memories we and our guests experienced. Thank you Jim!

meeting through delivery of the photos via USB + the cloud. Highly recommended.

dding. It was truly the happiest day of my life and Jim was instrumental in forever crystallizing it through his amazing photographs that walked the line between testimony and artistry.

dmire! He's great with candids, and really has a photojournalistic eye; we really felt like we relived the event through the photos.

us attractive price compared with other 5 star photographers. Jim also shot our engagement pictures in downtown Boston two weeks before our wedding. He is very comfortable to work with. He is able to make us relaxed and be ourselves in front of his camera. That's why his photos are always natural and candid even with some posed ones. Since Jim had never shot photos at the venue we held our wedding, he checked out the place and planned ahead where to capture the best moments. He was very detail oriented and well prepared that he took a lot of time communicating with us who and what we want to be in the photos to remind us our most special day. On our wedding day, Jim worked very hard and was great capturing the candid and special moments. Our parents really enjoyed working with Jim as well, since he's so unobtrusive as a photographer, but nice and caring as a friend. We are very happy with our photos and very glad we had him to be the one who remind us all the precious memories of the day!

res and captured amazing moments for both myself and my fiancee. We could not have asked for anything more and would recommend his services to anyone and everyone. Thanks Jim. Dave and Alexandra.

e talent at capturing emotion in a candid moment really stuck out to us over other work we reviewed. Since my husband and I both believed that making a decision to hire a photographer was one of the most important decisions of the wedding planning process, our expectations of Jim were high. He knocked it out of the park in every way! Jim was responsive and flexible throughout the process of planning our wedding, from helping us put together the best package to spending plenty of time on the phone going over wedding day details. On our wedding day itself, we anticipated that timing would be tight--yet Jim managed to adhere comfortably to schedule. Because our wedding took place at an old mansion it was logistically complicated--but Jim didn't miss a single beat. We have SO many good pictures from our wedding that we still can't seem to narrow down our favorites. We are so thankful that we hired Jim and absolutely recommend him to other couples!

above and beyond and you can tell takes pride in his work. I'm so glad I didn't go with anybody else!!

with us. Jim was easily accessible previous to the wedding. He was straight forward and needed little direction to catch our vision for the morning. During the ceremony he didn't imped the process with his presence. The wedding pics and video arrived in a timely manner. The wedding attendants report watching the video over and over again and didn't want it to stop.

in meetings leading up to the wedding to giving us exactly what we needed day of (sometimes space, sometimes direction--whatever was needed in the moment!) and even giving my cousin's son a tutorial on his on photography, helping him frame the shot, giving him a critique, telling him what he did great and how he could get better, and then proffering his business card to offer future guidance after the event (out of my eyesight, I heard about it later from family). He knows how to make everyone comfortable. The shots we have look like they could be in a magazine--not just the traditional photos, but the moments that we really want to remember. You're doing yourself a disservice if you don't hire Jim. Seriously.

hotos and wedding album. I would highly recommend his services for any bride to be!

as spectacular as the first. He is skilled at getting all the great shots while remaining unobtrusive .

my daughter's wedding for September 2015 and interviewed three. All local, similar in work style and price. But I chose Jim because of his work and essence. Best choice for sure. Jim took some amazing pictures that moved us to tears. He captured the story and the mood of the day exactly as it was felt and he did all that without you feeling him around you or in your face. He captured tears, laughter, the celebration and the love of that day. Jim has such a quiet and gentle but yet a very professional way of doing his work. I have to say paying for a service and getting great pictures may not be as hard to find but getting a person who's very pleasant and easy to work with, without any effort? Jim is the one!!! True professional, amazing work plus a stellar individual. He's the entire package for a photographer. We have another daughter and we will use him again. Also, what I thought was out of the ordinary is that several guests at our wedding made kind comments of how great and how pleasant our photographer was. That says it all.

d he truly has a great eye for finding and catching the most meaningful and unique parts of the day. The photos turned out absolutely amazing - everything we had hoped they would be and more. We’ve received so many compliments on them, and we’re so grateful to have memories of our special day in such great photographs. We had also decided to do engagement photos with Jim (also turned out great!) which we were really happy we did because it gave us a chance to get used to being photographed and to get to know Jim. Throughout the entire process, he focused on what we wanted and provided helpful suggestions and ideas. On the day of the wedding, he made sure he got all of the shots we wanted and was so creative in finding unique and fun shots. We can’t recommend him highly enough!

s his work. He set up a second meeting before our wedding to make sure he had a list of all the photos we wanted that day. On our wedding, he arrived promptly and was professional and fun to work with. His love of his work showed through as he would show us some of the photos he took right after taking them. He has amazing energy and covered a lot of ground that day. He had a list of our requested photos to make sure he got everything we wanted and was flexible when we decided not to do certain shots that day. We couldn't be happier with our pictures! Jim has a gift for catching people's expressions and emotions so the photos reflect all the feelings of our wedding day. He made a beautiful slide show, posted photos on his Facebook page and wrote some lovely blogs about our day on his website. We now have the slideshow and DVDs of 1,000 pictures to use as we like. I can't recommend Jim highly enough. You won't be disappointed if you hire him for your wedding!

Jim photographed my Boston wedding on 8/7/15 and I cannot say enough great things! So many couples have their pictures taken in the public garden and I truly feel mine are like no other - they're gorgeous, unique, and captivating. Candid shots are his specialty and they do not disappoint! I have so many great photos of little moments that would have gone forgotten if it weren't for Jim. Jim was so easy to work with, we felt comfortable and natural, and it shows in the photos - no fake smiles! I believe that the photographer is the most important vendor, they capture lasting memories, and Jim Canole does this with the highest level of expertise and professionalism. I highly recommend Jim, he is simply the best!

timeline of how the day would go. He did a great job capturing moments in a very special way. Thanks to Jim, we have beautiful memories that we will cherish forever.

ages to somehow be everywhere at once! He captured so many moments during our wedding, you would think there was more than one of him. His creativity took our photos to the next level, and our guests couldn’t stop complimenting how wonderful he was throughout the night. We also received our photos back quickly which was very exciting! Jim’s eye for candid shots really made our photos one of a kind and so special to us, we couldn’t be happier!

m the budget? After all there will be all those iPhones there and with upwards of 2000 images it should work. Not! Jim was worth every penny! He knows where to be without being in the way. He photographed from prep time to last dance and I never really noticed him. But when I saw the shots, they were perfect. The little kids, the grand parents, the expressions, the dancers, the tears, the joys, the laughs…all of it. Yet, most valuable are the shots that capture the love and joy of my daughter and the love-of-her-life, Jon. When the wedding is over and life moves on, what do you have? The picture that will go on the wall, table, desk, etc. to always remind you of that moment. I'm forever grateful to Jim for capturing those images the will keep that moment alive forever. Thanks Jim. Job well done
