We have known Jobey for a long time now - he photographed our initial proposal a few years ago, and we instantly connected with him. We are usually so awkward in front of the camera, but with Jobey, we felt so relaxed and like we could just be ourselves around him. He ended up doing such an astounding and beautiful job, we had to hire him for the wedding too!
Jobey knows that photos and posing aren’t for everyone, so he adds his own sense of humor and personality to make everyone feel included and happy to be there! We don’t know how he does it, but he always makes us feel and look like celebrities without even trying! All of his directions felt natural, and his support and compliments led to capturing the most beaming smiles either of us have ever made on camera!
One of our favorite things about Jobey and his photography style and his ability to capture us in moments where we are at our best and just having fun. It never feels forced, so he is able to capture all the emotions we are feeling at the time. Whether it is joy, tears, or just plain relief, it all translates so well into his photography. The editing is also exactly what we were looking for, with almost a dreamy glow to each photo. The composition and color balance are always perfect and draws your eyes to exactly the right place.
If you are looking for a photographer who is not only talented and committed, but also fun and welcoming, Jobey is your guy! We love our photos so much and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!
Jobey was by far our favorite wedding vendor. He was such a bubbly energy to have doing our portraits for the engagement shoot and on our big day. Even with his exuberant personality, he made himself unseen while he captured amazing candids. Based on the photos, it was as if he were everywhere all at once. It was amazing to relive moments we experienced and also see moments that we missed (but Jobey did not!). His intelligence and artistic eye is a rarity and is exemplified in the final product. For what it’s worth he did not mention reviews at all - we just felt compelled by gratitude for his dedication and desire for other couples to experience having him as a photographer so I assume the other reviewers feel the same!

Sam
Photographer/Videographer
Hi there! My name is Sam, but people also call me Jobey. I have a passion for capturing beauty, which means my abilities as a photographer are not just limited to nice portraits, but go beyond to capture the grand architecture surrounding you, the loud or intimate energy in the room, and other details that make your photos that much more memorable and impactful.
If you couldn't tell, I am a huge details person and find so much satisfaction when I am able to take my clients back to relive their precious memories by capturing the essence of those special moments in creative ways. Not only am I capable of capturing perfect moments, but my ability to edit and deliver the "look" and "tone" of the images is also flexible. So whatever "look" you're going for, whether it's bright & airy, or dark and moody, I'm on YOUR side and all for delivering exactly the style of photos you're looking for.
