Working with John was fun & easy. We used John for both our engagement session and wedding day. He is professional, but laid back and made us comfortable right away, we especially appreciated this as we aren't often behind a camera. He is very easy to communicate with and you can rest assured you'll always get your questions answered. I wasn't looking for a super bright editing you tend to see a lot of in TX and I was grateful he listened while still letting his talent shine. We truly loved our experience working with him & have no doubt if we need anything in the future that we'll reach out again
John did our wedding photos last fall and he was wonderful. Our intro call felt like chatting with a friend and he is just the kindest person! John knows exactly how to pose you and get those true bridal photos, and he’s not above getting into some mud to get the shot. We truly loved having him as our photographer and thought his communication skills were excellent. I could not recommend him enough, especially for his signature sunset photos.
John was an excellent photographer! He beautifully captured our wedding earlier this year. He helped us pose naturally for all of those staged wedding group photos and also took many fun candids. He also took our engagement photos, and they were beautiful! Highly recommend!
John was awesome and my wife and I loved working with him. Very professional and helped out with any questions we had.
ABSOLUTELY LOVED JOHN!!!! Very professional and helpful for any questions you might have leading up to your big day! My husband absolutely loved his work and when we get pregnant we look forward to hiring him for a maternity shoot!❤️
John does amazing work and he was very professional! We got lucky that we found him. His work is very good and he makes the whole process easy and fun.
John was an amazing photographer and had a great personality. He really cared about making sure he captured everything we wanted for our wedding day. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone.
We absolutely loved our wedding photos! John was really amazing to work with even though I had a million questions he always had answers! I am always camera shy but he was so easy to work with and had my husband and I super comfortable and made us laugh on our wedding day! We both highly recommend John to capture your most memorable day you will not regret it! Even the prints that you are able to order from him are great quality and turn out beautifully so highly recommend to it as well! Thanks again John for capturing our big day!
John was the absolute best to work with! He really knows what he’s doing. He made us feel so comfortable from the initial interview to engagement photos to our wedding day. And above all his communication is what kept me sane during those stressful wedding planning months.
Great guy with great service!
John G is an amazing wedding photographer! We loved his work on our December 2023 hill country wedding. Very professional, efficient, great eye, and good packages offered at reasonable prices. He did both our engagement and wedding.
We are elated that we found John! He took our engagement and wedding photos, and did such an amazing job! He was responsive, punctual, friendly, worked with our ideas and hectic schedules and helped us feel comfortable during the whole process. The pictures he took captured our wedding day beautifully and we will cherish them forever. Thank you John for being a part of the happiest day of our lives. We love our pictures!
John did our engagement photos and I could not be happier. He was flexible with a last minute location change (totally my fault) and also was fun enough to let us bring the dog along. It was a warm and humid Houston afternoon (in February no less) and he was an absolute gift! We love our photos and get so many compliments!
We’re so glad we hired John G photography LLC as our photographer. John was punctual, organized, friendly, and overall made us feel very comfortable. My husband and I are not very photogenic, but John made sure he could capture us at our most natural state. We wanted someone who specialized in sunset photography since our wedding was later in the day. If you’re looking for someone who can capture those sunset pictures look no further. One thing I especially loved about John’s photography is not only does he capture those candid photos, but he’s also great at coaching you to get the best poses possible. John is very talented and will most definitely make your dream pictures come true.
Our greatest hope for our wedding was for everything to be personal and authentic to us as a couple and John's presence that day/professionalism was a big part of that being possible. John was extremely flexible for two very go with the flow, figure it out when we get there people. Planning an OOT wedding at a private residence, John was great with communication and making sure we were all on the same page for the day of. John was a genuine, kind presence to have at our wedding and we would've loved that energy in general, but he ALSO caught all of these sweet moments from our dearest memory.
John is such an amazing man and photographer! My Husband can be a little camera shy - but John made all that shyness go away! Made my wedding absolutely memorable - I am so happy with all of my photos!
He is a must have wedding photographer!!
John G Photography made the photo sessions such an enjoyable experience! During the actual ceremony I never even noticed he was there, but the photos say otherwise! Absolutely perfect! He made everything feel so natural and captured it in such a way that I feel the emotions all over again every time I view the photos.
Omg! What can I really say about this other than PERFECT! We really saw our happiest day in slow motion with our photos! Also, John was just our best friend throughout this process, he just made everything so effortless and flawless and perfect! PERFECT!
10000/10 RECOMMEND! We hired John G Photography to do our engagement and wedding pictures. I was very specific in what I wanted (Sorry John) but he took everything I asked and MADE IT HAPPEN! Perfection would have to be an understatement for how everything went. He is so much fun to work with and captures every moment so beautifully. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.
I am so happy we found John! We hired him to be our vow renewal photographer for our 10th anniversary because we loved his journalistic style and visual aesthetic. We also added an anniversary photo session, which was the best photo shoot experience we've had to date.
John did a lot of behind-the-scenes work to prepare for the multi-location shoot. He keep us in the loop continuously, he stayed on top of every detail, and made himself easily available for questions and communications. He never made us feel like "just another client," which is so refreshing.
When it came time to shoot, he was very adaptable, friendly, encouraging, and professional. He had so many great ideas and we loved his enthusiasm.
Our photos were returned recently and we were so impressed! On top of all I mentioned, he's also very talented! We feel like he truly did capture the essence of our 'vision' for this shoot. We can't wait to work with him again at our vow renewal!
We hired JP for our engagement photos and we could have not chosen a better photographer! Ahead of the shoot, he asked if there was any special shots I wanted, which I had not thought of before then.
Additionally, my now-husband is a super nervous photo-taker, but he made us feel SO comfortable, making us laugh and feel at-ease. This made for such naturally-beautiful photos I never thought I would ever have of my husband and I. I'm so thankful for his patience, guidance and professionalism the entire shoot and cannot recommend him enough!
John is a great photographer. I had the pleasure of working with him on a wedding I was coordinating. The party he worked with quite large, but John was extremely patient and aware of the time to shoot. He made a point to take the pivotal shots the Bride requested and didn’t simply ignore her request. His creativity is brilliant and the final product of his work are definitely memories caught to be cherished forever.
John did an amazing job with our engagement and wedding photos. He was very responsive through emails and text. When we were scheduling an engagement photo shoot, he helped me select a beautiful location and really made me feel comfortable. Not only was he on time to both occassions, he was early. For my wedding we went slightly over the time but he was so accommodating an professional.
We received the pictures in a timely manner and the effects he tried looked gorgeous in the pictures. He was able to capture candid and beautiful moments that my husband and I can share for a lifetime. If I ever decide to renew vows, I would definitely use him again. I only wish I could give him more than 5 stars.
John was the second shooter at our wedding and did an AMAZING job! He was so easy to work with and did such a great job at capturing the special moments of our big day! We love his work!
We hired JP to shoot our engagement photos. He was super personable and friendly. He made the whole experience fun and the photos came out beautifully! I can’t wait for him to take our wedding photos later this year!
John was great, there are no words that can do justice to how amazing of an experience he gave us. Due to it being a wedding during covid we had to make many changes due to venue, event size, schedule, everything and John was great about it all. He listened to what we wanted as far as pictures went and he gave us everything we were looking for and more. He was also quick to answer any questions we had leading up to the wedding and he was so friendly he made everything very relaxing and comfortable. I would definitely recommend him!
John was very easy to work with, he was professional throughout the entire photo shoot. He also had a few tricks to get us to smile and laugh to get more authentic shots. During the shoot, he made us feel comfortable and took our feedback into account. At the end, the photos looked fantastic! John is highly recommended!
We booked John for our wedding and engagement photos. I told him that I wanted my engagement
pictures to be in nature and he recommended Cibolo Nature Center and Farm. I hadnt heard of the area but it was a very beautiful place with lots of unique natural beauty. Our pictures came out way better than I could have imagined. John produces amazing pictures and his knowledge of local areas for backdrops is impressive.
We hired John for our engagement photos and our wedding day! Our engagement session was so much as fun. We wanted to get them done where we met at Six Flags Fiesta Texas. He was willing and excited for the idea. Lots of people were skeptical but he truly told a story and captured a fun filled day. The photos are so beautiful and I am still over the moon about them. I love looking back at them all the time.
Fast forward to our wedding day 10/19/19
He made sure everything was perfect and captured those details you didn’t think of ahead of time. Even with those little side photos he was so willing to capture whatever we asked. He is truly a professional and the images speak for itself. So much fun to have around, so don’t be nervous he will bring out your best smiles and capture the perfect image. You’ll honestly be treating him like a friend at the end because of how fun and cool this dude is.
I will definitely keep his services for future needs and referring him all over so do not pass him up!
