I can’t even begin to explain how great of a photographer John is. If you are looking into booking him, don’t hesitate, just do it. You will be blown away!!! Our wedding was so ama...zing because we had John as our photographer (and essentially wedding planner).
Pictures:
John has a fantastic eye for beautiful photos, and knows how to instruct you to get great pictures. He is a pro at really capturing the moments and emotions of the day. Only a couple days after the wedding, we were already getting sneak peeks! John provided a full color gallery, and also a black and white gallery of every picture in the color gallery, which was amazing. He finished both galleries ONLY 2 WEEKS after the wedding, which was absolutely crazy, especially because he provided us with over 2,400 pictures in each gallery. John does not limit the amount of pictures he takes or provides to you. The posed and candid shots he took were fantastic, he captured the joy and laughter of everyone so well. Looking at the pictures, it is amazing we only had one photographer. John really puts his heart and soul into every wedding he photographs, and it shows.
Booking:
John was the photographer at my cousin’s wedding, and after seeing her pictures, I knew I had to book him for my own wedding. Before booking him, he was very clear about all of his packages and made us feel very comfortable with our choice. We absolutely loved being able to get our engagement photos done with him as part of the package because it gave us an opportunity to work together and meet each other in person before the wedding day. His prices are extremely reasonable and he puts so much time and effort into making sure your wedding day goes smoothly.
Wedding Planning:
We had a backyard wedding, which I knew was going to require a lot of planning, but I didn’t realize how much. John saved us. He met with us multiple times and made sure that we were not forgetting anything and we were booking things at the right times to ensure we got the best vendors. Whenever I didn’t know where to look for a vendor, he provided a list of many different vendors he had worked with and recommended based on what we were looking for. All of these vendors were also reasonably priced, and we loved every single one he recommended. Our wedding was unique in that we had 2 different ceremonies: American and Moroccan, and he helped us coordinate both, as well as the timelines of both ceremonies to make sure everything flowed smoothly. Throughout the whole process, he was also extremely flexible and gave us time to make decisions while also making sure we were keeping on track without us feeling rushed.
Professionalism:
John is extremely professional, while also being an awesome guy in general. He always managed to make me smile even when things went wrong. He was able to get things back on track and keep us feeling good. He worked extremely well with all of our other vendors and had multiple individual meetings with these vendors to ensure that they would work seamlessly together on the wedding day. He made sure that everyone felt comfortable in front of the cameras. He was truly fantastic and really made sure we were getting all the pictures that we wanted - and more.
Overall, my husband and I could not be happier with having chosen John as our wedding photographer. We both truly feel that John made the day stress free, relaxing, and fun, and we have amazing pictures and memories of the day because of him.
