Manda Jean Photography

I can’t say enough about Manda’s work. You can tell her passion of her profession just by witnessing her shoot. Manda photographed our elopement and will also be capturing our ceremony/larger reception next year. Her eye for finding the right light is top notch and she will do what it takes to get the perfect shot(s)! She provided BEAUTIFUL photos of our actual wedding day. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. We truly hit the photographer jackpot with her and I cannot wait to work with her again!

There's so many wonderful things to say about Manda! First, the quality of her photos are incredible. She knows how to capture the love and moments you'll want to remember for years. I'm stunned how beautiful the photos came out. The amount of compliments I've gotten from friends and family is crazy. I've also gotten people saying they are jealous how great they look. Secondly, she is great to work with. As a bride, I did not have to worry about a thing. She took pictures all night long and didn't stop. She knew how to control and direct people when we had bigger group photos. I do not have a single bad thing to say, so if you are trying to decide between multiple photographers, I promise you won't be disappointed with her!

Manda is so easy to work with and after an engagement shoot and wedding day, she felt like an integral part of our “wedding crew”. Looking through photos from our ceremony and reception made us feel like we were re-experiencing every moment from different angles. Her attention to detail is perfect. We couldn’t be happier with her work.

Manda was truly wonderful to work with. She is incredibly creative and has an eye for amazing photos--we did our engagement shoot at our high school and it turned out stunning!! She was easy going and a breeze. I can't imagine having a better experience with a photographer, recommend her to everyone, and will be using her in the future for family portraits. Thanks Manda!!!

Manda was so incredible to work with! She is so fun and adventurous and she is willing to do everything she can to get the best shot possible. The pictures have come out amazing!

I absolutely ADORE this woman! We had the honor to have her for our engagement shoot and wedding day. She was so easy to communicate with, made the entire process painless, and had AMAZING turn around with our photos/sneak peek. Manda went above and beyond for us on our wedding day from helping try to fix the button that fell off my dress right before leaving for the venue, getting into sticker bushes for the perfect shot, and braving the cold/mud/dirt. She is absolutely phenomenal and I am so happy to showcase her amazing work in my home, forever! I would recommend Manda a 100000 times over.

Easily the best experience with a photographer to date! Manda Jean is super personable and very talented at what she does. She made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the experience. She made sure she got every shot I asked for and made sure everything was perfect. Her work was everything I dreamed of and more! Thanks Manda Jean!!

From start to finish of wedding planning through the wedding, Manda was incredibly professional, flexible, warm, considerate, and helpful. Her presence while working is the perfect amount of joy and serenity - ensuring we got all of the photos we desired with family and friends at our wedding while she captured magical candids that we are forever grateful for. She wrangled the troops for photos as needed and dealt with vendors with ease. We made just a few things a priority for our wedding, and I'm so glad having Manda Jean Photography be a part of our day was a top priority.

Manda was amazing! I felt comfortable with her from our first phone call. I felt that she was genuinely excited to work with me. She was flexible when I was trying to plan our engagement session and was very easy to work with. On the day of our wedding she was wonderful. She captured our day perfectly. From getting ready, to the ceremony, to dancing the night away, she captured so many special moments. She went above and beyond, from helping to light the tea lights on all of our tables when we forgot, to running around with me at the end of the night to get any pictures with friends and family or any photos that we may have missed.

Timely, professional and intimately involved in the process every step of the way. Our engagement photos, wedding photos, and wedding slideshow were of the highest quality. The quality of the photos and the intimacy of the moments captured were equal in measure. Our photos exemplified the joy, laughter, and powerful love of each special moment in our wedding. Could not recommend more highly. Manda Jean, you freakin rock.

When first meeting, I figured our engagement photos would be the typical flair. Find good spots, take a bunch of pictures. It wasn't until the ideas start flowing that you learn just how flexible Manda is when it comes to creativity. Climb down a rock wall? Sure! Whatever you want to do, if there's a way to do it, it'll happen. We had a rather adventurous shoot, and it was fun. The quality of the photos speak for themselves really. High quality, great lighting, just the kind of thing that brings you right back to the moment. Some moments even looked better than I remember. I'm no photographer, but there's quite a few photos she took that I'd say belonged in a magazine. As for Manda herself, well she's everything you'd want. Never intrusive, extremely friendly, and sneaky enough that you completely forget she was there until you see all of the photos. Maybe it was me being occupied with everything, but there's a lot of photos where I can remember the moment they were taken, but don't remember seeing her anywhere. Yet anytime we wanted a specific photo, like magic she's there. There was never a "bossy" feeling or anything. Some might think a photographer should just be a hired resource, but she felt intertwined into everything. Overall, just perfect really. Trying to think of anything negative draws up too many blanks. I can't find one instance that felt like it could be improved. I don't plan on getting married again, and while that's an obvious choice, the downside is that I'll only need her services once.

I couldn't have been happier with our wedding photos! I was drawn to Manda's work because I felt like she really captures the mood. Manda does a wonderful job of capturing the little moments throughout the day. When I look back at my pictures, it brings back all the emotions from the day through her work. Before the wedding, I was able to talk with her and tell her what was important to me. I feel like she captured these little details and more. For having a small micro-wedding, she still did a wonderful job of capturing moments I will cherish forever. Not only did Manda do an amazing job with her photography, but she helped me plan out my timeline and worked seamlessly with my videographer. We thought that they had previously worked together, but they had not. They quickly became a team and worked together to make our day run smoothly.

My experience with Manda Jean Photography was amazing! From the engagement photos to the big day was a great experience. She came up with really creative ideas for the photos and caught great candids too, some of those were my absolute favorite. I have received so many compliments on my photos from both friends and family. Everyone involved was truly happy with the result and Manda's professionalism. My bridal party was a rowdy bunch but she handled us well and moved us along quickly so we did not fall behind. I would recommend her to anyone!

My wife and I were looking for a photographer who understood that we wanted wedding photos that were not typical, run-of-the-mill pictures. Manda Jean came through for us big time -- all of the critical shots were there along with a generous helping of artistic sideline shots. Some of the pictures captured things that we had no idea had happened that day. Her style is creative and tasteful but not overbearing. We have since recommended her whenever possible and have used her frequently for our Christmas card pictures and even other occasions. Manda is a pleasure to work with and a genuinely talented professional.

Manda was a pleasure to work with from first inquiry to final delivery. She has a great eye and was able to capture the essence of our outdoor wedding. She was very professional and easy to get along with. She was able to get a variety of shots, candid and posed, despite my lack of requests and ideas. The photos speak for themselves. I hope to hire her again in the future for other events.
