Solid Rock Photography

pher, Maria, was also so kind and great to work with.

him. He made everyone feel comfortable, which is so important when he’s going to be taking pictures of you all day. During the ceremony and reception, we barely noticed that he was there—in a good way! He didn’t get in the way of anything, but he was still capturing every special moment and taking pictures of us, our bridal party, our families, and our other guests. Jamal and our videographer worked so well together too, which made everything so calm and comfortable. I can’t say enough good things about Jamal, and I highly recommend him to photograph any event.

ted perfectly and didn’t miss any candid moments. Lastly, photos came out great and on a timely manner. Highly recommend Solid Rock for your photographer services. Thanks again Jamal!!!

l before the big day to iron out all of the details and make sure that everything ran smoothly on the day of the wedding. On our actual wedding day a hurricane came through, requiring us to move our wedding inside and change our wedding photo locations. Jamal adapted to everything crazy the day threw at us and took absolutely beautiful photos! I cannot recommend him enough!!

a great guy! We loved working with Jamal and we would highly recommend to use him as your wedding photographer! Our pictures came out absolutely perfect!

the process, and was always available to us when we needed him. Jamal is very detail oriented and made sure he knew about every single important item for our wedding. Jamal had great ideas for our wedding pictures and delivered throughout the night capturing wonderful moments. On top of everything, Jamal is also a great guy, easy to talk to and fun to have around on your wedding day. We will recommend Jamal to anyone!

ating when we changed our venue and photography needs several times over due to COVID. Our wedding day turned out to be very rainy - and he readily stood out in the pouring rain to capture our first look and pre-ceremony photos. After he left for the evening, our guests could not stop raving about how wonderful Jamal was! And of course, our wedding photos came out beautifully (he is a very talented photographer!) and perfectly captured our special day. I highly recommend Jamal for your wedding photography needs - if I could give more than 5 stars, I would!!!

: fun lifts, dancing… just being ourselves! Jamal was also great about finding different locations at the venue, cuing us where to look, and giving us different postures to try so that we got a great variety of pictures! The photos are all clear and beautiful, not easy to accomplish on a 93 degree, brutally sunny day with no cloud cover! All our family and friends were blown away by the quality of our pictures! We are so happy with the photos from our wedding, and hope Jamal will consider taking photos for us in the future!

as truly the most professional, easy going, passionate vendor we worked with throughout our whole wedding experience. As crazy as it sounds, I don't think our day would have been as special as it was without him there - his attentive yet calming energy was EXACTLY what we needed on our big day. We had booked two photographers with Solid Rock for our 10/10/20 wedding that was supposed to have 120+ guests but due to COVID-19, we decided in August to do a small ceremony/reception with just Jamal in a totally different location. Jamal was understanding, adaptable, and communicative the whole time and really eased our nerves for the day of. He arrived on time, was willing to do anything he could to make sure he got the perfect shot, and made everyone feel extremely comfortable. Though we only had him for a few hours before the ceremony (getting ready, first look, tons of couples photos, family photos, etc) through an hour after the ceremony, he totally maximized the time and got some BEAUTIFUL shots. He was so great, we even had family members coming up to us letting him know how much they liked him!! I could honestly go on and on about how great Jamal and Solid Rock Photography is - he made such a strong positive impression on us that we've been recommending him to everyone we know. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do yourself a favor and go with Solid Rock Photography for your big day. You will absolutely NOT regret it!!!

y step of the way. The day of he was super prompt and made not only me, but also my bridesmaids and even my super shy flower girl feel so comfortable! We LOVED our pictures and can’t believe how quickly we got them back! No regrets in hiring Jamal and will be using him again in the future!

o happy with his quick edit time. During the shoot he made us feel comfortable and we had a lot of fun. He knew where to take photos and put us in the scenery of the venue that made sense because we had no idea where to pose but we trusted his vision. I love how our photos came out and can’t wait to share our new engagement photos with our family. I would definitely recommend him for an engagement and wedding shoot! Jamal was approachable and not intimidating which made us feel comfortable the whole day.

the wedding, but we did speak to him over the phone about a week or two before. The day of the wedding he was phenomenal with communicating his ideas about shots as well as his whereabouts if he was going to be out of site and taking pictures of decor or other vendors, etc. He was super flexible with my husband and I since we were pretty laid back about what pictures to take and where to take them. We felt so at ease the entire day around Jamal. He came with two cameras because he was buy himself but he honestly took the most phenomenal pictures (although we're not surprised as we started stalking his Instagram and FB posts before and after we booked him lol). Jamal is the photographer for your wedding if you want someone who is timely, positive, super professional, and relaxed. We have nothing but sweet things to say about Jamal! He is awesome and you will not regret booking him!

e put into our day making us feel special and so comfortable. He has great ideas and took so many pictures. If you are looking for a photographer look no further because it doesn't get any better than Solid Rock.

informative. He helped direct the poses and gave positive affirmation, because lord knows I’m the far from a model. Lol. I loved working with him. He was punctual yet flexible to the needs of our day. I could not have asked for more. You won’t be disappointed if you book him. Guaranteed!!

for what they do. He was flexible with my day-of timeline and catered to changing circumstances. There were times during the reception that he seemed to come out of nowhere to grab a shot! I highly recommend this company if you are searching for a great photographer!

, and was a steady presence amidst the chaos of the festivities. Most importantly, he took beautiful pictures.

y call and meeting. He responds so quickly and thinks through every little detail. We didn’t give him the easiest job of corralling a huge family, lots of kids, and photos with 100+ people. He happily took photos of us on the beach in 90+ degree heat. At the reception, the AC wasn’t working in the venue properly and he still kept going like an energizer bunny. He took the most gorgeous photos of our special day----we really couldn’t be happier. Prior to our wedding day, I mentioned to Jamal that my husband sometimes looks super awkward in photos or won’t smile, etc. and he looks so handsome and comfortable in all of the photos Jamal took. My favorite photos turned out to be the first look photos, which I thought were going to look kind of awkward/super staged. They looked totally natural and captured how we were feeling at the time. There were some really great candid shots, as well. Everyone felt totally comfortable around him. Our wedding was on a Sunday and Jamal had already shot a wedding the Saturday and another wedding the Friday before. He was still extremely energetic and immediately uploaded the photos. I couldn’t believe how fast we got back the proofs. Finally, the price was by far the most reasonable I found. I will add photos once I get back the edited versions (still need to narrow down which we want edited because there are so many good ones)! I really recommend Jamal for your photographer for any event.

e was always any easy message away for any changes in the day-of plan or just general questions we had. Our final meeting was thorough and he was well-equipped to take on day-of. He and the second photographer we booked through him were set up before we arrived and immediately began to give direction. His presence was calming and he was an honest joy to be around. The whole day and night went smoothly and we received our proofs within a few short days! Even our selected edits came back very quickly! Jamal was everything we hoped for and we are very happy with our decision to go with him.

t of pictures that I would want, but he got every single moment in a picture perfect way! Jamal from the bottom of our hearts THANK YOU for making our day so perfect.

h turned out like a fairytale. For our engagement photoshoot he met us on the Atlantic City Boardwalk where my husband and I first met and captured magical moments that we hadn't even imagined. The way he positioned us and directed us through the photoshoot was brilliant. For our wedding day he met us at Blue Heron Pines Golf Club and was ready to take every photo we'd previously discussed. He worked with our videographer seamlessly and didn't skip a beat. Thanks to Jamal we have memories from our wedding that will never be forgotten. If you are searching for a photographer look no further, Jamal is your guy!

h big events coming up.

h the flow! We had a little family trouble halfway through the day, but Jamal never missed a beat and made sure he kept the focus on my husband and I! He's so kind and makes sure he gets whatever shots we want! We got our proof pictures not even 12 hours later!! I would recommend him to EVERYONE!
