Wheeland Photography

il and a true gift for photography. All of my wedding photos turned out absolutely beautiful and I couldn't be happier!

ly every moment of our day, allowing us to cherish these memories forever. I honestly couldn't have asked for a more professional, caring, and personable photographer! Thank you so much, Janet! I will definitely be recommending you to all of my engaged, and single, friends ;)

with us to make sure she understood everything we wanted. She got everything we wanted and more! She did an awesome job and we can recommend her enough!

eel in love with her work and personality. Janet is so sweet, helpful, organized, and thoughtful when working with her clients. She gives great advice and really helps you organize your day or choose the best place for photos that compliments each couple's style. Janet seriously does amazing work! She is professional, creative, and very talented. She is a true expert photographer and captures the sweetest most natural moments. I couldn't be more happy with my engagement and wedding photos from her. She is so much fun to work to work with because she is friendly and very knowledgeable in the wedding and photography field. She has given me so many special moments to relive. There are so many photos that are my absolute favorites and I seriously love all the photos. She captured all my special moments, details, and more from my wedding day. I can't express how thankful I am to have had her as our photographer. She truly is the BEST!!!

ake them feel comfortable and at ease. On my wedding day she bustled my dress for me, fixed my hair, and other small random acts of kindness that made me feel like I had a dear friend by my side all night. The next day, she texted me 5 sweet shots to my phone! And then had my large picture book and 2 parent books ready in less than 2 months--simply amazing. Like I said, Janet is the best there is.

ations to take photos! Janet also wanted to take the time to get the right shot! Our wedding day was just perfect! Janet and her team took SO many pictures, ones I really wanted and then some! She was able to capture so many perfect moments!! Not only is she talented, but she is a true gem!! Take my advice-- pick Janet as your photographer and you will NOT be disappointed!

t!!!

able before the wedding by explaining everything about the process, she also spent extra time with me before the wedding to make sure everything was taken care of. Her artistic eye and love for her work make her photography one in a million.

r nice, very knowledge, talented and a joy to work with! Highly recommend

so thrilled that we booked her for our wedding. I wouldn't trust anyone else to document our big day. Book her as soon as you can because she is quite popular!

booked an engagement photo session to get to know Janet before our big day. Janet made us feel very comfortable and helped us relax in front of the camera. Nearly every picture we got from both the engagement session and our wedding were fantastic. Janet was always extremely professional and very responsive, and her pricing is very affordable. We couldn't be happier with how our photos turned out and are so glad we chose Wheeland Photography!

leg. When we met Janet I knew she was the photographer who was perfect! She understood our vision and knew the venue we used very well! Janet Wheeland is the photographer everyone should use! She's amazing, friendly and will give you an amazing final product!

& wedding) turned out AMAZING and she delivered them to us SO quickly- we couldn't believe it! She is a true professional. From the moment we hired her, she was so easy to reach. I never worried about being able to communicate with Janet and that is HUGE when you’re deep into planning a wedding! She knew exactly how to keep my husband happily going when he started to get restless with pictures. And we received SO many compliments at and after our wedding about how friendly she was, her ability to seamlessly integrate with the party and capture some wonderfully candid moments, and her professionalism! She caught everyone's personalities exactly making the candid shots some of our favorites! Even though she was busy all day, she managed to find some time to print out a few photos for us AT THE WEDDING. We were literally blown away! It was wonderful to have those photos right then for us and to share with family; not to mention they are absolutely beautiful!! Hiring her was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Her work is outstanding and, despite being so busy, she goes above and beyond to make you feel like the only clients she has. We honestly can't say enough good things about Janet and would (& have) definitely recommend her!

on with her like she knew exactly what I was visioning for my wedding. We decided to book with her, not only because of her personality but her pricing was very reasonable. We booked a full day of wedding photography with included an engagement session (yey!) When it came to our engagement I have to say for a couple like my husband and I being so unaffectionate and goofy Janet made us feel so comfortable. I have never in my life taken such beautiful and fun photos. She let us be our self but still directing us when necessary. On our wedding she was so amazing, she didn't only fill the role as photographer but as coordinator and helping the florist, videography and me get ready and fixing my hair and make-up. Janet captured all the important parts of my wedding and all the little details for me to remember late down the line. She is so great that my picky family even loves her. So much in fact she is booked for my cousins wedding in September. If you are looking for someone that genuinely cares about you and has a big passion for what she does Janet is the way to go. out of everything I booked for my wedding Janet was by far the best investment we made. - Anisa & Vinh Tran 05/07/16

Dates. She is very friendly and put us at ease during the shot. She is extremely professional and was prompt at returning our emails and getting back the edited pictures. Did I also mention she is a great photographer? She went out of her way to take some great sunset and night shots. For the time she spends and the number of edited pictures she provides, this was a great value. If I was getting married in California, I would have also used her as the wedding photographer. I highly recommend Wheeland Photography.

er, she was all this while being friendly, graceful, and an all-around positive force for our wedding. My wife and I are not the most lovey dovey of couples. We're not Daria Morgendorffer either, but we don't exactly exude puppy dog eyes and eskimo kisses. Because of this, searching for a wedding photographer and looking at so many lovingly photographed couples brought its own specialized anxiety. Would we ever be able to find someone who could photograph us as well as these couples? Even moreso, would we be able to find someone who could capture OUR personality in the photos and not just put us in pre-packaged poses and looks that would only nag at us as "forced" or "artifical" as we looked through the photos years later? With Wheeland Photography, we got exactly what we were looking for. Janet provided an experienced guiding hand, implementing poses and looks that resulted in photos that we feel capture our genuine love and affection for each other and that also exude our personality and sense of humor in a real and organic way. As strong we feel her portrait work may be, what initially drew our attention to Wheeland Photography is Janet's ability to capture impressive candid photos. Looking through her samples, you'll find amazing candid photos that convey a depth of mood and emotion. We constantly found ourselves thinking, "Wow, wish we could've been at that wedding!" Initially, we wondered if all these great photos were staged. But having her seen her work at our wedding and receiving the resulting photos, we can say conclusively that she is just THAT good at finding those moments. Many of these candids have easily become our favorite photos of our family and friends. Wheeland Photography was equally impressive post-wedding with a quick turnaround. We received an emailed preview of our photos within a week and received all of our photos about a month after that, and they were easily sharable with our family and friends. Janet was very clear in our initial meeting that we owned our photos and we could do with them and reproduce them as we saw fit. To our surprise, this was not necessarily the case with other photographers that we researched. All in all, we are incredibly happy that we choose Wheeland Photography and can refer without any hesitation. Janet captured our special day with photos that are ours in every sense, but we still look through the pictures and we can't help but think, "That looks like it was an amazing wedding!" Relevant details: - Wheeland Photography was presented to us as a preferred vendor by our wedding venue (Aliso Viejo Country Club). - We booked 6 hours for coverage of both our ceremony (outdoor) and reception (indoor).

l! The day of our wedding, Janet showed up to the hotel wide awake and ready to go! She really helped move us along! I absolutely love candid photos and during the reception, Janet took the most perfect shots of my friends and family dancing! Janet is so sweet and attentive to the bride and groom. She's fun but still very professional! I give Wheeland Photography 5 stars because the quality of Janet's work and the amount of care given to each client does not compare to anything else. Janet's the best!!

eat. At the time my wife and I were living in different locations out of the SoCal area, despite this Janet was incredibly responsive and worked with us to perfectly capture our special day. We received our beautiful photos much faster than we expected and were so impressed by the quality of the compositions Janet created for us. We are so incredibly grateful to have worked with her.

ach setting.

ne who made us feel so free to be ourselves on a such stressful day. While on our honeymoon we got samples in an email, and our digital photo album came quicker than we could have imagined! Everything we had hoped for and then some! Thanks a lot Janet!

pick one that I like the most! We had 26 people in our wedding party and Janet was calm and got some great group photos. She was with me from 12:00 noon to 12:00 midnight and she took photos the entire day capturing some very emotional photos! My friends and family keep telling me how beautiful the photos are and have been saying what a wonderful job Janet did! I would definitly recommend Wheeland Photography to other brides!! Janet will respond to emails and phone calls very quickly, she will make you feel comfortable during your photo session and most of all she will take some beautiful photos on your special day. Thank you Janet! Melissa

pictures! Thanks Janet for being amazing!

day, she answered my questions quickly, gave me advice, and got all the pictures I wanted. Janet does great things with lighting, and making light look natural even when it is not. She truly has an eye for what she does. You won’t be disappointed in her work.

icnic, a couple's photo shoot (in lieu of an engagement shoot done months before), and of course, all aspects of our big day! The value was out of this world. Her photographs were high quality, beautifully lit, vibrantly colored, and tremendously framed. Her rapport with guests of all ages was excellent; she brought out the best in everyone. She learned about religious traditions outside of her own, worked well as part of our vendor team for long days with unwavering energy, and was incredibly self-sufficient. She caught all the details that were important to us, and so many spontaneous moments! For example, she creatively used a party favor to back-light a beautiful shot at the end of the evening in front of the moon! Simply, she's incredibly talented!! And yet, her persona is a quiet professionalism. Throughout the weekend, she was always "there" when we wanted her to be, and never in a way that detracted from the experience itself. She sent us a highlights album before we were even home from the honeymoon, and then a beautifully presented digital file album in exactly the time frame promised. Personally, she was easy to work with from the start, just a pleasure to have as part of our celebration --and somebody who we intend to call on to capture all of life's important moments ahead!

ping in our 18 bridesmaids and groomsmen as well as two large crazy families !! Not only was she a great photographer but she helped with some coordinating and made my crazy day feel effortless. I high recommend her and can't wait to use her for more events as our family grows!

rking with Janet and I'd recommend her to all the brides out there wanting beautiful, elegant, and artfully framed shots... I also like to comment that on my wedding day it was so easy to have a female photographer in the room with me while I was getting ready... Janet was fantastic to work with and she made me and my fiance feel at ease and comfortable on our wedding day. Thank you Janet!
