Absolute best!

Jenny was hands down the best photographer for our wedding! She flew in from Washington to come to our wedding and was so easy to work with. She was communicative and accommodating! We loved working with her. She was patient and had a fantastic creative vision! It made our lives easy and we got phenomenal pictures. Thank you, Jenny!

Amazing quality of photos and awesome personality

Jenny did such an amazing job of capturing our perfect day! She was so easy to work with and made everything so laid back. The quality of the pictures are breathtaking and on top of everything, Jenny created the perfect slideshow so we can show our friends and family at our reception back home.

Best Photographer Ever!!!!!

We had the pleasure of working with Jenny for our wedding pictures and family pictures at our destination wedding in Hawaii. She is amazing!!!! If I could give her 10 stars I would. She’s so friendly and made our family feel comfortable and even when it was really windy she got the most perfect shots. I wish I could take her everywhere with me so I could always look as great as she made me look.

Now we can look back on our day and remember how great everything was, and we can feel all the happiness we felt in those pictures.

Thank you Jenny you were the absolute perfect choice!!!!

Jenny is the absolute best! She captured my fiance and I's engagement photos and I could not be more in love with them! We were worried the entire thing would be awkward, but Jenny is so fun and calming, she made the whole thing a breeze. She helped us decide on a wonderful spot and walked me through which part of my wardrobe would be best for which area. We're new to Washington and our entire family back home in Texas was jealous of the beautiful scenery after seeing our photos. I have gotten so many compliments on them and we used them for our save the dates. She gave a sneak peek right after our shoot and the entire album was sent to us before we even knew it. They could not have turned out any more perfect! Thanks so much Jenny!

So comfortable to be around, fantastic eye for photos, and easy to work with!

Photography was one of the most important wedding details to me, but my husband hates having his photo taken. So, I was on a quest to find a photographer who not only took incredible photos filled with emotion, but also that my husband was comfortable with. Jenny met with us several times before our wedding to genuinely get to know us. She homed in on what was important to us and what made us unique as a couple. My husband was never uncomfortable around her and they became fast friends.

Sometimes having a photographer in your face all day long can seem forced and awkward, but not with Jenny. She fit right into our crowd and felt like another family friend in the room. She was responsive and flexible to our needs, we got our photos so quick compared to all my other friends who’ve been married, and we so cherish the images she captured. Jenny is the best and I highly recommend her!

Jenny is AMAZING! We had her photograph an engagement session as well as our wedding and I couldn’t be happier with how the photographs turned out. She is very organized and personable, you can tell she really cares about capturing your personality and exceeding expectations. She made plenty of time to meet with us throughout the process and to make sure she knew what we wanted and also suggested poses and backdrops we would never have thought of that ended up being some of our favorite photos. On the day of our wedding, she was able to wrangle our large wedding party (13 attendants and two small children) as well as both families efficiently and effectively. We got all of the photos we wanted and many more without stress or sacrificing time with our guests to do so. The photos themselves are absolutely stunning and everything you could ever want from a professional photographer. Jenny makes quick work of editing so you don’t have to wait long for your gallery and the printer she uses is also very reasonably priced and produces a high quality product. I’ve had portraits done before where you have to spend a small fortune to get only one or two shots printed, but this is definitely not the case with J. Hodges. Jenny captured so much love and excitement, we will truly cherish her work for the rest of our lives!

Jenny was AHHHHMAZING. From the moment we booked her she was beyond professional but also fun and creative! She went above and beyond leading up to our wedding and even on our wedding day we had people coming up to us saying how amazing and personable she is! Our wedding was in Lake Forest, IL on 9/2/17 and she absolutely nailed it. Her eye for detail when we walked the property and her spontaneity during wedding photos was so awesome! She stuck to our time schedule and truly was one the most dependable wedding vendors we used! I have friends that aren't even engaged yet saying they want to use her for their wedding! She's the absolute best. All smiles over here in Chicago, we love our wedding photographer and photos!!!

I am not a talented enough writer to fully express just how AMAZING Jenny and J Hodges Photography are!!! She is the best photographer I could ever imagine working with. Her photography speaks for itself, it is simply stunning. She photographed my wedding as well as a boudoir session my wife gave me as a wedding present. Everything turned out perfectly, we cried when we saw how beautiful they are. All of our guests are still gushing about how amazing our photos are! And this is just mentioning her artistic talent, she is also the most sweet and friendly person to work with. She is always calming, even in the chaos of family wedding photos, and was instrumental in my wife and I enjoying our wedding day and finding time to really reflect and appreciate the day. At every stage, from our initial interview through when we received our photos after the wedding, including all planning and the wedding day, she was everything we could ever ask for (and we were NOT an easy client, I assure you). There is no question, she is the ONLY photographer we will ever hire from now on.

Jenny is a pleasure to work with! She takes the time to get to know each couple and their wants! I love that she sends you a preview of your pictures only a couple days after the session. Her photography is a true talent and her work is great and not to mention she was my favorite and kindest vendor I had ever worked with!

Oh my gosh. We couldn't say enough INCREDIBLE things about the absolute professionalism and personality of Jenny Hodges. She was such a fantastic photographer and we felt so comfortable with her. Upon our first meeting, she was so welcoming that we felt as though we had known her for years. She is professional, organized, friendly, helpful, and an incredible photographer. She had great ideas to help family photos move smoothly. She sent friendly reminders leading up to the big day to help you stay on track. On the day of our wedding, she blended in completely with our guests (we hardly noticed she was taking pictures the entire evening!). She also sent us a sneak peek the day after our wedding and we were BLOWN AWAY with the quality of images she produced. We would hire her again and again for all kinds of events or family photos. Not only are her photos amazing, but her personality will just win you over. We would HIGHLY recommend hiring J Hodges Photography for any event.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
