Best wedding photographer ever!

Jody was amazing--her photography brilliantly and beautifully captured the intimacy, the joy and the magic of our special day. She understood what we wanted and hoped for, and she exceeded our wildest expectations. From the moment we first interacted, we got a special feeling about Jody.
She asked good questions, adapted to our needs, was incredibly responsive to any questions we had, and came through beautifully.
Given the quality of her work, I was amazed at modest her pricing was. And her turnaround time was unbelievable! Truly, we can't imagine any other photographer doing a better job. We highly, highly, highly recommend Jody!

Jody was so collaborative and wonderful when photographing our wedding. She worked with us to help find a package that fit our financial needs and was so responsive as questions came up throughout the process. She took time to meet with us and provide advice about the day-of, and had us over to her house for a slideshow to view the final product. Could not recommend her more readily!!

Jody's photos are amazing - she made everyone look good from the 2 year old to the 97 year old. She captured the spirit and happiness of our event. She was responsive and we received photos the next day to remind us of a great night - and the final album is gorgeous.

Jody is very experienced, professional, personable and accommodating.
She makes you feel comfortable and not at all intrusive in the execution of your event. She has an excellent eye for what your vision would be on your special day. She adds special touches that Jody envisions to enhance your ideas but will work with you in every detail that you desire.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Jody. I planned a surprise trip across the country to San Francisco for myself and my partner of 12 years to get married and she was there every step of the way giving me information about scenery and also providing some information for places to see while we were there. She listened to my needs and went above and beyond to meet them. By the time the months of planning was over and the big day had arrived, I felt like we were old friends. She checked in with us throughout the day to make sure we were getting the shots we desired and she kept our expectations in order by advising us on timing and the best way to maximize the shots we wanted. The pictures were amazing and she delivered on her promises timely. She captured a very important day for us and we'd use her over and over for all of our events if we lived in San Francisco!!! A++++

How to describe Jody...In a word she was our "dream come true" photographer. We couldn't be happier with Jody's work, both during the wedding, and in terms of the end product. On the wedding day, Jody was professional yet warm, thoughtful, amenable to requests, she absolutely never interfered or was intrusive, and was a calming presence. She has a wonderful ability to put you at ease and bring a smile to your face. Her wonderful attitude certainly added to the day, and it's very clear that she has a great deal of experience and is an expert at her trade. And to top it off, she took beautiful pictures that I will enjoy for the rest of my life. I'm sure there are many options out there, but we could not recommend Jody any more - she's just the complete package and of exceptional character.

Jody is a very artistic photographer, who's work reflects her tremendous skills in her craft. She is very responsive to the clients' needs, and she earnestly cares about her clients receiving the highest quality in photography with a relatively quick turn around time from the event to the finished product.

Jody has such a relaxed manner about her and her photos reflect that. Her images show people happy, relaxed and beautiful not overly posed and fake. Her eye is amazing letting simple images speak volumes. You can trust her to implicitly and know the images will be the best.
