Everything that we hoped for!

We feel so fortunate to have chosen James to photograph both our wedding day and engagement photos. Our photos are everything that we hoped they would be. James was incredibly kind and understanding throughout our entire engagement process. We started as a 10/24/20 wedding long before COVID was heard of. James worked with us as we navigated rescheduling, downsizing, and all things "COVID" for our 4/10/21 day.

James always came incredibly prepared to any of our meetings and helped calm my nerves by offering to do a walk thru of the timeline and event space the week before the wedding. Our forecast went from ideal Spring weather to overcast and dreary within a day, James made sure that we had a plan for this. We are so grateful for all of these extra details that James helped us see and his effort did not go unnoticed.

Our guests, mothers, and event space coordinators all complimented James, he kept our wedding day running smoothly and always made sure that we (the Bride and Groom) were comfortable and relaxed. By the end, he was not just a photographer, but a friend. I cannot say enough good things, we highly recommend!

Captured Every Moment!

Our wedding was on October 6th in Milwaukee, and James was by far our favorite vendor. He met with us in advance to discuss shots that were important to us. He went to our ceremony and reception site ahead of time to scope out where he could capture the best shots. On the day of our wedding, we received so many compliments from guests about the amazing photographer we had! James worked so hard to capture us with all of our guests...and wow did he deliver! Our dream was to get a picture with the fall leaves in the middle of Wisconsin Avenue. We told him that ahead of time, and he captured photos of this dream we had that were more than we ever could expect. Thank you James for capturing our day so perfectly!
