Jim Kennedy and his team were our photographers and videographers for our wedding. They were super professional and captured our day so perfectly. I have also never heard of getting wedding pictures and videos back so quickly, but we had our full photo album within 2 weeks and our videos back about 3 weeks later after our wedding. The turnaround time was insane. We also had Jim capture our engagement shoot as part of our package and we were so happy with those pictures. It was so nice to get a taste of what our wedding day would be like ahead of time. The pictures turned out so perfectly. I am planning on getting a wedding album, but it will be hard to choose from the 2000 pictures we got back. I’m still in shock with how many pictures we received and how quickly we received them. The parents (and us) are obsessed with the pictures. We added on an extra hour last minute and are so glad we did, because then he was able to capture our CO2 gun surprise for our guests. He made IG highlight reels of the wedding and of the reception. I honestly don’t remember if that was in our package or not, but it was so fun to open up insta to a notification of our wedding highlights during our honeymoon. You can also tell that he has been in the business for a long time, because he knew all the good spots for the pictures, knew the tricks to get one of our nieces’ attention for pictures (she was a 6 month old baby), was so efficient with timing, and got everything he needed quickly. We were able to get all the preceremony pictures done with 45 mins to spare before the wedding started. After the ceremony, we got all the extended family and bridal pictures done, had time to practice our first dance (which they pictured and filmed so they could know when the highlights would be), sit and take a breather to eat and drink by ourselves, and THEN still had time to mingle with our guests and take more candid pictures with everyone. We did extend our cocktail hour to be 1h 15m, which I think was ideal. I can’t say enough good things about Jim and his team, thank you so much for working with us during our wedding!!

We worked with Jim and Megan for our wedding day and they did a phenomenal job. Megan shot our engagement pictures and she was so nice and helpful with poses. Jim did an amazing job wedding day with positioning everyone, making sure we ran on time, and getting chatty family members to smile for the photo. Megan once again posed us all perfectly for the "action" shots. We highly recommend them, they were great and our pictures turned out beautiful!

We worked with Jim Kennedy Photographers for both photo and video services. They have done a lot of weddings at our Venue, Talega, so we were confident they would knock it out of the park. And they did!

I cannot recommend them more! Cheryl was our lead photographer and we did an engagement session with her a month before to get comfortable. She was great at directing us for our first ever couple's shoot and was extremely responsive. On the wedding day, Cheryl and Ali were so flexible and easy to work with. We're obsessed with the photos and love they mix of classic, candid, and editorial!

Noel & EJ were the videographers and I highly recommend getting both services from Jim Kennedy since the collaboration with the photographers was on point! They made us feel comfortable and got some fabulous shots. We got the teaser & highlight videos and they did a great job capturing the essence of the day.

Thanks so much again to the whole team

From first contacting Jim up until having everything delivered has been nothing but professionalism and great service. I can't recommend him and his team enough for all the hard work and amazing results that came for my wife and I's wedding day. Their work is something we will cherish forever and look back at with no regrets. Always available to communicate and even went above and beyond with recommendations for our own wedding planning which stood out to us. Also want to give a shout out to Megan who was in charge of running things on our wedding day and making sure everything went smooth and we were able to check everything off our list that we wanted documented.

If you're looking for a wedding photographer who is both incredibly talented and a joy to work with, Jim Kennedy is the one! From our first meeting to the big day, Jim made us feel completely at ease with his warm personality and professional approach. He has an incredible eye for capturing genuine moments, and every photo tells a story. His ability to balance candid, emotional shots with beautifully composed portraits is unmatched. Our wedding album is filled with stunning, timeless images that we will cherish forever. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer, and we highly recommend Jim to anyone looking for breathtaking wedding photos!

Ahhh I'm OBSESSEDDD with how our wedding photos turned out!! Our photographer, Cheryl, did the most incredibleeee job with our photos! Even with the lighting issues we had (our ceremony occurred at a bright time and the reception venue was having issues with a bright building security light they couldn't turn off) and she and her team still found a way to make our photos stunning!! Not only was she and her team extremely good at their jobs and quick (and they delivered sneak peaks photos back within just 1 week!!), but they were sooo wonderful to work with. I was stressed before she arrived while we were getting ready since we were running behind, but Cheryl had such a calming, positive, yet go-getter energy that made me feel like everything was going to be okay and that we would get all of the shots we wanted - and she did!! She was so flippin' organized. She and her team were so kind and were definitely a presence I was happy to have near us on our wedding day. And I have no doubts that our video and photo album are also going to turn out just as incredible. Props to Jim as well for being so wonderful, transparent, thoughtful, and helpful throughout this whole process. I highly recommend this company!

Jim & his team were a dream team. Jim was responsive through the planning process, flexible with the package details we wanted and completely understood our vision from the first conversation. The day of they were prompt, so friendly, and non invasive. We were nervous to be photographed all day but it truly felt like we just had some friends hanging out with us. Jim was the ultimate hype man as he took photos! He made me feel so confident and would tell me what’s working, what to change, how to pose. Our photos turned out better than we ever dreamed. He captured our candid moments beautifully and best of all- they were QUICK. We didn’t feel like we were missing any important parts of the day because they got the shots efficiently. His entire team was incredible. The beach photos he got for us at golden hour are something out of a magazine. Not even a week later we already had some sneak peaks (tons!) and less than a month after the wedding we have all of our final photos and album designed.
There are not enough words to express how grateful we are to have chosen this team! We wish we had another event coming up just to be captured by him again. Thank you Jim & the entire team for such an effortless day that led to beautiful memories captured.

Jim and his team were extremely knowledgable, communicative, and professional throughout our entire wedding experience. He made sure that he met with us prior to booking and our wedding day in order to ensure that it would be a good fit. Jim has frequented our wedding venue, and was able to suggest places and times for photos, including all members of our wedding party and making sure to capture shots of our very large family. He even shared a preview album in the same week as the wedding occurred, with timely turnaround of all other photos. His work is phenomenal, and the shots that he captured were creative and perfect in helping us remember our special day. I HIGHLY recommend working with Jim and his team if you are looking for a seamless wedding photography experience!

Jim and his team were amazing! They made us feel so comfortable throughout so I know our wedding photos will turn out beautiful! He is beyond experienced, so we fully trusted to take his direction and rolled with it!

Jim sent us a tease of some incredible photos the morning after the wedding and we could not be more excited to see the rest! If you are lucky enough that Jim is available on your wedding date, hire him immediately!

We’re genuinely so grateful that we got to have JKP shoot our wedding. They’re a preferred vendor of our venue and have a great reputation in OC, for GOOD reason. Jim is genuinely a great guy and was so personable and professional every time we spoke. On the day-of he was super organized and creative, he was fun and flexible and made the whole experience spectacular. We loved his ideas and loved them even more when the photos came out. Thank you so much to Jim Kennedy and his team for making all of our photography wishes come true!
