    Amazing wedding photographer

    Jeff was our wedding photographer for our spring wedding, and he did a wonderful job! He was patient, open to suggestions, and truly cared about making sure our wedding photos were exactly how we envisioned. Jeff is also a lot more reasonably priced than many wedding photographers in the area, even with all the experience he brings. He met with us about a month before the wedding to make sure he understood and flow of the day and which photos we wanted to prioritize. We are so grateful for his excellent work on our wedding day and the beautiful photos he delivered. My husband and I wholeheartedly recommend Jeff Darren!

    Incredible

    Jeff was the photographer for our wedding this past December and he did an amazing job. He was very easy to communicate with leading up to the big day, ensuring he knew all the right shots and people we wanted photographs with. We had a large wedding party and he did a great job directing everyone. He delivered the pictures ahead of schedule too. Could not recommend Jeff enough! Hire him!

    Fantastic Work

    Jeff was fantastic to work with! He was so diligent in making sure that we got all the shots we wanted! I love all the candid shots and the portraits, especially the photos that included our pup! He was even more than happy to get some rainy pictures outside since we couldn't get married outside 😊

    Absolutely Amazing

    I had the absolute pleasure of working with Jeff as our wedding photographer, and I can't express how thrilled we are with the results. He is nothing short of amazing!

    From the moment we met Jeff, he put us at ease with his warm and friendly demeanor. He took the time to understand our vision for our wedding day and went above and beyond to capture every moment beautifully.

    Jeff has a remarkable eye for detail and an innate talent for capturing emotions. Our wedding photos are a testament to his skill – each image tells a story, and we can relive our special day through them.

    What sets Jeff apart is his ability to blend into the background, making everyone feel comfortable and allowing for genuine, candid moments to unfold. At the same time, he excels at orchestrating group shots with ease and professionalism.

    The turnaround time for receiving our photos was impressively quick, and the quality exceeded our expectations. Every image is a work of art, and we are beyond grateful to have these memories to cherish forever.

    If you're in search of a wedding photographer who not only captures moments but creates visual poetry, Jeff is the one. He is not just a photographer; he is a storyteller, and his work is simply exceptional. We couldn't be happier with our choice and highly recommend Jeff to anyone seeking the best in the business. Thank you for making our day unforgettable!

    Will definitely call again

    Jeff documented our wedding day phenomenally. His package prices are reasonable, especially for the quality of work. We got over 900 images of our wedding day and they're all so beautiful I'm going to have a hard time deciding which ones to put in our album! Even though I'm a slacker and didn't make a shot list (sorry 😬) Jeff knew exactly which family shots to take. He was even able to recreate a photo from my parents' wedding almost 40 years ago without a reference shot (again, my bad). I can't wait to share my photos with my friends and family. We'll definitely call him again for any photography needs.

    We Made the Right Choice

    Jeff was a pleasure to work with. When I first called him, we had no clue what our day was going to look like, knowing only that we had to have a church, food, and someone to take pictures. He guided me through what he expected and didn't list prices until the end of our 45 minute call, unlike every other photographer who listed their packages and hung up. On Saturday (our wedding), he was there bright and early and got loads of pictures all day. He was very attentive and got pictures of all of our big moments. We just can't wait to see them! Finally, he was very accommodating of a member of our wedding party with epilepsy and took great care to avoid unnecessary flash and to use more natural lighting wherever possible. We would strongly recommend you hire Jeff for your wedding.

    Highly recommended

    We loved our experience with J. Darren Photography! Jeff was very easy to work with - he responded very quickly to communication, modified our package to exactly what we wanted (we only needed 3 hours for our wedding & he still managed to get us 1000 photos!), & got us our photos in a timely manner. On the day of, he arrived early to set up and was very efficient in getting the photos we wanted while making sure they were high quality. We even had 2 dogs to include in our photographs and he did great with them. The lighting in all our photos is perfect, he had lots of creative ideas, and we absolutely love our photos. We would highly recommend Jeff for a wedding or any other photography needs!

    Excellent photography service

    Jeff did such a great job photographing our wedding. He was super helpful in helping us decide what shots were important and suggesting how we might get the best shots. He was so helpful and professional on our wedding day. We got all of the shots we'd hoped for and more. He did great paying attention to things at the reception and we have so many good candid photos. Jeff was great!

    The Best Decision I made as a bride!

    Jeff was the best decision we made in our entire wedding process. He was very professional and experienced during all our shoots. We did our wedding and engagement photos with Jeff, not only do I love them, I get comments all the time about how great the photos are. He has a very keen eye for angles and lighting that will get you photos you will cherish. As I mentioned very professional, on time, very accommodating, and wonderful to work with, I can't say enough great things about him. I would highly recommend Jeff!!!

    Wonderful Experience

    Jeff is incredible. The past reviews say it all - he is beyond patient, calm, kind, and a wonderful photographer. He worked with us on rescheduling our engagement session multiple times. He also was so willing to see out our vision as we splashed around in the water (he even got knee deep as well). He provided us with extra time for our engagement session and our wedding day. We are thrilled with his work and hope to one day use him for family photos as well. Thank you, Jeff!

    If you want the best, hire Jeff

    Hire Jeff now! He was absolutely incredible to work with and there is no way I'm going to be able to capture all the reasons why without writing a full dissertation. Not only is Jeff personable and great to work with (he is SO easy going and keeps a calm demeanor even when the surroundings are hectic), he has a good eye for unique shots, and was 1000% on top of all the requests I gave for photo "must haves" (which was a lot considering my immediate family is 20 people....). Unlike other vendors, I didn't have to give a single thought to Jeff the day of the wedding and he got the job done well and quickly. We had over a dozen children in our wedding party and Jeff got nearly every one to look at him for the picture. He was very flexible when we needed to reschedule our engagement shoot (twice! oops....) and I LOVE that you get so many photos back! That gives me the opportunity to decide which ones are my favorite out of similarly done photos. You get a convenient link to a gallery so you can easily send it to your VIPs to download/order prints as well. I could go on and on, but truly 10/10 would hire Jeff again in a heartbeat! Not only an amazing photographer, but you can just tell that he's "good people" :)

    Fantastic!!

    We used Jeff in November 2021for engagement photos and in April 2022 for our wedding! Just is super easy going and works very hard to give you the exact moments you want captured for your special day! We are so happy with the photos from both sessions and will definitely be using him for any future shoots! When weather or clouds are not cooperating, Jeff has a plan B for your initial plan A! He is also patient with working with antsy toddlers that are not always apt to cooperate!

    Patient, Helpful, Kind

    We have worked with Jeff on numerous occasions and he has become like family to us. He is extremely patient, we have a now 1.5 year old he photographed from birth up until recently, for our wedding. Jeff knows our style well, and directed us with us on how to look and stand. He caught all of the important moments without fail and most importantly, we never felt rushed and enjoyed ourselves.
    His pricing is beyond fair, especially for the incredible work he produces and quick turnaround times.
    We want to thank you again for photographing the wedding of our dreams!

    Jeff Is the Photographer to Hire!

    My wife and I were so happy with Jeff’s work and his professionalism. While we were looking for photographers, we looked at several photographers, and Jeff stood out to us. We felt that his pictures were a cut above, and we liked his positive attitude and his attentiveness to our preferences. Jeff was kind enough to meet with us several times on Zoom to talk with us about what pictures we wanted for our wedding, which we really appreciated. He printed the list out on the wedding day and was able to get all the shots that we wanted. He was patient with us even with our unique photo requests. He was excellent at directing people in each of the photos in order to perfectly capture each of the shots that we envisioned. Another thing we really appreciated was that he sent our photos to us several weeks earlier than promised. It was such a joy to relive our day with the pictures that he photographed so perfectly. We highly recommend him for your own wedding.

    Wonderful and amazing

    Our wedding was a success because of J. Darren. We couldn’t ask for a better photographer, he was very professional and on time. He knew where to get the best shots and how to make ever picture perfect. Really made our day and got so many pictures that I didn’t know he had gotten. Thanks again and for any occasion we have you will be our man.💖

    Kind, accommodating, and so talented!

    We are beyond happy with everything Jeff did for our wedding. He was incredibly understanding with changes we had to make due to COVID19 and so flexible; the day-of was hectic and a little unorganized on our end because we had to re-arrange so much but Jeff just rolled with it and produced some beautiful pictures. He was so nice and helpful! There are some really creative pictures from the wedding that we are in love with. He was able to take a lot a wonderful shots even though we had a very short ceremony with just family. People have been shocked (and impressed) that the photos were taken in a backyard; he utilized the woods beside the house and angled it so that you can't even see the houses around. It made the day feel extra special. I'm so glad Jeff was our photographer and we will definitely be reaching out to him again if any other photography needs come up. We highly recommend him!

    Words cannot express how impressed we were with Jeff photographing our wedding. Despite all the craziness and the ever changing weather he was beyond patient and amazing.

    Fantastic Photographer

    My husband and I had booked Jeff for our wedding 09/05/20 where we originally planned for 40 guests. Due to Covid, we had to change everything from the location to number of guests. Jeff was accomodating and changed his entire schedule for us without hesitation. He did an outstanding job. We absolutely love our pictures and will cherish them forever.

    Amazing work! He is just a great person to work with.

    Jeff made sure we were comfortable,he is very friendly and made sure to get our ideas and input during and after section. . Jeff did an amazing job in both sections we had with him, our engagement and an after wedding shoot which included my bridals. Due to COVID-19, we had to cancel our beach wedding, so we decided to just get married at the court house and do a photo shoot. Jeff did such a great job and was so patient with my fur baby!! We are very thankful for him!
