    Jackson did a great job, especially capturing all of our candid moments. He is a very talented guy and I would recommend him to anyone.

    Jackson was great in all facets of the event. He had great ideas, was incredibly flexible with us and was very proactive when letting us know how the prints were coming

    Jackson was very easy to work with and very flexible. He came up with some ideas for pictures that I never thought of doing. His flare for catching photos of the kids playing around after the wedding was fabulous!

    Jackson was wonderful. Period! We received exactly what we were promised - and more. We wanted the obligatory family and wedding party photos. But the rest...we wanted total candid, 'capture the day' photography. We received both. Other than the 'posed' family/wedding party photos, where it was all very orchestrated and planned, it was almost as if Jackson wasn't even there. He was 'invisible' yet managed to capture our day in a way we couldn't have imagined being done better. Our experience and final product was over and above our greatest hopes and expectations. Thank you Jackson!

    I really enjoyed working with Jackson! He made things very simple for me and accommodated every need or changes I made. I was on a very tight budget and he made it possible for me to have the pictures I wanted. He is very helpful and even though he was busy during certain times of the year, he assured me that he is still going to be available to help me, when needed.

    My Husband and I really enjoy our photos.

    Thank you Jackson!

    Jackson was very fun to work with and had lots of good picture ideas from where most of our pics were taken.

    Jackson was very respectful, flexible and professional. He offered suggestions and was very helpful in making our special day stand out. I would definitely recommend his services.

    Overall Jackson did a good job with our wedding photos. We appreciated his dedication towards ensuring we received a quality product at the end of the day. My only recommendation would be for Jackson to be a bit more structured in his approach to ensure he captures what we want before the big day.

    I'm not a photographer and usually even with big events, I'm not that big on photos. I was looking for a photographer who would sort of take over and take photos that would document the day. I was also looking for a few really great photos we could frame to put up. With regard to the first, I was pleased. Jackson took a lot of pictures of various guests and little things that i normally don't get captured.
    The entire day he was very accommodating and flexible even staying back later than originally agreed upon. Regarding the latter, I was a bit disappointed. They were ok photos but none really stood out as photos we wanted to put up. For the pre-wedding photo session, I will suggest that you come with ideas of your own of poses, backgrounds, etc. There were photos where everything was really nice except that my dress was folded and crinkled OR a chair was in the background that could have been easily moved, etc. These weren't a lot of pictures but eye to detail in that regard was a bit lacking.
    Having said all of this, Jackson was pleasant to work with and blended in well. I didn't notice him at all during the wedding which I appreciated. Just do a little homework before and unless you are super picky you'll be happy enough. If you know nothing about what you want for your wedding photos, I would recommend going with a photographer who's done tons of weddings and can direct things.

    Jackson is a great guy and was pretty flexible on details within the contract. He took the time to meet with us before the wedding to make sure all of the details were clear. Overall however he was very unorganized and it seemed like he was lost the entire day. I felt like I had to take control and run the show on my big day which takes away from the once in a lifetime experience. When i received our pictures online everything was very sloppy and details were missed. For example, during family pictures people were cut off OR they didn't fit within the backdrop and the things around it were in the picture (windows, chairs). If you want someone who can be creative and artistic go with someone more experience. His prices are lower than average but you get what you paid for...
