    A joy to work with

    I hired Joanna after she photographed two other weddings that I was a bridesmaid in because I got to see how she works and puts the bridal party at ease. Her photos are stunning, she focuses on capturing the real you, and she has fun with it, keeping you smiling and engaged even when there's a lot of photos to take. She worked really well with our other vendors too and made the day feel relaxed. I love so many of the photos from our special day that now I'm just having a hard time deciding which to frame and put in an album! It was also great to get a small batch of photos right after the big day and then the full albums came promptly a month after the wedding. Thank you, Joanna!!

    Joanna Miriam Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much for your reply Sandy. We were all waiting for your dream wedding and it did not disappoint. I loved having past brides as your bridesmaids too! It was like a reunion. Now it's time for the groomsmen to get engaged so we can keep this party going:)

    Fun and Enthusiastic Professional

    From the moment we first met Joanna, we knew she was the photographer for us. Her energy and enthusiasm is unmatched. She understood the exact vibe we were looking for and made us feel as though we would not be stiff on our wedding day. Due to COVID, we had to postpone multiple times and Joanna was very helpful and flexible along the way. With our final date approaching, she was not able to make it herself but sent two charismatic professionals just as amazing as she is. Both JC and Jenny brought the same awesome and energetic vibe we loved about Joanna. They were a perfect representation of her and her business. I will definitely recommend her to family and friends, and will 100% be using her in the future for all photo needs!

    I honestly don't know where to begin. Joanna and her crew are absolutely AMAZING!! We met by fate, and I am so thankful we did. I couldn't imagine my wedding day any differently. She really knows her role, and made my day perfect. She is on top of her work, makes you feel comfortable, has a fun personality, knows how to communicate with large crowds of family chaos, and has great advice. Most of all her photography is absolutely stunning, and she has a true passion and love for what she does, and it shows. We honestly couldn't imagine having anyone else do our photography. It was truly the best day of our lives, and Joanna helped add to that. I would recommend her over and over again!

    Joanna shot our wedding at Firestone Vineyard in Los Olivos last weekend. She blew us away.

    Our bridal party, family and friends were all talking about how great she was -- super efficient, knew exactly how to direct people, and delivered a stunning preview THAT NIGHT. She scouted locations that our planner didn't even know existed on the property, and negotiated access to parts of the vineyard that would typically be off limits.

    We had a tricky timeline since our ceremony started around 6pm and the sun set at 6:45... and we didn't do a first look. I REALLY didn't want to do a first look despite the limited daylight that would leave us with, and Joanna assured me we could make it work. She was literally RUNNING to make it happen for us, put us in her car and drove us around to chase the light. It was impressive, and we will never forget seeing each other for the first time from the aisle.

    Joanna was super responsive, quick to hop on the phone or email back about my many obnoxious questions. Absolutely blown away by her professionalism and quality of her work.

    There simply are not enough words to describe how amazing Joanna is! Joanna was the photographer for my wedding in June 2017, and she far exceeded any expectations I had. My husband and I met her with before the wedding, and I knew she would be the perfect fit. She is kind, loving, friendly, helpful, honest, and so so talented. The day of the wedding, Joanna and her associate fit right in with our friends and family. Everyone loved her!

    Throughout the whole day, she was there to make sure every moment was captured perfectly. I was also really impressed at how well she managed time, especially with large families! Seriously, she is amazing! I can't stop looking at all of our wedding photos... They are so beautiful! I can't recommend Joanna enough for your wedding! She will go above and beyond to help you, even if it has nothing to do with photography. She will make you laugh, do everything in her power to get the best shots, and of course will give you the most memorable wedding photos possible.

    We love Joanna and couldn't imagine having anyone else as a part of our wedding day!

    Joanna is crazy talented! My husband and I first saw she at our friends wedding, which was like 100 degrees out and Joanna was hustling!! After seeing our friends wedding photos and knowing how hard this girl works, we were sold! It's amazing how she captures the little details to the big details. We booked her for both engagement and wedding. I had surgery before our engagement photos and even with a cast on my hand, she still was able to capture the most beautiful photos! (and it made for a good story!) If you have never taken professional photos before, it can be a little weird and awkward, but Joanna made it extremely comfortable and non-awkward! So by the time our wedding came around, it felt more like having another one of our friends there than a photographer! She is VERY speedy with getting our photos to us!! We HIGHLY recommend Joanna. We will definitely be using her for future family photos when that time comes around!

    Joanna was an amazing wedding photographer and we have the photographs to prove it. She was easy going and professional and adjusted to what we wanted day of the wedding. She was thoughtful when posing photographs and had scouted out the property the day before so she had several ideas of where to do first looks, bride and groom photos, etc. I would most highly recommend Joanna!!

    I could not speak more highly of Joanna! She was referred to us through our friends and as soon as my husband and I met her, we knew that she was the most perfect person to have on board. Joanna was super helpful from the start and even gave us contacts and tips for our honeymoon destination, which was extremely helpful. We absolutely love reliving our big day through the beautiful photos that she captured. We could not be happier!

    Joanna's work has only brought glowing comments when friends and relatives see the pictures she took. Whether it is a candid shot or a portrait shot it always comes out great. Get a big album because it is hard to choose which pictures you will like the best. Her versatile background in photography allows her to bring out the best in people no matter the circumstance.

    If I could describe Joanna in one word, it would be amazing. We had very specific ideas of what we wanted for our wedding and Joanna was the one photographer that could pull it off. We were more than happy with her work, professionalism and can-do attitude. Joanna was able to "corral" family members with finesse, treating everyone with respect and kindness. If you are in need of a photographer to capture your most important memories, Joanna is the one for the job. Whether your style is more traditional or cutting edge, Joanna can get it done.

    My wife and I used Joanna and her team for our wedding last August. We couldn't have been happier with how they turned out. Joanna made everything so easy leading up the big day. On the big day things couldn't have gone any smoother. The pictures before the wedding, during the ceremony and after the ceremony were top notch. There were also some great action shots during the reception that Joanna was able to get, which didn't surprise me with her experience as an actions sports photographer. When my wife needs cheered up she just looks at our wedding pictures and she gets so happy. Throughout the process we had a great photographer that became a great friend. If you use Joanna for any occasion I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

    Absolutely amazing pictures-Joanna is an artist. I wasn't sure what I wanted and she worked with me, guided me and captured my entire wedding day with such an artistic flair. Joanna is very creative, professional, and low key-in some ways, you would never know she was taking pictures as she captured the entire day as it happened and didn't miss a beat. She put together the poses, settings, props and groups in a way I would have never imagined. If you want to display your wedding in an artistic and natural setting, Joanna is the one for you. I love her work!

    We LOVED Joanna Miriam! I fell in love with her photos and her personality from the moment I met her. She really took the time to get to know my husband and I and made sure that we got all the photos that were really important to us. All of our guests commented on how great she was and she was instrumental in keeping the evening moving smoothly. She posted edited pictures to Facebook that evening and we woke up to hundreds of comments from friends and family who were blown away at her talent and quality! We look forward to having Joanna take photos of our family for years to come!

    Joanna was simply amazing. We used her for two separate events, our newborn baby pictures and a birthday party. She was very courteous, creative and ultra professional. She took some of the best pictures that we have ever seen. She captured priceless moments that will be treasured forever. We will never use any other photographer ever again, we have found the ONE!! I highly recommend her for any occasion.
