  Jonathan Moore Photography came to me via a recommendation from a very trusted photography colleague and he did not disappoint! As I am a professional photographer, I was persistent upon finding someone that was great at capturing people in the moment instead of many staged photos. Jonathan's photo-journalistic style left us with a wonderful collection of us and our friends having the time of our lives.
  
  Jonathan was an excellent selection for a variety of reasons: professionalism, adaptability, friendliness, and creativity.
  
  Professionalism: He was prompt, ready to work, and brought his artistic talents without being overbearing or demanding. Additionally, the transaction on the photos was simple, clear (without hidden fees), and timely.
  
  Adaptability: Everyone should know a wedding day will always come with adjustments needing to be made throughout the day and Jonathan took everything in stride and made sure that we really enjoyed the day and the photo taking experience.
  
  Friendliness: Jonathan took the time to meet with us prior to hiring, he covered all of our events and we walked away with a friendship on top of the professional relationship.
  
  Creativity: Our venue presented some unique lighting opportunities and Jonathan took full advantage. He captured vantage points that I didn't expect and had a way of making everyone look great!
  
  I would highly recommend Jonathan for any photography needs at any event!

  My husband and I wanted a different approach to wedding photography, and we went through dozens of website portfolios until I thought I'd claw my eyes out if I saw one more headless bride bouquet shot. Then along came Jonathan. Jonathan has a photojournalism background and brings that documentary approach to his wedding photography. He has an amazing ability to capture mood and atmosphere, emotion and action wonderfully in his photos, and they are also very artistic, beautifully composed, and have amazing natural light. They are rich in color and really bring you into the moment.
  
  We are thrilled with our wedding photographs. Family and friends have told me they are the best wedding photos they've ever seen. One person who doesn't even like wedding photos told me he loved Jonathan's photographs. Others who weren't even at the wedding have told me the photos made them feel like they were there. We also really liked his unique approach to the Beloved (engagement) session, which, amidst the stresses of wedding planning, gave me and my husband quality time to honestly connect with each other and celebrate our relationship and our future, and as a result, made for truly candid and meaningful photographs.
  
  As for Jonathan himself, he is very professional, prompt and responsive, and always fully prepared. I was especially impressed when, for our Beloved session, I had listed in an email a few locations in downtown LA that I was interested in for the session. When my husband and I showed up, Jonathan had already scouted every spot and knew exactly where we needed to go. At the same time, he is super flexible and rolls with the moment. He is also one of the nicest guys I've met, laid back, down to earth, and simply a pleasure work with. I can't recommend Jonathan highly enough!

  Jonathan's work is outstanding!! He shot our destination wedding in New Orleans a few weeks ago and we are in love with all our pictures! My husband and a majority of his family members are very much into photography and film so it was extremely important that we find the perfect photographer to capture our day in an artistic and meaningful way, Jonathan did exactly that! We wanted a documentary style to our photos and Jonathan's work is absolutely beautiful. He captured all the key elements of the night along with some hilarious and sweet moments that we didn't see. I also loved the concept and outcome of his Beloved session. Those photo's not only look amazing but they hold a place in my heart because of the true emotion behind it. They are better than any staged photo could ever look. I also give him credit, both the mother of the groom and mother of the bride are camera shy and Jonathan managed to get some awesome photos of both and they didn't even realize haha! All in all Jonathan has amazing talent, he puts thought and heart into every photo he takes. We are over the moon in love with our pictures and can’t thank him enough!! I highly recommend Jonathan to any bride looking for meaningful, creative photos that are just stunning!

  Jonathan came recommended highly by my friend and make-up artist that had a chance to work with him at another wedding. After studying his portfolio and having a chat with him, it was obvious that he was a talented photographer that we'd be lucky to have on our team. Jonathan goes that extra mile to really get to know his subjects, so that come that special day, the camera isn't a thought in your mind, and as a result his photos are genuine art pieces. Put simply, his photographic style embraces the candid capture of emotions and the little moments in life that can't be replicated elsewhere. We were thoroughly impressed with Jonathan's handle on light, and his unique ability to use the environment to frame an image. Where other photographers might rely on poses or props, none of Jonathan's images employ these because he is a master at working with the elements that surround him. After our wedding, everyone was hands down amazed at the astounding quality of the countless exchanges, emotion and movements on the dancefloor he memorialized. Jonathan is not only an expert photographer but is one of the nicest people we have had the pleasure of meeting!

  Jonathan was an amazing photographer. He completely listened to what my husband and I wanted out of our photos and we were completely thrilled with the results. It was amazing what Jonathan captures - from the beginning of the day, of the girls getting ready, to the end of the night, when everyone was definitely letting loose. I would recommend Jonathan to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

  I cannot put into words how much I love these photos and I’m so happy that everything worked out and that you could be our photographer on the most special day of our lives. These shots truly capture so much emotion and happiness and you were always in the right spot at the right time.
  
  Everyone has commented how great our photographer was and how he always seemed to be in the right place at the right time, it’s like you anticipated everything and caught so many beautiful moments and memories. I never thought I would get so many compliments on our photographer and with you, we keep getting more, which is a great surprise.
  
  You’re professionalism and eye for movement and emotion is seriously amazing and a true testament that you are not just a photographer but a photojournalist, becuase I know throughout our pictures we will have not just pictures of an amazing event in our lives but a story, which is what I truly wanted. I cannot rave enough about you and what you’ve captured! I wanted to let you know how wonderful everything turned out and how you were such an important part of it all. Not only are the pictures amazing, but working with you and your flexibility was so appreciated. I’m so thankful that everything worked out the way it did. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

  Jonathan is a fantastic photographer, I cannot believe the quality of pictures we got- they are art. He is so responsive, professional and personal. He is also among the best priced photographers we met with. Jonathan Moore Photography was among the best decisions we made for our wedding.

  Jonathan is just great! He's very responsible and responsive to your needs. He understands that your wedding is the most important day in your life and puts so much love and care into his work. He's also very creative too. I wouldn't change Any thing about our pictures if I went back in time.

  I love Jonathan! He is professional, talented and hardworking. Not to mention his photography is BEAUTIFUL! True works of art! We had an outdoor wedding under trees and the lighting was really "spotty". All the photographs our friends and family took had weird lighting so I was nervous to see how our professional photographs turned out. They were AMAZING! Jonathan was able to capture a perfect, beautifully filtered, glowing day, with no spotting or muddiness, I was so impressed! I recommend him without any reservation! He is wonderful!

  Jonathan was an amazing photographer and the perfect fit for us on our wedding day. He was so relaxed and easy going that we were instantly put at ease during our sessions. In fact, we practically forgot that he was there during our wedding. Jonathan showed great flexibility and was open to any ideas that we had and you can tell that he genuinely loves what he does. And, of course, his work is amazing! We had such a hard time trying to narrow down the pictures to order because we wanted them all! My recommendations are to book him soon before word gets out!

  I wanted to thank you again for the amazing job you did photographing our wedding. The photos came out better than I could ever imagine! It was a pleasure having you at the wedding. You made everyone feel comfortable, as if a life long friend was casually taking pictures. NOTHING like the rude and invasive photographers I’ve experienced at other weddings. How you managed to capture all the key moments of our fast paced ceremony from so many great angles is mind boggling! Anyone reading this who is wondering if they should hire Jonathan needs to stop wondering and hire him QUICK before someone else books him for your date!

  Jonathan was great! He has some amazing photography skills. We got beautiful, artistic pictures from the wedding. He really knew how to capture the emotion of the day. For example, we have some hilarious shots of my husband showing off his dancing moves. They're great! Jonathan has a very "hands off" approach to photography - a photojournalism type style. So if you have a specific pose you want or really want pictures with certain people, write ideas down ahead of time because Jonathan doesn't give tons of directions. Overall, we were very happy with his work.
