10/10 recommend working with Jaci!

I’m SO glad that we hired Jaci to be our photographer for our wedding. I felt that she was 100% aligned with what I wanted for the photography: minimal posing/forced moments and lots of candids of all the love and fun times. We’ve only received our preview photos so far (we just got married a couple weeks ago) but I can already tell she killed it. I’m already so happy with what we have and have been looking at them nonstop!

On the day Jaci was a delight to work with and so much fun. Her and her assistant were so friendly and nice, really putting me at ease while I was freaking out. I am NOT comfortable in front of a camera but somehow in the pictures I look totally natural. They were also very much on the dance floor during the reception getting in the mix and getting those incredible pictures of people partying and celebrating that we hoped for. I remember a couple times spotting them out of the corner of my eye and just thinking “I know these are gonna be good” and they very much are! At brunch the morning after many people were remarking about how much fun the photographers were. Just good vibes and great photos all around, I would definitely recommend working with Jaci!

Best decision

We 1000000% recommend Jaci for any of your photography needs! She took our engagement photos and shot our wedding last weekend and she is an absolute DREAM to work with. Her confidence, poise, warmth and positivity helped us stay calm and have fun during the busy wedding day. We heard so many compliments from our loved ones who were also so impressed with her attitude and demeanor. And this is all before we saw the photos: her work is UNREAL. We are truly blown away- they are stunning, and capture the JOY and FUN and LOVE we experienced. I get emotional looking at just the sneak peek gallery because it so beautifully memorializes what it felt like on that day, and now we can share it with our grandparents who couldn't make the journey, and ourselves for decades to come. HIRE JACI!!!

Best Choice You Can Make!

We found Jaci through friends of ours that used her for their wedding photography after loving the photos that they posted and we could not be happier with using her ourselves! We had the chance to do our engagement shoot with Jaci ahead of our wedding and loved working with her right away - she made us feel so comfortable and we had so much fun which was a great way to get to know her ahead of our actual wedding day! On our wedding, Jaci helped plan our schedule and was an absolute pleasure to work with for both myself and my husband, but also for our family and wedding party who all loved working with her and her assistant, Dana. Jaci made sure to get all of the shots we wanted and utilized our entire venue (Red Maple Vineyard) to its fullest. Everyone loved her and she did an amazing job being present without being intrusive in any way and most importantly, she got us an incredible sneak peek less than 24-hours after our wedding and we could not be any happier with the photos. She completely nailed our personality and the magic of our special day and we cannot wait to see the rest of the album when it's ready - we will treasure our pictures from Jaci forever.

Jaci is the BEST!!

Jaci was INCREDIBLE. We found her on Zola and fell in love with her work. From start to finish she was easy to communicate with, understood our vision, and was very personable. We didn't want any pictures that were too posed or awkward, which I knew was going to be hard because I am so awkward in photos, but somehow we look amazing in every single one. We are going to treasure these photos forever and I am so thankful that we chose Jaci to be our photographer.

Amazingly captured special moments

We can't give Jaci enough accolades for the photography she did for our engagement and wedding. We LOVE her style which captures moments. We received lots of compliments on our wedding photos that she really captured the feel and mood of the room. She was also super professional and easy to work with. I especially appreciated that she was tracking the particular posed pictures I had requested and made sure we had those done. Also, many of our guests commented that Jaci was everywhere taking pictures and that she was laughing and smiling enjoying the day with us.

And an added bonus was that Jaci was a wealth of knowledge with respect to wedding details. And when I discovered the 80 year old necklace I was planning to wear was broken as I was getting dressed Jaci jumped in to fix it with floral wire. She's absolutely the best!!

The wedding was a blur for us and Jaci's pictures truly encapsulated the day and let us relive it! Our one regret is that we didn't also hire her to capture memories of our Friday night event too!

Jaci was great

Jaci was so great! She was responsive and easy to work with. She really got what we wanted in terms of vibe and was very chill overall. We thought her prices were very reasonable and liked her flexibility in terms of package. And best of all the photos turned out great! We would recommend her to anyone.

There aren't enough compliments in the universe!

I don't even know where to begin... We feel beyond fortunate to have had the chance to work with Jaci for our elopement photos. She was so patient with us (even though we were a hot mess on our wedding day), so professional, but also so down to earth and a truly wonderful human being. She went above and beyond, helped the day go off without a hitch, and provided the most wonderful experience. We couldn't say enough good things - there aren't enough compliments in the universe! I am so thankful for everything she did for us on our big day and for all of her hard work. These are just a couple of my favorites from our sneak peek. Our photos are stunning pieces of art that I cannot wait to cherish for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Jaci!

Jaci is such an amazing photographer. She really listened and delivered on exactly what I wanted. We are 2 days of being married and we already received a sneak preview of pictures. She’s extremely talented and makes everything smooth sailing! I cannot recommend her enough!

Highly Recommend!

Jaci has a really great go-with-the-flow vibe and an eye for great shots and natural moments. Jaci was very discreet during our ceremony and right there for the fun during our reception. Jaci's style and color palette really speak to us -- we already got back some images for our "sneak peak" and we're excited to get the rest!

Jaci is the BEST!

We don’t have enough wonderful things to say about Jaci. Jaci was one of the first vendors we booked for our wedding and I am so happy we did. Seriously cannot recommend her enough. Jaci did our engagement photos, my boudoir photos, and our wedding photos — the pictures are absolutely perfect, and we had a great experience every time and felt comfortable despite both of us not really loving being in front of the camera.

We asked Jaci for lots of natural shots rather than too “stagey” and she killed it. She captured so many loving, candid, and FUN moments between each other and our families/friends, and the editing is 10/10. It was over 90° for both our engagement photos AND wedding (the A/C broke), and we somehow don’t look like disgusting hot messes in our photos.

Jaci is an amazing person with awesome personality, we loved getting to know her and can’t wait to work with her again in the future!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
