About

JAO Photography is a wedding photographer located in Murfreesboro, Tennessee who provides services in the greater Nashville area and beyond. Owner Japhet believes his role on your wedding day is to tell your love story artistically and creatively through his lens. He will document all of the emotions, craziness, and the precious fleeting moments you’ll want to look back on for years to come. Japhet strives to make you comfortable in front of the camera and hopes to make it feel more like hanging out with a friend who is a photographer rather than a traditional photoshoot. JAO Photography believes that your journey together should start the moment you book with him, not on your wedding day. Japhet is always more than willing to offer support throughout your wedding planning process and hopes to build a relationship with you and your partner.

Services Offered

JAO Photography uses a natural, photojournalistic approach while shooting your wedding day but also takes time to get the more traditional and formal photos as well.

The Perfect Wedding Photographer

We recently had the pleasure of working with Japhet Odigie as our wedding photographer for our magical day on March 23, 2023, and we cannot express enough gratitude for his exceptional service. From the first meeting to the final delivery of our wedding photos, Japhet proved to be a consummate professional who exceeded our expectations.

Japhet's professionalism was evident from the start. He arrived promptly and well-prepared, ensuring that every aspect of our wedding day was captured beautifully. This reliability added a layer of comfort and confidence to our day, allowing us to focus on the joy of the moment while trusting Japhet to capture it all. His friendly and approachable demeanor instantly put us at ease, creating a comfortable atmosphere that allowed us to be ourselves in front of the camera.

One of Japhet's standout qualities was his keen attention to detail. He took the time to understand our vision and preferences, capturing every significant moment with precision and artistry. His ability to listen and adapt to our needs made the process seamless and enjoyable.

Throughout the day, Japhet demonstrated a perfect balance of being unobtrusive yet always present. He seamlessly blended into the background during candid moments, capturing our guests' genuine emotions while taking charge when it was time for group shots. His clear and concise instructions made the group photos efficient and enjoyable for everyone involved.

The quality of Japhet's work speaks for itself. The photos we receive are not just images; they are timeless memories that perfectly encapsulate the essence of our wedding day. Each photograph's composition, lighting, and attention to detail showcase Japhet's skill and passion for his craft.

One delightful surprise was that we received our photos faster than expected! Japhet's efficiency in processing and delivering the final images showcased his commitment to providing a seamless and timely experience. The speed at which we received our stunning photos only added to the overall satisfaction of working with him.

We wholeheartedly recommend Japhet to couples seeking a wedding photographer who goes above and beyond. His professionalism, friendliness, attention to detail, and ability to truly listen make him the ideal choice for capturing the most critical moments of your special day.

Thank you, Japhet, for preserving our memories in such a beautiful and heartfelt way! We love you, and we'll see you at the Maternity Shoot!!

Outstanding!

Japhet, you're by far one of the most talented - most creative - professionals in the photography industry. My fiancé and I are appreciative of your kindness, and how easy you made things for us. We went from being nervous prior to the shoot, to extremely comfortable throughout the session. Considering how busy you're with other clients, you were timely and effective with meeting our requests. We are so grateful, for your quality of work, and professionalism.
