Perfect!!!

We were so thankful to have Jeff as our wedding photographer. My husband is a photographer himself, so his standard of who he wanted to shoot our wedding was high! Jeff was our first pick and did an incredible job! He is super talented, creative, professional, easy to talk to and work with,l and made us feel really comfortable. He is a pro at what he does and we absolutely love the memories he captured! We loved the mix of his creative shots and how he captured the precious moments that happen throughout the day.
Thanks so much, Jeff!!

UPDATE: I just wanted to update and reiterate my positive review now that I have received my photos. Though some on here seem to have complaints of waiting extended periods of time, I did not experience this. We received our photos within the 12 weeks agreed to in our contract (towards the end, but still within the agreed amount of time, and with NO prompting or reminders on my part). Our photos are beautiful and exactly what we were looking for. The posed photos are lovely but what really strikes me are the candid moments that Jeff captured. He managed to catch me, my wife (who is NOTORIOUSLY awkward in photos), and all our friends and family perfectly as ourselves. Posed photos are posed photos, but candids that truly capture people are hard to find and he BEYOND delivered. I've already received numerous compliments on the photos from friends, family, and some of my other vendors. Absolutely stand by my original 5 star review.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
Was actually very surprised to see negative reviews on here, as all of my experience with Jeff was overwhelmingly positive. I had no issues with communication with Jeff and his wife, in fact they were downright speedy compared to some other vendors I dealt with. As far as the actual photography goes Jeff went above and beyond to get some amazing shots, up to and including dunking himself and his camera into the pool at our venue! In addition he was just an awesome, friendly guy. We spent time when we weren't taking photos nerding out together about video games. Though I haven't seen all our photos yet (our wedding was only two weeks ago), the previews he's sent us have all been absolutely perfect. More than worth the money, and I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

In the wedding industry it is so important to find an appropriate fit. From style to personality, feeling comfortable with your vendors is a must. Jeff is an artist's photographer. He creates, inspires and pushes the standard norm. This was not only what we wanted for our images, but what we craved. Jeff made us feel so comfortable, and relaxed during both our engagement session and our wedding. He was very patient with us as our event evolved, even date and location was changed. He worked with us and responsive to our emails regarding each change. He also delivered our engagement images in a short time as well! We trusted his vision and let him do his art...best decision ever! This allowed us to enjoy our wedding, and feel incredibly present. He showed up to our wedding early and blended right in with our tight knit family in Big Sur. It was a small wedding...just nuclear family, and he was so personable, extremely professional and comfortable with everyone. He documented epic moments creatively and very tastefully. When we received our images they blew us away! I recommend this man for those that want something different, those that are looking for art to remember their day.
