An Amazing Photographer!

Jennifer’s photos beautifully captured our wedding day, and we are thrilled to have hired her for our event! One of the things that my husband doesn’t enjoy is having his photo taken. However, on our wedding day Jennifer (and her assistant) made the experience very enjoyable and painless. In fact, she made two people who don’t feel they’re photogenic look really good!

Before the wedding: Jennifer was professional from day one. We contacted her and immediately got a response. She asked about our budget, what we wanted out of the photo shoot, and the time frame. The quote, and what it entailed, were clearly outlined.

Day of the wedding: Jennifer and her assistant were prompt and ready to go. She made us feel comfortable in front of the lens. Jennifer and her assistant both had a wonderful and artistic eye for poses, settings, and composition! They both also caught many priceless moments that were natural and unscripted. Photo shoots of the wedding party and with family were seamless.

After the wedding: Jennifer had the pictures ready for us to view and download within a timely manner. The images were easy to access and download, and she followed up to ensure that her service was to our satisfaction.

We highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a wonderful experience! Whether you’re camera-shy or love to be in front of the lens, Jennifer is the photographer for you!

Jen was our photographer for our wedding this October, and we couldn't be more thrilled with her work! When researching photographers, all of the pictures (by other photographers) started running together and looking the same, and it became very confusing. I thought "why am I recreating the wheel?? I should reach out to friends and get recommendations from others that have already done this" and put the word out on Facebook. There were many enthusiastic recommendations, but when I saw Jen's photos (which really stood out from the rest) and unique editorial style, I knew I had to book her. My husband didn't even want to book a photographer and somehow thought drunken friends with iPhones could get the job done on this momentous day (he was being cheap, I admit it.) After we received the photos and he finished looking through all of them, he messaged me "man, our photographer killed it, huh?!" Yes, yes she did. She was extremely professional, friendly and personable, on time, and made us comfortable enough to basically forget that we were being photographed during the reception. Also, both our wedding and our reception had some challenging lighting situations, and the photos still came out beautiful. Look no further, book her today! :)

It is with enthusiasm that I recommend Jen Dery. I can speak from the perspective as a client who has been on the other end of Jen's lens, as well as a reputable wedding planner who trusted Jen with my clients. I took great care in choosing vendors to refer to my clients, and would only make these referrals if I had absolute confidence in them. Jen gave me that confidence--I always knew that she would deliver!

​Jennifer is such an amazing photographer! She photographed our engagement photos and our wedding in September and she got so many awesome pictures and they're so much better than we could have ever imagined!! Going through the photos of our wedding day is like getting to relive the whole day all over again. She had a great way of capturing all the fun little moments that happened throughout the wedding. She is very professional and was great to work with through the whole process.

One of the best bits of advice I received before my wedding was to not skimp on the photographer and I could not agree more! Jen did a terrific job and our photos are fantastic!

She was amazing! I am not photogenic or natural in front of the camera, but she totally put me at ease and took beautiful pictures.

My husband knows a lot of photographers and we knew that photography was something that was a high priority for our wedding. We (and a close photographer friend of ours) really liked Jen's portfolio, and after meeting with her in person I felt she was the best fit for us in terms of photography quality, value, and photographic style. Jen is super chill which worked for us, but I don't know that that's a good fit for everybody. I didn't find any of the photography options we were considering affordable, but I'm glad we didn't skimp on the photography. The pictures are beautiful and we'll definitely be treasuring them for years to come. Her assistant was great, too!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
