I can't say enough about Jared and Lauren. They are the most fun easy going people and at the same very professional. GIven the prices in the area, they are a great deal (they give you 8 hrs of service instead of the standard 6 with an engagement shoot included.) Overall, the made us feel very comfortable on our wedding day, and knew how to capture every shot they needed flawlessly. Love them and love their editorial style!

Lauren and Jared were spectacular! From beginning to end they were extremely organized and professional, but relaxed and fun to be around. Our engagement pictures and wedding pictures are stunning and we couldn't be more happy!

JL Photographers are fantastic! They did my sister's wedding and when I saw her pictures I knew I wanted to hire them for my wedding too! I am so very happy that I did! Our pictures are all beautiful and we got them so quickly after the wedding it was fantastic to not have to wait for months and months like other wedding photographers! They are very professional and help you to relax and set you up in natural positions for great non-cheesy pictures. They are very quick to respond to emails which is so appreciated when in the middle of wedding planning. You definitely get what you pay for. I also love that they are a married couple team. Jared and Lauren are great, fun people you would want at your wedding anyway! I highly recommend their services.

Lauren and Jerod are amazing! Hands down the best photographers in the business. They did our engagement and wedding photos. Both are creative, professional, respectful, fun and extremely timely! All my friends waited to get their wedding photos for decades, and we already had ours in our hands ready to send out to family and friends. We received so many compliments on the photos too.

Not only did the pictures turn out amazing, but they add so many personal touches along the way (washi tape on fun packaging, custom designed cards, bride and groom's guide to the wedding day). They captured absolutely every single moment, even ones I don't remember! And, I have no clue how they did this, but they printed out a photo of our first kiss at our ceremony and it was in a frame at our seats during the reception. That little gift is hanging up in our house now.

I highly recommend J-L photographers to everyone I meet and to anyone reading this review!

Lauren and Jerod did an amazing job photographing our wedding! They were a ton of fun to work with and had us smiling (real smiles) all day. Both Lauren and Jerod were dedicated to getting the perfect shot, even if it meant offroading it through the vineyard and lying in the dirt to get the perfect angle. :) Everyone who has seen our pictures says they are the most beautiful and unique wedding pictures they have ever seen and we couldn't agree more!

I can’t say enough great things about Lauren and Jared! They made our wedding photography experience so enjoyable! Because they have great personalities, it was easy to feel comfortable in front of them- and the camera. My husband and I were awkward about the engagement photos (it was both our first time in front of a professional photographer). But Jared and Lauren are so easy-going (yet professional) we actually had lots of fun! We’re laughing in like ½ our pictures…I love it! I love the wedding pictures, and was very happy with the end result. I’d highly recommend them for both their photo quality and customer service.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
