The BEST there is!!!!

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Justin!!!

Justin was both our engagement photographer and our wedding photographer, and from the very beginning, he was everything we could have hoped for and more. He is unbelievably talented, but just as importantly, he is one of the most positive, joyful, and genuinely wonderful people you could ever have around you on your wedding day.

Justin is an absolute ray of sunshine!!! Wedding days can be busy, emotional, and a little chaotic, and having someone with Justin’s energy by your side makes all the difference. He brings so much warmth, calm, humor, and happiness into every room he walks into. He somehow makes everyone feel comfortable, relaxed, and excited to be photographed.

One of the things we loved most about Justin is how incredible he is with guests. It is so important to have a photographer who interacts with people in a positive and fun way, and Justin does that perfectly! So many of our family and friends came up to us during and after the wedding to tell us how wonderful he was, how much they loved him, and how much fun they had being photographed by him. He has the best quips, the best energy, and the most joyful presence!!!

And of course, the photos are absolutely stunning. Justin captured our engagement and wedding day so beautifully — the big moments, the little moments, the candid laughs, the happy tears, and all the details we never want to forget. Looking through our gallery felt like getting to relive the entire day all over again.

By the end of everything, Justin was not just our photographer — he truly became our friend. We feel so lucky that he was part of such an important season of our lives, and we are beyond grateful for the memories he captured for us.

He is the absolute best, and we could not recommend him more highly!

A Perfect Experience!

We hired Justin to photograph our elopement and honestly could not have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, he was warm, kind, and incredibly generous with his time and energy. He showed up prepared with a list of shots he wanted to make sure we got, which we really appreciated — you could tell he’d actually thought about our day ahead of time.

What stood out most was how comfortable he made us (and our two young children) feel. Elopements can have some awkward moments, but Justin was so encouraging and easygoing that it never felt forced. He rolled with things as they came up and made the whole day feel relaxed instead of stressful.

He also got us a set of highlights back incredibly fast, which was such a treat while we waited for the rest. And when the full gallery arrived, it exceeded our expectations. The posed shots have the exact quirky quality to them that we wanted, while still feeling personal and true to us.

We can’t recommend Justin enough, and we’d jump at the chance to work with him again.

The BEST wedding photographer.

Justin is AMAZING! Not only does he produce beautiful photographs, he goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feels comfortable. I highly recommend him for your event.

The BEST photographer

Justin is a wonder. We had the most amazing experience with him for our wedding in May 2026, and engagement photos in October 2025. He made us feel so comfortable and the photos (from both sessions) are absolutely stunning. He was so efficient getting through formal wedding portraits, and so helpful at random parts of the day (he helped bustle my dress!!), and knew exactly which places and lighting and times of day would make for the most magical photos. On top of how thrilled we were with him, we've had a few wedding guests call out how much they loved him too!

Best photographer out there!

Justin will provide you with magical photos (in abundance) beyond your wildest dreams and quite likely will be come your new best friend. Justin captured our engagement shoot in 2025 and wedding in 2026 and we couldn’t be happier. He will fix your hair, tell you exactly how to stand and where to put your hands, and will probably be simultaneously cracking a joke! Justin balances professionalism and relaxed familiarity perfectly, and he has an incredible eye. We are so so happy with our photos!

Amazing Photographer to work with!

Justin was amazing to work with and my wife and I had a great time at our wedding with him as our photographer. He went above and beyond what we requested of him and always made it easy for us to pose and take pictures throughout our wedding while getting a few laughs out of us and our guests as well. We would highly recommend him to anybody looking for a photographer whether it be for a wedding or not.

Best Photographer!

Choosing Justin as our wedding photographer was truly one of the best decisions we made for our big day. He arrived early and immediately put us at ease with his easygoing and friendly attitude.

Justin was incredibly efficient throughout the event—he captured all of the moments we requested plus so many more we hadn’t even thought of. Not only did he make sure to photograph us as a couple, but he also paid close attention to our guests, ensuring everyone was included in the memories. The sheer number of photos and the variety of angles he provided honestly made it seem like there were two photographers working instead of just one.

We were blown away by how quickly Justin delivered our photos. Within just four days of our wedding, he sent us a stunning first look gallery of 300 photos.

Justin was by far the best vendor we worked with—extremely responsive and attentive to detail. We can’t thank him enough for his hard work and the beautiful photographs we’ll cherish forever. If you’re looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond, look no further than Justin!

Justin went above and beyond with our engagement photos they are absolutely stunning! Neither of us had ever done a professional shoot like this before, and he instantly made us feel comfortable and confident. His kindness, professionalism, and eye for detail truly sets him apart! We’re so grateful to have had him capture this special moment and I would highly recommend him to all!! Seriously the best!

Justin is the best!!

I am not exaggerating when I say that working with Justin was one of the highlights of our wedding. From our initial meeting to sending our final photos (incredibly fast!), working with Justin truly felt like we were working with a friend. We had never taken professional photos together and didn't know what to expect, but he made us feel informed, comfortable, and excited to try something new. Justin also has an innate ability to make taking photos fun. We received so many compliments from our guests about how much they enjoyed having him at our wedding. And the photos speak for themselves; they are simply stunning. Every time we look at them, we're able to not only remember how much fun we had at our wedding, but actually feel the joy from that day once more. We are so grateful to have found Justin and could not recommend working with him more!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
