Absolutely Wonderful!

Justine is amazing! When we were looking at photographers for our wedding she was our top pick. When we did our engagement photos with her we realized we had made the absolute right choice. Justine was supportive and helpful during a very difficult time when we had to postpone and reschedule our wedding. She worked with me on many alternative plans as we got up to the day. Then the day our wedding was perfect, just everything I hoped for and more. She captured all the shots I asked for. She got the biggest smiles from my niece. She has a way of photographing so that I didn't even realize she was there. Also her use of light is incredible. It is what first drew me to her photos. Since we were getting married on the beach the light was so important to me. I wanted that perfect soft magic hour look and she delivered. She got so many special moments that I didn't even realize. She captured the most magical moments for us. I cannot thank her enough.

Review is for pre-wedding communication

We cannot wait to shoot our engagement and wedding photos with Justine! She is kind, funny, and has a gorgeous photojournalistic eye toward capturing the humor and warmth between couples, friends, and families. Unlike so much trendy wedding photography, we didn't see any gloomy-in-the-name-of-art photos in her portfolio -- we saw authentic, in the moment love and laughter bursting from her photos.

We LOVED working with Justine for our engagement and wedding photos. One of the things that initially drew me in was how comfortable people seemed and how everyone looked like they were having so much fun in their photos! She captured all of those moments for us in the most perfect way and I would highly recommend her to everyone!

This review is long overdue, but not because of any lack of enthusiasm for Justine's fantastic work! My husband and I got both our engagement photos and wedding photos done by Justine and they were amazing! She was incredibly accommodating and professional. She came all the way out to New York City to take our engagement photos and the images were stunning. She put us both at ease and the process was seamless and quick. When she came to shoot our wedding in Maine, her excitement and positivity when she and her assistant arrived were infectious and we loved having her around. She took gorgeous candid shots and plenty of family portraits that we requested. Our venue was kind of in the middle of nowhere but she found a lovely spot for everyone to take their pictures. I am so glad that I preserved these memories using Justine's talent. I look forward to working with her in the future!

We had the great fortune (and pleasure!) of re-hiring Justine for our wedding this past month. Justine had previously photographed my sister's wedding and I had truly fallen in love with her work... so much so that we factored her availability into selecting our wedding date!

While Justine is an artist, she does not let her "vision" impede in a couple's needs/wants and builds her photography around the photos (and type of photos) most important to the couple. We felt completely at ease with our list of desired photos and let Justine take over the rest! She is incredibly easy to work with and has a wealth of knowledge for "novice couples" (like the two of us) ---we were so grateful to have her with us on our special day!

Loved using Justine! She came all the way to Connecticut for our wedding. She did a great job and made me feel really at ease. I don't generally like having my picture taken but she made me feel so comfortable. She was so easy to get a hold of and was so responsive to the type of images we wanted.

If you are looking for an amazing wedding photographer, you've found her! My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Justine for both our engagement photos and our wedding day and we couldn't be happier with our decision! Justine conducted herself with such professionalism and poise and kept us on track during a very busy day. Most importantly though, we had such a BLAST with her! She had us laughing from start to finish and because of that, the photos are a true representation of us on the happiest day of our lives. Justine, I can't thank you enough for the beautiful photographs. We will treasure them for years to come. I am already looking for excuses to book another photo shoot with you!

I can't say enough good things about Justine! I found her online and I just loved her style! The thing that struck me the most is how HAPPY and COMFORTABLE people look in her pictures. My (now) husband and I are not the kind of people who love taking pictures or consider ourselves very photogenic- and that is exactly why we were drawn to Justine. I knew she would bring it out in us!!! Right away I knew she was chill, informative and competently non-judgmental! She was always on top of communicating with us and was full of information that was helpful to us. She is extremely approachable, flexible and professional. On our wedding day she and her assistant were totally on point. I loved the way our engagement pictures came out and our wedding teasers came out. I can't wait to see the full album of pictures from the wedding. I can't recommend her enough and I wish I lived closer because I would have her photograph my entire life if I could!!! LOVE HER!

Justine photographed my brother's wedding two years ago, and the photos were absolutely stunning. Having seen the work of other photographers compared to hers, it was clear to me that I absolutely needed to book her to do my wedding. As soon as I got engaged, she was the first vendor we contacted.
Justine was an absolute pleasure to work with. She did a great job helping us first-time wedding planners out by recommending package options and timing to fit our needs and budget. Not only was she very professional and extremely attentive on the day itself, she was someone I think my husband and I would really like to hang out with.
When she put some of our teasers up online just a few short days after the wedding, it reminded me exactly why I was so determined to hire her. She is more than just someone to take pictures of things happening and people you like on your wedding day. She is an artist - passionate about her work, and extremely talented. I highly recommend her!

Justine was fantastic!

Both my husband and I are not very comfortable in front of a camera but Justine worked some magic. Our Wedding photos are AMAZING!
She was able to capture some great moments and no even knew she was there. The open air photo booth was also fantastic, I totally recommend adding that to any wedding package you choose.

Justine recently photographed some of my gowns for my Etsy shop. She was professional, fun, and we finished hours before we planned to! Even seeing unedited shots on her camera proved to me that I was working with a really talented photographer who possesses a keen eye and a wonderful personality. Hire this woman if you want wonderful, professional photos and a really fun experience all at once! I definitely plan to work with her again in the future!
