Book them!

Jenni-Kate and Bryan are the best to work with and they are truly talented. My now husband and I were referred to them by another couple and they did our engagement shoot and our wedding photos. I never had to say much they just did their thing and I look at the photos and just ....WOW!!! If you want to feel at ease and have these beautiful masterpieces created for you by these two talented people read no further and book them! They knew how to have fun while still maintaining professionalism. Couldn't have been happier choosing them as our photographers. THANKS SO MUCH!!

The best!!!

I can't begin to rave enough about Jenni-Kate and Bryan. We hired them for our engagement and wedding photos and instantly fell in love with them as a couple. They made sure everything was fun and not so awkward and created the absolute most beautiful photos for us. Everyone at our wedding talked about how much they loved them as well, they are the best to work with. If you are even thinking about hiring them for your events, don't and just do it! You will not be disappointed!!

Highly Recommend!

I can not recommend Raven and the Willow enough! Jenni-Kate and Bryan are an incredible team--they made our day feel fun, memorable and easy. Our wedding was pushed back due to COVID, and Jenni-Kate and Bryan were very flexible and responsive throughout the process. They made the trip to look at our venue beforehand and were always in communication.
They put a great deal of thought and effort into their work, and we are so happy with the end product!

Stop looking and book them! They are amazing!

Super fun and relatable. If you are not comfortable in front of a camera, these two will brainwash you and make you have the best time of your life while making long-lasting memories.

Best photographers in the game!

If we could give them 10 stars we would! Bryan and Jenni-Kate are two of the most fun and relatable people we have ever met. They really take the time to get to know you in a way that makes every shoot feel like you're just spending the day with two of your best friends! This is super helpful when you're not 100% comfortable in front of the camera, because they help your love shine through the photographs so effortlessly. We have received constant praise over our engagement and wedding pictures, and also had so many of our guests come up to us to let us know how fun both of them were! We truly can't recommend them enough, picking them as your photographers/videographers will be one of the best choices you make for your special day.

Dynamic Duo on Your Wedding Day

Bryan and Jenni-Kate made us feel so comfortable for our big day and captured all the moments that we would have forgotten if it weren't for them! Their candid style was just what we wanted - real emotion and organic. They don't do not the stagey cheesey photos that you usually see with wedding photos. They are all about getting to know you as a couple and making you feel like they are close friends taking snaps of your day and not just another wedding vendor. We were so happy with our photos and it was one of our best decisions ever!

Choose them!

Raven and the Willow is a husband/wife team (no, Raven and Willow are not their names), who have created a world of photography that truly captures the vibe of your day. From punk to barnyard to swank, they seamlessly adapt and deliver the best memories (with incredible lighting) possible. They are also awesome people who bring an ease and joy to the awkwardness of having your photo taken. I recommend the package that includes the engagement shoot, as it gives everyone involved time to feel each other out and establish a solid relationship. Also, then you have couple photos that aren't just in your wedding garb.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

they gave us memories to last a lifetime and two friends for life as well

My husband Mark and I cannot be more happy with the work that Raven and the Willow did for us. From our first experience with them, in our engagement shoot, to the lead up to our wedding and on the actual day, Jenni and Bryan made us feel supported, understood, comfortable and safe to let them do their thing. I think trust is a huge part of choosing a photographer for the most important day of your life and as our friendship with Jenni and Bryan and grew and blossomed so did a very organic trust. We consider them to be great friends now (ps. guys we're due for a date night) and felt extreme comfort leaving our day in their hands. Now their work.... everything was beautiful and easy to access online. When we had questions they answered promptly. They caught every moment that we wanted them to catch, and more. They captured the mood of the day in their editing and talent for using natural lighting. And most importantly they lived in the same style that we live in. Nothing was 'posed' or cliche wedding. Everything was gorgeous and natural. We are so grateful to Raven and the Willow.

A picture is worth a thousand words... AND ITS TRUE!

Bryan and Jenni Kate were not just a vendor to us, they became our friends! They invested the time and energy to ensure they captured our wedding the way we wanted. They listened, they were patient and the most important thing was they were very responsive when we emailed them or called them. They were worth EVERY PENNY! We love them!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
