Great Experience with The Tenneys!

Jake and Anna were fantastic to work with. They were incredibly accommodating, even when we made last-minute changes, and handled everything with professionalism. At the same time, they made the entire experience enjoyable and relaxed. I would highly recommend Team Tenney!

Worth every penny!

Jake and Anna are fantastic! We wanted a photographer with a dreamy and romantic aesthetic, and they seemed to be the best in the area that fit that description. We were right! We are so blown away every time we review our gallery. They took the time to get as many family photos as possible, and got a lot of candid shots while we were getting ready, laughing together, and on the dance floor. Their attention to detail is great, and they know exactly how to pose you if you're awkward in front of the camera.

Amazing Wedding Photographers!

The Tenneys were the best wedding photographers we could have asked for! Jake and Anna guided us through different poses and location choices and did a great job making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. The Tenneys also were so great at catching all of the little moments and details from our wedding day and had a wonderful vision for our photos. Their photo editing created the most special and beautiful photos that we will cherish forever. We cannot recommend The Tenneys enough!

Best Vendor We Chose!

Choosing Sweetlife Photography for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! From the very first moment we met Jake at our engagement shoot, we felt completely at ease. He has such a natural ability to make you feel comfortable, confident, and at ease in front of the camera. We sent over some inspo photos for the shoot, and Jake executed our ideas perfectly—he is truly gifted!

On our wedding day, having both Jake and Anna with us was an absolute dream. They were with us for every special moment, capturing each one seamlessly without ever making us feel like we had to pause or pose in awkward ways. They blended into the day, capturing candid moments that we’ll cherish forever. It was such a relaxed and enjoyable experience, and we couldn’t be happier with the results.

The photos really are breathtaking, and we’ve already had so many compliments from family and friends. We feel incredibly lucky to have had Sweetlife Photography document our wedding. If you’re looking for talented photographers who make you feel relaxed, understood, and truly capture the magic of your day, look no further than Jake and Anna!

Great company!

Jake was so helpful and kind on our wedding day. He worked extremely hard to make sure we got all the photos we needed and was great to work with. His ability to think on his feet is what sets them apart! He never settles for less and is always trying to maximize each and every photo to the fullest!

Fantastic!

Jake and Anna did a phenomenal job with our wedding and engagement photos. From our first meeting, I knew we could trust them with our special day and that they'd capture every important moment--and they did! We've received so many compliments on our beautiful photos. They also go above and beyond: For example, when I started getting sunburned during photos, Anna went and found me sunscreen. Also, it was so nice on the day of to just enjoy taking photos with friends and family and not worrying if they were going to turn out.
We just did what Jake and Anna said and it all turned out amazing! Cannot recommend them enough. Stunning photos and so easy to work with. Thank you, Jake and Anna!

A Perfect Team!

Jake and Anna are an absolute dream team, and they were everything we hoped for and more from our wedding photographers! They were so communicative, responsive, and accommodating at every stage of the process. Plus, they are the kindest people - we always felt so valued as clients and could tell they really cared about us and our wedding day. On our wedding day, they really helped us balance getting all of the photos we wanted while ensuring we could maximize our time celebrating together and with our guests. Jake and Anna were so perceptive and attentive to us, our families, and friends throughout the entire wedding day. They effortlessly kept our day on schedule while simultaneously ensuring organic, special moments unfolded naturally. We do not take for granted how critical this was to making our day feel so perfect, we are so grateful!

Of course, you just have to look at Sweetlife's portfolio to see their absolutely stunning, high quality film and digital photography. Our beautiful wedding photos and engagement photos are exactly what we envisioned and we are so happy with how everything turned out. We absolutely love our gallery, which perfectly captured all of the love, emotions, and fun of our magical wedding day. We really can't thank Jake and Anna enough for everything!

Best vendor we hired!

As soon as we saw Sweetlife’s portfolio on their website we knew we had to have them as our wedding photographer. During our initial meet and greet call we felt the effort, thoughtfulness, and professionalism that they would bring to every interaction going forward. On the day of our wedding Jake and Anna brought a peaceful and comforting energy, which was much needed on such a highly anticipated day. The quality of each photo is impressive, I think our favorite photo is every single one! We couldn't be happier with how our photos turned out. The entire process was organized and seamless, we enjoyed working with Jake and Anna and highly recommend them.

Anna & Jake are great!

Sweetlife photographed our September wedding and were so wonderful! They took the extra time to scope out the best lighting on property and hand picked locations for our first look and family photos. We loved how every photo came out and it felt like Sweetlife really took the care and time to capture our big day perfectly. They were great!

Jake and Anna are amazing, and bring professionalism and artistry to every event they shoot here at the vineyard. I love working with them, and the photographs are always amazing!

Ginger and You Events Ginger and You Events Wedding Planners

Jake & Anna are a killer team that everyone should hire. Not only are they one of the sweetest couples I know, they are incredibly talented and offer something that is rare: They are a package deal! Most photographers come with a second shooter - which is great solution to needing another set of eyes with a camera in hand! But with Jake & Anna, you get two professionals that work amazingly well together, have immeasurable experience with each other and are so easy to work with. I have had the pleasure of doing projects with them and they set my heart at ease every time because their work is truly more than you could ever hope for. They shoot film & digital - their film reels are always to die for! I am not kidding when I say they are my favorite husband and wife photography team, they are worth every penny.
