You Won't Find Anyone Better!
WOW. Vinluan Photography is a DREAM. They are so much more than a fantastic photographer team - you are receiving some pure and joyful spirits and friends. But also, the photos are STUNNING. A few highlights of working with Jennifer and Jake:
- First, book them ASAP because you will not find a better quality for this deal. These two are professionals and their quality reflects that. All my friends, family, and literally friends of friends that saw our photos commented on how gorgeous they are! They're beautiful - strong colors, but not over contrasted. Light and refreshing, but not washed out. They're truly timeless images, not a "trendy" edit.
- Jennifer made us feel so comfortable and our photos looked so natural. She taught us a few tricks on how to pose to make the photos better, but it never felt or looked unnatural. We were able to act and be ourselves and the photography captures that - I felt like a model!
- We got our photos back FAST. Both our engagement and wedding albums! The blog was posted in a week or so, and we received our entire wedding album less than 2 weeks after our wedding. You may think you're okay waiting, but when you're on a post-wedding high you want them back ASAP! I cannot thank Vinluan Photography for how much work they put in to get them back so quickly. I know other brides that wait 2-4 months!
- Logistics: There are some logistics about booking a photographer that you don't think about that Vinluan Photography does to really make them stand out. First, the return rate is fast (see above). Second, they send you the entire album and let you print, download, post as you wish. I always give credit to Vinluan, but it's nice to not have big logos on every photo and to download as I wish. Third, I filled out a questionnaire about what photos I wanted, groups, etc and they were excellent about ensuring I got all my "must have" shots. These are some details that some overlook, but not Vinluan.
- They take such a true and genuine interest in all their clients to get to know them personally. This makes shooting with them a lot more fun and personalized. I told everyone that after one engagement session and communication with Vinluan for a year between engagement and wedding, I truly felt like they were friends. It made my wedding day so much fun and I was so comfortable knowing that they had my best interest in heart and weren't focused on what they wanted, but what I wanted.
- Your wedding photographer needs to do your engagement photos. It should be a rule. It allowed us to learn what it's like working with Vinluan Photography, allowed them to learn us, and made our wedding day so smooth.
- TWO PHOTOGRAPHERS. My husband and the guys LOVED Jake - and Jake learned everyone's names so quickly (and we had a LOT of men in our party!) Jennifer was fabulous with us ladies, laughing and giggling with us. We were able to maximize our time on our day by having two photographers, and they were able to capture photos that you just cannot do with one photographer.
- If you can't tell, I truly love Vinluan Photography. On our consultation call with Jennifer, we knew within 5 minutes that this was the team for us. I am so picky about photographers and cannot believe that a team like this exists. I promise you - you will NOT regret booking with Vinluan Photography. They're the best photographers and people you could want!
PS - I loved them so much, that my brother is getting married and hired WOW. Vinluan Photography is a DREAM.

Everything we dreamed of and more!
Jennifer and Jake are genuinely amazing people and they are so talented at what they do. Jennifer’s attention to detail is everything you want! They are so patient and take the time to pose the photos in the best way possible. Jennifer did our engagement photos as well. And they turned out just as wonderful as our wedding photos. I 100% recommend them. We are so thankful they were a part of our great day and gave us the best photos as memories to our day!

Gorgeous photos!
Jen and Jake were an amazing choice for our wedding. We were looking for photographers that had a great combination of affordability and talent. They were the perfect find! Jennifer is so passionate about what she does and she brings so much enthusiasm to every step of the process. From our initial phone call, I knew that they would put in the work to make sure we had gorgeous photos to remember our wedding day. The photos are excellent! They captured every moment of the day so beautifully. We have received so many compliments on the quality of the photos. They look so natural (not over-edited like some wedding photography)! The day of the wedding, they arrived early and ready to get started. The groomsmen LOVED working with Jake. He really wrangled in the large group well. Jennifer was so calm and made the photos for the bride's side easy and relaxed. We are so happy with our choice in photographers!
