If You're on the Fence, Book Her!

We are so happy! Jess made our day so perfect. From creating a day-of timeline to keep everyone on schedule to showing us exactly how to pose to get the perfect photos, we couldn't be happier. My friends and family loved working with her; she is hilarious and made everyone feel so comfortable and not weird in front of the camera. Even more, we are in love with our photos. We joking asked, "Who are those people?" because we've never looked so good. They are more stunning than I ever could have dreamed. A bride came up to me at her own wedding and said, "I wish I would have chosen your photographer!" We are so pleased we went with Vita Bella and if you're even thinking of booking her, do it! This is such a special day; you want to look back on your photos and be happy with them.

Timeless and perfect photos

Jess is an expert in her field. From the first time we shot with her during our engagement shoot, her direction and guidance was on point. She quickly made us feel at ease and made the big day stress free. She knew exactly what shots we needed, without us having to stress about missing anything important. The image quality is perfection and so so timeless.

Engagement session

My fiancé and I had the honor of working with Jess for our engagement session and soon, our wedding! We had such a blast during it! Jess made us feel so comfortable and guided us the entire time on ways to move/pose to help capture our photos in a natural way! Our session lasted almost 3 hours but we were having such a blast that we didn’t even realize how late and dark it was outside.

I knew I wanted a more timeless, elegant and natural feel to our photos and Jess absolutely delivers on all of those points! We are so excited for her to capture our special day! Looking forward to September 2024! 🤍

VitaBella is THE BEST!!!

My husband and I had an amazing experience from start to finish with Jess of Vita Bella photography. She has a very keen and intelligent eye for photography and takes absolutely gorgeous photos that highlight natural features and colors (both in humans and nature.) Her signature touch makes these natural features richer and bolder in color and depth, which I ended up loving. She has great energy and made us feel really comfortable in front of the camera (it can be a bit awkward!) Her bubbly personality and silliness allowed us to feel relaxed during our engagement session and wedding day, which really translated on camera. She was also extremely organized, always checking in throughout the last year/very timely with photos being sent//answering any questions we had that I never had to worry about anything. On our actual wedding day, I barely noticed her and at times, forgot she was there. THAT is the sign of a great photographer. Our family and friends are raving about our photos and we're so excited to continue to look back at them for years to come. The entire process of working with her and her team was extremely seamless, and we're so grateful to have had the chance to work with her. Thank you, Jess, for everything!

Everything and More

We can’t overstate how wonderful Jess at Vita Bella Photography was throughout this wedding process! From the pre-planning, the style samples, the “rain consultation” (Buffalo weather am I right) - all leading up to an extraordinary day with her right by our side. She arrived early for our getting ready location for the girls, to make sure she captured each and every shot. Her assistant photographer Dorian was great with the guys location too! One thing that stood out is how efficient she was lining up the family for photos and getting through our extended family photo requests throughout the night, so that we had more time for our personal shots and enjoying our event. At one point, my husband’s boutonnière broke right before our first dance and Jess rushed in to replace it with one from another groomsmen, to make sure it ready for our dance photos! She also gathered my husband’s extended out of town family together for an impromptu photo shoot at the end of the night. Not only was she with us all day throughout this, but she stayed late to make sure we got the sparkler photos of our dreams. We can’t recommend her enough and the ways she helped us throughout the wedding night, on top of delivering amazing photos!

Absolutely amazing!

Jess from Vitabella was incredible! She made us feel comfortable and laid out everything we were going to do. She responded timely to all emails and was proactive in setting up calls to lay out the process. The pictures are beautiful, and I would recommend Vitabella to everyone!

Beyond my expectations

I booked Jessica on a whim, solely by looking at her instagram. I fell in love with her work instantly. She was so helpful with every step of the process. We had a phone conversation very early on where she asked what my 'vision' was for my wedding photos. I wanted classic, elegant, breathtaking. She executed and then some. Jessica is a consummate professional. She knew every pose and angle to make me feel beautiful on my wedding day. She was a hype woman. The depth and quality of her photos is incredible. I haven't even gotten my whole wedding album back and I already know I'm going to love it based on the sneak peaks. They are the most beautiful pictures ever. Worth every penny and then some.
