    Captures by Justine is AMAZING!

    Justine's work is incredible! Her photography business came highly recommended by at least three of my friends who book sessions with her regularly. Weddings, friend photo shoots, engagement photos, family photos: all of her pictures are always so beautiful.

    Justine met with my husband and I before the wedding to ensure she knew exactly what we were looking for. She asked important questions and made sure that she tailored her work specifically for us. During the wedding, she checked in with me to see if I needed anything. Afterward, she kept in touch with us about timeline and even sent us a preview!

    The final package was breathtaking. Justine delivered our digital photos in a beautiful, customized box with our wedding date engraved on it. It included several print outs and some super fun Polaroids. The photos captured our beautiful fall day with lush colors and perfect poses. I'm smiling just thinking about them!!! I am so grateful to have these gorgeous photos which I look at and admire every day.

    What are you waiting for??? Book Captures by Justine now!

    An absolute dream

    I have know Justine for years, and was so excited to book her for our engagement and wedding photos. As soon as we booked her, I knew it was going to be an incredible and stress free part of our big day. She is organized and made planning a breeze. On top of that, she is so much fun and easy to work with! She made us both feel so comfortable.

    All of the pictures are so dreamy, and really captured our wedding night perfectly. Every time I look at them, I feel so lucky to have had such a wonderful and talented photographer.

    I cannot recommend Justine enough!! 💖

    Nothing short of AMAZING!

    Justine was absolutely amazing. Communication throughout the whole process was amazing. I have a disability and had some questions and things we had to decide on the fly and Justine couldn’t have been more understanding or flexible! If you are looking for a photographer you can’t go wrong with Justine and Michael.

    Could not be happier!

    Captures by Justine was AMAZING to work with. Justine and her husband captured our day so beautifully and were so awesome at hyping us up and getting us ready for photos. They were extremely organized and made family photos a breeze. I also received the most beautiful keepsake with some of our wedding photos from Justine after our wedding and I will cherish it forever. If Justine is available for your day, book her asap!! Truly the best experience we had on our day.

    WOW thank you so so so so much for this beautiful review. It really means the world to us. Your wedding was absolutely MAGICAL and we loved capturing it SO SO SO MUCH.

    Stupendous, sensational, captivating!

    We have known Justine as an existing client couple for a few years now, and have been previously photographed by her. Justine is always one upping herself each session, from various poses, to different lighting techniques utilized to get the best photos possible for our wedding day. We were married in a courthouse building mainly covered in glass windows, producing excellent lighting. Justine, and her co-photographer husband Michael, work so well together and really know how to maintain multiple bodies for large group photos. Everything we requested was met and even more! We have never looked SO amazing, and could not be more grateful to have found such a lovely gifted human, who we gladly now call friend! All future photography needs will only be fulfilled through “Captures by Justine”! Couldn’t recommend a better photographer 12/10!!!

    Captures by Justine: Totally Amazing

    Justine and Michael are the dream team-- they made us feel relaxed throughout the whole day. We love having both the professional and instant photos to share with guests. Their attention to detail and warm vibe made for a marvelous experience!

    Justine captured our day perfectly

    There was no question when I got engaged who was doing my wedding pictures! Justine makes you feel comfortable as you are shooting and has captured some of our most favorite moments. I love the pops of color and even edited you get the real picture. I am so thankful she traveled to shoot our wedding and would def recommend to anyone looking for a photographer for any event! I hope to have her capture more celebrations 🤍

    Awesome Engagement Photos

    We loved the engagement photos Justine took for us! She is so easy to work with and fun to be around. We were nervous about taking professional photos together for the first time but they all came out so natural and beautiful. Highly recommend- I can’t wait to book our wedding!

    Justine is the best!!

    We hired Justine for our 09/03/2022 wedding and we could not be any happier with her responsiveness and professionalism. She was so polite with our family and friends no matter how busy and stressful the day went and I am so excited to see our photos! She did a fantastic job with our engagement shoot and she is so fun to take photos with. She kept it calm, cool and collected and didn't miss capturing any of our wedding details. You will not regret choosing Justine!

    Summer Wedding

    Justine and her husband Michael were fantastic to work with for our wedding! They were extremely organized and responsive to all our questions. We were lucky enough to also have Justine available for our engagement photos and they turned out beautifully! She has a great eye for details and color, and is always trying to find new elements to make the shots more interesting. We had a very vibrant and eclectic wedding with a large group and the pictures all turned out fabulous! Justine and Michael are both very thoughtful and kind when it comes to getting wedding party and family shots, and made sure everyone was comfortable and looked their best. We couldn't recommend Justine enough, she is an extremely talented woman and our wedding wouldn't have been the same without her!

    Captures by Justine's reply:

    Thank you both SO SO MUCH for this amazing review. We loved your day so much, every detail was so thoughtful and fun and we really loved your wedding party!

    Best Decision of our Day!

    Hiring Captures by Justine to capture our wedding was the best decision we could have made! After looking at various photographers, Justine's aesthetic nailed down exactly what we were looking for. Once we had our initial consultation, I just knew she was going to be the perfect addition to our wedding day! Justine was responsive and helped ensure that we didn't forget any of our photography needs on our day. As someone who doesn't normally take pictures, Justine made me and my husband feel so comfortable in front of the camera. To top it off, we received polaroids at the end of the night so we had some photos to go home with. Once our full gallery was complete, Justine went above and beyond by sending us a customized box and USB, with some extra treats inside. I would definitely hire her again and again!

    Oh my goodness, your wedding and the location is one we will never forget. All of the animals, the horses, the amazing food. SUCH A PERFECT DAY. And we are so happy we could join.

    Beautiful photos and calming presence

    My husband and I used Justine and Michael for our wedding at the American Visionary Arts Museum in April 2022. We initially hired Captures by Justine in 2019 prior to the pandemic. Justine was flexible, caring, and communicative throughout the whole process of rescheduling. On the actual wedding day, my husband and I were both pretty overwhelmed as our wedding was big and the weekend was jam-packed. Justine and Michael brought a sense of calm and a sense of humor; it felt like they were just two more friends sharing the day with us and definitely helped put us at ease. The photos themselves came out great; we look good, but the photos are very genuine and natural, not posed or staged. I am not particularly photogenic and get very insecure around a camera, and Justine worked magic to get great shots. I enthusiastically recommend Captures by Justine for a wedding day or any other photo occasion.

    Dreamy Photos. Amazing Human.

    We knew we needed someone we could vibe with for our very small, very queer commitment ceremony. From the getgo, Justine was exactly that person. She's organized, she's talented, she's caring, and she's an incredible listener. She also helped us think about things we hadn't even considered for the event. Day of, she felt like family. We got all the shots we wanted, and our guests still talk about how she felt like more than a hired photographer—she felt like a friend with a camera. We love our pictures. We love our memories. We love Justine!

    Really captures people and events-- highly recommend!

    Justine was extremely easy to work with and made wedding photography very relaxed and comfortable for my husband and me-- especially important during COVID times!
    Justine was very organized and good at responding. Most importantly, her pictures were incredible! It was important for us to capture the personality and vibe of the the wedding guests. I feel like she did that perfectly and we will cherish the pictures forever.

    Justine exceeded my expectations and was a true professional throughout. I loved that she has a Polaroid option where she switched to using an instant Polaroid camera at times and then we were able to give the polaroids to guests as the giveaway item.
    Several of our guests commented on how much they liked Justine. You can tell she really loves what she does and she truthfully felt like one of our guests. She's worth every penny and I'm an extremely frugal person!

    very kind and very talented- definitely want to hire Captures by Justine!

    Justine recently photographed our April wedding. From the start of my wedding planning to weeks after the event, Justine remained professional, prompt and friendly in all of her interactions with me :) When you are a busy/stressed bride this is exactly the type of positive energy you want around you. In addition to her wonderful personality, our engagement photos and wedding photos turned out beautiful!! They were absolutely perfect and we were very happy with the finished product. Justine's husband also works the events with her and this was so beneficial, as she was able to capture 'getting ready' moments in the bridal suite, while he captured 'getting ready' moments in the grooms suite. We felt like every special moment was truly captured and we are so grateful to be able to look back and see all our precious memories in photograph form. We highly recommend!!

    Amazing, amazing, amazing!!! Seriously book her NOW!

    Finding Justine as our photographer for our wedding was the BEST thing that happened to us the entire wedding process. (Michael is the perfect bonus too!!!) Finding a photographer who was truly inclusive to the LGBTQ+ community for my wife and myself was unfortunately harder than you would think, and when we found Justine we knew pretty much instantly that she was it! She was so helpful during the entire planning process and helped with some timeline stuff for the day of as well. Covid ruined a lot of things on our wedding day and Justine and Michael made sure that we had everything we needed to be as happy as possible all day long (which honestly is above and beyond for a photographer!!!). I could literally write a book about our positive experience with her (and him) but I’m going to leave it at just BOOK HER NOW. Plus the value of what you get from her for the price is divine.

    Perfect Wedding Photographer!

    Justine was the perfect photographer for my husband and I! We were looking for someone within our price range that had the right aesthetic for our wedding. We thought Justine was the perfect fit, and it turns out, she was!

    She was very easy to communicate with and very prompt to respond to our questions. She asked us questions to address things we would have never thought of. In other words, she is experienced and knows how to ease any concerns or stress a couple may have.

    I absolutely love all the photos we got from Justine! She got us our preview shots within two days and ALL of our photos in two weeks. My friend who got married months before still does not have her photos. Justine also took a variety of polaroids to give to us, which was a lovely touch.

    Overall, from beginning, day of, and after the wedding, Justine has been amazing.

    We LOVED working with you two. Thank you for getting us out to Florida. We love being in our hometown

    Justine is amazing!

    Justine was amazing to work with. We value the quality of her work, her professionalism and just how easy it was to work with her. She’s very good at communicating with us so the process was easy. And at our wedding day, she made us feel so comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. We love our photos and everyone who’ve seen it loved it as well! She did an amazing job and we couldn’t have picked a better photographer to capture our day! As a bonus, her pricing is great!

    Simply the Best

    Justine is an amazing photographer and a great person. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease during both our engagement shoot and our wedding day. She has a documentary style of photography, so she really captures your essence on film! She also gives you a set of polaroids after each session so you have something tangible to take home with you, which, as a 90's kid, I loved so much! Justine's prices are also extremely fair and she doesn't rip you off or make you feel like you have to spend your life savings to afford her services. She is worth every penny and more!

    Wonderful, Flexible, and Responsive

    My wife and I loved working with Justine. She captured great moments and made us feel so comfortable during our wedding day. I think it's worth mentioning that it was nothing like we'd originally planned due to COVID. As our plans changed, Justine worked with us to shift our package and make sure it made sense for our much smaller ceremony.

    Professional, Fun & Friendly !

    I have had the pleasure of working with Justine throughout the past few years for different events. She took photos for our engagement, 10 year anniversary, and wedding. I found her on Instagram originally and loved the quality of her work. Upon contacting her, she was so sweet and made me feel so comfortable with her during our first zoom call. Before our first photoshoot, my husband and I were so worried about feeling uncomfortable taking photos but that instantly changed once we started our session with Justine. She felt like someone we've known for decades and she instantly made us feel at ease. From our first experience, we knew that we wanted to continue to work with her . We recently had our wedding in August and once again she crushed it and blew us away when saw the photos. She captured every moment, even the unexpected ones. Her professionalism is unmatched with her arriving on time consistently, working well with all our guests and vendors, while being warm and friendly. I highly recommend her and it is great to know that we have a photographer that we can call on for all our future life events!
