    Jia is the best!

    If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would.

    From the very beginning, Jia went above and beyond anything we could have imagined. Not only incredibly talented, but also someone who truly cares — about every detail, every moment, and every emotion behind the day.

    They made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera (which is not an easy task!), guided us when needed, and somehow managed to capture the most genuine, beautiful, and emotional moments without ever feeling intrusive.

    Looking through our photos feels like reliving the entire day — the laughter, the happy tears, the little in-between moments we didn’t even realize were happening. Every image tells a story, and every story feels so us.

    Professional, kind, patient, creative… truly everything you could ever want in a wedding photographer.

    Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. If you’re even thinking about it — just book. Trust me.

    Forever grateful 🤍

    Best Wedding Photographer ever!

    Jia at FRAME YOUR LOVE PHOTOGRAPHY was incredible to work with for our wedding day. Quick communication! He is detailed, knowledgeable, fun, and incredibly talented. Jia kept our timeline running smoothly and made us feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera, and we are both awkward people! This was my second time working with Jia, as he was the photographer for my best friend's wedding as well, and he continues to exceed all expectations. He captured all the best moments of our special day, and was engaging with our guests throughout the night. Jia is a downright AWESOME and cool person! I would recommend FRAME YOUR LOVE PHOTOGRAPHY to anyone in a heartbeat - the photos are going to be absolutely breathtaking and worth every penny we spent.

    More than we could have asked for

    Jia was amazing from beginning to end! We spoke on the phone to get to know each other and based off his portfolio, reviews, expertise, and value for his work, we knew we found a winner.

    We familiarized ourselves with Jia during our engagement shoot and it came out amazing! From the results of our engagement, we couldn't wait to see what he'd capture on our wedding day! Jia was very knowledgeable and had a good idea of timing and angles to get the best shot possible. He is very flexible and considerate.

    On our wedding day, Jia went above and beyond to capture the best shots and even added to the fun atmosphere! He truly in a gem and the moments he captures are to be treasured! We are being grateful to have been able to work with Jia and strongly encourage those who want quality moments captured to work with Jia!

    Jia made our wedding dreams a reality!

    Welcoming Jia into our wedding journey was nothing short of a delight, and we find ourselves struggling to adequately convey just how extraordinary he made our entire experience. His bilingual mastery in Mandarin and English became a priceless gem, especially in bridging the communication gap with my husband's family, who are more comfortable in Mandarin. Jia's seamless direction and warm communication in Mandarin added an extra layer of joy to the entire photography process, making it an enjoyable affair for everyone involved.

    Right from the start, Jia exceeded every expectation. His early arrival ensured he caught every fleeting moment flawlessly. The first look and family photos he captured were nothing short of dreamy, setting the magical tone for the entire day. Jia's keen eye for detail and artistic vision translated into snapshots that not only captured but genuinely embraced the essence of our special day.

    What truly set Jia apart was his dedication to understanding and embracing the richness of our diverse backgrounds. Before the wedding, he took the time to answer our questions about Chinese culture and wedding etiquette, offering insights that added a deeply personal touch to our ceremony. In less than two days, he crafted a detailed timeline that ensured the seamless flow of events, reflecting his commitment to making our day uniquely ours.

    During the reception, Jia effortlessly transitioned from capturing formal moments to candid shots, revealing his versatility as a photographer. His friendly demeanor made him a cherished addition to our team, and his attentive care towards our guests, particularly my husband's family, left an indelible mark.

    Jia's commitment to excellence stretched far beyond the wedding day. His swift delivery of over 800 photos allowed us to relive those cherished memories as soon as we returned from our honeymoon. His artful editing and design choices showcased his keen artistic eye, turning our wedding album into a visual masterpiece reminiscent of a captivating K-drama.

    Our engagement photos were equally enchanting, solidifying our conviction that Jia was the perfect custodian of our special day. Right from our initial phone call, it was evident that Jia was more than just a photographer; he was a genuine artist with a keen interest in understanding our vision. His proactive approach, including scouting the location and selecting the perfect backdrop for our shoot, made us feel not just comfortable but truly seen and understood.

    In conclusion, Jia is not merely a photographer; he is our heartfelt wedding maestro. His dedication, professionalism, and the beautiful memories he etched through his lens have left an indelible mark on our hearts. We wholeheartedly recommend Jia to anyone seeking a photographer who not only delivers exceptional results but also infuses a deeply personal and thoughtful touch into every aspect of the experience. Without a shadow of a doubt, we would enthusiastically recommend Jia in a heartbeat to anyone embarking on their own journey of love and celebration.

    Excellent service!

    Jia was an absolute pleasure to work with from the very beginning. He came highly recommended to us from a friend whose pictures turned out amazing. He was extremely friendly and fun to work with. He prepared us for how our photos were going to go, and was receptive to feedback we had about photo edits. The pictures turned out absolutely amazing, and it was emotional to relive the moments when seeing the photos for the first time. Absolutely fantastic and would highly recommend his services! Hopefully we can work with him again in the future.

    An Absolute LEGEND!!

    5 stars is simply not enough to express our gratitude for Jia! Our wedding would not have been the same without him. From the getting ready, to the ceremony, to tearing it up on the dance floor, Jia was there to capture all of the most special moments (which is no easy feat at a 300 person event!!). His energy and enthusiasm was infectious and everyone has been gushing about him ever since. If you are looking for someone who will keep everyone laughing and having a great time all night long, Jia is your guy!

    Jia is a creative pro!

    Working with Jia was a pleasure from start to finish. In the initial intro call, he was attentive and thorough, quickly understanding the vibe of what we were going for and making us feel at ease by having us practice some posing even over Zoom. The engagement shoot turned out great, and Jia's dedication was apparent as he arrived early to scout the place out. Our favorite part was how creative everything was - he was willing to try a lot of things to capture some unique moments. At the actual wedding, everything went smoothly and Jia was able to efficiently capture the wedding party photos before our ceremony, so that we could enjoy our cocktail hour and reception. The photos turned out great, and we couldn't have asked for a better value for such a professional service.

    Could not have dreamed of a better experience!

    Simply amazing! Jia is hands down the best out there! My wife Jenna and I started with Jia for our
    engagement shoot and he was spectacular! Super easy to work with, very thorough, organized, and knows his stuff. Not only does he take beautiful, timeless classic photos (the ones your parents will absolutely want) but he also has some of the best creative/artistic photos as well. He also made a timeline for us on our wedding day so we knew exactly what was going down when. He got in all of the pictures that my mother in law wanted in addition to everything else he knew he
    should capture for us on our special day. You will
    absolutely not be disappointed with Frame Your Love! Oh, and he's a menace on the dance floor! Insane energy to keep up with whatever crowd you have at your wedding. Dude is a riot.

    Absolutely Amazing Photographer!!

    We were lucky to have Jia photograph our wedding day last month. He is such a talented photographer! He is so professional, nice, and made us and our guests feel so comfortable. We just received our edited photos back. They are beautiful and it felt like we were reliving the day all over again. We had him for 10 hours that day and he did not stop! He captured every beautiful moment and the best action shots on the dance floor! I only have great things to say about him and anyone would be lucky to have him photograph their day.

    Incredible work!

    Jia’s work is authentic, personalized, and truly beautiful!! All of our photos came out stunning! Jia is professional and on top of every single detail- both logistically through out the planning process and on the day of our wedding. Jia brought incredible energy and positivity while taking our wedding portraits AND on the dance floor during the reception! Friends and family couldn’t stop raving about how fun and kind he was! And he got the action shots to back it up! We are so truly grateful to have found Jia by chance and I will continue to recommend him to everyone I know! Thank you Jia!!

    Best photographer ever!

    I don’t even have words to describe Jia and how amazing he is. I spent a long time looking for the perfect photographer for our wedding. When I found Jia, and we talked to him for the first time, I knew that he was it. His photos are above and beyond what I expect every time we’ve gotten photos done by him! He is truly an artist and takes some of the most unique and beautiful photos I’ve ever seen. He is so much fun to work with and does an amazing job really bring out the personality of his subjects in all his photos. He has captured some truly breathtaking photos for us and we cherish every photo he’s given us! He was incredibly accommodating and helpful when we had to postpone due to COVID and we are so thankful we were able to book him for the new date! We even had him take photos at our tiny ceremony on our original date. We plan on hiring him for every life event he is willing to photograph for us in the future! Our bridal party and wedding guests still talk about how much fun he was and how much energy he had on the dance floor. He really puts his all into every event he photographs and I recommend him wholeheartedly for any couple for any occasion!

    Hands down the best wedding photographer I've ever seen!

    Having Jia photograph our wedding west the best decision we ever made. He had everything so organized and everyone was commenting on how much they enjoyed him. He was so good at capturing the perfect moment, getting people to dance, and making us feel taken care of and special. On top of that, his photos are TO DIE FOR! Do not look any further -- this is the photographer you want if you are looking for a one of a kind experience.

    Couldn't Be Better

    My husband and I decided to hire Jia after we saw the engagement photos he took for our best friends Alexa and Matt more than two years ago, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! When we saw our engagement photos, we were blown away but it was nothing compared to the pictures we've already received from our October 2020 wedding. Jia was so helpful during our long engagement and most importantly flexible, understanding, and safe when our wedding details changed due to Covid-19. What makes Jia's photos so incredible is his keen eye and great timing. He's somehow always captures the beautiful candid moments like the laughs in in-between moments when you didn't know anyone was looking, the tear welling up when you can't contain your joy, and the wow of that one person who is killing it on the dance floor (except for when Jia is killing it on the dance floor getting the party going and still capturing everyone else). Stop searching and hire Frame Your Love!

    Perfect day during a tough year

    2020 has been quite a year and as with most couples, we have had to postpone our wedding multiple times. Long story short, we got married in our living room on our original date and then did wedding photos on what was to be our second date since the new date is still tbd sometime next year and we didn’t want to miss photos with Jia. Jia has been so understanding and flexible to accommodate us with all the changes and unknowns. He has always been accessible and worked with us to ensure he could be part of our day. Leading up to the photos we discussed the timeline and photo ideas we wanted to do. Jia put in a lot of work to prep for the getting ready photos, first look, fun photos with props and sunset photos and had so many ideas. On the day of, he showed up early and ready to go. We love Jia’s energy and how we got to know each other leading up to this day so we felt super comfortable and we looked natural and not “staged”. He is very creative, has an eye for catching the perfect photo at just the right time and gets great spontaneous photos along the way. When we got a sneak peek we could not believe the photos. Even better than expected, artistic, colorful and captures movement and perfect little moments. They are so unique and different from any I have seen. Overall, Jia was amazing to work with and made this tough year a little bit better with stunning wedding photos we can cherish forever. The day was fun, special, and much more than we expected. Highly recommend! Now to choose a favorite photo to frame which is becoming very challenging the more photos we are seeing :) Cheers Jia!

    Jia is the best

    - Honestly there are not enough words to describe how amazing Jia is as a person and a photographer. We met Jia and my cousins wedding in 2018 and just talking to him and watching the way he works you can see how much he loves his job we had to book him right away. We had our engagement photos and wedding photos both done by Jia. Our engagement session was amazing and you really get to know Jia and he gets to know about you we literally went for a walk took pictures and many laughs at the end of it it was like saying goodbye to a long time friend and that’s what he wanted a photographer who is professional but also personable who makes you feel comfortable. Jia is defiantly not your average photographer he gets right on the dance floor with everyone and jumps and dances with you while taking amazing photos. I still have no idea how they come out so perfect but they do. If you are looking for a Great photographer you should pick Frame Your Love our special day wouldn’t be as amazing as it was with out him.
    - Sincerely Ryan and Kristi O’Sullivan

    You will not regret booking frameyourlovephotography!

    Every special event needs a photographer like Jia! He's actually a two for one because in addition to catching precious moments, he is also a fantastic addition to your party! He has so much energy and his spirit is unmatched. Jia was definitely a factor in amping up my guests. If you're looking for cookie cutter photos, maybe find a different photographer. Jia specializes in catching the candid moments that you will be forever grateful to have rather than a staged group shot with forced smiles. Countless guests had commented after the wedding about what a great photographer we had because he was essentially part of the party. He is also more artistic than your standard wedding photographer. I knew when I followed my wedding venue on Instagram, many of the pictures tagged of the venue were of the same shot from different photographers and I didn't want that. I wanted pictures that capture the emotions and personalities of the people in the frame. I had originally drafted this review prior to receiving all the photos. I have just received all of the pictures and I truly feel like I'm reliving the entire day, even all the parts I didn't get to see the day of. The pictures are filled with raw emotion that you can feel. You won't regret booking frameyourlove.

    The Absolute Best!!

    I would give Frame Your Love Photography 100 stars. Our families are still talking about what a blast he was and what a phenomenal job he did with our wedding!

He is extremely organized, reliable, creative, and detail oriented; he captured so many special moments that we will cherish forever. He was our best vendor BY FAR! Jia went above and beyond for us and spoiled us with his dance moves! We are so happy with our abundance of gorgeous photos and we already can’t wait to renew our vows just to use Frame Your Love Photography again!

    Professional, fun, and efficient

    Jia was amazing! He was so on top of every detail- timing, location, and of course the pictures. They came out beautiful, romantic, and he captured all the beauty of the day. His personality was so sweet and polite. We had a small, intimate ceremony and he made everyone feel relaxed and comfortable. We had so much fun with him!

    In love with our photos!!

    Jia was amazing to work with from the very beginning. He was bubbly, easy-going, and accommodating, and took the time to really understand the kind of couple we are and how we wanted to capture our special day. On our wedding day, Jia was a blast! He treated the entire wedding party and our families as if we were all old friends and did a great job making sure we had fun while getting all the group shots we wanted. He was also really helpful and flexible during the pre-ceremony hours that felt like a total whirlwind. During the reception, he was out on the dance floor and got THE BEST shots of everyone dancing (he even busted out some moves of his own). Everyone loved him!

    My husband and I were at a restaurant when I got Jia’s photos in my email. As soon as we started looking through them we laughed and cried so much we had to put my phone away because we were making a scene. Jia captured exactly what we knew he would: love, excitement, warmth, and most important to us - fun! His photos truly allowed us to relive and remember how amazing our wedding day was, and I am 100,000% in love with them all! Jia is a super talented photographer and a truly delightful person - I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!

    Amazing! So Glad We Booked Him!

    We loved working with Jia! He was the first vendor we booked and we knew right away we made the right choice. The three of us definitely clicked during our engagement photo session and after seeing those photos I was 100% confident that he would capture our special day with perfection... and he did! We just got the wedding photos back a couple of days ago and, I must say, I am obsessed! Admittedly, I am not a very "bridey" kind of bride and I didn't have any visions of my wedding day or what kind of photos I wanted. Jia coached us through everything, helped us with a timeline & photo ideas, arrived early and stayed late. He made sure to capture every special moment with his keen eye. Looking through the photos elicit so many reactions; laughter, heartfelt emotion, joy. He was very stealthy and unobtrusive during the ceremony and the life of the party on the dancefloor which is where he captured the best dancing candids I’ve ever seen!
    After the wedding is over, all you have are the memories. It is so important to choose a photographer who has the talent to allow you to relieve that special day each time you flip through the photos. Jia not only has the talent, he has a great spirit and personality. He will go above and beyond to make your photos perfect.

    Highly highly recommend!

    Hiring Jia at Frame Your Love was one of the best decisions I made throughout my wedding planning process. He was so incredibly helpful before and especially the day of. He even went above and beyond and stayed a little later to catch some of the epic (I really do mean epic) dance moves happening out on the dance floor. His pictures came out absolutely PERFECTLY! We had a combination of posed photos and live action photos - so we have both spontaneous moments and posed pictures with our family & friends which is exactly what we wanted. I literally can't say enough good things about Jia! Go hire him!

    Jia was THE. BEST!!!

    Jia is phenomenal. He arrived on time in our Mid-Hudson valley venue/getting ready location and was right to work. However, he didn't put off a "just strictly business" vibe, he was fun, relaxed and super personable. We had a really hot/humid day which caused thunder & rain, but Jia continued to showcase positive energy and vibes. Our favorite highlights were how quick he was in capturing our special day but also how great of a dancer he was! (You must invite him to dance).

    After our wedding, he delivered our beautiful sneak peeks and complete album on time and W.O.W... the photos were beautiful and beyond what I'd imagined. You would never guess we were super sweaty in the humidity because he captured all the best moments.

    Best Photographer Ever

    I've known I wanted Jia as my photographer even before we got engaged. He's grown into such a talented and creative photographer and we were grateful to have him capture our special day. He is easily our favorite of the vendors we hired. He is timely, professional, and easy to get in touch with. We hired him for our engagement shoot as well and the photos turned out great. Our photos were taken at a park by the Hudson River where there was also a skateboard park nearby. He approached one of the skateboarders and asked if he could do some tricks in the background while we were in the front. It was definitely an awesome and unique photo! Our wedding was at the Garrison, also overlooking the river and he took amazing photos of the scenery that the Hudson had to offer. We are not very photogenic people but he made us feel comfortable and carefree. Everyone loved him at our wedding and he was very friendly and accommodating because we had to take photos at each guest table. He blended in like one of our old friends and even threw in some sick dance moves! We recommend him to everyone who has gotten engaged or is getting married. Thank you Jia for capturing the memories we'll have forever, and we can't wait to Frame our Love on our walls =)

    Mother of the bride

    Jia Yao of Frame Your Love Photography ( he’s on FB, based in NY?) was the professional photographer for Louise and Brian’s wedding. I can’t recommend him highly enough, both as a photographer and a human being. An artist with a curious, open mind and an eye to match, he was able to capture beautiful photos of two people who love each other but hate being photographed! As the mother of the bride, who considers herself an artist yet admits to being “directive” when it comes to photo taking, he took my “suggestions” very patiently. I wanted to have another day just to follow him around and point out neat ideas for photos, I’m sure all of which he had noticed already!
    Hire this man for all of your professional photography needs!

    Wonderful wedding experience (and we usually hate wedding photos!)

    Frame Your Love was the perfect wedding photographer! Jia made sure to listen to what we wanted and actually make it happen! He was more than graceful when dealing with frustrating family members and kept a great energy the entire day. Definitely recommend him and his unique and beautiful take on wedding photos that is both timeless and modern!

    Absolutely amazing!

    My husband and I did not know what exactly we were looking for when it came to wedding photographers. All we knew is that we were looking for something unique. We stumbled upon Frame Your Love Photography on the Knot.com. We were both blown away with the photos. We met Jia in person at a coffee shop and we left knowing that he was the perfect photographer for us! Jia made our engagement shoot fun and easy. He gave us very helpful direction and his sense of humor helped my husband and I quickly loosen up. We were in awe when we saw the finished pictures. They were artistic and beautiful, but most importantly they really captured who we are.

    On the day of the wedding Jia showed up and everyone in our bridal party loved him immediately. Jia’s personality was a joy to have around on the big day. We took amazing photos and even got an unbelievable shot where we are opening champagne that is everyone’s favorite! Jia captured the feeling of our wedding perfectly. He even started a limbo line that our guests loved and made for some hilarious pictures. My husband and I are so impressed with Jia as a photographer and as a true professional and felt that we really made the right choice with Frame your Love Photography. Our pictures are stunning and really represent who we are as a couple. We are so grateful to have these amazing pictures to help us remember a perfect day forever!

    Frame Your Love was the BEST

    I couldn’t recommend Jia more! He’s creative, talented, enthusiastic, reliable and personable. You can tell he loves what he does with every photo he takes. Our guests LOVED him and we received so many compliments! I wish I was getting married again so I could use him again!

    Amazing and stunning

    From our first phone call with Jia just over a year ago, we knew he was flexible, accommodating, organized and professional. We are so happy we chose to work with Jia and would recommend Frame Your Love Photography to anyone looking for a spectacular photographer in the future! Our engagement session was a great way to meet Jia and we were immediately comfortable working with him and loved his sense of humor. We are so in love and happy with all of the photos. The church pictures are stunning and the pictures from the reception captured all of the beautiful aspects of the reception as well as the entire atmosphere of the evening! The pictures of our friends and family dancing are amazing and will always remind us how special and fun the celebration was for everyone. We will cherish these photos as memories forever. We cannot thank Jia enough for all of his work and creativity, not to mention our guests absolutely loved him and without a doubt he added so much life and fun to the party. We would highly recommend Frame Your Love Photography to capture all the beautiful and candid moments of your wedding.

    Absolutely wonderful.

    We booked Jia for our November wedding, and it was one of the best and easiest decisions we made in the wedding planning process. He answered all of my emails promptly, and was super accommodating, and worked within my budget. From the first time we met him for our engagement shoot we knew we were in good hands. Jia did a FANTASTIC job at our wedding. People always rave about the food and the music, but I had people coming up to me all night raving about my photographer. He was so much fun, and so easy to work with; and that was apparent to everyone. A few weeks after my wedding my grandfather wasn't doing well, and we knew we wouldn't have much time left with him. I reached out to Jia and asked for the photos with my grandparents so I could make sure my grandfather could have them before he passed. Jia immediately sent me the photos. If you're looking for someone who sincerely cares about his clients, book with Jia. Our photos speak for themselves. Thank you so much, Jia!

    Beautiful photos

    Jia was the absolute best. He is dedicated to getting the perfect shot, and also gets right in with the crowd for candids. He was so much fun and does amazing work. He did a great job of using the scenery. I absolutely recommend him!

    AMAZING! We could not have been happier with Jia and Frame Your Love!! We booked him at the end of October and did our Engagement shoot the next week to capture fall in NYC - the pictures were incredible and so versatile - very few poses and everything looked so natural! Most importantly, I felt like we knew Jia for years! He made us so comfortable and calm - also key if you've never taken pictures like this before!! Fast forward to our wedding -I was super stressed b/c it was going to downpour - but we got our first look in right before the first drops and Jia was a pro to still capture beautiful pictures! He also worked with us to get outside pictures when we could and then the rain stopped and he captured the most stunning sunset! We have gotten so many compliments on them!! Also for Jia's matrix-like dance moves were impressive on the dance floor when he was taking pictures later at night!! He was a natural! I would hire Jia again 1000 times over. Thank you Jia!!!!

    Jia was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! He is affordable, professional, upbeat, and a ton of fun. He made our day feel seamless, even though it was almost 100 degrees outside at the end of July, literally! Jia was easy to get in touch with, punctual, and takes beautiful pictures. We started our experience with Jia with an engagement shoot, and our pictures were stunning! He is skilled in photography, and knows all the angles and lighting to make a great picture. Jia was so kind, and put us at such ease on our wedding day. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!

    Hiring Jia/Frame Your Love was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the start Jia was easy to reach, helpful and so great to work with during the planning and contracting process. His work really does speak for itself on his portfolio and I was impressed from the beginning with the creativity he puts into getting a shot.
    The day of the wedding he was instantly our friend and helped put us at ease. He did a fabulous job maneuvering between us and family during pre-wedding photos. I really wanted beautiful but energetic photos and he really knows how to get fabulous shots. He was on the dance floor/working the entire night and took so many amazing photos. Everyone from my family kept mentioning how nice and easy going he was, he wasn't pushy or in your way like other wedding photographers I have seen. We got a few teaser photos leading up to the whole album which was awesome to see and got us so excited for the final album. After seeing our photos we have so many great options we don't know where to start! We love all of the photos and the memories Jia captured so perfectly. We really are thrilled with the outcome and HIGHLY recommend hiring Frame Your Love for your big day.

    There are not enough words to express our gratitude to Jia at Frame Your Love Photography for capturing the happiest day of our lives!

    Within minutes of meeting Jia at our engagement session, we felt like he was an old friend. Neither my husband or I really consider ourselves to be photogenic people but with Jia's direction and expertise, we both felt confident and at ease that we were in good hands. Once we received these engagement pictures, there was no doubt in our minds that Jia was the right choice. Knowing we wanted to use these pictures for our save-the-dates, Jia sent us so many amazing pictures within a week and a half, it was very difficult to chose a favorite! We really appreciated his quick-turnaround and making us a priority. He also included several drone shots which was a huge bonus to my husband, an aspiring drone photographer himself!

    As we got closer to the actual wedding day, Jia was great with answering last-minute questions and confirming all details. The day of the wedding, he arrived with a huge smile on his face. His happy, positive, upbeat attitude helped settle my wedding-day nerves. He was incredibly patient getting each and every family shot requested. He even worked with our two dogs and got some incredible dog-family pictures we will treasure for many (dog) years to come!

    Jia created a slideshow as a preview to our final wedding album for our 1 month anniversary. The tears wept watching this slideshow were a clear indication of how amazing the final pictures would be. Once we received the pictures, we were absolutely blown away by how amazing they were. Jia truly captured each and every emotion we experienced that day. We feel like we can both re-live that magical day simply by looking through Jia's photos.

    We will never be able to fully thank Frame Your Love Photography for capturing these memories for us. Jia is truly talented, professional, and nothing short of brilliant!

    I am SO SO SO happy that my husband and I used Jia as our photographer for both our engagement shoot and wedding! We had spoken to so many photographers but felt that most took the same, boring staged photos you see everywhere. We wanted someone with fresh eyes, and especially someone who could take some gorgeous outdoor shots as we had an outdoor ceremony and reception. Jia was the PERFECT match. After our engagement shoot, I knew we were going to have some of the most beautiful photos. We received this incredible drone shot of us lying beneath cherry blossom trees - I swear it belongs in a magazine. It's apparent that Jia produces some gorgeous photos, but I think what my husband loved best was Jia himself! Seriously he is the nicest and most friendly guy ever. We didn't feel uncomfortable at all. He seriously can turn anyone into a model. 100% recommend him to anyone in need of a wedding photographer. We are still waiting on our pictures from our 6.23.18 wedding, but the few we've seen thus far have us so excited. Thank you, Jia, for being such an amazing part of our day!

    Frame Your Love Photography is incredible!!! We heard about them because the bride's sister used them for the photography at her wedding. We loved the work that we saw so much that we had to hire them for our wedding! To start, before the wedding there is constant communication to ensure that everything goes smoothly the day of. Jia and Diana are professionals and you can rely on them to act as such. They are very conscious of time management and making sure that before the wedding there is an outline of all of the photos that you want to be taken. The day of our wedding could not have gone any smoother. Due to their impeccable planning and coordination, all of the photos were taken in a timely manner and they worked within the scheduling of the wedding. Most importantly they made it FUN while we were taking the photos! I cannot stress how much of a good time that we had while taking our photos. Throughout the event even though they are right in the middle of things getting amazing photos, they do a great job at hiding in plain sight and letting the wedding flow just as planned. As far as the quality of the finished product, the photos are absolutely stunning. Everyone that we show them to loves them as well. Jia and Diana are true artists in every sense of the word. The shots that they are able to get are really unbelievable and they are amazing at working with the settings and lighting that are provided to them. The work is so good that every photo has such a unique feel to it and you can tell how much passion and hard work is put into every detail. We loved Frame Your Love Photography and cannot thank them enough for unforgettable wedding photos and more importantly we love Jia and Diana!

    Jia is fantastic and so willing to work with you! He is efficient and helps make you feel comfortable around him. He is very responsive and also gets the finished photos to you very promptly! He was able to capture so many moments at our wedding and did it all by himself! I could go on but Weddingwire gives limited space, for a much more detailed breakdown check the Knot for my full review (Alexa K Reviewed on 3/27/18)!

    Jia is a wonderful person and more important a patient photographer!! He photographed our engagement and our wedding. The final result was fantastic despite of having the coldest day in Jan’18. Looking at the 1000+ pictures was like living our special moment again. Every detail of our wedding was photographed perfectly. Thx a lot Jai!! Xoxo Esther & Adriel

    There are not enough stars for Jia! Our first experience with him goes back to May 2017, when he took our engagement pictures (included in our package). We got married at Mohonk Mountain House in New Paltz and decided to do our engagement session there to use it as a rehearsal for our big day. The pictures were just STUNNING and everybody, and I mean EVERYBODY complimented us on them. After that, we knew we would end up with beautiful wedding pictures. We got married in October and it was 75 degrees on that day. I was in a long-sleeve dress and the sun was beating on us at 1:00pm... but Jia just wouldn't stop taking pictures! He kept finding new locations and, in the end, I was the one who had to beg him to take a break because it was way too hot ;) He is so passionate about his job that he would have kept going all day long. In fact, after the wedding was over, he even asked us if we wanted to take additional pictures with the sunset. We were very tempted, but it was way past the time we agreed upon and so we felt guilty and decided to refuse the offer. Besides being super-talented and passionate, Jia is also very reliable and always responded in a timely-manner. Cannot recommend him enough!

    Choosing Jia as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!!! From the moment we began communicating with him he was always very friendly and organized. On the day of the wedding, his attention to detail resulted in truly stunning photos. We had a backyard wedding but Jia managed to find the perfect places and lighting for the photos, making the final products look like we were in a beautiful forest. He also captured so many moments that we did not even realize he was capturing, but were so happy that he did! On a final note, I will also mention that in addition to being an extremely talented photographer, Jia has the perfect personality for his job, and his presence at our wedding made it even more fun.

    From the moment my husband and I met Jia we knew he'd make the perfect photographer for us! Jia was very friendly and personable from the start which instantly made us feel very comfortable. Because of Jia's warm personality, we didn't feel nervous or awkward in front of the camera. Jia has a way of seeing the beauty that exists in everything around him regardless of where he is. He effortlessly is able to capture beautiful moments that occur naturally. We were very pleased with the photographs that were taken of us and our guests. Thanks to Jia's organization that he put in prior to the wedding day, everything ran very smoothly. In addition to accommodating special photo requests that we had, he also provided us with a lot of creative ideas. Since the wedding we have received not only compliments on the photos but on Jia. During and after the wedding, numerous guests would not stop raving about how much they loved him. On a day that can be so stressful, it was such a relief being surrounded by such a calm, positive and kind person. Thank you Jia for being the best photographer we could ever ask for! We look forward to working with you again!

    Of all the vendors I hired for my wedding, Jia of Frame Your Love was my absolute favorite. He responded in a timely manor to my initial request, giving us a detailed, easy-to-understand breakdown of his rate package, unlike other vendors who took days and sometimes weeks to respond with a vague "Let's talk." Jia's willingness to communicate through email was greatly appreciated by this teacher who was coordinating her wedding from three time zones away! He answered every little question I had, and was even willing at the last minute to extend his hours to accommodate a potential sparkler send-off. (Did I mention his rates were better than anyone else who quoted me?) At the event, he arrived early and began documenting our day with meticulous detail. He was a joy to work with, and although formal at first, he quickly adapted to my husband's sense of humor and we felt like we were with an old friend, so doing our first look and couples shots was so much fun. Stormclouds threatened from above, but Jia gave us our coveted garden photos in 20 minutes flat before it started pouring! I joked that he must also be a sports photographer, what with the way he was jumping, running, and balancing to get the best shots. I had shared a Pinterest page with him beforehand of my favorite wedding shots, and he must have studied them well because he kept beckoning to stop and "get that shot you wanted right here!" We even got compliments from guests, themselves photographers, impressed with his professionalism and talent. We loved the social media sneak peak as we eagerly awaited our photos, and now that we have the full portfolio, we couldn't be happier. Jia has a wonderful eye and his shots are art. The perfect professional to capture our special day!

    The care and enthusiasm Jia Y. provided on our wedding day, far exceeded our expectations. He went above and beyond to get great shots. Jia paid attention to details to ensure he would capture the best angle of every moment. He not only listened to the requests we had but also brought his own creativity and ideas. He had a positive and professional attitude. His passion and skills made it clear he was not just a wedding photographer but an artist. Jia played a huge role in making our big day perfect. I can't thank him enough and have already recommended him to several others!

    We were very happy that we chose Jia as our wedding photographer! From our first meeting to our engagement photo shoot to the wedding day, he was responsive and on top of all the details. For our engagement photo shoot he went above and beyond, spending extra time with us and delivering a ton of photos. The wedding day was equally great. He had an assistant there to help as well as take additional photo's, was well versed in the family/bridal party pictures we had requested and on his own coordinated pictures by table. We've received over 1,000 photo's from our wedding day and couldn't be happier. We haven't finalized our prints/album yet, but I'm sure they will turn out just as great as everything else so far. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone!

    Jia is a wonderfully talented photographer and we could not be more pleased with his service! My husband and I got married in May of this year and did a reveal before the ceremony at the park where he proposed. We were lucky to have such a beautiful day and Jia really captured it! Our ceremony pictures were gorgeous as well and we were so glad he took the time to take pictures of all our guests at each of their tables during the reception. We love that we will always have the photos as memories of every single person who was there. My friends and family all had very nice things to say about Jia's professionalism. The amount of photos he took was unbelievable as well! So many to choose from for framing, etc We highly recommend Jia and Diana, you will not be disappointed!

    Jia is an amazing photographer. For my last job, I coordinated a day-long photo shoot at a large nonprofit, so I had a pretty good idea of what to look for in a photographer. If you check out his portfolio of work on his website, you will see gorgeous photos, both staged and (more importantly to me), candids. I knew I wanted really natural photos of my guests enjoying the wedding in the moment, and Jia was able to get all of those shots in an organic, unobtrusive way. I was a bit sad when the day was over, but when the photos were shared a couple of weeks later as promised, they were better than I had even hoped for and it was a delight to relive the day all over again, and to enjoy them for the future. To top it all off, he's also a really nice guy! My husband and I can't recommend him highly enough.

    If we could rate Jia higher than 5 stars in each category we would. He was absolutely amazing to work with!! From our engagement photos to our wedding, we enjoyed each step of the process. Jia has an incredible passion for what he does, and it clearly shows in the photos he takes. He is not only affordable, but is an absolute joy to work with!

    Jia was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was very flexible with our availability and budget, and he always responded to us right away. He made two shy people comfortable in front of the camera and the pictures were just gorgeous. We couldn't be happier with the photos and service he provided. We would recommend him to anyone!

    Jia is a wonderfully talented photographer who is clearly passionate about what he does. My fiancé and I just finished our engagement photos with him. He recommended a beautiful park and was there early picking out the scenes for our special photos. He is enthusiastic and fun to work with. The photos are exceptional and we love his positive, happy attitude. We highly recommend him. Cannot wait for our wedding day! Thanks Jia !

He is funny and very personable. We didn't feel like he was a stranger but a friend attending the wedding. The pictures he takes are art - you won't be disappointed!

    Aside from my amazing husband waiting for me at the end of the aisle, Jia was the best thing to happen to our wedding. When the big day came and Jia arrived, we had already been able to form a comfortable relationship with him due to our fantastic experience during the engagement shoot, so we were 1000% confident he would not disappoint. From start to finish, Jia captured all of our amazing moments. It was the hottest day of the year; however, I did not see Jia sweat either literally or metaphorically. I still haven't figured out how he was able to seemingly magically be many places at once (because after seeing the photos I don't know how he captured everything) but he did. I have so many favorites, and I honestly feel Jia gave us a gift you cannot put a price on. My husband and i were both in tears when looking at the photos. I cannot wait to have more life events that need to be photographed so we can have the chance to with with Jia again. He's a talented photographer, an artist and expert in his craft; and moreover, a great human being. Thank you for Framing the best day of our lives Jia.

    Jia and Diana from Frame Your Love Photography were amazing. Jia was incredibly professional, responsive, and accommodating. He took a lot of time to photograph every detail and he completely respected and honored our wishes on what our vision was for our day. They were enjoyable to be around and made our guests feel totally comfortable. I would recommend Frame Your Love everytime for his ability to capture the moment beautifully, for a reasonable budget, with an artistic eye. I wish I could give him more than 5 stars. Thank you Jia and Diana!!

    Before choosing Jia for my wedding and engagement photography I made a down payment with another company. But feeling very uneasy about my decision and certain that I had not yet found the quality of photography I was looking for, I gave up my $300 down payment. As you know $300 is something when you are planning a wedding. I'm grateful I did though! Jia's service was superb! From the first time we spoke to when we met, he was responsive, friendly, flexible and professional. Our photos turned out amazing and everyone that met him loves his personality. Jia managed to capture just the right moments for my wedding and engagement shoot. I am amazed at the pictures when I look at them. His pictures quality is amazing and just what I was looking for! He is a lovely person to work with and I wish him nothing but continued success. You will not go wrong by hiring him! All the best Jia and thank you so much for capturing memories which will last us a lifetime!

    I found Jia through Wedding Wire, and after reading the reviews he seemed like a perfect fit. We first scheduled our engagement shoot, and the weather ended up being unfavorable and Jia had no problem rescheduling. On the date of our rescheduled shoot, I was a little under the weather emotionally because my father unexpectedly passed away one week before. I pushed myself and went through with it and I'm glad I did because it was a great experience. First of all the location was magical. I had originally wanted the Bronx Botanical gardens, but Jia proactively contacted them and found out there was a $150/hour permit fee. He then offered comparable locations that were free and the one we picked (Deep Cut Gardens in NJ) was beyond perfect. It was beautiful, and practically empty during the near sunset time we shot. Jia was not only professional; you could tell he knew his stuff. We could tell he had an idea in mind of what spots to shoot, what poses to do, etc. He also made us feel comfortable and captured the natural essence of our love. The photos... All I can say is WOW!!! They are the best photos we've ever taken and I could not be more excited for our big day. Jia is the best decision you could make, and I highly recommend him!

    Jia is the best decision we made for our engagement celebrations. Our friends recommended him as they used his services for engagement photos in NYC as well. We chose him because we were hoping for fun, photojournalistic wedding photos, rather than a series of portraits, and his photography met our style perfectly. This was no cheesy photo session and we greatly appreciate that. He was professional, responsive, and helpful from our first email, and we greatly appreciated her flexibility as a couple. We wanted a night time photo shoot at Lincoln Center on a Tuesday, which is not exactly your typical request and thus is not exactly the easiest yet Jia exceeded our expectations. He is easy to work with, fun to hang out with, and kept us calm. He was very interested to hear about particular shots/locations we wanted and made sure to capture them, I sent him pins of inspirations on pintrest. We are so pleased with our engagement photos which Jia returned to us more quickly than we expected. His price is very reasonable, and the quality of the photos are well worth the value. We would recommend Frame Your Love in a heartbeat! We are getting married out of the country and are bummed he will not be there for our wedding.

    Jia did our wedding photography for a small, intimate ceremony at Mohonk Mountain House in late August. The photos were utterly incredible -- he was so creative with his candid and portrait images and framing the background/setting. Everyone said the images were "breathtaking!" Jia coached us throughout the day so the photos looked natural and truly conveyed our emotion and chemistry which was most important to us in choosing a photographer. He was also a joy to have around on a sometimes stressful and personal day -- the entire family agreed. My husband and I both didn't even notice him during the ceremony and he moved so swiftly and quietly around. He is passionate and very personable, and worked swiftly and professionally through rain and shine (literally) on our special day. Jia also produced the finished images very quickly so it was great to share with family/friends immediately. My husband and I were so very happy with our overall choice and would highly recommend his services!! We feel very lucky to have stumbled upon this little gold mine of a photographer :)

    Our itinerary on the day of our wedding was a City Hall ceremony and then photos with iconic NYC background shots. The weather did not cooperate and it poured rain that day. Nevertheless, Jia was able to work around the weather and we got the photos we wanted. We decided to use the rain to our advantage and it turned out to be a wonderful experience! We would recommend Jia's services to anyone.

    I used Frame Your Love Photography for my wedding and had a great experience. I had Jia for photos and he was very friendly, experienced, and most of all very professional. He called me a week before the wedding to review everything and go over exactly what I wanted. The service speed was incredible, we got the edited photos preview only after one week and got all the edited photos only after two weeks! and all photos turned out amazing! We are really happy and highly recommand his service!

    Jia Yao was fantastic to work with and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for photographs to capture a special moment. When my husband and I decided we wanted photographs from the day we got married at city hall in New York, a friend recommended Jia and I am so glad she did. He was a pleasure to work with from day 1. He got to know us over email and gave us free reign over where to shoot our photos. After we picked our locations around the city, Jia came in ahead of time and scouted out the locations to search for the best photo ops. He even found a few sites we hadn't thought of that were near our original location ideas. On the day of the shoot, he came with high energy and made it easy and actually fun to shoot photos for four straight hours. Best of all, the photographs came out absolutely wonderful. He had a quick turn-around time for the pictures and they are artistic and captured both our love for each other and for NYC. They were exactly what we wanted. We have received so many compliments on the pictures we took on that day and cannot wait to frame a few to hang on our walls. I would 100% recommend Jia Yao and Frame Your Love to anyone looking to take pictures that are gorgeous and artistic and capture a special moment perfectly.

    We hired Jia to be our photographer for our engagement photo session at a few different locations (Central Park, Meatpacking,TheHighline) in November 2013. Jia was really easy to work with. He did his research for Central Park and checked it out beforehand in order to find the perfect spots for our photoshoot. We both enjoyed working with him as our photographer for the day. He did a fantastic job with the photos and editing them, even though the cold windy and rainy weather was not the easiest to work with. He was creative and had some great ideas for us to get the perfect shots with the right lighting. We are very happy with the results and we now have several favorite photos of us together which some of them will be used as our Save the Date, and we even made an album to give to our families for the holidays.

    Jia was a great choice to photograph our wedding. He was flexible, energetic and very easy going. We had a small wedding in a stunning setting. He had already scoped the venue out so had the best spots planned. He was also willing to stay longer. So far the pictures look amazing. Thanks Jia!!

    The photographer worked with us well in advance to set a price and photo package that my wife and I found very acceptable. When our day ended up running longer he was extremely flexible and stayed with us the rest of the day at another extremely affordable rate. We ended up adding many more photos than originally planned to our wedding album because there were simply too many amazing moments to choose from.
