Dawn Sent on 04/30/2023Top Notch Photographer
My husband and I had the privilege of having Jude as our Photographer for our April 1, 2023 wedding. Having both been married before, we knew exactly what we wanted for this wedding and it was to have fun with our guests and not be pulled away from our reception for hundreds of pictures. Not only did Jude listen to our request, he respected it and delivered. We set aside 45 minutes for formal pictures after the ceremony and then asked him to then photograph the rest as "in the moment" shots. And boy did he do just that! We were able to dance the entire night while he worked the room and took some of the most amazing shots. Several of my guests actually commented on how great Jude was too so it was clearly obvious. He had such a way of making everyone feel comfortable and it showed in the photos. He was such a pleasure to work with and I would recommend him without a doubt. Jude, thank you for helping to make our special day "magical." You were everything that we were looking for in a Photographer and you did not disappoint. We can't thank you enough for honoring our wishes. -

I just want to take some time out to thank Hollyglow Studios for capturing all the love, joy, happiness, laughter, tears... every moment of the magical day (5.1.2021) my beautiful bride and I said I do! The ceremony itself was absolutely perfect! A large part of this was due to the expert photography provided to us by Hollyglow Studios! The attention paid to each and every detail was absolutely astounding! Thanks to Hollyglow, we have the perfect illustrations for us to look back on for years to come! There were photos we prepped for, as well as unexpected shots that came out beautifully! To top it off, the photos were available for us to download on Mother's Day (an added bonus of a Mother's Day gift). With the benefit of digital download, I was able to either download pictures or just send the link. I sent a cache of photos to a family member who was unable to attend, but so very much wanted to. I, myself was unable to take any photos, due to my phone falling victim to a critical error just 24 hours prior :( I was very disappointed, because I couldn't take any photos on my own - but it wasn't even necessary; any pictures I would have thought about taking, were taken by Hollyglow - and then some. Even today, we are all still talking about the events of last week. Everyone LOVED Jude; his professionalism, his warm and personable demeanor made everything go extremely smooth. We are ALL exceptionally pleased with how the photos came out. We have a sweet sixteen coming up for one of my daughters; there is NO QUESTION as to who will be taking the pics on that day! Hollyglow is the ONLY way to go!!! -

Beautiful pictures
Jude was awesome! He has a great personality. He responds fast and was on time. The pictures of my daughter’s wedding were beautiful. Would definitely highly recommend. His prices are very reasonable, and the quality of the pictures are top notch! -

Jude came out to our wedding and was an immediate hit! Turns out we share a similar hobby and we really bonded over that, he even went out of his way to take extra pictures of my wife where she was getting ready with her car. It was awesome! He gave us tons of great ideas and had a wonderful energy. He had us laughing and feeling very natural during the post ceremony process, and you can definitely see it in the pictures. I highly recommend HollyGlow for any wedding, a highlight of our memorable day! -

Jude was our photographer and he did an amazing job. He was super personable and really helped to make our day extra special. He adapted to our special requests of wanting some pictures done with our friends and cars and took it to the next level. He was super easy and fun to work with and the pictures are incredible!! A lot of my friends ended up asking about him for their wedding as well. Thank you so much to Jude and Hollyglow Studios!!!! -

Jude: Dave and I cannot rave enough about our experience with you on our Big Day! Seriously, you were one of the best parts of our entire wedding. You kept a smile on our faces, helped manage unnecessary drama, and laughed the day away with us. And our wedding photographs? ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL WORK! We are so in love with all of them. How can we properly thank you for giving us the best gift possible? Thank you so much for all that you did in creating such gorgeous art of our wedding! From the bottom of our hearts!!! -

Picture Perfect Wedding!
It was great working with Hollyglow Studios. Jude was everywhere and really helped capture perfect candid moments. He helped me and my husband pose (we are so clueless) and was great to work with. He had our best interest at heart and I am so glad we found Hollyglow Studios. We were able to get the pictures within a week and they came out so great!! -

Jude sent back our photos exactly one week after our wedding and all I can say is they are beautiful. Everyone who has seen our photos thinks they are wonderful. Jude managed to be everywhere at once and captured moments I didn't even realize were happening. -

Jude did our shoot and it was pretty awesome. Very nice and pleasant to work with. He knew exactly what he was doing and made sure we all had fun while doing the shot before our reception. He captured beautiful moments throughout the reception. I would highly recommend Jude from Hollyglow! -

Finding a good wedding photographer that is also budget-friendly is a huge feat in the DMV area. I found Jack & Jude from wedding wire and they were by far the most affordable high-quality photographers I spoke to, during my extensive vendor search process. We did not have an engagement shoot and so I was not sure how our experience on the wedding day would be. On the big day, Jack & Jude reached the venue on time and as soon as I spoke to them, I immediately warmed up to them - both of them are very friendly, genuine and warm. We had a wedding ceremony followed by the cocktail hour and the dinner reception and while we took plenty of pictures before and after the ceremony, it never felt like a chore (with the wrong photographer, it absolutely can!). During the reception, we were dancing, moving around and mingling with friends and yet at all times, found either Jack or Jude nearby taking our photos.
Less than a week after the wedding, we got digital copies of our photos and we loved them! Jack & Jude captured the love and happiness that we were so fortunate to be blessed with on our wedding day and we are so happy to have these photos as memories of our big day.
Looking back on our day, I only have a couple of minor suggestions for improvement:
- Use of different parts of a wedding venue and a more diverse range of "poses" would be helpful. I found photos of some beautiful aspects of the wedding missing such as the welcome signs and the signed "guest book". There were also a couple of more locations at the wedding venue that could have been leveraged for photos. Similarly, using different poses for the couple would also have added some more variety to the pictures.
- There was a minor delay in the ceremony between when the flower girl was supposed to walk down the aisle and when Jack asked her to start walking. As a result, she walked down the aisle after her song had ended. This was not a big deal to me but this may cause anxiety to some folks.
To summarize: Please hire Jack & Jude. They are awesome. We look forward to using their services for many more years to come. -

Jack and Jude were amazing to have at the wedding; they were funny and made taking wedding photos a lot of fun. Normally, I feel bored posing for photos, but they kept it interesting. I recieved my photos exactly 1 week following my wedding and I was absolutley blown away. My wedding looked so beautiful and I got to look back at the things I didnt have a chance to see the day of. Thank you so much!! I definitely reccommend Hollyglow and I will use them for any other events I have that need photographed. -

We used Hollyglow Studios for our recent wedding, and they were absolutely wonderful. We planned our wedding from the literal other side of the world, and Jude and Jack were extremely responsive and easy to reach throughout the entire process. Their pricing is extremely reasonable for the high quality of service that they provide. On the day itself they were even better, they arrived bright and early to take shots of the bridal party getting ready and of all of our accessories. They were both very friendly and personable and made us all feel at ease. During the ceremony and reception they made sure to get all the shots we requested with specific family members, but also blended in with the scenery enough to get some great candids. They were speedy in getting the photos to us after all was said and done (with only about a week turnaround time). The photos were all beautiful and easy to access (and perfectly lit! which is hard to find). Our guests all also loved them, and we got lots of compliments on the photos and their fun personalities. All in all, we would recommend Hollyglow Studios 100%. -

Jude and Jack were absolutely amazing at our wedding! The photos look wonderful, and I had several of the guests come up to us at the end of the wedding and tell us how much they loved Jude and Jack. They were so much fun!
Thank you, Jude and Jack!
