Lauren F. Sent on 06/10/2021The best photographer around
EVERYTHING!!! Jackie has been there for us for every big milestone in our lives. She has captured it all and we will be using her for everything photo wise in our lives. Jackie really puts her whole heart into what she does. Her creativity is something I have never seen before. She is organized and truly cares about her clients. When I met Jackie years a go I not only gained an amazing photographer but an amazing friend. we cannot imagine using any one else when it comes to photos. if you are looking for an amazing experience that will blow you away Jackie is your person and not to mention she makes you feel so comfortable. We love Jackie so much! -

Jennifer R. Sent on 01/21/2019Excellent photos and excellent experience with Jackie
A special thanks to Jackie for capturing the memories of our engagement so so perfectly. You are AMAZING, truly. Guys, I was such a spaz after my fiancée proposed - I was shaking, nervous as hell, speechless. Not only did my fiancée book this amazing woman to photograph the proposal but he also booked our entire engagement photoshoot for that moment too. I was so anxious the photos would turn out awkward because I was SO overwhelmed during it, but wow Jackie captured all that emotion in a perfectly beautiful way. She knew exactly what to say to us during the engagement shoot to get the right angles and photos without making us FEEL like we were posing. It made the experience more fun and natural, especially for my fiancee who isn’t the biggest fan of taking pictures. The end result was beautiful candids as well as beautiful poses and of course priceless photos of the actual proposal. All of my girlfriends want their boyfriends to hire Jackie for their future proposals haha! In fact, one already did hire her for his Christmas proposal and their photos were to die for! AND to top it all off Jackie edits her photos in seriously record time so that we could view the photos as soon as possible. The estimated time is 2 or 3 weeks and she literally sent ours to us in under a week. Thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of our hearts. -

Katherine Sent on 03/13/2019Amazing Experience. Amazing Photographs. Amazing Memories!
Jackie was hired by my now fiancé to take our surprise engagement pictures! Thank goodness she was there to capture that magical moment because I was in such shock I hardly remember it!!! She was able to work with him to find us at the location and was hiding in the dunes on the beach at Coronado (at sunset!) snapping away while I still had no idea! She got every moment from us walking together before, to him proposing, the happiness after, and then some! We are so thankful and grateful she was there to take these AMAZING photographs that we will cherish forever! When I finally realized what was happening, and Jackie came up to greet us, it felt like we were already friends. She made us feel so comfortable, and the genuine happiness comes across our pictures effortlessly! Can't thank Jackie (and her husband!) enough. She was also very quick to get us some sneak peeks the very next morning so we could share with our friends and family who were anxiously waiting! Then sent the full album shortly after. Everything was wonderful. -

Our experience with Jackie was pure magic
Hiring Jackie was one of the best decisions we made about our wedding. Well, aside from each other of course :)
Jackie was referred to us by a coworker, and we loved her website and photography style. From our first meeting, Jackie dove right in getting to know our plans, our background and style, and our hopes for our pictures, all over beers. Jackie has this laid back personality, and we had so much fun chatting with her and getting excited about our wedding pictures with her, that we booked her right away a full year before our wedding. In that time, Jackie was a delight to work with, and was responsive, accommodating, and flexible for all questions and changes. We even reached out last minute to see if she could take pictures at our engagement party, and she was able to accommodate us with less than 2 weeks notice, and was a champ about the 1 hour drive. Jackie’s website makes the booking/planning process seamless, and it was so easy to make payments, get any needed documents, record all details and needs, and make last minute changes.
As it was, all of our wedding plans were completely annihilated by COVID-19--our 150 person wedding was planned for April 4, 2020, and San Diego country went into full lock down in the middle of March. In the chaos of cancelling all of our plans and frantically trying to figure out what’s next, Jackie was such a calming presence. She patiently waited for us to figure out our next steps, and was responsive and honest about making sure it fit within her comfort zone and schedule.
We ended up cancelling everything and just having a small elopement on our original wedding date. We went into Our Big Day with all precautions set for health and safety, but no real plans aside from “we’re getting married in this location,” and Jackie was DOWN FOR IT. We went into the day with melancholy feelings given the circumstances, and that all slipped away as soon as we put on our suit/dress and started taking pictures with Jackie. We had so much fun laughing, dancing, and cuddling while Jackie took pictures, that it still turned out to be a perfect day. My husband and I both normally feel so awkward in front of a camera, but Jackie let us do our thing, subtly adjusted us to more aesthetic angles without making us feel stiff, and seriously captured some magic. At one point we took a moment to privately say our vows in the middle of a field, and Jackie kept her distance to give us privacy but also took some of the most incredible pictures that make me cry when I see them because I can feel the wind, smell the flowers, and see the way my husband was looking at me in that moment. We are so grateful for Jackie, because she gave us such beautiful memories from a day that could have easily been so different. -

Sarah K. Sent on 11/05/2019Perfect presence and Captured the magic
Jackie was SUCH a blessing and an amazing photographer for our wedding. I really couldn't imagine any one better. She was a calming presence, took charge appropriately when needed, and the images she captured really reflected the mood of the day. It helped set the tone for us to just have a great experience all around. We were sort of nervous beforehand because my wife is not very fond of taking pictures, but Jackie's presence and direction made her feel so comfortable, and it's reflected in the images.
She was also flexible with the hours she worked and her packages because we didn't have an engagement session. She was really easy to schedule planning meetings with and responsive to emails and questions.
She got us a substantial "sneak peeks" album 2 days after the wedding and all photos 3 weeks after that.
I really can't say enough good things, Jackie was the best. I would recommend her to anyone. -

Alicia A. Sent on 08/09/2019Jackie is Wonderful!
Jackie was very easy to work with and turned our lovely reception photos around really quickly! She captured sweet moments, gestures, and the great time that was had by all. My only regret is that I wish we'd had more time and a bigger budget to take more shots of just the two of us. I love the group shots, friends shots, and images of the decor and setting she captured with gorgeous natural light. Jackie is very sweet and professional which is exactly what you want in a wedding event photographer, highly recommend.Jackie Batch Photography's reply:
Thanks so much for this sweet review! I had such a great time capturing your reception and hope we can work together again in the future! -

Lauren M. Sent on 02/23/2019Creative Photographer that's also professional and responsive!
Jackie is the PERFECT mix of professional and fun. Which is exactly what all brides need from the person responsible for all the most important photos from the most important day of your life. Early on in the wedding vendor process, Jackie stood out to me with her communication and responsiveness. Where other photographers were slow to respond or not detailed in their responses, or outrageously over any non-celebrity wedding budget - Jackie was communicating on phone, text, email, and accommodating to our situation. She was able to gently offer advice, but LISTENED to me when I told her what my needs were! She offered meetings and engagement session, etc., but we just couldn't do any of it, due to living across the country. Nonetheless, her communications with me prior to the BIG day, helped me feel at ease. I knew she'd show up and kick butt. She came in friendly as heck and just ready to creatively capture our big day. Such a pleasure to work with her on the big day. Now, i'm still sifting through photos, but overall, they are all phenomenal. She captured what I was looking for and her cost was actually in my budget. I HIGHLY recommend anyone to hire Jackie as their professional photographer - for any occasion. I look forward to working with her more, as one of her clients for life. -

Krista Sent on 10/02/2018Jackie is incredible! She made us feel so comfortable at our engagement shoot and helped our wedding day go perfectly capturing every moment. Jackie is very flexible, easy to work with and adventurous (literally climbing up rocks and mountains to get the perfect shot haha). We could not be happier with the finished product and would recommend her a million times over!

Sarah Sent on 09/26/2018We could not of asked for a better experience! Jackie is sweet, professional and extremely talented in her photos and edits. My husband hates photos, literally everything about taking photos stresses him out and he was really nervous about having a ton of photos taken on our wedding day. Not only did Jackie make him feel comfortable, she was able to capture his true reactions and feelings in the photos. She took the stress away from both of us and we now have wedding photos that are not at all posed but show our true emotions and happiness of the day! Jackie had incredible ideas that led to some of my favorite photo in the now and down by a creek! Not to mention that herding my family is like herding cats and Jackie was patient with all of them and was able to get photos that everyone in the family love and are very happy with! I can not thank Jackie enough for traveling to Colorado and giving me better wedding photos than I could ever ask for. If anyone is looking for a photographer look no further than Jackie!

Juanita Sent on 01/08/2017Our experience with Jackie Batch was top notch! She was very easy going, accommodating and personable. I felt comfortable with her even when we were doing my boudoir shoot! And that's not easy :) The pictures were great and she kept us on task so we were sure to get the pictures we wanted before the time ran out. We'd love to hire her for all our photographic needs!
