    Incredible Team & Wonderful Talent

    Jake & Kendra make a great team. I was the MOH in a wedding that they provided the photography for, and from the first moments of interacting with them they became part of our tribe. They went above and beyond to make sure the photos needed were captured, but their biggest talent was capturing the genuine moments. Most photographers are applauded for being "invisible" and "unnoticed"; however, Jake and Kendra take it a step further by becoming a part of the celebration. You can tell they both genuinely care about their craft and business, but most importantly they care about their clients and the experience as a whole. Kendra at one point had sweaters, sunglasses and other accessories in her arms so that the wedding party could focus on looking spectacular. Jake not only joined our rambunctious group in the limo, but was also spotted dancing on the dance floor. They were a blast to work with, and became an instant part of our group! That being said - their art speaks for itself. The photos are gorgeous and show a superior level of talent. With photos being an investment that lasts forever Jake and Kendra are worth every dollar!

    Covid Winter Wedding 2021

    Jake was an absolute gem to work with. Covid really took us through a roller coaster of events with time & venue changes. Jake was accommodating to every change we had to make and assured us that it would be beautiful no matter how big or small our wedding was. He captured so many stunning and dreamy photos. Jake is communicative, professional, artistic, and a great cheerleader to make sure your wedding happens no matter what, all while taking safety precautions. I can’t recommend him more to trust for your big day!

    Flexible, friendly, and creative

    Jake was flexible and very understanding when we had to change our wedding date and downsize our ceremony and reception due to COVID. Jake and his wife and photography assistant, Kendra, were willing to start their day early and photograph a 5k we ran with some of our guests the morning of our wedding. We highly recommend hiring Jake for your photography needs--he has a great eye, is very easy to work with, and really cares about his craft. We're so happy with our photos and experience!

    Love Jake & Kendra!

    Jake and his wife Kendra made the day so easy and worry-free. They truly are two of the kindest people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. I highly recommend them on every level; value, professionalism, everything is top-notch. So thankful to have them as a part of my day and to have the photos they took as beautiful memories.

    We love our photos!

    We had an amazing experience with Jake - from our engagement photos, to our wedding portraits. The work was amazing, and he captured memories we will cherish forever. Not to mention, he is kind and easy to work with. He even photographed some of the “Bosnian traditions” during our wedding, proving how versatile he is. We would recommend Jake Swan Photography to anyone who needs their event photographed!

    Professional, fun, & personable.

    Jake was everything we needed on our big day! Not only did he take amazing photos, but he was also just fun to be around. All of our friends and family commented on how fun him and his wife were at the reception. Sure they were there to take pictures but they danced a little too. He got some of the best dancing reception pics ever! Moments we would have missed if he wasn’t there with the camera. We will definitely be calling him for all of our further picture needs!

    We Recommend Jake to Everyone Needing Photography Services

    Jake and Kendra were more than incredible to work with on our wedding day. Jake was very easy to communicate with and helpful with creating shot lists. On our wedding day, Jake and Kendra were there in the morning to take getting ready photos and stayed all the way until the end of the reception. After our wedding we received the flash drive of our photos in a timely manner and we were blown away with how well all of the photos turned out. As a side point, Jake and Kendra are both easy to get along with, which was so nice to have on such an important day.

    Literally amazing

    Jake and Kendra were so amazing to work with! We had both our engagement and wedding photographs done. Our photos for both were exquisite! I wish I could marry my husband 10 times over, just so we could have our photos taken by Jake and Kendra.

    Amazing Service, Amazing Photos

    Jake and his lovely wife were the photographers for my New Years Eve Wedding and they were amazing. Jake was with us from the start to the finish, and captured so many amazing moments. He was patient with our schedule and organized. He had great ideas for unique photos and we couldn't be happier with the results. The price is also very reasonable for such quality photos. I would recommend Jake if you want unique in the moment photos to remember your big day.

    I had never had professional photos taken before and Jake did a wonderful job making us feel comfortable throughout our engagement photo session. He captured our personalities perfectly!

    Having a having a close friend capture important memories!

    Jake is not only extremely professional and talented, he is also very fun! Jake make it a point to capture the moments we requested and then some. All of our wedding and engagement photos came out beautifully and we are going to have to find more wall space in the house to display them all. Together Jake and Kendra are a perfect team and make everyone feel comfortable and capture the best in every image.

    We’re sooo happy we chose Jake to take our pictures for our special day! He was so patient with us! We loved every idea he had, we both are shy when it comes to the camera but he made us feel at ease and we love our pictures!!! The way he uses the natural light is so amazing!

    Thank you for the kind words! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Kendrick. You were both so easy to photograph and I greatly appreciated the overall feeling of your wedding day! :)

    Jake did both our wedding and engagement photos, and we are in love with every shot he took! We’ve received so many compliments on both our engagement and wedding photos, they’re amazing. He is so nice, creative, and easy to work with. He was there from beginning to end on our wedding day capturing the day perfectly and making sure we got all the shots we wanted. Whatever the reason is you need a photographer, I highly recommend Jake!

    Jake did a great job! He did our wedding photos in Cleveland. He is able to customize photos to how you want them and really listens to you. He will pose you and get different shots and they look so good! Always up to try a new idea.

    Aww, thank you! I really appreciate your review. Your wedding was beautiful. You and Iosif were so easy to work with and I'm glad to hear you were happy with the photos! :)

    Jake’s photos are beautiful and polished while remaining unique and human. I love how he captured the personalities of everyone in my wedding and my guests. No boring, emotionless pictures here! They all feel very natural to me. On top of that, during the wedding, Jake is always in the right place without ever being in the way. He also drove down to Cincinnati from Erie a couple months before to do engagement photos. Amazing work! Perfect capturing of memories and emotions!

    Jake Swan Photos's reply:

    You and Jordan are so fun! Thank you for the thoughtful words! I loved the down to earth, intimate feel of your wedding. It was lovely! :)

    Fun, special

    Jake made our wedding day so much fun! He made sure to get the shots we wanted and much more. He made the getting ready process enjoyable and fit right in with everyone. Stayed the entire night and went above and beyond with reception pictures! Very happy with the outcome and the memories made:)

    Jake did our engagement and wedding photos, and we couldn’t have been happier! From the second I got engaged I knew I wanted him to be our photographer, and I’m so happy we were able to book him. He was super kind and easy to work with. He captured our wedding day so beautifully, and we’re so happy to have such amazing photos to look back on to remember our special day. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

    Jake Swan Photos's reply:

    Brooke! You and Cody are such amazing people and it was a privilege to photography your wedding. I am not only proud of how the photos turned out but more importantly I'm so happy that you two love them. :) Also you were troopers for your engagement session, so cold! Haha

    Hiring Jake as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Before the big day, he met with us personally and went over how we would like the day to go, and made sure he would capture any specific moments that were important to us! On the day of the wedding, he was calm but organized, and 100% professional! We loved how at the reception, he was right in the middle of the dance floor, capturing all of our friends and family dancing the night away, having a blast! Those pictures are some of the most precious. Jake thought of everyone, I don’t think there was a single guest who wasn’t photographed at least once. When we received our pictures about a month later on a gorgeous engraved USB, we couldn’t have been more happy and in love with our pictures! I may have teared up a bit reliving our special day. We couldn’t be more happy with our experience with Jake, we would highly recommend him to anyone!!

    Both professional and artistic. Jake was able to strike the perfect balance of being low key yet capturing every perfect moment.
