    100% Guaranteed Success

    We worked with Jon for our civil wedding photos in Brooklyn Heights and couldn't be happier with the whole process. From the moment we got in touch with him for the first time until the handoff of all the photos, the experience was seamless. His extremely organised work methodology made everything smooth and easy.

    We spent two hours with him walking around Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO, and the result was a great variety of photos. Jon's got a special eye for lighting, composition and editing. On top of everything, his personality while working made it possible for us to act natural in front of the camera.

    100% recommend working with him. It will be fun and the final edits will be memorable.

    Central Park Micro wedding

    JC photography is 10/10! Jon is a true professional and creates the most magical photos. He perfectly captured our Central Park elopement and was invaluable on our special day. He seamlessly fit into our day and took the lead when needed to ensure he got the best photos! Can not recommend more highly!

    A Gem of a Photographer and Person!

    We absolutely adore the photos of our small, intimate wedding. Jon was excellent at helping us relax during our photo sessions (we're not the most extroverted couple). He was super accommodating with all our requests. And with a small guest list of five, he was so exceptionally friendly and professional with our loved ones. He also went the extra mile at times like helping us find a lost guest in the park. We couldn't recommend Jon enough!

    Friendly, chill photographer with an amazing eye for detail

    I could not recommend Jon Lemon more highly as a wedding photographer. He was a delight to work with - well-organized, highly responsive, friendly, accommodating, and extremely chill. Plus, the photos were gorgeous, colorful, bright, and full of joy. He has a true gift for capturing people’s expressions (especially on the dance floor) which made going through our photo album truly feel like reliving our wedding day alongside our friends and family.

    Exceptional Elopement Photographer!

    Wow! Given how much uncertainty and change we had to manage around postponing our larger wedding due to COVID, it was such a delight to work with someone as professional and easy going as JC Lemon Photography for our elopement. Jon was responsive, transparent and highly prepared during the quick turnaround of planning our elopement. On the day of our wedding, Jon showed up early and was able to scope out areas of Central Park for photos that we never thought of. He immediately put us at ease with his big smile and enthusiasm for our special day. We were completely blown away by Jon's creativity. He really listened to our wishes about the types of photos we wanted while also making sure he got the best photos possible for us. I can't recommend JC Lemon Photography enough. Thank you for everything, Jon!!

    Beautiful photos (and a fun shoot!)

    We hired Jon to photograph our wedding in May which we ended up having to cancel due to the pandemic. We still wanted beautiful photos to celebrate our marriage and Jon was amazingly flexible about changing the plan. We did a photo shoot with him in October around Brooklyn Heights and Brooklyn Bridge Park and could not be happier with the results! All of our friends and family keep saying how "us" the pictures are. The details of each photo are beautiful - from great angles to perfect lighting, Jon knew exactly where to pose us and was super fun and friendly to be with. Highly recommend!

    The best of the best!

    JC Lemon was the most important part of my entire city hall wedding (besides my bride and family of course)! The moments he captured were so candid, so precious, and simply perfect. There isn’t a single picture we don’t LOVE. Not only is he a skilled and creative photographer, he is such a great and positive person! He helped facilitate the city hall process, kept our group together, and made a special day truly sparkle!

    Amazing experience and beautiful pictures!

    We cannot express enough how happy we are that we chose Jon to capture our wedding. From the time we booked, to the end of our wedding day, he made us feel at ease and gave us just the right amount of direction. That was even before we received his amazing pictures of the day! He made us feel so comfortable. As he captured our wedding reception, Jon very carefully tended to the style that we wanted and personalized things throughout. The pictures are amazing and are a perfect memory for our day. You will not regret hiring Jon:)

    A brilliant photographer and guide to New York

    Jon is wonderful art director, photographer and guide to New York. He's also an awesome human being. We shared a wonderful day with him capturing moments from our wedding day in Brooklyn, City Hall and Grand Central Station. Thanks Jon.

    Fantastic wedding photographer!

    It was an absolute pleasure to have Jon as our photographer at our wedding in May. He was incredibly supportive and thoughtful throughout the process. He did an engagement photoshoot with us in our favorite neighborhoods of Brooklyn. He helped us think through logistics for the big day to make sure we got all our favorite moments (and people!) captured. He asked for our guidance and perspective so that the photos and memories he captured were exactly what we wanted from the day of. He was also communicative and thoughtful throughout the process - sending us tips & tricks and prep emails to get us pumped up.

    Most importantly, the photos he took were beautiful. They captured the day in exquisite detail with shots that we will cherish for many years to come. We have already filled our apartment with his photos and are looking forward to his stunning photobook that will be coming soon.

    Thank you Jon for capturing our wedding day perfectly and being a supportive and enthusiastic part of our wedding!

    Wedding Photographer

    Jon was absolutely amazing!! I loved his pictures from his website and knew that I needed to have him capture my wedding day! Everyone that attended raved about him! He made everything run so smoothly! We will definitely be using him for any photography in the future.

    Hands down the best!

    Usually at a wedding you hear guests raving about the food or music, however in our case they were also raving about our photographer (which was crazy because no one had even seen his work at this point)! Jon was so amazing in every way. On top of taking beautiful photos, he is a genuine person who puts in effort to get to know you before your big day. Jon got my vision and was able to capture our wedding better than I had expected. The bridal party loved having him around as well, he was cracking jokes and felt like part of our crew. I would highly recommend hiring him to capture your wedding! Thank you so much Jon!

    JC Lemon Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much, y'all were a blast to get to know and spend time with! And extra thanks for being adventurous in the skate park for that dramatic portrait!

    5.0 out of 5.0

    Jon has to be the most talented wedding photographer around. We instantly fell in love with his work from his website, and knew that if our day was captured half as beautifully as his other clients — we would be thrilled.

    The process of working together, leading up to and after our big day, was seamless. We felt perfectly in the loop with every step — knowing what to expect and when, while never feeling overwhelmed.

    On the day of, Jon blended in immediately with his incredible “bedside manner” and was able to make everyone smile super big (which isn’t always easy… lookin’ at you Uncle Larry).

    He took the time to get to know us and incorporated everything we had hoped for (and everything we didn’t know we wanted!) in the final product.

    We’re forever grateful for the priceless moments Jon captured for us and our families. We have recommended him to everyone we know, and once you work with him, you’ll do the same.

    Best Wedding Photographer Ever!

    Having Jon as our wedding photographer was a dream! He made us feel so at ease and cracked some great jokes leading to some amazing candid shots that encapsulated what a fun day we had.
    From initial consultation call to being accommodating with edits/retouches we asked to be made - we would recommend Jon 100%.

    Perfection

    Jon and his team were amazing. Not only were they attentive, but they made the whole experience fun. All of the pictures were taken with such ease that helped to make everyone relaxed and the day feel like an actual celebration. Not to mention- the pictures are fantastic! You'd be crazy to go with anyone else.

    Planning a wedding is stressful enough with so many different moving parts. Our photos was one thing we rested easy about because of Jon’s utmost professionalism and excellent communication. From start to finish, Jon was crystal clear about what to expect and when all the flurry of activities were happening all at once the day of, Jon was always at the right place at the right time, capturing all the moments. My wedding day felt like a happy ending to a fairytale and Jon was definitely one of the angels that made it happen! I would recommend Jon to anyone that wants a down to earth and awesome photographer!!

    We've just had our photos back 4 weeks after our New York City elopement and we couldn't be happier. From the first contact we had with Jon to getting our photos yesterday he has been absolutely amazing. Eloping is quite nerve-wracking but Jon was happy to answer all of our questions in the build-up to our trip. From the minute we met with Jon outside City Hall it felt like we could just relax as he took us through the process. We've never had a photoshoot before and we're pretty uncomfortable with the attention, but Jon just made us laugh and let us be ourselves. The 4-week wait has felt like a lifetime but it's completely worth it. Every picture is amazing, and they've completely captured how we felt on the day. We can't thank Jon enough, and we would recommend him to absolutely anyone who's thinking of eloping.

    I could not have imagined having a better photographer for my wedding day! Not only was the final product AMAZING, Jon was such a pleasure to work with from the moment we booked our date with him to the delivery of our wedding photos and photo book. Jon truly has an eye for capturing each special moment throughout such an exciting day. Not only is Jon's work product fantastic, he is such fun to be around and he made the entire process exciting. My husband and I could not be happier with our choice to have JC Lemon Photography photograph our wedding day!

    Best Vendor Decision We Made!

    This review is woefully overdue, considering that JC Lemon Photography was truly the best choice we made of all vendors for our wedding. We've never taken professional photos before and didn't take engagement photos, so we were a bit nervous how we'd feel taking formal photos on our big day. Jon felt more like a wedding guest than a photographer and he made us, and our entire bridal party and family, feel completely comfortable. Jon and his team were never invasive or pushy--and being that we've personally been bridesmaids/groomsmen many times over, we know how incredibly rare this is in a wedding photog. Our photos came our gorgeous--both our posed portraits and the awesome candid shots that were captured.

    We were also grateful to Jon's communication and organization leading up to the wedding day--as those getting married will understand, planning a wedding is a huge feat and there are so many moving pieces and details to consider. I consider myself an extremely organized person, but Jon kept us on track for major decisions we needed to make and helped us set a schedule the day of, which was invaluable. We spoke to him many times throughout the process so that by the time our wedding day came, he felt like a friend and we knew we could rely on him.

    Thank you again Jon and Jared for making the memories of our big day exactly what we could have hoped for and so special!! Everyone should seriously hire JC Lemon.

    We absolutely adored Jon. He really took the time to get to know my husband and I before our wedding and his attention to detail did not go unnoticed. Not only is he professional and extremely talented at what he does, he is a complete GEM of a human being and a joy to be around. We chose Jon because we wanted a more editorial vibe, nothing too cheesy or cliche and he did NOT disappoint. We recently got our photos back during a special reveal party he planned for us filled with champagne and donuts and it was just perfect. He is so incredibly thoughtful and thinks of EVERYTHING!! Whether you have a specific idea of what you have in mind or are completely lost, through a series of questionnaires and emails, he will get down to the bottom of every detail and put you at ease. There are just not enough words to describe how lucky we were to find Jon. He really has a wonderful eye and takes beautiful photographs. If you are looking for someone that truly loves what they do and takes pride in in their work, stop searching! This will be the best decision you make for your wedding, I promise. So much love to you Jon - you're the best!

    Jon & Sascha were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. We were both bowled over by the level of service, the amazing attention to detail, and the flexibility of Jon & Sascha on the day. The experience was extremely memorable and with out them our day would not have been as special. They became a welcome part of our wedding I did not expect. The end photos and service was just unbelievable. Highly recommended!
