Personable, Experienced, and Organized!

Jessica Painter is your best friend in wedding photographer form. Truly. I don’t know another way to put it! She is truly amazing and worth every penny and more! Everything felt SO comfortable and natural- from the engagement shoot to our dinner meet up before the wedding and all leading up to the big day! She felt like a friend with a camera! We connected immediately via email when I was searching for a photographer and it only intensified at our e-shoot. This was important to me, since your photographer is typically there for ALL moments throughout your special day, big and small, intimate and communal. The relationship she built with us no doubt played a roll in the day’s success! Not only that, but she helped us develop a timeline that was custom to our wants, but also efficient and extensive to cover all of the details we wanted recorded. She pays close attention to detail, as well as gets to know you personally as well as what you want captured and how you want it captured. I cannot say enough good things about her. If you book her, you will NOT be disappointed. I haven’t even gotten my wedding photos back yet, but I know if they’re going to be anything like my e-shoot photos, they’re going to be out of this world! Thank you Jessica, and Amanda, for elegantly capturing our day for us! We couldn’t be more appreciative!

High Quality Photos with a Personal Touch

Working with Jessica and her assistant on the day of our wedding was fabulous. They were both professional and fun, making sure we got all the pictures that we wanted. The pictures are of high quality and definitely worth the cost to remember our special day. Jessica is AMAZING, she takes the time to get to know prior to your wedding day and checks in on you periodically throughout the process.

Best Decision!

There is so many great things to say about Jessica and her assistant. Jessica was so personable from the first time talking, all the way through the wedding. A few weeks before the wedding she scheduled a phone call to go over timeline and all the details with me. She made sure that everything we wanted captured was noted so I did not have to remember what photos I wanted which was a huge relief! She also asked about photos I did not think of which was great to have her insight for. (and her and her assistant love dogs, so they made sure to capture some great photos with my dogs on the wedding day!)

It ended up raining during some of the day but I knew Jessica was going to still get amazing shots and she did. Choosing someone to have the responsibility of capturing your day is stressful, but Jessica made it an easy decision. Having someone so professional, personable and talented was the best decision we could have made. Hire her!

There are not enough positive words in my vocabulary to describe Jessica of Jessica Painter Photography! I will start out by saying that my husband and I have very (VERY!) high expectations and are difficult to impress. When we stumbled across Jessica’s website, we knew that we found a diamond in the rough. We were so impressed with her unique style and the quality of her work and we were thrilled that she could join us on our special day.

My husband and I had a very small destination wedding (15 guests) and Jess was able to work out a pricing package that included everything we wanted at a price that fit within our budget. Jess was extremely responsive throughout the whole process and really listened and understood what we wanted. Although we did not have a chance to meet in person before the wedding, Jessica and her assistant, Heather were extremely personable and friendly which made my husband and I feel instantly comfortable. We were able to be ourselves and Jessica really captured who we are as a couple.

It is abundantly clear that Jessica is extremely passionate about her craft and her business. Her talent is unmeasurable and the quality of her product exquisite and unmatched. Jessica is absolutely one-of-a-kind. We are completely enamored with all of the photos from our special day and we will treasure them forever!

Jessica and her team were awesome! From the very first phone call she was flexible and responsive. She worked with me through everything and was always pleasant to chat with. The day of my wedding Jessica and her partner were on it! We had a very long day and Jessica made sure she was on top of everything and everyone. From all the little details to the ‘in the moment’ craziness, she got it all! She can really capture the true moment of your special day. I can’t stop looking at my pictures! They are so beautiful.

There are so many wonderful things I can say about Jessica Painter Photography! My husband and I got married in 2016 and had been engaged for 2 years. As soon as he popped the question I began my search for a photographer and found Jessica. She is the definition of professional AND patient! I can recall emailing her many, many times throughout those two years and she was prompt and courteous in each reply. She truly eased my worries and was a saint to answer all of my questions. Jessica and her husband Ed made everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera during the big day. She was able to capture every shot I had envisioned being taken and exceeded my expectations when we received our photos! It was like reliving the whole day again. After the wedding is over, you have your memories and photos to remember it by and she created such a stunning visual of how the day unfolded. During the album process, she was again patient as can be and answered ALL of my design questions. I am telling you that during this whole ordeal you will be thinking of questions you cannot fathom of asking until you are in that mindset, and to have a photographer who possesses the ability to address all of your worries with a kind demeanor is such a reassurance. Jessica and Ed are a fantastic team, please do not hesitate to have them capture your happiest moments!

Jessica Painter was the best decision my husband and I made during our wedding planning process. We were blown away by her on so many levels. When you meet Jessica, you will know right away that she is so passionate about what she does. She is incredibly caring, attentive and just a lovely person inside and out. She will instantly make you feel comfortable in front of that camera, as she uses her humor and her calm cool and collected nature to make the entire experience enjoyable! Her work is art- it is so beautiful and she puts so much effort into her product you will never have doubts about hiring her. She truly captures the moment and the love in every frame. Looking back, I can't imagine going through our wedding day without her. It's like you have a close friend there with you to help you through all the stress of the day. Please do not look further- you will not regret it! She captured one of the best days of our lives and we will be forever grateful for having her apart of our lives! We will cherish these pictures forever!

I don't even know where to begin; we had the best experience with Jessica Painter Photography. Jessica was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the entire planning process. She responded to e-mails within hours and provided recommendations for a number of different vendors when I inquired. We met with Jessica and Ed early on and felt comfortable and excited to work with them on our special day. When the day came we were not disappointed - they were amazing. They continuously bounced different photo ideas off of each other which showed their passion for photography and their commitment to excellence. They were never intrusive and always ensured that we felt comfortable. We are SO excited to see all of photos and based on the teasers expect nothing but the absolute best. I would recommend Jessica Painter Photographer to anyone who is looking for a wedding photographer.

Photography was one of the most important decisions for me for our wedding, and I did a ton of research online. Jessica's photos immediately stood out to me and were exactly what I was looking for. From the initial conversation, to the day of the wedding, Jessica was a pleasure to work with. She would always respond promptly to emails, was VERY organized, and had a ton of good ideas. I was stress free the day of the wedding because I had gone through the entire day with her multiple times. Jessica (and her husband Ed!) arrived on time (actually a little early!), immediately set up and started shooting. She discussed the option of a first look with me, and the benefit of having so much extra time to shoot..boy was I glad I took her advice! Not only was it a very special moment just between my husband and I, but it gave us 2 hours prior to the ceremony to really take our time and get every shot we wanted. They did their research and picked beautiful backdrops for our photos! They even battled some difficult weather for us (sorry that you got soaked Ed!!). In the end, everything turned out perfect and we couldn't be happier with the photos we received. We've gotten so many compliments on our photos..even from a set photographer from a major television show that my brother works for! Anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding should hire Jessica Painter Photography..you won't regret it!!

It is hard to put into words how AMAZING it was to work with Jess and Ed of Jessica Painter photography. Our first meeting with Jess and Ed was awesome. They were relaxed, friendly, and knowledgeable. We were very comfortable with them right from the beginning and it honestly felt like we had known them for years. After the initial meeting, my then fiance and I left with huge grins on our faces. We were so excited! We knew almost instantly that the both of them were meant to be a part of our special day. It was also no coincidence that Jess and Ed tied the knot at the same venue we had chosen. We knew then that if anyone could capture the serene beauty of the grounds and the space, it would be them.

During the months before my wedding, Jess was really helpful. She always responded promptly to questions, was open to any suggestions, and was very thorough in her emails and correspondence. When our wedding day arrived, Jess and Ed were fantastic!!! They were prompt, sincere, and professional. Their attention to detail was impeccable! They both made us feel comfortable, made our day flow smoothly, and were so much fun to work with.

After reviewing our wedding photos, my husband and I both remarked that our expectations had been far exceeded. Jess and Ed truly captured all of the emotions of our day with perfection- you can both see and feel the pure joy, love, and happiness we felt that day. Many of our guests have commented on the amazing quality of the photos and how truly beautiful they are. I agree 110%! My husband and I are extremely happy that Jess and Ed were able to capture our memories. We highly recommend that you choose Jessica Painter Photography to be a part of your special day as well! :)

We are SO happy we were able to have Jessica Painter Photography as our wedding photographer. Jessica and her husband, Ed, are such sweet people and care so much about each one of their projects. They really put their hearts into their work and it shows. I can't say enough about how great they were to work with. Fun and energetic, with great ideas for unique shots. Both our engagement photos and wedding photos are incredible and somehow just between the two of them they were able to capture every moment and every detail. Deciding on a wedding photographer was the most agonizing decision for us and we are just so thankful we chose Jessica Painter Photography. There is so much to do when planning a wedding, so stop wasting time googling reviews on wedding photographers and just email Jessica! You will not be disappointed. :)

Jessica Painter Photography's reply:

Thank you so much for this amazing review!
We had such a great time being a part of your day and getting to know you from the beginning. You two are a great couple and we enjoyed working with you both!

Let me start by saying that I NEVER write reviews. Jessica and Ed were SO good that I almost feel obligated to share. :)

When my husband and I started to shop around for photographers, we were astounded by the prices. Fortunately, I stumbled upon Jessica's wedding wire reviews and saw her phenomenal work. We scheduled an initial meet and greet and the rest was history! It was so important to me that we find a photographer that was both talented and easy going. Jessica and Ed were all that and more. They were fun, beyond professional, and managed to capture every special moment. Needless to say, we are thrilled with the finish product. I should also add that Jessica is extremely responsive. We worked with some vendors who could take up to a week to respond to inquiries, which was fine, but Jessica would often respond with answers to my questions and more within hours. I could go on and on, but in summary, the value of the product that Jessica Painter Photographer provides is stellar.

Jessica Painter Photography's reply:

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review, especially since you never write them. It means even more to us knowing that!! It is so appreciated!!!!!

LOVE Jessica and Ed! Their pictures capture every emotion of the day, and tell such a story that I do not regret my decision to not have a videographer. I don't think I remember seeing them in action once during the non-posed pictures, and yet the photos are of such high quality! They are also great people to work with, and were always open to what we had in mind. As my family and I have said multiple times after seeing the results - "Worth every penny!". Thank you so much!!

Thank you so much Jenn!

Jessica and Ed are absolutely fantastic. Not only is their work beautiful but they are amazing people. We did our engagement photos with them as well and they are just as beautiful! We get compliments on all of our pictures. Everyone of our guests I have talked to since our wedding continually say how much they loved our photographers. Everyone wishes they lived closer to them and so do we!

Jessica Painter Photography is amazing. Jessica and Ed were so professional, kind, and totally open to our ideas. They did a fantastic job capturing our day, and did a great job of including every important moment and detail. They go above and beyond to provide quality, flexibility, and ensure that clients are happy. They're genuinely nice people who we enjoyed getting to know. They are creative, not only in their photographs, but also in giving clients innovative ways to display their memories, from their blog to the app, and everything in between. My husband and I would recommend JPP to any and everyone without hesitation!

Jessica Painter Photography's reply:

Lynn,
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! Your day was as amazing as the two of you! We had such a blast!
We truly appreciate you allowing us to share in your day. Thank you for trusting us to capture such a special occasion! All the best to you and Ben!

From the very beginning of our planning, starting at the e-mail for pricing information, Jess and Ed have been super helpful, prompt and enjoyable to work with. They are both outgoing, fun, flexible photographers, not to mention AMAZING!!! Photography was one of the most crucial aspects of planning for us and we researched and really did our homework, but that all stopped when we met with Jessica Painter Photography. They put all of our (mine, really) worries, stress and anxiety about our big day to ease. We only had to meet with them once to know that they were the perfect fit for us to capture our special day. When we got together for our Engagement session, it was a thousand degrees with 110% humidity and yet they were still upbeat, energetic and fun- we had a great time with them despite the heat! We talked a few times before the day of the Wedding to go over the details, and let me tell you, Jess was quick to respond, helpful and so detailed oriented (which was perfect for my OCD-self)! On the day of, they were at our house early, ready to go...they were happy, fun and our entire bridal party (18 total) LOVED them! Not only are Jess and Ed amazing people, but the photographs that they produced...wow, were unbelievebale. We are so happy with all of our photos as well as super excited about the APP that they provide with 30 favorites that we can share! They really just made our day go smooth and stress-free! I would recommend them to ANYONE who wants phenomenal photos with photographers who focus on every detail and aspect of the day...including large families who have lots of requests!!

Jessica Painter Photography's reply:

Ashley,
Thank you so much for this amazing review!! Ed and I loved sharing in your day. Both you and Paolo, your families and the bridal party were so fun to work with! All the best to the both of you!

WHAT AN AMAZING VENDOR! Jessica Painter Photography (Jessica and Ed) are by far the best in the business. We talked with a lot of photographers around the Capital Region area, and we feel so honored and privileged to have had Jessica Painter Photography be a part of our day. First off, our wedding day was Jessica's Birthday, and she could have said they were unavailable, but she DIDN'T. That's true selflessness right there. Throughout the process, Jessica Painter Photography was as professional as you get. They answers phone calls/emails/messages quickly and is always attentive. They are flexible, creative, and encourage couples to voice what they are looking for with photos. Both our engagement photos and actual wedding photos exceeded our expectations. Jessica Painter Photography goes above and beyond to make sure that they get the shot. I can think of multiple occasions where they did everything they could to make sure they got "just the right photo". Ed even stood on a soaking wet railing two stories in the air to get a shot of us in front of the water. Jessica Painter Photography blows everyone else away, honestly, and this is due to their creative eyes and amazing professionalism. Thank you guys, we love you both and all of the photos! Best decision ever!!

I give Jessica Painter Photography my absolute highest recommendation! They deserve MORE than five stars! Jessica is SUPER-dooper responsive via e-mail and put my mind at ease each step of the way during the planning process. We also met with Jessica and her husband Ed for coffee early on, and instantly felt comfortable with them. At the wedding, Jessica and Ed were ever-present without being intrusive, offering fun and creative photo ideas (and were extremely open to our ideas!), and worked like troopers. It rained at the end of our reception, and Jessica and Ed suggested getting some cool rainy photos. At one point, my husband and I were standing under a balcony, and Jessica and Ed are maneuvering tons of camera equipment, raincoats, and umbrellas to ensure we got the perfect photo. They go above and beyond for each and every couple they work with. They are both super nice people and I recommend them 100%. Oh, and did I mention their photographs are beautiful?! Jessica and Ed are the BEST.

Words can’t even begin to describe how amazing Jessica and her husband Ed are! They did both our engagement and wedding pictures and they came out beautiful! I knew from the first phone conversation I had with Jess that I wanted her to be our photographer, she is one of those people that you immediately feel comfortable around, which is definitely important for getting natural looking pictures. Jess and Ed allowed us to be at ease every time we were with them, and on top of that they are so much fun that we had a lot of laughter in our shots. They know how to work every angle to get the best photograph and will go above and beyond to get incredible pictures. There were multiple points during our wedding where they were standing on chairs and moving around the room to capture the perfect image. We have gotten so many compliments on both our engagement and wedding pictures; our friends and family can’t believe how great they turned out. Beyond the photography, they are a dream to work with. They helped us in all aspects of wedding planning, from recommending other vendors to managing the time table on our big day, to giving general advice. My husband and I live out of town and they were incredible about working around our travel schedule to set up our engagement pictures and meetings, and even drove out to my parents house to do so. I would recommend them without a doubt to anyone looking for a photographer.

Jessica and Ed were absolutely fantastic to work with! So easygoing, so sweet, and an amazing ability to make you feel completely at ease in front of the camera! They also were ever-present, but not in any way intrusive-- every time we wanted a picture with someone, we'd turn around and one of them would be there, ready with the camera. They were amazing, and we have loved all the pictures we've seen so far-- and can't wait to see the rest!
