“Highly, highly recommend JR! From the very beginning, he was a dream to work with. We originally connected through social media, and he was so easy to communicate with and incredibly responsive. With my fiancé’s crazy baseball schedule and my own demanding work/travel calendar, we weren’t sure how we’d find time for engagement photos—but JR made it happen.

He went above and beyond to accommodate our limited availability, squeezing us in during a narrow timeframe and even bringing all the props we needed for the shoot. He showed up prepared, calm, and totally patient, which helped us feel relaxed and natural in front of the camera (not always easy!).

JR’s energy is contagious—he’s super outgoing, professional, and made the entire experience genuinely fun. We felt so comfortable the whole time, and the photos turned out better than we ever imagined.

If you’re looking for someone who is flexible, kind, creative, and truly easy to work with, JR is your guy. We are so grateful!”

“We had the absolute pleasure of working with JR for our engagement shoot, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience and the results! From the very beginning, JR made us feel so comfortable and at ease, which truly shows in the photos. He has an incredible eye for detail and captured our love and personalities so beautifully. Whether it was finding the perfect lighting, suggesting creative poses, or encouraging us to just be ourselves, he guided us seamlessly while still letting us have fun- he even let us include our dog in a few pics! The final photos were beyond anything we could have imagined. JR perfectly preserved this special moment in our lives, and we’ll treasure these photos forever.”

“Working with JR to get our family photos done was a great experience. He communicated well and was very efficient throughout the whole process. We have a baby so it was so helpful that he made our session quick, while still getting so many great photos. I really enjoyed getting to see all the photos soon after and choosing my favorite ones, something that many photographers don’t offer. I would definitely recommend JR to anyone looking to get family photos!”

“We couldn't be happier with our engagement photography experience with JR! From the very beginning, he was so easy to work with and made the entire process feel natural and stress-free. Neither of us are used to being in front of the camera, and JR was so mindful of that. He gave us helpful guidance and creative suggestions for posing, which made us feel comfortable and confident. What truly stood out was JR’s incredible vision. He had an amazing ability to understand what we wanted while also bringing his own unique ideas to the table. The final collection of engagement photos turned out absolutely stunning—better than we could have imagined! If you're looking for a photographer who is professional, talented, and genuinely cares about making your photos special, we wholeheartedly recommend JR. Thank you for capturing such a meaningful time in our lives so beautifully!”

“JR was a pleasure to work with. He was very prepared and helpful throughout the entire process. The photo shoot was quick, smooth, and easy; which was amazing since our 4 year old was involved. We got our photos back in just a few days and ended up getting so many that we loved and will cherish forever. Looking forward to working with him again in the near future!”

“JR could not have captured our engagement better! His vision and experience was very evident when we scoped out the location in advance of the surprise proposal. We tested out various angles and he helped me plan every last detail to ensure we got the best photos possible. Couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to capture such a special moment!”

“We cannot recommend JR enough! From start to finish, the entire experience was amazing. He was very organized and prepared an outline of ideas and suggestions that perfectly aligned with the vision we shared with him. He planned our entire day to ensure it was as efficient as possible, making sure we hit every location. What really stood out to us was how he brought our vision to life while having a fun day. His professionalism and his creativity made our engagement shoot so memorable. Every shot captured the emotion and excitement we wanted, and we had such a great time throughout the process.”

“Working with JR is such a breeze! He comes fully prepared, focused, and with the best energy, ready to roll! He did our 1st family shoot and we couldn’t be happier!”

“JR was absolutely incredible to work with. We had a zoom call before our event, and we immediately felt comfortable and at ease. JR arrived early, was great with all of our guests, and the photos were just perfect. We received images earlier than we expected, and we were so happy with the results.”

“JR’s communication and ability to be flexible were top notch. He provided us with locations that he thought were fitting to what we were asking for. He also took lead on the style of photos that were taken and did a wonderful job of editing and getting the photos to us in a timely manner. His approach really allowed us to feel a part of the editing process and we were beyond happy with the results! His quality of work and guidance exceeded our expectations. Overall made the shoot so much fun and the pictures came out stunning!”

“JR is the best!! My husband and I don’t like taking pictures but during our family shoot JR made us feel incredibly comfortable the entire time! What I love most about his work is how natural we look in the pictures and how he captures the special moments. I highly recommend hiring for any occasion!!”

“My family and I had our pictures taken with JR this spring. We had such a great time with JR, not only is he crazy talented he’s also very nice and makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera. He got our photos back to us faster than any other photographer I’ve worked with, it was so appreciated. The pictures are something that I’ll treasure forever. He did such an amazing job and I can’t recommend him enough!”

“JR did an amazing job with our family photos! They blew me away. He was so professional, intentional, and had a great attention to detail. We will definitely be using him again in the future for more family photos!”

“JR over delivered! He not only captured the most memorable moment for my now Fiancé and I in the best way, he took the time to meet me a few weeks prior to walk through the exact plan. A lot goes into planning a proposal and JR’s attention to detail made such a big pressure moment that much simpler. Furthermore, the timeliness of receiving the photos and the edits made were unmatched. We will cherish these forever!”

“JR was such a pleasure to work with. We communicated back and forth for weeks, bouncing ideas off one another and he was genuinely invested in the ideas and vibes we wanted for our shoot. Despite him being out of state, we never felt like we couldn’t reach him. His responses were always prompt and thoughtful. On the day of, he had a great energy to him and it made it really, really organic and easy to take photos which sometimes can be tough in a non-organic environment. Following the shoot, he sent us sneak peeks within 24 hours and a link to ALL of our photos within just a few days. The process from there was nothing but smooth and he made sure every photo we liked was edited just the way we wanted, even if it took multiple rounds of editing. We can’t wait to shoot with him again because it was that enjoyable of an experience and couldn’t recommend him enough!”
