A little love from some of the couples and families I've had the opportunity to photograph.

The best eye for every moment.
10/10 can't recommend JR enough! We did an untraditional 4-night boat trip around the Caribbean and JR was there every step of the way. Digital, film, and Super 8 - every picture and every video was amazing. He has the best eye for every moment. We'd plan the whole wedding all over again just to have JR shoot it!

Part of the editing process.
JR's communication and flexibility were top notch. His approach let us feel like we were part of the editing process, and the quality of his work and guidance throughout exceeded every expectation we had. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Sneak peeks in 24 hours.
JR was incredible from start to finish. He sent us sneak peeks within 24 hours and a link to ALL of our photos within days, editing every single one just the way we wanted. He made the whole day feel easy and fun. Couldn't recommend him enough!
