Jack has been such a wonderful photographer for all of our family milestones! He did our engagement photos in 2019, weddingphotos in 2021, and newborn photos when we welcomed our daughter in 2023. He has a great eye and a wealth of experience in portrait work, event work, and has great insights from working in product photography, too.
We appreciate his helpful direction, punctuality, and reasonable pricing. 10/10 recommend!

Jack is an excellent photographer! He's a professional who is comfortable interacting with guests, enthusiastic about the work ahead and flexible with transitioning between taking direction and working autonomously as needed. He was very quick to get some early photos back to us that we could use in our post-event thank yous, and he captured so many wonderful moments from the event. He was a quick and responsive communicator, and was very thoughtful when discussing the 'plan' we had in mind. I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for an eventphotographer!

It was a pleasure to have Jack photograph our engagement. He was masterful when setting up shots, and he really put us at ease. He knew the area ahead of time and had multiple sites already selected for us to pose in. The photos are beautiful! We are so happy with everything!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
All quoted prices include: Continuous photographic coverage for the amount of hours needed. Hi-resolution JPEG files with print release (no water markings). Retouching & editing on all images. A private online photo gallery to share with friends and family. Travel & tax.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
• I prefer to start with a phone call to introduce myself, to assess your needs & expectations and to gather necessary info about the wedding/event/session.
• After our initial conversation I will send a follow-up email that outlines your request - this email will also include a formal price quote and contract.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I truly believe an artistic eye and creativity cannot be taught in a classroom. I am proud to say I am totally self taught. I do hope my images speak for themselves.
