Where do I begin *sighhh*
I’ve never been happier with the results of my photoshoot. I had originally booked my buddy Joe @ Joe Stein Photography, and we were so ready for this post wedding photoshoot session at The Bellevue Conference & Event Center. Unfortunately, on the day of he tested positive for Covid and I had only few hours to find someone as good as him to do the shoot. I went back to the original place where I initially found Joe two years ago, Thumbtack, and fingers crossed I’d find someone in time. I’m so overjoyed that I found Eighty_Eight Images!! Jamella was an angel who came to my rescue and fulfilled my wildest dreams haha. On a serious note though, she really came through last minute. I told her exactly my vision and how I love black & white photos. She said that’s her specialty and thus really went above and beyond. I mean just look at these photos, it’s truly a work of art!! Definitely definitely recommend her. Not only is she sweet professional and creative, her pricing is fair too. Thank you so much chica for creating magical memories for the hubby and I. Next time we’re in VA and need a photographer I know just who to call 😉💖🙌🏼

I absolutely LOVE Jamella and her amazing work! She was professional, highly responsive, punctual, creative, talented, and patient with everything we threw at her (baby and 2 dogs)! She has such a good eye and the photos turned out so great! I highly recommend booking Jamella to capture memories of a lifetime!

I hired J.Maria Photography for a birthday photoshoot for my sister and she did an amazing job! My sister had the best time shooting with her and has already started thinking about family pictures to shoot with J. Maria. We would 100% recommend her to anyone thinking about using her as a photographer!

Jamella was super responsive, willing to take photos at several locations, and helped me get the headshots I needed. I would work with her again and recommend that others also work with her!

FAQs
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I picked up photography in college as a hobby when I moved to Arizona from the east coast. Recording memories of my new life was something I needed to do as an outlet. Years later I found joy in capturing memories for others.. not just myself.
