I can't say enough about how great it was working with John Schlia Photography. At the time we…read morebegan wedding planning, my wife and I were in the midst of buying a house and working on our respective dissertations, so we had a lot going on, but John was always super responsive, organized, and willing to accommodate our crazy schedules! He often did little things -- like getting us a Java's gift card and encouraging us to use it to relax and take a break from wedding planning -- to show that he appreciated all that we were dealing with...and that he was there to support us however he could. As for the photography itself, John shot both of our engagement sessions as well as our ceremony and reception (which was at Artisanworks). His photography truly captured every aspect of our day and we could not be happier to select John for such an important occasion. Highly recommend!

Michael was super professional. His pricing packages vary from economical to the works…read more His pictures are fantastic!! My husband and I are still getting compliments on the photo we chose as our thank you card. (See below) I like how he sits you down to discuss your wedding vision. Then he asks you whats important to make sure he captures. I asked for him to get lots of photos of my mom with her family and siblings specifically since she was fighting cancer. We're glad he asked and we're glad he delivered! Make sure Michael is on your list for interviews when your checking out your photography options. You won't regret it!!

Emily was an inspiration!…read more My fiancé Kyle and I were unsure of what to expect from our engagement shoot, but it was a walk in the park! We went to a spot of Emily's choice... and it couldn't have been more true to what we were hoping for. A little opening of water with large rocks nestled by the side of a simple walking path. By the water, she guided us with a few positions and then the rest came naturally. Afterwards we went on a stroll to a few different areas to play in, which brought us to a forested spot. It was a great experience, full of playfulness and ease. You couldn't ask for a more comfortable person to be with to capture your bond with the person you'll be spending your life with. Kyle and I are forever grateful to Emi. She truly created a comfortable environment which brought out our genuine nature and captured our story that will be treasured for a lifetime.

I heard good things about One Sharp Joe and decided to give them a go--and I'm so glad that I did. I am not particularly keen on having my picture taken but from the very start, Joe made me feel very much at ease on the other side of the lens. He has a way of quickly building rapport and trust as he draws you into the posing process. I am no professional model, but he made me feel like one. The end result was even better than I had hoped and I really couldn't be happier with the final shots. If you are looking for a portrait that rises far above the mundane, you would do well to give One Sharp Joe a try. Highly recommended!
