I had a fantastic experience working with J. Raphael Photography on two occasions.
On the first occasion, I was looking for a photographer to take professional pictures that could be used for my business. I sent him a message late on Friday night to inquire about his availability and he responded within 30 minutes. I showed up for the shoot and J. Raphael was courteous, professional, and asked several questions to make sure he could exceed my expectations. J. Raphael did just that. I immediately felt at ease. He is a magician with a camera. I was so impressed with his work that I scheduled another session for holiday photos before I left my first session. It was also important to note that I needed the final edited products within three days for me to be included in a publication. J. Raphael reassured me that he would meet that timeline and he did. The final images were stunning and to this day, I am still getting compliments on those pictures.
On the second occasion, I took my entire family, including my parents and two toddlers for an outdoor photoshoot. He made several suggestions about good locations for us to take outdoor pictures. He showed up on time and with his equipment and took hundreds of pictures. He was very patient because as you can imagine, getting toddlers to remain still and focused for an entire session was daunting. He took breaks as needed and we did not feel rushed even though we know we were in one of his busiest seasons. On the ride back, my dad who is older said that "I like that guy. He is good." That is a sentiment that I share. I wholeheartedly endorse J. Raphel as a top-notch photographer and as a wonderful person to work with!
