He listened to us, got all the shots, knew where the light was and got our gallery to us in record time. His style is a perfect mix of posed and photojournalistic and he was very helpful in putting us in a place where the pictures would come out well. Really, a lovely person and a lovely photographer, I feel like we got very lucky that he was the one to document our wedding!

We did not get to meet Kasie and Patrick in person until our wedding weekend, though we interviewed…read morethem on zoom due to being from San Diego and not the SLO area. We immediately got a sense of warmth and charisma from the power couple. :) There are countless things that I can say about them but I'll say my top which I think may be of service to others who are scouting for their photographer/videographer: -Kasie and Patrick are extremely in sync. They tell it like it is in a very tactful and get-down-to-business way. When you're up against the clock, and you don't have a lot of time to be indecisive .. they can help you make sound decisions, as they are experts at their craft. Our hotel venue could not let us know where we could have a moment for the first look, but they scouted out the best spot right away. -great communication. Most of our wedding guests complimented how nice they were and how efficient and quick they were. -on my wedding day there were countless moments of stress that I could never in a million years foresee (I tried to plan for things so it'd be smooth sailing day-of) and they were like so nice to me when I felt my head was going to explode with anxiety. One of my favorite moments of the day they probably don't remember, but it was when Kasie and I were in the elevator before the first look and she was just so empathetic and kind to listen to me vent about how I felt in over my head with having such a big bridal party (who were a hand full to say in the least!) .. and also Patrick helping me put on my high heel shoes again when I took them off since they were killing my feet. 1000% would seek their services again if I'm in the area again to visit, or in town for a family reunion. Thank you for making a significant impact on our lives!!

That said, I was already very familiar with his award-winning work when I discovered that Jayson has since gone on to develop his own successful wedding photography business. To put it succinctly, Jayson's work is stunning. Jayson's decades of experience in photo journalism really shine through his wedding work with documentary-style photography that captures the defining landmarks and the smaller moments and details of the day. Wife and sidekick Robin handles the photography details, but she also helps the day go smoothly by helping with last-minute wedding details. Second photographer Jay - whom I also worked with at the Tribune, also has an excellent eye and captured many delightful moments of our wedding day. All three are very personable and easy to work with. Jayson and his team take their work to a level that exceeds expectations, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

They set up a 'photo booth' area and all of my guests loved it. We have wonderful, beautiful pictures from our special day and overjoyed with the outcome.

He showed up to the rehearsal to scope out the site and see where he needed to set up. He was able to mic our officiant so all the guests could hear everything, but still use his hands (instead of holding a mic). He and our photographer Amy from Amy Wellenkamp Photographers have worked together on many events and it was clear they knew how to capture what we wanted, and how to help the other capture something. I'm so excited to see what our video shows. I always felt comfortable and "me." He, nor Amy, ever asked us to do something that didn't feel genuine or out of character and I really like that. Thanks again, Ryan.
