We booked Jim about 9 months before our April wedding after seeing photos from another wedding we attended as guests. We immediately loved how natural everything looked. The photos felt candid and real instead of overly posed or staged, and we found out Jim was the photographer. That ended up being exactly our experience too. My husband and I are both pretty awkward in front of a camera and really did not want to spend the entire day posing, but Jim was somehow able to get amazing photos while still letting everything feel relaxed and natural. Nothing felt forced. He was also super flexible with what we wanted while still being really organized about family photos and any specific shots we cared about. The whole process felt very easy and low stress. Also, the turnaround time was insanely fast. We got our previews and full gallery back way quicker than we expected. Not sure if we just got lucky being earlier in wedding season lol, but it was such a nice surprise right after the wedding. Highly highly recommend Jim to anyone, especially if you want wedding photos that actually feel like you and not a 10-hour photoshoot. read more

My wife and I were browsing IG during wedding planning when we saw Jim's photos of another wedding at our selected venue. Viewing those pictures, my wife and I just loved the angles and composition of Jim's photos and knew that Jim would be hard to beat. Something I didn't realize before I got married was how much time you spend with your photographer on your wedding day. I think I probably spend more time with them than I did with my actual wife and groomsmen. Having say that, I was glad that Jim and Ryan were my photographers. They were really cool, funny guys to chat with throughout the wedding and you can tell they were passionate about getting the best photos they can get out of my wife and me. I appreciate they were always want to try out new poses, new angles, and new props so that the pictures stand out. Jim was also a great photographer for our families as he knows Chinese and was able to give out great instructions even to my family members who didn't speak the best English. It was pretty funny too when we weren't quite sure what we were doing during the Chinese tea ceremony and Jim was able to step in and give us some instructions. We got our wedding photos a month after our wedding date and we were not disappointed. Jim's selection of curated photos that he touched up were all amazing and were all worthy to be set as wallpapers on our phones. They were simply more interesting to look than most typical wedding photos we've seen elsewhere. And honestly, even the rest of the photos that weren't touch up or part of the curated batch were amazing to look at. read more

Jim is an amazing and talented photographer. I couldn't take my eyes off his work the first time I came across his Instagram. Seeing the photos he took, I feel like I could experience the emotions and stories as if I were there. Jim is kind and easy to work with. He is responsive to all different kinds of questions, and provides good suggestions on the locations, gowns, and everything. He knows the city hall inside out and all the great locations for photoshoot. But what is special about Jim is that he can leverage the spontaneous ingredients at the scene to create unique works just for you. If you are looking for a photographer for your once-in-a-lifetime moments, look no further. You won't regret! read more

Jim Lee Vision - Event Photography Near Me

10/7/2021 - Lilian & Johnson, Engagement/Pre-wedding photoshoot, New York My husband and I have reviewed at least 8 other portfolios before coming across Jim's. I literally shed a tear and felt the butterflies in my stomach as I scrolled through Jim's gallery. Not only are Jim's photos timeless and authentic, but each of his portfolio truly tells a story behind every couple's smiles. It's like you can really feel their happiness through their pictures! His packages are very competitive and affordable, and it was within our budget. We knew right away, there was no need to look any further; Jim was the one. Jim is super responsive, and that makes the booking process that much easier for us. After only one virtual call, we immediately signed the contract with him on the next business day. Unlike other photographers, Jim asked about us individually and as a couple. What are our hobbies? What do we like to do together? It was like telling a friend about myself, and what it took to become "us" today. To be honest, we did not even think of reading Jim's reviews, because we felt like we loved him already! We did not read any of his reviews until after getting our photos. And we had no idea that everyone else loved him as much as we do! There aren't any reviews that are less than 5 stars, and that is how you know, just how phenomenal Jim is. (It feels so good to know that we are not the only ones who are head over heels about him!) It was such a pleasant pace when shooting with Jim. We did not feel like we were rushed at all, even though there was a time limit. He covered many angles without staging us, capturing just how we really each, and that really shows in our pictures! We were so stressed about not knowing how to take candid photos. However, with Jim's help, and trust me when I say this, you'd have nothing to worry about. His persistence in perfection shows in every aspect. It was towards the end of the day; my fiancé and I were already getting so tired. I was going to take the easy way out, by wearing my ugly flats instead of my white heels, (thinking the wedding dress would cover those flats anyways.) "Didn't you have another pair of shoes?!", Jim insisted. He notices details as little as what shoes I was to wear, to make our pictures great, and we could not be any happier with them! He has eyes on things that others do not, and he never fails to capture our moments, capture us. In just 3 days after our photoshoot, we were screaming in excitement when Jim sent us some sneak peaks. And silly us, thought that the "sneak peaks" were already the final products because they were so close to perfect that we did not even think photoshop was needed. We were super ecstatic when the pictures were ready to be viewed in our gallery, especially when the turnover time was delivered as promised! Everyone else loved the album as much as we did. And most importantly, they love us in them! What we love about Jim: Not only does Jim bring passion and skills to his work, but he is such a sweetheart with patience and a sense of humor! He has made our photoshoot such a memorable experience, since we have never been this intimate in public before! He's highly responsive (unlike us, always making him wait), accountable, and professional. (Professional is an understatement). He's an artist, a cook, a magician, a tour guide, and perhaps, a friend. Notes: If you're aiming to have photos to wow your family and friends, then look no further! Book Jim and you'll have no regrets! He is one of our best purchases throughout our wedding planning. read more

Tldr; Jim is an amazing artist, photographer and person in general! Professional, dedicated and great at communication. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a unique and custom to you photoshoot as he takes in the details of your story, combines it with his amazing vision (and your preferences!) and truly creates works of art in the form of photos Our Details: Occasion: engagement photoshoot Length: 8 hr shoot Location: SoCal Participants: fiance, me and our two dogs! His details/our experience: Communication: before the shoot Jim and I exchanged countless emails since I tend to ask a lot of questions. He answered each and every one of them in a timely manner and provided great advice which clearly demonstrated his level of experience and passion for his work. I greatly appreciated this and felt more at ease and never like an inconvenience as some vendors may tend to get frustrated or short with lots of questions. Planning: He took the time to ask us what we like to do, then he crafted a beautiful day / idea that we could work off of. My fiance and I tweaked small details here n there and selected 3out of the 4 locations we went to. Then day of we were even able to squeeze in on extra location based on Jim's recommendation which we LOVED. Promptness: Jim started our shoot right on time and worked hard til we were done! First timers: my fiance and I had never done a photoshoot before, but Jim gave us the advice we needed and let us feel comfortable in a way that I loved how it showed up on camera. I'll be honest not ever shot was perfect, but there are countless that I truly loved. I'm so glad we had the time to work with Jim. We also booked him for our wedding, I'll write on that when we get the photos! read more

Jim is a very artistic photographer with very warm demeanor. We love how he captured all the memorable moments realistically but also artistically in our wedding. The photos he took for our wedding wowed everyone: both of us, our family, and friends. We would definitely love to work with him again in future! read more

Jim photographed our engagement photos in SF and we couldn't be happier with them. We are not great at posing or taking photos as a couple and Jim was always happy to give prompts and guide us in how to be comfortable in front of the camera! He was always quick to respond to any questions we had throughout the process. Would highly recommend him as a photographer and would gladly work with him again! read more

Jim Lee took our wedding day photos for us. We were worried since he hadn't taken photos at our venue before (Summit House) and some spots for taking photos are hard to find. Jim Lee came to the venue the day before the wedding and scouted out the best spots. The day of the wedding, he handled everything: telling us where to go, how to pose, and was conscious of our timeline The reception had pretty dim yellow lighting - Jim Lee had some extremely bright lights that really made the photographs come out extra beautiful. When we received the photos, we were amazed! There is so much character and style. The photos are absolutely incredible. The day of the wedding was dreary, cloudy, and very grey (it rained too)- and the photos end up with beautiful clouds and colors. Many people told us our photos are edited really well! Many of the photos came out looking like paintings. He isn't just an incredible photographer, but also incredible at photoshop/editing. He captured the special moments - when we were walking between spots, the florists setting up the arch, a perfect shot of the flowers leaving the hands of the flower boy, when a bicyclist photo bombed us - he turned the moment into an incredible photo. Jim Lee's photos and style is god tier! Beyond all expectations! Highly highly recommend! read more

Jim did our engagement and wedding day photo. When I was doing research for a photographer, Jim style stood out immediately among all the other photographers. We did our engagement photo at the SF city hall & half moon Bay Area. I love how the photos turned out so artistic and beautiful. Jim instructions of how we pose and interact with each other were clear, make it super simple for us, even for my partner who is definitely not used to being photographed. What makes Jim's style unique is his ability to story-tell through his lens, he is great at capturing those little moments between the partners and showing our personalities. The wedding day photo also turns out stunning. For a once a life time memory, you will definitely want to go with someone who you are confidence about, and Jim is that guy who won't disappoint! read more

Jim and his team is beyond excellent. He knows my wedding has a lots of detail he make sure to hire enough people to capture my day. We feel like celebrities and follow by paparazzi the whole day. lol I like the way he captured the pick up the bride, door game. A lots of other photographers just took whatever photos, and it looked super messy, but the way he took them are super artsy and story telling. He always can find a unique angle and puts his creative thought in it. As someone in the same industry and a picky person, I couldn't be more happy about the pictures. I couldn't image hiring someone else for my wedding day. read more

We found Jim through a recommendation from a friend who has an eye for good photography, so we knew we were in the right hands when we hired Jim to be our photographer. In fact, Jim was the FIRST vendor that we signed a contract with about 1.5 years ahead of the wedding because we were so excited to work with him. And boy, we were not wrong! Jim's artistic eye and his professionalism really made our wedding special. Jim and his second shooter, Ryan, captured all of our emotions so well that when we look at the photos, we can actually feel what we felt during that moment at the wedding. And that takes a lot of skills! We are so impressed with them and are very happy about how the photos turned out. We would highly highly recommend Jim Lee Visión to those who are looking for a high quality wedding photographer! read more

Jim Lee is a professional and a visionary. While searching for a photographer for our wedding, it was important for us to find someone who was more than just a person snapping shots. We wanted someone with an eye for photography, a true artist. After seeing some of Jim Lee's work, we were instantly sold. We booked him for our wedding in April 2017 and also decided to do an Engagement Photo Shoot July 2016. Jim made us feel very comfortable and natural. He gave great direction while preserving the genuine moments between the two of us. He is creative and definitely knows what he is doing. When we got the engagement photos back we were in complete awe. Usually I'm lucky to find a few photos taken that I actually like. In this case, when we were asked to pick a few of our favorites, it was just about the hardest thing we had to do! We loved all of them. Our wedding was no different. He made everyone feel comfortable and captured some of the most beautiful photos. We now have twins, 1.5 years old and I'm excited to share all these special moments with them one day when they're old enough to understand. Jim is a true talent. He is an artist. I would recommend him to anyone looking to capture these big life events. You will look back on these photos for years to come with a smile on your face. Thanks so much, Jim! read more

Jim is amazing!! We had an engagement photo shoot with him and the results were beyond perfect He is very professional and I appreciate him taking photos for us with our cats! It wasn't easy but he did a wonderful job! One more thing is that Jim was able to deliver the photos really fast after the shoot, which was very impressive. Highly recommend to anyone who's looking for a wedding or engagement photographer read more

Jim is truly a gem of a photographer. I absolutely love his composition, tones, and the emotions captured in his photos. I'm so glad that Jim was able to document our wedding. Before the wedding, he patiently answered all our questions and eased our anxieties. During the wedding, he guided us with posing, brought out our best sides, and captured every moment. I highly recommend Jim. read more

Jim Lee and his team are true professionals. I was referred to him through my florist Shus Flowers. I immediately loved the feel of his work that I saw on his website. Lots of creativity and fun! Our scheduling worked out and he was able to do my wedding date. Jim recommended my makeup artist Coco whom he works with often. I showed Jim who I wanted to use for makeup but he said Coco might be a better fit for a more soft, natural wedding glow. The original makeup artist I had in mind was more for high fashion so might come off more harsh. So Jim and his team really consider all the details. So less than 6 weeks after my wedding our pictures were ready. Originally, I was given a slightly longer lead time, but it's always better to be pleasantly surprised. My husband and I and all our family and friends love how the pictures turned out. It was really important that the pictures captured the emotions of everyone there. Jim and his team did exactly that perfectly. Also, I'm not the skinniest bride but I feel like I look beautiful in the pictures. :) My brother is getting married 2 months after my wedding, so now we are literally a few weeks out from my brother's wedding. My future sister in law loved our pictures by Jim so much she booked her wedding photos with Jim and cancelled her original photographer -- basically last minute. Jim thanked me for the referral but I just said his work speaks for itself. I can't think of a bigger compliment as a professional artist than someone changing their major wedding vendor last minute just to get the best! read more

Jim is a great photographer and artist. I had Jim for my engagement photo and wedding photo. He is not just taking the perfect pictures, but also in the pictures he took, he told our story. Every photo I look back, I had a smile on my face. They captured the most precious moment of our life. He is very professional at his job. He made sure to give us honest advice on what is best for the photoshoot in terms of shooting time, outfits, makeup... etc. I think this is the best purchase of my whole wedding planning. His photos are magic. My husband and I are in love with them. So do my family and friends. He made everything so easy and smooth. I enjoyed working with him so much. read more

Jim Lee Vision - Event Photography Near Me

We hired Jim for our Covid-friendly microwedding. I do some travel and portrait photography of my own so to-say-the-least I'm quite particular on the kind of photographer I wanted. I believe that anyone can pick up a professional camera and learn editing but I think it takes a certain visual eye to frame and shoot in a way that is aesthetically pleasing. Jim is artistic and creative. His photos were candid (not stiff and "posy") and really captured the essence and emotions of certain moments, a few of which I hardly recalled until I saw the photos. Jim's style of shooting is natural and relaxed, but at the same time he can also direct you according to his "vision". Prior to our special day, Jim was prompt with email communications. On the day of, Jim and his assistant Siliang were friendly and made us feel relaxed and at ease. We really enjoyed the day with them and treasure the memory and the photos we now have to remember the special day. Highly recommend that you hire Jim for your life's special moments! read more

We had a great experience shooting with Jim. He's very responsive during the booking process, and we came up with a game plan together, and he also also turned around our photos very quickly! Me and my fiance aren't very good at posing but Jim made sure we were comfortable and being ourselves, so the process wasn't awkward at all, and the photos came out great! So we would definitely recommend Jim to any other couple who have any photography needs :) read more

Jim and his team do great work! He was the photographer for our wedding and reception and we could not be happier with the pictures he got of our weekend. He was very easy to work with and very accommodating. We had an Indian-style ceremony and an American reception on separate days and he captured both beautifully, utilizing interesting candid moments of us with family and friends as well as coordinated shots of us both inside and outside the venue. Thanks for the wonderful photos Jim! read more

Jim has done an impressive job for our photo session. He showed up on time and managed to discover multiple interesting photo spots as we advance through the day. He is very friendly and accommodating, even extending our session a bit to capture the sunset and afterglow. We are really pleased with his work and would work with him again. read more

My wife and I were searching for a wedding photographer online before our big day. We reviewed 7-8 portfolios, and when we saw Jim's, we were immediately attracted to his unique ways of storytelling and capturing spur-of-the-moment emotions. My wife said when she saw the couples' laughter in Jim's photos, she could feel their happiness through his lenses. Jim's package prices are very competitive and he made travel arrangements to suit our schedule and needs. We discussed a game plan and a set of wardrobes with Jim's recommendations. We were able to entrust him with all our photography needs while we busied ourselves with other aspects of the wedding. On the wedding day, Jim operated with finesse and precision as he guided us around San Francisco City Hall. We visited typical wedding spots such as Palace of Fine Arts and Baker Beach, and more locally-known locations such as Painted Ladies and Clarion Alley. He went above and beyond and did not show any signs of fatigue during the whole session. He accommodated our requests and insisted on getting the perfect photos. We could see his creative juices at work as he snapped impromptu pictures in front of makeshift scenes and props, such as a parked Volkswagen van, random street art, and off the reflections of a rear view mirror of a scooter. Knowing we couldn't wait to share our happiness with our family and friends, Jim handpicked and sent us pre-edited photos the very evening of the wedding! They were so close to perfect that we didn't even think Photoshop was needed. Jim processed and delivered the final photos in a reasonable timeframe. When we received the wedding photos, we were ecstatic. They were so beautiful and captured each moment perfectly. We really like how professional yet personable he is, which made our wedding day less stressful and more memorable. It makes a huge difference to have a photographer who cares. We would absolutely recommend Jim Lee to anyone looking to forge unforgettable memories on their special day! read more

Before we met Jim, I always had the impression that taking wedding photos would be a very torturous process, but this trip where Jim took our wedding photos was actually very relaxing and enjoyable. There is no need for some strange, pretentious posture, no need to pose stiff and unsuitable for yourself. We were enjoy our day more like a couple traveling and having fun together, and a photographer happened to record this day. We have purchased a 6-hour shooting plan and went to three scenic spots in San Francisco: San Francisco Botanical Garden, City hall, and the third originally planned spot is Golden Gate Bridge, but because of the fog, we gave up the plan and went to the other side of the beach to shoot. This was an amazing experience. With Jim's guidance, we took some super favorite photos at the seaside, as if we were having a casual date. When I look at the photos, I feel they are exactly what I expected. If you like natural and interesting style wedding photos together with a fun experience, look no further than Jim Lee Vision! read more

Jim makes excellent photographs !! We did a nice brief 3 hour session, and the process is very easy and comfortable. He offered great location suggestion, and encourages us to "be ourselves". We got both good photos and memorable experience in photo shooting on our wedding day. Great artist !! read more

We really liked our photos, and Jim did a really good job capturing real human emotions and connection! Jim and his team member were super diligent and attentive on our wedding day, to the point that one of the first few things our family members talked about after the wedding was how much effort and attention they pay to guests to capture their expressions. For example, at one point our nieces ran to the pool to play with water and they instantly ran to capture the moments which were super sweet. Would highly recommend! read more

Jim is the best photographer we have ever met! He is particularly specialized in wedding /pre-wedding photo shoot. What we love most of is his skills in doing portraits, capturing those trivial moments and emotions of us interacting which can present the unique chemistry between us in the pictures. Not every photographers pay such attention to details as Jim. The professionalism starts in the way how he tried to understand our stories, our needs and our preferred style. We both loved the nature and he brought us to many pretty places including the forrest, national park, lake side, farmland and the vineyard. I remember we started early in the morning and ended in the late evening. We really appreciate his patience and enthusiasm. Regardless of the cold weather and long shooting hours (and the hunger as we didn't had enough food on the road ) he made sure we can have all the sceneries from the morning clear sky to the stunning sunset by down. The dinner after that night was so rewarding and fulfilling as we all know we have had a lot of great photos despite the long day! We even did some indoor casual shootings which are so funny and definitely a bonus to our wedding album! So hard to pick as there are too many favorites, but here are some to share our happinesses It was such a wonderful trip and amazing experience shooting with Jim. We are so glad to have Jim and are actually planning to hire Jim again for another set of photos! read more

Exceptional photographer. Very good at using props during the day to capture interesting angles. Even as our time was running out at the end he graciously stayed half an hour longer with his team to capture the start to dancing. His edits are tasteful, but if you stare hard enough at the photos you'll realize how much work he puts into it! Couldn't be happier read more

Jim Lee is an amazing photographer!! The main reason why we chose Jim Lee is because after we browsed around the portfolio from many photographers, we feel that the photos from Jim Lee are more natural compared with others and have his own style with each set of them telling a small story. We booked an eight hour session with him for our wedding day, and we are very satisfied with the overall process and final photo set from him. The communication with Jim Lee had been very smooth and effective. Before the wedding day, he had several calls with us to check with us what kind of style we want the photos to be, and based on our needs, he gave us some recommendations about the actual places for photo shooting, the types of clothing which can best fit the scene, and the estimated time we might spend at each scene, etc. Another fact that made us surprised is that after the wedding days, it only took a few weeks that we received the photos from him, which is ahead of the estimated schedule. And, we are very satisfied with the photos he took which capture all the cherished moments in our wedding day in a natural way! I really recommend Jim Lee as a photographer!! read more

Jim is the best photographer! We found him through Instagram, chatted with him a couple times, and met in person to discuss our requirement before hiring him for our pre-wedding photo shoot. He was patient with us and had many good suggestions. We booked him for two days in Yosemite National Park. The photos came out so amazing that We are having him back as our wedding day photographer. We highly recommend him! read more

Highest recommendation for Jim Lee!! He truly went above and beyond for my wife and me; we are so happy to have had Jim as our wedding photographer. He is incredibly personable, talented, friendly, and accommodating. His attention to detail is unrivaled and he really put in his best effort forward during the wedding day photoshoot, as well as photo editing/selection/etc. A real hidden gem! read more

Jim is a hidden gem and a truly talented photographer! We found him after sifting through lots of wedding photographer profiles on instagram looking for someone whose style matched our vision for our wedding photos. His work strikes the perfect balance between romantic and aesthetically beautiful while still being spontaneous, candid and fun. His photos capture the chemistry between the couple and tells their love story in photos. We worked with Jim for our pre-wedding and wedding photos and were thrilled with how our photos came out! Jim has an amazing eye for design and composition and he always manages to get creative and unique shots. He is a skilled photographer and knows how to think on his feet, making the best of the lighting, weather conditions, and surroundings. For example, we had unexpected rain during our wedding ceremony and Jim was able to use the rain to his advantage and gave our photos a misty, moody and magical atmosphere in our redwood grove venue. You will be in great hands working with him and you will have the most stunning photos to cherish forever! read more

We would definitely recommend Jim to our friends. We found Jim on Instagram and hired him to be our photographer for our wedding day & engagement photos shooting. Both of us like the color tone of his photos and he always writes a brief paragraph about the couple which helps the photos to tell their story. Before shooting the engagement photos, Jim asked us if we have specific locations would like to take pictures and give us advice on outfit matching (color & style). Jim tried his best to shoot as many photos as possible in each location, and he didn't mind walking ahead of us and looking for a good angle to shoot. Jim is responsible, and he replies to messages & emails quickly. He is flexible. At the last minute, he let us add a shooting location. He is thoughtful. He understood it would be tiring for me to run in the heavy gown on the beach, so he took a couple of shots before asking us to run. He returned the photos to us on time (even ahead of schedule). Jim also shared with me about the color tone & design of the centerpiece & bouquet would look better in reality and in photos. I am so glad that we chose him to be our photographer on our special day and I am looking forward to working with him in the future by any chance. Thank you, Jim! read more

My friend highly recommended Jim Lee to me for the wedding day photography, and I'm so glad that I took her recommendation and hired Jim Lee! Every single photo took by Jim was amazing! He did a fantastic job of capturing all the emotions of everyone on my wedding day, not just me and my husband. I really appreciate that Jim and his assistant arrived early before the scheduled time so he managed to get a few make up prep photos before make up artist left my house. We had our wedding in Filoli garden where there could be a crowd around when taking photos. Jim was super professional and the photos actually came out perfect without visitors interruption. And some of the angles and composition were genius! I can't be more happy with the results. Highly recommend Jim Lee if you're looking for a great photographer! read more

Time has flown by since our engagement session - my husband and I got married and Jim and his team were thankfully there to capture the day! There is nothing more than I can say other than that Jim and his team were perfect. He brought two assistants with him - Yangzi and Itten - who were also amazing photographers so it was really nice to have photos in different styles. Him and his team were so friendly, efficient and unobtrusive and made such a hard job look so effortless. Everyone was praising him and his team all night about how hardworking and patient they were. I knew Jim was amazing because we did our engagement session with him, but I was a little bit nervous because my bare parents' house and a Chinese restaurant are not the best environment to capture wedding photos. However, Jim and his team worked their magic and the pictures were absolutely phenomenal. We were absolutely blown away!! They capture the day perfectly and tell such a happy story. When my fiancé and I started looking for a photographer - we knew we didn't want the posed romantic photos in front of mansions or gardens or at the most popular places in NYC. We wanted something more natural and meaningful to us. We interviewed so many photographers and looked through so many portfolios that our heads were spinning. I almost settled on a random photographer when I magically was looking through Yelp and stumbled across Jim and I knew I had to have him as our photographer. I was so nervous that he would be booked that I was scared to open his response email! Needless to say, best decision ever - we are absolutely in love with our engagement photos! We took Jim to our old stomping grounds in Jersey City to a neighborhood where he hasn't shot before. However, he really knows how to set up good shots and is constantly on the lookout for better shots. We tend to think that we're a very awkward couple so we were nervous to do all those romantic looking shots, but Jim is an artist and was able to capture our version of romance. We've done some photoshoots before and only liked a handful of photos, but with Jim, there was barely a handful of photos that we weren't in love with. We can't wait for him to document our wedding day! read more

"Don't hesitate - choose Jim as your photographer! We had the honour of Jim at our wedding and he is incredible. From the beautiful engagement shoot at the beach to the 200 person church and tent wedding, Jim had a challenge with all the venues and people but he did it with complete chilledness and style. The photos tell the story and bring back every feeling from our wedding day and we look at them feeling laughter and tears. Jim is truly talented and captured everything and we will treasure these forever. Thank you so much!!" read more

We had Jim for our pre-wedding photo. He is professional, passionate, and accommodating. The schedule was well thought out and shooting day went smoothly. He even took extra time out to make sure we had all the shots we wanted. Throughout the photo shoot, Jim gave helpful suggestions on location and pose. The experience was very positive and despite doing the photo shoot in the city, we didn't feel awkward at all. Jim is very good at capturing the little moments, making the photos look lively and natural. We are very happy with the overall photo quality and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great photographer. read more

Jim did a great job for our pre-wedding photos! We booked a package for 6 hours, but we spent more than 7 hours from the start to the end and Jim didn't ask for extra fee. He also gave us additional free color edited and retouched photos. My husband and I were impressed by the photos and my parents/friends also like them a lot! read more

Awesome! Will definitely recommend Jim to my friends. We booked a 6-hour pre-wedding session in SF area. We worked efficiently on planning. Based on our favorite spots, he made travel arrangement to suit our schedules. He also recommended us some great alternative places for photo shooting around SF area. The entire process went smoothly. My wife and I highly satisfied with the amazing pictures capturing our special moments. I'd like to call him an artist! Please check his ig or website, you will know what I mean :) read more

We had Jim as our photographer on the wedding day. He was so professional in getting the job done despite the time zone difference and long hours shooting, he was persistent. He has his vision and he is passionate with the project. He is also an artist who brings his skill and eye to everything he does. He is patient and kind. He listened our input and then gave us even better ideas using our desired as a loose guide. I love all finish products, amazing and fantastic! We were very happy and touched. Thank you very much Jim! read more

Jim is so talented, so friendly, so patient and so professional as a photographer! At my first introduction to Jim's art work, I was actually a little hesitant - I was not so confident at myself and my husband for taking such candid photos. We are not great at posing nor understand anything about angles, but I have to say, Jim made everything go so effortlessly! We scheduled with Jim in March for our pre-wedding photos in June. He gave advices and recommendations about location, outfit and flowers. He also tried to get to know our stories and our hobbies so we can arrange for settings to best tell our story.
