My husband and I were extremely lucky to run across JDM fotos on wedding wire and after receiving…read morewhat seemed a "too good to be true" quote for our wedding, we had the opportunity to meet with them. John and Deanne were so nice and we immediately knew this was the perfect fit for our wedding photos! We had our engagement session with them which gave us the opportunity to meet them and feel a bit more comfortable and our wedding day was completely seamless! Deanne blew us away and was able to assist us in more ways than just the photography and John also outdid himself with the entire day! I still can't believe how lucky we were to have found them and of all of our vendors I can definitely say our photographers were the ones that made the difference! I would recommend them again and again and look forward to working with them both in the future!

John and Deanne did my photos and video at my wedding April 27th. They have been nothing, but…read moreFANTASTIC during our time together. Not only did they take beautiful photos, but Deanne was the truly the jack of all trades that day. She sewed some of my bridesmaids dresses that had issues, bandaged me when my dress was giving me problems, bustled my dress when no else knew how, and pretty much coordinated that whole day. We also had 100s of great pictures to look and choose from and had great video footage of our wedding. They emailed and gave us DVDs of the pictures and video. This was done very quickly. We appreciated all you did for us that day and we would highly recommend you to others.

We couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer. From the very beginning, Anthony was…read moreprofessional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our day special. He made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which is saying a lot since my husband hates being photographed. On the wedding day, he captured everything--big moments and small details--without ever feeling intrusive. The photos came out absolutely stunning. The lighting, angles, and candid shots were beyond what we imagined. Looking through our gallery truly felt like reliving the entire day. Turnaround time was quick, and the final images were beautifully edited without looking overdone. We've received so many compliments from family and friends. If you're looking for someone who is talented, reliable, and easy to work with, I highly recommend them. Worth every penny.

Anthony at Create Culture is a really great photographer. I've known him for a while and he's…read morealways had a knack for photography. He took some family pictures for us earlier on in his career and did a beautiful job. He also took pictures for our son's graduation and did a fun video session for him at the gym. We've had pictures taken by a few companies /individuals and have been let down. I recently moved to Nebraska, had family pictures taken at a studio and was very disappointed. Anthony has really set the bar high for us and is our definitely favorite photographer. He will guide you if you don't know what to do and he will travel to any location to get the shot you want. Don't hesitate to book your next event, photo, video or even a casual night out. You won't regret it. Looks like we will have to fly him out to Nebraska for another family photo at our new house.

Marisa captures some truly precious moments. We now have a family photographer for life. You will not find a more creative, fun, and talented photographer.

You captured my day so beautifully. No detail was left unnoticed. My guests raved about you and how you were EVERYWHERE. My special day came and went so fast, and i will forever have my photos to look back on and cherish always. Your professionalism, energy, and attention to detail is out of this world. I seriously cannot thank you enough for all you did for me . Flawless work! You exceedes my expectations and then some. She came highly recommended and i was not let down.

Holly was so open to ideas, so patient and thoughtful during the shoot, and her assistant seriously bent over backwards just to get that perfect smile and laugh captured on camera!

I just opened the sneak peak email I just received from the session, and now an emotional wreck. Holly's ability to artfully stage the sets, use of lighting, composition, and TIMING is incredible! Highly highly highly recommend!

Felt overwhelmed so I left it in my closet for a few months. I met Dan and enjoyed my classes with him and now I have an addiction with my cameras.

I traded in that camera I out grew it in a year an a half.

One of our dogs is a senior pup, and his health has been worrisome. And after 12 years, I really wanted to make this trip happen for him, but I also wanted to make sure this moment was captured because this pup is my soul dog. I scrambled to find a photographer would be available last minute for a weekend slot. Naturally, no one was available, but one of the photographers I reached out to recommended Thea. Miraculously, Thea had a 9am slot open on a Saturday, which was about 24ish hours from when I messaged her! Securing my reservation with Thea was seamless. She was responsive and kind in answering my questions and recommended a spot that had all the elements I wanted and that was still safe terrain for my elderly parents to join us. I submitted my information, set up my payment, and my slot was secured. We met her at an easy location that she picked out, and I got all the memories that I hoped I would get. It was a 30 minute session, but we packed so much in there -- mountain views, snow close-ups, forest backgrounds. Thea and her mom, who was helping with the lighting, were so kind and friendly. Made our session fun and lighthearted. At the end of the session, we thanked her, and she told me my photos would be ready in about a week. Literally 24 hours later, I had an email with my gallery!!! 50 photos in the gallery of which 20 I could download at high res. I cried. Happy tears of course, because she captured the kind of candid, loving moments I envisioned with my husband, our dogs, and especially my senior pup. Thea helped us commemorate our dog's first time to the snow in such a beautiful way. Thank you so much, Thea! It was such a pleasure to meet you and work with you and your mom.

I had a little over two weeks to get this done. Edwin was the answer to my prayers and made the most beautiful, most endearing memorial video within those three weeks. His prices were very reasonable and very accommodating with my request for changes. Edwin was so calm and compassionate despite me being a nervous wreck. He calmly reassured me that he could do this video with the music I requested and also a short video clip of my son at the end. That was important! I made some changes after viewing the initial draft, and he expertly handled everything I wanted and more. He knows what he is doing and truly helped by inserting titles or a brief description so it all made sense. He's a consummate professional - the video turned out perfect. I added more photos and time to the video and he fit the music just right. I highly recommend ES Photography Studio and would hire this team again without hesitation.
