where do I begin? Jamie Jansen is a rockstar…read more After changing my wedding plans 5 months before the big day from a traditional medium-sized Ohio wedding to an intimate ceremony in NYC's Central Park I didn't know how Jamie would react. All I did know, is that I wanted him to come with us! I saw his books, studied his website, and heard raving reviews from friends that used his services and knew that no matter what over-priced, world-renown photographer I found in New York, their work would not compare. He is a true artist. He tells your story through his photographs. Did I mention he is super sweet, personable, and funny? Yep, He made everyone loosen up and laugh. He has a great personality, which helps him capture true emotion and genuine smiles. He went above and beyond. He actually brought another photographer with him to NYC (free of charge) just to be sure he was prepared to do the job right. And man, did he nail it. I have gotten a ridiculous amount of compliments on my pictures!! Why am I even rambling?? See for yourself...This is a sneak preview he sent to me a couple days after the wedding: http://www.jamiejansenphoto.com/slideshows/2009/bivins/index.html So boys and girls...what have we learned? Jamie is better than whoever else your considering, I promise you. Even if your not from Ohio (attention my NYC yelpers!) he is worth the travel fees. If he lived in the city he could charge 3 times as much so your actually getting a pretty damn good deal:)

If you're looking for amazing photos, a ton of them, someone great to work with, and a…read morephotojournalistic style at a reasonable price, Jamie Jansen is your man. This is someone who is schooled in photography and really understands what he's doing, not just snapping away hoping for a good shot. He stacks the deck in his favor because he's schooled in film and photography. Jamie did our engagement shoot as well as our wedding, and it was FANTASTIC!!! Our engagement photos were the best photos of our lives until our wedding photos! He takes his time to make you comfortable, puts you in settings that will look great, and then has you be yourself. He is not a traditional "SMILE! NOW MOVE OVER HERE! NOW HERE!" He's looking to capture the real moments, not posed, forced, awkward incidents. He'll get as artsy as you want, and will incorporate any and all ideas into the shoot. We could not be happier with our photos, and recommend Jamie wherever you are!

Chris is simply as good as it gets. I was introduced to Chris during my tenure at a local art…read moremuseum. My colleague suggested we hire Chris for some event photography. To say we were pleased is an understatement - we continued to utilize her for the entire 3 years I was with the Museum. She is able to capture the essence of the event while in the shadows, obtaining some of the most powerful candid images I've ever seen. She is also skilled at staged/posed photos. Her attention to detail is out of bounds. Struggling with some of our gallery lighting, she took it upon herself to purchase a special lens filter - to ensure we received the highest quality images. So impressed with Chris, I have recently booked her services for the company I now work for, and plan to use her for a personal family shoot as well. Just the nicest person - and so talented. Highly recommended.

They made the administrative process simple and easy, which is a huge plus with how much there is to plan for a wedding.

If you are looking for the number one photographer...look no further. Genevieve and James of Genevieve Nisly Photography are simply put - THE BEST - in Cleveland, if not Northeast Ohio. I wanted my wedding day to be three things: simple, elegant, and memorable. James and Genevieve knocked it out of the ballpark to capture my special day and with a portfolio of memories that we will be able to look back on forever. Their systematic and thoughtful approach...from the moment we met, taking the time to get to know us, seamlessly working with our vendors, and taking us through all the wedding day events...was completely effortless, and really put us at ease knowing that our day would be perfectly captured by the perfect people. Somehow just saying "thank you" doesn't seem like enough...our gratitude is so much deeper. Thank you for playing a part in our memories Genevieve and James, and may you continue to capture many special memories for others!

He did a great job with the music to ensure people were having fun and dancing all night long. I would book Dwayne for any event hands down!

She is very professional, laid back, and her photojournalistic style was exactly what we wanted for our big day! As opposed to all the cheesy, stiff, posed pictures, Vanessa captured the story of our day in such a beautiful and honest way! We got some good posed and group shots too but for the most part our photos are the natural progression of the most memorable day of our lives, and that's exactly how we wanted to remember it! Vanessa was not pushy or overly present, which exactly what we needed from our photographer!
