Technology Association of Oregon used Jason DeSomer to photograph two events in 2016 - Oregon…read moreTechnology Awards in May and Party in the Pinot in July. We were blown away by his shots. His images capture the spirit of our events and eliminate the contrived photos that are typical of awards ceremonies and outdoor events. He is extremely professional, and non-intrusive while interacting with guests. He captures the moment at our events in so many different ways we can't quite figure out how he got from here to there in that amount of time - but its impressive. And he provides our photos quickly so we can send them out to our community in a timely manner. In 2017 we booked early to lock down those two events, and two more our Kickoff Party in January and Kickball Tournament in August. When planning events you are always looking for great vendors who, in addition to providing stellar service, make your life easier the day of the big event. Jason DeSomer does this, and I can't recommend his services enough.

Jason was everything I was looking for in a photographer, and more!…read more I was searching for a photographer online and Jason's work stood out to me because he has an eye for great camera angles and subject placement, and his photos were very crisp and clear with great lighting and editing (something I found lacking in many others' portfolios). When I emailed him, his quotes were clear and reasonable, and he outlined everything in detail. I was modeling some outfits for a photo shoot in my house. Thankfully, Jason had a lot of great ideas for posing and I already knew the photos would turn out amazing! (I've done shoots with other photographers where I was given no direction and most of the photos came out awkward or meh). I was very happy with the shoot and the photos I received. I would definitely work with Jason again, and recommend him to anyone needing quality photos!

We reached out to Kyle after he did such a great job with our friends' wedding photos a couple…read moreyears ago. When we contacted him, he was very responsive. At our first meeting, he was enthusiastic, organized, and asked all kinds of questions to better understand our vision. The day of the ceremony, he helped us add structure to our pre-ceremony process by nailing down clear portrait timelines for each of us. He has an upbeat and easy-going attitude, which helped both of us feel comfortable while posing for portraits. And further, he clearly has a great eye and improvises well, because he was able to incorporate what might have otherwise looked like a mundane neighborhood setting into beautifully lit, unique photos. Kyle took all kinds of creative, moment-catching candid shots during our ceremony and reception that we couldn't be happier with. When we showed our wedding photos to friends and family afterwards, they consistently expressed surprise and delight at how Kyle was able to capture so many nuanced moments without being intrusive. TL;DR: We love all of our wedding photos and are so grateful to Kyle for sharing his talents with us! If you're looking for someone who is detail-oriented and ready to celebrate with you, we highly recommend Kyle!

She made thoughtful suggestions about locations, her pricing was very reasonable for her level of talent and skill, and her availability was quick and flexible. I had to reschedule and adjust plans, and she was nothing but supportive and helpful throughout the process. Despite spending more time with me, she honored the original quote, which speaks volumes about her integrity and professionalism. The photo session itself was wonderful--easy, efficient, and very professional. Tija has a true artistic eye and provided great direction and suggestions. We accomplished so much without ever feeling rushed. She delivered the images promptly, within one week, and exceeded my expectations by far. The photos were polished, high-quality, and professional--many were so well done that I could use them without any edits. For the images I did want retouched, she handled them quickly and beautifully. Tija is a fantastic, generous, talented, punctual, reliable, and kind photographer. You truly won't find a better one. Highly recommend!
