She was very comfortable to work with, very helpful in putting together a great time table for our day based on the things we wanted to try to fit in. And it actually was built in a way where we brainstormed additional ideas on how we wanted our day to go that we hadn't thought of sooner. The day of our wedding, she was so personable, encouraging, knew the right shots to take, and the best routes to go. All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed her happy and friendly personality, as did we. We received about 60+ preview shots less than 48 hours after parting ways with her, and they look so incredibly stunning. I'm a snob when it comes to photographers and photography, and no joke, Amy Galbraith is more than a pro. She's someone you can truly trust your day with, and hopefully we can find another opportunity to work with her again in the future!

I've never had photos taken professionally by a photographer so I felt really nervous before but she was super kind and helped me feel more at place and asked a lot of questions during the shoot so there wasn't any awkward silence. She also had a lot of suggestions what to do with my hair and hands so there's a lot of good variation with the pictures. After she took photos of me I completely forgot why I had been so nervous in the first place. I had a good time. The photos came out great and my family and I were super pleased with all of them :) Coming from the perspective of a senior who got photos taken by Amy, I approve!!

Luckily Nadezda was a very soft and gentle with us. She was patient and accommodating and eventually, we felt very comfortable and natural.

From the day 1 of our phone consultation, Jen had heard me and my vision of photoshoot. She pulled out every single piece together to create the story in the frame. Not only was our extensive discussion helpful, but also we were able to build a relationship as artist and model, friends, and family. Jen welcomed me and my dad with her heart and made us feel home at Vashon Island. Of course the photoshoot was incredibly fun and I can't wait for another photoshoot with Jen. Not to mention, her assistant Sarah is proactive in communication and so involved throughout the entire process. Thank you so much for such unforgettable memories and experience!

She took my family of two squirmy kids, my gorgeous wife, and my unphotogenic self, and made us all look brilliant in the same frame. And she has a talent with the soul. I've taken 1200 iPhone photos, hundreds of high quality digital camera photos, and yet not one picture has ever captured the essence of my kids on film. Yet in a one hour sitting, I had dozens of photos to choose from, each one more perfectly representative of my children's personalities than the last. She can capture your soul on film. THAT is why you go see Jennifer.

She's also a baby whisperer and manages to keep kids, be they newborns, toddlers, preschoolers, or second graders engaged and happy and looking their best on the shoot. We've been fortunate enough to do several sessions with Brigette, and absolutely plan to do more -- she's more than worth the drive out to her new studio, which is a bit over an hour for us. We did that drive just a week after I got out of the hospital after a postpartum readmission, with a newborn, a 3yo, and a 7yo, and the photos she got were absolutely worth every moment on the road. Hire her for your most precious photos; you won't regret it.

Now I wish I would have had her do mine (I didn't want any pregnant pics but looking at these makes me sad I didn't).
