An overdue, much needed thanks to Shannon 3/25/17…read more Shannon was truly a delight. She was personable and very professional. Her photography speaks for itself--fresh, unique, an ode to a bygone era. She was able to capture the unspoken, and that alone holds great significance. While capturing our wedding day was of great importance to my husband and I, we weren't well versed in wedding-photography...at all. We knew Shannon was professional, and we allowed her to direct us, and what she needed of us. She knows exactly what she has to do and when she has to do it (If you have a wedding planner or day-of planner, she can coordinate with him/her as well). A huge thanks to Shannon for thinking outside the norm and capturing our vision, even before we knew what that vision was. If she has an idea, she runs with it. I must commend her on simply taking charge and shooting what she needed to shoot (simple things like rings, flowers, vintage handbags, etc.). The afternoon of our wedding day, I remember standing in the foyer of the house we were living in. Shannon walked in, said her "hello's" and started looking for places to shoot. While we were getting ready, she asked for particular sentimental items of mine and photographed them. I would have never thought to capture such beautiful emotion, and she did it with ease. We are beyond thankful for the memories Shannon has gifted us. If there's anything more I could have asked, it would have been more time with her and her camera. However, time flies when you're so blissfully happy, and there's nothing about that I would have changed.

Whitney and Jesse shot our wedding and made us look like we were straight out of GQ. Unbelievably…read moreawesome work, and they're cool people, too. The only downside was all the aunts and uncles and cousins who kept getting into the shot - we probably would have had 1000 awesome pictures instead of just 600 awesome ones. Can't recommend these two highly enough. If you're getting married and you want some awesome photos, they will do you right. I'm sure they're also available for birthday parties and bar mitzvahs as well.

Ashley is an amazingly talented photographer! She did my engagement pictures along with our wedding…read morerehearsal and wedding day photos! She went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience. My husband hates taking pictures and after our engagement session he said he had the best time! She made the session super fun and very relaxed! The wedding day was the same way! She had so many creative ideas along with the list of ideas we already had. She far exceeded our expectations of what we wanted. Every single detail was captured plus some! I had several questions for Ashley (seemed like I had something new to ask her every day lol) and she always responded within an appropriate time frame and was more than helpful each time. She went over and beyond any time I needed! I would highly recommend her to anyone. She will be doing all pictures for our family from here on out!

It was obvious she knew exactly what she was doing and is a true professional. The best part is that I love the pictures. They are exactly what I was hoping for.

Danielle was able to squeeze me in at the end of the day with only a few hours notice.

I received both digital and physical prints at a reasonable price. I would absolutely recommend her!

Here's the deal: Jess is a very talented infant/newborn photographer who charges a premium (read:…read moreExpensive) for a reason. You will get outstanding photography that will make everyone you know - even people who know good photography - ooh and awwwwwww. Being "of the industry" i took particular interest in researching Atlanta photographers as we planned the birth of our son, Jesus. Just kidding, his name is Asher. Anyway...blaspheming aside... Jess rose to the top and while i had particular concerns with her rates and policies regarding use of photography (again, just an industry thing) we jumped in. Jess's studio is in Brookhaven, in the basement of a very nice house. Of the probably 1000 square feet of space, perhaps only 150 square feet is dedicated to the studio but it's more than enough. Actually, it was very efficient. Natural light casts on the shooting space and Jess quickly and efficiently changes out props and settings to get the best shot and the most variety possible. They have a storage space that also has additional props and she rolls with the punches if you have a creative suggestion. She's also a complete infant charmer despite, to my knowledge, that she doesn't have a kid of her own. She knocked our dude out in no time with a few taps to the rump. Our photos were exactly what we expected - everyone we know adores the photography and we'll absolutely get our use of them. While we ordered our announcements on our own, we did purchase the digital rights to a select number of photos as well as a few photo books that included all of the selects. We kept one and gave 1 to each of our sets of parents and they show them off like they were bars of gold wrapped in platinum. Everything turned out great. When you consider what you'll do with the photos, I would advise you to consider what is the value of 3 or 4 photos that you'll use over and over and/or display for years and years. I think you'll come to the same conclusion i did - paying a little more (or a lot in some cases) is worth it if the quality matches your expectation. It did mine.

I discovered Jess Kamm Photography during my wife's pregnancy last year. Her doctor's office had…read morethese amazing prints on the wall of these adorable sleeping angels in various poses. The photos were breathtaking, but we decided against scheduling a shoot due to financial considerations. After our daughter was born, I reconsidered that decision. Our little girl was truly a miracle and a blessing. My wife gave birth to a beautiful, healthy baby girl last March after years of trying. I decided to give Jess a call. Jess likes to schedule newborn shoots within the first 14 days of birth and I had called to schedule a shoot with Heidi on day 12. Remarkably, Jess made time in their schedule to fit our little girl in on Good Friday that same week. Heidi was a true professional in every stage of the process. Her photography was masterful and I was blessed to be able to see her work over the course of a 3 hour mini-shoot. She kept the studio on the toasty side and blasted a white noise machine to help soothe our little one into the perfect poses. It is still remarkable to me how Heidi was able to capture these incredible shots, but I have the photo album, prints and birth announcements to prove that she did. My wife and I could not have been happier with the finished products. They are absolute works of art. Heidi also recommended the right layout, colors, fonts and page thickness of our photo album and created the most beautiful birth announcements we could possibly imagine. I am so glad we decided to call Jess Kamm to schedule a photo shoot of our little angel. We now have a lifetime of memories in these beautiful photos.

They are genuine, fun to be around, and highly skilled. Overall, they are just an amazing team. They shot my wedding in Atlanta and exhibited great patience and flexibility throughout the entire day. My family and friends loved having them there, and I couldn't be more happy with the results!!!! We took some of our photos inside a Gothic-Tudor mansion and some outside in the gardens. The quality of the photos for both settings was spectacular. My husband and I feel blessed to have had Alana and David there on one of the most important days of our lives. P.S. They do more than just weddings, so check them out if you're looking for pictures that capture you and your loved ones in the most authentic way.

She completely understood the 'look' that we wanted for our engagement shoot and wedding. Our preference for candid, rather than staged photos was exactly what she delivered. Bekah and her assistant Christina were able to capture all the precious moments of the night. Like all weddings, there were many unforeseen events but they both handled it like true professionals and were able to guide and make us feel completely comfortable. Bekah had everything planned down to a T and we would have been lost without her advice. And finally, her edits were amazing. We have had so many compliments on the photos from our friends and family. One look at her portfolio and you will see why we trusted her with the most important moment of our lives. To simply put it; HIRE HER. It will be the best money that you spent on your big day!

It must have been my photographers. Danielle was wonderful, and all of the photos turned out amazing! As an idea of her own, set up a photo booth for my wedding, which turned out to be a huge HIT! She worked out the photo booth so that guests could easily work it themselves, while she surveyed the dance floor. It was like having two photographers in one! I've had so many great comments on the photo booth, and highly recommend Danielle and Ella Rue Photography!
