Prior to booking Jesse I was very specific with the mood and style of his edits. I told him I wanted our pictures edited just like all of his post on his Instagram. I also made sure to ask how long his turn around time was and he said 6-8weeks. Met up with him communicated really well in the beginning until Full amount was fully paid. We booked Jesse for Photography & Videography for our wedding on April 20th 2024. Our group pictures were horrible, it was soooo dark, we all looked yellow, and looked nothing close to his Instagram posts! Look at the pictures for proofs! It was sooo stressful! I reached out to Jesse for the first time on June 6th 2024 to get updates and I did not get a response back until June 12th 2024!! With another follow up message...... and this pattern continued on. I would get little to NO RESPONSE back horrible lack of communication. He even went off on me super rude when he told me to call him. We got to the point where we almost had to take legal actions because we did not receive our photos until July 4th 2024 & our videos was not given to us until 6 Months later on October 20th 2024. PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF A HEADACHE. DO NOT HIRE JESSE!!!! Book someone who actually cares about his clients, shows them respect and communicates very well with them. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL, RUDE & LACK OF COMMUNICATION. read more

DON'T book with Jesse for your video!!! I want to start off saying our pictures were good, something definitely not edited but in the big picture fine. However our video was horrible. First off we waited almost a Whole year to get it back. When we were told that it was "almost done" in May. We didn't receive it untill Oct 25 2024. Mind you our wedding was November 4th 2023. I sent well over 15 messages throughout those months with no reply. When we finally got a response it was a screenshot of a text from someone else. That left me with no questions and absolutely no response. The "raw" was spliced with an edited video that made Zero sense. The footage we got back I'm just extremely disappointed in the product we received. We should have had the big day captured our FIRST KISS and everything instead we have a slow motion version that's choppy and not what we agreed. We were told by that we would get the all the footage. But like I said we haven't. The first kiss "raw" footage we got was of my husband back. Like seriously. And now we are being told that is it . And basically we don't have those moments. I would have made the review in October but I have been waiting 2 months for a response. Unfortunately nothing will be done we missed out on a beautiful once in a lifetime event being captured the way we agreed. Take these bad reviews into consideration and save yourself the heartache of your big day being botched in the videos. read more

Do not go with Jesse and his so called "team"!!! I surprised my sister with videography for her wedding only to be told three months later that the video was accidentally deleted. I reached out to him on three different occasions to get an updated on the video and he kept insisting the video was coming. Also make sure you get a copy of your contract because he somehow "forgets" what you discussed when signing his contract. read more

Jesse did an awesome job! His photos were beautiful!!! My daughter had some tough requests to follow capturing all her favorite poses found on Pinterest. We enjoyed meeting Jesse and getting to know him. He has a great personality! Very easy to work with and always on time. Thank you Jesse!! read more

I wanted to post this review in hopes that anyone who reads it can benefit from the experience we went through. I am a real customer and Jesse did shoot my wedding. My wife is my witness and if anyone would like to contact me in detail I am more than free to share more about my experience. There is no benefit other than helping you the customer out, with that said this is what happened. The day we met, Jesse overpromises and overhypes on his work. Note that the volume on yelp is not as high as other photographers (this is important) as you can see that all the sample pictures are created and promoted by him, not the customer. He said that he did weddings that he would take over 1000 pictures. He said he would do the pre engagement hour for 300 and no travel fee and when the day came he said it would be 400 plus travel fee. This should have been my first red flag. Also, keep in mind if he ever says he has so many events booked already. This is another form of delaying or overhyping. What was the worst was that he promised that he would record the wedding and "take out the highlights." He said that we would also have the complete recording to keep. To us this was one of his worst lies. Despite my instincts and the fact we already had a contract we went along and he did our wedding. Another major thing I want to point out is the lack of initiative. If you end up booking him and can't back out, I strongly urge you to tell him every single thing during that day, if not he will blame you later. Like any other couple on our day, our mind is filled with so many things to take care and the last thing we wanted to do was micro manage the photographer. There were times he would stand around with his camera and not be as active. Yes his focus was on us, but with so many things happening with our guest we wanted him to capture that as well. We explicitly told him to go around the different tables to take pictures. We had guest to attend and the normal bride and groom rituals. His "videographer" was with him the entire time which in our minds we thought they would either split up have him shooting our guest. These were the results: It took us 6-8 weeks to receive our pictures back, keep in mind he did not once give us 1 picture to show in the meantime. When we received our pictures, the picture count was 500, half of what was promised. Even more so that they are duplicates as he would snap one larger and zoom in on the other. His videographer did not record huge chunks of anything. There was no audio, it was a song for 17 min with clips throughout the day. There was no raw footage. In other words a clip can be snaped for 5-10 seconds and that was all there was. It was in slow motion to milk as much time as possible. This is what made us both sad, he did not record the entire first dance, he did not record the entire father daughter dance and he did not record any of the special moments of the event or even the audio from the church. If you decide getting a videographer please make sure you have backup because in the "highlight video" all those pieces were less than 5 seconds long, unfortunately. The is the last thing I want to share with you and was the most sad thing of all. Jesse did not take the pictures of 5 families that came to my wedding. Each family was 7 members that was almost 40 people that were excluded from our memories. To us was the last straw. There is nothing we can do as I understand the legal aspects of a contract. My only regret was that I entrusted my wedding and all the hard work we put into it to a self proclaimed 2 year expert that we believed in him. We gave him a chance, he let us down and this is the only thing I can do at this point. read more

Went through Shoot With Jesse for Videography for my wedding last October. He waited 3 months to tell us all videos were somehow deleted permanently. My heart was broken to say the least. We kindly asked family to not video during ceremony because we had it covered, or so we thought. Choose wisely when making decisions for one of the biggest days of your life. read more
