My philosophy might seem a little backwards and dare I say, contradictory to being a traditional photographer...
I say take LESS photos. Be present in the moment when it's right in front of you. Spend less time behind some source of technology and don't live in a moment second-handed.
Now here is where I come in. When the moment is important, you need to document it as such. You want to choose someone who is going to be able to allow you to be at ease and as comfortable as possible so the moment and the memories are as authentic and unique as your story is.
Let me be your proof that it happened <3.
“First of all, we are obsessed with the pictures and the lighting and angles!!! You are so so talented! And second, I meant to tell you in person yesterday but I forgot with all the excitement of taking pictures and being at the lavender field farms lol. I wanted to tell you that I am so grateful for your professionalism. You are such a hard worker, so good at replying to my messages and even just now as we were looking at the pictures, my husband said he is inspired by you and all the work you put towards your dream!! Amazing. I am so glad we snagged a mini shoot spot with you! Definitely will book more shoots with you now that we've decided to stay in Oregon. I feel like I have so much more to say haha but anyway, I truly do appreciate you. I've had some not so good experiences with photographers and you restored my faith in the process and you take amazing pictures. Hands down best experience I've had from any photographer!!
Thank you again!"
“My goodness! Jamie these are incredible!!!! I can't thank you enough! I am so excited to have these. Seriously you made it such a fun and comfortable experience and the photos are so gorgeous! I appreciate you so much!"
“Having you as my photographer gave me so much peace and comfort. I knew I was in good hands, and the images you captured are ones we will truly cherish forever! You have a natural talent for photography, and I'm so thankful our paths have crossed!"
“I literally couldn't be happier with the sneak peeks and the whole photo experience! You made us both feel comfortable and relaxed throughout. I'm grateful you were recommended to me! Thank you for everything!!"
