If you’re trying to narrow down your list of photographers make sure to keep Jessie Felix on the top of the list! For me, the photography was high priority for our wedding so I spent a lot of time researching various companies and independent photographers. We were willing to pay a little more because of its importance but didn’t want to go crazy with our budget either. After looking at so many portfolios online of photographers with a style and an eye that matched what I was looking for, I started to become disheartened because of their high prices. It finally came down to just a handful where the quality was great but the price was fair and reasonable. At our first meeting with Jessie, we knew that she was the one! We felt completely at ease with her. She had such a great and fun personality, and seemed really warm and genuine. Instead of her trying to «sell» her work on us, we could just see her passion for photography and how much she loves working with couples. And her portfolio is amazing! Working with her up until the day was a breeze. She was timely and responsive via email. She even had a 30 minute phone call with me helping me outline the day of timeline! I don’t think she realizes how grateful I was for this conversation. She was patient, provided her expertise and advice. She brought an assistant on the wedding day(Gina) who was fantastic as well. I was really worried about comfort level when taking pictures because I didn’t want to look awkward or stiff, but Jessie and her assistant made us feel comfortable. They were fun to be around and seemed genuinely excited to be a part of our day. They had ideas for photos but for the most part, they were not obtrusive. This gave my husband and I the chance to just be present with each other and enjoy our day while Jessie and her assistant just clicked away capturing beautiful moments between us. I didn’t feel like I was posing for pictures and having to awkwardly«fake» something. A week later, Jessie posted a sneak peak of 25 photos. Our sneak peak photos are absolutely stunning and we can’t wait to see the rest! We are beyond satisfied with Jessie and very happy that we chose her to be our photographer.
