Before I was even engaged I had sought out James & Jess photography for years! They are not only an incredibly talented couple but they are also the nicest humans you will ever meet! They made my husband and I feel at ease the entire wedding day! The directions they provide you to create an effortless shot are so simple and fun! We felt so incredibly comfortable & safe to share such an intimate day with them! The photos are beyond fantastic as I know we will cherish them forever! Highly recommend James & Jess.
