Sherry2's reviews

We would be happy to refer Connie & Jeff's photography to any friends who were getting married. Jeff & Connie were open to our suggestions of the "must have's" at my daughter's wedding such as:
1) My daughter was married on a yacht at Newport Beach and we had a limited amount of time for pictures after the wedding, so it was very important that thing went quickly and smoothly. We told Jeff we wanted to take pictures from the larget group down to the smallest and he made sure this happened.
2) I also had an idea for a fun picture of my husband with his pockets inside out looking stunned next to our daughter. He took this idea and made it his own, taking many different poses of this. These are some of our favorite pictures.
3) We also had picture taken at Balboa Beach after the wedding. Jeff and Connie worked tirelessly getting every shot possible. Again, we love the running and jumping beach shots.
4)One of the best benefits of having Connie and Jeff together is that Connie was taking pictures of the girls at the same time as Jeff was with the guys. This enabled us to have a lot more pictures in a shorter amount of time.
5) I was so busy having fun at the wedding, that I hardly noticed Jeff and Connie taking the candid shots. However, many of our guests commented that they thought it was great that Connie and Jeff made themselves part of the wedding and were not just observers. Many told us how friendly Connie was and how she was in there getting every shot she could. This is evident when you look at our pictures of the cake cutting an toasting, you can really see the touching pictures taken that were unposed.
6) I feel I must respond to a couple of the negative response I read. I think both the photographer and the wedding party need to take responsibility for communicating the things they want ahead of time, and then trust the photographer to do the rest. For instance, we had a blended family and I failed to let C & J know this. I should have had better instructions on this so we would have had more pictures of her dad's side.
Everyone's preferences are different, so C & J took many different pictures to try and make sure there were some for everyone. I personally like the traditional shots the best and I had a lot to choose from. The silly one's were not my favorite, but others liked those. So I think it was great to have more than enought to choose from and not just limited to one style. You never know what you might like when you see it.

I have emailed Ashley and Scott's pictures to so many people and I have heard nothing but how beautiful the pictures are. Of course it helps to have a gorgeous bride and handsome groom, which we had! I think you will be very happy with Connie and Jeff as your wedding photographers too!

I am the mother of the bride.
