JILL MARKLEY STUDIOS

I heard about Jill Markley from the San Diego Weddings planning chat boards. She was a newer photographer from a long line of wedding photographers in her family. She was very affordable and her pictures were amazing. I was a little skeptical going digital but she can make all the pictures in color and black and white. She sent me portfolios of weddings she did from start to finish so I could see lots of pictures from one event instead of the best pictures ever from all the weddings she’s done. I think I looked sorta flaky to her because we had to cancel our wedding right before booking her and then I emailed her later to reschedule. Oh well what can you do? She was always very patient answering all my questions and waiting for us to get our crap in order.

We met with Jill 3 days before the wedding. She was very nice and seemed to have some great ideas. You could tell she was looking around thinking about what would make a great picture during our wedding day.
My husband especially hates getting his pictures taken and I’m not a fan either. Jill made us comfortable with the whole process and told us everything we needed to do. Not every picture came out perfect but I think the vast majority are WONDERFUL. We also did an “engagement” session on the beach in La Jolla the week after the wedding so we could have some nice casual pictures of us together. She was so affordable and flexible how could we go wrong. Some of our pics are in her online portfolio.
