jonathan scott photography

I cannot even begin to explain how amazing Jonathan is. From the very beginning I knew this was the one vendor I had to have and I am so thankful I hired him. Our wedding pictures are amazing! Jonathan captured every single moment of my most special day. Because of his photos we will be able to relive those memories for an eternity. He captured images showing us what every guest was feeling and thinking. Truly special! He works diligently and in a timely fashion. I received my proofs back just 3 weeks after the wedding and we already started the album, which other brides say takes almost a year. When all the guests leave and the flowers die , your pictures and memories are the only thing left to remind you of that day, and I wouldn't trust any other photographer with those memories. A pleasure to work, very personable, and professional!

Been a year and still no album? Tried to give him him the benefit of doubt but this is crazy!!!!! Very disappointed for the money that he won't even give us a time frame. Have had friend get married 6 moths ago and have their albums. Really wanted for anniversay!!!!

Jonathan was amazing, he was very easy to work with and accomidating to my Every wish. His style of Photojournalism is outstanding, his professionalisim is top notch and I would Highly recommend him to all brides!

Jonathan Scott's photo's came out amazing. Everyone keeps telling me they are something out of a magazine. They are breathtakingly beautiful. Even though he was unfamiliar with our venue, he found the best spots and took the BEST shots I have ever seen. He definitely captured the moment, and just how happy we were. Just make sure you have a list of family photos you definitely want him to take as "posed" photos aren't his specialty and he won't be reminding you to make sure to take one with Aunt Milly.....A++

I do not have enough wonderful things to say about Jonathan Scott photography, the process was smooth. Our wedding photographer was actually Maya Hoffner, who was absolutely phenomenal!!!! She was tireless and dedicated to getting great pictures. We were very upset with ourselves for not getting a videographer, however are confident that the pictures will tell the story better than a video could ever do.... Thanks so very much! I would recommend Jonathan Scott photography with enthusiasm and without the slightest hesitation. Thanks again for making our special day memorable! :-) Karen and Frank Battaglia

We just received the proofs, and they are absolutely gorgeous. There are many to choose from, multiple shots of important people, great informal shots, and very artistic, unusual shots. I am sure the completed album will be amazing, as we have seen Jonathan's work before.

We are so please that we used Jonathan for our wedding! Our pictures came out stunning. He was a pleasure to work with right from the start. I was so stressed out on my day, with the weather and because we were behind schedule. He stayed calm and guided us through it! We are now in the process of building our album and he has been very attentive to us during this process. He explained to us in the beginning how customized this process is; I had no idea how customized! I highly recommend him!

Jon is a great photographer. He has an amazing eye for details and different shots, and he is quite a character. He knows the shots that he wants, and he knows how to get them...just go with the flow and your pictures will come out amazing! It's better to get him on the phone than rely on email...he is an up-front person and will tell you exactly how it is. He and his team are very professional...I always felt comfortable and I always felt that they were taking the pictures for US, not for their sample albums. The value for cost is excellent...I know many photographers who charge much much more and do much less for their clients. In terms of flexibility, he will take whatever shots you want, but like I said before, sit back and go with his flow in terms of what shots he gets and when...he got every shot that I wanted him to get, but I have to say that the shots he lined up without me knowing were the ones I love the most. He does this for a living...he knows what he's doing more than I do!Our wedding was a month ago, and I received my proofs 2 1/2 weeks after our wedding. I anticipated waiting much longer and was pleasantly suprised. He has been very up front about the time it will take to make our album due to the effort he puts into retouching images and making sure the album flows properly and artistically.Overall, I recommend Jon very highly, and he captured the essence of our wedding exquisitely.

both of our daughters were married last year and we used Jonathan Scott for both weddings. It was a great experience working with Jon and we have wonderful pictures.

Jonathan Scott is an excellent photographer who will document your wedding in photographs beautifully. Jonathan is very professional and reasonably priced. He does a good job organizing your family and bridal party for photos, while not being intrusive to your wedding.

Jonathan and his team are extremely talented and lots of fun to work with. From the moment I saw his website I knew I wanted him to photograph my wedding. The albums he puts together are some of the best I have seen. Before I found him I met with other photographers that are well known in South Florida and none of their work impressed me like Jonathan's. His pictures are awesome the albums covers he uses are amazing and the layouts he creates for the album are INCREDIBLE!!

Jonathan photographed our wedding and designed our album and we couldn't be happier! Jonathan has a great sense of humor and he really made everyone feel relaxed and comfortable. We are more than amazed at our wedding album and we have gotten so many compliments! Since our wedding, Jonathan has photoraphed 3 of our friend's weddings and they are equally impressed. Thank you Jonathan, we feel you really captured the spirit and emotion of our special day!

His work tells a story! When I went to his office and picked up an album I felt like I was at that person's wedding and I could follow the event the whole way through. I loved that he was there to capture my wedding and not to pose me for hours to take pictures. Sure, we did the posed ones I asked for with the family and bridal party, but the rest I let him be creative and his pictures are great. I can't wait to get my album!

Jonathan Scott is a truly talented photographer. His photo-journalistic style is incredible. Additionally, he is professional and knows exactly how to work with a bride and groom. We are beyond thrilled with our photos. The only trouble we had was trying to choose the best ones for the album since we absolutely loved all of them! We were very fortunate to find this photographer and highly recommend his artistic work. He knows just how to capture the moment. Thank you Jonathan!

I had a great time working with Jonathan on my wedding day! He made me feel beautiful and special - the perfect start to our amazing night. And that's on top of the absolutely amazing photos he took. The pictures are perfect.....they captured the spirit and the fun perfectly. There are even scenes that I participated in but don't remember, and his picture brought them back to me.Jonathan helped me figure out a way to work with my budget and I received proofs about 2 weeks after the wedding. He did a great job of crowd control. I recommend him without reservations. I just wish I had another event I could justify getting photograph!

This is a mixed review. When I first met him I thought he was very cocky but my mom liked him so we went with him. He was also highly recommended by The Knot. He was very expensive $3000 (and that was a “deal”), which included an engagement picture, album plus 2 parent albums and high res disc. He was at the wedding on time and was professional. He did work with me for the pictures I wanted. We received our proofs online a couple months later and I was disappointed to see that the pictures included pics of his assistant! I did not pay $3000 for pictures of this woman. I was also disappointed that there were no pictures of the table set ups and arch set ups. He also did not get a picture of our going away car, the Rolls Royce that was in the movie Arthur. I do understand that things were a bit chaotic because of the sudden downpour, but…Anyway, I choose my pics for the album and then did not hear from him. After many emails and calls and me getting “I’m working on it” we finally received our high res disc on Dec 12, 2009. This is 14 months after my wedding. I had to physically go to his office and ask him where everything was. Mind you, he was paid in full prior to the wedding. We then received our proof of the album right before Christmas. I made our choices and sent back about 3 weeks ago. I still have not heard anything back. I am hoping we can get our album before my son is born in April. I will say, however, that I did like the pictures. They were nicely shot and were beautiful. He did catch some great moments between my grandfather, my only grandparent who has since passed, and me. I would have given 5 stars if we received the pictures earlier and if we have received the albums.

I have used many photographers in the past for our family celebrations. Jonathan's photo-journalistic style was unique which was why our daughter wanted to hire him for her wedding. We met a number of times before the wedding and he addressed all of our concerns. We trusted him and listened to his suggestions. The day of the wedding was flawless. He and his team shot amazing photographs which truly captured the essence of this milestone in our daughter's life. You need to be patient because he is an artist. It takes him a while to return the album proof. Now seeing the finished product I have a greater understandng of the time frame. This is no cookie cutter album! The 3 albums: bride and groom, parents of the bride and parents of the groom were all unique. Each album reflected the story from their perspective. It was worth the wait!

the experience with jonathan was terrible. we also hired him because he seemed ok and was highly recommended by the knot. we felt he was he was moody on the day of the wedding, forgot to get many standard shots (no pics of our rings, for example) and even let his assistant (paid for) go home early. it took almost 2 years to get our albums after ordering and was shady every time we contacted the office about where our pics were. says they were "being worked on" or they were "almost done" and that the wait is "worth it" because they would be so great. when we finally got the design back, they were crap! no design at all! he left glare and shadows and blurs everywhere and no special effects like you see on his website examples. i could have literally done better editing on my own with some simple program....this coming from a professional using up-to-date software??? i don't think so. the photography itself was decent, but i expect more than that from a professional. i've seen better pictures from amateurs.

i have seen many reviews complaining of these same problems, in particular the time he takes to get things done and giving the run-around to people when they call. some other reviews i read shocked me in their description of how he treated people on the day of their weddings. all i can say is do your research. i am not usually the type of person to take time and write reviews, but we were so hurt by this company that now i am.

I would never recommend this photographer to anyone who expects any type of quality customer service. I got married in June of 2008 and it is now January 2010 and I STILL DO NOT HAVE MY WEDDING ALBUMS. Anyone who is willing to wait over a year and a half for their photos and albums, this is the photographer for you. While his pictures are of good quality, he was pushy and came across rude to both my bridesmaids and family. For the costs of his services, I expected both quality and professionalism. Making a bride wait over a year and a half for her wedding photos and albums is absolutely not professional, and not good business what-so-ever!!!

The biggest reason for the low rating has to do with efficiency. I got married about a year and a half ago and am still waiting for my album! I was told that if we paid up front it would be less expensive than paying later on, but now I regret doing that. The photographer who worked my wedding was great (not Jonathan himself) and from what I can tell of the photos via proofs, they came out well. But, I shouldn't have to wait this long to get my wedding album. I am extremely disappointed. I read 2 other reviews on a palm beach post website that complained of the same issue.

I think that the service was overpriced.

It has now been 2 years and 4 months since my wedding and I still have no albums. While Jonathan's pictures are beautiful, there is no disputing that. He has even used some of the images from our wedding on his website. However, his customer service has been so poor and frustrating that I cannot recommend him as a vendor. He does respond, albeit not timely, but his responses are vague and still leave you wondering what is going on. We paid approximately $18,000 for his services in advance and his service level should match the cost which it clearly does not.I approved the final draft of my album in Dec 2009. In June 2010 he was just waiting for the printer to tell him when they would ship. Still waiting...

This guy should not be a business owner. One of the worst experiences of my family’s life in dealing with a vendor. Thank god we only had to work with him once. The price for the service must have been based on a catalog of someone else’s work. It must have been based on what the outcome was. The quality of his talent was mediocre at best. A great camera with a less than accurate shot. Over 3,000 photos posted nearly four months after the wedding. It has been 9 months since the wedding and we haven't seen anything as to the status of our photos and books. He doesn’t return phone calls! In addition, family members have attempted to order prints and for several months since they made the purchase have not seen anything. I would not recommend him or his unprofessional services to my worst enemy. JSP was a disaster and I only can hope we will receive our wedding photos before our one year anniversary.

I got married on 8/18/07 picked my pics and got them back to him by the beginning of 2008, We didn't get our proofs for the album changes for a full year, I didn't get my originals on cd for a year after that, and i was promised the originals from the engagement session, still haven't gotten those. And now February 2011 and still calling and getting excuses or ill of retaining an attorney to get this resolved.

The day of my wedding he took me aside and told me that he might not be able to stay for the whole wedding. I received my album 1.5 years after my wedding date. All album photos were red and orange colored.It's been 2.5 years and still no negatives that were promised in our contract. He gives the runaround and does not email or call back.

Working with Jonathan was a great experience his pictures created the most beautiful story. I loved everything that he did for us.

When we met with Jonathan, we loved his work and had high expectations, as capturing the feeling of the day was extremely important to us. He far exceeded our expectations, and everyone that has seen our pictures are envious. He has an incredible eye, and we love his photojournalistic approach. After meeting with 4 or 5 other photographers, we were pleasantly surprised at how reasonably priced Jonathan's packages were and were thrilled that we got to keep the digital negatives. We also loved the engagement shots that we took on the beach and how these look more like artwork than portraits. Though his approach is laid back, which made us feel relaxed on our wedding day, he made sure to get all of the shots which were important to us.
