Cheryl & Richard

My husband and I got married and Jim and his team were thankfully there to capture the day! There is nothing more than I can say other than that Jim and his team were perfect. He brought two assistants with him – Yangzi and Itten – who were also amazing photographers so it was really nice to have photos in different styles. He and his team were so friendly, efficient and unobtrusive and made such a hard job look so effortless. Everyone was praising him and his team all night about how hardworking and patient they were. I knew Jim was amazing because we did our engagement session with him, but I was a little bit nervous because my bare parents’ house and a Chinese restaurant are not the best environment to capture wedding photos. However, Jim and his team worked their magic and the pictures were absolutely phenomenal. We were absolutely blown away!! They capture the day perfectly and tell such a happy story. When my fiancé and I started looking for a photographer – we knew we didn’t want the posed romantic photos in front of mansions or gardens or at the most popular places in NYC. We wanted something more natural and meaningful to us. We interviewed so many photographers and looked through so many portfolios that our heads were spinning. I almost settled on a random photographer when I magically was looking through Yelp and stumbled across Jim and I knew I had to have him as our photographer. I was so nervous that he would be booked that I was scared to open his response email! Needless to say, best decision ever – we are absolutely in love with our engagement photos! We took Jim to our old stomping grounds in Jersey City to a neighborhood where he hasn’t shot before. However, he really knows how to set up good shots and is constantly on the lookout for better shots. We tend to think that we’re a very awkward couple so we were nervous to do all those romantic looking shots, but Jim is an artist and was able to capture our version of romance. We’ve done some photoshoots before and only liked a handful of photos, but with Jim, there was barely a handful of photos that we weren’t in love with. We can’t wait for him to document our wedding day!
