I've lost track of how many times we've watched our wedding video and how many times it brought us right back to that day. The Karmapants team captured the warmth, the joy, the honesty, the silliness, and every emotion in between from our wedding and put together the most beautiful video that we'll cherish forever.

Heidi was exceptional as a photographer!…read more She is a thorough professional who from the very first conversation set our wedding up for success. Her consultation forced my now wife and I to get everything in gear, but we are better off for it. Once she had a firm timeline, she stuck to the schedule and kept my wedding party in the loop of who needed to be where to get the pictures my wife and I emphasized. I was a bit preoccupied during the ceremony, but the number of angles taken suggests Heidi might be capable of flight. I'm astonished that one person could move that quick to capture so many timeless moments. The photos that she was able to capture are ones that I will cherish for the rest of my life! Please consider working with Heidi for any of your large event photography needs!

Heidi arrived early to meet us before things got started. From her experience with Philadelphia City Hall ceremonies, she knew the best places to take photos in and around the building.

We worked with Nicole for our engagement shoot in Rittenhouse and were thrilled with the experience…read moreand the final photos. Nicole helped us feel at ease throughout the shoot and really just enjoy each other and the experience. When conflict in schedules came up due to rescheduling our wedding multiple times during Covid, Nicole was extremely professional and helpful in finding a trusted friend and photographer to shoot our wedding for us. Nicole remained involved, coordinating all of the details and photo edits, and made sure that our experience was as if she herself were there. She was responsive, helpful, and calm as we navigated Covid and event changes together. We were thrilled with the editing and production Nicole provided for the final wedding photos and feel lucky to have worked with her throughout this process!

She traveled 2 hours in the rain and was on time to take pics before the wedding.

I have nothing to compare this business to, but they always responded to me took great photos and were affordable and so friendly!

Caveat emptor...buyer beware…read more We really have no idea how these guys get the ratings they do. We are crushed by the disappointment in their service. We not only cannot recommend JPG, we would strongly caution against using them. In spite of planning together with the photographer and being clear about our intentions not to photograph the prep, we had to wait for them to set up after we were long ready. The 14 weeks from event to actual pictures were astonishing. Even more so after getting them and seeing just how little thought and effort went into their editing and "organization". Also - be prepared to be referred to your contract repeatedly. They will hold it up anytime you ask for something.

Choosing a photographer for a wedding is a big decision because your photos will be long-lasting…read moremementos of the day, and also because there are a lot of variables (style, quality, personality, price, etc.). We loved the photos we saw on JPG's website and their commitment to customers was clear from our very first conversation with Joe. We worked together to come up with a price/package that met our needs and chose Matt Bender as our primary photographer. Our engagement session gave us a chance to get to know Matt and for him to know us. When the big day came, we felt very comfortable with him and he (along with 2 other photographers) did a great job managing our family and bridal party for group shots. Many guests commented that our photographers were awesome throughout the evening. This skill should not be overlooked when you are evaluating a wedding photographer! In the end, we were thrilled with the quality and variety of pictures. The photo journalistic style captured the true essence of the day and there were a lot of really fun shots. To top it off, all of JPG's wedding packages include a DVD or thumb drive of high-res images with personal use rights - which means you have full flexibility when it comes to albums and prints. Bottom line: JPG brought the style, quality, and personality we were looking for at a competitive price. They were easy to work with from start to finish and we could not have been happier with the results.

I was recently asked to provide a review for J & J Studios, nearly five years after working with…read morethem. I had avoided doing so because I understand how hard it can be for small businesses, especially in the wedding industry, and I do not leave negative reviews lightly. That said, the request brought the experience back, and I feel it is worth sharing for other couples. We originally booked J & J Studios during lockdown in 2020 for our April 2022 wedding. In January 2022, after I received a serious medical diagnosis, my husband and I had to postpone our wedding to October. Our venue and every other vendor worked with us, requested reasonable documentation, and did not require additional payment. J & J handled things differently. We were told we would need to pay a new deposit to hold the new date, plus an additional fee because they were unlikely to rebook our original date. We were told that if they did book it, the extra cost would be refunded. With significant medical bills at the time, that added cost was not feasible. For context, about two months after we postponed, I had a friend inquire about our original April date, and she was told it was booked. I wish the experience had been different. We were willing to meet them in the middle as far as the additional payment given the circumstances but they felt they could not at the time. I understand that businesses have policies, but during an already difficult and emotional time, we were left feeling unsupported.

I used J&J Studies for a 3-day event. I contacted them after a Google search and received a quote…read morevery quickly. They worked with me to finalize the details and the final quote was in line with what I was looking for and very competitive. What impressed me the most was the professionalism of the studio across the board - working with the owner on the timeline, working with the photographers each day, and the speed of the final deliverables. The studio even made some adjustments on a group photo to remove some items and enhance it. Prior to the start, the owner created a very detailed timeline of the event for each photographer and a group text to keep everyone informed of any changes or to handle any issues. The photographers themselves were great! They were not obtrusive, quick to respond and did a great job capturing the spirit of the event across the 3 days. To summarize, what impressed me was: - Timeliness on quoting and response rate - Excellence of staff - Coordination of staff - Punctuality and professionalism - Quality of the final product Please consider them for your next event.
