Jay's photographs of my son and family exceeded any expectations I had. He was able to capture our personality in every shot. Jay is truly a professional, he is great to work with and made the photo shoot fun and totally relaxed, he even worked so well with my 6 month old son who had his bouts of fussiness during the shoot. I highly recommend JC Page Photography. The turnaround time to see our photos were very efficient, he was also very generous in the amount of photos we got to keep. I absolutely love, love, love our photos and recommend him if you want something fun, creative and absolutely special photos to keep for years to come! read more

Jay and his wife are long time friends, so it was natural that we would choose him to shoot our son's 1 year portraits. However, we didn't just choose him because he's a friend, but also because his raw talent for fine art photography is unmatched by the various photographers I have worked with in the past. He also has a dazzling personality and sense of humor that makes any photo shoot a pure joy. His aesthetic is remarkable and he truly captures not only the outer beauty of his subjects, but the inner beauty and personality (especially in his candid shots). I couldn't recommend Jay more highly, unless I bought a billboard or shouted it from the top of Mt. Tam. :-) read more

ok first off i hate taking pictures second of all i hate when people try to get me take pictures 3rd i hate cameras. But my husband really wanted to get some family pictures done so i went along for the ride All i have to say is amazing . ok i have more to say jay is calm, cool, and all of the above he knows how he wants to shoot and doesnt mess around. i felt like i was on americas next top model except he didnt weigh me in. i felt so comfortable the pics of my son and husband came out amazing. i will definately use him again read more

We have never had a family portrait done but thought it might be a good idea to capture some photos of us while we are living in San Francisco, and as our baby girl was turning 2, it seemed like a good time to do it. First of all, you should know my husband and I are not photo-people. Stick me behind a camera anytime, put me in front of it and watch me squirm! We had no idea what to expect but hey, we know Jay, so it can't be that bad right? ABSOLUTELY. :) Jay is extremely enthusiastic and passionate about photography. I know one thing that when someone is passionate about something, they do it brilliantly. He made (awkward) us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera and more importantly look good in the photos! His artistic flair and natural talent comes through in his work and the more I look at his more recent and current work, the more I feel like he is simply outdoing himself with each new photo shoot. He has the ability to capture more than just the physical but the underlying emotions and love between the people in his photos, it is remarkable! Give this man a chance to capture your special moments, you will NOT be disappointed. We weren't. :) read more

After 8 years of being single, I finally met and married a great man. We all breathed a sigh of relief that I was now off the market. Even though I really wasn't on the market cause I wasn't interested in anyone out there. Then my man of my dreams walked through the door and we got married. Anyway, Jay Page was very excited for us and offered to capture our engagement, wedding and reception. That's how excited he was. We were excited too. :) Jay did an incredible job capturing our essence of love. Just kidding. He did an awesome job and we were very pleased with his work. We have lovely photos that tell our story for years to come. I highly recommend Jay for all of your photo needs. read more

In September, Color Me Love hired JC Page Photography for a bridal makeup and hair photo shoot. My business partner and I had a vision for the shoot and for our website. Jay was able to bring our vision to life through his images. Jay did an incredible job with the photo shoot. He is incredibly talented and has such a unique style to his creativity. He worked really well with our models and brought out the themes that we created for each look. Jay was on time with getting the images back to us so we can continue the building of our website. We recommend Jay for your special occasion. read more

Had a quick family portrait done by Jay, and he really captured the personality of our family perfectly. Highly recommended!

JC Photography is AMAZING! Jay did our engagement photos and I love each and every one of them. I wanted a city feel to the photos and to capture the essence of San Francisco. Jay did just that. We started at the beach with the Golden Gate Bridge in the background and then drove to North Beach and walked EVERYWHERE to get such unique and different shots(kissing in storefronts, hopping on the trolly, and even using a police officer and musician on the streets as props). He is very personable, easy to work with and an expert in the photography world. He even spent a little extra time with us to get my fiances head shots for his new job. Another nice surprise was having our photos ready before he said they would be. I would definitely recommend JC Photography. I still continue to look at his work because it is Just That Good!!! read more

Jay is absolutely amazing!!!! I could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. I met him while he photographed my best friend's wedding ( I was in the wedding party) and followed his work since! He captures the beauty in the smallest moments and makes every picture memorable! read more

Jay and Jackie did a fantastic job shooting our wedding and even more so, were incredibly fun to be around. Jay's passion for wanting to get the best, most unique shots came through in not just the photos but in his genuine excitement for the shots he was getting. It made me and my new bride thrilled to see what the results are like! He gave clear direction on what posing or shots he wanted and was able to organize and move quickly through the group shots. I wholly recommend JC Page for any engaged couples looking for a photographer! read more

So I hadn't actually thought about taking engagement photos until talking to a friend of mine. I had been tirelessly searching for a wedding photographer in a sea of millions and had no idea what I was doing! A friend suggested Jay who had done some family photos for her. She spoke so highly of him and his skills but I was still skeptical because you can't always take someones word. My fiance and I set up an appointment to meet with him and left that meeting feeling like we had made a new friend! He was warm and genuine and very accomodating. He had a ton of ideas but also encouraged us as a couple to bring out our own creative bug. When we finally met to take photos, we had a ball!!! It was a gorgeous day and he allowed us to be ourselves! There weren't any stuffy pictures or poses.....but there were a LOT of laughs! The only downside was that the weather eventually took a turn for the worse......typical Bay Area.......so we decided to finish up on another day! Again, he was so accomodating and came far in after work traffic to meet us so that we could capture our Bay/Bridge view pictures. He showed no signs of irritation although I might have after driving that far! He seemed genuinely excited about taking our photos. And he didn't run out of direction once we said we couldn't think of anything great to do, lol! (at times we were a little akward but he totally helped us out and got us on track!) Once we receivd the engagement photos I almost cried! They were so much more than what I wanted and thought they would be. He edited them and gave us many options of color for so many of them. He really took the time to make them look their best! The only thing he ddn't edit was my spider vein on my leg, lol!!! Overall, it was a wonderful and satisfying experience! I can't wait until our Big Day and to see the photos! I'm sure they will be just as beautiful! Thanks Jay!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

I just wanted to update my review, as we just had our wedding this past June 22, 2012. I have no words to express how fabilous JC Page Photography is, but I will try. Our wedding was at Wente Vineyards and he had never shot there so a few weeks prior to the wedding he took a trip up there to check it out and scope out the scenery. On the day of he took me (prior to the cerremony) and my maid of honor to the most amazing location to take some pics. He drove the golf cart out there and works his photog magic. Me and my husband went to the same location after the ceremony, this location was breath taking. Throughout the night I had people come up to me and say wow he's amazing. He was everywhere taking fabulous shots--in a very NON INTRUSIVE kind of way, which is very important to me. The passion he has comes through in his work and although I have only seen a teaser pic of the wedding I have no doubt that our pics are amazing. Jackie Page is also wonderful and was assisting throughout the ceremony and prior. She is lovely and also crazy talented. I'm so grateful and honored to have had them shoot our wedding. They are not only the best photographers around but they are also really wonderful people. Very blessed to know them! read more

Jay did a fantastic job with our engagement photos at the Japanese Tea Gardens in SF and wedding photos at St. John Presbyterian Church in Berkeley and Mira Vista Country Club in El Cerrito. He took the time to get to know us, and was very patient with us. He is very enthusiatic about doing wedding photography and was great to work with. On our wedding day, he was able to really capture the different emotions of the day. read more

What can i say about JC Page Photography.... I cant say enough so i will start with this: enthusiastic, patient, caring, concerned, compassionate, TALENTED, easy to work with!!! My fiance and I are using Jay for our engagement and wedding photos, and we set up a meeting where Jay showed us his portfolio of work and asked us meaningful questions in order to capture who we really are. Our engagemt photo session was done throughout San Francisco and it was raining, off and on. I almost wanted to cancel, because it took me about 2 hours just to curl my hair, and that darn rain was going to ruin it... the good news is i didnt cancel, and I already know i will be not only pleased, but THRILLED with the photos he took. I already saw a couple without "touch-ups" and they are stunning. When choosing a photographer, you want someone who can meet your needs, who can capture who you are as a couple, who will care enough to sit down and ask you questions to ge to "know " you. Pictures capture a time in your life, they are filled with memories of the experience and memories of the time. Trust me: you will want Jay to be a part of capturing that memory... He and his wife are a great team! read more

From the moment I seen Jay's work I automatically fell in LOVE with his photos. He has a great eye and captures the most beautiful pictures. He is comfortable to work with that at times I forgot he was there. He has captured the most important moments in my life and I'm very glad that I have the pictures to reflect on those special moments. He is very professional and extremely talented. I highly recommend him. read more

Jackie and Jay are simply amazing! They did a fantastic job shooting our engagement session and we cannot wait for them to shoot our wedding. Jay made our engagement session fun and relaxing. Even my fiancé who hates taking pictures was having a blast. The week of our engagement shoot we had to move the location from Tahoe to their farm up near Grass Valley due to weather conditions. We could not be happier with how things turned out and absolutely love our photos. I would highly recommend Jackie and Jay to anyone looking for a creative, detail oriented and wonderful photographer for their wedding and engagement. read more

Jay photographed some events at our Conference in Lake Tahoe. Jackie and Jay were easy to work with from the beginning. Our pictures turned out great! Definitely the best yet. Jay was courteous, worked with our attendees, and had a great personality and attitude throughout! Thank you! read more

Jay and his wife are truly wonderful people who take pride in providing their best in all that they do. The quality of images produced, as well as strong work ethic while paying close attention to detail are truly done with excellence. I have many many beautiful wedding photos to grasp the emotion, once in a lifetime moments, and people both family and friends from our special day. As a bride, I highly recommend that other brides be very specific in the images that they envision in capturing the entirety of your wedding day. I've learned that each photographer has a unique style and will gravitate toward the lense in which they see the event. I learned that instead of assuming anything, communicate your specific desires and requests so that your photographer knows exactly what you're looking for. What may be a standard wedding picture to you, might not mean it is a guaranteed shot he/she may provide. No two weddings are the same, therefore no two weddings will be photographed the same. I am confident Jay is capable of adapting to your requests and desires in any way being the talented and well-trained photographer he is. After all, it's your day, your money, and an event that is only created once. Be as specific as possible and I have no doubt you will be highly pleased with your captured memories. read more
