Why choose Jessica McHale Photography for your wedding?
Because my wedding portfolio makes you smile! But also....
Because you want a wedding day, not a day-long photo shoot.
Because you want authentic images that aren’t overly-edited.
Because you want portraits a *little bit* posed, but not stuffy.
Because you want a collection of images that will reflect your style and energy.
Because you want a photographer who you know KNOWS your priorities and who has seen enough that they can - and will- do whatever it takes on the wedding day (run interference, make on-the-fly photo schedule change to meet your needs, and even manage family members) to make sure your wedding day priorities are met.
Oh, and because at the end of it all you will freaking LOVE your photos!
The truth is....
... when it comes to wedding coverage, experience is important. I photographed my first wedding in 2002 at a very young age and fell in love with the endlessly changing creative opportunities, flow of the day, delivering a gorgeous collection of images, and the relationships built with clients.
This is not a field that all people are meant for. It's stressful and physically demanding, with your attention being pulled in multiple directions while on your feet for an entire day. Decisions about moving people or when to do what, and who to direct where, need to be made on the spot which means knowing my clients and what they want. Not cookie cutter wedding day priorities, but yours. When I show up on the wedding day, our greeting should be “hi Jess!”, with you knowing that I know your priorities, your most anticipated wedding day moments, your important details. After that it’s a day of creating authentic, fine-art inspired images and quietly getting excited every time I see beauty in the viewfinder. I’ve got it all under control, I promise!
