Melanie and Nate - Testimonial

We recently asked our brides and grooms for testimonials to update our website. And Melanie wrote us this beautiful response. I wanted to share with all of you...
"Phenomenal. Exceptional. Personal. Fabulous. In every aspect of our experience with Jen and The Memory Journalists, from the initial meeting to the engagement shoot to the final product, I immediately felt comfortable trusting my most important day to this awesome group of people, and I was not disappointed.

Some highlights: Not all business owners would encourage prospective clients to interview other photographers, but Jen did. She knew that there must be a certain comfort level between the couple and photographer - this is an intimate aspect of the wedding, there must be a certain chemistry. Jen's recommendation to interview multiple photographers demonstrated to me her commitment to her clients to provide the highest quality product.

The engagement shoot was a fabulous way for Jen to get to know us and our personalities, to know what was important to us when it came to how to shoot our wedding day. We used those photographs for our guest sign in book at our wedding!

The wedding day - Jen and her team act almost as wedding planners/coordinators. They collect all the important information and have a timeline for the day...less for you and the wedding party to worry about! The fact that they shoot with more than one photographer made me confident that nothing would be missed, and made for some awesome photo layouts in the final album.

The sneak peak that is posted the next day was awesome! The day goes by so fast; as soon as those pictures were posted, my husband and I were able to look at those 50 shots and say "Ok, we enjoyed our wedding day" and were able to relax and wait for the rest of it.

The final product, and the experience as a whole, was just phenomenal. I would (and have) recommend the Memory Journalists to anyone in need of photographic services. Just look at the albums on the website. They have such a great eye for catching the right balance of photos, and really are able to capture how the day felt, not only how it looked. Thank you for giving me those memories!"
