Hands down need these photographers
Jake and Julie Ann were one of the best choices we made, hands down! They are so fun, insanely professional, and capture every moment you’d never knew you needed. They bring such a huge level of comfort to your big day, I don’t know what we would have done without them! 2 photographers, grabbing everything to make memories last a lifetime; meanwhile you can genuinely tell they’re enjoying the moments just as much. The attention to detail was out of this world and not a single photo was left imperfect. I would never recommend anyone more than these two amazing humans!! -

Jake and Julie Ann are very professional but also very personable. They genuinely care for their clients and go above and beyond to get the shots you dream of. I had the time of my life doing our wedding photo session, they completely embraced the location and were wonderful with directions. Prior they were great with communicating with us regarding scheduling and were so, so helpful while I was getting ready. They are knowledgable and experienced with weddings and eased my mind when nerves got to me and handled deviations like pros. I could go on and on, but I will end with: BOOK THEM! I promise you won’t regret it. 💜 -

Being that we had a destination wedding, it had taken us a while to research vendors and to be able to communicate effectively. Albeit, we had a little over a 2 year engagement but we wanted to book vendors asap due to our very popular wedding date, and because we were booking during the COVID wedding boom. Jake and Julie were nothing short of the photographer/videographer we were looking for. I wanted to try to keep photo/video within the same vendor, as especially being an out-of-stater, you don't know which photographer and worked with which videographer, if they work well together, styles differ, etc. I loved the fact that they are a husband and wife duo. Their communication was fantastic throughout the process and they really helped me in any areas I needed help with. I tried to keep them updated as possible on timelines, and they did the same. The day of, they were spot on with everything we talked about. We ended up changing some things around as it monsooned almost the entire day and night - but let me tell you - obstacles don't stop good vendors! Jake and Julie were so amazing that once the ball started rolling for pictures and the ceremony, I did not have a worry in the world about the rain affecting pictures. Also, I don't know how they did it - but the audio during our ceremony was surprisingly so good (I only say that because it just kept raining even harder as the ceremony went on and it was in a barn so it was quite LOUD). I was happy to be able to hear our officiant speak throughout the ceremony video because the nerves can get the best of you and it just flies by. Also, they were so on point and professional with anyone trying to intervene with pictures/videos (we love when family and friends want to get their own photos during specific events, but you need to let the professionals do their job!) They worked really well with our DJ and coordinator throughout the entire day and kept us in the loop or would ask our opinion on something specific, especially because we had to make changes to the timeline due to rain.
I loved the fact that they have a drone! Although we weren't able to have it due to rain, I had actually forgotten about not being able to utilize it because they are that amazing at their job! The USB was delivered right on time and we couldn't be happier with how they came out! I had no doubts about Jake and Julie from the moment we booked with them - I knew we made the right choice. I would definitely book with them again if we are in the area and in need of photography or videography, and will definitely recommend to anyone in need of their services!
Thank you both x10000!

Amazing Duo!
Working with Jake and Julie was a seamless process from start to finish. We met them at a bridal show and knew they were who wanted for our special day. They are high energy, efficient, responsive and flexible. They helped us navigate a photo list and gave us great recommendations to ensure we got the photos we wanted. We would highly recommend Jake and Julie for your special day! -

How do you have a great and memorable wedding? Make sure you have the BEST venders! Held in the Moment Photography made our wedding one to never forget! The husband and wife team were just that…… a team! Always fast to respond, answer questions or come up with creative ideas. They were professional yet so much fun! We laughed and joked every time we were together. We not only got great photographs but we gained two great friends! The photos that they take are breathtaking and creative! Rob and I can not thank these two enough! I will always recommend Held in the Moment!!!!! -

We hired Held in the Moment Photography for our wedding. Leading up to the day, they were super flexible with time and our needs the day of. When they showed up, they were full of energy, super fun, and stayed on track with our schedule. It was also super super exciting to get a sneak peak of our photos the night of! They are absolutely stunning, and we can’t wait to see the rest! -

Jake and Julie Ann exceeded every hope and expectation! When I started looking for wedding vendors, they were one of the first ones that I felt fully confident in booking. They had great reviews, and every single one of those reviews held true throughout us working with them. They were great with communicating, and because we live outside of Vermont, they were happy to meet with us over video chat to get to know us and answer any and every question we had. When it came to the wedding itself they went well beyond their roles of photographers. We had our wedding on my in-laws lake property, and decided to forego a wedding planner, etc. But I did not even think twice about regretting that decision, as Jake and Julie Ann stepped in, without even expecting them to. They were constantly checking on us to make sure we were good and did not need anything, and they even helped us keep track of our rough timeline of events. Julie Ann stepped in to touch up my hair, veil, etc. and even bustled my dress for me, so my bridesmaids didn't have to worry about it. And let's talk about the photos themselves...incredible! Beyond happy with how they turned out and our showstopper firework photo still seems too good to be true! Just make sure that you are clear on your top photos you want when they give you your before-wedding "wish list", and they made sure to cover every one we asked for, and then some! After the wedding there was a slight mix up with getting our entire photo collection on usb. I want to make it clear that it was NOT their fault-it was out of anyone's control (thanks usps!)- but Jake was quick to step in and remedy the situation and even go above and beyond in that situation to take care of us.
Thank you Jake and Julie Ann for taking such great care of us, and for giving us photos that we will truly treasure for a lifetime! Hopefully we can work with you again in the future-growing family photos maybe?? :) -

Amazing photographers!
Jake and Julie Ann Held are the best photographers! They are kindhearted people which makes them easy to work with, and they really listen to everything the couple is wanting to capture in their day.
I have attended and been in many weddings so I thought I knew what to expect on the day of. However, we had some major issues at our wedding including the wrong flowers from the florist. Due to this our wedding ran 45minutes late. Without asking Jake and Julie Ann had already coordinated with our caterer to let them know dinner may need to be pushed back. They made our day run smoothly, and did so without adding pressure. My husband and I were able to get all of our formal shots, our wedding party, and photos of just my husband and I all before dinner. They handled things better than I could have ever imagined, and helped up make up for lost time. Did I mention this was in the middle of a pandemic?! I just can't speak highly enough, they truly love what they do and with that brings performance beyond your typical photographer.
You never know what'll happen on your day, make sure you have the BEST photographers to help keep the day going!
You will not regret the choice of Held In The Moment Photography! -

Amazinggg!!!! Not only were they amazing photographers but they came prepared with everything from tissues to safety pins. They really put me at ease before the wedding and made sure to know all the family dynamics for photo taking prior to my wedding day. Having a big blended family with lots of moving pieces, I was amazed that they had every possible photo combination memorized and made the process quick and easy. Getting a sneak peek the night of our wedding was just the cherry on top of an amazing experience with them. We can’t recommend them enough! -

We will be using their services in the future! We highly recommend! They are truly an amazing husband and wife duo! -

Phenomenal
Jake and Julie Ann were absolutely amazing!! They were fantastic to work with and everything went extremely smooth considering how frantic a wedding can be. Our “sneak peak” photos were PHENOMENAL and we can’t wait for the full package to be ready!! At the end of the day, I’m not sure who had more fun. They were a blast! -

Held in the Moment Photography was by far the best! They were so easy to work with and creative in their photo angles and poses. The photos we have already seen are incredible!! They have far exceeded my expectations! We have received so many compliments on our photos and we can't wait to see more! I will keep them "on speed dial" for any of our future photographer needs! -

My husband and I met them at a wedding show in early 2020 before the pandemic hit and we are so glad we did! Jake and Julie Ann were extremely helpful throughout the entire crazy process. They are incredibly thorough in preparation leading up to the wedding which results in efficiency throughout the busy day. They went above and beyond what we expected from wedding photographers from handling our crazy 1-year-old golden retriever (and getting really cute action shots of her!) during our engagement photo session to holding food and drink for us so we could snack in between photos during the family photos after the wedding, they both selflessly help in any way they can! They are both such genuinely nice & fun people, within minutes of them arriving they feel like lifelong friends which resulted in such natural and comfortable pictures.
Jake & Julie Ann Held are definintely #couplegoals! They are phenomenally in sync with each other, elegantly swapping roles & sharing all the tasks at hand with very little verbal communication amongst themselves. They both have a gifted artistic eye and have the ability to step into a new space and instantly find the most stunning picture in the area. They were an absolute pleasure to work with and every vendor, family member, and guest at our wedding was truly blown away by their services.
We love that they give us same-day sneak peeks of photos after each session. It was wonderful to get a glimpse of our photos right away because the day just flys by! We would recommend Jake and Julie Ann to anyone and will definitely see them for our future photography needs! -
