    Outstanding!

    Japhet, you're by far one of the most talented - most creative - professionals in the photography industry. My fiancé and I are appreciative of your kindness, and how easy you made things for us. We went from being nervous prior to the shoot, to extremely comfortable throughout the session. Considering how busy you're with other clients, you were timely and effective with meeting our requests. We are so grateful, for your quality of work, and professionalism.

    Picture Perfect 📸

    We had an amazing time using JAO photography and really enjoyed our experience! JAO is everything that you’ll want and need for your event. The pictures are amazing and helped make our house a home. The service was exceptional and we’ll definitely use it again and again. We receive compliments every time someone enters our home because of the images. If I could give it more than 5 stars 🌟 I would!

    If you want the best, here he is!

    Japhet was recommended to me by a friend and has by far been the best choice we made when deciding on a photographer. for our engagement/wedding. He's particular about his work and we absolutely loved that. His ability to capture all the twinkling sparks during the special moments is impeccable. He even has a keen eye for finding the best lighting and the most creative spaces. Also his turn around time on images is top notch.
    If you are looking for amazing and bomb photos, he's it!

    The most comfortable photo shoot experience!

    My fiancé and I loved our engagement session with JAO. I really loved how Japhet let us ... be us. He picked beautiful locations based on our personal style, made sure the lighting was perfect for our different skin-tones and directed us in a way that was comfortable and authentic. His turn around for our final edits was super fast (2 days) and we can not wait for him to capture our wedding day (May 2020).

    I would (and already have) recommended him to friends!

    Professional. Natural. Passionate.

    Japhet was great to work with. Awesome at clear communication from the start of the process to scheduling our engagement photos all the way to post wedding. He’s a natural in helping people relax and be themselves while he’s photographing; evoking raw emotion in his finished product. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a photographer.

    Engagement photos

    Japhet and Jao photography did an AMAZING job with me and my fiancé’s photographs! We told him where we would like to take our pictures and was at the scene before we were to case out the best lighting and spots to capture the best photos for us. His turn around time for edits were incredible! They were taken on a Friday, by Saturday I had a sneak peek sent to me and by early Sunday morning they were done and looked fantastic!!! His professionalism is what sold the experience! Phenomenal job and I have already begun recommending him to friends and family! Exceptional work!

    Captured Moments

    I have to say that working with Japhete was an overall great experience and his work is even better. I work with Brides on a daily basis and I was nervous planning my own wedding because i have seen different vendors work and work ethic and it can be a stressful and disappointing experience. BUT Japhete is great. Very thorough and has great inclusive packages for great rates that include engagement and day of shoots. He is extremely professional and stays true his contractual terms which I have seen many vendors disregard and overbook themselves. I would recommend him any day and I guarantee you will be more than pleased!

    Positano Italy


    We received our photos back within 10 days which we thought was an extremely fast turn around. My wife and I were STUNNED. Our jaws literally DROPPED. Our family and friends could not believe how beautiful our photos came out. All we heard was “THESE BELONG IN MAGAZINES” and they were absolutely right. The images were truly reflective of the love my wife and I share and also the beautiful Italian landscape. Our photos evoke so much raw emotion and allows us to relive our special day over and over again. Our photos actually made it to several well known online publications. We are so happy that we invested in our wedding photos and chose Japhet. If you are looking for a travel wedding photographer look no further than Jao Photography.

    Beautiful Wedding Photos

    My husband and I had such an amazing time working with Japhet! I can't say enough about how mazing he was to just his skills as a photographer but making us feel comfortable and confident while taking the photos. He gives great directions, scoped out the venue for great places to take the photos the day before, he's extremely kind and patient and understanding. I can't say enough about the amazing person he is and then of course there is the photographer and his skills are absolutely unmatched. If you want beautiful photos to remember your special day you need to book!

    Just…WOW! If you’re reading this book now!

    My fiancé and I took engagement photos with Japhet on Monday and as someone who isn’t use to being in front of camera I had such high anxiety about what the end result would be. Japhet was super cool and did a fantastic job with making us feel comfortable with just being us. He was super detailed and did a fantastic job at leading the shoot. We received our photos back way sooner than expected and the quality is unmatched! PAY HIM WHATEVER HE ASKS FOR! I promise it was worth every penny!

    Absolutely Stunning Photographs & Wonderful Service

    We couldn’t have been more thrilled with our stunning engagement and wedding photos! Japhet was extremely professional, time conscious, a great communicator, and made us feel comfortable during each shoot. We’ve received nothing but rave reviews of our photos from family and friends. He captured intimate details, candid moments, and showcased our natural demeanor and love for each other. I can’t recommend him enough, especially for Black and Brown couples. Overall, we had a fabulous experience and will hire him again!

    JAO is top notch!

    Japhet is an extremely gifted photographer. He knows what looks good and provides great direction to achieve your vision. He is very professional, his equipment is up-to-date, his business systems run smoothly, and his work is absolutely top notch. We thoroughly reviewed his portfolio before choosing him as our wedding photographer. After our initial meeting with him, we were sure he was the right fit. And he was! He shot our engagement, my bridal shower, my sister’s wedding, our pre-rehearsal dinner, and our wedding and reception. We LOVE him. Our photos are clear and crisp and fierce and jaw-dropping gorgeous. We can’t wait for our next shoots in January and April. JAO Photography has earned my highest and most enthusiastic recommendation!
