    AMAZING!! Best thing I ever did was book Jessica rice

    Amazing!! I found Jessica and nick through a vendor list at the inn at rancho Santa Fe, in the San Diego area. I talked to Jessica over the phone and instantly felt so connected to her and put down our deposit for engagement photo shoot and our wedding day. My now husband is very shy and reserved so I was a little worried about how our engagement photos would turn out. The minute we got there, we both felt so comfortable and so happy, I’d never seen him like that with new people before. Jessica and nick aren’t only so talented but they are amazing people, you feel like you’ve been friends with them for years.
    Our first planned wedding was canceled due to Covid, I told Jess what was going on and I parted ways with my wedding planner as I was going to do something very small. At that point, Jess was always checking in, sending ideas, and reassuring me. I felt so grateful to have her to lean on and navigate planning a wedding in a pandemic. After all the stress and looking around, we booked a private property for an intimate wedding. Jessica and nick came on the Friday before my wedding to check out the property and to see us. On the day of my wedding, Jessica and nick were there at every moment taking photos and making all of my guests/bridal party feel like family. My sneak peek photos look amazing and I cannot wait to receive the rest.
    ****The best thing I ever did when planning my wedding was booking jess and nick.****
    I can’t wait to use them for any big moment in our lives we want captured.

    Beautiful + timeless

    I first met Jess + Nick at my best friend's proposal - once I saw the photos I instantly fell in love! She went on to photograph her wedding and she made us all in the bridal party feel so comfortable! She had a vision and tells you exactly where to go and what to do, which I love! When it was my turn, I knew immediately I wanted to Jess + Nick to capture our special day! Their style is so bright, natural, and timeless. We had so much fun with Nick + Jess every step of the way and are so thankful that they captured all the beautiful moments of our day.

    Best Wedding Planning Decision

    Choosing Jess Rice Photography was the absolute best wedding planning decision we made. Jess was amazing in the months and days leading up to our destination wedding. She was helpful, proactive, and so easy to communicate with leading up to the wedding day, we just knew we were in good hands! Jess made the remote planning and organizing so easy on us and we are so grateful to her. As for the wedding day, Jess and Nick captured our wedding so perfectly. They did not miss a single moment. From the details, to the requested shot list, to the naturally occurring and personal moments, they really captured everything. We were so comfortable with Nick and Jess; they really were so fun to work with and made us feel so special. They were such an important part of our day and we are forever grateful that we were able to find Jess Rice Photography! We received sneak peaks and access to our full online gallery very timely. We were completely blown away by all of the beautiful photos. Everyone who has seen our wedding album is so impressed and complimentary. We will cherish these photos forever!

    After meeting Jessica to discuss wedding photography and looking at her online portfolio, I was confident that she would do a great job. She is so sweet and bubbly that you instantly feel comfortable around her, which allows her to capture wonderful images.
    We had an engagement session with her and the photos are stunning! She, with the help of her husband Nick captured tons of images and the quality is great. I cannot say enough good things about Jessica, she is professional, courteous, and a pleasure to spend time with. She also had a quick turn around on providing us with a link to an online gallery. I love being able to download the digital copies or purchase high quality prints straight from the online gallery.
    I am so excited for Jessica to photograph our wedding next August. I would highly recommend selecting her as your wedding photographer.

    Thank you so much for such kind words, you two were an absolute delight to shoot and we had so much fun with you and capturing your beautiful day!

    Jessica and her husband Nick were recommended to us by a friend of my daughter. Our initial meeting with them was in our local coffee shop in town. They were both very friendly, professional and were able to answer all of our questions. I was planning and attending to the majority of the wedding details myself since my daughter was out-of-state most of the engagement time. Therefore, I needed someone that I felt comfortable with and confident in their abilities. Best decision we ever made!

    With Jessica and Nick both taking pictures during the wedding ceremony and reception, we ended up with so many beautiful pictures. They were extremely organized, easy to work with, and very professional. Everything went smoothly and they worked well with the other vendors and the venue staff.

    Jessica and Nick had all kinds of ideas for interesting, unique and beautiful photos of the entire wedding party and the bride and groom photos. The photos were absolutely beautiful and they were ready for viewing within two weeks! I would highly recommend them!

    Jessica was an incredible vendor! She is personable, flexible, and innovative. She is professional and so detailed oriented. I had a large bridal party and family and she communicated with them well, handled them so gracefully and did an excellent job of coordinating everyone. She is clear, efficient and prepared while still being so personal and joyful. We also received our photos quickly and loved her attention to detail! We could not have been more thrilled with her service and would hire her again every time!

    I actually found Jessica Elaine through the Big Fake Wedding Expo several months ago and we had an immediate connection. She was so friendly, kind and helpful with every question I asked (and trust me I asked a lot!). My fiancé Patrick & I decided to move forward with an engagement photo shoot to make sure we liked her style and that we were a good fit. The whole experience was so easy and so much fun with Jessica. We had dinner with Jessica and her husband Nick, who is the second shooter, to discuss the engagement photo shot list, outfits, etc. and it turned into a fabulous evening of getting to know each other. We left that dinner knowing we were in the best hands. Jessica also set up a pinterest board for me where she suggested outfits, poses, hair styling, etc. This extra support was so thoughtful and went above and beyond. And they were so flexible when it came to our ideas, and even let us throw confetti! Day of the engagement shoot could not have gone more smoothly. My fiancé is not a big fan of being in front of the camera but Nick & Jessica made us feel so comfortable and we had SO MUCH FUN! Laughing, dancing, and drinking champagne made our photos turn out stunning and they truly felt like us! They didn’t feel staged, and they didn’t feel forced. We love our photos because they look like us on our very best day. We now consider Jessica & Nick to be our friends and couldn’t imagine anyone else being our photographers on our special day.

    If the wedding is anything like our engagement session we are in for a spectacular time! Your photos still have me swooning and I can't even wait to capture you two on the big day!!! Thank you for such kind words and please know how much I appreciate you both.

    I truly could not have picked a better photographer for our wedding. Jessica and Nick, the husband and wife photography duo were absolutely spectacular. They made us laugh and feel comfortable all day long. Even in the intimate moments where tears were flowing Jessica and Nick made us feel safe. The entire bridal party thought they were a hoot and couldn't stop talking about how much fun the "dreaded photos" actually ended up being. Our families were beyond impressed with their efficiency and respect and are still raving about them. They completely took away any stress and captured the most beautiful images we have ever seen. Their style so perfectly caught every candid moment, every thought out detail and every cherished laugh. Not only did they blow us away on our wedding day but we had our photos back so quickly. If you are looking for a husband and wife dynamic duo look no further! You WANT TO hire Jessica and Nick, they were worth every cent and even more.

    Jessica really took the time to figure out what we wanted in our pictures and had a plan to make sure everything went smoothly. She's really easy and fun to work with, and she made the entire bridal party and family feel comfortable. We are so happy with how the pictures came out!

    We loved working with Jess for our wedding day. Jess is a huge exhorter which makes taking pictures really fun. She has a way of relaxing you and turning what could be stressful time of pictures into a lot of fun. We were so pleased with all the shots we got of our wedding day and highly recommend her.

    Thanks Neil! You are Andi are such a delight and capturing your wedding was such a memorable occasion!

    There are not enough words to adequately explain how absolutely WONDERFUL Jessica is! First, she is one of the friendliest people I have ever met. I've never felt more comfortable in front of a camera! She makes the whole experience personal, fun, and super easy. I never had to worry about a thing, and could fully trust her to get everything I wanted, and even some things that I didn't know I wanted until she suggested them! And wow, her pictures are stunning! She doesn't just take a picture, she truly captures a moment. Her pictures were so beautiful, so perfect, so fun, and so us! Marriage is such an exciting time, and these days there is a lot of pressure to capture everything perfectly so that it can stand still in time. Jessica Elaine Photography provides timeless work that we will cherish forever!
