    Dream Wedding Photographer

    Joie was so easy to work with, and we went with her because her portfolio is beautiful. Fortunately, she stuck with us during the pandemic and multiple date changes. We still have not seen all our photos, but the ones we have seen are gorgous. My fiance does not like posing for photos, so she worked quickly to get our posed shots and for the rest of the night she captured candid shots. Joie is very friendly, fun, professional, and has some flashy dance moves. She made a point to know who everyone is, what shots we wanted with our group, and had some ideas that we never would have thought of. I Highly recommend Joie for your event and hope to work with her in the future.

    A Need to Hire Vendor for your Wedding Day

    Like many couples in 2020, my husband and I embraced the intimate backyard wedding to begin our newlywed lives together. With deposits made and a new date in place for our anniversary celebration (after postponing many times), it was a true relief knowing Joie was on our vendor team. Joie was a consistent, dependable, & available vendor we knew would take care of us leading up to & on our special day. Her eye for capturing the sweetest moments, special details & long lasting memories is truly a gift to be treasured forever! Joie managed our timeline perfectly, ensuring everything we envisioned for our day was captured by her & experienced by us. We could not be more thrilled with the stunning images from our anniversary celebration! The love, joy & excitement of everyone attending was captured beautifully in every photo. Thank you, Joie, for your kindness, flexibility, & hard work! You truly made us feel as special on our anniversary as if it was our actual wedding day.

    Professional and Caring

    Joie is just that---a joy to work with!! She is very professional, and super responsive. She answers all of my dumb questions, and very quickly. She really cares about the couples she works with, and she is very flexible with her time. I would recommend her to anyone needing a photographer. She's the best!

    Simple Joie Photography's reply:

    Thank you Cristy for sharing this! I love working with you and Micheal so far and I can't wait for your engagement session and of course your beautiful wedding next year! So thankful to have met you two and look forward to our journey to your happily ever after. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me with any thing else!

    A photographer who really cares about your vision

    We had a small private elopement at Muir Beach this summer that turned into a small wedding because we had some family members who 'had' to be there and Joie was so accommodating! I had multiple calls with Joie before the day to discuss the layout of the day and discuss photo ideas with her and she didn't miss a thing because she knew what was important to us! I'm so happy that Joie worked with us to create the fun poses and candids we wanted. Also, we appreciate her stepping back when we shared our private vows but were amazed at the imagery that she was still able to capture for us with her zoom lens. We love our photos so much and have several printed and are hanging in our home now. We highly recommend Joie to any couple looking for a caring photographer with your vision in mind!

    Best Wedding Photographer Ever!!

    Joie seriously took some of the best photos I have of me ever! I’m obsessed with our getting ready images that I almost opted out of because we’re just not photo people! Because we had the time, Joie recommended stepping in at the tail end of getting ready and captured the ladies and I being silly, them helping me with my hair, and us sharing some beautiful intimate conversations! I never thought these images would mean so much but I love looking back at them now because they really captured some wonderful emotional moments that I would have forgotten!

    Because we were planning a destination wedding in Sonoma, it was so refreshing to know that Joie could help recommend photo locations and vendors we still needed! Joie worked with us to make sure our timeline was perfect and even suggested some things I overlooked.

    I loved how she recommended that we had a private first look because we were able to just embrace each other and enjoy the moment without distractions. We love to dance so it also allowed us to just be us in front of the camera. Joie was able to capture our personalities so perfectly! We were so lucky we found her and couldn’t have asked for anything more in a wedding photographer!

    Joie is a Details Queen!

    I booked Joie last year because of her beautiful images but when we started to see images of her creations with flatlays on her Instagram, we couldn't wait for our wedding day! She asked me to gather the details I would need for the day prior to the wedding day and my bridesmaids and I were so impressed by her when she showed up with her little kit and just got to working. I love love love love (too many loves to count) my wedding photos and I can't help but think that I was so lucky when I snatched her as my photographer! Joie was such a pleasure to work with from our engagements to the helping us with timeline building and giving us ideas for what to plan for and of course our wedding day! I can't express in words how grateful I am to have had her hold my hand through the process.

    Amazing photos and experience with Joie!

    The photos came out truly gorgeous. Joie took photos for our engagement photos, ceremony, and reception - which were all on separate days. Joie has a directive style, which my partner and I really needed. It felt awkward posing at first, but she gave us confidence and made it fun. We TOTALLY understood why those poses were so important because she was able to help us recreate special, intimate moments on camera. She's able to uniquely capture details, color, and light. She could do posed as well as candid photos. She was reasonable priced and was flexible to work with our limited budget. Highly recommend!

    Highly recommend Joie! :)

    My husband and I got married in September, and we absolutely loved Joie's work on the wedding day! I knew that Joie would be a great for our wedding when we sent our first few emails and had the introductory video call. She was very responsive in communications, was attentive to wedding day details, and was overall a very cheerful and friendly person. We felt so comfortable chatting with her that we knew we'd be fine in front of her camera lens.

    We received the HD final versions of our wedding day photos in early November, and I want to emphasize how amazing the photos turned out! From the getting-ready photos to the ceremony...from the family group photos to the after-dinner dancing, Joie was able to capture the happiness and love on the big day. The pictures looked very natural and she was able to capture the very candid moments. It brings me so much joy to look over the photos and recall all the happy details from our wedding day.

    Joie has our best interest at heart!

    Joie made the whole process of our engagment and wedding photos so easy! I remember talking to her about ideas for our engagement session and she helped us narrow down a location that was meaningful to me and was able to capture some beautiful photos that we were so excited to share at our wedding. Our engagement session also helped us feel more comfortable in front of the camera as well as help us learn to pose so on our wedding day, my husband and I only needed a little direction.

    We loved the way Joie helped breakdown the day of timeline so that we could share a private first look and get some other groups photos out of the way so that we only had to do family photos after the ceremony and had more time to enjoy with our family for cocktail hour and the reception! Joie was also great about not interfering with the schedule of events but checked in with us when we had a moment and stole us away for some beautiful sunset photos on the property. You wouldn’t believe the kind of imagery she was able to capture unless you saw it yourself. She definitely captured the magic of the day!

    We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer with your best interest at heart! She was very thoughtful and felt like she was more of a family member or friend who wanted our day to be seamless. She was not only our photographer but helped tie up lots of little details throughout the day. We couldn’t have asked for a more experienced and well mannered professional to be there with is on our important day!

    Simple Joie photography is the one! Beyond 5 stars rating

    Simple Joie photography is beyond a 5 star rating. She was stranger and had became a friend instantly! She has been amazing since I’ve contacted her in need of a wedding photographer and after searching over 20 photographers that I’ve looked into, I was blessed to stumbled across Simple Joie photography. Her rates are affordable than most that I’ve came across and her work is amazing! The best part is that she understands financial issues and is willing to work with you on a payment plan. What photographer does that??? She really does stand behind her promises with caring for each and everyone of her clients and she takes her time to make those little details shine. She made us feel extremely comfortable in sharing our visions and was so patient and humble! We’ve just finished our complementary photoshoot with her in San Jose and may I just say... “WOW!” Working with her was at ease and she took her time to work with us in completing the picture perfect image. Also, because we needed the photos soon, she’s willing to deliver the photos to us in just a few days! We are so blessed to have found Joie to be our wedding photographer and can’t wait for her to capture our special day! If you’re one of the lucky ones who came across her page, grab her before someone else does. She is my secret jewel that I found! You definitely won’t regret contacting her.

    -A very happy bride (Mary)

    Great value, professional and easy to work with :)

    When we came across Joie in March while we were at the early stages of our wedding planning, we found with our phone conversation with her a lot of warmth in her voice and just how easy she was to get along with. She had great questions for us which I found very impressive! When we met for the first time to tour our chosen venue, I was so impressed again with how she took the reins and made great suggestions on where we could take pics. I could tell she was quick on her feet and it only cemented my confidence in hiring her. Come wedding day, she continued to impress us with her being able to capture all of the right moments and also coordinate with the other vendors and make quick last minute changes. She was prepared and had all of the right equipment. I am a former wedding photographer myself, so I could tell she had the chops to get it done right :) And, with the results now in our hands, Joie gave me the last and final impression of smiles, laughter, and happy tears after looking them over. Joie is truly a "joy" to work with and I can't recommend her enough. Thank you for all of your hard work and getting priceless moments that we'll cherish for many years to come!

    the best of the best

    Joie was amazing and we were so lucky to have her. She took both our engagement and wedding day photos. Joie made us feel comfortable during every step of the process (especially with a camera shy husband) and she was so easy to work with! She was very patient and professional in how she approached everything with great attention to detail. We are so happy with how the photos turned out and are (still) obsessed with all the memories she captured, even the engagement photos from almost 2 years ago. She definitely knows how to work with her surroundings and make it look effortlessly beautiful. We would definitely book her again in the future!

    Simple Joie Photography's reply:

    Thank you again for your kind words. You two are so dear to me, just know that your love made it easy for me to just capture you in your essence. I can't wait to share in more big moments to come!

    Joie is a phenomenal photographer, you can't believe some of the candid shots she got, they will be treasured forever. She was reasonably priced, the consummate professional and very flexible with our crazy schedule. She responded quickly, was open to any and all ideas and had several amazing ones of her own. I would recommend Joie to anyone. Her editing skills are on point, and she kept in touch with us through the process so we didn't get antsy waiting for our photos. She has an incredible eye for detail. I would hire her again and again!

    Wedding @ Taber Ranch

    Joie photography was the best selection I could have made for my wedding! Through out the course of the event, she was very helpful with suggestions not necessarily regarding with photography. I really appreciated that gesture! The photos she captured through out the event were simply magical, I was amazed! I was a very shy bride and she was patient with me, I didn’t want to get out of my bubble. Over all, Joie photography helped my special day go by smoothly! Thank you Joie!

    From the beginning of the process, Joie was very easy to communicate with, understood the vision we had for our special day, and how we wanted it captured. She was super flexible, moderately priced, creative, and overall a delight to work with. Our wedding photos are GORGEOUS and we couldn't be happier!

    Simply perfect! After searching for so long for a photographer, we were blessed to have found Joie. Yosemite is very scenic and she scouted out the perfect locations for us. There were no shots that were left out. EVERY photo is beautiful, the hard part is choosing which ones to print.
