Testimonials

"I LOVE the pictures Jiawen took for me and my husband!!!! She made us feel so comfortable during the photoshoot. She has an infectious joy during the photoshoot. In the end our pictures were exactly what I was hoping for; they were bright, happy, and highlighted the relationship my husband and I have. Overall it was such a great experience and I love my photos. I will definitely ask her to take our photos again. "

Bethany + Kevin

"I have never taken professional photos and was hesitant and nervous about taking engagement photos, but I am so glad I took them with Jiawen! She made me and my fiancé feel very comfortable and her husband/assistant, Alex, also gave great tips for posing! They asked us great questions and got us feeling like we were just hanging out and having fun. I also gave Jiawen a few ideas and inspiration for the photo shoot beforehand, and she delivered! The photos came out exactly I had envisioned, if not better. "

Irona + don

"We had the BEST & most FUN photo session we've ever had with Jiawen! Her heart for people is so evident - and she naturally made us feel so comfortable the entire time, offering ideas but also being open to trying ours. And the photos came out AMAZING - we couldn't wait to change our profile pictures on all the channels  Don't even hesitate to book her for any of your photo needs!!! "
