the Joy of photography ..... dare to be different

Joy is an absolutely amazing photographer. She was the first and last photographer I met with for my wedding. I had no doubt in my mind she was perfect not only for our photos, but perfect for me as well. It was very important that I have a photographer I could connect with. We had an amazing and fun time with her and her assistants during our engagement session and especially at our wedding. Everything went smoothly and we didn't have to worry about a thing. She is very professional with her shoots and makes you feel like you've known her for years - she jumps right in with you, your family and your friends. The pictures turned out awesome and we all had a fabulous time. - Joy you were a treat to work with and were by far the best money we spent on our entire wedding. Thanx soooo much!

    P.S. Get the guest book - worth every penny - spectacular, guests will love it!!

For those of you who haven't booked me as your wedding photographer yet, it's not too late!  As long as you book before the event, you are more than welcome to come and be pampered as well!

I hope to see all of you there!  I am looking forward to getting to know all of you better so on your wedding day I know your personality better.

Your photographer and friend,

Joy
