Sacred Image Photography

Choosing a photographer was one of the most important selections I made in my wedding planning. I'd like to share my experience with Jaylene. Hopefully, it will give you one less decision to fret over, other then her availability on your special day :)

Before I had ever heard of Sacred Image Photography, I had viewed several websites and blogs, attended multiple bridal shows and talked with several photographers. I relentlessly thumbed through numerous wedding magazines in search of a photographer that exhibited "UNIQUENESS". I was given Jaylene's name and website from a vendor that I had visited. I checked out her site and was very intrigued with her talent in capturing movement, style, modernism and naturalness. Finding a photographers work you like is only half the quest. Equally important, is finding one that listens to your ideas, offers suggestions to make things better and one who has a clear understanding of your vision. Within 15 minutes of our first meeting, I knew I wanted Jaylene to be my photographer. She is very passionate about her work and has an eye for unique. She is super easy to work with and has the ability to set you at ease. The end result is stunning photographs.

When tears fill your eyes as you're viewing your wedding photos on line, you know you made the right decision. At that moment, I felt as if I were experiencing my wedding day all over. Jaylene has this ability in capturing your emotions of joy, elation, surprise, love, excitement, and playfulness with each image. Plus, you actually get to see things you missed because you were a nervous wreck!

One last thing I would like to share, speaks volumes for who Jaylene is and the pride she puts into her final product to make her client happy. For several weeks, we had been working on selecting photos for my bridal, boudoir and wedding albums. She knew I loved the color purple but we were having a bit of a challenge finding exactly what I wanted with the "album companies". I ended up choosing very different colors from my initial requests, yet very pretty options. Once in agreement with all the details, she began working her magic in designing the layouts. Right before she was ready to submit the orders, she contacted me and said she found a "new" album company that had exactly what I was looking for. She did mention the company's design specifications were different from our previous selections and she would need to start over, but would be happy to do so.

She is a perfectionist in her work and in pleasing her clients. Jaylene has my highest recommendation and not to mention, was my most favorite vendor to work with!

Jaylene was an absolute blast to work with. We absolutely adored her style and loved her personality and professionalism. She makes you feel compfortable in front in her presence and in front of the camera. From our fun engagement shoot involving all sorts of props to our Wedding day "detail" shots, she captured every special moment on film. She is helpful, sincere, and really gets to know her clients through complimentary meetings and emails. She truly captured the essence of who we are as a couple and I don't think that we could have made a better choice anywhere. We can't wait to continue our relationship with her and I definatley recommend her to anyone searching for photographer for engagements, weddings, bridals, even baby bump and new born pictures (she also did my new sister-in-laws maternity and new born pics - absolutely fabulous).

If you need a photographer, you most definately will not be disappointed with Jaylene - she will go above and beyond in every instance!

Jaylene did an amazing job with our wedding in April. I can't imagine there is a better photographer than her in Houston. I had so many of my guests tell me how much they enjoyed her personality (she is so friendly and funny and really knows how to relate to all different types of people), and then they gushed over her talent and skills once they saw the photos posted in the online gallery. We purchased a package that included an engagement session, and unlike many wedding photography studios in town, Jaylene doesn't send an assistant to do your engagement photos. She did the engagement session herself and used it as an opportunity to get to know us and our style. Once we saw the engagement photos online, we knew we had made the right choice - I have several of our engagement photos in our office, and I have had people tell me that we look like models (trust me, we're not, and they weren't just being polite!). The albums she puts together are contemporary but also incorporate all the classic stuff your parents want to see :). Also, she offers tiny little 2" x 2.5" color replicas of your wedding album that you can buy and give out to family/friends. They are awesome!

It was pouring rain the day before and the day of our wedding. Seeing as our wedding was supposed to take place in a garden, we were disappointed with the weather. BUT, Jaylene came up with all these creative ideas for getting photos outside with umbrellas, rubber boots, etc. Those pictures came out so great that we were HAPPY it rained!

Seeing as the online album had like 600 shots, we were having a heck of a time narrowing down the list for the album, but Jaylene emailed back and forth with us 3 or 4 times a day for like a week with suggestions/recommendations until we finally settled on our list of images. She is just so helpful, and she makes sure that you feel confident and comfortable from the time you first meet her. I just can't say enough how thrilled we are with the job she did for us. I can say, however, that we have found our family photographer for life, and I can't wait till we start having kids so we can use her for a maternity session!

Jaylene did my Engagement, bridals and wedding pictures. She did an amazing job! She is very creative! If you are looking for a great photographer give her a call! I will use her in the future!
