Exceptional quality and enjoyable experience

Our experience with Janis could not have been better! My partner and I despise getting photos taken, but Janis made the whole process such an easy and enjoyable experience. He kept us laughing and smiling all day and so to our surprise, we had such a fun time and felt so comfortable. The photos look perfectly natural and like they're straight out of a magazine. They're exceptional quality, there are tones of images, and all of the special moments of our wedding day have been captured. Outstanding photography coupled with a warm, genuine and professional photographer!

Absolutely amazing.

Janis was nothing short of fantastic, and the end result he delivered was resplendent. We could not be happier with the photos, the level of service we received, his attitude, professionalism and experience received were exceptional.

Thank you Janis!

We were lucky enough to have Janis photograph our wedding in April. Janis is so warm and kind and immediately set us at ease immediately set us at ease despite us not being the most natural in front of the camera.
Janis has an amazing instinct and can immediately spot a good shot or the best lighting making all of his photos beautiful! He managed to capture the emotions of the day perfectly and we have even been able to see some details that we missed through his amazing photos.
We received the preview photographs within days which was extraordinary and last week we received our full compliment of over a 1000 photos! Janis' editing is gorgeous, bright and natural, just perfect.
Thank you so much Janis we couldn't have asked for anyone better to capture our special day, I would recommend you to anybody!

Incredible

Janis was the most wonderful photographer to capture our very special wedding day. He knew the venue well and all of the best places to get the perfect shot. He was so kind and patient with us and made sure to get every picture we wanted. He gave such great direction and knew how to get us to loosen up. We are so grateful to have had Janis as a part of our wedding day. His photographs are stunning, beautifully edited, and his turn around time for previews and final albums was very quick. I would highly recommend Janis to any engaged couple looking for someone to capture their wedding (or any other occasion).
