    Thank you Jenny!

    Jenny was our wedding photographer, and my husband and I absolutely loved working with her! She is so sweet and her sunny disposition was an added bonus to the whole experience. Before the wedding, she met with us to do a walkthrough of the venue and used her aesthetic eye to point out the best places to take the pics, and also took into consideration some of the "must have" pics that we wanted.

    On the day of, Jenny was so awesome and efficient and made the whole photo taking process seem natural! She balanced the two different settings of the formal indoor church ceremony with the relaxed outdoor Italian/Mediterranean/California garden reception with ease, directing us to pose/be natural and put forth our best selves (in other words, the best angles of ourselves! :))

    When we got our final photo set, my husband and I were so extremely happy and immediately shared it with all of our friends and family! The photos were gorgeous, dreamy, had tons of bokeh , and delicate-- Jenny truly captured each moment. We literally stared at the photos for 3 hours straight when we first got them, and felt as if we were reliving our wedding day all over again with our closest friends and family. She was able to capture different perspectives which was great because we saw the wedding through the lens of the guests, and even saw parts/aspects of our wedding that we didn't get see on the day of!

    Overall, we highly recommend Jenny as your photographer, and have already recommended her to all of our friends and family!

    Jenny Soi is a rising star in the wedding photography world, and we are so lucky we got her!

    After countless hours researching photographers, we came across Jenny’s work and fell in love. Her photos are absolutely gorgeous—light filled, filmic, stunning. They have a very natural look, while also having a special cinematic quality.

    Jenny was a dream to work with. She’s extremely professional and responsive, and was our photographer, stylist, and consultant all in one. For our engagement shoot and wedding planning, she provided tons of tips and ideas. She has an excellent aesthetic, and she goes above and beyond to help you.

    For the engagement shoot, she found us the perfect location in Sonoma. She directed us very naturally, even though we usually aren’t good at taking photos, and we had so much fun on the shoot. The photos turned out luminous and elegant, as if they came out of a magazine spread.

    We were blown away by our wedding photos. They’re timeless and romantic, and beautifully capture memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. She guided us through the day seamlessly, making sure we got all the shots we needed. Our favorites are the stunning sunset shots with the city skyline in the background.

    Jenny is just the sweetest person. We loved hanging out with her and having her positive energy at our wedding. We highly recommend her, and we can’t wait to work with her again!

    Jenny has shot for my family as well as for my online clothing business (lifestyle shoots for our blog and social posts primarily), and we just love working with her! She is incredibly talented, has a great eye for details, great at making us feel at ease, especially since I'm not the best at knowing what to do in front of the camera. Jenny never fails to capture the best of us even when at the moment I'm not sure how the shoot is actually going (especially when our daughter gets crazy silly and doesn't follow directions). Whenever I receive her galleries I'm just so thrilled. All of my favorite photos of our family have been captured by Jenny. Thank you for all the wonderful memories, Jenny!

    Jenny did my engagement and wedding shoot. Normally I am a 9.5 out of 10 on the hot scale on my best days, but Jenny's photos made me a 12 out of 5. When you think about it there are really just two options in life. Number 1: Hire Jenny. Number 2: Be uggggg in your pictures.

    We lovedddddddddd working with Jenny! Not only did she work with us on professional head shots for our business (which felt more like a blissful engagement session), we also worked on multiple collaborations with her on wedding style shoots and the end product is always incredible! Those images go on to be featured on amazing publications so brides if you want a stylish published photographer - Jenny is it!

    On a more personal level Jenny is kind and patient but knows how to get things done - exactly what you want in a photographer! Her work is amazing and you will cherish those memories forever. Her price point is great and worth every penny and will treat you with respect and calmness.

    Speaking as a professional wedding planner: I highly highly recommend her services to business professionals and brides! Reach out to her and you'll see what we mean :) FIVE STARS!

    Jenny is absolutely amazing! Our wedding photos are beautiful and her and her assistant were very easy to work with. They were both very patient and everyone felt really comfortable with them. Jenny definitely went above and beyond for our photos. I can't wait to see the physical album (which I completely lagged on choosing the photos).

    Jenny was very accommodating with our engagement and wedding requests.

    During our engagement shoot, she went above and beyond. She even made us props for our dog!

    She arrive on time for all our appointments and it was nice to have Jenny handle our wedding. Working with her was great because she was dependable and took the pressure off our shoulders. Working with her was a pleasure and I recommend hiring her again.

    Jenny was great! We managed to get her for our wedding fairly last minute and she was very helpful, had great suggestions and guidance on poses, locations for the shots, etc. The pictures turned out great and she is super nice.

    Jenny shot our city hall wedding with 20 guests. She was super easy to work with, starting with arranging the logistics and developing a schedule and going through poses for us. Then disaster struck.... One of the judges left so we were running 55 minutes behind schedule. Luckily, Jenny builds in a lot of cushion and was very flexible in changing the schedule. More importantly she was very calm throughout the process, which helped keep me, my family, and my very worried mom calm.

    Jenny was so easy to work with, and helped keep all of us relaxed and happy. She gave very helpful tips on how to stand, and knew all the great spots and backdrops. My husband hates photographs (we were at the Taj Mahal and he would only take two photos!!! Ughhhhh) and our photos normally look really awkward and stiff, but Jenny's tips really helped!! The process actually was really fun, and our wedding photos look bright, romantic, and natural! She captured all the moments, and we got the beautiful family portraits we wanted, plus some more really cute photos I never would have thought of (LOVE our running photos!!). I highly recommend Jenny, and I'm so thankful for the beautiful wedding photos!!!

    Ps: my husband told me the next day that he actually had fun taking the photos, and that Jenny was very nice. That is very, very high praise, considering he normally give me a one minute time limit to take photos when we go on vacation.

    awww, Monica ! I'm so happy that your husband had just as much fun as we did! :) Always a goal!

    Jenny is an amazing photographer for both weddings and portraiture. Her style and sweet demeanor will put you to ease as he creates artful photographs. Her eye for beauty, style and techniques are very high quality work, which is classic and will definitely stand the test of time!

    We hired Jen to do our wedding photography and we seriously could not have picked a better photographer to work with. From the get-go- I was so impressed with her materials, professionalism, preparedness and how quickly she understood what I was looking for. I am really picky about photos and how I look so I sent her a laundry list of poses I wanted/dont wants, a full Pinterest board (that was probably overwhelming) and lots of correspondence right up until the day-of. She was SO accommodating with all of the things I kept throwing over to her- she was totally on board with all the style/specifications I wanted (and I have a lot). On the day-of, we had a schedule mishap (due to my parents) and I couldn't imagine anyone else there with me to keep me calm and steady even though we were 1.5 hrs behind schedule. She somehow still fit all our pictures in under a pretty stressful schedule on my end- she was extremely efficient, adapted to the venue at lightning speed and got all the best shots in. She was also really good at making us feel and look natural- our first look/wedding party pic sessions were probably the parts I enjoyed most about our whole day because of how fun they made it for us. :) Her and her partner were flawless in working together to tag-team since we were short on time. I got multiple compliments from other guests on how good the photographers were - capturing all the candids/stills when we weren't there. They also came up with awesome, creative ideas for poses, lighting, props, etc.. that I would never have thought of myself. And then our sneak previews came just a few days after the wedding- we were FLOORED by the pictures. I am not exageratting when I say they look like they belong in a bridal magazine. They are so much more beautiful than anything we could've imagined. I am still obsessed with looking at them!! Cannot thank you enough again!!!!!!

    My husband and I are so happy to have had Jenny as our wedding photographer! She is a true professional and the absolute sweetest person to work with. As we were still in the early planning process, she was super patient and even shared ideas from her own experience to help us out (my husband and I were trying to figure out the logistics of including a Chinese tea ceremony into our regular wedding ceremony, and she sent photos from her past photoshoots to show us how other couples have accomplished this). As we kept making changes to our plans, Jenny was always flexible and made changes to her own timeline accordingly.

    On the day of the wedding, Jenny's positive and cheerful attitude was so infectious - the best person to have with you all day on your special day! At one point, my bridesmaids and I took longer than scheduled getting ready and we were running behind schedule. My instinct was to start rushing, but Jenny did such a great job keeping us calm and making sure that we got back on schedule while still getting everything we needed done. Throughout the day, she and her partner, Linda, worked really well together capturing great shots and scoping out beautiful locations both at and around our venue. We received our photos 5 weeks after our wedding and they look gorgeous!

    Jenny was an overall pleasure to work with. We highly recommend her and can't wait to have the chance to work with her again!

    Jenny was a dream to work with! She really made us feel comfortable during the engagement shoot where she got to know us as a couple and we got used to being in front of the camera. It was even easier on the wedding day having her there and providing direction where necessary. She was never pushy and super respectful of family members who may have been difficult to corral. She got all the pictures we wanted and even with little direction from us, she could handle her responsibilities without too many questions. We couldn't imagine a better photographer! Sneak peeks were provided the next day so we got to relive the day already :)

    Jen and her crew were amazing on the day of my wedding! I love Jen's work, as soon as I saw her photos on her website I knew she was 'the one' lol She was easy to communicate with, her response time on answering my question(s) were very quick, and as a busy bride that's a plus in my book. Jen and her two assistants were very professional. She did such a great job capturing every moment at my wedding. I would highly recommend her!

    Jenny was the sweetest person to work with. I was referred to Jenny by a friend and I was immediately drawn to her photos. After admiring her website for a few weeks, I contacted Jenny to schedule a consultation with my fiancé and I. Over coffee, we discussed her style of photography and what our vision was for our wedding. A latte and pastry later, we know we wanted to book Jenny even though our wedding wasn’t for another 1.5 years away. My priorities was booking the vendors that I want first choice and not to settle with anyone. I’m so glad I was able to book Jenny and have her be my wedding day photographer. We stayed in touch for the next 1.5 years and even created a Pinterest board to show her our “must have” photos. On the day of the wedding, Jenny arrived on time, set up and started shooting right away. We had a long wedding day and multiple venues and Jenny and her second shooter, Linda, was able to accommodate our schedule. The whole day went by so quickly and you don’t even notice cameras in your face, which we appreciated. Jenny made the day very comfortable and fun for us. We just got our photos back after 5 weeks and they are beyond gorgeous. All the photos turned out so beautifully. Jenny’s talent radiates in her work. We’re so pleased to have found such a talented photographer with a personality to match. I hope to work with Jenny again in the future. She was a dream to work with and exceeded expectations. Highly recommended!!!

    Great at a capturing all emotions! Even the most non-lovey-dovey couples. We worked with Jenny for our engagement session, tea ceremony, and wedding. She has great ideas in addition to listening to her clients' wants. Jenny is also one of the sweetest gals we've met throughout the wedding planning process. Can't wait to work with her again when we reach the next milestone in life!

    I am always so impressed and pleased by Jenny Soi's work. She is beyond talented, creative, patient, great energy, and professional when it comes to photography. Her style of work is very soft, romantic, and dreamy. Jenny did my engagement shoot, pre-wedding shoot, and bridesmaids shoot. I am excited to have her shoot my maternity, newborn, and every future events I will have! She is AMAZING and fun to work with! She made me feel so beautiful and confident during those photo shoots. My husband isn't a picture person but she still managed to make him feel comfortable being in front of the camera.

    My Husband and I wanted some photos shot for our 1 year anniversary! I contacted Jenny through her website and she was quick to respond to our questions and concerns and professional in all her emails and calls. We found her prices to be very reasonable and since we just got married a year ago, we know the going rate for a good photographer.

    Jenny was very approachable when it came time to take our photos. She made my husband and I very comfortable, was able to get a lot of natural poses and laughter out of us and it showed in our photos. Jenny's style is really unique since she uses BOTH film AND digital cameras. We got a great mix of super clear and crisp digital photos as well as super soft and naturally lit film photos and to my surprise, they were ALL untouched and perfect!

    Having taken engagement and wedding photos, I can see a big difference in Jenny's work. She is careful about taking each and every shot but definitely not slow! She is assertive and directed my husband and I in every pose, fixed my bangs when the wind blew, and took the time to walk over and adjust us so we looked as natural as possible. Aside from Jenny's photos, this was my favorite thing about her because her directions helped us look dreamy and comfortable. Once you take photos, you may realize you have no idea where to put your hands or how to place them in a natural way but Jenny takes care of it all and is so sweet in her directions!

    Overall, we had an excellent experience with Jenny and I have already decided we will take photos once a year with her!

    THANK YOU JENNY!
