Jason has outstanding artistic talent and qualityof output is exceptionally good. He captured great shots of our graduation party. Unfortunately, he is also very very expensive.

I got married six months ago and fully believe that hiring a photographer is the most important decision a couple can make when planning their wedding. Other things may seem more important but after the day itself was over, what you have left are pictures and Jason at Illume Photography is hands down the most amazing photographer a couple can hope for.

Jason is fantastic to work with. He not only made the experience for my husband, me and our family and friends SO much fun, he also made everyone feel really comfortable. In fact, aside from the family portrait time, I hardly noticed Jason was there because he wants to capture real moments, not posed shots. The result? The most incredible pictures and keepsakes.

I also can't speak more highly of Jason's artistic ability and really, gift, for creating albums. He has the most unique vision for taking pieces of pictures and different shots and combining them in ways that truly tell a story of our wedding.

We interviewed and met with other photographers, but we immediately clicked with Jason and I'm so glad we did because while the wedding is over, we'll have his gorgeous pictures and amazing album forever!!

iLLume Weddings is amazing! Jason went above and beyond what we ever imagined. He always answers quickly, and never makes us feel bad about asking the same silly question. Jason helped us find the perfect photo for our custom thank you notes. Our photos were ready to be seen much faster then my friends. Besides the detail photos my husband and/or I are in almost every photo, but I usually didn't even realize he was standing there. He knows how to move you along so that a fight doesn't happen with family. Jason captured my husband's reaction to the engraving in his ring, Jason actually had him look at it because I didn't know how to do it. He works great with the other vendors for a smooth day. The photos are amazing, I cannot imagine having choosen a different photographer. Jason and crew are worth every single penny!

Illume Weddings Photography is amazing. We had so many GREAT pictures it was hard to pick which ones we wanted! Our Album is to die for too, not only is it a wonderful album but it tells the story of our magical day. Jason is wonderful to work with he makes you feel at ease! If you choose to work with Illume Weddings I know you will not be disappointed and you will get unbelievable pictures like we did. Jason does a wonderful job of catching the little moments that you don't even know are happening and doing it all in a way that you don't even know he is there taking pictures. He is an amazing photographer. We highly recommend Jason to everyone we talk to that is getting married!

Illume was fantastic! Our photos are awesome.. having the hardest time choosing our favorites.
Everywhere I looked.. they were right there.. getting every shot and special moment at all times.
We couldn't be happier.

The single most important part of selecting the various wedding vendors was the photographer. I have boxes and boxes of pictures at home. Every minute of my life is documented and stored somewhere in my garage in one of many, many boxes. Illume was the first stop on my list, and little did I know would be the last. I walked into the studio and it was like a museum for me. I didn’t want to leave; I could have looked at the pictures all day long. I met with Jason and I knew this was it. We got along so well and had a lot of laughs before we even started to talk about the specifics. I knew that he understood how important the photos were to me, and I knew he would absolutely capture every detail to really make the memories last a lifetime. The more photos he showed me, the more excited I became. I couldn’t wait to see my wedding photos, and the wedding was still a year away!! I spent many hours looking at all of the wedding photos on the Illume website. The expressions and moments which Jason captured were amazing. The pictures were so natural and genuine; they really captured the emotions of the people in them.
What was your favorite wedding photo?: Do I have to pick one??? As a general statement - probably most of the photos where I wasn't looking at the camera. The candids captured so many incredible expressions, feelings, and emotions.
How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day?: Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits? The only disruption I can think of is when Jason caught me on the dance floor to tell me they were leaving. I was so bummed! I wanted him and his crew to stay all night! To me, picking the photographer was the single most important part of my wedding. The only time I really knew any of them were there was of course during the formal portraits. Aside from that - they were all like "secret agents" capturing every move we made on camera! Looking back at the pictures - I saw so many shots where I had no idea my picture was being taken!
What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers?: Jason was so flexible! He offers a few different wedding packages - each with the opportunity to substitute a few things here and there. We ended up with the things we wanted the most. Albums, prints, the photo slideshow, more than 1 photographer. We weren't confined to each thing in the package and end up with things that weren't as important to us as others were.
How did the photographer make you and family comfortable?: Within the first few minutes of meeting Jason, there wasn't a question about how comfortable we all would be with having him and his team there at our wedding. Our personalites just clicked. Jason is easy going, laid back, professional - but doesn't take himself too seriously. To me, those qualities were great and I knew I was making the right choice.

Illume is the best! Our wedding photos turned out better than we'd hoped - totally natural and beautiful. They were able to capture our most memorable moments.
Asside from the photos, they were very easy to work with and made taking pictures part of the fun. And, after the party, Illume helped me to create the perfect album. They are truly a one-stop high class shop!
