I wholeheartedly believe in building relationships with my couples! It's so important to get to know who you're working with. You should feel comfortable around them so you can truly be yourself!

Testimonials from Clients
Joni really touched our hearts and became a friend during the 2 years we planned our special day.
There aren't enough words I can say or excellent photographs I can post on this review to properly express how amazing Joni Loraine Photography is. You're not just hiring a photographer. You're getting the experience of a lifetime. Joni really touched our hearts and became a friend during the nearly 2 years we planned our special day. A photographer is one of, if not THE most important purchase you make for a wedding. You've spent all this time, money, stress, blood, sweat and tears planning this wedding and you REALLY want a mediocre photographer to immortalize that day? You know that's not what you want. You want Joni Loraine Photography.
She spent countless hours working with us (both on the day of, our amazing engagement photos, editing, etc), giving us ideas, and I remember being blown away by the extensive timeline she had worked out. You walk into your wedding with a lot on your mind and you should know that if you hire Joni Loraine Photography, you won't have to worry about your photos blowing you away. You can just stop looking elsewhere for other photographers because you're wasting precious time that could be spent picking out table cloths, tasting desserts, or trying to decide if you want chargers under your plates or not. We found a photographer for life with Joni.

I can't imagine having worked with a better team on my wedding day.
From the moment we met Joni, we connected with her and knew she was the perfect photographer for us. From the start, Joni goes above and beyond for her clients. She is truly there for you and your spouse for EVERY step of the wedding process.
The engagement shoot was the perfect opportunity for us to really get to know her on a deeper level and she put both our minds at ease as she taught us the different poses like the pro she is. During the shoot, nothing felt awkward or forced; it was such a fun and romantic experience for us as a couple and the photos turned out better than I ever thought possible. My husband even commented on how much fun the experience was and how excited he was that we hired her for our big day.
Throughout the entire process, I was confident that we had hired the best in the business, which is such a relief when you’re in the middle of planning a wedding. On the wedding day itself, Joni and Chelsea were rock stars!!! Joni and Chelsea had the entire timeline on lock and worked seamlessly with our other vendors. They were incredibly organized, professional, and truly helped to make the day go as amazing as it did. I can’t imagine having worked with a better team on my wedding day. And most importantly, the photos from our wedding are the most incredible photos I have ever seen in my life. I truly can’t say enough great things about Joni. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, professional, caring, thoughtful, organized, and talented photographer... this is the ONE!

Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to her for transforming our wedding day into a fairytale.
We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Joni photograph our special day. From the initial consultation to the delivery of the final images, every aspect of our experience with Joni was nothing short of extraordinary. She has eye for framing, lighting, and the subtleties that make a beautiful photograph. She has a light and airy style that is unique and is gorgeous for wedding photos.
Our engagement session was wonderful and completely necessary for helping us get comfortable with poses and making my husband feel more natural in front of the camera. Joni effortlessly put us at ease, allowing us to be ourselves in front of the camera.
Her second shooter, Chelsea, was just as amazing and caught some great moments! We could not have done this day without them. Don't hesitate to put all of your trust in Joni and she will not let you down!
If you are in search of a wedding photographer who goes above and beyond, delivering not just photos but an unforgettable experience, look no further. Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to her for transforming our wedding day into a fairytale.

There are not enough words to describe how truly wonderful she is.
Joni is so incredibly talented and a one of a kind professional. From the very beginning, she was so easy to work with, answered all of our questions and went above and beyond in the planning process and during the wedding!
She provides a detailed information packet which was SO helpful in the planning process and checked in on us every step of the way through.
Additionally, both my husband and I are not comfortable in front of a camera and Joni made it so much fun to get our pictures taken. Truly never thought that I would enjoy the experience as much as I did.
There are not enough words to describe how truly wonderful she is, as well as each member of her team. Every bit of her work is absolutely GORGEOUS!
