How couples describe working with Joy
Calm and unhurried
One step ahead
No pressure, no posing
Felt like ourselves
Every question answered
Caught every moment
In their words...
"We look at these photos and feel genuinely happy all over again."
We chose to elope because we wanted our wedding day to be entirely about us and Joy understood that. There was no pressure, no posing. Just the two of us, fully present. We look at these photos and feel genuinely happy all over again.
— Jess & Marcos
"We've never felt more like ourselves in a photo."
We're not people who love being photographed, and we were nervous about that going in. But Joy has this way of making you completely forget she's there, and the result is a gallery that genuinely looks like the two of us.
— Rachel & Tom
"Looking at our gallery felt like living our wedding day all over again."
The nervousness before the ceremony, the moment I saw him, the way we couldn't stop laughing during dinner... Joy caught all of it. I genuinely didn't expect to feel that emotional looking at photographs, but here we are.
— Emily & Connor
"Joy caught things we didn't even know were happening."
We'd been warned that the day goes by in a blur, and parts of it did. But looking at this gallery, I can feel every single moment of it. Joy caught things we didn't even know were happening. That's the part we'll never stop being grateful for.
— Maya & Daniel
"Our families still talk about how calm the day felt."
We were worried about the timeline, and she solved it before we even asked. She knew exactly how to build our whole evening, and we got to be fully present for it. Our families still talk about how calm the day felt.
— Sarah & James
"Holding it for the first time, I cried."
We booked Joy for the wedding and added the album after we saw the gallery. Holding it for the first time, I cried. Every page is a moment we'd forgotten we had. It's the one thing I'd grab if the house were on fire.
— Priya & Ethan
"Every question was answered before we thought to ask it."
From the first email to the last photo, she made everything feel effortless. Every question was answered before we thought to ask it. We never once wondered what came next, and the gallery was better than we imagined.
— Nora & Sam
