J and A Photography - Pleasant Gap, Pennsylvania

J&A Photography = AMAZING. My husband and I did a maternity session and we are BEYOND happy with our photos. They are everything I wanted with that golden hour glow and more. I couldn't be happier with how they turned out.

Joel and Andrea were so patient with our scheduling issues for the session, very responsive in emails, suggested we wait to shoot on the "perfect weather day" for us, viewed the location ahead of time to make sure it's what we all had in mind, super friendly and awesome to be around and produced the photos very quickly. They also make you feel so comfortable when they're clicking the camera away.

By far one of the best photographers (and people) in the State College area. If you're looking for a photographer for your wedding, family portraits or maternity photos, J&A is your final answer.

Joel and Andrea photographed our wedding and were wonderful to work with. They both had a great sense of humor and put people at ease. Andrea was awesome with the younger members of our bridal party, and her antics were honestly very likely to put a smile on everyone’s faces, not just the kids’. Andrea and Joel were patient and helpful, not just the day of the wedding, but also as we discussed what to expect before booking and after, as we planned out the day. The pair also provided clear instructions that helped us, two very poor models, look photogenic. The photos they took were beautiful; they captured so much emotion throughout a very long day. We would recommend them to anyone else looking for fantastic photographers for their special day.

We worked with Joel + Andrea at a wedding in June at Raystown Resort. They were wonderful to work with. They kept on schedule with the timeline, they worked with the shots that the bride and groom definitely wanted from boat shots to reception shots. They were very pleasant the whole time and made everyone feel comfortable getting their portraits done! A+ work you guys!

Joel and Andrea photographed our wedding and we could not have been happier!! They were so kind and professional throughout the whole process. Their organization put us at ease on the big day. They were able to capture so many wonderful pictures of us, our family, and our friends a perfect mix of candid shots and portraits to remember the day! They had a eye for great composition and worked so well together that they blended right into the festivities. We felt that we could relax and enjoy and ended up with a beautiful, high quality photo album and digital pictures that we will cherish forever. We are so happy that we trusted J&A photography for our wedding we highly recommend them!

Andrea and Joel were simply amazing. From the first correspondence and working with them from across the country, to the day of the wedding, communication flawless. They completely understood our vision for the wedding and captured those moments perfectly. We met prior to the wedding and talked through the entire day and they helped set our minds at ease. They also scoped out the venue the day before the wedding to make sure we took photos is some beautiful spots. They were organized and professional, but they also cared so much and made the entire day so enjoyable. They are truly amazing at what they do and we had a blast with them the entire day. We cannot wait to find a reason to work with them again…maybe maternity photo shoot We 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer! Thank you so much Andrea and Joel!

Hired them for our wedding! They were beyond amazing!! Professional yet down to earth and fun loving! They handled difficult situations with ease. I cannot wait to see the pictures as they worked very diligently to capture everything we desired. We were so impressed by their enthusiasm and charisma. We were not disappointed at any point of the day. They also tried to help with problems unrelated to their job. Simply incredible and wonderful people/photographers.

I am a local Wedding Planner and have worked with before. They are a fabulous duo team that produces beautiful, high quality photography in a timely manner. Their demeanor on a wedding day is fun, kind, gentle, and so positive! I would highly recommend them for a wedding or any other photography needs.

We recently had our engagement session with Joel and Andrea, and I was THRILLED with the results! I'm often a little awkward and self conscious, but J&A made us feel comfortable, were good humored, and told us exactly what we needed to do for beautiful pictures. They were also very friendly and patient with our dog who was included in several of the shots. They even offered to babysit while we changed clothes! My fiance and I researched A LOT of photographers in central PA, and decided that J&A had the best quality and bang for the buck. They sent us slideshows so we could see a wedding shoot from start to finish. Their photos are consistently the perfect mix of classic, artistic, fun/goofy, and romantic photography. Our engagement photos made us certain that we chose the best wedding photographers, and we're very excited to have them! I would recommend them to anyone in an instant!
