Dianne was the photographer at our wedding, and she was terrific! Our whole family and all of our guests loved her. She was professional, friendly, and energetic. During the whole ceremony and at the reception, she managed to capture all of the big, important moments, as well as many sidelights, without being intrusive. We are so glad that we worked with Dianne—she helped make our wedding day fantastic, and preserved countless memories for us in the pictures she took! - Nancy and Paul
When we first met Dianne at the Brazil Room wedding fair we instantly felt comfortable and excited with her approach to wedding photography. Dianne is so much more than a photographer; she's an artist. We would describe her style as a blend of photojournalism and art, which is exactly the creative but natural feel we wanted to remember our wedding day by. She takes the traditional formal portraits, but also captures emotions and special moments with her camera. She was also incredibly flexible with working within our budget and tailoring her services to our needs. She really made sure she understood exactly the feel we wanted to convey in the event and then she put together a beautiful package of prints and digital photos that we could share with our families. We can't emphasize enough that the way Dianne treated us was wonderful, friendly, and down to earth. This is important since other photographers we met were all much more interested in the bottom line ($). Of all the vendors that we worked with, we were happiest from start to finish with Dianne and would feel comfortable recommending her to anyone considering a wedding photographer. If you're looking for someone who is passionate and creative and loves what they are doing then we think you'll be happy. - Thomas and Loddie
I hired Dianne to take pictures of me and my teenage son. She suggested a great location with lots of different options for backdrops and lighting. We took a lot of photos and she captured the vibe of our relationship and personalities perfectly. She was very thorough, professional, and had lots of creative suggestions that we worked with. Lastly, she was able to work within our budget and got the completed images to us with a quick turn-around. We are very satisfied with the finished product and definitely recommend her services. - Mitch
We highly recommend Dianne Jones! I have been to many weddings where the photographer ran the show, made contrived poses, and generated unnecessary stress. Dianne is totally the opposite. She is comfortable to be around and put guests, as well as us, at ease. Her photo journalistic style captured what was happening, not trying to control it. Her art background really shines through with her choices of shots. Something I loved so much are her still life photos - our simple cake became much more interesting in the photo she made. It is also a great luxury to have the right to all the photographs after the wedding. - Christine
Working with Dianne is a total pleasure. She is really great at putting you at ease if you are not naturally comfortable in front of the camera like myself, and has a strong visual and narrative sense. Before we began to shoot she asked me questions to really understand what I was trying to convey and to whom, and it was really helpful for me to state my intentions and helped our shoot proceed with ease. I would highly recommend her for professional and personal portraiture! - Paula
Dianne photographed our wedding at the Brazil Room and we are so glad we worked with her. Dianne is a warm and communicative person who will start off by finding out what is most important to you as a couple. She has a real sense of how to frame a photo, and how to capture important details. During our event, she is never in the way, yet always there for that photo moment. She has tremendous experience with the Brazil Room's features, lighting, and architecture, and her photos truly capture what a special place it is. We look at our wedding photos every few months, and when we look at the photos, we able to feel the essence of the day - it's all right there. I worked with Dianne again recently to offer a photo session as my gift for my parents' wedding anniversary. My folks are pretty shy, but Dianne's warmth really helped them relax and allowed us to make lasting memories of them. I know I will be so grateful in ten years to have these priceless photos. - Shana
