Thank you to my wonderful clients for their kind words.

“Jess went absolutely above and beyond to photograph my surprise proposal at the Pena Palace in Sintra! I am so appreciative of her generosity, care, humor, patience, and professionalism — to name a few — that made our engagement so special. Not only is Jess an incredible photographer, she also offers a warm and welcoming presence that made us feel comfortable posing in front of the camera. Despite it being a blustery day, she gracefully captured me and my partner in a lovely variety of beautiful shots around the area. Her eye for the perfect angle and setting is unmatched. I would jump at any chance to work with Jess again and feel lucky to have found her to capture our special moment during our trip to Portugal. I recommend her for anyone's photography needs, hands down. (:”

“I've long admired Jess's photography (I mean, have you seen her incredible portfolio!?) and was thrilled to have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet her and do our engagement shoot in Lisbon, Portugal. The photos that Jess captured were absolutely magical and exceeded our expectations. She has an eye like no other photographer and her commitment to her craft shone through in every shot. These photos will be cherished for many years to come. If you have the opportunity to work with Jess, take it! Lastly, she put us at ease and created a relaxed atmosphere, making the process enjoyable and comfortable. That's huge coming from people who don't typically like being in front of the camera.”

100% would recommend! We really wanted to capture photos of our family while the kids are still babies but hate having our photos taken. We couldn’t have enjoyed our experience with Jess more! The shoot was so much fun and relaxed - and the results are incredible. Even the kids behaved 😅. Very grateful to have this talented photographer in Setúbal 🙏

“We had a very particular vision for our engagement shoot, and Jess made it come to life even more beautifully than we imagined it could. We really appreciate how well she not only understood the mood we wanted to create but added to the dreamy effect with her artistic eye and mastery of light. As everyone says, Jess’ relaxed and warm demeanor makes it easy to be yourself on camera. We’re so thrilled to have these photos that capture our love in such an authentic way. It’s truly a treasure!”

It's well known that when Jess points a camera at you and presses the shutter, that you're in for a treat. Jess made this feel so easy and comfortable. Her eye for style, line, and composition is evident in every shot she takes, and the result is absolutely stunning. She is so keen on capturing humans, and I love that I had the opportunity to be captured! Thank you Jess <3

"Jessica is an amazing photographer and her partner Sam was fabulous! They were professional, kind, and easy to work with.  Jessica expertly captures each and every moment even more spectacularly than you could ever believe.  Jessica and Sam were so patient, especially when it came to family photos and the different wedding group shot combinations.  We wanted to have a unique entrance to our reception and Jessica was very accommodating and open to all requests.  We literally can relive our wedding day by looking at the incredible photos.  Not only did her and Sam capture the perfect moments they also knew how to use the varying outdoor lighting to our advantage; the editing was impeccable and made the best pictures even more magical.  I couldn't imagine having anyone but Jessica and Sam photograph our wedding.  It truly was the best experience!  I would recommend Jessica Keener Photography a thousand times over!"

"Do you know Jess Keener? Of Jessica Keener Photography? You should. You should know her. Or at least, I mean, her work. Because her work is amazing. Like UH-MAZE-ING. She is relaxed, fun, and inspired. She knows her shit, like lines and lighting and color. But she will also work with you to make tiny adjustments to your stance or your movement or your position that make THE WORLD OF DIFFERENCE in your end-result photo. She is professional, both literally and representationally. She will pull you, the real you, out with a lens and lay you on film so that you think she probably cut out a piece of your soul like those 1800's people used to think. But it doesn't hurt. Not at all. In fact, she can keep it, because it's right there whenever you want to look at it, beaming out at everyone you've ever known and making them feel happy. Dang it, it makes YOU feel happy. My first photo shoot and it was an absolute pleasure."

Lee & Heather

Jess is seriously the absolute best to work with! She is calm and organized and super professional but also really lovely and fun to have around - if you want a photographer who is going to add to the wonderfulness of your day rather than the stress, she's your woman!

It can be hard being in front of a camera, but from the first moment of our engagement shoot (included in her packages), she did an awesome job of keeping us relaxed and enjoying the experience. She is so joyful and she has so many great ideas for shots to keep things fun and creative while still making sure you get those money shots that the family will be looking for!

Her turnaround time is unreal (like.... we're talking days) and the photographs themselves are absolutely stunning. The colors, the framing... so, so good. I can't recommend her enough!

"I am absolutely thrilled with the results from my 30-minute shoot with Jessica. Despite the short amount of time, we accomplished so much, and I was amazed at how seamlessly the session flowed. Jessica immediately understood my vision and delivered exactly what I wanted. Her fun, approachable nature, combined with her incredible talent and passion, made the experience truly enjoyable. Although I usually feel a bit uneasy in front of the camera, Jessica's warm and friendly demeanor made me feel confident and comfortable. From the moment we met, we connected effortlessly. The session felt like a delightful walk in the park with a dear friend, who pointed out the best spots to capture beautiful moments. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a professional, enjoyable, and highly successful photo shoot."

Jen & Duy

"Jess is an extremely talented photographer who makes the best of the environment around you to take extremely flattering photos. She did my engagement and wedding photos and they turned out phenomenal...we've received so many compliments on them. This is from somebody who is not very photogenic and does not enjoy having my picture taking. Jess is very professional, funny, responsive via email, and great to work with. I highly recommend her!!!"

Anna & Mike

"Jess is one of the best in the photography biz! I've gone to her for nearly everything - headshots, couple shots, etc., but this review is re: my wedding photography. Jess is such a joy to be around. She did our engagement photos and our wedding photos. Her infectious laugh puts you immediately at ease, especially if you're uncomfortable in front of the camera. She is so much fun! She comes from SCAD, so she obviously knows what she's doing - she is also an innate talent. You're getting high-quality photos with her, but she is very reasonably priced for the work she turns out, and she's flexible with schedules (unless she's booked solid, which I think she often is, so book her EARLY). She loves traveling, too - she did our engagement photos in Seattle, and our wedding in Savannah, GA. WE LOVE JESS KEENER!"

"I can write one thousand love letters to Jess about how wonderful she is, how she's a bright and happy and loving ray of sunshine that you want in your life, how hard she works and how incredibly fantastic she is at her job with Jessica Keener Photography, how comfortable she makes you feel and how she brings out the best in you and then captures it on camera, and I will still have only said, at most, 1/10th of all of the amazing and positive and appreciative and true things about her and her skill behind a camera.
