⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We truly cannot say enough good things about Jessica and Ryan. From the moment we received our photos, we were absolutely OBSESSED. Every single image feels magical, emotional, and so us. Their artistry, their eye for light, and the way they captured the feeling of the day is beyond anything we could have hoped for. Looking through the photos felt like reliving the day all over again, and we genuinely could not be happier. They are a DREAM TEAM. On the wedding day itself, Jessica and Ryan brought the most immaculate, calming, joyful energy. They didn’t feel like “just” photographers they felt like friends, like people you instantly trust and want around during such an intimate moment. Their presence made everything feel natural, relaxed, and fun, which made such a difference for us. Jessica was incredible at keeping everything running smoothly and guiding us through the day with such care and ease. I felt completely taken care of at every step, and I’m endlessly grateful that she made sure we got photos in that divine winter light I had been dreaming of. From the bottom of both Talon’s heart and mine: thank you for creating memories we will cherish forever. You are both truly wonderful, and we feel so incredibly lucky to have had you with us on one of the most important days of our lives. 💛

Jessica has photographed me 4x now and I couldn’t be happier with the consistent and utterly excellent results. Being a photographer myself, I am not as comfortable in front of the camera as I am behind it. Every time I have worked with Jessica she is on point, attentive, and extremely easy to be around. She is the only photographer who has ever been able to capture my essence, and my essence is FAST! I cannot sit still when the camera is on me, awkward robot... yes that’s me. Jessica always knows the right thing to say to help me settle in and become comfortable though conversation and calm energy. I adore her and know you will too!

Full review ahead. I would give the Refinery Photo Studio 100 stars if I could. Studio/Atmosphere: Jess has truly gone above and beyond to make her studio cozy, warm and welcoming to all. She has thought of EVERYTHING you could need to touch up before/during/after the shoot -- a clothing steamer, hair straightener, curling iron, magnifying makeup mirror, qtips/cotton balls, spaces to hang multiple outfits, etc. It is obvious that she puts in a huge amount of thought into what her clients could need. For me, the steamer was a lifesaver after I realized my pants had gotten SO wrinkled in my bag. Additionally, the inside photography space is INCREDIBLE. Ryan and Jess have gone above and beyond to create a versatile room of different textures, styles and overall feel. Jess took the time to give us her thoughts on what background/style would match our outfits/vibe which was awesome. Photoshoot: Jess is professional, creative, warm, kind, perfectionistic, and has an amazing eye for even the tiniest of details. I was nervous to be in front of a camera, but Jess and Ryan made the experience fun, engaging, and worry-free. They made us feel at ease which made our photos turn out better than I could have imagined. Jess personalized the shoot to get the poses/backgrounds that were important to us as well. A portion of our photos were taken inside and the other half were taken outside! To my surprise, my (now) fiance, proposed during the second half of the shoot, and Jess captured the best candid photographs as well. The photos: Amazing- 1000/10. Jess perfectly captured our personalities and an amazing life event. She even took the time to crop/edit the photos in a way that best supported what we wanted to use them for (e.g wedding website, Christmas cards, facebook/instagram images for sharing, printed photographs, etc.). As I mentioned, she truly goes above and beyond to make the experience personalized. Overall, I cannot recommend Jessica and Ryan at the Refinery enough.

We had a blast with Jessica! This was my first time with a professional photographer, and she made me feel super relaxed and comfortable. The photo turned out beyond my expectations, and I'm so excited to share our holiday card with all of our family and friends! Jessica's services are way more accessible than I had realized professional photography could be, and we absolutely plan to work with her again in the future.

Jessica is amazing! The best photographer I have experienced! She had creative ideas; was succinct and deliberate when she took photos (didn’t waste your time); was efficient and allowed for many poses and settings; was pleasant , professional and friendly. I cannot saying enough great things about The Refinery Photo Studio!
