Essence Photography LLC Reviews

Jan Pavelco is a phenomenal photographer. Her personality, professionalism, and attention to details makes her a top notch photographer. I used Essence for my engagement pictures as well as my wedding. On the day of my wedding I knew the photographers were there but there are many shots that I had no idea they were capturing. They captured every moment of my wedding day and made it really hard for me to narrow the pictures down for my wedding album. I fell in love with every picture they shot. They truly captured the "essence" of my special day. When I received my wedding album I fell in love with all of my pictures all over again. Jan managed to tell the beautiful story of our special day. I highly recommend using Essence Photography as I will be using her for future photo shoots!

Jan Pavelco of Essence is by far the best photographer I have met. She knows how to make a rainy day look wonderful, anxiety into grace, and your most precious day amazing. Essence incorporates consistently amazing photography without the ridiculous price. You are a friend, not just a client. I would use Essence for any and all of my photography needs :)

We truly enjoyed working with Jan Pavelco, Essence Photography. She is by far the best photographer! She is very nice , organized, honest, professional, and very pleasant to work with. She captured beautiful moments of our wedding day and created a gorgeous story -photo book that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. She takes the time to sit with you and answer any question you may have . Jan Pavelco is wonderful to work with and we truly enjoyed working with her ! Love always , Lana and Bahij Hadid

We are not only extremely happy with all of our pictures, we are also extremely happy to have had to opportunity to have you as our photographer and now as a firend. Thank so so much again! With Love, Britany & Daniel Castro

We enjoyed working with Jan Pavelco, from Essence Photography. We have nothing but nice things to say. She had us ALL laughing throughout our special day.

We have two kids and she was absolutely wonderful with both. She took such wonderful pictures. the pictures tell our story on our special day.

She is very prompt and sticks to a schedule. But at the same time doesn't rush or just snap pictures. Our day ran so smoothly, because of Jan. And trust me we are late for EVERYTHING!

She also took in consideration what we liked and didn't like. She read unless emails from me on ideas. So she also has patience too!

She is also reasonable on prices. I would say best in the Valley. We got great shots and did not have to take out a second mortgage!

A lot of our guest commented on how personable, how professional and fun she was!

Once our day was over, we sat down to go over all the beautiful pictures to put in our Sweetheart Album. It was so hard to make a decision on which ones to choose. They were all that good. She shot in total 576 pictures that day.

Once we chose we sat down with Jan and the creating began. We had gotten our Sweetheart Album back and I cried when I saw it.

I still look at our pictures and album and smile. I recommend Essence all the time to people.

So my recommendation: If you want to have fun with your photographer. If you want that special touch. If you want your story told as beautiful as ours.

Then choose Essence Photography!

Essence Photography photographed my wedding and I am so thankful everyday I look at a photo from it. Essense is fun and professional the entire step of the way. They are very organized, creative, easy to work with, and have your best interests at heart from the first intro meeting right down to finalizing your album. I would highly recommend Essence Photography to anyone; family or friend and I have! Jan Pavelco and her staff are geniuses with the camera and have the most amazing sense of the moment and how to capture it perfectly. Don't pass them by! Myself, at least five friends, and my sister haven't regretted it for a second! Essence is a family friend and will probably capture our children in their moments as well!
