James Webb Photography

h our venue, and from our very first interaction, we knew we were in great hands. James brought such a warm, calm energy to the day, which made a huge difference during all the hustle and emotions of a wedding. His creativity and eye for detail truly shined through in every shot, and his personality made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera — even those who usually shy away from photos! One moment that especially stood out was when James helped my mom button up my wedding dress. It wasn’t something he had to do, but he stepped in with such kindness and grace, and it meant so much to both of us. James captured the day beautifully and delivered a collection of photos we’ll treasure forever. If you're looking for someone who’s not only talented but also genuinely caring and professional, James Webb is the photographer to book.

k with him and his assistant Laura added so much fun to our day. They both went above and beyond helping with boutonnieres and corsages and the veil and captured everything so beautifully. We can’t thank and recommend James and Laura enough!! We are so grateful to have our photos to look back on for a lifetime.

to meet with him. And then as soon we met him, we knew we had to have him photograph our wedding! He is such a nice person and also super creative. We did have some certain shots/areas that we wanted, but he also recommend additional spots and we really just let him do his thing and the photos came out beautiful!! His style is timeless so I know we will continue to cherish these pictures forever. He is also very communicative and responds in a timely manner to any questions. Definitely recommend his services!

at person who is fantastic at what he does , my pictures are amazing and I cannot wait to look at them many more times as the years go by ! Don’t hesitate to book him - and do so in advance !! Thank you again James for your kindness and sharing your talented craft !

great direction, and really rolled with the flow of everything! Our pictures are phenomenal. I knew James took beautiful pictures, but I could not have imagined they would be this great. He captured so many beautiful moments and I'm so excited to share these photos with all of our guests!

unning photos. I wanted pictures from my wedding that I could frame and hang on my walls, and less than a month after getting our pictures back, I already have three Smallwoods hanging on my walls. He is such a pleasure to work with and definitely brings the energy to keep you smiling in your photos all day. I will continue singing his praises and recommend him to anyone who is looking for a wedding photographer.

e perfect shot and we loved working with him! Truly the best! Would recommend him 10/10

the most important part for me as I was planning my wedding. I researched for weeks and once I came across James’ page I knew he was the one. The mood he sets for his pictures truly caught my eye. His style is also so unique and incredible. I absolutely fell in love with his style and all the pictures I saw on his Instagram page. He was such a joy to work with for our engagement shoot and such a blast to have at our wedding! He brought Tiffany as the second photographer on our wedding day and she was equally as amazing. Everyone knew where they should be, how they should be standing, and how to pose at all times. No time was wasted and we got EVERY shot we wanted before cocktail hour which was a huge plus for us. All of our friends and family were amazed at the photos James took and how much fun he was to be around. I absolutely cannot recommend James enough. As I said, the photographer was the most important vendor for us and James captured our vision perfectly. I would hire him again in a second!!! Thank you James for capturing all the magical moments of our wedding day. I truly cannot imagine this day without you!

ecial wedding day. James Webb exceeded my expectations. He was not only a creative genius, but he was also just a fun and personable guy to be around. I still get compliments to this day on the amazing engagement photos James created for us, and I cannot wait to see the wedding photos!

did our engagement shoot at Allaire State park (Jame’s recommendation). We explained the type of style we were going for and he hit the nail on the head with the location for the engagement photos. He dealt with our weird quirkiness and really embraced it. He was super easy to talk with and allowed us to be super comfortable too! Some of our favorite photos are ones that weren’t staged. He was able to really capture our true selves even though we are not photogenic people. We had a TON of shots we wanted the day off between our personal, couple, bridal party and family shots… but between James and his second shooter (Sophia Freeman) we were able to bang the photos out quickly before the ceremony so we were able to join out guests at cocktail hour. He did not miss a beat during the reception! We were shocked by the slideshow preview! Some of the photos, we felt would be on the cover of a magazine! We are anxiously waiting to see all the final photos from the entire day/night! I know for a fact we will be nothing less than thrilled with the final product! We have already made the decision (without him even knowing😂) to have James be the one to capture our precious moments in the future as we start a family. He definitely has forever customers with us! You will not be disappointed!

ons made us feel like models and came out beautiful!!! The day of our wedding he even had some sneak peeks already done to show at our reception and they were AMAZING!!

the process easy and fun! I highly recommend James as an engagement and wedding photographer!

im on the Knot!

ession, he made us feel extremely comfortable by making us laugh, having natural poses, trying new things, etc. That never wavered during the wedding, either. He is so personable and felt like such a close friend that you would have never known he wasn't in the bridal party! James had uploaded a few photos that he had taken from our first look, bridal party, and family photos prior to the wedding, and uploaded them onto a tablet that was displayed during the wedding. Everyone was in awe at how fast he worked, but also at how beautiful just those few photos were. My bridal party has all texted me saying, we love James! I'm counting down the days until we can see the full album, and I want to have another wedding just to get a chance to work with him again. Book the wizard, you won't regret it!

keeps you laughing which is great cause you spend so much time with him! He gives you a suggested timeline and helps make sure you have plenty of time for photos. Somehow he keeps track of the always growing list of wants thrown at him on wedding day. He is always willing to try new ideas and will do just about anything for the perfect shot. He got perfect shots of my husband and I with our dog that melt my heart! Not to mention he saved our day by finding us a replacement videographer 2 days before our wedding (thanks covid). He genuinely cares about his couples and making their day everything they dreamed of. You NEED James in your life especially for your wedding! Book him now!!!

r family portraits! Before I even got engaged I knew James would be the one to capture my wedding day and boy did he show up! From every communication, our engagement pictures, to our big day, the sneak peaks, to the gallery! I love it all!!!

end him enough!!

o call James. On the phone....we just vibed! He was so funny, down to earth and just genuinely wanted to be a part of my wedding day. I knew I found the right guy! It seemed as if we had been friends forever. He did our engagement photos at Deep Cut Gardens and was literally like Spiderman trying to get every angle and shot possible. He definitely makes you feel comfortable and has some funny jokes too! Although there was no Sun for our sunset photos he was still able to work his magic and created the sunset vibe. Fast forward to our wedding day and he was PHENOMENAL! He was able to keep me calm and still keep me on schedule too. My entire family LOVED him and still rave about the positive vibes and energy he gave off to everyone in the room. My wedding pictures turned out amazing and I got the most beautiful custom USB box with all my photos. Overall, you will not be disappointed with him! He's so talented and just so down to earth! #TeamSoy

moments. Both my husband and I are not good at taking pictures when put on the spot, but James made this painless and natural from the engagement photos to wedding day photos. You’d have no idea we were rookies to professional photos thanks to them! Both him and Meg provided direction at every step of the way during our couples photos, bridal party photos and worked with all family beautifully. You talk about getting down to business -these two even hopped into bushes and behind trees to get the most unique shots! Even during the reception action shots were being taken throughout and we already had the privilege to see some of these amazing moments captured! Relaxed in nature, the comfort we felt between both of them during our solo moments getting ready as well was amazing and truly what we needed. If you are looking for beautiful photos, plus a down to earth, fantastic personality in a photographer James Webb is your guy! He also offers numerous packages and options based upon your budget and preference. You can’t go wrong with James Webb Photography, trust me!

lled photographer, but also a cemented part of our story. An illustrious mix of 80 rock, dad jokes, and millennial hacks from the crew to make it an experience far beyond "taking pictures." Would absolutely recommend and rehire for future events. Thanks James and team. - Mark and Julia

iness. We didn’t feel awkward or out of place at all with James and his assistant Laura…& did I mention how gorgeous the pictures are & I have only seen a handful! Can’t wait to see the rest.

It rained that day and we were totally bummed thinking the rain was going to ruin our engagement session.....until James showed us some sneak peaks! He used puddles to create reflections and the clouds were so amazing in our photos. Our wedding was June 3, 2021. James and his partner Tommy were so easy to work with. They both have such a unique eye!! They gave direction when needed (which was a lot because my husband and I are not used to being in front of a camera). They made us feel so confident and comfortable. Everyone came up to us asking for their information because everyone at our wedding loved their work and energy. They were never pulling us away from our guests or in our face but captured every moment possible and were always aware the best photo opportunities. Any time we wanted a random picture with friends we would look over and they were already on it. SUCH AN AMAZING TEAM! They were hands down the vendor we were most excited to work with on our day. I couldn't have pictured using anyone else for our wedding and I am excited to use James and his team for future life events! P.S. even during the pandemic James was so easy to work with!! He couldn't have made it any easier.

n. He was always available to answer questions, and was prompt to reply. My husband and I had so much fun with James and Laura on our wedding day. I cannot wait to book James again for our next big event. Amazing, amazing, amazing!

actually feel like a friend you’ve known for a million years is taking pictures. We had an absolute blast with James and Laura and recommend James Webb Photography a million times over!!

-19). He got all the shots we asked for and his editing is completely amazing. He is professional and yet still a blast to work with. He helped us create the photo of our dreams on top of our Jeep popping a bottle of champagne at Lincoln Financial Field (we're huge Eagles fans) People still tell us it's the coolest picture they've ever seen! James personality will make you have so much fun taking the photos for your event!

could not have picked a more talented or better person to shoot our wedding.

t reviews. Well he definitely delivered. I told him we wanted our engagement pictures taken in Philly at two locations and that wasn't a problem at all. It was an extremely hot day in July, but he went to all the stops to get the best pics and they were AWESOME! We had James and another photographer for our wedding and they were amazing. We did a first look and he got all the shots. The day was beautiful and the pictures show that. We love ALL our pictures from the portraits, family pics to the ceremony and reception. Then we got all our wedding pictures back in 15 days! WHAT?!? If you are looking for a a top notch photographer, stop searching. James Webb is hands down the best wedding photographer EVER! If he is available for your date consider yourself lucky.

xceeds all expectations. I tell everyone about him, so many of my friends as well as family want to now use him when they get married. His work has his own special touch which you do not see in other photographers. If I could I would hang every picture in my house. James is on top of making sure that everything is how you want it to be as well as getting everything he needs done, he has the perfect balance even when the bride runs behind schedule. lol James had a slide show of photos he had taken edited and running on an iPad while we ate dinner. Our guest were amazed by his work as well as how quickly he got them together. We wouldn't have wanted anyone else to take our pictures as well as have fun with. James is one of a kind and trust me, you won't be disappointed.

th rain but don’t panic! James kept in charge and had the venue (barn wedding) scope out the land before adventuring out in the muddy areas! James really knows how to use his skills and capture every moment. Everyone who got to see a preview of a few photos during our reception were in awe and let us know our photographer was awesome! We are so happy with everything!

tice, go look at his work !!!

d our schedules with the limited time available between our old and new wedding date. On the day of our wedding, James and his second shooter, Allison, were professional, kind and gave us great direction. They took their time getting great shots and the photos we have seen so far are beautiful. They had a preview of about 20 photos or so from the wedding photos they had just taken during the ceremony and cocktail hour with our bridal parties and families showcased on an ipad for guests to see at our wedding. James always answered our messages and emails. He was prepared the whole day and truly looked like he enjoyed his job. We cannot thank James enough for all he Allison did that day and the days leading up to it.

tail was very much appreciated and he made sure my dress and veil were just right when it needed to be. Leading up to the wedding he gave us great location advice for photos and was flexible as we changed the location several times. His work speaks for itself and we are very happy with our photos! We plan on using James for future photos of our family as we grow.

our family farm. Before I was even engaged, I knew I had to have James for my wedding day. It is more than obvious that he is an expert while watching him in his element. My then boyfriend also recognized James’ insane talent, and had him come to snap photos of our engagement. Before we even booked our wedding venue and date, I made sure James was available for us! Prior to the big day, we collaborated with James and discussed the photo plan for the time leading up to the ceremony and following the ceremony. He communicated with us super clearly and kept us on track throughout the day. We were given exactly what we asked for, plus so much more. James is kind-hearted, and SO much fun to be around! He kept us laughing and made us feel more than comfortable in front of the camera all day. The amount of pictures we received was incredible! We still continue to go through them and always find more and more that stand out to us. Not only that, but James had edited and sent the photos our way in such a timely manner. He even helped my mother-in-law design a photo album of pictures of her choice and it came out impeccable. I can’t imagine anyone considering a photographer other than James to capture their big day! He has now become our family friend and a friend that we will cherish forever. Thank you so much, James!!!

his second shooter Jenna paid close attention to detail and got every photo on my “must have” list. My husband and I did not have a first look so we were extremely pressed for time when it came to photos of just the two of us. Our photos together after the ceremony absolutely blew us away! James only had 20 minutes to get our shots done and every single one of them was impeccable. He was amazing with our guests and with wrangling our family members. I can’t say enough good things about his work! Not to mention the delivery of over 2,000 photos in two weeks time! Hire him!

tos. On top of how much we love our photos, we loved working with James and his team as well. They made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day and made us laugh the entire time. We would refer him to anyone!

Our engagement pictures were truly one of a kind and we received SO many compliments on them. When it came to our wedding, James and Jenna were honestly amazing and are truly people that you want to be surrounded by on your wedding day. They are both so calm, sweet, and helpful. His showcasing of edited pictures during your reception is incredible and honestly services as another form of entertainment for your guests. Noone could believe that he already had pictures edited and up for display already! James' creativity and vision is one of a kind. He finds a way to provide you with engagement and wedding photos that are so unique and are truly one of a kind pieces of art. You were the best investment James. We love you guys and thank you SO much!!

l day long and his creativity and vision is truly unmatched. His assistant, Jenna, was also so good with my groomsmen and they were all very comfortable with her. He provided sneak peaks to us before dinner at the reception and they blew us away. I can’t imagine what the rest of the album will look like! This was hands down one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process. HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend.

post wedding album selection. Communication, talent and quality of service were excellent. I got numerous comments from family and friends of how phenomenal the pictures looked. ALSO the super sweet box of pictures and flash drive of all our pictures was the cherry on top of our picture package. It was a really nice touch!! You will not go wrong when choosing James and company! I highly recommend him!!!

mes is to work with! He truly has a special gift and ability to capture a couple and their personalities! He makes someone who hates taking photos (hint hint: ME!) feel so comfortable posing throughout the day! I also want to mention that I received endless compliments on James! He brings such an amazing vibe! He is an absolute pleasure to have around you on the biggest day of you life! He truly captured every moment! I can’t stop suggesting him to anyone I know getting married, and highly suggest you make the best decision and choose him!

rapher. He has an expert eye for choosing the perfect locations for both formal and informal pictures and during the reception moved around the room unobtrusively while still obtaining wonderful shots at the center of the action. At every step of the way, from our first meeting to getting our final pictures, James always discussed our options before making a decision, kept us well informed, and was flexible and fun to make our day absolutely perfect!

looking at the pictures and everyone LOVES them. James is so funny, super easy to work with, on time and takes awesome pictures. He made everything so easy for us. I am so happy that we booked him to take the most perfect pictures on our special day!

o comfortable. It’s like we knew him for years! He captures all the great moments on your special day. People are still talking about all the photos from our wedding and how great they all turned out!!!! Anytime we had questions he was a text message away. He was our first decision when it came to planning our wedding and by far the best! Do yourself a favor and look no further and pick this man.

really beautiful pictures that we will cherish forever. Not only is he extremely talented but he is also fun to be around. He made the whole process quick, fun, and comfortable. Highly recommend!

ons and we appreciated the pricing transparency right on his website. I could tell immediately that James has a great eye for depth, texture, light and post-processing and once I saw his work…no one else stood a chance. I kept coming back to James’ photos and his down to earth bio, which is 100% our vibe. Booking him was the best decision we could have made. He was actually one of the first vendors we booked. We did both an engagement shoot and our wedding day with James and his second shooter, Jenna. Our guests enjoyed the tablet slide show of photos during our reception, and they even left some photos for us at our sweetheart table throughout the wedding. We haven’t even seen the “final” complete product yet but James has already shared a preview (within days of our wedding) and I have zero hesitation in writing this review now. #Impeccable James and Jenna are also just amazing people, fun and helpful. When I ran into a last minute snafu with both my veil and dress Jenna was ON IT with some bobby pins/safety pins. And yes…I’m talking about our wedding photographers lol talk about above and beyond. James isn’t afraid to crawl in the grass to get the perfect shot. At no point did we feel like we were missing anything because of photos, which is a testament to James and his time management skills. He helped keep us on time and catch up when we were a tad behind (because of my veil/dress malfunction). Bottom line…book him immediately! Thank you James and Jenna for being a pivotal part of our wedding day!
