Jean-Marcus Strole Photography

week, and I remember just how friendly and personable Jean-Marcus was the entire trip - from the welcome BBQ to the ceremony to the post-wedding shenanigans. He got along with everyone so well that you would never think he was a hired vendor because he fit in so well; it was as though he'd been a part of the family for years. He made such a great impression on me that it was seriously a no-brainer when it came to planning my own wedding many, many years later. My husband and I planned our 2014 Winter Solstice wedding in Seattle in about 6 weeks. We were so thankful everything came together so quickly, and without a hitch. We were thankful Jean-Marcus was available to photograph our wedding on short notice, and the weekend before Christmas. We had a small, intimate wedding at Ray's Boathouse in Seattle. Jean-Marcus did such an amazing job capturing our wedding. We absolutely loved our wedding photos. He sent us a couple of teasers a few days after the wedding, so we could send some out as our holiday cards. He also provided us with a link/app to view our wedding photos and share them with our friends and family, which they loved! He even sent us a disc with all our wedding photos and the disc cover was made up of some of our most favorite photos from our special day. Jean-Marcus is in a league of his own. He's a top-rated wedding photographer for a reason. Jean-Marcus is a highly skilled photographer.He's great at what he does. I would HIGHLY recommend Jean-Marcus to any bride-to-be looking for a fabulous photographer for her wedding. Whether you are having a small, intimate destination wedding or a big celebration in your hometown, Jean-Marcus is your guy!

traveled to Southern California for us and was very accommodating! We built a great relationship from the beginning. We loved our photos for all three occasions and he was professional and so knowledgeable. We also had a videographer and Jean-Marcus was in constant communication in order to make sure things ran smoothly. Turn around for our wedding photos were also very fast and exactly what we wanted.

hair salon to take pictures and while we were there we had a transportation issue and happily drove me and some bridesmaids to our venue. He is work is fabulous and he helped me feel at ease with the day of stress!

ched quickly. As we met to plan, Jean-Marcus was wonderful at spending the right amount of time between standard shot sheets versus creative ideas. PRO TIP: give him as much free reign as possible at your wedding. Jean-Marcus has a killer eye for balance, contrast, texture, and composition. Our wedding photography is a priceless treasure because of this talent and professionalism.

omish homes with large trees and leaves everywhere and a few other natural light areas. Jean-Marcus was great directing everyone where to be and at what time. That is an aspect I was unfamiliar with. Usual for pics I just say everybody stand together. Jean-Marcus has an eye for aesthetics. My wife and I were very happy with the finished product and will probably hire Jean-Marcus in the future for family photos or special occasion events.

very friendly, easy to work with, and an incredibly creative talent. We loved every photo and his endless photo ideas gave us a one of a kind end product. If you want professional, one-of-a-kind shots then Jean-Marcus is the photographer for you!

m capture but in this review, I will talk of my personal experience: I only have one complaint: I asked Jean-Marcus to edit my photos to make me look like Jessica Alba... That didn't happen LOL -But what did happen is, looking at my pictures, I realized how beautiful I looked. He made me feel my beauty with barely any editing and I thank him for that!! What also happened is Jean Marcus letting me decide how my pictures went (day of). What I had imagined, wished and asked for prior to my wedding was NOT what I wanted while standing in the moment on my actual wedding day. In fact, I changed everything!! It was so hot (98 degrees) and I just wanted to party. Jean-Marcus went right along with my flow, getting enough to fulfill the pictures needed to satisfy my original request while letting go and allowing things to switch up a little (last minute). Most of my pictures were candid, rather than perfectly posed, which I preferred and was a HUGE request of mine. He got the posed pictures we needed to be satisfied with our "wedding day pictures". The reception pictures were AWESOME! Proof that everyone had a great time and I constantly get to look back and see the party that I dreamed of for so long! Every time I look at my wedding photos, I feel like I am reliving the event. I especially love how he took so many amazing pictures of our kids having fun... I really wanted that and LOVE looking at them, so innocent and full of life on the dance floor and with their cousins and family. Outside of our wedding, Jean-Marcus is a true statement in the photography field. It isn't his J-O-B, and it isn't work. He proves constantly that photography is his passion and talent. He enjoys everything he does in life and is very open and adventurous, always coming up with amazing ideas to capture your special moments as if they were his own. He is very personable and you can't help but consider him a friend right off the bat! Thank you, Jean-Marcus, for capturing the beauty of our wedding day. That day was SO much work and you captured ALL of the fun... I appreciated your consistent effort throughout the day and I do not believe anyone could have done better! Robyn Hayes

g to end, being flexible with planning meetings and ensuring (and following through with) being the first to arrive at the venue in Issaquah, and being the last to leave; it was so nice not having to worry about a time frame he would be available and knowing he woulda be there for everything! He is professional, passionate, fun and creative, capturing shots throughout the day, while blending in with our guests. We were so happy to have him a part of another family event, and definitely were not disappointed.

r wedding and couldn't have been happier. Everyone loved him and we loved him he really integrated himself seamlessly into our wedding party and took all photos I requested. He went above and beyond with his editing I want to frame all of my pictures he took! He made everyone feel comfortable and excited to be photographed which is such a unique skills. Jean-Marcus was professional, on time, charismatic, kind and very talented couldn't be happier!

y captures some amazing photos. People are amazed at our photos and can't stop saying how amazing they are. Even during the wedding guests kept coming up to us saying how amazing he was. Some of his pictures are just so amazing and unique! Not only does he take amazing artistic pictures, but he also takes some more traditional pictures as well. We recommend him to everyone and we can't wait to hire him again when we need family pictures!

e been happier with Jean! I can't wait to see the final pictures from the wedding. Jean is an artist at what he does, don't expect "normal" wedding photography. We wanted to find ways to make our photos different, so he worked with us and gave us ideas along the way. We get so many awww's about our engagement pictures with him that I can't wait to see the wedding pictures.
