JLB is iconic. His creative process and eye for detail is incredible. Our (250 person) wedding was originally planned for March 28, 2020. We eloped a week early with him and 20 people and had no anticipation for him to work with us on the unused time. He made the most gracious offer and we still got to use those hours for another shoot with him. We actually feel speechless with the level of professionalism we received. On top of unique design driven photos, JLB is very kind, courteous and calm - the type of energy you need on your wedding day! We *often* look at our beautiful photos and are so relieved we hired him!

Jeffrey is the kindest, most creative, talented and lovely person to have worked with. He perfectly captured our wedding day and the ✨ vibe✨ we wanted to create. He was patient with our guests and gave us the most beautiful memories from our day. He is worth every penny. Our only regret about hiring JLB was that we only have one wedding day!

When my husband and I got engaged, the first thing we agreed on was a photographer. We knew we wanted JLB because we loved his style and were so thrilled that he was available.

He was absolutely professional and someone we completely trusted. He took us to the most unique places in Detroit and really captured our spirit, as a couple.  People still talk about the pride smoke bomb pic to this day!

He even handled our big family portraits! He captured every single moment perfectly. Words cannot express how happy we are to have had JLB part of our journey! 10/10

Hiring JLB as our wedding photographer was the best decision we made! Apart from his amazing artistic skills, he is also charismatic, easy to work with, and always a professional. He has such an eye for light and line that makes his images unique. He also captured gorgeous details and special moments from our wedding day that were even more beautiful than we could have imagined. We have keepsake photographs from our wedding that look like they belong in a magazine! We will cherish these photos, and our memories of working with JLB, forever :)

Congratulations!! You can stop scrolling and looking for a photographer - you found the best one. Working with Jeffrey was the best experience my wife and I could have asked for. Jeffrey's vision, work ethic, and ability to capture the best moments of our wedding were absolutely unparalleled. I'm the shy husband who doesn't like to be in photos and Jeffery made both our engagement photo shoot and wedding a fun and engaging experience that showed through in our photos. The photos were incredible, the vibes were immaculate, and yours will be too.

Hiring JLB will be the easiest part of planning your wedding and one of the BEST decision you will make.
He did our engagement photo shoot in November in Ann Arbor, and most recently our wedding in June in Puerto Rico.  We are beyond grateful for the beautiful memories he has given us.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer who will deliver extraordinary, lifelong memories, look no further!

I appreciated his professionalism, but also that he kept the vibes at a 10/10!  Our engagement photos were quite cold in Ann Arbor and sweaty, hot and humid in Puerto Rico, but you would never know it because his positive attitude and enthusiasm is seriously infectious!  Even our friends and family were raving about him during and after our wedding.

His background in graphic design make his photographs stand above all the rest.  He has such a keen and sharp eye for making the shot perfect!

Seriously, hire this man.  You'll be so happy you did!

Can't recommend highly enough! We had a small, fairly non-traditional wedding and Jeffrey was really flexible and attentive to what we needed. He also has amazing knowledge of Detroit-area venues and he already knew all the perfect spots to shoot at our hotel and ceremony spot.

He really cares about his art and his effort showed. We've received nothing but glowing complements about our wedding photos - Jeffrey goes above and beyond to find unique shots. The gifs were fun and his custom color processing was great, too; it let us choose which mood we liked best for each photo.

JLB Photography was the first vendor my husband and I booked for our wedding. His eye for light, structure, and how to place subjects in a frame is impeccable! He is an expert in his field Our photos turned out incredible! We were so delighted by the time he took to take unique portraits of our guests, all in different locations at our venue. I will continue to recommend his services for years to come!

JLB provided the photography for our wedding earlier this summer as well as our engagement session last year. His skill and talent surpassed our wildest expectations. Since our wedding day, we have received numerous compliments from guests about the stunning pictures that JLB provided, and how incredible he was, working so hard to make every shot perfect. This is reflected in how great he was at helping ease my husband, myself, and our wedding party through the chaos of the day. We could not be happier with the way he captured so many special moments, which we will forever treasure. We had our dream wedding and it is due in no small part to JLB.

About

Jeffrey Lewis Bennett
Photographer Jeffrey Lewis Bennett About me

I started photographing weddings in 2003 and eventually left my day job as a graphic designer to do photography full-time. In addition to photos, I create a few animated gifs from every session. My style is influenced by design principles, architecture, Edward Hopper paintings, plus films by Stanley Kubrick, Denis Villeneuve, and Wes Anderson. I try to put as much attention into the scene as the subjects. I prefer to cover events solo and do my own editing, posting teasers the next day. I’m based in the Detroit area but cover weddings all over America. I'm LGBT friendly.
