Jashim Jalal Studios Photographer

Jashim and Ruby were absolutely wonderful to work with for our wedding. Just from the initial call, we could tell that Jashim was interested in getting to know about us and what we wanted out of the experience which was different than any phone calls we had with other photographers. When our calls would run over time, Jashim would make sure to schedule another call to make sure we didn't leave out any key points.
With our engagement photoshoot, Jashim made my fiance and I feel super comfortable since we are not that experienced with posing for pictures. He listened to my ideas as I can be really picky with photos and was able to recreate the vision I had in mind. He even ran to get me water when I fainted from the heat lol.
For our wedding weekend, Jashim was on top of finding the best spots/locations at our venue for the most aesthetic shots and he was able to help us create our reception entrance video. We could tell a lot of research was done prior to the wedding weekend to make our vision a reality. He coordinated seamlessly with our video team to make sure they didn't spend too much time posing for pictures so we could enjoy the day as much as we could. This is something that we really appreciated. Jashim and his team would go above and beyond for the perfect images and have a surprisingly quick turnaround time for getting wedding photos back! I know couples with other wedding photographers who have to wait several months or even a year to get their wedding photos back but Jashim was able to get us sneak peeks even a week after the wedding!
Hiring his team was one of the easiest decisions of this wedding planning process and if you are going to spend more money on anything, I definitely recommend that being photo/video. Hire Jashim for your wedding - you won't regret it!!

We are so lucky we found Jashim and his team. They are incredibly professional, timely, easy to reach, and personable. Their work is unbelievable. I specifically asked for candid moments and Jashim and his team truly delivered. He even accommodated our lifestyle session (usually done in NYC) back in DC where we live and covered our wedding in NJ. He has an eye for creativity/detail and we are so lucky he and his team captured our big day. Due to our distance we couldn't do the studio reveal but our photos came to us beautifully packaged with curated prints selected by Jashim and a heartwarming message. Thank you!

I've worked with Jashim on many occasions as a colleague in the wedding industry. I've always admired his work ethic and personality - Down to earth and hard-working. I've seen him behind the scenes doing what he does best, with ease. He knows exactly how the shot should turn out and adjusts his equipment/positioning to make it happen. We used Jashim & his team for my wife's maternity shoot, holiday photo shoot, and our son's first birthday. If I had known Jashim at the time, he would've been there for our wedding as well! Jashim, we absolutely love you brother and will continue to utilize your services for life. Thank you for always capturing our most precious memories and bringing emotion out of your photography.

When we began planning our wedding, my husband and I talked about the 'must haves' for our wedding- things that we knew were non-negotiable to us. The top of both of our lists were our photographer. We knew above all else, we wanted someone who could capture our wedding and give us memories that we could look back at years later. We both looked at multiple photographers, but Jashim Jalal's Instagram was the one we kept coming back to. His candids were beautiful, perfectly capturing the emotion of his couples' day and telling a perfect story. His portraits were absolutely breathtaking and looked like something out of a magazine. We still were between a few choices, but what really sealed the deal for us was my initial phone call with him. When you first speak to Jashim, he automatically makes you feel like a friend. He genuinely wants to know your story and what your vision of the day is. When speaking to him, you can tell that photography is truly his passion and it was something that absolutely won me over that as soon as I finished my call with him, I called my fiancé and told him that we had found our wedding photographer.

Our engagement session with Jashim was great! We decided to try an outdoor nature -filled engagement shoot and Jashim made every picture look amazing. He kept us at ease and laughing the entire day, and gave us tips of how to pose and look more natural in front of his camera.

On my wedding day, it was so great to see a familiar face that morning! Jashim came in with a big smile and automatically went to work, blending so well into the background and capturing images that I didn't even realize were happening! He, Christa his assistant, and our second photographer, Ruby, were with us throughout the entire day and captured every important moment of our day so perfectly.

One of the things I was most concerned about was that a majority of our bridal party/couple pictures would be taking place outside after the sun went down due to our late November wedding. A huge part of me was nervous about how these pictures would turn out. Jashim and Ruby- when I say that these nighttime pictures are my absolute favorite from our album, I truly mean it. They are so breathtaking and so much more than I ever could have imagined. Looking through each of these pictures has been great, seeing the emotion captured during the day, the moments we didn't even realize were happening, and seeing all of our friends and family celebrating together. If you are hesitating on whether or not to book Jashim, do yourself a favor and book a call with him, and see for yourself why he may be the perfect photographer for you! Thank you Jashim, Ruby, and Christa for capturing our day! You have given us such an amazing gift to look back on!

As we began our wedding planning process, we always knew we needed the right photographer. Your wedding photographer is definitely one of the most important vendors for the wedding. They are the only one that can capture the memories that you get to look back on for years and years.
We reached out to several photographers throughout our initial planning process, Jashim being one of them. I had browsed Jashim’s website and social media platforms, and from that I knew he had the vision we were looking for. Just to confirm, I arranged for us to have an initial conversation to hear about his work and experience. Jashim and I talked for several hours on the phone.  We went through all my ideas and visions for the wedding day. It felt like I was talking to a friend from the start. He not only listened to what I had to say, but he was able to provide professional recommendations. He even went above and beyond to give advice on other parts of the wedding planning process which was so kind as we had not even finalized choosing him as our photographer at the time! After that initial conversation with Jashim on the phone, I called my fiancé at the time and told him I knew Jashim was the perfect fit for us.
The weekend of our wedding, he was hands down our favorite vendor. He was able to take our vision and execute it beautifully. Throughout the whole weekend, he worked extremely well with our family, friends, and vendors. He was constantly checking in on us and made us feel at ease. We were extremely happy as to how he managed the whole wedding process with us. He has definitely transitioned from our photographer to a good friend of ours. If I had to plan my wedding over again, I without a doubt would choose Jashim. He has the perfect mix of being professional as well as being that friend you can depend on. Our wedding would not have been the same without him.
