Everly Studios

Wow, we can’t be happier with our wedding photos and the experience we had with Jocelyn. Much more than a photographer, she felt like a friend. She really made the City Hall process so clear and precise, had a great coffee shop recommendation after City Hall and accompanied us all the way through our reception lunch. She photographed every single detail. I can’t say enough great things about Jocelyn – book her, she’s amazing!

Our wedding was unexpectedly pushed up three weeks, and finding a photographer was one of the last things on our agenda. We strived for a simple City Hall wedding, but definitely did not want to skimp on the photos that would show everyone that we tied the knot as well as capture the joy and happiness that my husband and I felt on that special day. My husband found Everly Studios online and we studied the website thoroughly, hoping we could have photos half as beautiful as the ones shown. Hiring Jocelyn was a no-​brainer, but would she be available on barely a months’ notice? Fortunately for us, she responded quickly to our email request, and was available to meet with us in person immediately. Although she was already booked for a wedding in the morning on November 5^th, she was still available to shoot our wedding later that day. She did a great job of keeping in touch with us leading up to the wedding date, always responded quickly to emails, and was on time the day of the marriage. Additionally, her pricing was extremely reasonable, and most importantly, she was a total sweetheart; easy to get along with and happy to go the extra mile.
After we received the pictures from Jocelyn, I put together an announcement card that was mailed out to our closest friends and family. The feedback was incredible! Everyone kept saying how absolutely stunning and romantic the pictures were. I wonder if anyone would believe that the day we got married was actually gloomy, raining and overcast? Job well done — would absolutely recommend Everly Studios to ANYONE who wants amazing wedding photos!

We hired Jocelyn as our New York City Hall Wedding photographer and Thank God we did! She was truly wonderful to work with! Jocelyn was extremely professional, provided clear and upfront direction, was resourceful, responsive and flexible, kind and incredibly sweet. She captured the perfect images of our small, intimate City Hall Wedding that we will cherish. In addition to that, she helped us navigate the City Hall process and provided a sense of calm amid our excitement. Within a week our photos were ready and they were everything we hoped for! As a corporate events planner, I have a high expectation and Jocelyn was able to exceed them all! Don’t think twice. Call her today and you’ll immediately understand why everyone loves working with her! Thank you, Jocelyn!

We got married 08.25.15. We decided to do a casual city hall wedding in New York City after realizing we didn’t want the stress or expenses of anything wedding related… however, we didn’t want to forgo a wedding photographer and so a week before our designated wedding date, we found Everly Studios via Instagram which had great pictures. We contacted the studio, and Jocelyn Voo recommended THE MOST AMAZING Sandy SooHoo to photograph our city hall wedding… Coming from a family of hobbyist photographers we definitely had expectations… and being that our wedding was spontaneous and all we had time for to prep was a 15 minute conversation, I have to say I was nervous, but as soon as we arrived, Sandy started doing her thing… She was so cool and down to earth and gave us no «pressure» to take pictures. We didn’t want too many lengthy ‘arm here leg here’ poses to make us look rigid and awkward, we picked her because her eye for the ‘candid’ shot is unbelievable — I don’t think there was an emotion or moment lost to the photos!!! Looking at all the photos, I don’t even have an urge to see a video, I can relive every second just through the photos. She gave us direction when it was needed for our personal photos, and let us enjoy ourselves when the moment was right — and it’s ALL captured! Sandy is amazing and I recommend her for any wedding big or small; her finger is always on the shutter at the right time.

We don’t have enough great things to say about Jocelyn! Having planned our New York City Hall wedding out of state, Jocelyn helped us every step of the way from offering floral and food recommendations to providing ideas for photography locations that fit our style. She has a calming presence and every one at our wedding enjoyed her company. She listened to our ideas, and truly captured our love and vision for the day. We highly recommend her!

Jocelyn was amazing. I had a very short window of time in New York between an 8 hour bus ride and 25 hrs of flights where I wanted to have my proposal secretly photographed and she did an awesome job helping me accidentally set a high bar for other men getting ready to propose (take that). Jocelyn is a reliable and awesome photographer and I’ll always have that moment captured thanks to her. As an out of towner, she helped with selecting the location and made it a really good experience. Thank you, Jocelyn!

Booking Jocelyn to be our photographer for our city hall wedding was the best decision we made throughout this whole process. We are so happy with her! Jocelyn was very responsive from day 1 and we met via Skype as we were in different time zones at the time. We felt very comfortable working with her even as most of our interaction was via email. She answered all my one thousand questions and was very supportive throughout the whole process. We told her what we wanted for our day and she came up with excellent ideas. She made the whole process of getting married in NYC so much easier. She has a very calm demeanor, a great personality and will guide you through everything. Our families were very impressed with her and how calm she is but she is a take charge person, no doubt. She is professional, she knows what she is doing and we trusted her whole-​heartedly. We really liked her photography style and we couldn’t be happier with the end results. It was raining the morning of our wedding, but she kept going with the pictures, despite us getting poured on. We have beautiful pictures of our day that we absolutely love and can’t wait to see more! She is an amazing photographer and I wish we could give her more stars or bring her to Miami with us… thank you so much Jocelyn!

Jocelyn was absolutely wonderful! I contacted her through e-​mail and all the negotiations ran very smoothly. She was always ver responsive and would happily adapt to my needs. She took pictures at my graduation lunch and the pictures came out beautiful; the perfect combination of candid and posed pictures! She made us all feel very comfortable and did her magic.

Jocelyn is an incredibly talented photographer who makes you feel comfortable and takes all the pressure out of the experience. My fiancé and I spent the afternoon hanging around the city with Jocelyn, exploring mural-​clad alleys, eating chocolate and drinking beers, and we barely noticed the camera. She’s fun, laid back and super easy to work with, and she catches all the key moments. We received our photos just a few days later and we couldn’t be happier with the results. They are crisp and colorful and seem to capture all the best things we did in a very natural light. Thank you Jocelyn! We’d recommend you to anyone looking for phenomenal photography work.

Jocelyn is amazing. From the minute we met her over coffee, it was like we’d known her forever. We already loved her photos, but we really picked her because we felt like she understood us and would be able to capture our wedding day through our eyes. She captured all the subtle and beautiful moments and details, the expressions on our families’ and friends’ faces, single tears and hysterical laughter, terrible dance moves, our family members coming together, and so many creatively-​framed aspects of the decorations and setting that we were too busy to even notice the day of the wedding. We had a lot of things «go wrong» the day of our wedding, and Jocelyn rolled with all the punches, including the heavy rain and bad lighting and a ceremony that started 30 minutes later due to a major bridal wardrobe malfunction, but WE LOVELOVELOVE our pictures and they are filled with so much feeling that we actually feel like we’re re-​living the day when we go through them. We thought we might be a little biased, given that it was our big day, but we had so many friends and family tell us they loved our photographer. They loved that her style was so organic, she was always in the mix of things, dancing while she snapped photos, happily granting requests for group shots, weaving her way around the ceremony without distracting or blocking anyone, and she had a smile on her face the whole time. We would recommend Jocelyn without hesitation, and we’re just looking forward to finding reasons to work with her again.

I can’t say enough about how great Jocelyn at Aw Yeah Photo is! I run a production and lighting design company, and brought Jocelyn on for our top-​tier client to photograph their immersive production. I’ve worked with so many photographers, but she’s the first to really capture the saturation and spirit of the event. I have no reservations referring her for any type of photography, especially weddings. Five stars!

As someone who hosts a lot of events, it’s oftentimes very difficult to juggle managing a group of volunteers, mingling with guests and thinking about how to awkwardly deliver a funny speech. On top of all that, you need to be responsible for sending over some brochure-​ready photos to your partners and/​or higher-​ups to review, print, and/​or post on social media. Jocelyn eases the whole process. She is an awesome photographer who not only makes your guests feel comfortable and enjoy the party, but also applies an artistic vision that best suits your venue and event. She’s practical and creative, well-​rounded and smart. She is an incredible person to work with, and I recommend her for any type of event.

I had Jocelyn take some professional headshot photos of me for use on my LinkedIn and other places online. She was awesome to work with and made the process feel very comfortable and easy. The photos were great and she was eager to get my input on any places I wanted to shoot and incorporated multiple locations I wanted to try. The Aw Yeah Photo delivery method was also very accessible and easy — the process of getting my photos downloaded and saved in various levels of quality was no problem. I will absolutely be recommending Jocelyn for any friends’ photography needs.

I had Aw Yeah Photo shoot my spring Gala. Jocelyn was so much fun to work with, and she captures the best angles. Her attention to detail is amazing. She got everything, from people in their fancy attire to the beautiful venue. I’m so glad she was there to capture every moment. Now I have all my friends hounding me for her photos. Thanks Joc!
I’m def. hiring her for my wedding.
