Beautiful photographs.
A feeling that stays.

We are so grateful we had Cadence of Grace Photograph our wedding!

Right from the beginning, they made us feel comfortable. The engagement shoot, which was included in our package, was such a thoughtful touch. It gave us a chance to get comfortable with posing, being behind the camera, and allowed us to build a relationship with them ahead of the big day.

Their attention to detail was outstanding. I had a lot of items prepared for flat lay shots, and the way they styled and captured everything was beyond what I imagined.

They worked seamlessly alongside our videographer, who was booked separately, keeping everything running smoothly and stress-free. During the ceremony, they blended in naturally, and I honestly don’t even remember seeing them in action, however they captured such emotional and beautiful shots without ever feeling intrusive.

Having two photographers for our wedding was a bonus. We got shots from multiple angles, which made our gallery feel complete. The editing style was everything we wanted: light, airy, and timeless.

One of the most meaningful moments was something I’ll never forget. A few months before the wedding, my Nana, with whom I was incredibly close, passed away. After she died, twelve birds (mostly bluejays and cardinals) appeared outside her window. Bluejays, in particular, became a deeply symbolic sign of her presence. I even had a bear made from one of her bluejay shirts. I shared this story with the Cadence of Grace team in our pre-wedding notes, and to my surprise and awe, they captured bluebirds flying during our wedding. That photo means more to me than I can express, and I’m so touched that they recognized and honored that moment.

Our wedding gallery is something we’ll treasure forever. The photos truly captured how we felt in every moment, and we’re constantly reliving the joy, love, and beauty of the day through their lens. We can’t recommend Cadence of Grace enough. They are talented, thoughtful, and genuinely wonderful people to work with.

We worked with Jacob and Kristin for our wedding in June as well as for our engagement photos and they were amazing to say the least.

They are super easy going and make you feel comfortable during the process, but also guide you when you need it so nothing feels forced or too posed. They kept things light and fun the whole time. Even our guests kept telling us how much they enjoyed working with them. We even had the fire alarm go off at our venue and Jacob honestly made the situation so much better by changing our photo timeline and making sure to do any couple shots then instead of taking time away later in the night, which made such a difference so we could focus on enjoying ourselves. The photos themselves are breathtaking. It was so hard to choose just a few to show for this review! I highly recommend Cadence of Grace – you won’t be disappointed.

Jake and Kristin are an incredible couple and talented photographers. Throughout wedding planning Kristin and Jake were so responsive and wanted to make sure we felt confident going into our wedding day.

We did an engagement shoot with Jake before our wedding. That experience alone made it clear that we made the right choice choosing Cadence of Grace. Jake made us feel so comfortable and confident. He had us laughing the entire time.

Fast forward to the wedding. Jake met with me a few weeks before the wedding for almost an hour to discuss a timeline for the wedding day. He gave great input and wanted to make sure I was feeling calm going into the day. Day of the wedding, Jake was on time and brought nothing but the best vibes. He’s a talented photographer but also just an amazing human. He made ALL of our people feel special and comfortable. Jake was also more than just a photographer, he made sure everything went smoothly. We had a perfect wedding day and a big reason for that was Jake.

We’re so thankful for his professionalism and good sense of humor.

My husband and I cannot say enough wonderful things about working with Cadence of Grace.

Capturing our moments authentically and allowing us to enjoy the experience rather than follow “typical” wedding portraits and moments was very important to us and now we have a gallery of moments that perfectly sum up our wedding day and night. At our engagement shoot, we knew we would be in good hands. Pictures can feel like an awkward experience but Jake instantly made us feel comfortable and the final products we have received from the team have blown us away!

Jake and Kristin captured our wedding in the most beautiful light, making everything feel natural, easy, and fun.

They instantly made our guests and family feel at ease and brought out the greatest energy in each individual. The photos speak for themselves, and the experience we had with them was BEYOND incredible. We cannot say enough amazing things about them!

Jake and Kristin are fantastic people and so fun to work with!

Jake did our engagement photos and kept everything relaxed and fun. On the day of they were so helpful in ensuring we got all of the top shots and were so helpful. We began to run behind on our timeline, and they easily got us back on track and stayed cool, calm, and collected! Not to mention, their work is just absolutely gorgeous. They work closely with a videographer, so you don’t have to worry about posing for anything twice. The preview gallery they gave us was the perfect mix of shots throughout the day, and every single one was perfect. I would have been content with only those shots. When the final gallery and videos were delivered, I was so impressed, it blew the preview gallery out of the park. They truly captured all of the emotion and essence of the entire day and I’m so happy to be able to have long-lasting photos to look back on (and a super fun highlight video)! Many many thanks to Jake and Kristin!

Jake and Kristin did an amazing job at my daughter’s wedding.

Their timeline was spot on and the sneak peak pictures are amazing! They capture every single moment of our magical day exactly how we had hoped. Their personalities were so easy going and made our day so fun! No stress ! It was the perfect day. Thank you to Cadence of Grace for making our day so special.

Jacob and Kristin of Cadence of Grace were absolutely amazing to work with for our wedding!

From our first call and the initial engagement shoot, they made us feel completely at ease, even though I’m not always comfortable in front of the camera. They have a true gift for capturing natural, genuine moments, and their signature light and airy style made our photos absolutely beautiful.

They also showcased our venue, Eolia Estate at Harkness State Park, in all its elegance and charm. We received so many compliments from guests about how seamlessly they interacted with our family and friends—always kind, professional, fun, and never intrusive.

Having both Jacob and Kristin as a photography team was a huge advantage. They were able to capture moments from two different angles at once, giving us a more complete and dynamic view of our day, from the first look to candid moments during the reception.

They were also incredibly helpful in managing our wedding timeline. They improvised when needed and helped us capture 90% of our formal photos before the ceremony, giving us time to actually enjoy our cocktail hour. They even worked with our DJ to move the anniversary dance earlier in the evening to make sure it was captured in the best light, and timed our golden hour photos perfectly.

We received a preview gallery of 20 photos less than a week after the wedding, and our full gallery, hundreds of photos, within 60 days. Every image is something we’ll treasure for a lifetime. We’re so grateful they were part of our day. Highly, highly recommend!

Jake and Kristin photographed our wedding this past weekend and they were absolutely incredible to work with!

Their photography is obviously stunning but working with them was an absolutely dream. From our initial phone call with them, we knew we were in good hands. They are both so experienced and professional and knew exactly what we wanted and how best to capture the day. They were so helpful with crafting our timeline for the day and went above and beyond to make sure we got all of our important shots covered including the detail shots of the dress, stationary, hair and makeup, dancing, and everything in between.

They are both so sweet and easy to work with that they set the tone for the day and made sure we were all having fun and enjoying every moment. They took charge of our group when we needed it and were assertive enough to keep us on schedule while being so supportive and positive no matter what was thrown their way. Cannot say enough good things about working with Jake and Kristin and will be referring them to any friends/family planning a wedding!!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Cadence of Grace Photography for our wedding day.

From the very beginning, they took the time to truly get to know us, not just as clients, but as a couple. That personal connection made a huge difference when the big day arrived.

On the wedding day itself, they were absolute pros. They took full control of the photo schedule, keeping everything on track and everyone in line (no small feat with a wedding party + family!). They knew exactly where to be and when, and had a great eye for capturing the most meaningful and beautiful moments, both the big ones and the quiet, candid ones.

What really stood out was how collaborative they were. They constantly checked in with us to make sure we were happy with the direction and never made us feel rushed or overlooked. The sneak peek photos they delivered were absolutely stunning, high quality, thoughtfully composed, and full of emotion. We can’t wait to see the rest!

We’ve already recommended Cadence of Grace to friends, and we’ll continue to do so. If you’re looking for a photographer who’s organized, talented, and genuinely invested in your story, we can’t recommend them enough.

Jake and Kristin absolutely killed our wedding photos!

They were super fun to work with and brought energy to our wedding party, they paid attention to all the details, and they captured all of the special moments between my husband and I! Not to mention they were running around the dance floor to get the perfect dancing shots! 🙂 From the first consult/phone call to all the communication during the planning process, and on our wedding day, they made us feel so comfortable and were so easy to work with. It was also clear they were interested in learning about our story and getting to know us as well as our parents, wedding party, etc. The photos came out so beautiful and we especially love all the candid shots. The photos are a perfect reminder of our wedding day and how truly special it all was. Our wedding day was seamless and would not have been the same without them there! We truly can’t thank them enough!

We also had a great time during our engagement shoot with Jake. It was the perfect chance to get to know each other and made us look forward to our wedding day that much more!

I would highly recommend booking Cadence of Grace for your wedding day! 🤍🤍🤍

Jacob was the most amazing wedding photographer we could have asked for.

He was very communicative from the beginning, with a great initial call, lots of text follow ups, and a really detailed form to make sure he got everything right on our big day. On our actual wedding day, he was awesome. He was so fun to work with, making us laugh and making sure we were enjoying ourselves. It was also so clear that he is a seasoned professional. He had everything down to a science, getting so many photos out of us without making us feel overwhelmed. He even helped us coordinate a miscommunication with our venue and fixed the problem for us before we even knew it was happening! We purchased the three hour package and were totally blown away with how much he was able to get out of every minute. We haven’t received all of our photos yet, but our sneak peeks were breathtaking and I can’t wait to see the rest. I highly recommend Cadence of Grace to anyone who wants high quality photos and a fun photographer who really adds to the spirit of the day!

We love Cadence of Grace!

The talent, passion and love that shines through each photo is incredible! They make you feel so comfortable and like the camera isn’t even there! The whole experience is so much fun! The way they can capture such beautiful, authentic candid shots is amazing! The edits are phenomenal and you get your photos back so quickly! Jake and Kristin are such kind, passionate, loving people that you won’t regret working with!

The results were simply amazing!!!

If you need a photographer that keeps things so light and fresh, while producing amazing shots, this is your photographer! He captured the right moments, the best lighting at just the right angle and used the ocean backdrop of Water’s Edge in Westbrook CT, perfectly! It was exactly what we wanted! You won’t be disappointed if you book Cadence of Grace!

We highly recommend Cadence of Grace. Jacob and Kristin are consummate professionals who do amazing work.

On top of that, they are friendly, kind, and incredibly easy to work with. They were extremely patient and thoughtful of everyone in our wedding party, which included small children. They both have a good feel for the mood of the group and know when the timing is right or wrong. Do yourself a favor and choose Cadence of Grace.

There are truly no words to describe how incredibly talented Jake, Kristin, and their team are.

Not only have they captured our special day in the most PERFECT and stunning way, but they were so FUN and easy to work with on such a busy day. They kept pictures flowing, ensuring to capture all the important shots we asked for, while also taking the time to document candid moments, like our flower girl frolicking around in a field, guests crying during our vows, parents sharing special glances, and everyone breaking it down on the dance floor (and much more). We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives, and for that we cannot thank Cadence of Grace enough. We attached some pictures to this review, but it was so difficult to choose just a few – we love them ALL (close to 600 of them). We are equally in love with our wedding video; it made us cry as we relived our favorite day.

Do not hesitate to book Jake and Kristin. They are incredible at what they do, transparent about pricing, and easy to communicate with. Working them was a breeze and a pleasure, and we could not be happier with the results. Can’t wait to book with them again soon for family photo shoots!

Jake and Kristin were AWESOME! We loved them from our first phone call, but it was incredible to see the big day come to light through their lenses.

They brought great energy, several of our guests even made it a point to tell us that. They were committed to capturing all the special moments, to the point of getting down in the middle of the dance floor or racing to grab a fun shot they saw happening on their way out at the end of the night. From the guided structured pictures to the special moments to the fun party, they’re a 10/10. Would recommend to anyone without hesitation.

Jake and the rest of the crew at Cadence of Grace earned every single piece of this 5 star review.

From the photography aspect to the personality this team brings to your special day, everything hit just right. From your first phone call over a year in advance to the final goodbye at the wedding, Jake was everything we didn’t know we needed in a photographer. From the time we signed a contract, it honestly felt like we were the top priority. In the group chat with my new hubby, Jake, Kristin, and myself, we sent inspo photos, talked about angles, lighting, good sides, bad sides, details, etc. and figured out exactly how we wanted the day to go in terms of photos. We asked for angles, he hit them. We asked for certain lighting, he found it. We needed an obscure aunt, he sent someone to find her. We needed umbrellas, he delegated and got us umbrella boys. From soup to nuts, our experience with CoG was indescribably wonderful. My husband is very reserved, and after meeting Jake, he said that was the first time he genuinely enjoyed having his photo taken because it was fun. He throws in the greatest little one-liners and made our wedding party laugh so hard we couldn’t catch our breath multiple times. THAT is the energy you want on your wedding day, trust me! Growing up in the photo industry, I was meticulous with this decision, and we couldn’t be happier with our wedding story told in his photos. I only wish there was a 6th star to give.
