Reviews for Jess Irwin Photography

Lovely lady and perfect photos!
Jess stepped in when my photographer was unable to make it last minute and I’m so glad she did! She was absolutely lovely all day, helped me with my train or bouquet through the day and was very patient when my Jimmy Choo’s were hurting me!😂 it was so easy to be photographed by her, which we both were nervous about, she put us both at ease and it wasn’t awkward at all! It did not feel like I’d only met her on that day. I’ve had my sneak peaks back and they’re perfect. I’m so pleased with them. I cannot wait to see the rest of them! My original photographer is editing my photos but the photos she has to edit from Jess are top tier!!! Thank you again so much Jess. You saved our day!!!💗💗💗
