Jessica was fantastic to work with and took fantastic photos! Our family chose a fairly remote spot on a hiking trail we loved, and it was cold and damp on the day of our shoot. Jess trooped out there with us, in the cold and wet and mud, and took the most beautiful photos. We loved that she included our 11-year-old in the decisions about shots, and that she was also patient about including our dog. We look forward to working with her in the future as our family continues to grow! Jessica & Ben, Exeter RI

“Jessica has shot multiple events for us – Small, large, indoor, outdoor. Regardless of setting we always come away happy with the results and are impressed at how she captures the mood and feeling of the event through her photos. She is also extremely professional, processes photos in a timely manner, and is a lot of fun to work with!” Alex, Newport RI

“Working with Jessica was a blast and her photos are completely beautiful. She has taken maternity, newborn and six-month photos for my twins and me. I can’t imagine it is easy to work with twin babies, but she handled them with such patience and captured the sweetest moments of them sleeping, awake, and being interactive. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to take the important milestone photos for my family.” Janet, Saco ME

“Jessica Pohl is at the top of her game. Her vision, impeccable timing, and creativity are what makes her a stand out. The proof is in the photos. I will be forever grateful for the beautiful moments she captured with my children and will continue to highly recommend her service to everyone.” Maggie, Portsmouth RI

“Jessica is amazing! My family has been working with Jessica Pohl Photography for 2 years.  She has a great eye for unique yet beautifully simple photos!  Both of my kids took to her immediately, which makes photos with small ones easy and stress free!  She came right to our home which made it simple and easy for me to not only get everyone ready but keep them clean!  We trust Jessica to help us capture these priceless moments in our life and she has never let us down.  We will continue to work with Jessica and highly recommend HER and her work!  Thanks Jessica!” Emily, East Greenwich RI

“Jess is an awesome photographer with a very fun unique style.  We love our family photos she’s taken over the years and look forward to working with her again. She makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera and that’s so important!” Melissa, Portsmouth RI

“Jessica is a true gem. From her professional mind set, artistic eye and calm, take charge demeanor – she makes me want to plan events just so I can work with her more often. Her blend of skill and artistry while capturing the true heartbeat and emotional life of each event she views through her lens is a special gift. You will gain a friend, photographer and artist each time you work with her.” Melody, Cranston RI

“I’m usually known as ‘paparazzi’ to my friends with the amount of pictures I take and the emphasis I put on ‘capturing the moment’ so you can imagine my nerves when I hired someone else to be in control of my father’s surprise party. Everything from initial contact to receiving the final pictures was a seamless process. Communicating with Jessica before the event was very helpful and easy to do. She was responsive, helpful and always on point.  She answered all of my questions and provided details on her services, as well as ideas and concepts. Jessica was extremely professional, friendly and was part of our celebration just like any other guest. The guests were comfortable around her, she approached groups with confidence and direction – which is much appreciated by the not-so photogenic folk. And of course, the results: beautifully captured memories of priceless moments. She captured the surprise right at the best moments, and the candids were my favorite. You could go through all of the pictures and feel the same excitement and joy as we did when we were physically there. She made the event come alive again when we received the final package. I would recommend Jessica to anyone in need of photography services and will be using her again at our next special function.” Tiffany, Narragansett RI

“We were so happy to have Jessica photograph our September 2015 wedding at Beavertail State Park and Newport Polo. Leading up to the wedding, she was patient and attentive as we discussed our plans, offering many helpful and creative ideas. She visited the sites before the date and sent us example photos, getting us excited for our big day and feeling confident our photos would look great. The day of, she honored our style preferences and our desire to stay in-the-moment; she was positive, professional, unobtrusive, and very comfortable to be with during such an emotional and stressful time! We were also grateful for her ability to calmly but firmly direct our family members for the group photos. We were delighted with how the photos turned out; loved her intuition on backdrops, poses, and filters.” Amy & Neal, Portsmouth RI

“Jess has been doing my pictures for about two and a half years now. She’s done everything from my wedding to my son’s senior pictures. I have two babies 22 months and 7 months. Jess has done all their photos. I have never been disappointed! Whether it’s an adorable smile or ten tiny toes, I always walk away super happy! She’s great with kids and babies!  I look forward to many more photo shoots to come! Thanks Jessica!” Erika, Portsmouth RI

“We have used Jessica Pohl Photograghy since our daughter was born. She did our newborn shoot, family holiday shoot, our daughters first birthday and a few in between! We love the way she uses natural light and captures our daughter’s personality. She handles the unpredictable nature of a baby/toddler with patience and creativity. Children grow so fast! We are so grateful to have these beautiful memories of our daughter growing up!” Anne & Cornell, Portsmouth RI

“Jessica Pohl creates the most magical moments, leaving you with extraordinary results! During our shoot Jessica was incredibly attentive to my daughter, it was almost as if they were in they’re own little world! She made it fun, free spirited, and completely engaging from start to finish! I found it nearly impossible to pick any single photo over the rest, every shot caught the depth of character and infectious happiness that any parent would want to see from their child. Hands down one of the greatest experiences I have had, and we will certainly work with her again for many years to come!” Brittany, Johnston RI

“Jessica did our wedding! We couldn’t of asked for a better photographer. She is so talented, doesn’t miss a moment, awesome and calming 😉 to be around! We can’t wait to have her do our future family shots. She is so amazing! Coming from me that means a lot considering how detail oriented I am, especially when it comes to photography and it’s safe to say she is the only photographer so far that has exceeded my every expectation! Thank you Jessica for capturing our best memories (so far) so well! We literally love you lol!
-Brenna and Chris”

Brenna & Chris, Hollywood FL

“The pictures that Jessica took of our family gathering are beautiful.  It was such a wonderful experience for us and she has the perfect balance of a relaxed and a take-charge way about her that works so well, especially with a large group.  It was truly special to meet Jessica, having selected her via an online search, and her interaction with our group was a pleasant addition to our good memory making.  Jessica was very generous with her time and tended not only to the grouping list that I had sent to her before the event, but also kindly captured some action shots requested on site by some of the younger set, with results that were very impressive.  I appreciate the editing Jessica did and she accomplished improvements that are significant but undetectable. Overall, having Jessica help us with our family gathering photos was an unexpectedly positive experience, from her relaxed/friendly manner to the competence of the beautiful images she captured of our family, a treasure both in her presence and in her finished product.  Thank you Jessica!” Constance, Boston MA

Jessica took amazing photos of our family. On the way to our photo shoot, our 4 year old fell asleep. Of course she was cranky when she woke up when we arrived at our photo shoot. Jessica did an amazing job in “snapping” our little one out of being grumpy. Jessica took great shots of our family. We will treasure them for a lifetime. We plan on taking more family pics in a few years with Jessica! Rachel & Karl, Bristol RI

Jessica is a true professional: she had all the right ideas and equipment; she took beautiful photos; she spent as much time as we needed…even when our newborn son had a few mid-shoot-meltdowns. We have a great time working with her–and now we have over 80 gorgeous photos as keepsakes. Corie, Portsmouth RI

Jessica just sent pictures of our most recent family reunion. I was impressed with the first 15 or so she sent to give us an idea of what was to follow. We received almost 100 pictures and each one are frame worthy! Her ability to connect with my two grandchildren, each about 2 years old, was amazing. Each picture has the kids smiling, which is no easy feat:). Jessica arrived early and looked closely for the best lighting and backdrop which, of course, enhanced the final project. Arranging the session was easy. She was friendly and completely flexible working around nap schedule. If you are thinking of hiring Jessica…I urge you to do so with confidence!! Thank you Jessica.

Jean, New York NY

Jessica is the absolute best! She has done maternity, newborn, and family photographs for us and we absolutely love her! She is so personable that it makes things easy. She gets wonderful photographs of our family that are now up everywhere in the home. It is difficult to get a great family photo when you have both a baby and toddler but Jessica manages to nail it every time! Thank you Jessica for capturing the best times in our life!

Shannon & Dennis, Barrington RI

My husband and I LOVED working with Jessica! She is kind, fun, flexible, and so so talented! In just a couple of days she already sent us a sneak peak and I must say that she captured our rehearsal dinner and wedding beautifully!!!
We highly recommend her!

Rita & Roy, Boston MA

Jess was awesome!  I am typically shy around cameras and have never been a huge fan of having my picture taken. But Jess made me feel the most comfortable and I truly appreciated that. She was extremely easy to schedule with and is always available when you need her. I would highly recommend Jess for anyone’s special occasion. Erica & Anthony, Middletown RI

Amazing wedding photos!  Jessica was absolutely amazing! She was more than accommodating. My husband and I planned our wedding very short notice and I thought I’d never be able to find a photographer in time. Jessica was 100% there for us! Between helping plan shots, giving us great ideas and just being such a fun person during our pictures. I am in LOVE with our pictures. My wedding was in mid 2019 and I still scroll through my album all of the time. She got some really amazing candid photos that my family and I love.  Thank you so much Jess!! Jessica & Joel, Fall River MA

Words can not explain how wonder it was to have Jessica by our side throughout our wedding journey. From our engagement shoot to the day of the wedding, Jessica took the time to know us and really capture our vision. Besides being our photographer she was also a huge emotional support! The day of the wedding, Jessica connected with all of our guest as she would snap a pic and let them see the pictures throughout the night as a way to include them in her process – guest couldn’t stop talking about how great she was! Jessica’s pictures truly speak for themselves. When we received our album we were truly blown away by the amount of moments she was able to capture and how detail orientated she remained in every single shot. Omeche & Slader, Worcester MA

Jessica was everything we hoped for in a wedding photographer! It rained the day of so we had to go to plan B for most of our group photos and Jessica did an amazing job making them look like our plan A’s. I really did not want to spend my entire wedding day taking photos and miss spending time with all my friends and family that came to town, so I was very pleased that Jessica was fast and got great candids! We got all our wedding party and bride/groom photos done (at several indoor locations and around the neighborhood) in about 2 hours. We got all the family photos done during our cocktail hour and we still got back in time to enjoy a little of the cocktail hour ourselves! Candid photos are always my favorite and Jessica got some real gems during the ceremony, speeches and reception! She had a great variety of close up shots, group shots and wide angle big group shots. She made a Dropbox of the final photos available on time (within about a month) and the prints we got were very high quality! Liz & Nolan, Boston MA

Jessica Pohl has provided us with incredible photos for several of our local clients including Schultzy’s Snack Shack, New England Homemade Donuts, Bay Voyage Restaurant, Newport Blues Cafe, Boss Man Burgers and more. Top-notch work every time – highly recommended! OldPlanet Media, Portsmouth RI

Jessica was a great photographer for our wedding; she came on last minute and really captured all the moments we wanted. She did a beautiful job and was creative with the shots she took; we are very happy with the photos and will use her again or recommend her to others in the future! Patricia & Zach, Groton CT

Jessica came highly recommended to us, so we hired her for our engagement and wedding photos and she certainly didn’t disappoint! Neither of us are keen on having our photos taken as a rule, and it’s generally an awkward experience, but Jessica made the entire experience relaxing and enjoyable for us and our entire party! The photos turned out fantastic, and she gave us a ton to choose from, with a super fast turn around time. Honestly, we can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for a photographer! Katie & Joe, Warwick RI

We had a great experience with Jessica. She arrived on time and was key to helping us stay on schedule the entire day. She made sure she got the shots we requested and took beautiful pictures outdoors. We never felt she was in the way as she really knows what she’s doing all the time. Working with her was great from the moment we first got in touch. She asked the right questions prior to the wedding and provided a preview soon after the wedding day. The only thing I regret is not taking her recommendation on a videographer. We weren’t sure whether it was worth it but looking back, we should have had one for our Mass. Guili & Tracy, Middletown RI

Jessica was amazing and captured the perfect photos on our wedding day! She was incredibly flexible when we wanted to add a first look shot with my parents at the last minute and made sure to get photos of all of our guests throughout the night. She made everyone feel at ease when working with her and we had great communication leading up to the wedding and on the day of. It’s incredible how many perfect candid moments she had beautifully captured and she had gotten the photos back to us so quickly! We were so glad to have had Jessica as our photographer because she takes brilliant photos and we had fun working with her. Melissa & Steve, West Greenwich RI

Jessica really knows how to make the whole process seamless! She took photos of our family and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. She got great shots of our one year old which is not an easy task! She’s quick, efficient and great at what she does. We’re looking forward to booking in 2021!

Meghan & Frank, Rehoboth MA

Jessica did a maternity shoot for us and we’re so grateful she was able to capture this very special time in our lives.  She’s easy going and made us feel comfortable.  Jessica was really flexible and worked with us to find just the perfect location.  I did another shoot with Jessica for professional headshots.  I was so happy with the photos from both shoots and I would definitely recommend working with her. The maternity shoot was taken during the pandemic and she was able to create a way for us to take the photos safely, adhering to social distancing and mask wearing protocols.
Kristen, Westwood MA

Jessica was amazing at every step of our wedding process. Planning our wedding during the pandemic was challenging, but finding and working with Jessica was by far the easiest part of the entire process. She was great at communicating with us prior to our wedding date & was amazing during the wedding. I can’t thank her enough for helping us stay calm through all the little things that can happen during a wedding (our Justice of the Peace was late), and of course for her beautiful pictures. Jessica helped capture lifelong memories for us that we will always treasure. Looking back through Jessica’s photos I am so glad that she was there & I wouldn’t change a thing about our wedding day.

Lindsay & Elliot, Columbia CT

Our family has used Photography by Jessica Pohl for weddings and many family photo sessions as our family continues to grow! The photos she took of our daughter’s wedding are spectacular! From bridesmaids getting ready, through the reception, she got both posed photos and amazing candids of family and friends! She was also able to wrangle all 18 (soon to be 19!) of us, including 7 little ones, and come up with some amazing pictures during a casual family photo session. She is kind, patient, professional, extremely talented and fun!! Her artistic ability to capture special moments is exceptional and you can feel the emotions of each person she photographs. I highly recommend Jessica if you want to capture your lifetime memories!

Barbara & Steve, Portsmouth RI

I have had many experiences with different photographers over the years. Jessica Pohl was the most professional, reliable, and overall wonderful photographer we have ever used! Jessica replied to emails promptly, she answered any questions we had, she gave suggestions on location, and was flexible with all our wants and needs. She had all our photos back to us quickly and even showed us some of our photos during the shoot to make sure we liked them! She was great with our children and made the overall experience a pleasure. We enjoyed working with her and will cherish the photos she took of us for years to come!! We are so thankful we found her and highly recommend her!!

The Murray Family, Portsmouth RI

Fantastic find! Jessica was referred to us by a friend of ours and we were extremely impressed by her professionalism, quality and her attention to detail with our wedding day photos. We would highly recommend Jessica to anyone who is looking for a fantastic photographer.

Grant & Amy, Portsmouth RI

Jessica was amazing! Not only do we love our wedding photos, she was invaluable during wedding planning. Because of the pandemic, our plans (as far as location) changed a lot. She was patient in helping us figure out how to shoot our big day in a safe way. It was so comfortable having her there, even though we had only met in person that day! Highly recommend Jessica!

Cat & Danny, Newport RI

Jessica is an incredibly talented photographer. She has taken pictures of our family for several years, including for holiday cards and at family gatherings. She is personable, easygoing, and great with kids. She makes fantastic suggestions about where to locate the photo shoot but is also flexible and willing to accommodate any location as necessary. On the back end, she is quick to edit and share photos, sometimes in just a few days! We look forward to working with Jessica in the years to come and highly recommend her.

Kate & Matt, Needham MA

Jessica has taken our family Christmas photos & my daughter’s birthday photos for the past 3 years. We absolutely love the way she interacts with our daughter. She is so patient & makes the experience so much fun. Not just for our daughter, but also for my husband & I. Jessica is easy to work with & goes with the flow. Her suggestions, ideas & creativity never disappoint. We have loved the photos each & everytime & are looking forward to out next session.

Jen & Steve, Johnston RI

If there’s one thing on your wedding day that you want (despite marrying your special someone) is beautiful, fun, and special pictures – at least it was that way for me. Let me tell you, Jess provided it. On a day of absolute pouring rain, my anxiety was even higher about getting those “perfect pictures”. Jessica went above and beyond. She was constantly reassuring, always checking in to see how we’re doing, and stayed organized. She was always professional, kind, and had a little bit of fun from what I could see (photo booth pictures). She checked in with emails throughout this year long process, was totally okay with my crazy dog being involved with everything, and never once seemed flustered. I couldn’t thank her enough for the memories she provided.
Also, did I mention she takes pictures of adoptable animals for a local animal shelter? How awesome is that? Thank you Jess! I hope to work with you again someday. You’ll be recommended from me to all of my friends and family.

Sydnie & Cody, Swansea MA

Jessica is amazing! She did my maternity photos on the beach with my husband and two dogs last summer and the experience (and the photos) were so great! She made it a very fun and enjoyable experience which isn’t easy with two dogs! The pictures came out so beautiful – can’t recommend Jess enough and I will definitely be booking a family photo shoot in the near future!

Alyssa, Narragansett RI

For those of you who are considering using Photography by Jessica Pohl for a special occasion, I highly recommend her! My husband and I were very stressed and hesitant when planning our wedding back in 2020 during the pandemic. We knew that the possibility of having to postpone our special day was a possibility, and we wanted to find the best photographer who would be accommodating and understanding if our original plans changed. Jessica Pohl went above and beyond to make our wedding extraordinary. In her wedding packages, Jessica offers a 1-hour engagement photoshoot to get to know her couple’s better. I highly recommend doing this! It was a great way for my husband and I to get to know Jessica informally, as well as gave Jessica the opportunity to study which lighting and angles suited us prior to the wedding day. During our photoshoot, we knew that we had made the right choice in going with Jessica as she was very friendly, creative, and easy to work with. Our wedding day was nothing short of perfection. Jessica captured every moment of our special day. Every time we look at our wedding gallery of photos, we are reliving the best day of our lives! Words cannot express how truly grateful we are for choosing Photography by Jessica Pohl and for making our dreams a reality! We will certainly be using her again in the future, and we hope you do too!

Julia & Jake, Bristol RI

We LOVED working with Jessica for our family photos! She was fun, energetic and easy to work with! She took so many wonderful photos it was hard to choose our favorites! She even included our two year old French Bulldog! The whole process was easy from start to finish! We HIGHLY recommend her and look forward to working with her again!

Stacey, Pawtucket RI

My husband and I chose Jessica as our wedding photographer for our wedding on May, 14 2021, and we could not be happier with our decision. Jessica first did our engagement photos which were complimentary with our package that we chose. My husband and I are both on the shy side, and my husband hates having his photos taken yet by the end of the engagement session my husband mentioned more than once how he enjoyed it and had so much fun. Jessica made us laugh  non stop and made us  feel so comfortable. She stated that at any point if we didn’t want to do a certain pose or felt uncomfortable to let her know. She was also open to suggestions however she is so skilled that we let her be in control. Leading up to the wedding Jessica was quick to respond to any questions I had and always mentioned how she was there for me if I needed help with anything even if it was not related to the photography. She wanted to make the process as stress free as possible for us. Now how many people would go above and beyond like she did? The day of our wedding she made us feel so comfortable and at ease and took all of our worries and stress away. Her kindness  consistently shone through and did not go unnoticed. Throughout the day she made sure that my husband and I and I were enjoying the moments we shared and she provided us with endless laughs. She has so much passion and excitement for what she does and it is evident in her work. When we reviewed our final album I was blown away with the talent that she has. The photos were not only stunning but she captured the moments so beautifully. Thanks to Jessica I am able to relive the best day of my life every time I look at the photos( which is quite often). I will be requesting Jessica for any other photo sessions in the future because she is as close to perfection as they come.
Keri & Jim, Norton MA

Jessica was amazing to work with from start to finish. She worked with us to find the best package for our needs and was so incredibly helpful throughout the night. I personally get very nervous having my photo taken but Jessica made it fun when we were getting ready and took the most amazing photos of our day! Her communication has always been great and we got our photos back promptly. When I ever need a photographer again she will be my first call.
Rachel & Kevin, Naugatuck CT

I’m not sure there’s enough words to explain how important Jessica was for our wedding day. From our engagement session up until the wedding day (2 years apart), Jessica was there the WHOLE entire time. She consistently checked in with us along the way and asked how we were doing, if we needed help with anything whatsoever. We first met Jessica when we were gifted a engagement session with her. Our engagement session was freezing- and the amount of beautiful photos she snapped within 45 minutes- to an hour was incredible. She was 100% on board with us bringing our fur baby for a few pictures and she was amazing with him!
I really wanted our wedding shower to be documented with some photos because I knew I wouldn’t remember to go around taking photos of everything and everyone. She arrived early, did her thing and when we arrived, we did posed photos with almost every guest! I mean she even made a picture of our popcorn table look gorgeous. She was super on top of it the whole night with getting guests in the photo arch in & out and making sure we got the most important people taken care of. The wedding day was absolutely beautiful and a big part of that is due to her for giving us the most beautiful memories to look back on. The whole day Jess was spectacular. From getting ready with the guys – then trooping her way to the hotel to be with the girls. The camera was going the whole entire time she was there. Everyone had nothing but great things to say about her. Once reality set in and the tears came closer to the ceremony, she kept assuring me things were going fine, everything’s going perfect, etc. At the ceremony and reception Jessica made sure to get all angles covered. Her attentiveness was what we needed, her patience was appreciated, especially with our large and in charge wedding party & her kindness was above and beyond. From the oldest guest to the youngest, she was amazing with them! We received over 700+ photos in our gallery and every single one is absolutely perfect. We will be using Jessica for every single event we have that we need professional photos done for. I cannot recommend her enough & I cannot thank her enough for such beautiful work.
Samantha & Luke, Riverside RI

We had a wonderful experience with Jessica. Not only did she do a great job with our newborn photos but she was also able to capture beautiful family photos that we will cherish forever. Jessica is very responsive, patient and professional. She was amazing at involving our 1 and 3 year old (who wanted to be the center of attention) while it was time for the newborn pictures. I was also very impressed by how easily she got our dogs attention for the pictures (something we always struggle with)! I highly recommend Jessica and will be calling her for our future photo needs.
Kerri, Bristol RI

Jessica is absolutely amazing. She is so incredibly talented. If you’re trying to decide if you should book a family session, maternity session or a newborn session- don’t hesitate! She makes you feel so comfortable and makes the experience fun. Her personality, communication skills, quick turn around with sneak peaks makes the experience flawless. I will forever cherish my family pictures and newborn photos. She is so patient and genuinely wants to get your perfect shot. I highly recommend Jessica for all occasions. I have seen her in action at a wedding and she doesn’t miss a beat! We love you Jessica & thank you!
