We met Jana at another friend’s wedding that she was working, and I did not consider any other photographers; we didn’t need to. She was, and is, awesome. I wasn’t even engaged at the time and I already knew she would be my photographer.We spent the months leading up to the wedding planning every aspect - my inner-planner loved it. Jana knew all the right questions to ask and things to consider. Our Wedding day did not go to plan at all. Our wedding day was 5/27/18 near Main street Ellicott City, Maryland. This was the day of the historic flooding: 11 inches of rain in about 3 hours. I had planned on an outdoor wedding, and that nice idea was not an option on this day. We had bigger problems with guests getting stuck in the floods on the surrounding roads, including Jana herself. She almost didn’t make it from my parents house to the venue; nevertheless, she persisted and found higher ground after getting flooded out in Ellicott City. After the Ceremony, we were cramped inside the venue, we had the scheduled family photos to shoot, and the first words out of Jana’s mouth were “Rain Check?”. This was in reference to the photos I had wanted in the sun and evening light, so the priority at this point for the day was to take the family photos. Jana had my back as we went through the tedious process of family photos and keeping people out of the frame (way more challenging than it looks). There was nowhere else in the venue for guests to go, so this took a lot longer than expected. It was a stressful day and I’m glad it has passed; but, the best thing I did was take Jana up on the rain check reshoot. It was the best gift ever, and she didn’t think twice about it. I could have gone back to the venue, but why?...when I could choose any location without cost being a factor. So I picked Longwood Gardens: it’s a beautiful place that makes me so happy that I could live there. Jana was down for the adventure, and we planned out our next shoot date with no problems - and thankfully it didn’t rain. I got to have my beautiful dress photographed in glorious evening sunlight at a stunning location. I had a figure-hugging gown with a 10 foot train, so I was pretty upset not having photos of this outside on display. We got to have photos of us together, as well as immediate family - with no rain or limitations of being inside. These are the photos on my wall that I show friends and family. These are the photos I look at everyday. Making the choice to prioritize the family photos on the wedding day and hold off the other photos I wanted was the best decision Jana and I made. I will never have all those family members in one place again. It wasn’t what we planned for the day, but Jana adapted to the situation and we rolled with it.Bottom line: Jana has your back. She’ll drive through flooded waters for you (unknowingly), adapt to the changing environment, and will make sure you get the photos you want, come rain or shine. More...

Jana is so wonderful and we can’t recommend her enough! She photographed my sister’s wedding two years ago, and I immediately knew I wanted to have her capture my own wedding. Hiring her when the time came was one of the very first, top-priority wedding planning tasks we did! Jana is so passionate, professional, talented, fun, and kind. She did both our engagement shoot and wedding, and the photos were so gorgeous, artful, and full of emotion. She really knows her stuff, and helped us to draft a solid wedding-day timeline in the months leading up to the wedding. On the wedding day itself, she helped ensure we were following the timeline and also coordinated with other vendors. We had a short thunderstorm before the ceremony, and she and her lovely assistant Sam took it in stride, worked around it, and made sure we still got all of the shots we had been hoping for. I admit I was a pretty demanding bride, with a clear vision in mind, and Jana had so much shared enthusiasm and great ideas. I really hope to work with her again in the future! She is worth every single penny— wedding photos last a lifetime, and I’m excited to share our beautiful pictures with our kids and grandkids some day :) Thank you, Jana! More...

Jana Scott is the absolute best! She's patient, creative, and has a great eye to capture the best pictures. She made not just myself, but my husband feel so relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. Not once did we ever feel rushed or that we were just another client to Jana. Our whole wedding party felt that she was so easy going and captured every shot perfectly. Jana made sure not a single detail was missed on our big day and we cannot thank her enough. I still stare daily at not only at our wedding photos, but also at our engagement photos as well. I'd recommend Jana to anyone who is looking for a wedding photographer. More...

Jana is phenomenal! She is a fun high energy person with great ideas. She performs her job with high enthusiasm and great passion. Jana did two separate timelines for our wedding as we had some setbacks while planning the big day. Jana had great ideas throughout the wedding planning process not just in the photography end but, other areas as well. She was great to work with and we enjoyed planning the entire event.

The most important person to invest in for a wedding is a photographer. Wedding photos are something you will cherish for years and years to come. Jana was everything I had hoped for and more. Every time I look at my wedding photos, I feel as if I am reliving the day over and over again. Every picture was carefully thought out and she did not give up until she got the right shot. I cannot thank her enough for the excellent work she has done! Jana was a joy to work with and even to this day I get compliments about how great my photographer was. Not only was she a photographer, but she doubled as a wedding day coordinator also. She had an entire wedding morning timeline written out. She made sure we got all of the pictures we wanted before the ceremony began. Jana is a professional and obviously very experienced. She was there for me with anything I needed and I would most definitely recommend her to anyone! More...

To say that Jana was just our wedding photographer on our big day is a vast understatement. She was our wedding expert, crisis manager, day-of-coordinator, supporting friend, and obviously the most amazing wedding photographer that we could have asked for. From Day 1 when my husband and I hired Jana for our September wedding - she helped us with every aspect of our wedding planning agenda. Because she is an absolute expert in the wedding industry she was able to offer so many insightful tips during the planning process; many items that my husband and I would have never thought about on our own. Not to mention, we were planning our wedding from over 1,000 miles away (without a wedding planner) and Jana's communication and assistance was invaluable to us.

And if you are looking for a photographer who will work with you to tell your love story, she is the one to be with. During our engagement session she really spent time getting to know my husband and I so that she could take photos that really revealed our unique love and personalities. There were several times I remember her saying something along the lines of "oops that photo doesn't look like you guys, let's try something else" and the finished product was absolutely a direct look into the love that my husband and I share.

We live in a world of "Pinterest obsession" where brides plan out every aspect of their big day based on photos and images from previous brides posted all over social media - but I can assure you that Jana will capture those moments that you never even dreamed of during the planning process on your big day. We gave Jana a few "must-have" photos that we wanted on our big day, but the ones we loved the most were the ones that she put together and captured for us. That to us is the mark of a true professional in our opinion.

Something else that set Jana apart from many other wedding professionals in the area was her willingness to be completely immersed in your big day. Jana never sets a time limit on your wedding day and is there from the very beginning to the very end. It was such a relief to know she was always there capturing those special moments all day long.

My husband and I are forever grateful for the memories that she gave to us from our engagement session to our big day. Thank you just doesn't feel like enough for a wedding vendor who truly made our wedding day, but it is definitely a start. I cannot recommend Jana highly enough to brides-to-be!

When you're crying happy tears over the photos she delivers to you, you'll thank me for letting you know she's the absolute must have for your wedding day.

We honestly can't say enough wonderful things about working with Jana. As someone who isn't super comfortable with being in front of the camera, it meant the world to have someone behind the lens that I felt comfortable with and who has such a genuine love for what they do- and that's Jana.
And the pictures were nothing short of amazing. She captured everything so naturally with the most amazing light... she got it right on the spot.
Jana was nothing but professional when it came to her communication with us as well- she were kept in the loop every step of the way in such a timely manner- no hidden surprises which made everything so easy.
I am constantly looking back at my pictures in awe of what she was able to capture. Everything was such a blur that day, and through the amazing pictures she captured we are able to relive it in the most amazing way.

Jana Scott was the best photographer we could have asked for on our wedding day. Her product (the photos) are beautiful, enchanting and truly speak for themselves. However, it was her service - and ultimately her personality - that put her in an elite category as a professional photographer. We initially contacted Jana to shoot some engagement photos for us at Penn State. From the first phone call with her, she made us feel very comfortable. She answered questions with ease, had helpful direction and was confident. All of these factors made it so easy to trust her. Then when we met in person and completed the engagement session, we knew we HAD to have Jana photograph our wedding. We loved her and honestly would have been disappointed if she wasn't with us on our big day. As an engaged couple planning, we didn't immediately realize how large the role of a photographer is, but we quickly learned - especially as we were creating the timeline for the wedding day. Bride & Groom, family, friends, guests spend all day with the photographer. It's a big deal... and Jana rocked it! Numerous guests (including parents) remarked on how good she was, kind she was, personable she was. And it's all so true. The planning process, to the wedding day, to the services and products she provides after it's all done are simply top notch. We are beyond grateful to have had Jana Scott photograph our wedding, and truly, we cannot recommend her enough. An investment with her and her level of service is something you'll be very thankful you did - not only on your wedding day but in the years to come. More...

Jana was an absolute dream to work with. She was so accommodating throughout the entire engagement and wedding process! We knew we wanted Jana to be our photographer from the moment we saw her beautiful work, but we could never have imagined how wonderful it was to work with her.

She always made us feel SO comfortable (which is saying something, because my husband and I don't love having our pictures taken) and she did a great job of capturing our personalities! On the wedding day itself she did a great job of keeping us on schedule and making sure all of our priority pictures got taken. From the early morning golf game, to getting ready, to the ceremony, to the reception she also captured all of the little moments in the day that made it so incredibly special.

She got all of our photos back to us within a few short weeks and we were truly moved by how incredibly beautiful they were. Jana has an unparalleled ability to capture the love of the day in artistic and meaningful ways. We will cherish our photos for many years to come and we are so thankful that we were able to work with her for one of the most important days of our lives.

Working with Jana for our wedding was a wonderful experience. We felt welcomed from the very beginning by Jana's warm personality and positive energy. Even her quaint and beautifully decorated space in downtown Lemont, PA inspired confidence that she was the person to realize an artistic vision for our wedding.

We had originally planned for a photographer to take pictures just on our wedding day, but, after meeting with Jana, decided that we also wanted an engagement session. Both days were fantastic. We were able to put up great pictures from our engagement session at our wedding and will be including them in our thank you cards. The wedding itself went very smoothly and Jana spent the entire day with us capturing fantastic pictures that we will always cherish. She even managed to wrangle one of my overly-energetic and goofy groomsmen into standing still for a number of our planned photos.

Overall, my wife and I found Jana to be incredibly friendly and professional. I have no doubt that anyone hiring Jana will be happy with the end result, whether it's for a wedding or any type of photo session.

Everyone tells me that our photos look like they came straight out of a magazine. Our biggest criteria for a photographer on top of a high quality product was that they capture the emotion of the day. We have big families that love to party and we wanted the fun of the day to be reflected in our photos. You can tell in all of our photos that we were all having a blast!! I love everything about Jana from the quality of the photos to how easy she is to work with! She even incorporated our dog into our sessions! I would HIGHLY recommend her to ANYONE!! More...

Jana was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was so organized from the very first meeting and helped me be prepared to think about things I would have never thought about. She has such a passion for what she does and it's absolutely contagious to be around. She pours time and love into all her shots and products and we couldn't be happier with all our finished products. She was wonderful to work with and I would recommend her to anyone! More...

Jana was amazing! She knew exactly how to utilize her surroundings in order to capture the perfect images for our engagement and wedding photos. From the way she finds the perfect lighting in order to portray a feeling within the picture, to the way she seeks out the perfect background to bring out our character in our portraits, I couldn't have asked for a better execution of an amazing wedding! Everybody fell in love with her during the reception and she found her way into the middle of the action in order to capture the most fun and exciting moments of the party. The presentation of her work and quality of prints are second to none. I would recommend Jana to anybody! More...

We used Jana Scott Photography for our wedding in September 2014 in PA and I was extremely pleased with the entire experience. Jana was exceedingly professional, organized, thoughtful and accommodating. My husband and I live overseas and Jana was flexible enough to work with us over the phone or email leading up to and after the wedding date. During the planning phase, she thought of lots of details that hadn't even crossed our minds, saving us time and hassle down the road. On the day of the wedding she arrived at the venue several hours before the ceremony to plan out all of the locations for photos so that everything went smoothly and we got the maximum amount of time with our guests afterwards.

We didn't know what we wanted at all in terms of photography and completely relied on Jana's suggestions and artistic vision. Jana takes pride in the quality of her work and will go the extra mile to make sure her clients are satisfied. We couldn't be happier with the results and we love our photos! I would recommend her to anyone.

Jana was absolutely wonderful to work with. She's super organized (something I desperately needed as we were getting married out of state), kind, calm, and encouraging. She was available and responsive whenever I had a question or concern, and was quick to offer advice or alternative solutions if she could sense that the "wedding stress" was getting to me -- THANK YOU! :) It's been months since the wedding and she's still made herself available to us whenever we have a question about developing or hanging/arranging wedding photos, thank goodness because I am not the most artistic person! Talk about awesome customer service.

I knew right away that she was the perfect photographer for us because she was able to make us both feel comfortable in front of the camera and came up with lovely natural settings for our photographs. We bonded over our shared love for woodland/wetland shots and the final products (engagement and wedding day) were just stunning. She took me hiking in my wedding dress, come on.. amazing! I especially appreciated her encouraging words during our sessions. She knew how to position us and gave us tips on posing so she could capture your most flattering angle. Ladies, holla if you hear me.

Everyone in our wedding party was impressed with her professionalism and quick-thinking. One of my guests already booked Jana for her wedding and countless other friends have been calling "dibs" ever since! The "artistic weddings" tag line in her brand name is absolutely the truth. I wasn't going to hire someone who could take simple staged photos (I mean, even I can do that). I needed an artist who could see things that I couldn't -- the perfect sliver of light or over-arching tree limb, that makes a photo truly a piece of art. That is Jana to a tee!

Jana is worth every penny. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for gorgeous, timeless photos!

Jana Scoot photographed my wedding and did a wonderful job! I was really happy with her thoughtful processes she talked to me several times before the wedding and helped me lay out a time line for the whole wedding. In essence she was like a wedding planner, she helped me to think of things I had never thought of and the time line was great for the day of because it helped everyone to stay on track. We choose to do most of our formal photos a few hours before the ceremony which I was so happy with because everyone looked fresh and no one felt rushed to get the pictures over. We did a lot of our pictures on our property out doors and they turned out beautiful. Jana gave me a whole day of her time she was at my house around 8am is and stayed till 7pm. As a side note she drove like 40 miles to get to where my wedding was. She took pictures of the girls and guys getting ready, she took pictures of our “first look”, and she took tons of formal pics, ceremony pics and party pictures. The package I choose we got all the digital copies of the photos and we got TONS of photos.
Over all my experience was great! I would recommend Jana for sure!

Jana was truly amazing throughout our entire process, & our photos were s dream come true! From the first moment Jana kept in touch with us often, supported our vision of what we wanted our wedding photos to be, & offered us nothing but her best. On the day of our wedding, Jana was amazing, & it really felt like we were spending time with a friend, not just a photographer: our pictures clearly reflected this. I would highly, highly recommend Jana to anyone who wants vibrant, gorgeous photos of their wedding. She also made it incredibly easy to make our photos available to our guests! There's mo one better! More...

I truly cannot say enough about how fantastic Jana is!!!! To say she is talented is an understatement; Jana has an amazing gift for capturing every moment in the most crucial way. On the morning of my wedding, seeing Jana provided a sense of calm. She was more than my photographer, she was my wedding planner and helped me so much through the process!!! Jana added to the excitement of our day and even our guests and wedding party (16 attendants!) commented on how amazing our photographer was. Simply put, go with Jana, you will not regret it!!!

Jana was great from the start! Before signing on to work with her, she gave me a call to give me a run down of how she worked and get an idea of what I was looking for. Throughout the process she worked with me, with consistent check ins, to give ideas and allow me to provide ideas as well. In order to get pictures that I wanted on Penn State's campus, she came and met my husband and I for a next day session, after working late the night before capturing all the events of our reception. The pictures were great and she had a great attitude the whole time. She also stepped in at moments of panic when I couldnt get my sash tied or my veil to work- shes a great, well rounded woman to have on hand at any wedding!! More...

Jana was our dream wedding photographer. We loved her style and her artistic vision, but after we met her, the deal was sealed--we had to have her photograph our wedding! In addition to being an amazing photographic artist, Jana is a true professional and is very organized and detailed and thinks of everything! She anticipated every challenge we could have faced during the wedding, even taking time before the wedding to map out a route for post-ceremony photos so we could all make it to the reception on time. She took some of our photo ideas and made them a reality, creating some beautiful and memorable art for my husband and I to have forever to remember our day. She puts her all into every wedding she does, and it shows in her beautiful work. She's also really fun to be around! You can never go wrong with Jana as your wedding photographer. More...

As everyone knows planning a wedding can be overwhelming, exhausting, and sometimes a little crazy! I found the key to maintaining “wedding zen” is surrounding yourself with vendor’s/“great people” that make the process enjoyable, keep it honest, and share in your vision. Selecting a wedding photographer by far was one of the most important things you can do – it’s your way of commemorating the day in which all of your hard work comes to life.

Jana Scott Photography was recommended by my wedding site vendor “Lily Manor” and she couldn't have been more spot-on. Jana is ORGANIZED, well versed in the wedding process, genuinely kindhearted, patient, and was interested in our wedding goals as a couple. The day of our wedding it was hot and when I say hot I mean the hottest day of the year however you would have never known it! Jana managed the day like a pro – with heat brings frustrated people but she was able to manage our 25 person wedding party with effortlessness, a little laughter, and a smile. We have received our pictures and we couldn't be more excited and pleased with the final products – the only problem we have is narrowing the choices down…and that is a problem I can deal with!!!! I would 100% recommend using Jana Scott Photography for your wedding – she provided an experience not just a service!

Jana was the most accommodating vendor I worked with throughout my entire wedding planning process. She has had multitudes of experience with both wedding and engagement sessions, and provides both quality images and continual feedback. In addition to her credibility, she is both kind and passionate about her work. It has been my experience working with her that she is willing and able to create both formal, traditional images as well as casual, modern, and artistic images. Without reservation, I would recommend Jana Scott ten fold. More...
