Grand Jour

It only takes one click on any of Simon’s videos to see the talent and vision that he has for videography. Each production is like a movie with a plot, perfectly paired music, and stunning visual interest. My wife and I had introductory conversations with several videographers while planning our wedding in Asheville, and Simon completely stood apart from the rest. Not only does he produce moving works of art with his films, but he is humble and easy-going, and he felt like an old friend. That’s the type of connection we were looking for, and that was precisely the experience we had with Simon throughout both our engagement session and our wedding.

The videos he produced were breathtaking. As we shared the videos with our family and friends, the overwhelming opinion was that they were the quality of a big screen movie. With Simon's talent sewing together moments and experiences throughout our wedding, he gave us the gift of reliving these magical memories. We couldn’t recommend Simon enough!!! More...

Working with Simon was one of the best decisions we made when wedding planning. He spends the time to get to know your priorities and desires for your photography on a Zoom meeting when you book. He also checks in as the date nears to make sure he has all the needed details to provide the best service making the day-of stress free in regards to where he should be at what times and what moments/events mean the most for you to have photographed and how. We had 2 locations the day of and the whole thing was seamless. Simon arrives early to scope scenes and lighting to make each stage of the day efficient keeping you on your timeline (seems obsessive but trust me its very important). As far as the artistry and talent just look at his galleries and it speaks for itself. There is something very unique and deep about his style. We were even more stunned by our wedding album than our engagement album which he also did for us (I do recommend getting his package deal!). The photos he created for us will be treasured by us and our families for our whole lives. So much is captured in Simon’s work of the people and many relationships in the photos and in the spaces between those “big” moments. He’s got the intuition of what to capture and how. Get on Simon’s calendar ASAP! More...

We went to @Montgomery Farms for Christmas pics and my toddler wasn’t having it. Simon was able to capture amazing pictures of my son and I! I don’t know how he did it, but I am more than impressed! Amazing work and he is fabulous to work with! More...

Simon is incredibly talented and so wonderful to work with! He is communicative, flexible, thoughtful, and has a very discerning eye. He took photos and made a video for our tiny wedding so that we could share the experience with all those who were not there, and we could not be happier with his work. He is also just a delightful human to get to work with. My husband and I recommend him very highly! We are so glad we got the chance to work with him! More...

GrandJour no doubt captured our wedding day perfectly! Simon is incredible at his job and amazing to work with. He carried a kind and creative energy throughout the entire night, making a point to capture the scenery, little moments and family portraits. Our plans shifted due to covid-19, and, Simon was flexible with us each step of the way. We are beyond grateful for Simon and GrandJour! Many Thanks - Alli and Mike Foster More...
