I had a blast! It was so much fun to do so many different sets. I love the variety. My pictures came out so well and I’m very glad I chose to come here. I would recommend others to come here!

My experience at Jim Payette Photography was wonderful. I was very hesitant at first of being in front of a camera, but after the first couple of shots, I got a lot more relaxed and comfortable with the situation. It was a fun experience and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Thanks.

Today was a first time experience for me with participation in a photoshoot, and it couldn’t have been better. I had a great time doing it and felt completely comfortable. A few things were foreign to me but I learned quickly what to do and had tons of fun.

I wanted my Senior Pictures to be different from my friends, and you offered a large variety of settings for my pictures. Jim and Dorothy were very pleasant to work with and were also a lot of fun. They listened to my suggestions as to how I wanted my pictures, and they offered great advice to make them better.

At first I was nervous, but it was much easier than I expected and Jim and Dorothy made me feel comfortable. I would recommend this to anyone.

Mr. Payette really cared about what I wanted for my pictures and did not complain when I asked to see something new.

I had such a great time getting my pictures taken. We laughed, talked and got to know each other a little better. I really like the fact that I was able to suggest some poses of my own and also change my outfit as many times as I wanted. Spending my afternoon taking picture was a lot of fun! Thank you!

I enjoyed my sessions very much and I loved all the different types of poses and backgrounds. It was a lot of fun to get to be able to take such different types of photographs, especially with my mom.

This was a great experience. I had so much fun. I never thought it was going to be such a great time. I would love to do it again.

It was a very comfortable time and a lot of fun. Jim really worked with me and was very patient with me and how tired I was. He helped with different scenes and views that I wouldn’t have thought of, and it was just a happy fun morning.

I really liked getting my photos done here. It was such a great experience! The different techniques that were used were great. I loved the many different places we shot at! So many different photos to choose from and I liked them all!

It was overall organized and fun. There were a lot of cool props. The whole setup was nice, no complaints here. The pictures were done well, lighting was good and I liked the backgrounds.

I enjoyed a relaxed session and got to listen to music as we photographed with plenty of different background scenes.

My photo session went very well. I felt my creativity and personality were captured in the photos taken. The photos turned out great! I can’t wait to show my friends and family!

I had an amazing experience at Jim Payette Photography, from their personalities to their props. I would recommend JPP to all my friends and family.

Jim Payette Photography was an amazing experience. It was comforting and Jim gave me a lot of opportunities to get some amazing shots.
