Jack Gescheidt

They say that your wedding is one of the best days of your life. I have hopefully many more days to experience so I’m not entirely sure on that, but one thing is for sure: it’s really important to capture the moment, especially because the day flies by so quickly!
Jack was our wedding photographer, and I have got to say that he was absolutely wonderful! My husband and I wanted our wedding to be as fun and easy as possible, and Jack fell into step with us, all while providing us with much-​needed guidance throughout the process. We spoke several times over the phone, and he took particular pains to be sure that he captured our personalities on our special day. He talked with us about different moments throughout the ceremony, especially focusing on trying to give US the best experience possible. He was not just our photographer, but I feel that he was our guest. He was incredibly easy to work with, and the pictures we were given as a result were just incredible. He expertly captured not just moments from our wedding, but the feeling and that’s incredible. There’s just no other way to say it.
Jack is professional, sensitive, has exquisite attention to detail, but most of all: he makes you feel like you’re the most important person in the world. Who could ask for more in a perfect wedding photographer?! Thank you, Jack! I look forward to the next time I get to see you!

Jack is the best! We’ve worked with him a few times since he photographed our wedding, did another shoot when my daughter was two, and the most recent when my daughter was 5. We’ve been lucky to work with him. For one, it’s a lovely experience since he recommends the most stunning outdoor locations and helps us relax and and enjoy the time together. He is intuitive, kind, thoughtful, fun, perceptive and all those good things you’d want in a photographer and friend too.

Jack photographed our wedding 15 years ago and did a fantastic job. When we needed someone for our son’s bar mitzvah we contacted him again. He was exceptional in every way-​creative, reliable, responsible, unobtrusive and a pleasure to work with. He was so committed to getting great shots that he climbed over the top of a rickety old basketball hoop to photograph our son and his friends. We give him the highest recommendation!

This is a note I wrote to Jack to thank him for his DSLR photo workshop. It was truly a great day:
Jack —
It’s hard to know where to begin — there is so much to thank you for!
I really appreciated having the day to spend together at your workshop — you taught me so much more than I’ve ever known about my camera. I especially enjoyed learning about the manual settings on my camera, and how you answered all of our questions — I learned so much about seeing and light and how to ask myself questions while I’m working so that I can create a better photo. I especially appreciated your kindness in teaching me how to deal with my inner critic, which allowed me to relax and really enjoy the day and have fun! More than that though, you taught me about the art of looking — new ways to compose pictures to make them more dynamic and interesting.
Thanks again so much, and I’ll look forward to the next one!
Best regards
Beth

Jack is professional, kind, fun, creative, fast and precise. He has handled several major photography projects for us with exquisite care and results.
WEDDING — a difficult change of venue with low light (because it rained! He handled the bride gracefully and added joy and ease to the last minute changes); We got a gorgeous album that simply captured the joy, the love, and the fun we all had!
ARTWORKS ARCHIVING — a grueling week of handling delicate artwork exceptionally managed by Jack and his team, and completed early!
PROFESSIONAL IMAGE — Jack captured my updated business image, and managed the necessary touch-​ups with an artists flair! The final result came out gorgeous!
We love working with Jack, and trust that you will too!

My husband and I hired Jack to photograph our wedding more than five years ago. We were both THRILLED with the photos and even more, with getting to share our precious day with such a kind, thoughful, aware and professional person.
He tuned into some concerns I had about being photographed and not being comfortable infront of the camera, and he managed to make me feel totally comfortable. Most of the time, I didn’t even realize he was there. When we saw the photos of the day, the views that he got of the emotions and activities that we didn’t get to see because we were so busy – wow! It was amazing.
Since our wedding, my family has hired Jack to do a few other shoots, including head shots for my mom and an all-​family portrait. We always walk away from our time with Jack feeling inspired, happy and just filled-​up with great emotions. Jack is wonderful.

Jack is my go to guy for photography projects, I have hired him for many portraits, and two weddings, mine and my daughter’s. I really enjoy working with him and love the resulting photos. I am also a patron of his Tree Spirit Project, Jack is a true artist!

I had the pleasure of working with Jack a few years ago when I needed a head shot and photos of my acupuncture clinic. Jack arrived on time in an enthusiastic mood that let me know he was ready to make me his only priority for the three hours we had set aside to work together. Professional, organized and very pleasant, he helped me relax in front of the camera so my personality really shone through in the photos that now are bringing me more and more business. I get compliments on the shots he took all the time and this reminds me of what a great choice I made in hiring him. I confidently refer friends to him for their weddings and holiday family photo shoots. I’ll happily hire him for future photos shoots and I recommend you do too. You can see his work at my site:
(almost all the images he created with a few stock shots mixed in-they’re obvious)

Want a GREAT photographer? I have used a number of them and Jack Gescheidt was my favorite. He does alot of work as a sports photo journalist so all of the photos from my wedding came out perfectly and read like a photo spread. I have had photographers come to events that will do some good portraits that you really have to pick through from a stack of no so good photos. With Jack almost all of the photos — even the all candid ones of the people joining in the celebration — came out wonderfully. It is such a gift to have the story and joy of our wedding come through in Jack’s photos — Priceless. His site is
but the site does not do justice really.
Good luck!
