Reviews of Justine Johnson Photography (Photo Studio)

Jennifer Tierney

We've hired Justine to take photographs of our family for the past 4 years. Her effervescent personality makes our brief time with her every year make her feel more like family than a service industry professional. The results of our photoshoots cover our walls and our family and friends rave about how beautiful they are. We love Justine and are so glad to have found her!

literally the greatest. HIRE JUSTINE!

Justine Johnson photographed our wedding in September 2011. We also had our engagement photos with her too. Justine is a true professional with a laidback style. Our photos were gorgeous which is no small feat given I’m not photogenic and blink...a lot. She is a like a ninja. Hardly noticed that night but had pictures of everything! I’ve attended plenty of weddings where the photographer is obtrusive. We would recommend (actually we have) Justine to anyone getting married. She is amazing to work with and you will not be disappointed! Lisa & Chris Rizzo

Justine took the bright and beautiful photos we had been hoping for!

Justine is professional, personable and fun! I have had the pleasure of working with Justine on a couple of occasions and she has consistently delivers. First, she did a phenomenal job taking head shots for the Junior League's board of directors. She managed to capture our personalities perfectly! Justine recently took our family photos (our dog included!). We were so pleased with the photos and plan to use them for our Christmas card this year. I highly recommend Justine and her work.

Justine has photographed our wedding and engagement session, and we have another session set up with her for this fall. I chose Justine for our wedding because I loved the look of her photos; the style, bright colors, everyone looks so happy, and the candids (my favorite!). All of our photos have turned out amazing, and we're so happy we went with Justine as our wedding photographer. In addition to the quality of the photos, Justine is great to work with. She responds to emails quickly, she helped us find a perfect spot for engagement photos, and she (and her assistant) were professional and fun to work with at the wedding. We had family and guests commenting on how great she was at the wedding before anyone even saw any of the photos. We're looking forward to our session this fall and will continue to use Justine for future sessions as well!

Justine took photos at my sister & brother-in-law's wedding back in 2011. Her creativity and ability to notice special candid shots make looking back on the photos years later all the more appreciated.

Justine is extremely personable and talented! We’ve hired Justine to photograph us for our wedding and recently for family photos. She is diverse and easily adapts to all styles of photography while staying true to herself. We would recommend her to anyone and everyone!

Justine is an amazing photographer and a personality to match. She is incredibly professional, organized, creative and fun. My now-husband and I felt instantly comfortable with her and loved her positive energy. Her photos came out perfect and she handled our big, loud and unorganized families with a calm, low-key charm. Thank you Justine for capturing a magical day with equally magical pictures!

Jessica Sajecki

Justine was such a pleasure to work with! We are so happy with her work and our session was a great way to spend a summer afternoon. I have recommended Justine to all of my friends and family for future portrait and family sessions and I now extend that recommendation to you! I promise she will not disappoint!

Justine is THE photographer for our family! We’ve worked with Justine three times and have received beautiful pictures with every shoot. I’ve had a history other photographers that produced lovely images but they also preserved the memories of anxiety and awkward posing. Justine puts everyone at ease and she is just really fun to hang out with. She captures real candid moments and I can look back on the photos and feel the joy! We found Justine because she offers free shoots for terminally-ill pets. She gave us priceless photos that showcased our pups’ personalities and the LOVE. I can’t wait for our next session this fall!

Justine did our engagement and wedding photography in California. I can not recommend her more. Her work is beautiful, she is professional, and she is an awesome person to spend time with. Her prices are very affordable, especially given the amazing photographs you receive at the end. Justine traveled all the way from Maine to the San Francisco Bay Area to do our photography. She made the whole process so easy, and was super helpful and easy going when I was a busy distracted bride. I was worried about us feeling comfortable in front of the camera, but Justine is such an awesome person that it’s just like hanging out with an old friend which made the whole process so fun and comfortable. She chose awesome background spaces for our photos and really captured the feel of our wedding. She also was so professional and dealt with the fact that our guests were swarming her so professionally—I think i was more stressed by their behavior than she was! I wish I was getting married all over again just so I could hire her again!!! We will absolutely hire her again for any photography we need in the future.

Rachel Simpson

Justine photographed our 2012 elopement and also acted as one of our witnesses. She is incredible professionally and her photos are amazing. She is easy to work with and communicate with. We have since booked her services three more times on her trips to Ohio where we live. I highly recommend hiring her as your photographer for any occasion!

Justine is warm, respectful, professional, and talented. She put me at ease during a boudoir shoot she generously organized, something I was excited about yet super anxious to try. She captures people’s real humanity and unique quirks, and makes sure to do so in a way that authetically and also flatteringly represents her subjects’ qualities and emotions. She has creative and fun visions and ideas, and is absolutely someone I’d feel comfortable and thrilled to work with again!

Jeff Larson

Justine did a fabulous job on our family portrait session. She was able to capture the entire family plus group and candid small group/individual photos equally well. We were very happy with all our photos. We highly recommend her.

Molly Saylor

My fiance and I had a wonderful experience working with Justine for our engagement shoot! We opted to have it in downtown Portland and she knew several great spots that I wouldn't have even thought about before. She has a great eye for capturing candid shots and we are so happy with our photos!

Benjamin Dutil

Justine performed my family portrait shoot. We had a blast and walked away with an album full of great photos and lasting memories for generations to come. Kind, easy-going, and an expert in her field, I highly recommend booking your next photo shoot with Justine!

Rosemary Cameron

What an amazing experience! Justine photographed my wedding this September. This was my first time having my photo professionally taken and I was really nervous: I didn't know how to stand or pose or act. But Justine helped my husband and I feel so at ease. We just got our pictures back and they are really incredible. Not only did Justine do a great job of capturing the staged shots, but she also photographed some really nice, tender, natural moments. She has a great eye and is incredibly professional. I will definitely look to work with her again for future events.

Tristan Plunkett

Justine was super helpful and professional with our photo shoot. Not being a local, she gave us great tips and suggestions for photogenic spots around Portland and also provided pictures of other shoots she had at those locations which helped us that much more. She was responsive and very flexible. We had originally scheduled for the afternoon one day, but had to reschedule due to weather. Justine had no problem moving up the shoot. She was very quick in getting us back the teasers and photos and they looked fantastic. Highly recommend Justine for your photography needs!

Michael Sountis

Justine got terrific shots of our wedding and was amazing to work with. Highly recommend!

Stephanie Clarke

Justine is the real deal, the full monty, the big Lebowski, the best of the best! Not only is she is a top notch photographer, she has the personality to match her skills. She photographed my wedding as well as our engagement session included in her wedding package. She rocked so much that my sister used her for her wedding, too. I recommend Justine 100%, she doesn’t disappoint

Sarah Solomon

Justine has been wonderful for all three sessions we have booked with her. She has an eye for photography whether it be family sessions, boudoir, wedding, portraits. I would highly recommend her!

Johanna Holm

My husband and I enjoyed a honeymoon shoot with Justine Johnson photography! We were honeymooning in New England from California, and a friend gifted me a mini-session to remember our snowy trip. Justine not only captured us in our giddy newlywed bliss, she served as a mini-Portland tour guide as we walked around the town looking for the perfect shots to shoot. She was personable and professional, and I'm so happy we have such fun pictures that capture us perfectly! I highly recommend Justine!

Anna Belle Murray

I had Justine take my senior pictures and I had an awesome experience! After researching different photographers, I reached out to Justine because I loved her style of photography and how she captured people in such natural and happy states. She was responsive, professional, and very talented. Although being photographed is not my favorite thing, she made me feel comfortable right away and I ended up having a great time and it was clearly shown through the photos she captured. She got my photos back to me very fast and the pricing was very reasonable with no hidden fees.

Seth Dearborn

Every step of the way, Justine was superb! She is professional, creative, talented, and fun! Justine captured moments at our wedding that I wasn't even aware were happening. Such a thrill to view our photos and re-live our wedding through her eyes. Connect with her, book her, and feel confident that Justine will capture your special day/moment perfectly! My wife and I feel fortunate that we found her amid the sea of photographers out there. Something special about Justine Johnson Photography. You will be very happy!

I've used Justine for our family pictures for the past three years. She always makes us ALL feel comfortable in front of the camera (even my picture-hating husband). She is flexible and patient with kids. Plus, her rates are totally reasonable!

Amazing Job! Justine was very professional and did an amazing job in capturing me in my studio.

Bre Kidman

Justine has a singular talent for bringing out the very best in people. When I’ve been fortunate enough to have her shoot me, I am always taken aback by the way she displays me—not the version I see in the mirror, not the best upangle selfie version, not the version other people catch in pictures, but the version of me I hope to be. She sees and captures the aspiration, the inner light, the way I dream other people would see me but have trouble seeing for myself. Hire her for special events, but also just... hire her so that you can experience what it’s like to have someone show you that you are, really and quantifiably, the most beautiful version of yourself that you can imagine. She’s magic and you deserve it.

Justine did our maternity shoot for us and it was absolutely perfect! We wanted to include our 3 year old Golden Retriever and she was super accommodating. We love that she offers the digital rights to the photos so we can print them in the future.

Katie Grant

I have had the amazing opportunity to work with Justine over the last 5 or so years and every shoot with her has been incredible! I've done family, business and boudoir style photos shoots with her and each and every one she was incredibly professional, fun and easy going. She has tons of ideas and really makes what sometimes can be an awkward situation fun and easy! I recommended her to everyone I know!

Jack Rizutko

Justine has photographed my family on 3 separate occasions, and all three have been fantastic. She's a joy to work with: Easy going, friendly and enthusiastic. She's always game to try goofy things as well as the standards, and executes both beautifully. Her ability to capture both vibrant color and personality are stunning. I recommend her highly at every opportunity.

Jenika Pouliot

I've had the pleasure of working with Justine for a photo shoot with a non profit organization I am a part of as well as being part of a wedding that she shot. She is very professional and fun to work with. On top of the experience of working with her, her photos are amazing. She has a really great eye! We're looking forward to a fall family photo shoot with her this year!
