Reviews of Joel Ross Photography (Event Planner)

Emma Singh

I hired Joel to take our first official family photograph as it was a pretty special moment for us. From the moment I contacted Joel he provided fabulous suggestions for attire and location, was easy to get a hold of before and after the photo session, arrived promptly for the session, he made the moment so much fun that my family had a great time during the shoot, AND the result was such a wonderful selection of pictures to choose from. Thanks Joel! We look forward to working with you during our next family photo!

We were very fortunate to have Joel shoot our wedding. The pictures are absolutely outstanding – we are so happy that we will have them to look back on. Joel is not only a creative genius but also a good guy and tons of fun. He kept us laughing and comfortable which made the day enjoyable and helped to ensure the pictures looked natural. I should add that Joel’s professionalism will put you at ease leading up to your wedding. When you have a million things to worry about it is calming to know that Joel is organized and always responds promptly to calls, texts, and emails. Give Joel a shout if you want great pictures!

We were lucky to have the talented Joel Ross as our photographer. We had so much fun taking our wedding pictures and they turned out absolutely beautiful. He was also incredibly fast and our pictures were ready within days. We would highly recommend Joel to anyone looking for a professional, passionate, enthusiastic photographer. Thanks Joel!

I don't think there is another photographer that I would even consider to shoot my wedding! I had been admiring Joel's work for years, so when I finally got engaged, I didn't think too hard about who I would hire. And it has been a wonderful experience so far! We had a great engagement session with Joel - he was so accommodating and easy to work with, really making us feel at ease with him, as if he had been a friend whom we had known for ages past. He took our ideas and personalities and used his own creativity to bring to life all that we had envisioned. You always hope you get at least a few good pictures, but we literally got more than a hundred stunning images that we would be proud to display! I can't wait for our wedding in seven weeks and I cannot wait to continue our working relationship with Joel!

I have worked in the wedding industry with Joel Ross Photograpy for years and his quality and customer service is excellent. He is a leader in his industry for a reason, Joel never disappoints.

Joel's work is outstanding! It's no wonder that he is one of the minority in Winnipeg that holds a MASTER of PHOTOGRAPHIC ARTS. I've used him for family portraits as well as my business corporate portraits, and am thrilled with the finished product. There's no question that I'd use him again. Check him out - you won't be disappointed!

We loved working with Joel as our wedding photographer! From the moment we met him he made us feel like we were friends rather than clients. He was enthusiastic and open to our ideas. He turned them into fabulous photos that were even better than anything we could have imagined. He also managed to capture our personalities perfectly. He is an extremely talented photographer. I would definitely work with him again!

Joel Ross was a delight to work with. He was wonderful with my kids and made everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. And whats more, the moments he captured from our family function were magical. I can re-live the emotion and excitement of the entire bar mitzvah by scrolling through the photos. What an amazing talent!

I have had the pleasure of working with Joel on several occasions and as a result of his professionalism and dedication to the quality product received following wedding and family photos, it was the natural choice to work with him for a professional headshot as well!

Joel Ross is unbelievable! Not only did he make my wedding amazing and memorable but he made me feel so incredibly special and so beautiful all day. When I got engaged, I knew right away who I wanted to do my wedding. I Had been following Joel's work for years and knew he was the one. After I met with him, he emailed me to let me know another bride was interested in him for my same wedding day. I almost got into a car accident. I drove down there immediately to sign my papers. He wasn't just our photographer. Through our engagement sessions and then the wedding, I felt like I had known him for years. He cared about how I looked, made sure everything was perfect, and captured the moments that I want to remember forever. He's a wonderful, kind, and outstanding individual and I can't ever thank him enough. :)

Rick and I could not be happier and more honoured to have Joel Ross as our photographer! He is absolutely amazing to work with and insanely talented! We love how Joel captured each moment beautifully. Joel's dedication and love for what he is does is extraordinary and evident in all of his work! Thank you Joel!

Joel was a professional from the moment I called him - and it was immediately apparent that his enthusiasm and understanding of our family portrait needs set him apart. Joel met the challenge of photographing a large group of people, of all ages, with a friendly 'take charge' attitude that warmed his subjects. He even had to move the setting in our home to create the feeling he wanted, and he did it quickly, with confidence in his desired final images. The photos are outstanding and captured our family perfectly. Joel Ross is a treasure, as a person and a very skilled photographer. I would use no one else.

Joel is such a ridiculously amazing photographer and I am so happy that he was our photographer for both our engagement and wedding photos. My husband and I had the best time with Joel. We don’t always love having our pictures taken but somehow Joel makes it so much fun. He did not make us feel like we needed to pose in artificial ways but was fantastic about giving us direction. Joel was also very helpful at helping us pick out locations for the photos which completely fit with our personalities and the theme of the wedding. Thanks so much Joel for helping to make our special day so much more fun! We were blown away by how beautiful the pictures turned out and will cherish the pictures and the memory of the experience for the rest of our lives.

Thank you so much Joel. We all had a great time during the shoot and looking through the pics. The entire process was easier than I thought it would and extremely more fun. You were professional and easy going enough to keep us all relaxed. Our personalities certainly came through in the photos. Thanks again from Mark, myself, Nicholas and Natalya. See you when baby squirmy [don't ask] arrives :)))))))))

Christy Bergen

I hate having my picture taken, so when I need cover photos for a book, I hired Joel. Not only is he the best portrait photographer in the city, I knew he would make me feel comfortable, and he did. Joel took the time needed in order to give me some amazing photos, and his turnaround time and communication have been exceptional. I would definitely hire him again--can't imagine asking anyone else. He will make you feel beautiful. I was so impressed by his excitement and enthusiasm, and the fact that he came to our initial meeting with a ton of great ideas. He is an amazing photographer, but more importantly, he is an incredible person. He goes above and beyond.

Kym Kaufmann

Joel gave us an incredible experience in his studio. Not only did he completely put us at ease and make us comfortable, he also made it so much fun! I have never felt that comfortable in front of a camera and I know that it’s his experience and expertise but also his engaging personality that makes him so easy to work with. He also made it fun and comfortable for my two-year old son who had to tag along to the shoot - that was really going above and beyond! I have viewed a few of the final shots and am extremely happy with his work. That ‘beauty dish’ really goes a long way :) I feel honoured to have been able to work with Joel and I truly loved our overall experience. Thank you Joel Ross!

Being a wedding planner, I've worked with Joel many times in the past, and every time I am not only impressed with his professional manner in the way he runs his business, but also how he can interact with his clients and their guests. He is not only one of the nicest people I know and a total blast to work with - he is also a fabulous photographer - one of the best in Winnipeg. I love working with vendors that share my same philosophy and passion for going above and beyond for our clients - and working with Joel makes it so easy. You will not regret booking Joel Ross Photography for your wedding.

Joel Ross was a pleasure to work with. It was my first experience working with a photographer. I couldn't have fallen on a greater one. He made me feel at ease immediately. We had lots of fun as he challenged photographing a beginner. Not once did he make me feel bad or inadequate. I actually felt as though I was doing ok and he was able to get what he needed. I have to say......Joel was very creative, professional, kind, funny, knowledgeable and that is why he was able to shoot the photo I needed for my real estate advertisement. Thank you Joel for being so awesome at what you do! I will definitely call you again.
