    I cannot say enough great things about Jay! He is talented, professional and just generally nice and likable individual. 

    We hired Jay to be our engagement photographer (which is well worth it) and our wedding day. 

    He was so nice and genuine...as well as professional, punctual, and helpful. Just the kind of people you want around for your wedding day. Jay was the first vendor (even before wedding planner) to arrive on our wedding day and he was all over the place (in a good way) getting great creative shots.

    We got our wedding highlight last week (about a month after the wedding) and its sooooo good! The editing job is excellent. The photos came up the way I had always imagined - but better. 

    Thanks Jay!!

    People say that you should choose your wedding photographers carefully, because photos are the only tangible thing you will keep from the day. Having been through the experience, we are so glad that we chose Jay. We will enjoy looking back at our images for many years!

    Selecting a photographer is pretty daunting with the number of online blogs and websites to go through. What stood out for us about Jay was his ability to handle almost any lighting condition. Jay really is the master of light! Both our ceremony and reception were held in a beautiful Toronto restaurant, where lighting was dark and intimate. Looking at our photos, he really captured the feel of the room, but you can see everything that's going on.

    Jay was responsive and professional by email. He was very unobtrusive during the ceremony and reception. He felt like part of the gang during the wedding party photos and portraits. He was very casual in style and was very receptive to feedback or ideas. We created a Pinterest board together to show him the pictures we'd like to have and he was very accommodating in capturing all the shots we wanted.

    Overall, we would highly recommend Jay Li Photography!

    Jay did a great job photographing our wedding and retouching the shots. He was creative, professional and worked with us to find a happy midpoint between our budget and what we wanted done. I'd recommend him to anyone.

    Jay photographed our wedding and he did an amazing job. We were stunned by the photos and how beautiful they were. Jay is

    professional and gets the job done in a quick and painless manner. Jay was very unobtrusive, almost invisible during the

    ceremony, but managed to deliver many great shots and cover many angles. We highly recommend his services for any special

    occasion.

    I was considering several other photographers to hire for our wedding based on their Weddingwire reviews and photographs from their sites but none of them "moved" me the way Jay did. I sent his link to fiancée and a couple of friends and they felt the same so we hired him and never regretted doing so.

    He is professional, creative, and passionate and really is an excellent artist. He truly knows his stuff. He understood that engaging our guests was very important to us and made sure that everyone of our 40 guests was included in a photo or two. His direction during the shots was professional and sprinkled with humor. Nearly all of our guests commented on how great he was.

    We sent a photo or two to all of our guests. Our photographs are beautiful and amazing and just wonderful.

    Jay was so easy to work with - He was open to ideas that my husband and I had and was very flexible in accommodating our timeline for the day. All of his photos are unique, beautiful and well thought out. We were married less than a day before he posted our first sneak-peak photo and couldn't be happier with how it looks - we can't wait to see more of the finished product! Jay is great... highly recommended by this picky, photo-loving bride :)

    Finding Jay is the best decision we made for our wedding. He was so easy to work with, and made us comfortable in front of

    the cameras all the time. We really enjoy the fact that Jay was able to capture all the details, no matter it is the

    flowers or the veils, or the happy smiles on everyone's face, or even the crowded dancing floor. We love Jay's album

    design as well; simple but elegant. We enjoy every minute looking through the pictures.

    If you are reading this review, you are probably looking for a photographer for your wedding. A good photographer will

    capture the emotion and create memories. Jay is exactly that. He works the crowed and take control of the event and the

    guest when needed. Having him, made our wedding day a breath. We highly recommend him for his amazing work, excellent

    communicate, and attention to details.

    Jay is AMAZING!!

    After seeing his breathtakingly beautiful photos on his website, I HAD to have him for both my engagement and wedding photos.

    First off, I have to comment on how awesome it is to have someone make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. My husband doesn't like to have his picture taken, but having Jay around guiding us on how/what to do for beautiful photos truly helped. He is very energetic, fun, and professional.

    Next, it is imperative to comment on the way Jay handles his sessions. He is not afraid to get down in the dirt/grass/etc. for that perfect shot, all while making sure his clients are happy and comfortable with their surroundings.

    After our engagement shoot, we couldn't be more excited to have him back for our wedding. He stayed with us the whole day (at an unbeatable price) capturing EVERY single little detail. This was so important to me because I stayed so busy running from guest to guest that I didn't have the time to sit back and enjoy all the little details I had worked so hard on putting together. His attitude was so positive! He was a trooper thorough the 12 hours we had him working.

    Lastly, and more importantly: the final product. His photos are ART. He truly has an eye like no one else. He takes the time to get to know the individual/couple and captures the essence of them. He genuinely listens to wants and needs of his clients. He sincerely wants to make every individual ecstatic with their photos. He gives something that is priceless: capturing images that are worth just as much as the moments themselves. This is something that you can enjoy and cherish for years to come.

    we found and talked to several photographers in the Greater Toronto Area, but ended up going with Jay because we liked his portfolio the best, and once we met him we found him to be super nice and easy to work with.

    Jay just shot our engagement photo at the Hart House this weekend and we absolutely love his work. Can't wait for him to shoot our wedding this fall
