Testimonials
James is AMAZING! The entire portraiture experience was wonderful, from the first consult to the shoot, to the the delivery of the final images. I was nervous about getting my photos taken, but James made me feel comfortable immediately. He inspired me to enjoy the process and worked in partnership with me to capture the images I needed for personal and professional purposes. Highly recommend.

James Kern is one of the best photographers I came across in Philly. From our consultation until photo session day he made me feel at ease. I’m not a naturally photogenic person, but he set the whole welcoming vibe with my favorite music. His hospitality was amazing. For the quality the price was reasonable. I recommend him to anyone.
