We are a proud and satisfied Jayson and Jo Anne Arquiza Photography client! Being an overseas, Singapore based couple it was difficult for us to select and book our photographer of choice. We did weeks of research, watching endless slideshows and comparing styles of different photographers. Upon hearing of the Bridal Caravan SG 2016 last August, we were so happy to find that one of the best recommended photographers through a common friend was coming to Singapore! We approached Jayson and Jo Anne’s booth and quickly felt at ease with them. We clicked and felt their sincerity, humility and zero ego exactly everything we value. They did not hard sell themselves but joyfully showcased their sample photos and techniques in capturing wonderful moments of the ‘big day’. We didn’t hesitate booking them and was very excited to work with them, they even helped us secure our videographers. 😉
Nearing our big day, we kept in touch with them and confirmed some details. They were always online and responded to our every questions. Come our wedding day, they were one of those who came early and greeted us before the busy day started. Out of all our suppliers, we can say that Jayson and Jo Anne truly exceeded our expectations and went out of their way to make sure this was a memorable day for everyone. We kept hearing from our guests how they were amused with their energy and lively way of taking pictures, “ngiting tagumpay!” “Happy’ng happy!!” They were organized, patient, always with a smile and truly professionals. It started drizzling after the ceremony and I was starting to get worried that we wont do a pictorial in front of the church, but Jayson brilliantly escorted us to the back of the church where we only realized is another beautiful location for the photos! They didnt stop there, they maximized the time and asked if we can still continue despite the rain, of course we said Yes! We were so happy that they are sharing this special occasion with us, they gave their best judgement out of every shot, location and situation. They did not let us down.
We are a proud and satisfied client. I will sure be a repeat customer because I can trust that we will get high quality of photos. Trust us when we say that you will never regret booking them for your special event. Please take time at looking at our photos and of other clients and you will see why they are the best choice. Thanks Jayson and Jo Anne, we are beyond words to say how we appreciate the both of you. Godbless!

We first met Jayson and Jo Anne Arquiza in 2011 for Keilyn and NIkki’s wedding. Like everyone else, we instantly fell in love with the clean, crisp and vibrant photos. But what made Jayson and Jo Anne stood out for me is how they handle their clients. They know how to make the shoot comfortable and enjoyable, bring out genuine smiles and laughter, and capture it perfectly in their photos. It was no surprise that most of our friends also booked them as their wedding photographers. From Tagaytay, Bohol, Ilocos and Palawan — we see Jayson and Jo Anne in almost every wedding we went to, we have now considered them as friends.
So when it was our finally our turn to get married, they are one of the first suppliers/friends we called to save the date. Having Jayson and Jo Anne as our wedding photographer is a non-negotiable. We cannot think of anyone else better to cover our wedding day other than them. Now that that our wedding photos are out, we can’t help but get teary eyed. We felt the love from friends and family all over again from the reactions captured in the photos. As we browse through the photos and relived our wedding day, we remembered how blessed we are. As a couple, I think Jayson and Jo Anne understand how important a wedding is. They understand that each wedding is different, and that each couple is special. It is not just about capturing good photos but freezing time for two people who are about to start a new life together.
Wedding photos are truly an investment and we’re glad we invested with Jayson and Jo Anne.

The day we booked Jayson and Jo Anne Arquiza in a wedding fair will always be one of our favourite anecdotes. My would-be father-in-law had questioned the stability of their company and their relationship as husband and wife. While we never had doubts, the time we spent with them during our shoots and our wedding day itself reinforced what we already placed our trust upon.
During our pre-wedding photo session, we were very awkward photo subjects. We didn’t know how to behave in front of a camera but they have a way of getting us at ease and soon enough we found ourselves smiling – and even laughing uncontrollably – that most of our pictures showed how much of a good time we had. Despite the setbacks of an unexpected heavy downpour that day and not being allowed to shoot in a particular business establishment, no way can you tell that the resulting pictures were technically “stolen.” I guess it’s because of their innate talent of capturing the candid and the natural. Or because there’s truth to their claim that they are ninjas.
Come our wedding day, along with their gear, they brought with them their usual warmth. On a professional level, it is already expected that their timing and eye for detail are impeccable. They did not disappoint. On a more personal level, during our special day, they were more than just our photographers – they were our friends. They shared our laughter, anxiety and tears (including my father-in-law’s). Literally.
Today I don’t think anyone can question the quality of service they provide or the kind of relationship they have. My wife and I will find an excuse to renew our vows sooner than is necessary. And Jayson and Jo Anne Arquiza will still be a part of it. We won’t have it any other way.

After the all important choice of the church and the wedding day, my husband and I decided on a simple, intimate early morning ceremony with only the closest family and friends. We also decided that we will put most of our money in the two things that will last forever, the rings and the pictures. We kept our engagement a secret (only family knew and friends, we told 100 days before the wedding, even if we planned it for a year). It was difficult to go around looking for suppliers in bridal fairs because we risk running into people and blowing the secret, and frankly, the orchestrated and cinematic shots in the booths made my then fiancé and I uncomfortable. We were simple people, and we wanted the pictures to capture the moments naturally, without unnecessary drama; it was just not “us”. We also did not have a lot of pictures as a couple and were very excited to finally have professional shots done at some of our favorite places. Jayson and Joanne were “referred” by a friend whom we found out were getting married in the same church, so we casually asked who are they looking at to take their pictures. When we saw the pictures on their website, we loved how they looked spontaneous and un-rehearsed. We made an appointment to meet them at their house/office and immediately hit it off. They were a warm happy couple, simple like we were, and were going to take the pictures themselves and not have a team of strangers take them like all the other big shops. The rapport showed in all the pictures and video, they captured the best moments in our lives forever, naturally happy, un-rehearsed, in radiant, natural light, and we will forever be grateful. Until now when we look at the pictures, raw shots and video, we are still moved to tears. Maraming salamat, happy Father’s Day Jason and happy birthday, Joanne!

We tied the knot on 18 December 2007. Every moment of that fateful day was captured forever by Jayson and Jo Anne. Professionally. Magically.
Every detail, every movement, every emotion was skillfully taken in by Jason, supported by Jo Anne’s ministering hands. Each time I look at our leather-bound wedding album, I utter a silent prayer that Mark and I have entrusted to them the great responsibility of making the memory of our big day last forever.
Now, almost six years had passed, even our four-year old daughter and two-year old twin boys get to enjoy the product of their talents. My daughter even asked me once, “Mommy, was Daddy happy or sad here?” She was referring to a photo of my would-be husband at that time, while he stood at the altar, with tears on his eyes, watching me walk down the aisle. The shot was brimming with pure, raw emotions and it was captured forever!
I know this is long overdue, but to Jayson and Jo Anne, we thank you! Thank you for the excellent service, fast feedback and follow-through. We will forever be grateful for the impeccable job you’ve made to help us preserve our wedding memories for a lifetime.
Cheers to you both and your family! We pray for your continued success and more power.
