Testimonials


Kind words from our happy couples mean the world to us!

First thing that came to mind after we started wedding planning was the fact that we were in need of a wedding photographer. My now husband and I went to a friends wedding and we were so impressed in how their wedding photos came out and automatically new Joe was the perfect match for our special day. We wanted to capture every little moment and Joe even offered us a second photographer. Turns out, she was his wife, and that’s how we met Shellie! No words can describe these two vibrant people. Communication was 100/10, the energy was 100/10 and most of all they aren’t afraid to get down and dirty for the best angles! our cheek bones began to cramp up because we were all in laughter and smiles all day. We live in Tennessee and would recommend Joe and Shellie anywhere in the world. By far, the best photographers.

Working with Joe Molleck Photography was hands down the best experience my husband and I could have asked for in a wedding photographer. Joe and his wife Shellie were absolutely wonderful to work with. We did engagement photos 11 months before our wedding and those just made us more excited about the wedding. Joe takes his time and puts his entire heart in capturing love and life in his work. We were blown away and the results were above and beyond our expectations. Come wedding time, that bar shot through the roof! The memories of our wedding are now kept in the most delicate and precious photos thanks to Joe and Shellie. We truly feel like we gained family while working with these amazing human beings. Aside from the amazing emotional connection JMP left with us, prices are worth every cent, quality is outstanding. I completely recommend Joe Molleck Photography!!

Joe and Shellie shot our wedding in October of 2022 at Destihl in Normal, Illinois. Knowing them personally for years and seeing their work, they were our first choice for our engagement and wedding photos. We knew the photos would be good but they were so much better than we expected! Joe and Shellie exceeded every expectation we had for our engagement and wedding photos! They were so easy to work with and made it so much fun during the entire process! The length they went to to get the perfect photo was outstanding! They made the best out of everything and made us feel like superstars! Joe and Shellie captured everything perfectly! They kept us updated throughout the entire planning process which was a massive help. We love them both dearly and are constantly recommending them to anyone who are in need of photographers! 
All we can say is thank you for reflecting all the joy and love and fun we shared on our wedding day, and capturing it all for us, to enjoy for the rest of our lives!

"In our search for a wedding photographer, Joe came recommended to us by a few different people, and once we saw his work, we were hooked. We were looking for a candid-style wedding photographer with a relaxed style that’s both modern and timeless. Joe’s vibe fit exactly with what we were looking for. He had so many ideas and suggestions. He even worked my husband’s ‘64 Impala into our pictures seamlessly. Joe’s eye for detail is amazing, and beyond his technical expertise, he is awesome to work with. On our wedding day, he knew when to blend into the background and when to assert himself to get the best pictures. We completely trusted him and could not be happier with how both our engagement and wedding day pictures turned out. Our entire experience, from the first meeting to receiving our final wedding day photos, was fantastic. We would absolutely recommend Joe to anyone."
