"I've been an artist my entire life. my fascination for things that drive humanity, primarily our behavior, has fueled my passion for the art of storytelling. Honestly, i have a fascination with humanity but mainly because of how unpredictable we can be and how understanding that everyone comes from a unique cumulation of life experiences is what makes us extraordinary. documenting those differences in all chapters of life is what i've been doing for the past 16 years professionally and I'd love the opportunity to work with you."

To say Jared and his team are amazing is an understatement. He captured how beautiful, fun and perfect our wedding day was from beginning to end. Jared was so easy to work with and it felt good seeing how excited he got taking photos. You can really tell he loves his job and cares about the people he is working with. We cared about our wedding photos more than anything and I am SO happy with how they turned out because now I can relive the best day ever by just looking at them. If I could give 100 stars I would. Thank you so much Jared!
WE HAD A GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH JARED AND THE REST OF HIS TEAM! THEY WERE VERY GRACIOUS WITH ALL OF THE PHOTOS WE WANTED TO TAKE AND WERE WILLING TO BE ADVENTUROUS WITH US! THEY PROVIDED GREAT SERVICE AND ALWAYS KEPT US INFORMED ON THE PROGRESS OF OUR PICTURES! WE LOVE OUR ENGAGEMENT PICTURES AND WEDDING PICTURES!
JARED DID AN AMAZING JOB WITH THE PHOTOGRAPHY AS WELL AS ASSISTING US WITH SO MANY OTHER THINGS. NOT ONLY DID HE ASSIST IN LOCATING OTHER VENDERS, BUT ASSISTED IN ORCHESTRATING THINGS THE DAY OF THE WEDDING AND MADE THINGS SMOOTHER. THE PHOTOS WERE AMAZING AND WE COULDN'T BE HAPPIER. JARED CAPTURED OUR DAY BETTER THAN WE EXPECTED!! WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE.
JARED SAVED OUR WEDDING AFTER A LAST MINUTE CANCELLATION LEFT US WITHOUT A PHOTOGRAPHER. JARED WAS ABLE TO SLIP US IN FOR A QUICK TWO HOUR PHOTO SESSION THE MORNING OF OUR WEDDING THAT TURNED OUT INCREDIBLY WELL. JARED HAD GREAT BALANCE OF TRADITIONAL AND CREATIVE PHOTO IDEAS AND USED ALOT OF THE SURROUNDING BEAUTY TO MAKE TRULY EXCEPTIONAL WEDDING PHOTOS. JARED ALSO HAD JUST A GREAT PERSONALITY AND WAS VERY OPEN TO OUR INPUT AS WELL. HE IMMEDIATELY PUT BOTH MY WIFE AND I AT EASE AND WAS VERY RESPONSIVE TO OUR WISHES WHILE PROVIDING GREAT INPUT FOR EACH LOCATION. JUST A GREAT OVERALL EXPERIENCE AND THE FINISHED PRODUCTS LOOK AMAZING. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND.
JARED WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! !! WE COULDN'T HAVE HAD A BETTER PHOTOGRAPHER FOR OUR SPECIAL EVENT! JARED WAS SUPER FRIENDLY YET VERY PROFESSIONAL. HE BLENDED RIGHT IN AND HALF THE TIME WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HE WAS THERE! BOTH OUR ENGAGEMENT AND WEDDING PHOTOS TURNED OUT SO BEAUTIFULLY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLIMENTED THEM BY SAYING THEY COULD BE IN A MAGAZINE! I RECOMMEND JARED HOFFPAUIR PHOTOGRAPHY 100%!!
JARED AND JOANNA WERE INCREDIBLE, I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN! WE HEARD ABOUT THEM THROUGH A COWORKER OF MINE AND KNEW THEY WERE FROM SPRINGFIELD, MO (WE WERE GETTING MARRIED IN KC). I E-MAILED HIM ABOUT POSSIBLY DOING OUR WEDDING AND HE REPLIED IMMEDIATELY. THEY WERE ABLE TO DO EXACTLY WHAT WE WANTED WITHIN OUR BUDGET! THEY TRAVELED TO KC 3 MONTHS BEFORE OUR WEDDING AND TOOK OUR BEAUTIFUL ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS AND THEN WERE HERE WITH US ALL DAY ON OUR WEDDING DAY. THEY GOT RIGHT TO WORK WHEN THEY ARRIVED AT MY APARTMENT TO TAKE PHOTOS OF US GIRLS GETTING READY. THEY WERE EXTREMELY PERSONABLE AND PROFESSIONAL! THEY ALSO DID AN INCREDIBLE JOB BLENDING IN DURING OUR CEREMONY AND OUR RECEPTION! I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE NEEDING PHOTOGRAPHS! THEY'RE INCREDIBLE PEOPLE WITH AMAZING TALENT!
WE CANNOT SAY ENOUGH WONDERFUL THINGS ABOUT J DESIGN STUDIOS!! JARED AND JOANNA ARE SIMPLY AMAZING! OUR PICTURES LITERALLY TAKE OUR BREATH AWAY AND WE LOVE EVERY SINGLE ONE! THEY CAPTURED EVERY DETAIL AND EMOTION THROUGHOUT OUR MAGICAL DAY AND TRULY TOLD OUR STORY THAT WE WILL NOW BE ABLE TO RELIVE FOR A LIFETIME THROUGH THOSE INCREDIBLE PICTURES. THEY BOTH WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND.... NOT ONLY BEING AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHERS THAT MADE EVERYONE FEEL RELAXED AND COMFORTABLE, BUT THEY ALSO DID WHATEVER NEEDED TO BE DONE THROUGHOUT THE DAY TO MAKE IT RUN SMOOTHLY! FROM HELPING WITH MY DRESS TO TOUCHING UP MY HAIR, THEY WERE ON IT!! THEY TRULY CARE ABOUT THEIR CLIENTS AND STRIVE TO HELP GIVE THEM THE WEDDING OF THEIR DREAMS. OUR DAY WAS BETTER THAN WE COULD HAVE EVER IMAGINED AND WE ARE SO GRATEFUL THAT THE HOFFPAUIRS HELPED MAKE THAT SOMETHING THAT WE WILL CHERISH FOREVER!
We loved working with Jared and Nicole for our wedding photos and video. They were very thorough, personable, and professional. Our photos and video turned out wonderfully and exceeded any expectations we had. We love looking back and reliving all of the moments they captured with our closest friends and family. Jared also included an engagement session that was just as great! We would recommend his business over and over again.
Hire him!!! Jared is the absolute best photographer around. With our wedding package we got an engagement session as well and he knocked it out of the park with both. He’s so good we hired him for our family Christmas photos and will continue to hire him for any other special occasion we want professionally photographed. His pictures are amazing, super professional, easy to work with and you don’t have to take out a loan to pay for it. I 100% highly recommend hiring him for your wedding!
As the bride I was extremely nervous and was just wanting everything to go so well especially the photos! During the photos Jared was very great with working around the weather, cause at one point it did rain. But even then he made it work which made me feel real good during and after the photos :) Jared is very open to suggestions during the photos and he always catches the right moment for a photo which I thought was incredible! He did a amazing job and I'm super thankful for the job he did. My husband and I are extremely pleased with the photos he took!
Jared captured everything we wanted for our day and beyond! He really cares about making the couple the top priority! I love all the pictures he has taken!!
