Cameron & Sheree’s Daydream Island Wedding Photography by Jo Hodge, Johanna H Studios
“Our wedding on Daydream Island was everything we imagined and more, so so beautiful! Jo was outstanding, we honestly couldn’t fault her, as she made us feel like we were the only couple ever to be married!! From the very first email and phone conversation right through to the moment we left the island (several days after our ceremony) it all went so smoothly and we couldn’t have asked for anything more, the assistance and support we received from Jo was extraordinary. We adored the pre-wedding shoot and travel endured to shoot our special day over on the island- so thanks Jo, we can’t wait to preview the album!” Cam & Sheree
Neal and Nikki’s Destination Wedding Photography by Jo Hodge, Johanna H Studios
“Jo combines professionalism with her fun, easy going nature which is infectious to those in front of her camera. People automatically relax when Jo is around which leads to exceptional photography. Having been exposed to Jo’s skills years earlier, there was no question about who we would have as our wedding photographer, she is the only photographer that my husband has ever felt comfortable in front of the camera with. Her adaptability to travel to unknown locations meant that she had no problem when told we were planning to marry in the East Kimberley region of Western Australia. Traditionally both my husband & our best man are shy farmers that would rather not have to pose as models but the bridal party had a wonderful time on our wedding day taking many photos at numerous locations & managed to sustain their enthusiasm (with the help of Jo’s antics) over a 6 hr period. Being biased of course, we think the end product of our wedding photography is awesome. We are thrilled that we have a collection of stunning yet casual photographs that truly capture the true essence of us as a couple & our special day. The feedback from family & friends has been exceptional with many commenting that they are the best selection of wedding photography they have ever seen.” Neal & Nikki

“I just wanted to say a massive thank you for your involvement in our special day, you did a fantastic job and you were so professional yet relaxed the entire day.

“You only have to take one glimpse of our amazing wedding photos to see that Jo is a truly talented and creative photographer. I loved Jo’s work as soon as I saw it on her website. She was happy only too happy to travel from Brisbane for our wedding and took on all our unique ideas with great enthusiasm. As a result we have the most incredible wedding album to show off to all our friends and family…….. And to pass on to our children and grandchildren one day.” Dan & Majella
Tony & Carley’s Brisbane Wedding Photography by Jo Hodge, Johanna H Studios
“It is hard to put into words what it was like to have Johanna H Studios as our wedding photographer. It is a big decision but we loved Jo’s website, her photos were different to everyone’s, they had an element of something different to other websites we saw. Working with Jo on our wedding day was so comfortable, just like having another mate along for the ride. Organising a Brisbane wedding from afar, we were a little overwhelmed by the elements that went into organising a photographer; Jo went out of her way to make the whole process easy and with our shared regional connections meant Jo was a natural choice. The photos were amazing – we have so many to choose from, even in fading light, Jo was able to capture some truly memorable shots. Many thanks, Jo, for being part of our big day”. Tony & Carley

We now have a fantastic mixture of traditional, candid and very creative photos and are so proud to show off them off to our friends and family.” Dayne & Shelley

“From the moment we saw Jo’s work we knew we had found our wedding photographer – it was stylish, elegant and dynamic. She made it feel so easy and natural to get the best out of our wedding party at every location, that sometimes we forgot we were being photographed. From the posed stances to us laughing amongst each other, Jo managed to capture the excitement of our day. Thank you Jo for making every moment of our wedding come back to life whenever we sit down and go through our amazing wedding album.” Mitchell & Teneille
Ben & Sarah’s Brisbane Wedding Photography, by Jo Hodge, Johanna H Studios
“The memories of our wonderful day will always be remembered and rembraced because of your gorgeous photos. I can’t stop looking at my album and wall mounts. You were so helpful and understanding in knowing what sort of style I liked without having to explain it. I can not express how amazing our album turned out, it’s absolutly amazing and so special. It can be passed down to our children and then on to their children. Thank you for making our day remembered like it was yesterday for the rest of our lives. It means so much to us.” Ben & Sarah
Darren & Steph’s Wedding Photography Brisbane, Queensland by Jo Hodge, Johanna H Studios
“We were nervous about finding someone who could take great photos within our budget. But from seeing the galleries on Johanna H Studio’s website, and our chats with her leading up to the wedding day, we were relieved to find we’d found a photographer who shared our ideas on what we wanted our photos to look like and had a great range of packages within our budget. Jo’s wedding photography has really captured just how much fun our wedding day was and how relaxed she made us and our guests feel. We loved that Jo was willing to listen to our suggestions and incorporate them into the shots. She really captured the joy and happiness in our day and it was a pleasure to have her share it with us. Our photos are a fantastic memento, but they are also a great way to remember how much fun we had having them taken!” Darren & Steph
Brisbane Commercial Photography, Carmel O’Keefe, Designer, Little Blessings Christening Couture by Jo Hodge, Johanna H Studios
“I wasn’t exactly sure what I wanted but I needed a point of difference – creative, eclectic, and inspiring with a dash of bravery. This was the brief I presented to Johanna H Studios. Thank you Jo for acknowledging my personal definition and producing gorgeous photos for my new business website; photos which would confidently earn their place in any gallery of modern art.” Carmel O’Keefe
Johnny & Johanna’s Wedding Photography Brampton Island and The Whitsundays by Jo Hodge, Johanna H Studios
“It was an absolute pleasure to us that we were able to share our plans and ideas with Jo Hodge. Through the months leading up to the wedding Jo was invaluable. Jo treated our schedule (and secret planning) as if they were her own. She mentored us with her experiences about various trappings in planning a wedding. Jo Hodge was fundamental in getting a nervous couple through stressful moments in her calmly encouraging manner never pushing herself on us. She was already so valuable yet she still hadn’t even opened her camera case to this point. Fast forward to the moment Jo arrived to meet us both the morning of our wedding. Jo seems to have an ability to engage a person and sum up immediately how to tell their story and showcase their spirit. Jo is not just a great photographer; she is a natural visual artist, a master of spatial arrangement and a warm caring person, going way beyond her duties. She floats around a photo shoot quickly and effortlessly all the while her mind in ticking over quicker than a New York cab metre. We felt like we hadn’t hired a wedding photographer, but a close and caring friend.” Johnny & Joh
Larry & Elaine’s Mackay Wedding Photography, Mackay and The Whitsundays Islands by Jo Hodge, Johanna H Studios
“We still can’t believe our luck in getting Jo Hodge to take our wedding photos. We never imagined a photographer could be so natural, creative, funny, intimate and professional. “Jo is all of these things without effort and made us relax instantly. We laughed and laughed throughout the whole ceremony and this very happy day is perfectly captured in every single photo Jo has taken. NOBODY has photos like us, they are unique to us and our day. Everybody comments on them and to us they are a constant reminder of how happy we are. We eloped and didn’t tell a soul and Jo’s special talent for capturing the mood shines throughout our whole album. We just love them, thanks Jo, you made a couple of old love birds very happy.” Larry & Elaine
