“Janet is an amazing photographer, she was so flexible and willing to make adjustments for both our engagement session and our wedding day. She has the ability to make anyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and is really professional. Our pictures came in a BEAUTIFUL case on a CD, and the pictures themselves are amazing! She made sure to capture all the important moments and details. Also, we received our fully edited pictures just weeks after our wedding. Janet’s amazing!!”

“I am a long time friend of Janet and when my big day finally came (engagement and wedding) my choice for photographer was a no brainer! I didn’t choose Janet simply because she is a wonderful friend… that was just a bonus… I picked her because she is an amazing photographer.
I absolutely loved her energy and all of my images! Both days she made us both feel so comfortable and helped us to capture really special moments. She came all the way to Santa Barbara to celebrate with us and photographed the rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception. She was nothing short of brilliant and even stepped in when needed on some of the coordinating and made our day so effortless.
I would definitely recommend Jan and I cannot wait to use her for all of our photos as our family grows! ”
Sarah, Bride
“Janet,
These are amazing! We are already so in love with them! Thanks so much for sending some our way. We were just talking yesterday about how excited we were to see some of them!!! Thanks again so much for Saturday! We really did have a great time!!!”

“Janet has a natural gift for making her subjects feel comfortable, which brings out their best in a picture. Young or old, she gets them to laugh, relax, and work the camera with ease. And most importantly, everyone has a fun time!”

“Janet is THE BEST! She offered great tips for photography locations, and was very flexible when it came to last-minute changes in plans (even the Day-Of! yikes)! Janet captured some wonderful moments from our wedding – I would highly recommend Wheeland Photography to anyone looking for a great photographer in the LA/OC area.”
Andrea, Bride
“Janet is simply amazing at her art of photography. She captured all of our wedding moments with such expertise and care. We truly appreciated all of her time, kindness and help from the small questions in the beginning to her jumping in and helping me at the wedding with my dress. We so enjoyed having her and hope to use her services again in the future.”
Lynn, Bride
“Janet is super sweet, professional, and calm….which is always a plus on the wedding day! Great to work with and amazing pictures.”
Julianne Goins, Bride
“I love Janet’s work. She did both engagements pictures and wedding shots and we couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. She has a very good eye for composition and can make her subjects seem so at ease and natural. It was a great pleasure working with Janet and I’d recommend her to all the brides out there wanting beautiful, elegant, and perfectly framed shots… I also like to comment that on my wedding day it was so easy to have a female photographer in the room with me while I was getting ready… Janet was fantastic to work with and she made me and my fiance feel at ease and comfortable on our wedding day. Thank you Janet!”
Lisa, Bride
“Hi Janet, I was so happy you posted Laura and Casey’s photos. It turned out to be the best birthday present for me, the mother of the bride. I spent hours going through the photos, marveling at your artistic and heart warming compositions. You captured the beauty of the venue, the joy of the celebration and the quirky personalities of the bride and groom. Thank you for taking the time to record all the fabulous details in such a beautiful and thoughtful way. You are the best!”
Chris, Mother of the Bride
“Janet from Wheeland photography changed my whole concept of a wedding photographer. I have been to many weddings and seen many wedding photos and never have seen anything as good as what Janet does. She was my wedding photographer for my September wedding and everything that I was looking for and wanted, she did. The pictures are incredible! I recommend Wheeland Photography to anyone that is looking for an amazing photographer. She will capture those special moments that you want to remember forever.”
Jessica, Bride
“With just 30 days to get our wedding together prior to a move out of state, we knew we wanted no one other than Wheeland Photography to shoot our wedding. Janet, along with an assistant, had been the photographer for my sister’s wedding just 3 months earlier and after seeing her in action and the beautiful images she produced, we knew she was a perfect fit for us. Crossing our fingers that she would be available, we were delighted to find out she was and had no problem with the short time frame.
This is not a complete list, but these are a few words we’d use to describe Janet…
Personable – Her warm and sweet demeanor made us, a camera shy bride and groom, relax in front her lens. She made it a point to quiet any concerns we had related to timing, arrangements, etc. We felt relaxed knowing that she had the timing and our wish list covered and we just needed to show up.
Flexible – We had to make a couple of last minute photo venue changes and Janet was very understanding and even reassuring that it would work out perfectly.
Professional – From her choice of clothing to her interactions with family and friends at the wedding during group picture time, Janet displayed true professionalism without being stiff and uptight.
Joyful – Janet’s joy for witnessing the biggest day in a couples life is so apparent. We were able to see it at not only related to our big day, but during the weddings of others we knew that she has shot for.
Sneaky (In a good way!)- Outside of the family or obligatory photo moments (like cake cutting or garter toss), Janet was like a little photo elf. We rarely noticed her snapping away, but when we got to see our pictures were amazed at how every important moment was captured.
Artistic – Janet’s eye for a good shot and the angles that she used made many of our images frame worthy. Thanks for everything, Janet!”
