We are so happy we chose Jules to photograph our very special day! He was very professional while also being extremely personable, which made us both feel very relaxed.
He gave great direction when needed, to ensure he captured us in photos that looked natural and truly captured the essence of our day and us as individuals, as well as a couple.
When we received our photos we are in awe at how absolutely beautiful they were! There were so many wonderful ones to choose from, it was difficult to pick our favorites.
Our friends and family were also very impressed and many mentioned they looked like they were straight from a magazine. WE AGREE!
Thanks so much, Jules, for everything. We appreciate you and will definitely refer you to others for their destination weddings/elopements/etc. – Laura & Chris

My wife and I hired Jules to photograph our dream wedding in Lake Como. He came highly recommended and certainly did not disappoint.
We could not have been happier with the quality and everyone who has seen them is absolutely amazed. It is not an exaggeration to say that the photos truly feel like they could be in a magazine. His eye and style are that of a true master of his craft.
He was also a pleasure to work with. We both felt at ease the whole time and it was obvious that he is truly passionate about his work. He brings an energy and personality that reflects this. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top notch wedding photographer.

For those who are thinking about having a destination wedding or elopement in Italy – please please chose Jules Bower as your professional wedding photographer!
Our big home wedding was cancelled due to COVID 19 and not wanting to plan everything all over again – my husband and I had decided to elope in Italy instead.
I first reached out to Jules via email and he responded right away. I told him what my vision was and he was quick to help us out with providing us with different options in venues and vendors. Everything went so smoothly in planning for our big day!
On our big day – Jules is someone who knows what he wants and he will 150% make sure you are getting thee best! We were literally chasing the sun making sure we got alll the shots possible!
My husband & I are very camera shy and when I got my pictures – I couldn’t be more happy with how everything turned out – our candid shots were our favorite. He was able to capture our relationship to the dot!
We were also surprised with how fast we got our pictures back 🙂 Just in time for the holidays!
If you guys are on the fence of eloping or doing a destination wedding in Italy – let me help you – just DO IT! You won’t regret working with Jules!
- We absolutely love our wedding photos taken by Jules. I love that he captures the setting really well in addition to focusing on the wedding party and guests. He was great to work with and was able to help us relax in ........Alison Fairweather
We absolutely love our wedding photos taken by Jules. I love that he captures the setting really well in addition to focusing on the wedding party and guests.
He was great to work with and was able to help us relax in front of the camera as we were not so comfortable posing! He was also able to work quickly when taking our couple shots so that we didn’t have to spend too long away from our guests.
I love that we got to keep all of our photos and he was able to send them to us just a few weeks after our wedding. Highly recommended.

While the mind-blowing skill and quality of Jules’ work speaks for itself, I think it is important to recognize what an amazing all-around process it is to work with him. He is a consummate professional from beginning to end, and his finished product is beyond incredible. The suite of pictures we received is perfectly representative of us as a couple, and I believe that is in large part because of the time he spent prior to the event getting to know us.
Since we were an international wedding, Jules was always available for video calls and emails, to ensure that he fully understood our vision, the event, and what we hoped to walk away with. He also studied our wedding site and event location to give expert artistic input and ideas around what would photograph best and at what time.
We actually moved around our ceremony, cocktails and dinner location due to his lighting suggestions, and the end result of the photography was simply breathtaking.
Jules also goes above and beyond the call of duty as a photographer; he is happy to lend a helping hand the day of the wedding and has zero pretention around what fits the job description of photographer. He is also just a relaxed, cool and smart guy.
Jules is a person you want to hangout with outside of wedding day interaction. My now husband is not exceptionally photogenic and clams up in front of cameras. Jules figured out how to make him look natural and comfortable, and that is in large part due to his personable and chill demeanor. That said, if Jules needs someone to get into or out of a shot, he smoothly makes sure it gets done – he is very capable of grabbing the attention of a large group.
Upon his recommendation, Jules also took us on a short sunset photo shoot away from our guests during the cocktail hour; it was a welcome and fun time to get away from the crowd, loosen up and get back into the moment of why we were there – to get married! These are some of my favorite photos, and we would have never taken them if not for Jules! In addition, I am sitting here typing after just getting back from my honeymoon and am in complete shock that I have already received ALL of my photos (even the edited highlights) in a few weeks time post event.
There is something truly magical about just getting home, with the wedding glow still fresh, and being able to keep it going with thousands of stellar photos that capture the entire event in a way that is even more beautiful than you remembered. I am blown away and grateful for the fast turnaround.
Finally, and most importantly, the quality of Jules’ work can’t be matched. I spent countless hours seeking out and reviewing international professional photographers, pouring through innumerable pictures.
What sets Jules apart, in my opinion, is his ability to capture not only his subjects in a relaxed and stunning manner, but also to incorporate the setting and majesty of the event all in the same photo. Every photo is a nod to not only us, but also the beautiful surroundings that we worked so hard to create for our wedding day.
When you look at our pictures, you would think that it was a team capturing everything – but it was all Jules! Also, his use and understanding of light is like no other photographer I have seen. Some of his techniques he used on the dance floor with lighting would lend you to believe that they were heavily edited, but they were originals!
That said, his photo editing skills are also top notch. He made me look like an absolute model in many photos, yet nothing looked over produced or unrealistic. He is a true genius.
There are not enough words to express how thankful I am to Jules, and I highly recommend having him capture any special event. If you don’t believe me, just look at any of his work, it stands out in a talented crowd and is breathtakingly unique.

If you have the chance to have Jules photograph your wedding, do it… Right now. We had our ceremony in Ravello, Italy in July 2022 (setting the stage, so that you fully understand how hot it was).
It was an intimate ceremony so just myself, my groom, and some family members – I did not have bridesmaids or anyone to help with other tasks. Jules was truly a Jack of all trades on this day – not only giving us great customer service by taking AMAZING photos, but also moving around clothes, furniture, accessories, giving us bug spray, and communicating with the hotel staff to ensure that our day (and photos!) went as smoothly as possible. Jules was professional, punctual, and thoughtful the entire day & evening that he was with us.
After about 15 minutes of taking photos in the extreme heat & humidity, it would have been easy to give up – but Jules was there to take photographs, so he hyped us up, gave us energy, and made us feel like we could really take beautiful photos even though we were hot, fatigued, and ready for cold beverages.
We took photos at hidden gem locations that only the eye of a legendary photographer like Jules could find. Fast forward to less than 48 hours later, Jules had already selected, edited, and sent me all the photos in an easy-to-access format. Now, the best part: The photos. They were utterly stunning and perfect.
I couldn’t imagine having any more gorgeous photos from our special day that captured our feelings, the atmosphere, and the beautiful location. We were so lucky to have found Jules and had him patiently guide us through the photography process on our special day in beautiful Italy.
