Creative & Photojournalistic Wedding Photography
My name is Jimmy Ho, and I'm a photographer who specializes in creative portraits and photojournalistic wedding photography. A wedding is one of life's greatest events and is a key moment in every family history. I take great care and detail to document weddings so that my images tell the unique story of each wedding that can be enjoyed for generations.
This attention to detail can be seen in the fact that I treat each individual image with the utmost care - one by one. Every image from a wedding is one of a kind, and I believe each one deserves the best artistry I can provide both while photographing and afterwards during post production. To this end, I create stunning, emotion-filled, meaningful and fresh images for my clients.
I first became interested in photography nearly two decades ago when my father taught me how to use his manual-focus film camera and I have been fascinated with the art of photography ever since. My background in photography includes experience ranging from local and sporting event coverage to newspaper reportage to developing images in a professional photographic lab. I am also a member of Professional Photographers of America. While I enjoy all types of photography, I prefer wedding photography for the challenge of creating artistic images from the spontaneous and fleeting moments typical of weddings.
My studio is based in Gainesville, Florida where I reside with my loving wife and our daughter. My wife, April, is also my business partner, album designer, and handles product fulfillment. I am available for weddings throughout Florida and Georgia and the rest of the southeast. The images on this blog are highlights from recent weddings and other photographic work. I hope you enjoy the images and invite you to check back often for updates.
Armida & Eric are engaged! These two lovebirds were absolutely fun to work with, not to mention totally in love. Their wedding is next month, and we decided to do a two-part E session.
Being gator fans, we started out on the UF campus for some portraits.
We then headed down to the Hippodrome area for some downtown portraits.
Danielle and Erick tied the knot this past weekend!! They had an absolutely gorgeous wedding at St. Simons Island and had me come along to photograph their day.
Ceremony: Lovely Lane Chapel
Reception: A.W. Jones Heritage Center
Caterer: Tasteful Temptations
Here are some highlights from their day:
We started off at the Lovely Lane Chapel to get some pictures of Erick and the guys.
Erick is a professional golfer. Out came the clubs for some photos.
Danielle looking absolutely gorgeous at the V.I.P. Suite.

Danielle and Erick’s first dance
An ice bar! The table, ice cream bowl, and legs are completely made out of ice. Cool factor is definitely a “10″ here.
Brian and Laura at Tasteful Temptations were an absolute joy to work with - the food was some of the best I’ve had.
We headed out to catch the sunset for some absolutely gorgeous portraits.
- Jimmy you are amazing. I have shown these to everyone and haven't told you how wonderful they really are. These are beautiful. Thank you for capturing our wedding day. These are magazine quality and we love them. I can't wait to see all of them. Any thoughts on when that will be, because now I am anxious. I will be happy to recommend you to anyone. Thanks again!

- Mr Ho, -As a working small town newspaper photojournalist for 34 years, I know how difficult it is to capture even ONE special moment at an event. -Yet, in your sampling of photos on your blog of Danielle's and Erick's wedding you show us one beautiful moment after another. Craftsman? Artist? Wedding photographer extraordinaire? You are certainly all of these and more. -We are delighted with your photos of the newly-married Arbes' day. Others who we've invited to visit your blog site like the photos as well. Gary Smith (Danielle's father)December 16, 2008 - 11:30 am
