About this vendor
I am an editorial film wedding photographer. I love style and have an acute eye for detail and candid moments, I love capturing the raw emotions and genuine connections that make weddings truly unforgettable.
My journey in photography began with film. This foundation in the art of film photography adds a distinct touch to my work, bringing depth, warmth, and a touch of nostalgia. Though I am equally proficient in modern digital photography, I leverage cutting-edge technology to push the boundaries of creative expression. By carefully blending the best of both worlds, I deliver a captivating collection of images that showcases the essence of your love story in its truest form.
Beyond technical knowledge, I am an easygoing and collaborative professional who believes in the power of building genuine connections with my clients. I want to take the time to understand your unique vision, listening intently to your stories and dreams, to ensure that every image resonates with your individuality.
Lets work together!

d by reception at the Parkers’ Lighthouse restaurant. With any event planning comes some level of stress and Jake took care of this piece of the event, took amazing pictures without having to say too much. I loved all the pictures and could instantly share with our family and friends. I feel like sometimes you have to spend so much time filtering out what you want and can share. I didn’t really have to do this.
Thanks Jake for making this special day for our daughter even more special. We will treasure these captured memories for a lifetime!

He was super great with reaching out beforehand and giving us different ideas for locations/being flexible with us (he even came to in n out after to take a couple of pictures!), as well as helping us get comfortable in front of the camera. My face hurt from smiling so much after we had gotten our photos back, they were everything we could’ve asked for and we received so many compliments from our friends and family. I honestly couldn’t ask for better photos or service, I 100% recommend!
