Alejandra & Alex

From the quiet moments of getting ready, surrounded by excitement and anticipation, to the heartfelt vows exchanged in the stunning church filled with love and light this day was nothing short of extraordinary.

The celebration didn’t stop there. The reception was a whirlwind of laughter, dancing, and unforgettable memories, with Alejandra and Alex at the center of it all, radiating joy.

It’s days like this that remind me why I love what I do. Thank you, Alejandra and Alex, for letting me capture every special moment of your incredible day.

Sorry for the delay, I’ve been training for the “least active on social media” award. Apparently, you’re supposed to know the guy capturing all those unforgettable moments on your big day. So, hi! I’m Jake, the wedding photographer and videographer who’s usually found wrestling with lighting, herding groomsmen, and occasionally shedding a tear behind the camera (it’s allergies, okay?). Seven years of love stories later, I’m still here because, really, who wouldn’t want a front-row seat to all the cake, happy tears, and questionable dance moves?

After hundreds of weddings, I’ve come to realize there’s nothing quite like the mix of nerves, laughter, and genuine joy that fills a wedding day. Capturing those spontaneous moments, from quiet glances to epic dance floor moves, keeps me hooked. It’s all about the in-between moments the ones you don’t plan for that make each story feel unforgettable.

Outside of weddings, you’ll usually find me exploring the great outdoors, camping, wandering through botanical gardens, or discovering new national parks. When I’m not behind the camera or off adventuring, I’m at home with my two cats, Sagwa and Fufu, who might just think they’re the stars of the show.

So, if you’re looking for someone to capture all the little moments that make your wedding day yours from the happy tears to the epic dance floor moves I’d love to chat! Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement or a big celebration, let’s make some memories together. Drop me a message, and let’s start creating your unforgettable story!

Special thanks to for the amazing work.

Kat & Josh

Kat and Josh’s session at Mt. Charleston was like stepping into a serene wonderland where the air is crisp, the mountains tower above, and love feels even more profound surrounded by nature. The way they moved through the forest, hand in hand, laughing at inside jokes, made this session feel like a breath of fresh air.

We wandered through towering pines and found hidden nooks where the light broke through the trees just right. Kat’s smile lit up the entire scene, and the way Josh looked at her like she was the only person in the world was what every photographer dreams of capturing. There’s something about the mountains that makes everything feel both grounded and limitless at the same time kind of like their love.

Abby and Noah

Abby and Noah’s engagement session at Nellis Dunes was a beautiful blend of love and the wild desert landscape. Abby’s red dress flowed like a flame against the soft, sandy dunes, while Noah’s neutral outfit brought a serene balance to the scene.

As the sun dipped lower, casting a warm glow across the dunes, I caught a moment where Noah gently adjusted his watch, a simple but significant gesture that spoke volumes about his care and attention. The way Abby’s engagement ring sparkled in the last light of the day, nestled perfectly on her finger, was a reminder of the love they’ve committed to—radiant, timeless, and unbreakable.

Every glance between them, every subtle touch, held a world of emotion. Abby’s laugh as Noah twirled her in the sand, the way his hand rested on her back, guiding her with effortless ease. It was these small moments that told the true story of their love. My goal was to capture not just their beauty, but the depth of their connection, reflected in every detail.

Nellis Dunes provided the perfect canvas for their love story, a place where the vastness of the landscape mirrored the depth of their bond.

Charley & Jack

In my all my years capturing love stories, few places have left me as enchanted as Crescent Meadow. This particular morning, I had the pleasure of photographing Charley and Jack. Surrounded by the majestic sequoias and the lush, dew-kissed greenery of Sequoia National Park, their engagement session felt like a scene from a fairytale. The soft morning light, and the gentle breeze all came together to create truly magical moments. Charley and Jack’s connection is as timeless and natural as the beauty around them, making this session one I’ll never forget.

Mary Ashley & Jared

From the early morning light cascading through the windows of Green Valley Ranch Casino, to the sacred vows exchanged at St. Thomas More, I was filled with excitement to film Mary Ashley and Jared’s wedding day. Their journey began with the bustling energy of preparation, as Mary Ashley adorned herself in elegance, surrounded by her closest friends and family, while Jared eagerly awaited the moment he would stand beside his beloved at the altar. Their day unfolded seamlessly, each moment more beautiful than the last, with every detail meticulously crafted to perfection. Capturing the magic of Mary Ashley and Jared’s day was an absolute privilege.

Adriana & Sam

As we ventured through the winding paths and towering cliffs, I couldn’t help but marvel at the natural beauty surrounding us – a perfect reflection of their blossoming romance. With every click of the camera, I witnessed their love story unfold, capturing stolen glances and shared laughter against the backdrop of nature’s masterpiece. With each pose and candid moment, their connection radiated like the sun setting behind the crimson horizon, casting a warm glow upon their love-filled gazes.
