Mindful Love, Timelessly captured

When you find the right photography team for you- it might sound funny- but there’s no need to think for one second about photos. You simply enjoy the moment- mindfully.

After having the time of your life with your partner dancing, spinning embracing, kissing or simply being together- You’ll realize that all along there we were.

We were documenting your love- and giving y’all a little guidance along the way!

Hey hey- I’m Jacob! It’s a pleasure to have you here!

I began my fulltime wedding career in 2020 and have loved every moment I’ve spent capturing couple’s and families having the time of their lives! Since my start in photography, with the help of some exceptional mentors and coaches- I learned to strike a balance between capturing life as it unfolds AND guiding my clients to create stunning visuals and a heartfelt experience.

True to life, naturally lit photos

When we edit its our highest aim to present our clients and the scenes as they were in the moment. So though we love varying our techniques as new fun trends become popular, our editing honors the original colors while adding a signature, unique “pop” to the photos.

What does “true to life” edits mean to us? In general, there are “light and airy” and “dark and moody” photos and a whole bunch of trendy color saturations as well. We edit our photos essentially in the most balanced, true to life way- neither dramatically dark, nor the heaven-like brightness of light and airy photos.
