Meet Jordan

Where it all began…

My grandmother was the queen of photographers.

The kind who never went anywhere without a camera slung around her neck, who saw stories in the smallest things. I spent entire afternoons flipping through her albums.

Snapshots of birthdays,
backyard dinners,
blurry dance floors,
stolen kisses.

Each photo was a memory, carefully tucked away in print.
Her way of keeping people close,

long after the moment passed.

that’s where it started for me

I didn’t realize it right away.

I was chasing other things for a while, but that tug toward memory-making never really let go. Somewhere along the way, I found myself with a camera in hand, drawn to the wild, messy, joy-filled moments of real life.

I love the chaos, the laughter, the way people forget there’s a lens around when they’re fully present.

I love community—how connection can live in a look, a gesture, a shared joke. I want to make space for all of it. And I want you to see yourself in the pictures, not just how you look,

but how it felt.

So here I am. Collecting memories.
Yours, mine, ours.

The Imperfect Moments…

is where my art thrives

Give me the big bites of food, the crumpled napkins,

the confetti-stuffed trash cans at the end of the night. I love the dance floors where shoes come off, ties end up as headbands, and someone’s cousin is absolutely owning their moment to shine.

There’s something about the way a wedding dress collects the day—grass stains, spilled champagne, a little frosting from the cake. It’s proof that something real happened.

That people lived fully,

loved loudly,

and didn’t hold back.

The hiccups—forgotten vows, broken heels, wind that won’t cooperate—those are magic, too. They become the stories you tell over and over again, laughing harder every time.

This is where I feel most inspired. In the beautiful, chaotic, unfiltered moments. The in-between stuff that doesn’t ask to be perfect

—just honest.

That’s the good stuff. That’s what I’m here for.

My philosophy –

embrace the imperfect perspective

My Hope For You

My goal isn’t just to take pretty pictures. It’s to create something that lasts.

I want to make art. Honest, joy-filled, goosebump-giving magic. The kind of photographs you’ll frame and reframe, tuck into boxes, pull out on rainy days. I want them to grow with you. To mean something new when you’re older, or when life looks different, or when you just need to remember how it felt.

I hope you find a new favorite every time you look. And I hope these photos always bring you back to the laughter, the chaos, the quiet, the love. That’s the kind of art I want to make with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wedding invitation flat lay with brown high-heeled shoes, a wedding ring, photographs, handwritten letter, postcards, earrings, and a printed invitation on a white textured surface.

  • I never hold back a good photo! If it’s beautiful, you’re getting it. That said, I typically average around 100 images per hour. But don’t worry about the math; you’ll have plenty to relive every moment (and then some).

  • It depends! How’s the light? How’s the vibe? Honestly, it’s a terrible financial strategy but a really great artistic one. On a big, gorgeous day? I might shoot 30+ rolls. On a quieter one? Maybe 6 or 7. Film is precious, but I don’t ration the magic.

  • That’s completely up to you. I can be as involved or invisible as you need me to be. Your day isn’t about the photos—it’s about you. I’ll take a backseat where I can, step in with guidance when needed, and always make sure you feel supported.

  • Yes. I hate the trend of hating on trends.

    There’s this pressure to have a “timeless” wedding—but honestly, what does that even mean? The best part of looking through your parents’ or grandparents’ wedding albums is how timed they are. Lean into it. Let your day reflect the now. That’s what makes it unforgettable.

  • I take a very intentional approach to editing—rushing isn’t my style.

    For weddings: you’ll typically receive a preview gallery 2–3 weeks after your day (once the film comes back from the lab), and the final gallery within 6–9 weeks.

    For hourly sessions: I don’t send previews, but you’ll get your full gallery within 3 weeks.

  • Yes, always. It’s a non-negotiable in all of my wedding packages. Film is a beautiful medium, but it’s also high-risk—and having a digital backup is essential. Plus, more eyes = more angles = more memories.
