Hi, I’m so glad you’re here. I’ve spent the last 9 years turning my love of photography into a full-time passion, and I truly enjoy capturing moments that feel real, joyful, and uniquely you.
I specialize in wedding and event photography, engagements, portraits, family and lifestyle sessions, newborn/baby, commercial, food, and product photography. With a small two-person team, you get personal attention, fast turnaround on edited photos, and careful attention to detail.
Clients often tell me they appreciate how comfortable and relaxed they feel during sessions, and how their photos reflect their true personalities. I take time to understand your wants and needs, and I work hard to go above and beyond your expectations.
If you’d like to learn more, take a look through my reviews and reach out so we can start planning your session.

Where to begin… First just want to say God is good and Jordan is an answered prayer. I had a vision for my proposal and wanted every detail to go off without a hitch. With that being an important part was hiring someone to capture that with excellence. Jordan went above and beyond. I shared what I had in mind and he gave constructive feedback with confidence and expertise. After seeing his work I knew he was talented but what got me was the passion he has to make these special moments just that much sweeter
Jordan is a 10/10 recommendation, if you’re looking for someone this is your guy. Not only does his work speak for itself but his heart to deliver quality speaks louder Responsive, empathetic, professional, and all-around just a great guy. He made this process not only easy but fun
Thank you so much, Jordan and God bless you!

The time Mae and I had with Jordan was a once in a lifetime experience. From playing actor to capturing the moment of the proposal. He made the whole time fun and super comfortable to take photos. If anyone is thinking of proposing, or just wants spectacular photos, call Jordan. Thank you again.

Working with JD was an absolute pleasure all the way around. He made us feel comfortable right from the start and was able to capture those authentic moments in a professional manner, making those photos true instead of staged. He's personable, on time, and someone I would absolutely book with again!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I give 10% discount for recurring business. I also give referral bonuses if I’m hired. Make sure you tell them to use your name for the referral :)
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to have a conversation with the client so I know how comfortable they are in front of the camera or the scope of the project. Learn expectations and what they need from the session. If they have certain preferences it’s best to get these upfront so I can be more prepared going into the shoot.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
Really started when my son was born. My wife wanted professional photos almost monthly and was getting expensive so I had technical background with programs and a creative edge for photos with my phone so decided to get my first DSLR. My wife gets professional pictures whenever she wants now.
