The JPP Experience
Timeless, Not Trendy.
Real life is beautiful…so why mess with it?
Imaginative, Effortless & Authentic
My work is rooted in artistry, but at its core, it’s really about connection — the kind that’s real, relaxed, and deeply felt. I’m not interested in perfect poses or forced smiles. I’m drawn to the quiet glances, the laughter that sneaks up on you, the in-between moments that say everything without trying. My approach is gentle, intuitive, and always centered on letting you be fully yourselves.
“Ever since seeing the photos from a friend’s wedding, we knew we wanted to have Jake.
He was the first vendor we hired!”

What To Expect On Your Wedding Day
CALM
Throughout the day, I do my best to bring a calm, grounded presence into the space. Weddings can be full of emotion — beautiful and overwhelming all at once — and I’ve learned how much it matters to have someone nearby who helps you breathe a little deeper, slow down, and stay in the moment. I’m there not just to document your day, but to help create an environment where you feel supported and completely free to be yourselves
EXPERIENCE
With nearly 20 years in the wedding world, I’ve seen just about everything — and that experience has taught me how to stay present, adaptable, and ready for anything. Whether it’s shifting timelines, sudden weather changes, or just the natural unpredictability of a wedding day, I know how to roll with it, adjust quickly, and keep things moving without ever making it feel rushed or chaotic.
SKILL
That calm energy isn’t just a vibe — it’s something I’ve spent years cultivating. I’ve learned how to read a room, anticipate moments before they happen, and step in (or back) at just the right time. I work quickly and intuitively, always with a creative eye, so the photos stay true to your story and the energy of the day. No matter what’s happening behind the scenes, my goal is to create space for you to feel fully present — because that’s when the most meaningful, beautiful moments unfold.
“From the moment we met Jake, we knew we wanted him to document the most important day of our lives.
Jake is extremely professional, beyond friendly, crazy talented, and an all around awesome guy. He made us feel super comfortable throughout the entire process and was the perfect person to capture photos of us. He was the absolute best!”
-Eileen & Kevin
Every Couple Receives
Customization
No two weddings are alike—and your coverage should feel just as considered. My collections are fully customizable, allowing us to design photography that reflects your day, your priorities, and your vision. Nothing is templated. Everything is intentional.
Collaboration
Your voice matters—but you’re never left to figure it out alone. I collaborate closely with you while leading with experience, intuition, and calm direction. When it’s time to guide, I guide. When it’s time to step back, I disappear. The result is imagery that feels effortless, refined, and unmistakably you.
Assistance
An extraordinary wedding day doesn’t happen by accident. I help craft a seamless, photography-forward timeline that protects your experience while elevating every moment. From the quiet anticipation to the final celebration, I keep the day flowing beautifully—so all you have to do is be present.
Effortless.
Elevated.
Seamless.
The Process
1. Inquire & Connect
After your inquiry, we’ll schedule a discovery call to connect, align on your vision, and ensure the experience feels right on both sides. This is a relaxed, intentional conversation where you can share what matters most and ask thoughtful questions. Once you’re ready to move forward, your date is officially reserved with a signed contract and retainer.
2. Curated Planning
From designing your engagement session to collaborating on wedding-day details and flow, every step is approached with care. We’ll reconnect 2–3 months before the wedding to refine timelines, priorities, and logistics — ensuring everything feels effortless, aligned, and thoughtfully planned well before the day arrives.
3. Document & Delivery
On your wedding day, I work with quiet confidence — documenting moments as they unfold while offering clear guidance when needed. Shortly after the celebration, you’ll receive a curated sneak peek of images, followed by a fully edited gallery that captures your day with intention, artistry, and a timeless yet modern perspective.
