An easeful & organized photography experience for Kalamazoo couples
My goal? For you to feel both excited and at ease on your big day, free to enjoy yourself on your big day without worrying about rounding up loose family members for the group photo or wondering if I caught the cake-cutting. In other words: I got this. You can spend more time soaking up every moment, knowing they’re being beautifully preserved for you to revisit time and time (–and time) again.

It's such a load off my mind not worrying if I'm going to have something to post. It's all done for me!

The big day is finally here! With a predetermined timeline on our side, the day will unfold with ease and joy. (And let’s just say: keeping the day moving – and not missing a moment along the way – is pretty much my thing.) All you have to do? Delight in every inch of the day and soak up the magic of having all your loved ones in one place.
About 8-10 weeks later, once you’ve had a chance to jet out for your honeymoon and/or settle in with your spouse, we’ll reconnect in person for a reveal of your wedding photos, at mi casa or at yours. We’ll pop champagne and snack on charcuterie while you get to see your wedding photos for the first time and experience it over again.
And in the midst of that ooh-ing and ahh-ing, we’ll also finalize the keepsakes you’d like to have & to hold. We’ll chat all things custom-designed photo albums and/or gallery walls to make sure you have beautiful printed memories to treasure in addition to your digital files. (Because let’s face it: social media is a trend, and nothing compares to having physical photos you can hold – not just post.) All that’s left is savoring the sweetness of newlywed life and those tangible reminders of the day you said “I do.”
Next, I’ll get to know you better through a couple of questionnaires (think: those fun quizzes we all used to email to each other). If you’ve opted for a collection with an engagement session (as you should!), we’ll also use that opportunity to get you two comfortable behind the camera and extra excited for the big day. At least two weeks out, we’ll create a custom timeline together for wedding day photos – making sure we're all set for a smooth wedding day.
Within a week from our phone call, I’ll go over all the nitty gritty pricing details with you via Zoom to help you pick the perfect collection that has you feeling pumped for what’s ahead. A week after that, we’ll sign on the dotted line and get the show on the road.
The fun starts the second you click “send” on the inquiry form. I’ll send you a text to see if you have 15 minutes to chat on the phone. During this call, you can tell me all about what you’re dreaming up for your wedding day, I’ll walk you through the average investment for my clients, and we’ll make sure we’re a mutual fit. (AKA: We’ll make sure we’re friends in the making!)
REAL STORIES & TRUE LOVE
“From beginning to end, she made the process
simple, joyous, & so beautiful.”
I cannot rave enough about how glad I am we chose Jordyn. From beginning to end, she made the process simple, joyous, and SO beautiful. It was so fun having her do engagement photos to glimpse what we would be getting from the wedding, but actually seeing the photos still blew me away. The day of the wedding, she encouraged, HYPED, and effectively organized people, groups, and movements so there never was an awkward or unsure moment.

As someone who still hasn’t printed her own wedding album (guilty!), I understand the value of done-for-you and done soon, getting your wedding album into your hands ASAP so that you can enjoy it endlessly. Because when you’re flipping through the pages of your custom photo album – with your spouse, your family, or your future grandchildren years down the line – you’re going to be endlessly grateful to your past self for investing in professional wedding photography.

She kept my schedule and got the shots I wanted without making me feel like I was being pulled in different directions. All my friends said ‘you’ll have like 5 photos that you love from your wedding’ but they couldn’t have been more wrong. Try 300+ photos that I adore!”
