I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Ever since I can remember, I've been captivated by the power of a single moment to tell a whole story. As a wedding photographer, I get to capture those fleeting, special moments that make each couple's love story unique. With over 4 + years of experience, I blend artistry with technical skill to create images that are not only beautiful but deeply meaningful.

Caleb was fantastic to work with. From the very beginning, he had excellent communication(from the time we booked him for our wedding.) Caleb made sure to touch base constantly to make sure everything was going good, and to see if we needed anything from him, and to send him any photo ideas we had. He was punctual to the wedding, and his professionalism and laid back style, was perfect for us and our wedding. By the time we got home from our wedding reception, he had already sent us some edited photos. Caleb’s editing style also matches the look we were after. He always had pose suggestions for us, constant ideas for how to take group shots large or small. He made us, our family and our wedding guests VERY comfortable. I would highly recommend hiring Caleb for your wedding, or any event.

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

Angelica captured our special day absolutely perfectly. We had hired her for our wedding that was supposed to happen in 2020 but had to be rescheduled for 3 years later due to the pandemic and through that entire time she stuck with us! She was communicative and responsive, and her shots were absolutely gorgeous. She managed to capture every single important moment of our celebration and the way she guides and corrals everyone into taking pictures that look good is nothing short of a miracle (trust me, I feel so awkward in front of the camera and I look incredible in all of my wedding shots.)

Timeless, unique storytelling in New York and beyond through film and digital work — Pearl Lee Photo captures every fleeting moment, transforming your most cherished events into enduring keepsakes. Pearl’s work draws inspiration from the nostalgia of her parents' wedding album and the soulful rhythms of Elvis Presley’s music (which she and her grandfather spent long drives listening to)…

Pearl Lee Photo was an incredible tea ceremony photographer for our special day. Pearl was so communicative via phone, text, and email, and she was so helpful in answering all of my questions, especially since I had no experience in tea ceremonies. Her vintage style photos were so touching, and I'm so glad she was able to capture my grandma and I in these moments. She definitely was something I didn't know I needed - her professionalism was amazing, and she worked very efficiently, knowing the best shots and how to direct everyone. I loved having Pearl as our photographer and would highly recommend her to any couple looking for beautiful, timeless tea ceremony and wedding photos.

When we hired JVaughn Photography we knew we were getting an amazing photographer but we had no idea we would be getting such an amazing person and friend out of it too! Justin is the absolute sweetest person we have had the honor of meeting and he has such a great eye to make our vision come to life! He made sure to have a meeting with us to get to know us and understand the vibe we wanted for our photos and he kept constant communication throughout the entire process to make sure all the bases were covered and he had a clear understanding of the timeframe and game plan. He was the one vendor we NEVER had to worry about. After he gave us our engagement photos, everyone knew he was the perfect photographer for us. Once the wedding day came, the entire bridal party and guests could not stop raving about how much they loved him! He gives clear direction on how to pose, what to do with your hands, how to fix your face, and knows how to use lighting. One of our biggest concerns when finding a photographer is having someone know how to use lighting because more often than not either I get lost in the light or my fiancé gets lost since our complexions are so far from each other. Thankfully Justin knew exactly how to make it all work out! He also stuck to the game plan and made sure none of those important shots are missed but he was also flexible enough to allow us to add in and change some of that game plan. I can honestly sit here and say that thanks to JVaughn Photography, our big day was absolutely perfect (even during covid). We already told him to get ready for our maternity photos, gender reveal, baby shower, and family portraits. I will forever recommend him to EVERYONE.

I met Melissa working in the industry on one of the most difficult shoots I've ever been on. That night she was a total professional and amazing photographer and we quickly bonded. I trust her so much that when it was time for my wedding she was who I asked to capture it. She travelled to France to photograph our wedding and was there like one of our family. She kept us calm and having fun in the stressful moments and her creativity made some of the most incredible wedding photos we could have imagined. Now years later Melissa is the person we call first when it is time to capture our family growing. If her photographs aren't enough to convince you, take it from someone who filmed weddings for 13 years; Melissa is the person you want capturing your day.

Grand Rapids Michigan photographer/ videographer here! I started back in high school at 16 and grew from there. With a little over 6 years of experience in the industry, I really care about getting good quality photos and videos to you within a reasonable budget! I know that getting pictures done can be expensive and we are here to provide you with excellent service and amazing photos on a budget!

We absolutely loved working with Nissa and her husband from Nissa J Photography! They have a kind, modern, and spunky communication style that made our wedding day so fun and relaxed. Their genuine, professional, and fun approach to photography resulted in stunning, high-quality photos that perfectly captured the special moments of our celebration. Nissa and her team went above and beyond to ensure we felt comfortable and enjoyed the photography process, which was a huge relief on our busy wedding day. We are thrilled with our choice and can’t wait to cherish these photos forever!
