Photography for the ones that don't want to worry about photography

I hear this from just about every couple…we don’t know what to do in front of the camera.

My response is always the same: I specialize in photographing couples that don’t know what to do in front of the camera. Most couples want candid, authentic smiles, and in order to achieve that, we need to be candid in our authentic moments.

Hey! I'm Jason.

I’m a Documentary style photographer based in chicago.

I’m drawn to real moments and effortless storytelling. I document weddings as they unfold, focusing on genuine emotion, natural movement, and the in-between moments that often matter most. Nothing forced, nothing overly posed — just honest images that reflect how your day actually felt.

My work blends a documentary approach with a clean, editorial aesthetic, creating photographs that feel timeless, modern, and personal. I give just enough direction to keep things comfortable, then step back and let the moments happen. The result is a collection of images that feels elevated yet real — the kind you’ll come back to for the memories, not just the way they look.
