I love capturing authentic moments. From witnessing happy tears, the connection during a first look, feeling the warmth of all the joyful laughters, and the candid moments that make the day what it should be — genuinely sweet like honey!

I’m Jel! Also known as Jelly. And it may come as no surprise that I absolutely adore shooting film photography as if you were a character from a Nicholas Spark film or Love Actually!

Connection, authenticity, documentary, and storytelling through timeless imagery is the foundation of my work. I love being in the moment and let the day unfold naturally so you can live fully in these memories.

FRIENDS & COMMUNITY!

If you book me, you're getting more than just a film photographer. My goal is to lead with purpose and love community. I have became friends with each and every couple & family. I love to serve them in more ways than just a film. The best experience comes from trust and a relationship, which matters to me on a personal level as much as a professional one. Just know I will always be in your corner!

Dear friend,

I’m so happy you are here!!

My mom and dad were both the most loving and hard working teammates and parents. They both ensured that my sister and I’s heart was filled with so much love, have fortitude, and community to lean on.

I hope to establish that we are the best match for each other to give you a cherished keepsake for years to come. Hold the people you love onto so tight, and the memories too!

@withlovealwaysfilm is dedicated to my mom and dad, who instilled a strong work hard and play hard ethic to become successful, happy, and find love in both.

I will always hold onto the life lessons he shared with me.  They introduced documenting special moments together. I’ve been into photography and cameras since high school then slowly grew into loving flim post-college!

I know they are both playing 18 holes in heaven together. I’ll always hold the sweetest memories with them close to my heart and the community that continues to grow.

Thank you for coming along this adventure. With that said, I promise to make your day relaxed and document your love in an authentic way. Your love is unique and deserves to be captured that way!

With love Always,

Jel
