investment
you’re getting married!
Choosing your wedding photographer(s) & wedding collection can be overwhelming. It isn’t simply another wedding expense. It is instead an investment in the future. This investment is one of the most important wedding decisions a couple can make. How your day is captured largely rests with the artistic vision, talent, style, & ability of your photographer(s) as well as the relationship & trust built between clients & professionals. My husband, Donny, & I understand this and we take great care to not only make our clients vision a reality, but to offer a personalized, professional, & enjoyable experience.
We strive to capture real, emotional, & candid moments and tell authentic stories in a unique & creative way. Donny & I offer a bright, natural, vivid, & timeless style that will never go out of fashion or fade with trends and high quality products that will stand the test of time. We have also invested in top-of-the-line camera equipment that ensures the best possible results! Additionally, Donny & I love what we do for a living and enjoy each wedding and every relationship we have the pleasure of building with our couples. We’re very down to earth, adventurous, fun, professional, & organized, and we take pride in the experience we offer to our clients.
The wedding planning process is often quite long and requires A LOT of planning to ensure the best results. Given this, Donny & I are always happy to help our clients with wedding planning, whether it be recommendations for trusted wedding vendors, logistics, or the wedding schedule. We provide a pre-wedding questionnaire to all of our clients to help organize information for the big day so we can ensure details & preferences are communicated. We also develop a day of timeline to help each wedding run smoothly for photography. While we are not wedding planners ourselves, Donny & I understand that planning is vital in this industry to ensure the best possible results for photography. We also realize that it’s a very special time in the lives of all of our couples and their families and we strive to make our clients experiences as enjoyable & as memorable as possible. If we can save you a headache or help in anyway, we’re always happy to!
When it comes to choosing a wedding collection, we believe in the power of options. Donny and I offer four distinct wedding packages as well as a la carte services & products for those who wish to build their own collection. Our wedding packages range from $2,500-$4,200.

Kind Words
“Jessica and Donny were the absolute most amazing addition we could have asked for for our wedding! Not only did they plan out our entire day, but they made it enjoyable, stress-free and absolutely perfect! We did our engagement photos with them as well and they were so wonderful! Not only are Jess and Donny amazing photographers, but now we consider them our friends! They are going to be with us for all the milestones to come that is for sure! You cannot have better photographers to capture your perfect day then these two! The pictures were back to us so quickly and I still look at them every day almost 8 months later!! We LOVE Jessica Kae Photography!!!!”

“5 stars doesn’t even do a justice for how amazing Jessica Kae Photography is. They are absolutely worth 10 stars! Jessica and Donny are a dream to work with! From day one I knew she was the right choice. Jessica is so easy to work with, she’s so organized and she makes it so much fun! My now husband dreaded our engagement photos because he hates getting pictures, but after our photo shoot with Jessica and Donny we were leaving and he goes “ok that was actually so much fun!” We just got our sneak peak for our wedding photos and I’m so obsessed I cannot wait to see the rest! Picking Jessica as our photographer was the easiest decision in the wedding planning process and I highly recommended her to anyone planning their wedding!!”

“Jess and Donny were both absolutely wonderful to work with for my wedding (and engagement session)! They’re so down to earth, easy to work with, and passionate in their work. They both made my husband and me feel at ease throughout the entire day, and we’re so grateful they were a part of our wedding day! The attention to detail really shines through in every single photograph. Thank you, Jess and Donny, for taking such wonderful pictures that we get to cherish for the rest of our lives!”

“Jessica Kae Photography was truly the best decision we made for our wedding!! We haven’t even gotten all of our pictures back, but we are so happy with our experience that we had to yell it from the mountain tops! Jess & Donny were extremely responsive throughout the entire process, willing to email/call/etc. to answer our constant questions. They were incredibly helpful in developing our picture schedule for the day of the wedding and made sure we got all of the dreamy photos we were hoping for. It snowed like crazy on the day of our wedding, but nothing fazes these two. Jess was so excited to toss us a bubble umbrella and take the most romantic photos in the snow! We are so happy with our initial photos and just how flexible and kind they were throughout such a hectic day. Would 1000% recommend these two for any of your photography needs!!”
