Here’s how this whole thing works.

Seven steps from first hello to final gallery.

step 1

Start with the full picture

Most photographers show you their top 20 shots. I’d rather show you complete galleries from start to finish, in every kind of light and every kind of weather. Because the question isn’t whether I can get one great shot. It’s whether I can deliver consistently across an entire day. Take a look for yourself.

step 2

Choose your collection

Three collections, each one is built around a different kind of wedding day, and collection enhancements are available if you want to expand coverage or bring in extras like a second photographer or rush delivery. Full collections start at $6,000.

step 3

Lean on me for the rest

After 800+ weddings, I’ve worked with all of the best vendors in our industry. Florists, planners, DJs, venues, hair and makeup, the works. Once you book, I’ll send over The First Chapter, a welcome box that includes my full vendor guide with personal recommendations. Less time researching, more time enjoying the engagement.

step 4

Get camera-comfortable

If your collection includes an engagement session, this is where we put it on the calendar. Pick a place that means something to you, or let me suggest a spot with great light. Either way, it’s a low-pressure way to spend an hour or two together and get comfortable in front of the camera. By the time your wedding day rolls around, we’ll feel like old friends. Which is exactly the point.

step 5

The Calm kicks in

About a month out, I’ll send a full timeline review and we’ll hop on a call to walk through every minute of the day. On the wedding day itself, I’m not just shooting photos. I’m running family formals, keeping us on schedule, and quietly making sure nothing slips. This is the part my couples talk about most. The one wedding vendor they’d never compromise on. You don’t have to think about anything except being in the moment. I’ve got the rest.

step 6

Previews, then The Drop

A week (or less) after the wedding, you’ll get a set of sneak-peek previews. Things to post, share, and set as the new profile pic. Your full gallery (I call it The Drop) lands at 4 weeks, ready to download, print, and order albums from directly. Beautiful photos, delivered at one month.

step 7

Still here, long after the wedding

Once you’re a JTC couple, you’re in for the long haul. Priority booking on future sessions, first dibs on new mini sessions, and a standing invite to come back for anniversaries, maternity, newborns, family shoots, whatever life throws your way next. The wedding’s the start. There’s a lot more story to tell.

“I have worked with many photographers over the years, and when I say no one compares to Jason, I truly mean it. He was the one vendor I wasn’t willing to compromise on. I knew he would be the calm presence we needed on our wedding day.”

Biggsville, Illinois

“From the very beginning, he made us feel like we were old friends, warm, genuine, and so easy to be around. On our big day, he kept everything on track without ever making it feel rushed or stressful, especially during family photos, which he handled like a pro.”

“Jason has an intangible gift for capturing love and emotion in a photograph. His talents are priceless to us, and we would hire him again without question. We even chose our wedding date based on his availability.”
