Father, husband and lover of capturing humans!
Investing in family and wedding photography so important - I love that we can look back on those big milestones and moments, remembering our friends and family just how they are.
For me, I think it's all about capturing those real, honest moments that show your true selves, so with my photography I aim to tell your story the way it is.
Each story is unique and worth telling, and I love giving people the chance to hold onto memories forever.
Jake was exactly what we wanted.

behind the lens:
Hi, I'm Jake Grinde and I have a passion for photography.
It all started with my Dad, because while I was growing up, he always filmed and photographed our family adventures.
Now that he has passed, we can look back on those incredible moments forever. My goal as a photographer is to help you capture your own unforgettable moments.
Moments are fleeting. Photography is how I keep these moments forever.
When I'm not behind a camera, you'll find me spending time in the outdoors with my wife, daughter and dogs.
I love traveling, playing music and sharing a nice cold beer with my favourite people.
I can't wait to meet you and capture your adventure!

my APPROACH
candid with minimal posing — TIMELESS, PERSONAL, romantic, AND ENTIRELY YOU.
Not everyone is comfortable in front of a camera (myself included!), and lots of people find posing really awkward. Throughout my years of experience capturing weddings, I have learned how to guide you and your loved ones to feel comfortable and look amazing. While of course capturing the candid moments along the way.
I'm all about those real, unscripted moments – the heartfelt first looks, the wild dance floor moves, the genuine laughter. Think of me as your hype-man with a camera, freezing your wedding day magic.
Having tied the knot in 2022, I totally understand the wedding planning hustle.
My goal? To make your photography experience seamless and stress-free.

FUN FACTS about jake:
1. I love of all animals and have been vegan for nearly 10 years.
2. Music is one of my biggest inspirations! Growing up I always had music around me. I can (very moderately) play guitar, drums and piano.
3. I have a wife that I adore, a beautiful daughter, Cecilia, and 2 crazy doggos (A Golden Retriever & a Lab x Golden)
4. I probably have the worst dance moves you will ever see!
If you see me on your dance floor, just make sure I've got a camera so I don't embarrass you with my terrible moves.
5. I can't wait to capture your big day. It's my passion.
