These are our vows to you:

  • We will take time to understand your values and vision.

  • We will document your love beautifully, honestly and authentically.

  • We will capture the in-between, quirky moments that capture human connection: the sporadic laughter, heartfelt hugs, windblown hair, and the tears that unexpectedly trickle down your cheeks. 

  • We will capture the moments as they truly are and your love story from the inside out.

  • Everyone has a story, and as your wedding photographer, I will uncover and capture your unique narratives.

  • We’ll create a personalized experience, customizing everything to fit your needs and ensuring you feel at ease every step of the way.

  • It is our goal to curate a light-hearted and natural process, so you can be assured you WILL in fact be comfortable in front of the camera and the final product is distinctly and honestly YOU.

  • We are observant and acute to our surroundings.

  • We step up to guide situations and people naturally when needed, but are also unobtrusive in nature.

  • Whether you need advice on your timeline or input on what jewelry to wear, we've got you. Ask us anything because we are here to make things easy for you.

  • Add Ons? Extra Hours, Rehearsal Dinner coverage, film photos, etc...
    Extra Hours of digital coverage ($650 rather than $800) Videography and Content Creation Packages Available- even a digital video “guest book” option! FILM Photography (various styles and hour packages) Rehearsal Dinner Coverage $1000 for 2 hours ($600 discount) Enhance your wedding with the vendor your guests will forever remember- a premier Vinyl DJ ($500+ discount if booked together) Get in touch to learn more!
  • Can we also book a second photographer?
    Yes! Depending on the size of the wedding, a second photographer is recommended! We HIGHLY recommend booking a second to help capture the pre-ceremony and family photos (4 hours already included in the classic wedding package!!), ceremony and group photos. Full day bookings w/ the second shooter are even better!
  • Do you travel for weddings?
    We LOVE to travel and am happy to go wherever your wedding may take me! We include the first 60 miles from Denver for the elopement and intimate wedding packages. (i.e. Roundtrip Denver to Boulder). We travel nationwide and internationally for weddings and have no travel limits :)
  • How many images are included?
    I send you the bet of the best photos. No more capping photos and holding images hostage from you. We deliver approximately 75-100 images per hour of shooting, but we don't set hard limits on what we deliver. I send every image I believe deserves to be seen and shared. Every shoot is unique, and we capture it all.
  • What is your experience as a photographer?
    I have over a decade of experience and have photographed hundreds of weddings, branding sessions, families and events. I am very transparent with my portfolio of all my albums to date and 250+ reviews.
  • What is your photography shooting style?
    One of our greatest strengths is knowing when to step in as creative directors and when to quietly document the moment. With a heartfelt and natural style, we strike the perfect balance between gentle guidance and candid storytelling. Your day will feel authentic—never staged or overproduced. Together, we’ll create images that allow you to relive the raw emotions and genuine *feeling* of your special day every time you look at your photos.
  • What is your photography editing style?
    My editing style is designed to stand the test of time. Every image is hand-edited with care, ensuring a timeless look that stays true to how the moment really was. I make artistic color adjustments to create a standout image with contrast, warmth, and rich tones. Highlights are brought back to life, shadows are given the perfect boost, and midtones are tactfully infused with a warmth that allows your album to have that honest 'look' and nostalgic glow.
  • What does photo delivery look like?
    Weddings (specifically): You will receive sneak peeks within a week and a full album of final high -resolution images within three months of the wedding date via an online gallery. No watermarks, full printing and download rights, and a print shop feature integrated into every digital gallery! Digital or printed, you’ll have everything you need to relive your special celebration.
  • Do you have liability insurance?
    Yes! Kalen Jesse Photography is fully insured and licensed under Kalen Jesse Photography, LLC. If your venue needs proof of insurance, we can supply that document so that we are all set!
  • How do you back up and protect our photos?
    I take protecting your photos very seriously. Every image is backed up in multiple places: on two portable 5TB hard drives, two 20TB desktop hard drives, and an ongoing cloud backup. This ensures your memories are safe and secure, no matter what!
  • What if I need to cancel or reschedule my wedding?
    In the unfortunate scenario that you need to cancel or reschedule any type of shoot (wedding or non-wedding), the original deposit is [by law] non-refundable. We try our hardest to work with clients on this, but in most scenarios deposits are 100% non- refundable. We understand that things happen and wedding dates need to change. If you are hoping to change the date of your wedding, we cannot guarantee availability but will work with you the best that we can to make it work.
