Kelowna
Wedding Photographer

Documentary photography for couples who value presence over posing. Capturing the honest, unscripted moments of your Okanagan wedding day.

The approach
"I don’t just want you to remember what your wedding looked like; I want you to remember exactly what it felt like."

My philosophy is rooted in observation. I stay on the periphery, allowing the day to unfold naturally, capturing the quiet glances, the shared laughter, and the unexpected tears that define your story.

Whether you're celebrating in a sprawling vineyard or an intimate mountain retreat, my goal is to create a timeless visual legacy that honors the authenticity of your connection.

Venues I've worked at

The Okanagan is extraordinary.

From the rolling vineyards of Naramata to the lakefront estates of Kelowna, I have had the privilege of capturing weddings at some of the most beautiful locations in British Columbia.

"Jelle did the photos at our wedding and let me tell you. - he was amazing! On time, out of the way and captured the important moments that my bride and I didn’t see. If you are considering him as your photographer…rest assured that you will be making the right decision. The pictures were fantastic, unscripted and impactful! Thank you Jelle for such an amazing job and being such an important part of our special day! You are appreciated"

"Jelle was an absolute pleasure to work with. We had him as our photographer for our wedding in July and could not have been happier with the photos, how flexible he was, and how comfortable he made us feel overall. His work was amazing, he was so kind everytime we talked or met with him, and we have the most amazing photos to remember our day thanks to him. Would 100% recommend him to anyone! "
