Meet the Artist

Hi I’m Jordan — the face behind Venture and Style, where art, storytelling, and adventure come together to capture love in its truest form. My journey started in 2014 with a Canon 6D slung over my shoulder as I traveled the world, exploring 24 countries and discovering my passion for documenting life’s most meaningful moments. Since then, I’ve transitioned to shooting with Sony, fine-tuned my craft, and found my true calling: small, intimate weddings and micro-weddings.

Growing up in a family of artists, creativity runs deep in my veins. My mom and aunts sculpt, paint, and photograph, and I grew up surrounded by inspiration. I’ve been making films since I was a kid, crafting homemade movies long before I had a professional camera in hand. That lifelong love for storytelling is what drives me to create visuals that aren’t just beautiful—they’re deeply personal.

 

Who I Am

An adventurous goofball sums me up well. I thrive on deep conversations, spontaneous adventures, and moments of quiet reflection in nature. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll probably find me hiking Arizona’s trails, chasing adrenaline-fueled activities, or spending time with my wife and our two amazing daughters.

Every couple I work with is unique, and I love finding creative ways to bring your story to life. Whether it’s trying something new, embracing a sense of adventure, or simply being present for the quieter moments, I’m here to make sure your memories are as timeless as they are meaningful.


My Philosophy

I believe the best moments are the ones you don’t plan for—the quiet glances, the uncontrollable laughter, the tears you didn’t think would fall. That’s why I approach weddings with a thoughtful, unobtrusive presence, reading the room and capturing the little moments that matter most. I’m here to make sure your wedding day feels effortless, allowing you to focus on what truly matters: each other.

Big weddings can feel chaotic, pulling focus away from the love that brought you to this day. That’s why I’ve found my niche in micro-weddings and intimate celebrations. These smaller settings allow us to connect, build a genuine chemistry, and create photos and films that reflect your story authentically.
