Jesse Adair Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,700
  • Serves Clayton, NC

Hey there! I’m Jesse Crossland, a wedding and portrait photographer passionate about capturing love in its most genuine and playful moments. My goal is to make every couple feel beautiful and comfortable in front of the camera, so their personalities shine through in every image. What drives me is seeing couples light up when they see their photos—those little, in-between moments of laughter, stolen glances, and pure happiness. It’s why I do what I do. If you’re looking for a photographer who truly cares about your experience and wants to make the process fun and stress-free, I’d love to chat!

Jesse made our engagement shoot SO easy! And the photos that came out of it felt very us. You could see our emotions and movement in the photos which is exactly what we were going for. She brings excitement to the session and has prompts that don’t feel like you’re being posed and static. We are so excited for her to capture our wedding next year! Jesse’s communication ahead of the shoot and during the signing process was also timely, helpful, and kind. Would 100% recommend her!

Their warmth and friendliness instantly put us at ease, making the entire experience feel effortless and fun. The calls before the wedding to go over details were incredibly helpful, ensuring everything ran smoothly on the big day. One thing that meant a lot to me was getting specific photos with certain family members and bridal party groups, and Joe and Ashley made that happen seamlessly. Being able to send them a list of must-have shots was such a relief, and they powered through it all while still keeping things fun and natural. Those photos will be cherished for a lifetime! And if you’re on the fence about video—DO IT. Having a beautifully edited video with sound clips woven in so perfectly brought our wedding day back to life in a way that photos alone just can’t. The way they captured every little moment, every emotion—it’s truly priceless. Joe and Ashley are not just incredibly talented at what they do, but they also make the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. If you’re looking for a photographer and videographer who genuinely care, are highly organized, and will capture your wedding day in the most perfect way possible, look no further.

We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him.

Awarded Best of Zola
My fiancé and I recently had our engagement shoot with Joey and it was so much fun! He was truly a professional and it showed in our photos. He really understands angles and lighting and we literally loved all of our photos. He is an artist and that was exactly what we wanted! We cannot wait to share them with everyone and frame them for our home.

I have been a photographer since 2017 and have shot over 200 weddings to date. If you’re looking to add an ally to your wedding team you are in the right place! We will provide consultation to avoid the common wedding day hiccups. Whether it’s running behind schedule or securing the best available locations for your photos. Have you ever modeled before? Probably not, and that’s ok!! We have successfully worked with all personality types. Our goal is to bring your vision to life. No two weddings should be the same. We will approach your special day as a huge collaborative effort.

We live in Texas but always dreamed of doing a New York photoshoot.  We contacted Manai and told him all our ideas.  We were very specific in our demands.  Manai did not disappoint!  He was so patient with us. We ended up booking him for an additional shoot.  When my wife saw the pictures she was in tears.  He met our demands and more.  A true gentleman. Thank you Manai!
