About Jesse Madison Photography

Jesse Madison Photography

Lead Photographer

What sets us apart from others is how much we value our clients. They mean the world to us and we truly bring our best at each and every wedding to deliver authentic, beautiful photos and wedding films that they will cherish for a lifetime. I am offering our couples a free copy of my Wedding Planning book, "From Yes to I Do: The Portable Wedding Planning Guide & Checklist for Brides". A perfect way to get started! I know exactly how to capture the magic of your big day, from the smallest details to the big moments. We bring a ton of care and thought into making sure your wedding day is documented in the most stunning, meaningful way possible.

Here are some of the ways I make your vision come to life: Lighting Magic: Whether it's soft natural light or perfectly diffused flash, I use lighting to make sure every shot is flattering. Portrait Perfection: From family portraits, bridal portraits to romantic couple shots, I create curated experiences with professional lighting. Creative Bokeh: That dreamy, creamy background? Yep, that's me. I use it to keep the focus on YOU. Tailored to Your Day: No two weddings are the same. I customize my approach to each setting. Low Light, No Problem: Even in dim or tricky lighting, our top-tier gear captures clear, crisp images. Let's Chat

Jesse was a great photographer, really professional with all of his own equipment. For example, our wedding party was very large, and he had multiple wide lenses that he could use to properly capture the whole party. I really recommend Jesse for anyone looking for a good photographer with lots of experience in weddings.

I can’t stop getting emotional every time I look at our wedding photos and videos. Jesse didn’t just capture our day, he captured the love, the joy, and all the tiny moments I never want to forget. He listened to everything we hoped for and brought our vision to life in the most beautiful way. We’re so grateful for how he went above and beyond for us. Thank you, Jesse, for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever!

Jesse was very professional and personable. He's a professional who knows what he's doing and has incredible vision with his craft. Jesse was one of my top 3 photographers while we were on the hunt for a photographer/ videographer. We knew we wanted someone who could provide both. We had inquired for a quote and after that, he reached out to us. We had a budget so we politely declined his services as we continued to look elsewhere. After sending that message to Jesse, he gave us a call and asked what we were looking for and that he could work with us given our date was on a Friday, and it was more flexible. We discussed all the details, our wants and needs and he gave us he professional opinion on the ideal time he would need to capture everything we wanted. We had several calls over 8 months. He was very responsive via text message. He was very reassuring and even created a timeline with us to break down the times. On wedding day, he was very polite and professional. His team of 3 including himself captured our day in the most beautiful way in just 6 hours! Our photos came back within a week and our highlights and videos came back within 3! They were quick with everything; we received our video and photos for download within two weeks and we were able to relive our wedding day through his photos and videos!
Highly Recommend Jesse!

Where do I begin! Jesse was incredible and truly a master at his craft. He did a fantastic job capturing all the special moments at my wedding and was so professional! He also did my engagement photo shoot and every single photo was beautiful! Jesse was extremely communicative throughout the whole process, from the engagement photos, to assisting me with my wedding timeline to capturing the best moments on that special day! He is truly a kind soul and it was an absolute pleasure working with him. If you are looking for a professional and reputable photographer for your wedding or engagement shoot, look no further! I can’t say enough good things about Jesse and would highly recommend Jesse Madison Photography!!

As a full-time business owner I try to give my full attention and creativity to all projects we shoot. This requires us to limit how many weddings we will shoot per year. Please understand if we are unable to shoot your wedding or event if we have too many bookings on the calendar during a heavy booking season. We try to limit our weddings to about 25/year.

We accept all makor forms of payment (e-transfer, venmo, cash, credit, etc.) .

We always respond as quickly as possible to all inquiries in the same day. Unless we receive your inquiry late at night. In those special cases we respond the next morning.

I do not charge travel fees for local weddings. All weddings within 100 miles of our 92688 zip code in Orange County, CA do not incur travel fees.

As a professional photographer and videographer there are times I get booked for one service only on a wedding day. We love working with other vendors and understand what we need to do to make their job easier. As a member of WIPA, I network with top industry professionals on a regular basis. We will always try and cooperate with your other vendors to make sure they can do their job to the best of their ability. We do all we can to best serve the couple as a team.

Your digital files will be delivered to you. They will then be saved for 1 year. We encourage you to download and back up all your photos once delivered. Your films are available for download on a vidflow website for 10 years. From vidflow you will be able to stream your video to your TV and mobile devices. You must download your video and back it up on your hard drive for safekeeping.

When you book with us, we require a 50% non-refundable retainer fee to save your date. In the case that you completely cancel your wedding, this fee is not refundable. But we always allow the option to reschedule on a date that is agreeable to both photographer and client.

We deliver all photos within 2 weeks of your wedding day. You can expect your weding film to be ready 4-6 weeks from your wedding date. Also, your digital products are delivered online for digital download.
