About Madeline Jacobus Photography

Madeline Jacobus Photography

Head Photographer

Madeline Jacobus is a San Diego–based wedding photographer known for her warm personality, artistic eye, and ability to capture the moments that make your day truly unforgettable. She specializes in candid storytelling, emotional portraits, and beautifully intentional detail shots that help you relive the magic for years to come. Madeline brings a fun, calming presence to every wedding day, ensuring you feel comfortable, celebrated, and fully yourselves in front of the camera. Her goal is simple: to document your story in a way that feels honest, timeless, and deeply meaningful.

What sets me apart is the fun, encouraging energy I bring and the genuine connection I build with every couple. I go above and beyond to support my brides, keep the day running smoothly, and capture candid moments filled with emotion. I intentionally take only 1–2 weddings per month to give each couple my full attention, offer a fast turnaround, and deliver both digital and film images that feel timeless, artistic, and truly magical. Plus you might get a few surprises in the mail from me ;)

    Highly recommend working with Madeline!!

    Madeline was an absolute pleasure to work with for our engagement session. From the start, she was warm, professional, and incredibly easy to be around, which made us feel genuinely comfortable in front of the camera. She guided us through poses with ease while still allowing everything to feel natural. The final images were phenomenal, beautifully composed, flattering, and full of personality. We are so excited to work with her again on our wedding day and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer in San Diego.

    Captured our love perfectly!

    We truly couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful photographer. Her passion is felt in every moment she captures, and her artistic eye turns the smallest details into something incredibly special. She made us feel so comfortable and cared for throughout the entire process, and it shows beautifully in her work. Our photos are timeless, emotional, and full of life! Moe is not only incredibly talented, but a joy to work with.

    Exceptional

    Madeline Jacobus Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we first spoke with Madeline, her passion for her work and sweet demeanor put us at ease. She was also incredibly affordable, which was a huge plus as we planned our wedding on a budget. The quality of Madeline's work is exceptional - she has an eye for stylish, artistic shots and her photos beautifully captured the integrity and joy of our special day. Madeline went above and beyond, creating a special keepsake box filled with Polaroid pictures from our wedding. She also helped us pose naturally, making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Madeline even traveled all the way to the beach for our maternity photo session, demonstrating her commitment to her hard-working, client-focused approach. We couldn't be happier with the memories Madeline has helped us preserve, and we highly recommend her services to any couple planning their wedding.
