Jasmine is based in Albuquerque, but we service all of New Mexico (and branching to Colorado). We have team members that live in Taos so traveling throughout northern New Mexico is never a problem for us. We love to travel so if you're planning a wedding somewhere not in the Land of Enchantment and headset that you want Jasper K Photography to photograph your big day, the answer is YAAAS, we’ll be there for you.
In a world of bright/airy + dark/moody photographers, Jasper K is on a whole other level with vibrant, bold, + rich colors. The staged whimsical + romantic photos are great, but the candid, organic moments of genuine laughter, heartfelt tears, killer dance moves, + true love at it's finest is what Jasper K is all about.
We gotchu with those fire picturesque portraits of you + your boo for IG, those classic family formals your family will proudly share on their FB walls, + allllllllllll of those little(+big) moments in between.
We do our best to capture every crazy perfect moment as they unfold to give you memories that you, your fam, + all your future littles will treasure forever.
We will always go the extra mile to make sure you are happy + things are running smoothly. Think of us as an honorary bestie who will always go above + beyond for you to make sure you have a kick ass best day ever. We want you to look back + feel eagles while reminiscing on the memories of your wedding day.
Absolutely! 99% of my couples tell us how awkward it is to be in front of the camera. We totally get it, we get anxious being in front of the camera as well. It’s totally okay! It’s our job to make you feel as comfortable as possible while bringing out your true, genuine, silly selves. You don’t have to have any modeling experience whatsoever. All you have to do is be honest, open, and remind each other of how amazing your love is. We promise, we will have a great time + get some super rad photos!
YAS absolutely. Jasper K is proud to serve the LGBTQIA community. We believe all love stories deserve to be celebrated.
We have two packages that include engagement sessions, but you can add one on at any time. We love engagement sessions because it allows us to get to know each other before the wedding (you definitely want to meet the team who will be following y'all around the day of your wedding with their cameras) and it captures the funnest part of planning your wedding; being engaged! Although we don’t include them in every package, we definitely feel that every couple should consider adding on an engagement session to their package of choice because it gives us a chance to get to know each other better, hang out, + you get the chance to use some pretty rad pictures for your save the dates, Christmas cards, or to make your mom a “#ProfessionalCutiePies” mug for her birthday.
While this will vary from session to session, there are some general rules that can be followed:
Avoid neon colors. Rich, earthy tones + soft, creamy neutrals photograph much better, + won't leave color casts on the skin. Avoid busy patterns (including plaid or jungle animal print).
It's best to choose colors + outfits that compliment one another, rather than match identically. Plus, your bodies won't blend together + leave you with floating heads in your images.
Avoid clothing with any noticeable logos.
Layers + textures are your friends. They'll add a bit of contrast + visual interest to your photos.
Don't be afraid to accessorize! Statement necklaces, floral crowns, turquoise jewelry, or chunky bracelets can be the final touch your outfit(s) need.
Remember, the clothing you choose will play a big role in the style + feel of the session so have fun, choose pieces you really love, + most importantly; that will make you feel as fantastic as you look. #comfyiskey

We are very knowledgeable with fabulous photo locations and have lists of incredible places to recommend, but we will need more info from you -- let us know what type of scenery you are wanting or if you have a theme/vision in mind so I can send recommendations accordingly. If you have a location in mind, we definitely recommend checking to see if a permit is needed to shoot there.
Ab-so-freaking-lutely. Fur babies are always invited to your portrait sesh! We recommend bringing a friend or family member to come along so your fur babe can be taken care of while we get some shots of you two! Don't forget the treats!
There are so many factors that come in when planning the timing of your session. Our team are experienced in many different lighting scenarios and we are knowledgeable with using lighting equipment and modifiers. We are confident in our shooting abilities in any type of lighting situation!
When inquiring, please include what you are envisioning for your session and if you are hoping to shoot indoors or outdoors as well as any scheduling needs we need to keep in mind.
It’s never too early to inquire and lock us in as your wedding photo/video team, but best advice we can give is to book about a year to a year and a half out. May, June, September and October are very popular wedding months!
You can schedule a discovery call here.
We will send you the contract + invoice through my client portal. We require a flat fee retainer of $500 (it is applied to your full balance) to book. The remaining balance is due 30 days before the wedding. Yay to simplicity!
Again, it’s never too early (or too late!) to inquire! As long as we have your date available, we’ll be there!
We have an elopement/intimate wedding package that is a smaller investment for a shorter amount of photo/video coverage.
We have a team of incredible photographers and videographers that are ready to capture your day! If our whole team is booked, we have amazing recommendations of fellow local photographers/videographers that we are happy to send over.
We’ll send you an invoice through my client portal. I also accept cash, checks, PayPal, Venmo, + Apple Pay.
Yes we do! We offer A La Carte options to create a custom package that works for you. We also offer 4 packages that are designed to fit various wedding needs as well bundling some of our fabulous offerings together so that it is a quick pick if you want to book ASAP!
YES! We know that weddings can be pricey and we want to make this entire experience as stress-free as possible. We offer monthly or bi-monthly payments plans. :)
While there may be times of the day that are slower, we are there in your service regardless. Putting an hour or two between events isn't time that we are able to use for anything personal outside of being "in wait" for shooting the rest of your wedding, + as such the hours are continuous.
We have a team of amazing associate shooters who are trained exclusively to fit Jasper K's specific style. We’ll definitely make sure everyone vibes together before your big day. #wegotchuboo
We don’t provide props, but what we do use are tools to make our photographs interesting, bold, + fun. We are always looking for creative ways to shoot whether it’s throwing a colorful smoke bomb behind you, using a prism to get cool light reflections, or getting artistic with the angles. If you would like to bring props to your session, you absolutely can!
Yes, we bring my own off camera lighting + am fully proficient in shooting night-time wedding receptions + sparkler exits. :D
An unplugged wedding is when you STRONGLY encourage your guests to keep their phones and cameras down during the ceremony and key parts of the reception. We have a gallery of images of that we’d be happy to send you if you'd like to see examples.
Wedding coverage options range from 4 hours to full-day coverage; there is a 2 hour minimum for elopements + intimate weddings. The ideal coverage all depends on your wedding timeline + logistics. Usually a minimum 8 hours is enough time to photograph the ‘getting ready’ through the reception. We are more than happy to help you figure out exactly how many hours of coverage you need for your day!
We do not! We don't require a first look + honestly don't have a really strong preference. As long as we plan your day strategically, you don't mind missing a bit of your cocktail hour/reception, + we have plenty of natural light left after the ceremony, it's ay-okay with JPK!
The only photos that we do not deliver is mid-blinking, blurry or unflattering photos that we know you won’t have any desire to print/have. We absolutely do not send any RAW (un-edited) photos – you’re hiring us for our editing style + trust that we will send you only the best photos.
Each wedding and session is different —so it’s completely based on how many hours we are hired for and how much goes on come shoot day. Our average delivery is about 100+ images per hour, plus select duplicate black + white conversions! If there is a second shooter, there will be more images.
Online Gallery with full High-Resolution photos. No watermarks or logos will be on the photos. We’ll give you a download code so you have full access to your pictures and you can share/print away.
We give written permission and a print release so that you can make unlimited copies and prints of your images (you know mom’s going to get #craycray printing photos!). So as long as you aren’t selling your images, entering them in photo contests, or submitting them to vendors or blogs without me knowing or without my permission, they are yours.
For 90 days after the date they are released to you.
For portraits sessions, we generally get your images up for you to see in 21 days. For weddings, no more than 12 weeks after your wedding.
For 90 days after the date they are released to you.
The way we edit is very minimal. To give the image it's true likeness. we work hard to make sure that you love the way you look in our photographs! We do color/exposure corrections and some minor patching up if need be. Any extensive photoshop editing that you request will be $20 per photo.
Heck yes, we do. We freaking love albums. Nothing is better than seeing your images come to life on paper. Albums are not included in our packages, but rather A La Carte. Some couples even decide after their wedding to purchase an album! You pick the images, we design the album, and send it over to you for a final proof before we order it! Once we order it, it usually takes 4-8 weeks (sometimes sooner) to get the final album delivered on your doorstep. We also offer heirloom quality prints + canvases.
Not a problem! We offer parent album add ons that are exactly like your album just mini size!
Not at all! You have 1 month from when your images are delivered to decide on the album and receive it at collection pricing. After the 1 month has expired, you may still order albums but they will be at the a la carte pricing.
I would seriously have to be on my death bed to miss your wedding day! In the rare circumstance that happens, my trained second shooter would step into the role of lead photographer, + one of my other trained associates or a new second shooter would be found from a list of photographers whom I trust. In the case of my untimely death, I have systems in place to make sure my upcoming weddings would be photographed, + then weddings/sessions I've shot would be accessible + edited. You are completely covered.
I strongly recommend detailed lists of family members and groupings for family/friend photos. We just want to make sure to snag a photo of all of your favorite peeps (they were chosen by you + your boo to be there for a special reason so we don't want to miss the opportunity of capturing their smiles!) If you want to share wedding inspiration with me, you can find my Pinterest here + give it a follow, but I strive to create new memories rather than copy other people's work. :)
Absolutely, homeslice! In fact, you should ask any photographer who you are inquiring with to see their full galleries! It’s super important to see a final finished product! We are more than happy to send you several galleries to see in their entirety.
YAAAAAS. It's go time! Get in touch + let's do the damn thing! #excitedaf
