About
Hi there, I'm Jessica Lindsay-Sonkin, a photographer who loves the outdoors as much as you! I've been photographing nature-loving people for 10+ years. I love exploring with my couples, learning their stories, and capturing authentic images of them in gorgeous surroundings. I am based out of Belleville, Ontario and travel province-wide.
If you are an outdoorsy, laid-back couple choosing to get married outside, you do not want stiff cookie-cutter photographs. Your photographs should show your love of the outdoors as well as your love for each other! You want your day to feel relaxed so you can be your authentic selves. Regardless of how you spend your wedding day, you deserve an honest visual representation of the events, location and emotions.
Experiences matter and I work to enhance your experience and capture your day as it happened. My photography style is unobtrusive and authentic. You deserve your dream outdoor wedding with a natural and stress-free photography experience.
Your wedding or elopement photography coverage with jals photography will
1) Put moments first - The most important part of your wedding day is the lived experience. You don't want your day to feel like an 8 hour photo shoot. Your photographer should compliment your day and capture moments, not take away from them!
2) Embrace the outdoors - You want a photographer who can roll with the environment and still provide you with stellar images in all outdoor conditions - rain, snow, bright sun at noon, hail, wind storms, sunset, night time, and more!
3) Is true to you - There is no "one size fits all" in photography. Your images should look like YOU with no "cookie cutter" posing. Your photo session should be personalized to fit who you are as a couple.

I love describing weddings as a collection of a couple's favourite things and there is so much emotion embedded in all elements of the day. I love seeking out moments throughout the day. Guests describe me as a ninja, which is the ultimate compliment. I want to always be present capturing moments as they unfold, but not intruding on them. I want my couples to feel excitement and also peaceful during our photo session. Taking a moment to breathe and explore the beautiful spot they chose to say their vows. As with all adventures, photographs are important, but living in the moment is moreso. I work hard to ensure that my couples receive a balance of both.
