Wedding Photography Victoria BC Wedding Photographer Bay Area CA Jesse Holland bio picture

Hello!

I am a Californian Canadian; I moved to Canada for love (loves name is Kevin) but I still miss having an orange tree in my backyard.

I love my family.

I love my husband.

And I love my dog. Even though he can be bad, he is too cute to resist.

My first camera was a Fischer Price blue and yellow contraption that I only remember using to photograph Yosemite when I was seven years old; and I might be making that age up.

I found my love for photography in a basement bar in Japan, when I met a man named Carlos.

I broke my leg on a zip line and have had to have three knee operations as a result. Recovering from these operations was the most boring part of my life, though I did read a lot and watched way too much trashy tv.

The best use of my Psychology degree is people watching; I like to make up stories for myself about people I don't know.

I like telling stories with my camera; my stories and your stories.

I think I might be invisible. My reasoning? I am almost never able to set off motion sensor toilets at airports.

I am a photographer for people who want to capture the love in their life. The love for their partners, families and pets.

I am available to shoot worldwide and have a special on travel rates to the Bay Area of California.

xo,

Jesse

Tasty Tuesdays Portfolio Outtakes

I haven’t blogged my Tasty Tuesdays in a while (they mostly just make it to my flickr account). So, for those who don’t know what TT are, they are basically old photos from my archives. The name comes from my friend Reuben, and you can check out the original TT here. When I went looking through my archives today though, I found some out takes from a portfolio shot I did for school, so I thought I would show the outtakes and the portfolio shot. A little background for all you non-rowers out there. When you compete in rowing you where a uni-suit, which lead me to the idea of shooting Kevin, my fiance and world champion rower, in a regular ol’ suit in his boat and a uni-suit in an office. So, first the shot from my portfolio:
