Whether you found me on TikTok - Instagram -Google - or through a friend. I am the photographer behind JGuelPhoto.

With 16 years of experience and hundreds of events captured, I still get nervous on my way to your big day. Not because I’m unprepared but because I want everything to go right. So yes, we’re going to get the perfect shot and stunning videos — but we’re also going to laugh and capture that moment you didn’t plan.
