(i-love-film)

I really do. There is something about the tactile quality, the vibrant color, the absence of color, the patience required, the craft. Something about how it pauses each moment for just one more second in the best way possible. It’s hard to put a finger on it. That’s why I love it. And why I let film influence the way I shoot, how I approach each wedding day, and capture each moment despite how much easier it would be to only shoot digital.

My hope is that all this effort and care and passion and sentimental value translates into something so much more than a photo on a screen. That you remember the way you felt, the laughs, the tears, and all the in-between moments.

photos that feel like yesterday

Kind words from y’all (minimal peer pressure involved)

  • Booking with Jack at Isle of Film Photography was the best decision I made for my wedding day. He has such a calm, genuine energy that instantly put us at ease, while also giving fun and helpful direction that made us feel confident the whole time. We never felt stressed or rushed, just comfortable and cared for! His work is absolutely stunning, with a timeless, vintage feel that stands out from the rest. I love that he shoots both digital and film, which added such an elegant, unique touch to our gallery. Every photo tells the story of our day so beautifully, and I’ll treasure them forever. If you’re looking for an elegant, timeless vibe, Jack is your guy!

    Bailey & David

  • Jack helped make our elopement the best day ever with his amazing photography! His photographic eye and adaptability created a variety of beautiful moments that will always be cherished. While his photography and professionalism needs to be emphasized and praised, I also want to share that he had such a warm friendliness during the shoot that made us feel like we could be our true selves. It’s not everyday you get married in a beautiful place like Santa Barbara, so if you want a great photo shoot experience, we can’t recommend Jack enough!

    Marissa & Peisen

  • If I could give Jack 100 stars, I would. He is such an incredibly sweet and talented photographer, he made my entire family and I all feel so comfortable the whole night. An absolute sweetheart with work that is just so insanely beautiful that you’ll feel like you could be in magazines. He sent over our pictures so fast and I am still just in such awe of him and his talent. I truly could not recommend him more!!!

    Cecilia & Carlos

  • I had such a great experience working with Jack! From the moment we started, he made me feel super comfortable! He gave clear direction while still allowing me to be myself, and the results were amazing. The photos turned out even better than I imagined. Overall, it was such a smooth and enjoyable process. I’d highly recommend Jack to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and easygoing photographer!

    Hannah

  • Jack is the best. Has an incredible eye for authentically capturing you at your best. He took our engagement photos which became our wedding invites & prints for home. He's also taken professional headshots & shot for events we have hosted. He's professional, kind, and has good character

    Celine & Conrad

  • We knew that Jack was good at taking photos, but we had no clue just how wonderful he was at capturing the small, intricate moments that make up some of the greatest memories we have. When we got the photos back, they superseded anything we could have hoped to call our own. It's been nearly 9 months since we got married, and sitting down today to revisit those moments was an emotional experience. It felt like we were right back at that special day, with these wonderful portraits captured of moments we forgot even existed. Genuinely, hiring Jack (and Carley) as our photographer was one of the single best decisions of our entire wedding process. We can't recommend them enough!!!

    Niki & Cole

  • Jack and Carley were absolutely amazing to us during our wedding! They perfectly captured the emotions and intimacy of that day and helped display it in a beautifully artistic way. Jack and Carley went above and beyond what we asked of them and delivered stunning photos showcasing the time and effort that was put into each shot. On top of all of this, we felt that Jack and Carley were extremely personable. By making us feel comfortable during photoshoots and by being great people to plan and talk with.

    Charlotte & Tony

  • The shoot was so comfortable and fun, Jack is super communicative and professional without making you feel rigid or forced. He did everything he could to make the most of our time— I have so many amazing shots with so much variety.

    Katelyn

  • Jack is an incredible photographer who has a true gift for making you feel comfortable and like your authentic self—nothing ever feels overly staged. He’s wildly creative and goes above and beyond to bring your vision to life, whether that means learning something new or tracking down the perfect studio to match your inspiration. We hire him for both our design business and personal projects, and truly couldn’t recommend him enough!

    Ryan

  • Jack was so much fun and made us feel so comfortable and like ourselves in our shoot! He matched what I was looking for EXACTLY. We couldn’t be more happy with our in home photoshoot! He captured my partner and I as well as our kitten so well.

    M & Troy

  • Highly recommend! Jack is super great at what he does and keeps it light and fun while doing it - my wife and I have gone to him multiple times for different milestones in our life to be captured by Jack and they always deliver and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome - if you’re thinking of having someone take your photos this is your answer!

    Lexi & Sam

  • Jack made me feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera, which can be hard to do :) He helped guide me through poses and we had a great time. I love how the photos turned out!! So stunning.

    Heather

  • My photos are AMAZING, trying to hold myself back from posting immediately haha. These blew my expectations out of the water!

    Sophia

  • We had the best experience with Jack! He made us not only both feel so comfortable, but had an easy and seamless shoot! His photos turned out better than what we could’ve imagined. He was professional and precise. Got our edits back so quickly! Will definitely use him again and highly recommend him & his services!

    Chloe & Chris

  • I worked with Jack for engagement photos and had an amazing experience. He is responsive, punctual, and very talented. He was accommodating with scheduling and planning before the date and was on time and prepared for the shoot. He walked us through all the poses and had a ton of ideas. I couldn’t recommend him more!
