Make Your Break with Jai Long
I’ve always been drawn to people. Not in a big, performative way, but in the quiet shifts that happen when no one is trying. A look exchanged across the room. A laugh that catches someone off guard. The way a parent reaches for their child without thinking. That’s what holds my attention, and that’s what I’m looking for when I photograph a wedding.
My work has taken me to celebrations across Canada, Mexico, and Europe, from multi-day wedding weekends to intimate gatherings close to home. Every place is different, but my approach stays the same. I slow things down, observe carefully, and photograph what unfolds with intention and restraint.
Outside of weddings, life is anchored at home with my husband, our two daughters, and our bulldog, Marshall. I love exploring new cities, getting lost in bookstores, and driving without a destination, good music on, nowhere particular to be.
The stories that move me most are the ones that feel lived in. Honest, imperfect, and shaped by real connection.
iI. Philosophy
iII. Experience
Your wedding is not a timeline to be managed. It’s an experience shaped by atmosphere, emotion, and the people who surround you.
My work blends editorial composition with intuitive storytelling. I guide when it brings ease and clarity, and step back when a moment needs space to breathe. What I’m creating is not a collection of highlights, but a body of work that reflects how the day felt as it unfolded.
The photographs that matter most are the ones that carry you back. Into the warmth of the room. The movement of the evening. The feeling of being there.
That feeling-first approach shapes everything I create.
With over a decade of experience, I bring a calm, steady presence to wedding days and a deep sensitivity to people and place.
Whether I’m documenting a wedding weekend in Italy or an intimate ceremony closer to home, my process is grounded and intentional.
I pay close attention to the moments that often pass quietly. The way light shifts across a space. The way your friends pull you into a hug. The moment your shoulders finally soften.
That’s where the story lives. And that’s the part worth preserving.
Preserving the way your day feels – not just what it looks like.
