Now that the hard times are behind us, I am writing an honest, long review about my experience with Jekalo. The review is long, but in an effort to fully warn those about this business, I feel that a detailed post is the most beneficial way to help a vulnerable person avoid being jerked around by Jekalo. The pain that Jekalo caused me is indescribable-- pressuring my husband and I with a fake sale, tricking me with false photos, lying about having to bury her grandfather and taking a trip to Hawaii, trivializing my trauma and making herself the victim, ghosting me and my wedding coordinator, not equipping their business properly with an LLC--and most importantly, running away with my money and not showing up to shoot my wedding.

I had this day reserved 9 months ahead and paid in full and they just tossed us to their associates. Not only did they show up almost 45 minutes late, but then when they had to stay over there contracted time (because they were late to begin with) they held our photos and video hostage until we paid them more money. If they weren't late, they would have been out on time. So now I left on my honeymoon worried that I wouldn't get my pictures or video. Basically a total disaster.

The other- plain and simply, high caliber of professionalism, authenticity, and warmth that I've had the pleasure to experience after hiring KLK to work their magic for my engagement and wedding photos at The Ritz Carlton, Laguna Niguel, this past July. Firstly, my fiancé is not a fan of taking any kind of photos (downright hates the mere thought of it), but Paul changed that all for him during our short engagement and wedding photoshoot so that deserves an extra thank you, as I thought that was not possible. And to have many amazing photos to show for the least possible amount of time to shoot is nothing short of amazing, and illustrates the quality of output you would receive from KLK. Not only that, Kristi and Paul are the cutest, most down to earth and friendliest people you'll meet in the industry. We have only received our wedding teasers to date, and they were all outstanding. Can't wait to see the rest of the wedding images which KLK has communicated will complete in the next week or so - we also purchased a custom wedding photo book which we are very excited about! We can't recommend KLK enough and truly made the best choice picking them as our wedding photographers-- simply one of a kind!

From the moment you meet her, you feel safe, understood, and completely cared for. She pours her whole heart into her work, and it shows in every image. Her photos are not just stunning they are emotional, intimate, and alive. She captures love in its purest form. During seasons that were tender, emotional, and overwhelming, Nicole showed up with warmth, patience, and so much love for my family.

I will forever cherish the times she has helped my family and the way she has preserved our story.
