Question 1

What makes me an inclusive photographer?

Accepted Answer

What makes me an inclusive photographer is simple. I celebrate all love and proudly serve the San Diego and Southern California LGBTQ+ community, creating a safe space where every couple and every identity feels seen, respected, and valued. As an queer photographer, I understand how important it is to work with someone who truly gets you.

Accessibly needs are important to me on a personal level.  Growing up with a sister with special needs, I am aware of and sensitive to the needs of people with disabilities. I am also experienced with neurodivergent clients, offering calm, flexible sessions that reduce the feeling of being overwhelmed.

I also hold a Certified Professional in Sensory Considerations in Photography with Vulnerable Adults credential, reflecting specialized training in creating safe, supportive environments for clients with complex sensory or emotional needs. This certification covers trauma-informed communication practices — including using open-ended questions about comfort levels — and a commitment to prioritizing each participant's experience.  I am  trained to recognize early signs of distress and will thoughtfully pause or end a session when needed to protect the wellbeing of every client.

Question 4

When is it good to have two photographers for a wedding or event?

Accepted Answer

For full wedding days or events with 101 guests or more, you will get two photographers are recommended. We believe that capturing all of your wedding day is best with two photographers since there are moments that are simultaneously taking place.

If you have less than 100 guests, then one photographer can wrk to capture all of the events, guests and moments. If you have any questions, please email photo@jackiehan.com
