Hi, I’m Jasmina

I’m a Michigan-based wedding, engagement, and elopement photographer capturing authentic moments that help couples relive their love story for a lifetime.

Born in Bosnia, a beautiful country in the Balkan region of Eastern Europe, I have a passion for travel, the outdoors, culture, and making genuine connections with the people around me. I will travel anywhere for a good photo — and good food — and am always ready for an adventure. Born in the middle of the Balkan war, I do not have many photos from my childhood up to the age of 3, when my family came to America. My parents only have one album of photos of themselves before my birth: my mother bravely hid a photo album in their apartment before being forced to flee. Years later, she was able to retrieve it and it is the most cherished item in our family. That’s why to me, photos of yourself and your loved ones celebrating life’s happiest moments are priceless.

I believe that the greatest gift we can give ourselves and others is to be present and live life fully. Because of this, my style is photojournalistic: I capture real moments of real people. I’m a self-taught photographer who has been capturing organic, romantic moments for adventurous couples wild at heart for over 8 years. As an experienced engagement, elopement, and wedding photographer, I am an expert chaos coordinator and keep what makes you unique in mind while I’m shooting. My wedding photography experience has taught me how to pivot according to agenda changes, weather, and more to create images that are an authentic representation of this chapter of your love story. Photos are not one-size-fits-all: think unique locations, poses and more!

Behind the Lens

get to know me

I re-watch and binge-watch shows over and over again before starting a new one! Some of my faves are Grey’s Anatomy, Gossip Girl, and New Girl!

I am a cappuccino connoisseur: I am forever in search of the perfect capp!

My ideal afternoon would be a spring day in Michigan, where I wake up and enjoy a cappuccino on the porch before heading off for a day outside with my husband riding bikes and catching the sunset.
