5 minutes with... Dallas wedding photographer Jayce Keil

It was during a year-long backpacking journey through Europe and Southeast Asia, that husband and wife team Dallas wedding photographer JAYCE KEIL PHOTOGRAPHY AND CINEMATOGRAPHY developed a deep passion for photography and videography. “Discovering the intrinsic value and beauty in capturing moments and memories became a profound experience for us. The ability to immortalise these moments, allowing us to revisit and relive them in the future, became something we truly cherished.

As a husband-and-wife wedding team, we go beyond traditional photography and videography; we’re storytellers, weaving the tale of your love in stunning destinations. Our synergy captures not just moments, but the essence of your love story, transcending mere visuals. We don’t just take pictures and videos; we create an unforgettable luxury experience. From our initial connection, we prioritise understanding your dreams and desires, curating a visual masterpiece that mirrors your vision and surpasses expectations. Every frame and scene is a testament to our commitment to your love story. Allow us to be your visual storytellers, preserving your journey and destination with the artistry and luxury you deserve. Experience the world through the lens of your love with us in all its splendour.

Now, our desire is to extend this enriching experience to others, providing them with the opportunity to create lasting memories through the lens of our cameras.“

TELL US A BIT ABOUT YOUR PATH TO GET THERE. As the onset of Covid unfolded, Brian and I found ourselves in Australia. Regrettably, the pandemic forced us into a geographical separation–I had to return to the States, while Brian headed back to Ireland. Despite the physical distance, both of us carried our newfound passions with us.

Upon my return to the States, I channeled our shared enthusiasm into establishing our wedding business. Shortly thereafter, Brian flew to America to join me. In the union of our lives, we not only tied the knot but also expanded our business offerings by incorporating videography. Today, we successfully run our wedding business together, blending our love for each other with our shared creative pursuits.

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE? We define our style as a blend of editorial, fine art and photojournalistic approaches.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT WEDDINGS? Creating unforgettable memories for the couple to relive for years to come and to be able to share with their loved ones. We also love getting to meet our couples it is always so nice to finally meet after many months of email and phone calls.

SHARE YOUR FAVOURITE IMAGE WITH US AND TELL US WHY. We both love this image below so much as we created art in front of art, her posing as well I really love as it looks so effortless yet elegant at the same time. This entire shoot was just an amazing day at Luttrellstown Castle in Dublin Ireland. It was one of those days that reminded us so much of why we love what we do.

CAN YOU RECALL YOUR FAVOURITE WEDDING EXPERIENCE? Neither Brian or I have a particular favourite experience; rather our favourite part of each wedding is capturing bridal portraits. The creative freedom we have to pose the bride and truly make her look astonishing is what we love most. It’s especially rewarding when a bride is initially uncertain but is then blown away when she sees the preview on the back of the camera.

ASIDE FROM FAMILY & FRIENDS, THREE THINGS YOU CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT? Travel, good food and great wine.

WHERE WOULD WE FIND YOU ON A SUNDAY MORNING? Editing your next day sneak peeks of course!

HOW WOULD YOU SPEND YOUR IDEAL DAY OFF? I would be skiing in the mountains of Telluride CO, where I thought ski school before becoming a wedding photographer and Brian would be surfing on a beach in Tramore, Ireland where he managed a surf school before moving to the States!
