Refined wedding photography with an editorial edge.
Honest moments, captured with intention.
Hi — I’m Jordon (with an “o”)
My name is Jordon Van Zante, a Midwest-based wedding photographer available worldwide. I document weddings with an honest, editorial approach: effortless portraits, real emotion and the in-between moments that end up meaning the most. My work is natural and quietly refined — created for couples who want their day captured beautifully as it unfolds. I’ll step in when you need guidance and fade into the background when the moment speaks for itself, creating a gallery that not only documents the day, but brings you right back to how it felt.
I take on a limited number of weddings each year so I can be fully present for every one.
