Jessica Zais Photography is a Kelowna wedding photographer serving couples across the Okanagan and elsewhere in British Columbia. The confirmed official website presents Jessica Zais as a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Kelowna, with dedicated services for weddings, elopements and engagements. This current domain matches the complete business name and contains substantial wedding-specific information.

Jessica describes her work as genuine, connected and joyful, with the wedding pricing page also using the words romantic and playful. Her documented approach combines natural light, candid observation and active prompts intended to help couples look comfortable rather than leave them without direction. Wedding packages currently begin at $3,900, although couples need to request the complete collection details and confirm availability for their date. Last reviewed: August 8, 2026.

Current identity and evidence status

Jessica Zais Photography is active on a current first-party website at jessicazais.com. The site identifies Jessica by name, places the business in Kelowna and provides wedding galleries, pricing information, recent portfolio posts and a working enquiry form. It therefore supplies a substantially stronger identity match than the website attached to the legacy listing.

The former jessicanicolestudio.com address now belongs to an unrelated Vernon hair-extension and business-coaching studio operated by Jessica Johnson. It should not be used as the photography business’s website. The legacy street address and telephone number could not be verified on Jessica Zais Photography’s current official pages, so they have not been republished here.

Services and specialization

The official service menu covers weddings, elopements, engagements and couples’ sessions. Jessica also photographs families and branding projects, but this profile concentrates on her wedding work. Her site describes a natural-light approach that preserves the colours of the setting and combines candid moments with guided portraits.

Wedding packages include a pre-wedding consultation, personalized suggestions for off-site portrait locations, a customized photography timeline, edited high-resolution files and an online gallery for downloading and sharing. Many images are also supplied in black and white. An engagement session is included with the top three wedding packages rather than every collection.

Online gallery and optional gallery products

Service area and who it may suit

Jessica is based in Kelowna and states that Jessica Zais Photography serves the Okanagan Valley and beyond. Travel within the Okanagan is included in wedding packages. Work elsewhere in British Columbia and destination coverage are possible, but accommodation or other travel costs may need to be added.

The documented style may suit couples who want expressive, true-colour photographs and candid interactions while still receiving direction during portraits. Her site also explicitly identifies the business as 2SLGBTQI+ inclusive. Couples planning a winery, orchard, lakeside or mountain setting can review Jessica’s portfolio and location resources to assess how her natural-light work translates to a comparable venue.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

Documented experience is a meaningful feature: Jessica states that she has operated her photography business full-time for more than 15 years and has photographed well over 200 Okanagan weddings. Package features also extend beyond event-day coverage to consultation, timeline preparation, location suggestions and delivery through a personal online gallery.

There are practical details that remain unpublished or collection-dependent. Jessica normally photographs weddings and elopements alone; a second photographer can be added for an extra fee. The public page gives a starting price but not the complete collection-by-collection hours, image counts, tax treatment, deposit, cancellation terms or standard delivery schedule. No public postal address or direct telephone number was found on the reviewed official pages.

Confirmed: more than 15 years in full-time photography
Confirmed: well over 200 Okanagan weddings photographed
Confirmed: Okanagan travel included in wedding packages
Limitation: second-photographer coverage costs extra
Limitation: full package and contract terms require an enquiry

Pricing

Jessica Zais Photography currently publishes the statement “Weddings Begin At: $3900.” The page does not label the currency or specify whether tax is included, so couples should confirm both points before comparing quotations. The published package inclusions are a pre-wedding consultation, location suggestions, a customized timeline, local vendor recommendations, edited high-resolution images, an online gallery and travel within the Okanagan.

The public site does not provide enough detail to calculate the final cost for a particular wedding. Coverage duration, additional hours, a second photographer, travel beyond the Okanagan, albums and other products may affect the quotation. Couples should request the current pricing guide and a written proposal for their date, venue and guest count.

Contact and booking

Enquiries should be made through the contact form on the confirmed official website. The form requests names, email address, optional phone number, wedding date, venue, guest count and information about the couple. The site explains that a confirmation pop-up and email should appear after a successful submission.

Jessica describes the next stage as a conversation about the couple’s plans and whether the working relationship is a suitable fit. Once booked, her planning support can include portrait-location advice and a customized photography timeline. Because the official site does not publish a business telephone number or complete postal address, the online form is the verified contact route.

What couples should confirm

Before signing, ask for a collection that identifies all deliverables and costs in writing. This is particularly important when comparing Jessica’s starting price with photographers whose quotations cover different numbers of hours or photographers.

Couples should also show Jessica their venue schedule and priorities. That provides the context needed to decide whether solo coverage is sufficient, whether an engagement session is included and how much travel or portrait time should be built into the day.

Availability for the wedding date and venue
Coverage hours, overtime rate and expected image range
Whether the quoted amount is in Canadian dollars and whether tax is additional
Deposit, payment schedule, cancellation and postponement terms
Delivery timeline, backup practices and gallery access period
Whether an engagement session is included in the selected collection
Cost and coverage period for a second photographer
Travel or accommodation charges outside the Okanagan
