Recent weddings.
Same eye, on moving picture.
JOPFilms is the cinematography arm of the studio. Director-led wedding films, prewedding reels, branded films. Same crew. Same standard. Most of our couples book photo and film together — one team, one creative direction, one delivery.
Run by Jide Odukoya.Driven by memory.
We don’t take pictures of weddings. We take pictures of the people you love, on the day you’ll need to remember them most.
What they’ve said.
“They didn’t just photograph our wedding — they understood what the day meant to our families. Every frame feels like a memory we can hold.”
“Jide flew to England for our prewedding and made it feel like a film set. The photographs are the kind we’ll show our daughter one day.”
“I wanted my wedding shot entirely in black and white. JOPStudios was the only team that didn’t flinch — they delivered a story that feels like an heirloom.”
“They directed without ever making the day feel directed. Our family kept asking who the photographers were — they thought they were guests.”
“The team is a film crew disguised as photographers. Every frame is composed. We didn’t pose — we lived, and they caught it.”
“Years later we still pull up these photographs and weep. Money well spent doesn’t describe it — these are family heirlooms now.”

The luxury weddingpricing guide.
A 6-page editorial guide on what luxury wedding photography & cinematography actually costs in 2026 — collection ranges, what drives the spend, and the questions to ask before you sign anything. Direct, no marketing fluff.
Every question.Honest answers.
How quickly will you reply to my inquiry?+
Within 24 hours on weekdays. If Jide is shooting a wedding, you may hear from a team member first to set up the call. Either way, every inquiry is read by a real human.
Do you photograph traditional weddings?+
Yes. Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Edo, and Bini ceremonies are a core part of our portfolio, alongside Indian, Persian, and most other cultural traditions. Cross-cultural and traditional weddings are some of the work we love most.
How far in advance should we book?+
Most flagship dates book 12-18 months out. We take a small number of weddings each year, so Saturdays in May through October close fast. If your date is less than six months away, write to us directly. Sometimes a slot opens.
What does a typical consultation cover?+
Thirty minutes. We talk about your wedding day, the location, the family dynamic, and the kind of imagery that matters to you. We will be honest about whether we are the right fit. No presentation deck, no pressure.
What happens after the consultation?+
Within 48 hours you receive a tailored proposal: the collection that fits your day, a sample contract, and a deposit link. The deposit secures the date. We hold no date without it.
How much detail should I share in the inquiry form?+
As much as feels natural. Brides who fill out the inquiry form in detail are 4x more likely to book because the call can be honest from minute one. Even a few sentences about the venue and the mood you are after helps a lot.
What happens after I send my inquiry?+
Jide reads every inquiry. Within 24 hours on weekdays you will hear back with either a consultation invite, a few clarifying questions, or an honest note that we are not the right fit. We do not send templated auto-replies.
How many photos do we receive?+
Usually 600 to 1,200 finished images, depending on coverage hours and what unfolded on the day. We do not release every frame we shot. Only the ones that survive the edit. The number is a byproduct, not a target.
Do you also film the wedding?+
Yes, through JOPFilms, our cinematography arm. Most couples book photography and film together. Our typical $15,000-$25,000 collection includes both, plus a keepsake film cut by our senior editor. Photo-only is possible if film is not a priority.
What is your editing style?+
Editorial. Faithful to the actual light of the day. We do not over-process, chase Instagram trends, or apply presets that look dated in five years. The goal is a frame that holds up when your daughter is looking at it in 2055.
Do you travel internationally?+
Yes. We have shot weddings in over 15 countries. Destination weddings are quoted separately and travel-inclusive; we cover our own logistics so you do not have to think about it.
How long until we get our photos back?+
A select gallery of about 50 of the strongest frames within 7-10 days of the wedding so you have something to share. The full edited gallery within 6-8 weeks. Films take longer: usually 10-12 weeks for the keepsake edit.
Some weddings are documented.A few are immortalized.
Thirty minutes. By video call or in our Toronto studio. No presentation deck — just a real conversation about whether we’re the right fit for your day.
