Who We Are
We are a family-owned photography team, operated among friends.
We are Jasmin and Ryan, madly in love and co-founders of Monocle Project. We have partnered with friends to create a team of creatives we trust and value to make your project's story a success.
With a joy for people and a collaborative edge, we aim to create a full experience for our clients that begins the moment we meet. Our whole-hearted standards are to surpass your expectations, capture glorious moments, and create astonishing imagery.
We create for our clients with an effective vision and a versatility for documenting the subtle details while emphasizing the glory of your best moments — both personal and professional.

Why us
Trusted in our industry for over eleven years
Communication
“From start to finish their communication was fabulous. Jasmin was able to answer all our questions and made us feel at ease, especially since we were planning our big day from across the globe! Jasmin took the time to answer every email with care and patience and was able to offer us expert advice on locations, timeline of photos etc. Ryan was so much fun and made us feel very comfortable! It was like hanging out with an old friend and it made the whole experience very memorable rather than just another process of the day.”
Documentary style
“Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being you! You were so easy to work with. Chris and I, and our guests, were not even aware we were being photographed which captured such beautiful emotions. We were definitely blessed to have found you guys.”
Editorial & posing skills
“Jasmin made us feel so comfortable and gave us the space to be silly, kiss our hearts out and laugh until our cheeks hurt. Jasmin captured our love, personalities and excitement for being together and I honestly can't stop looking at the pictures, showing them to friends and now working on putting together a wedding album! I am forever grateful that I found Monocle Project, we now have pictures of our love that will last forever!”
