Bienvenue
Finding joy in color & light
Bienvenue!
In French, "Bienvenue" means "welcome," and we aim for you to feel just that after a session with us. Inheritance Photography by J&O was born out of our love for capturing the precious moments that light up our lives, and we would be honored to do the same for you. Our time together is designed to bring you joy, laughter, and peace, leaving you feeling uplifted and able to see the vibrancy you bring to the world. We primarily serve in Michiana (SW Michigan/NW Indiana) but are also available in Michigan, Chicago, and other destinations. Having photographed weddings in various locations throughout the United States and Europe. We are always excited to explore new places.

The "J"
in J&O
Hey friends, Jonathan here. As a Colorado native, I love being in God's creation, and have a fine appreciation for nature landscapes, especially mountains! The way to my heart is through deep conversation over a delicious beverage. And I'm always down to play games. But be warned, I'm no stranger to Dad jokes.
With the camera, I'm usually the guy behind the scenes, capturing your burst of laughter after your lover whispers in your ear, or other candid moments throughout your session or wedding day you probably didn't even notice.
When I'm not behind the camera, I can be found teaching and counseling people in the ways of Jesus Christ.

The "O"
in J&O
Hey I'm Olivia, a SW Michigan native, you can usually find me feeding someone. I'm a self-proclaimed foodie but anyone who knows me will probably agree. On the outside I look pretty put together but inside I'm probably jamming out to a Vertical Worship or Queen song.
I have a passion to make your photo sessions fun, peaceful, and as natural as possible. My hope is that you leave your session feeling more confident and encouraged in who you are and what you offer to this world. This passion comes from the grace I've found in Jesus's forgiveness of my past mistakes and his gift of showing me the value he not only sees in me but every part of his creation.
If I'm not taking photos, you can usually find me hosting old and new friends or enjoying the countryside or lake.
A bit about us and our adventure
When we met one of the main things that pulled us together was our heart for serving others. We both had a passion for championing people into their God-given gifts. What better way to do that than photography. Here are a few other things you may not know about us.

We love our little family and are thankful for our extended family too.
