"Kade captured some absolutely stellar headshots for me. As a queer person and a creative myself, I wanted to find a photographer who understood my identity and how to photograph someone who isn't feminine nor masculine. They did an amazing job of suggesting gender-neutral, professional poses that were perfect for the type of portraits I needed. 100/10 would hire again."

Archiving queer history is an essential part of what I do. Are you organizing a protest or a zero-budget community-centered event or fundraiser? Depending on my availability, I may be willing to photograph your event for free!

“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Kade Joy Photography, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. As an LGBTQIA+ wedding photographer, Kade brings such an inclusive, thoughtful, and affirming approach to every part of the process, which makes a huge difference for couples and vendor teams alike. From a planner’s perspective, their calm presence and adaptability are truly invaluable. No matter what the day throws their way, they handle it with honesty, professionalism, and an ease that helps keep everyone grounded and focused. That kind of energy is rare and so appreciated on a wedding day. And of course, the photos speak for themselves. Kade has an incredible artistic eye and captures moments in a way that feels real, natural, and true to life. Their work doesn’t feel overly staged or forced, it genuinely reflects the energy, emotion, and story of the day. When couples look back on their gallery, they are getting an honest and beautiful reminder of their celebration.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer who is talented, inclusive, and an absolute joy to work with, Kade Joy Photography is it. I would recommend them again and again without hesitation.” - Emily Monus
