Los Angeles wedding photographer Jacquelyn Nytes of Gray Day Photo + Film captures candid, documentary-style weddings on digital, film, and Super 8 with an editorial edge.

our roots




I’m Jacquelyn, the photographer behind Gray Day Photo + Film, a Los Angeles & Midwest wedding photographer specializing in candid, documentary storytelling with an editorial touch. I work with couples who care less about perfection and more about presence- creating space for them to fully experience their wedding day as it unfolds.

My approach is rooted in a deep appreciation for healthy, supportive love. Growing up in a broken home and navigating unhealthy relationships shaped how I see connection today & it’s why I feel so strongly about documenting relationships that feel safe, intentional, and real.

As a Los Angeles candid wedding photographer and wedding film photographer, I bring more than just a camera to your day. I bring energy, empathy, and structure.

My work is grounded in a few core values: presence over perfection, connection first, and good energy always. I believe the best images come from trust, not forced moments & that the way your wedding feels matters just as much as how it looks.



If you’re looking for a Los Angeles wedding photographer who will not only document your day, but help you feel grounded, celebrated, and surrounded by positive energy- you’re in the right place.
