Who We Are
Who We Are
We are a husband and wife, documenting weddings through photography and audio stories.
Hello! We got married in 2008 and moved to Madison, WI from Colorado Springs, CO. We've been married almost 10 years but have been friends since high school and acquaintances since middle school. Together we have three wonderful girls who we are raising in a small home purchased for the land and neighbors surrounding us. Most days of the warmer months during downtime you can find Patricia tending to her garden and Jordan reading a good book or listening to a favorite podcast. We like to travel back to Colorado a couple times a year but have fallen in love with the midwest. The contrast between the two is refreshing and we couldn't imagine not having both Colorado and Wisconsin regularly in our lives.
Patricia started Rejoy Photography in January 2010. In 2014 Jordan began photographing weddings with Patricia and in 2015 started documenting couples stories and weddings through audio. During our off season at the end of 2015, we officially changed our name and brand in May of 2016 to better reflect this business we've created together. The largest compliment we hope for and receive when our couples view their image/hear their audio is that the emotions, feelings, and memories of their day come flooding back to them. Our hope is to always photograph or record weddings in a true and beautiful way.
If you missed a sampling of our photography or audio stories, be sure to check them out. Below is more information regarding what our couples are saying about our work and a little something Jordan wrote up about why we do what we do. We look forward to hearing from you!

What our couples are saying about us...
“Patricia and Jordan took time to get to know us as a couple and the vision of our wedding, and really captured the tone, spirit, and fun of the event through photography! ... Patricia really cares and is a beautiful visual artist. We are both so happy with our engagement and wedding photos!”
“Patricia and Jordan documented our wedding, and, in a word, they were amazing... it was as if they told the story of our day all over again with pictures.
The audio story that Jordan and Patricia put together was incredible, and we highly recommend it... They crafted an incredibly moving record of the most important moments of our life together so far. Every time we listen to it, we are reminded of how blessed we are, and how special life is. We could not be more pleased and recommend the audio story to everyone!”
“If you are looking for someone to capture those spontaneous/natural moments she is your person. Cant recommend her enough!”
“Jordan and Patricia were so fun to work with... My husband and I were having such a good time laughing and smiling at each other due to Jordan’s amazing prompts, and the photos turned out amazing with Patricia’s eye for composition and lighting! ”
“When my husband and I received our wedding photos from her, we were really impressed with her attention to the details of our day. An expression here, a tree there-all combined to create a wonderful visual story of our wedding day. We spent a couple of awe-struck hours looking at each one and soaking in the beauty. Truly beautiful and talented work. She is dedicated and it shows.”
our why
our why
You found the treasure. Your best friend who’s infinitely more than a friend. Your hearts joy.
And now, you’re ready to start the grand adventure of life together as a married couple!
We know where you’re going. Where you’ll end up. Two gray, weathered, elderly folks made tender from traveling marriage’s long road. Still in love. More deeply so than you ever imagined.
That’s what we want for you, many years into the future: the two of you holding wrinkled, joy filled hands near the end of your journey.
But getting there isn’t all warm quilts and fresh flowers. It will get dark, like a cold tunnel with no light. Life will happen to you. Sickness, fights, sadness-all of it.
But if you keep your hands gripped tightly around hope, holding fast to God, family, friends, and neighbors, you’ll stand a good chance.
We can help you start your journey well with authentic wedding photos and intimate audio stories. As Michael Howard of Musea says, “Photos are like fine wine. They only grow in value over time.” Wedding photos and audio stories are tools to help remind you of your commitment to each other and the love of your family and friends. These photos will be with you for the whole journey, hanging on the wall in your hallway or framed at your desk at the office. Audio lets the voices of your cherished people remain close year after year. Let us give you these gifts, it’s what we love to do.
You will make it to the end. We believe in you. Start with us.
