Hi, I'm Jesse Close, the photographer behind Up Close Captures.
As a husband, father, sports dad, I've spent countless hours on the sidelines and in the stands. I know the emotion behind game winning goals, proud parent smiles, and the quiet moments in between.
Those are the moments I am passionate about preserving.
My style is cinematic, yet authentic, and full of feeling. Whether I am freezing the intensity of an athlete in action, creating timeless family portraits, photographing your four-legged best friend, or documenting a community event, my goal is the same: tell your story in a way that feels real.
When you work with Up Close Captures, you're getting someone who understands the moments, because I'm living them too. I know how quickly they pass, and I believe the best photographs don't just show what happened...they bring you back to how it felt.
Let me help you capture the moments you never want to forget.
