About me
Hi there, for those of you who don’t already know me, my name is
Jesse De Combes.
I was born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa but I have spent the past 5 years travelling and working abroad.
I pursued my career in photography at the age of 18 and within a year I was able to drastically grow my business as well as my personal skills. Everything I have learnt has been through trial and error, online courses and far too many YouTube videos. Since Covid-19 I've been given the gift of time, time to focus on my passion and time to reminisce.
Enjoying the journey and capturing memories has always been a passion for me. I personally take tons of pictures in my everyday life and I absolutely love looking back and reflecting on those beautiful moments. I've always loved the magic of looking back on photos and feeling the way you did in that moment all over again.
I aspire to not only capture beautiful photos but to create beautiful memories which surround those photos as well. I truly believe that photography is about more than just taking pictures, its a connection.
The most important part for me is to simply ENJOY THE JOURNEY!
QUIET THE MIND
and the soul will speak

Had such a wonderful experience with Jesse and got the most amazing photographs. There was a lot of creativity put into each shot making the photo bold & unique. Jesse has an eye for detail and makes sure every shot is taken with delicacy. The time spent shooting was pleasurable with inventiveness and flexibility. Definitely recommend Jesse D photography for any style or function!
