Denver Branding & Events Photographer

A portrait of Kalen, the owner of Kalen Jesse photography

As a startup consultant, I work closely with budding entrepreneurs + established businesses to articulate a visual identity based on the origin story, 'why', target market, and unique value proposition. 

I then curate a shot list and 'on-set' game plan (think of it as a production) to create your own tailored visual content library for social media, websites, or print. With a long-term passion and eye for photojournalism, my commercial work takes a storytelling approach.

Supporting fellow entrepreneurs is my LIFE PASSION. I assure you, I will dive deeply into your brand and co-create powerful images with you as if they were my own.

As an entrepreneur, Angel Investor, MBA graduate, 10+ years of startup consulting and directing Denver's Entrepreneurship Hub and pillars of Denver Startup Week, I'm dedicated to empowering doers.

I have personally worked with over 5200+ businesses.  I take pride in capturing the raw beauty of your work, your brand, and your unique story. A good business is driven by good people. Let's work together to capture the essence of your brand and tell your unique story.
