About Me
Hi, I’m Jesse, a passionate pet photographer and lifelong animal lover located in Lakeland Florida. My journey began with a senior dog photoshoot, where I saw how much meaning there is behind a photo. From that moment, I knew this was my calling. My goal is to capture the unique personalities and love they share with their humans—while living my dream of petting animals for a living!
Why Kapono Photos?
The name Kapono means “pure” or “righteous” in Hawaiian, and there is nothing more pure than the love, joy, and authenticity of animals. I believe in capturing the genuine spirit of pets—their unwavering loyalty, playful energy, and quiet moments of connection.
