Meet Your filmmakers
No one wants strangers at their wedding.
KEJ's story began in the expansive world of live production, where Kaleb and Elaine Jiminez first met as audio engineers in large-scale event production, design, and management. After marrying in 2012, the journey took an unexpected turn when a friend recognized an innate talent for storytelling and asked us to film their wedding. The experience ignited a passion, and in 2015, KEJ was born. Within a year, demand soared, transforming this creative pursuit into a thriving full-time career.
Our love story, like every marriage, has been a beautiful blend of joy and challenge—a dance of both the light and burdensome. We understand that marriage is a journey of unfolding beauty—of choosing each other every day through the laughter, tears, quiet moments and stormy ones. This shared experience of love and resilience shapes the way we see every wedding we document.
Our work is defined by a deeply personal, cinematic approach, crafting heirloom films that families cherish for generations. We believe that every couple’s love story is already written in the moments they share before the wedding day. Our job is not to create a story, but to uncover the one that’s already unfolding. We capture the way your love looks when you think no one’s watching. By observing and listening, we capture the essence of your relationship in a way that feels completely natural and true to you.
This perspective allows us to create a film that doesn’t just document your wedding—it reflects the love that has been growing between you through time. It’s about finding the heart of your story and showcasing it in a way that feels personal, real, and emotionally resonant. For you and your legacy.

Elaine's Favorite...
As they say “Lubbock or leave it,” Kaleb chose the latter. Embarking on a new chapter in Orlando, FL at the tender age of 17, this budding musician discovered a passion for making music sound beautiful that rivaled his love for playing it. Kaleb’s career defies a singular path, having had the privilege of collaborating with renowned artists such as Garth Brooks, Tricia Yearwood, Lady A, Willie Nelson, Marcus Miller, David Sanborn, Pink, and many more. His professional journey has taken him to international stages, including the MTV European Music Awards in Belfast and a USO Tour through the Middle East and Africa.
The secret to Kaleb’s impressive accomplishments in such a short time lies in his exceptional work ethic and unwavering optimism. Kaleb serves as the adventurous spirit within KEJ, embodying the role of a creative director who constantly seeks new avenues of storytelling. A true friend and ally, he is the motivating force that propels individuals toward their greatness. Kaleb is known for pushing others towards their full potential, even at the expense of his own aspirations.

The KEJ film I’ve chosen is "An Epic European Road Trip," capturing a motorhome adventure from a few summers ago. My mom reminded me of how I always said I was meant to be a traveler. Whether through my touring career or as a filmmaker, that dream has stayed with me. It's clear now that I was born to both create and explore the world.
