Meet The Founder
My name is Jonathan Kalala, founder, CEO, and lead creative of Called & Captured. I am a college graduate and currently work as an engineer, a background that strongly influences how I approach photography—through structure, preparation, and attention to detail.
I believe a refined creative experience is built on clear systems, thoughtful planning, and calm execution. This mindset allows every session to feel organized yet effortless, ensuring clients feel confident, comfortable, and fully present.
Called & Captured is supported by a curated team of 10 professionals, including photographers, creative leads, editors, coordinators, and operational support staff.
