The best photos happen when you forget you’re being photographed!

I’ll create space for you to relax, move, laugh, and just be yourselves. Every couple is different — your rhythm, your energy, your inside jokes — and that’s what I’m paying attention to.

I’m here for the honest, unfiltered moments.

Whether your day feels windswept and wild or slow and intimate, I want you fully in it — not posing your way through it. The goal isn’t perfection. It’s presence.

I document your day in a way that feels natural, artful, and true — so years from now, you won’t just see the moment… you’ll be able to feel it all again.

 

“Let's just start by saying I'm a professional writer and even I have trouble summoning the words to properly capture how stunning, emotive, and creative Jess's work is. She was a 'surprise' photographer (my boyfriend arranged to have her present for his proposal!) and Jess was that ideal blend of personable and professional—she's remarkably talented *and also* a true delight to be around. Both my fiance and I aren't all that natural in front of a camera (that's code for awkward), but Jess had a way of capturing us in our element and also setting up poses and moments that made for incredible photographs. She sent us a sneak preview a few days later (did I refresh my email constantly during that time? YES) which was a TREAT and also absolutely blew me away with how she captured our special day. I was telling my fiance the other day that what I was most impressed about Jess is that she has an eye for structure and scenery BUT ALSO an eye for emotion and people. Does it get any better than that? We stare at our engagement photos constantly and if I had my way I'd wallpaper my entire home with them.”


“Quality, Amazing, and Creative. You have a way with not only capturing special moments, but the feelings and emotions with it! Your photos are AMAZING and I can feel the love through them.”


“Relaxed, detailed, chic. By the end of your session with Jess you will feel like she has been a life long friend. Jess's easy-going nature makes being in front of the camera feel effortless and carefree. Her artistic vision is one of a kind. Jess takes the time to capture all of the little moments that make your celebration special. You will not be disappointed.”
