About this vendor
Hey there - I'm Jackie, the owner of Ardensea, and I am so glad you stumbled on my The Knot page!
If you're looking for a wedding photography experience that puts your values, wants, and needs first - you're in the right place. I am passionate about shooting weddings and giving our couples back images that reflect emotional, authentic, and cherishable memories. My style has a documentary-style approach with a fine-art look like that of film. And although I take photography SUPER serious, I'm really just a down to earth, easygoing coffee-holic dog mama, and genuinely love connecting with my brides and grooms.
Ready to get hitched to your soulmate and have a blast while doing it? Shoot me a message!

YES, YES, YES!!!! Jackie is AMAZING!!! We are SO happy with our wedding day outcome. Jackie took such wonderful care of us from my first phone call with her to our engagement session and wedding day. You can tell how much she cares about every single one of her clients. I knew she was the one I wanted to photograph our wedding day after our consultation phone call. She was honest, considerate, and confident, and provided examples of her work at my venue (Crane Club) that showed me just how talented she was. The way she captures architecture, intimate moments between family/ and friends, her care to lighting...I could go on and on. I felt safe in her hands. Now after seeing our sneak peeks, I know just how right I was in my decision to go with Ardensea. We loved Jackie and Brittany SO much, and truly cannot recommend Jackie's business more.
I can't say enough wonderful things about Jackie and her team. We love our entire wedding and engagement album. The photos are gorgeous but what really set Ardensea apart was the personal aspect.
Jackie went the extra mile to make sure we were happy with our engagement photos. And on wedding day her whole team was very professional and unintrusive but warm, laid back and friendly. We're generally a little uncomfortable in front of cameras but Jackie erased all the awkwardness - she guided us and hyped us up without making us feel like clowns. Highly recommend!
We cannot say enough amazing things about Jackie and her team. From the moment we first zoomed with her we felt connected and comfortable with her. It was almost 9 months from the first zoom to our engagement pictures since we live out of town, but instantly Jackie helped us feel comfortable and confident while allowing us to be ourselves during pictures. The engagement session only increased our feelings that we made the correct choice for our wedding. Leading up to the wedding Jackie helped work with our planner to coordinate a timeline and make sure we listed out the pictures we wanted. Then on wedding day she and her team WERE AMAZING!!!!!!!! We felt so happy and excited they were around us. They worked effortlessly (actually they worked really hard but made it feel so smooth) to capture the day and didn’t make us feel rushed, wrong, worried, out of touch or concerned. Girls hair and make up even ran behind and the team didn’t make me feel worried as a bride. They knew exactly how to handle it and how to maximize time efficiently. They were the nicest most fun people to work with!!! Our sneak peaks came back 24 hours later and our families were blown away with the beauty of the pictures. Jackie and her team are amazing and we would pick them 1000times over again for capturing our wedding with video and photography.
The most perfect experience.
Jackie and Michael are extremely talented and very professional. They are super easy to work with and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. They are worth every penny!!!! They have a natural way of letting you enjoy your day all while capturing very special moments. Our wedding would not have been complete without them & I will forever love having these memories to share easily with family and friends. We were referred to them by our venue, and we are beyond happy we made the choice to use them for our engagement photos, wedding videography, and photography. We highly recommend their services and already can’t wait to use them again! - they are an AMAZING couple and communicate so perfect, the day was so smooth! 11/10 recommend!!!
There are no words to express our gratitude towards Jackie and her husband. We were SO lucky to have found her for our big day! She is so talented and such an amazing person. Her positive and vibrant spirit fills the room and creates a comfortable environment. She was my biggest hype woman and helped my husband stay calm when we had unexpected weather. I am beyond obsessed with my engagement and wedding photos and literally have them printed and displayed all over my house because I’m so in love with how they came out! I recommend her to everyone I know!! She was so organized and made sure she knew exactly what we wanted and also had such great ideas. Can’t speak more highly of her, she is the best photographer I have seen and worked with! Thank you, thank you Jackie for capturing our best day. 100% will be using her in the future for family photos. 😊
Jackie became part of our family by the time our wedding was over. Jackie is a wonderful person with a kind heart and a true gift for photography. She listens and asks you what you want. She was by far our most organized vendor. Your photographer is key to your day and I stress to all couples getting married that you have to have the right fit. Her work speaks for itself. We will be using Jackie for all of our photography needs. I can’t wait to see how she grows her business further in the coming years.
Jackie is the best photographer! Not only does she take incredible photos, she also becomes your friend the second you meet her. She makes being in front of a camera so easy and you can tell how much she truly loves what she does. I will now be using her for all my photo needs.
Where to even begin! We’ve used Jackie for our maternity, family, and now our wedding photos. Jackie is the absolute best around! Not only does she get the most perfect photos but she makes you feel beyond comfortable. Thank you for saving these once in a lifetime memories in the most beautiful way 🤍🤍
Jackie is absolutely wonderful! Our day of timeline kept getting changed and Jackie was so great and easy to work with and even worked with my coordinator to make sure the day off went smoothly. On top of that, our pictures turned out more beautiful than I could have imagined. Jackie is such a sweet soul and an amazing photographer!
Jackie was AMAZING! Extremely communicative, professional, & pictures came out BOMB. She knew all the right shots to take and really captures essential moments of our special day. I highly recommend :)
Hiring Jackie as our Wedding Photographer was one of the best decisions that I have ever made!
As a Planner and H&MU Artist in the Wedding industry, I am BEYOND particular when it comes to working with Wedding vendors. With that said, hiring Jackie to photograph my own wedding was an easy call.
We have worked together a few times, on a number of projects and I have always loved her! She's punctual (very important on Wedding Day) creative, and kind. Her happy/passionate energy is contagious when she is around her couples and her work is always impressive!! Again, I love this girl. Hire her. You will too.
Love working alongside Jackie! She is beyond talented, just love her style. She is creative, professional and kind. She will absolutely capture “that moment” for memories to last a lifetime.
Jackie was amazing! Super responsive, attentive to our needs, and just a wonderful vendor to work with. She did our engagement and wedding photos and we love them so much! She helped us and she was so sweet, going above and beyond for us out of the kindness of her heart and to ensure we were happy. We got to know her during the process and became friends!
This photographer is amazing! Her photos have an ethereal style and they are bright and soft all at the same time. She has a wonderful way of photoshopping so no one can tell. I didnt want to worry about my arm looking fat because it was a bad angle. Everything was so organic! On top of it, she's soooo nice! Which is important when its one of the most stressful days of your life. Choose Ardensea!
My wedding has not happened yet but from what I see in photos and meeting with Jackie for a wonderful tea and ideas for my day, I’m in love. Can’t wait to share my beautiful day photos ❤️ .... to be continued
