ight! I couldn’t have asked anyone else to work with. She is the sweetest most laid back lady I’ve ever met. She got our pictures to us less than a month later!! We had a photographer lined up before her but he wasn’t what he were expecting to have on our special day and I’m so grateful we picked the right one for us!!

ot was fantastic, she was able to photograph our dog in a lot of our favorite pictures at the location of our choice. On our wedding day she was flexible with the adjustment to plans and made our photos everything we wanted. As someone who has a hard time finding a shot i think I look great in, she gave a crazy amount of beautiful options. Our photos are bright and vibrant, everything I wanted in my wedding photos. I can’t wait to continue our photography journey with Jess for future life events!

Jess is an amazing person who I have the privilege to know personally. But aside from her personality, I always loved her wedding photos! I’d see her post them throughout the years...
and hoped I would get married before the end of time so she could take mine! So thankful she did. She was reasonably priced and gave me alllll the pictures! Which was a TON of pictures to go through - a huge blessing to share with those who weren’t there! She also did so many candids that were gorgeous and she’s just so fun! We’ve used her for our newborn and family photos and maternity photos too, she does such a great job and is willing to travel too. She will work with you to ensure you get what you want with photos … and she even asked at my wedding if I wanted her to capture anything else before she left which was super thoughtful. She is quality and I’d 1000% recommend her for your wedding photo needs! WE LOVE JESS!

r and made a list of must have photos, but day of she made extra suggestions of things I forgot about so I really appreciate that. She also asked me day of at certain points if there were any others I wanted to do (which of course there was haha). She also got the photos to me very quickly afterwards, I don’t remember an exact timeframe, but that I was very impressed with how quickly they came back. You will not be disappointed! Jess is very hardworking, dedicated, and has such an artful eye!!

Jess did both our engagement and wedding pictures and far exceeded my expectations! She rolled with every idea we had for doing a vintage themed engagement shoot, helped coordinate...
locations, shared ideas with us, and made us feel comfortable and at ease with each pose. Her communication through the entire process also was helpful and putting me at ease and making me feel like my wants and ideas were heard and honored. She was attentive to every detail on our wedding day, and on top of her professionalism she’s the sweetest person and a fun ‘wedding guest’! I highly recommend her every chance I get.
