5 stars are not enough to express how great Jessie is. Her ability to take what is given to her and turn it into magic is second to none. She has a vision and is able to execute it...
perfectly. JGE Photos is the only recommendation for your photography needs.
My husband and I highly recommend booking Jessie for your wedding photography!! We had the pleasure of working with her last weekend, and she was everything we could have hoped for...
and more. From our initial booking, I could tell Jessie was personable, but on the big day, it truly felt like I had a close friend photographing us.
She went above and beyond in ways we never expected—helping me with my dress, adjusting it to sit just right, offering advice on which earrings would look best, and even buttoning my dress when no one else could figure it out! It's those thoughtful, little touches that solidified for me that we chose the right photographer. Jessie didn’t just take photos—she took care of me in so many ways, making sure everything was perfect for our special day.
Jessie’s level of vision is truly unmatched. She can look at an empty room and find beauty in it, capturing the most incredible, magazine-worthy shots in places we wouldn’t have even thought to look. Watching her work felt like watching magic unfold—her creativity and attention to detail are amazing. We can't wait to see how the photos turned out, because we know they will be stunning.
Not only did Jessie take care of me and my immediate family, but she also went above and beyond for our guests. She took the time to show them some of the cute candid shots she had captured, making everyone feel involved and special.
If you're looking for a wedding photographer who is not only incredibly talented but also warm, thoughtful, and down-to-earth, look no further—Jessie is the one! We can't recommend her enough!
There’s so many things that I could say about Jessie. Not only is she talented but the second you meet her you feel as if you knew her your whole life. I couldn’t have dreamt of be...
tter engagement photos. They are pictures and memories that I will love and cherish throughout my whole life. Nobody has a vision like Jessie, the way she captures moments is truly amazing. She is a kind, talented, funny, and inspirational person. I am so excited for her to take my wedding photos. I wouldn’t trust anyone else but her to capture such an important and special day!
My fiance and I did our engagement shoot with Jessie, and were completely blown away by how beautiful the photos came! We were both so nervous since we’d never had professional pho...
tos taken before, but Jessie made it feel completely natural. It felt like we were hanging out with a friend the whole time. Her attention to detail is unmatched. We are using her for our wedding in September and I’m SO excited to get to work with her again. She is extremely kind, communicative, and patient with all my questions. Jessie is exactly the person who you’d want next to you for any life event, and the only person I’d trust to capture these moments!
Jessie is EXACTLY who you should hire to shoot your engagement, wedding, and frankly any kind of special event in your life!! My fiancé and I were fortunate enough to work with JGE...
Photos on our engagement photos and they are pictures I will cherish for a lifetime. It was a cloudy, overcast day (something I was worried about), but Jessie captured these incredibly timeless, almost cinematic shots that literally looked like they were stills from a romcom! We used them for our Save The Dates, they've been my phone background since we got them back, and I plan on blowing some of them up and framing/hanging them because they're truly art. Not only that - Jessie is the kindest, most creative brilliant soul. She CARES and it shows. We look forward to not only using JGE Photos again but mostly look forward to having Jessie in our lives! We feel so fortunate to have met her.
When I first came across Jessie’s page, I knew she was the photographer for us. From our engagement party, bridal shower, & courthouse ceremony all the way to our Bahamas destinati...
on wedding, JGE PHOTOS CAME THROUGH AND ABSOLUTELY DELIVERED. There’s a reason Jessie continuously earned our business. Besides the photos turning out absolutely beautiful, Jessie made me and my husband comfortable throughout our several shoots, helped pose us, made it fun and enjoyable and ALSO dealt with a cranky, hungover bride on wedding day with grace. I cannot thank Jessie enough for her exceptional work and professionalism over the past year and a half. If you’re thinking of going with JGE, think no more! You will not regret booking with Jessie!!!
Jessie is the definition of professional. There’s a reason why she’s been my entire family’s photographer for the last few years.
My sister’s wedding photos were nothing short of ...
beautiful. My professional press photo’s for my music career were everything I could’ve imagined and then some! This is all comes from passion and loving what you do, & Jessie shows that while working on any kind of shoot I’ve hired her for.
My wedding isn’t for another few months, but my fiancé & I already cannot wait to see what the outcome of our future photos will look like. With Jessie behind the lens, it’s guaranteed that it’ll be everything we wanted. I know I can rely on her for quality & stunning content.
It’s safe to say that I highly recommend Jessie to capture the moments of any special occasion you may have coming up in your life. She’s not only a great photographer, she’s an even better person too.
Jessie was everything we were looking for in a photographer. We’re not big picture people so having eyes on us for our elopement was definitely out of our comfort zone. She quickly...
adjusted to our needs without judgement and made the whole process feel natural. Super thankful for her- couldn’t have asked for better!
Jessie is incredible. Her eye for detail and ability to execute on all of my photo dreams has truly been such a magical experience and I absolutely adore and cherish those photos. ...
My first time working with her was for our at home engagement session and I was so behind happy with how stunning they turned out! I of course hired her again because I was over the moon for my engagement photos so I hired her for my bridal shower and more recently my baby announcement photos. She’s an excellent communicator, so fun to work with, and I just totally trust that she will capture everything and more. She doesn’t miss a thing! Don’t hesitate to hire her- she has an amazing ability to just infuse romance, timeless beauty, and capture incredibly candid and perfect moments. So grateful to have been introduced to her by a friend and I can’t wait to hire her again in the future!
My fiancé and I cannot say enough about Jessie! We can be awkward behind the camera but Jessie immediately made us feel at ease and comfortable within minutes of shooting. When I f...
irst came across Jessie’s Instagram account, I knew I HAD to book with her - and I’m so happy we did! Jessie is professional, yet fun, and a true visionary! If you have the opportunity to work with Jessie, do it! I promise you will not regret it!
Jessie was amazing to work with from the start. Her talent goes beyond and I’m happy to be able to call her one of my friends. She captures moments not photos. I truly don’t think ...
anyone else could’ve captured the details/ aesthetic I always dreamed of. Shout out to Kristen for being the sweetest and most patient with rowdy groomsmen. Love you ladies, see you in vogue
Jessie is the absolute best! My husband and I had an amazing time during our wedding shoot. She made us feel so comfortable! Our pictures are stunning.
Jessie was super professional and wonderful!! You can see how passionate and dedicated she is to make her clients happy. I can’t stop looking at my bridal shower photos!! They cam...
e out soo perfect :)
Jessie was an amazing photographer from start to finish! She was attentive in every way from each detail in the planning phases and assisted with every question along the way. She ...
had a great response time and a great high energy personality which is so helpful for camera shy people. She helped us think outside of the box during our shoot for other locations and was super creative when our original location was closed down. I would highly recommend working with her. She makes you comfortable and feel in a space where it doesn’t feel like she is working but truly cares about you and how your images come to life through her vision. If you’re looking for a creative, personable, talented photographer who truly understands your version and assists in making it come to life. Jessie is your girl!
Jessie is beyond her years! She is so talented and such a good vibe. She made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable for our engagement shoot and we had such a fun time. She had the b...

etting to know each other. Our engagement shoot was SO much fun, a day I’ll never forget! Jess’s eye for where and when and how to capture a moment in a photo was beyond perfect. You can totally feel and see the love for what she does. I seriously can’t wait to see how her talent and passion transcend into our photos!

And in the day, we were totally impressed by her wonderfully calm and friendly energy. She made sure to take each photo from several angles to ensure getting great pics. We loved the way she paid attention to every detail. We felt like she could be part of our family. And then…when the “sneak peeks” started rolling in!!! WOW! To say we were impressed is not enough. The way each photo has been edited to perfection is amazing. These are pictures that will surely be treasured for a lifetime, that will help remind us of this very special day.

I was lucky enough to have Jessie capture the special moments of my baby shower. Not only is she professional and patient - but talented too! My whole family was talking about her ...

I never thought of myself as photogenic but Jessie has a true gift of capturing your true essence! I was in disbelief of how I loved myself in every photo. She captures the beauty ...
other people see in you and makes it difficult for you to criticize yourself in her photos. I’ve had a few sessions with Jessie and I can’t think of working with anyone else. Like hanging with a friend who just keeps hyping you up! Never an awkward moment even if you usually feel awkward in front of a camera.
Jessie is truly the epitome of an artist. One of the kindest, most artistic souls I have ever met.

Don’t think twice about it, just book her!!! You’ll be so happy that you did. :)
