Choosing black was no accident—it’s timeless and focuses all attention on the person in front of the lens, capturing depth, emotion, and character. It was a […]

Happy Anniversary to Kimberly and Matt! It hard to believe their wedding was three years ago! I loved the blush undertone of Kimberly’s Hailey Paige gown. It perfectly complimented the rustic elegance of their venue, The Coach House at the Ryland Inn.

Jane Austen Loving, Coffee Drinker, with a Strong Desire to Create
I'm Jessica, and if you've made it this far, wow – I'm truly honored. Look, I know picking a photographer can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack, but here's the thing: it's more about finding someone whose vibe matches yours. Someone who gets you. And that's exactly what I aim to be.
Think of me not just as a photographer, but as a friend with a camera. A friend who's super excited to celebrate all your big (and small!) moments, from the I-dos to the just-because days. We'll laugh, maybe share a tear or two, and capture some beautiful memories along the way.
My camera? It's just a tool to bring out what's already there – your unique story, your spark. And don’t worry about the poses; I’m all about keeping it real and relaxed. Whether we’re chasing the sunset or catching that perfect family laugh, it’s all about having a good time.
If this sounds like what you are looking for, I’d be thrilled to hear from you! Send me a note, and let’s make some magic happen.
