Hey, I’m Jess!

I’ve been celebrating couples and families from behind my camera for 10 years now. I’ve found that I’m most fulfilled when creating honest connections with others. My all time favorite weddings and elopements tend to be ones where the couple welcomes me into not just their wedding but their crew. It feels like a much more honest way to capture the experience and emotions that come with it all. The better I know you and your people the easier it is for me to bring out your personalities in what I capture!

I’m a proud mama to two sweet girls. We just welcomed our newest daughter, Iris, this spring and what a journey that has been! I never knew a love like this could exist let alone grow with our newest. My daughter, Naomi, keeps me extremely active. I’m happiest doing anything with my girls. I enjoy hiking, paddle boarding, surf photography, shrimp tacos, americanos with cream, literally any baked good with cinnamon, snuggling with my doggo Murphy, and laughing with my husband Chris— who’s actually one of the funniest people I know. I have quite the travel bug and continue to fulfill it every chance I get! Before parenthood Chris and I enjoyed traveling to countries that are full strong culture and really diving into checking out the local way of life. Nothing like submerging yourself in a completely different environment where you can hardly communicate with everyone around you and navigating through the adventure. Makes for a good reset button! If you want a good story, ask me about our journey to Sapa, Vietnam or about the train we were on that derailed in Myanmar. :)

Check out my travel dates below, feel free to tag along to any of those locations while I’m there to avoid any travel fees! If you’re interested in a different location then heck yeah, reach out. I love to drive, fly, figure out public transportation systems wherever your heart desires!

Let's create some magic!
