You’re putting in so much work to make sure every detail is just right. You’re laying the groundwork for beautiful, lifelong memories. I am, too. From the moment you inquire until your wedding photos are framed, I approach this experience as if I'm in your shoes & care for your memories as if they were my own! After all, with a day this special, how could I not?
LET’S CELEBRATE TOGETHER
This love & these photographs
are forever yours to keep
My style of photography is true-to-life…
Moments where you are exchanging vows or singing the night away will look just as you remember it — as if they’d been captured with the blink of your eyes. Although I’ll sneak in a few pictures of you smiling at the camera, most of your story will be told through a mixture of candids and natural movements.
“I knew I could rely on her for anything that day.” – C.D.
Time and time again clients have told me I feel like a friend on their wedding day. I love being that kind of friend who gets to support them through, be a part of, and capture their “we will always remember this day” moments.
Leading up to your wedding day it’ll be clear how whole-heartedly invested I am in creating a plan to bring your vision to life and making it happen. That is what ultimately creates a relaxed atmosphere ON your wedding day. You'll be able to trust your memories are in the best possible hands — whether I’m guiding you through fun prompts, corralling families for portraits, hyping you up, or out-of-sight capturing details.
While taking care of your memories, I’ll also be taking care of YOU. Thirsty? Unexpected spill? Need a breather? I’m your girl!

Our day would not have turned out as perfect as it did without Jessica behind the camera capturing it all.
She not only captured our special day perfectly, she also worked with us well before the actual day to make sure everything we wanted was covered and created an atmosphere for us that got the best from both my wife and I.

2. BOOK YOUR DATE
3. THE IN-BETWEEN
Once you hit submit on my contact form I’ll get back to you ASAP with package options and all the details. Afterward, we’ll get on the phone to learn about each other, discuss what’s on your mind, and honestly … just get hyped about your wedding day!
As soon as you pay your retainer and sign the contract your date is LOCKED IN — and so am I! Right out the gate, you’ll get a wedding planning resource with advice, vendor recs, etc!
In between booking and the wedding we will plan/ document your engagement session (if applicable)! I’m also here during this time as a resource for any planning questions you have. Or if you simply have exciting updates that are too good not to share!
4. PREPPING & POLISHING
2-3 months before your date we’ll start to organize your photo and wedding timeline. I’m going to make sure every special shot you want is accounted for AND that you have as much time as possible to soak in the specialness of this day!
5. ON YOUR BIG DAY
6. THE PHOTOS
On your wedding day I’ll be treating you like the guest of honor that you are! While you handle the celebrating, I’ll be handling all the photos. I promise to capture everything you hoped for and then some!
You’ll only have 4 days of dreaming about your wedding photos before actually getting to see some of them! After your sneak peeks it’ll be 6-8 weeks until your full wedding day gallery is ready. Once it’s delivered they’re yours to share, download, and print!

Frequently asked questions
What is the turn around time on my gallery?
I will have your wedding gallery delivered to you 6-8 weeks after your wedding date. I know how hard it is to wait to see the final product! I’ll keep in touch with you about the estimated time of when your full gallery will be delivered.
Do you send a sneak peek of my photos?
I do! I LOVE being able to give you a sneak peek of your photos! I know how it is being all excited to see your images, so I make it a priority to send you a handful of photos before you get your full gallery!
Will you photoshop us/ me?
My goal is to capture the TRUE to you. Meaning your dimples, freckles, and all the other beautiful things that make you, you. But if you have a temporary blemish or cut you want edited out, I’ve got you, consider them gone!
Have you photographed a wedding at our venue before? Does that make a difference?
I truly believe it doesn't make much of a difference. Not only do I research your venue before your wedding day, I also make it a goal to arrive early to: scout out the location, check out the lighting situations, and get familiar with the venue.
Are you willing to travel?
YES! I'm up for capturing your love story and being your third wheel wherever that may take us.

PLAN ON IT
No amount of planning (or years spent dreaming) can prepare you for everything that will unfold on your wedding day. You’ll know the big moments are coming. But it’s impossible to know how you’ll react, or what the little moments of tears, laughter, or gratitude will follow.
Luckily, when you’re immersed in experiencing this day with your loved ones, the little things that don’t go as planned won’t even cross your mind! Looking back you’ll know this day went exactly as it was supposed to.
