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 your tribe the easier it is for me to bring out your personalities in what I capture!

I’m a new mama and what a journey that has been! I never knew a love like this could exist. My daughter, Naomi, is my happy place and you can find me smiling the biggest when doing anything with her. I enjoy hiking, going to the beach, surf photography, shrimp tacos, americanos with cream, parfaits, snuggling with my two dogs Murphy&Mac, and laughing with my husband Chris— who’s actually the funniest person 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!
