who I am
Capturing Love, Life and Authentic Connections
Hi, I’m Jess!
I’m a wedding and family photographer based in Palmetto FL, proud boy mom to two, and wife. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me chasing golden hour sunsets, adventuring with my family, nurturing my garden, sipping a drink with a view, or curled up with a good book and my two pups.
For over 15 years, I’ve been capturing life’s most meaningful moments-your love, your connections and the little details that make your story beautifully unique.
My philosophy
Open Communication, Valuable Advice and an Unforgettable Experience
Communication is the center of my work, and my commitment to you is to provide an exceptional experience. I'm here to answer your questions, listen to your dreams and ideas and assist in capturing the most authentic moments that weave your unique story. Building a genuine relationship with you is key to capturing your story in a truly heartfelt way. I love in getting to know your true selves, embracing your quirks, and understanding what makes you both shine.
How I work
Meaningful Imagery, Embracing Authenticity and Guided Poses
I know how important it is to have photos that truly feel like you. My goal is to create a relaxed, playful atmosphere where you can focus on being yourselves. Throughout our time together, I offer gentle guidance and encouragement, allowing real moments to unfold naturally.
What Clients Are Saying
“5 stars is not enough!! Jessica is THE BEST photographer and overall a great person to have on your special day. She captured every essence of our wedding and made me feel super calm and relaxed while taking photos. From the moment she walked in the room I felt so lucky to have her as our photographer. We can’t recommend her enough to all of our friends and will definitely be using her again as we capture our lives in the future. Thank you Jessica!” - Jordan H.

It's not just about capturing a beautiful image, but about feeling relaxed and authentic while doing so. That comfort translates into photos that reflect the true essence of your family — moments filled with love, joy, and connection. It’s a gift to have someone who not only creates stunning images but also brings warmth and friendship to the experience.” -Molly C.
