BEHIND THE LENS
AN ARTIST WHO IS PERPETUALLY NOSTALGIC, beLIEVES beauty LIES within details and human connection is not only life giving, but is what gives life meaning.
Golden Hour fanatic, travel and food enthusiast, lover of motherhood and deeply appreciative of life's simple pleasures.
Jessica finds tremendous beauty in the ordinary, believes at least one moment in every day is noteworthy and deserves to be remembered through a photograph. The longer she does this, the more aware she is of what a beautiful opportunity exists to capture life as it unfolds. Because life doesn't last forever, but the images do.
The immense passion for story-telling and memory making has been there practically from the start, but the medium for those two things collided during a two year stint in Seoul, South Korea. With travel as her muse, a passion for photography was ignited.
After spending over a decade in the marketing/advertising space working for software startups, she desired something more personally rewarding, enduring and worthwhile. Taking her expertise and channeling it toward making heartfelt imagery to be enjoyed forever, she is proud to collaborate with her clients and the best creative minds in the industry.

THE SENTIMENTAL AND DRIVEN BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL-TURNED-ARTIST WHO'S PROUD TO GIVE HER ALL TO CLIENTS AND COLLEAGUES.
Give me something new to try with good company and I'm sure to enjoy myself! If I must claim my forever favorite? It's the Trust Me Nozawa from Sugarfish. In addition, the longer I do this, the more I fall in love with the art of entertaining, table design and curating the perfect menu!
food is where the heart is
Probably like you, my family is my whole world and the absolute best part of living. So grateful for my beautiful family! Motherhood is wonderful, complex, an incredible act of service and it's better than I could ever imagine.

Going for walks late at night, journaling and getting lost in a new city while doing a photowalk. And my personal favorite: laughing until I cry and my abs hurt.

My role on the wedding day requires incredible finesse to understand when to command the room, when to provide creative direction and when to step back and become completely invisible to the moments happening in front of my lens. It even sometimes requires me jumping in to collaborate on a task that isn't part of my job description. It's a dance that keeps me on my toes and one of my greatest strengths as a photographer.
THE DANCE

Travel has been, and will always be my greatest muse. It's entirely fitting to now have the privilege of working all around the globe. The adventure of travel and documenting it along the way always fills my cup. Though it's not at all as glamorous as it seems, it's always worthwhile. From the glittering Adriatic Sea and sailing the Croaitan islands, to the Christmas markets in Vienna, Austria and Seoul, South Korea, a place I once called home for two years - it's always difficult for me to claim a favorite! A recent destination I was smitten by was Cartagena, Colombia.

The ability to freeze a moment in time that has the ability to live beyond my generation. There's always at least one moment of each family session or wedding that I see a moment through my viewfinder and whisper to myself "THAT'S the one". I can easily recall at least 2-5 favorite images from every single session or wedding I shoot.
