I describe my photographic style as natural and authentic. I strive to capture genuine moments shared between couples and families. This often means getting people in a natural setting where they’re comfortable and catching moments as they happen. I offer a range of products and services as part of a single, all-inclusive price.
I look through the lens of redemption and see beauty, hope and dignity, even in hard places - in toys fashioned from scrap, in weathered hands behind a sewing machine working for a better life, in the wrinkles that mark a grandmother’s perseverance. In Kigali and Phnom Penh, in Philadelphia and Paris, I find gratitude amidst grinding hardship, among people who have known terror or who have experienced rescue first hand. I love telling their stories, of learning from their joy, of watching them laugh as they see pictures of themselves for the first time. I offer all-inclusive pricing on freelance projects. Please contact me for pricing.

>>>Split a session<<<
Feeling like you don't need a full family session? Find a friend to split your session or ask me to be added to my waiting list for split sessions. Each family will have a 30-40 minute session for up to six people at the same location. Each family will receive 25+ fully edited images, individual pre-session guidance, its own online gallery and all digital images, as well as professional prints and products at discounted prices. A memory book is not included with split sessions. Cost of a split session is $350 per family.
Individualized pricing based on the project.
“I have no words other than I am
absolutely in love!”
“I was truly blessed and humbled by this amazing work of art.”
“Truly, you have captured my vision for a colorful and urban backdrop done in a setting that truly feels like ‘us.’ I just can't say enough, thank you!”
“Wow, they are so beautiful!!! I got teary-eyed just looking at them now. Thank you so much for capturing such gorgeous pictures of our family!!! I can't wait to share them with people!”
“I know I've said it before, but could you just follow my kids around and take pictures for the rest of their lives? I never cease to be amazed by your work!”
“Oh my gosh! They are so awesome! I literally have tears in my eyes.”
“Your images are amazing... You've such a gift...We are grateful to be the recipients of your talents.”
“Wow. Jessica exceeded my expectations for an unusual shoot...She is a rare talent.”
“You definitely worked your magic. You would never know from these photos that one boy staged a protest halfway through and sat down on the trail refusing to budge, another spent the whole time hiding his face and saying he didn't want his picture taken, and a third trying to goad his middle brother into full-on fisticuffs!! I love them!”
“I had a group of 6 or so co-workers gathered around me oooing and aaaaing... Jessica they are gorgeous!! Thank you a million times over! You've captured the day and given me the beautiful opportunity to see it all.”
“These are great! Thank you so much! That was, by far, the most fun we've ever had taking pictures. In fact, my daughter said it was as much fun as going to a birthday party.”
“LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!! You far exceeded my hopes for the senior portraits, and I am so very grateful.”
