I’m 39 years old, a self taught photographer with guidance of phenomenal mentors, avid book reader, proud wife of 17 years (My husband is a military veteran), and cool mother to my 3 beautiful, smart, and amazing children ages 15, 11, and 9.
My love for photography began in my very early High School teen years. I carried a disposable camera with me everywhere I went. Even while dating my husband after High School. My husband then gifted me my very first digital camera and I haven't looked back.
Oh Hey, Friend!
I'm Jessica.

"Working with Jessica to capture such an important moment in my life was literally a blast! "
College Grad
From answering all my questions to being my biggest hype woman during the session- I couldn’t imagine it going any other way. Not once did she make me feel like my vision wasn't going to be captured. Since we all know that Florida is unpredictable with the weather, she stayed up-to-date with the weather and kept me in the loop and was so flexible when we had to reschedule. With having to reschedule, she still got my sneak peeks to me like she promised! I can't say enough how amazing and talented Jessica is, her work truly does show for it! Thank you again Jessica, you're stuck with me forever friend!!”

"From start to finish, she made us feel so comfortable and beautiful!"
"Jessica was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the beginning she was so kind and had many ideas for a mommy and me photoshoot. We decided on a beach picnic tea party and she sent over pictures of her vision.
The morning of our shoot, I walked down the beach to see a beautiful picnic set up and 50 Cent playing (per my daughter’s request). Within DAYS she sent over our pictures and I was blown away. The photos are absolutely gorgeous and everyone I’ve shown them to are in love. If you're in need of a photographer, do not think twice.

"She connected quickly with my 5 year old and made taking pictures fun."
You are literally the best, we love you and the photos! Jessica was super sweet. She connected quickly with my 5 year old and made taking pictures fun. She didn't just force specific poses or a specific plan and let things come naturally between what an unpredictable 5 year old wanted to do and what she needed to get a good picture. Oh and she sent really helpful reminders of everything we’d need the day before the photoshoot!”
