I had the absolute pleasure of working with Jessica, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the moment I stepped into her studio, I was impressed by the warmth and professionalism she exudes. Her attention to detail and commitment to making sure every aspect of the shoot is perfect is evident in everything she does.

Jessica's talent behind the lens is unmatched—she has an incredible ability to capture the essence of a person, the magic of a moment, and the beauty in every shot. Whether it’s a portrait, a family session, or a creative concept, she has an eye for making every photo feel authentic and breathtaking.

The studio itself is a beautiful space, thoughtfully designed to create a relaxed yet inspiring environment. You immediately feel at ease, which allows you to truly be yourself during the shoot.

What really sets Jessica apart, though, is the amazing team she’s built around her. The staff is friendly, accommodating, and extremely professional, creating a seamless experience from start to finish. Everyone makes you feel like a priority and works hard to ensure that the whole process is enjoyable.

If you're looking for an unforgettable photography experience with a true professional, Jessica is the one to trust. I couldn’t be more impressed with the entire experience!

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible experience I had with Jessica as both my newborn photographer and mentor. As a fellow newborn photographer, I had high expectations for capturing my own baby's first days, and Jessica exceeded them in every way. From the moment we walked into the studio, she made us feel so comfortable and at ease, knowing exactly how to handle my newborn with gentle care and patience.

Jessica certainly has an eye for detail, a talent for capturing those fleeting, precious moments, and a calm, professional demeanor that sets the tone for a stress-free session. Although I haven’t seen the final photos yet, I have complete confidence they will be nothing short of amazing, based on the care and artistry she brings to her work.

As my mentor, Jessica has been generous with her time, knowledge, and encouragement, guiding me through every aspect of newborn photography, from posing to editing, while always fostering my growth as a professional.

If you're looking for a photographer who is not only skilled but truly passionate about what they do, I highly recommend Jessica. You won’t just get beautiful photos; you’ll get an experience filled with love, care, and expertise.

The whole experience with Jessica at her studio was absolutely amazing! From the initial communication to the magical photoshoot experience to receiving our beautiful photos and album from our newborn's photoshoot, the entire experience was wonderful. Jessica was so patient and gentle with our little one, and the photos are simply stunning. We will cherish these memories forever. Highly recommend!

My maternity shoot with Jessica was nothing short of amazing! Jessica makes the process seamless by being so thorough with me before my shoot (and even after). When I arrived at the studio everything was ready to go and super organized. There was even a look I wanted to change and Jessica made sure to make it happen! The entire experience was beautiful and I will always cherish the photos I have of my pregnancy. Thank you Jessica capturing my amazing photos and making the process so easy!

I’ve had the pleasure of shooting with Jessica for both my maternity photos and also motherhood photos with my son. From the moment you book with her you know she is truly a step above the rest. It took me several days of searching online to find what I envisioned and her work was exactly what I was looking for, high-end editorial photography.

From consulting on what your ideal looks will be prior to the shoot, to working with amazing hair and makeup professionals, and at the shoot making you feel so at ease and beautiful, I couldn’t imagine anyone else capturing photos the way she does.

When you invest in her services you will no doubt be blown away with how amazing her work is and you truly feel like you’re shooting for a magazine cover when you get the final edit photos. I’ve had other professional photos taken and the level of expertise and just the overall vibe with her is such a wonderful experience and I hope to be able to shoot with her again in the future!

Jessica is a genius! I used her for my son’s newborn photos as well as his 6 month photos. If we didn’t move, I would still use her for every milestone. She is talented, patient and reassuring with the right amount of instruction needed for a successful session with a little one. Highly recommend !

Jessica and her team were professionals, kind, and made you feel super comfortable. The photos we took came out stunning and I can’t wait to show our daughter once she is born. It was a great splurge and would absolutely encourage anyone to use Jess for your maternity photo shoot!

Jessica took both my maternity and newborn photos. Both experiences were top notch from initial call to final photos. She is warm, easy to work with, easy to talk to and she makes you feel comfortable being in front of a camera. She really works with you on your goals & needs and delivers some amazing photos!! She is also a baby whisperer in keeping your newborn sleeping through the shoot. It was hard to choose a selection. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for maternity and newborn photos. You won’t be disappointed!!
