HI I’M JESSICA!

Most people call me Jess. I am a Wedding + Lifestyle Photographer based in Louisiana. I travel all over the state and even outside the state for bookings. I have been a photographer for 4+ years now, photographing a variety of genres of work, from commercial to portraits and more. I love the art and the craft that is photography, especially in the artistry of photographing people and playing with light.

When it comes to weddings and couples, I am passionate about documenting raw and authentic moments of people in love and living life. I desire to create photos that make you feel inspired and empowered, bringing out the best in you. I am all about heartfelt connection, having fun, and making memories you will cherish.

I know it can be hard to find a quality and trustworthy professional in all the noise of today's market. If you'd think we would be a good match, let's connect! Fill out the contact form on my website and I will get back to you soon. If you are a wedding or couple inquiring, a consultation call is recommended.

Wedding + Lifestyle Photographer based in Louisiana. Travel welcomed.

MY APPROACH

I am very much both a structured and go-with-the-flow kind-of person. More often than not I am always brimming with a passion for creativity and viewing every session as a unique experience tailored to the one-of-a-kind person/persons I have the opportunity to photograph. I am also ALL about communication, organization, and professionalism. I take great care in my work to deliver my clients' quality from start to finish, not just with your photos, but also with our interaction. I give guidance (literally, I give guides and recommendations) to help walk you through your session and prepare you for your big day. During sessions, I not only focus on helping you with flattering angles, but also capture the in-betweens.

My style is very much a mix of artsy and candid. I try to bring new life to the things and people I photograph, leaving them better than I found them.

How do you prepare for each session?

Before each session, I always keep in contact with you months in advance. I do my best to answer any and all of your questions, along with helping bring your ideas to life. I give location recommendations, session guides, and style guides for clothing colors and ideas.

I am an EXTREMELY organized person and literally walk with you through every step of the process. I want you as the client to feel as prepared and relaxed as possible to enjoy your session and have fun, whether your session is a one hour booking or as big as a wedding.

During a session, if I do not already know you, I want to get to know you better, I will ask you funny questions and heart-warming questions to help you feel more comfortable in front of the camera. I also have you literally dance, run-around and give the biggest hugs you can, bringing out the love and laughter in the memories you are making.
