Storytelling through timeless, connection-driven photography.
Hi, I’m Jess — a photographer, storyteller and proud Florida native.
I'm a mom to two adventurous boys and a lifelong lover of the outdoors, which means I’m always chasing light, and those small but powerful moments that tell a story. Whether it's a quiet glance, a full-hearted laugh, or a family walk in nature, I believe the best photos are the ones that feel true — honest, relaxed, and full of connection.
Through my work, I aim to create a comfortable, playful atmosphere where you can be yourselves. I offer gentle guidance and encouragement throughout our time together, allowing real moments to unfold naturally — capturing how it felt to be there: the love, the joy, the story you're building together.
When I'm not behind the camera, you can usually find me hiking or biking Florida’s trails, tending my backyard garden, reading stories with my boys, or volunteering with conservation organizations that help protect the places I love to photograph and share with you.
Photography, for me, is about more than just beautiful images — it's about honoring your story with care, creativity and heart.
I’m so honored to do this work and would love to meet you, hear your story, and create something lasting together.
