The heart behind the art

Aubrey + Tanner

Few words truly capture just how highly we think of Jessie. There is no one more willing to roll with the punches in order to make the absolute most of your wedding day - fences, mud slides, and 40 mph wind gusts are no obstacle. Her passion is so evident in her work and way of life which is why we felt the most peace laying our wedding day in her hands.

When we look back these photos, there is so much joy in how she captured us in our wholeness - a true gift she has given us!

I have nothing but the absolute best things to say about Jessie!!! You can't go wrong by hiring her for your photography needs. She captured our day in the most beautiful way. She got every shot we were hoping for and more. She was incredibly patient and kind throughout the whole day, and we had quite the large and loud bunch!! She brought so much calmness to what can be such a crazy day!! She was very aware of the timeline and kept us ahead of schedule the entire day allowing for us to be able to relax and really enjoy our big day!! I can't thank her enough for not only the beautiful photos that we will cherish for a lifetime but for being such a great addition to our day!!

Jessie was the BEST photographer I could have asked for. She made sure that I knew exactly what the plan was moving forward and was so good at staying in contact and giving advice where I needed it from the moment we started talking. I can't explain how grateful I am that I found her. My wedding day went smooth and seamless and she caught every moment of it perfectly. I highly recommend her if you are thinking of using her as your photographer and I plan to use her for future events as well!

I absolutely ADORE Jess! She does such high-quality work, extremely easy to work with and I felt like a very quick turnaround, especially considering how many photos we got back. She made us feel so comfortable and was very willing to try any idea that we had for our photos. Her pictures are such a wonderful reflection of us as a couple, and again I can't brag enough about how amazing her photos were. I have already recommended her to friends that are looking for a photographer! I'm attaching a couple of our favorites from our shoot!

Cat + Aaron

WOW. Our wedding truly would not have been the same without Jessie. Prior to the wedding, she provided an extremely helpful wedding planning guide, which really allowed us to get a more detailed understanding of how photos would fit into our schedule. Jessie was so calm and organized, and really fit seamlessly into our day. She had just enough structure for the photos so we didn't feel like we needed to come up with ideas, but was really flexible when we wanted specific shots. We got our photos back incredibly fast, as well! Our photos are everything we could have asked for and more - we are so grateful that we booked Jess for our special day!

Hannah + Noah

It has been such a blessing to have Jessie's incredible artistry capture some of my most meaningful moments so far! I cannot speak enough to her craftsmanship, inclusivity, and kindness!! She captured the love my partner and I share so perfectly throughout the entire process -- even encouraging us and guiding us when we were a little shy and didn't know how to pose! She suggested such a gorgeous spot to take the photos and I am soooo ecstatic about these photos.
