Hi! I'm Jess, narrative documentarian,

which is a sophisticated manner of describing my role as a photographer.

It brings me immense joy to partake in life's significant celebrations and I consider myself fortunate to collaborate with such remarkable individuals.

Florida native

For more than a decade, I have meticulously documented stories on both coasts.

At times, I find myself pinching reality as a subtle reminder that my once-dreamt career has evolved into a concrete destination. My heart overflows with gratitude from the couples who have entrusted me with the precious gift of creative freedom.
