Where to begin with Jess. Jess was a guardian angel sent to my husband and me. She was initially recommended to us by our venue (Foxfire Mountain House) and was promised to be a calming presence on our big weekend - we booked the weekend package. Jess was calming and yet also such an energized presence too! She rolled with the punches and shot out in the rain with us, she grabbed every single moment we could possibly want photographed with both film & digital, and her artistry is second to none - she is a master behind the camera and was so professional, kind, timely, and just, amazing. She is the best. Hire her. I will let the photos speak for themselves. Not pictured is our engagement photo shoot which came as part of our package. they turned out equally gorgeous and bespoke!!!! BOOK JESS.

My wife and I worked with Jess over this past year for engagement photos and coverage of our wedding (ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception). The engagement photos were done in NYC and the wedding was at a venue outside of Philadelphia. It was a true pleasure to work with Jess. She is extremely skilled, knowledgable, communicative, and prepared.

The quality of the work in her portfolio speaks for itself but I cannot overstate how thrilled my partner and I are with the photos. She managed to capture so many lovely moments and the spirit of the day. The intimacy and beauty she brings out with her portraits is astounding—I have never felt more comfortable being in front of a camera and I have never loved the result so much. The variety of the media brings a beauty to the detail I didn’t think I would care about—the place settings, the venue, and everything else look great and are considered in composition and lighting. None of photos delivered are there just to check a box.

The amount of preparation and work she puts in for each job is evident just by the uniquely specific nature of her questionnaire—her questions were helpful for us in planning! She was always quick to email us back when we had questions for her and helpful in ways we never would have expected—good news if you don’t know how to pin a boutonniere, Jess does (and she brought extra pins).

The amount of choices for any type of wedding vendor is overwhelming. You would be lucky, as we were, to choose Jess.

Jess was the first photographer we met, and during our first meeting, we felt instantly comfortable, and understood, and canceled all of our meetings with other photographers. She shot our wedding with an eye for the big moments, but even more of note, with an eye for the small ones of laughter, connection, and unexpected joy and love. She is truly an artist, and we frequently look back on our photos and feel transported to how we felt on that day (the best day of our lives!). She was reliable and so speedy, we were shocked at how quickly we got back our sneak peeks (days) and full wedding album (a month). She shot in both digital and film before film photos for weddings were trendy. Although I was hesitant at first to try out a more artistic style, they are absolutely my favorite ones of the day. We love Jess and will give her our highest recommendation for anyone planning a future wedding.
