I've said no a lot in the last few years, and while it saddened me often, I don't regret it because I know it was necessary in that season of my life in order for me to answer the current call to welcome y'all (and your friends) back into my life.
XoXo, Jessi
When I made the decision to retire from Weddings + Family Photography in 2017, I felt 100% in my bones that I was making the right decision for me. And in that moment, I truly believe it was! But as I developed my SHOOT-TOBER Family Mini Session Event over the last few years, I realized that there was a piece of me really missing the fun connections and relationships with other amazing families. Chatting struggles and funny stories about our navigations of motherhood. Just being...me.
The truly memorable moments aren't the perfect outfits or the perfect smiles. They are the ones that portray real life, real emotions, and personality.
and capturing families as they are, in a fully judge-free zone.

I believe in
The Drennen Family
"Jessi is so many things when capturing my family, but
I wanted to keepsake. She always captures the smiles I want frozen in time of my family and she's energetic to keep everyone smiling, especially when kids make the shoot extra interesting. Her charismatic and genuine love of the friends and families she photographs truly shows in her efforts and I couldn't be more grateful for the moments she's captured for us.
The Santa Maria Family
"We have been using the services of Jessi for years, and I must say that her talent and skill are absolutely amazing.
Her ability to make us feel comfortable and relaxed during the photo shoots is truly remarkable. Jessi’s attention to detail and creative eye result in stunning images that always exceed our expectations. We are grateful for her dedication and passion for her craft. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a talented family photographer.
