Bespoke experience for modern couples

Authentic. Genuine. Romantic.

Raw, authentic moments will be my absolute favorite from your wedding day, and the better I know you, the better my images from your day will reflect you and the emotions that flow through your big day. 

I don’t pose, I direct. “Posed” photos aren’t really my thing—I am more into directing you into an effortless moment that feels easy and true to you.

I also love to have a good time! I will double as your wedding day hype girl, hair touch-up artist, and general good vibe enthusiast. I aim to make photos feel comfortable, fun, and as natural as possible. 

It is a great responsibility to know that I am capturing memories (and feelings) that people will relive and hold onto for generations, and I don’t take that lightly. 

Connection with my couples is so important to me—I aim to show up on your wedding day as another friend in the room sharing the experience with you, capturing bespoke images that are timeless and catered to your individual love story. I hope we get the chance to know one another and make magic together!

Her

Him

Once you are a JW couple, I am on your team! I want to know all of the details of your day and what makes you excited. I genuinely want to get to know you and your story. 

She finds joy in the simple moments, cares about the details and celebrates beauty in life.

He adores her and has only one wish: for her to be happy.

I have never felt more comfortable in front of a camera, and on a day that has a reputation for being stressful! She has a calm, stress-free presence, and I was so thankful to have her capturing my wedding day! 

She managed to make photos fun, make our families laugh and have a good time, and no detail was too small for her. Need a style tip? She’s got it. Need a pep talk? She’s your girl. 

She took special attention to make sure she captured the images that would be special for my husband and I—not just typical, generic wedding photos. 

She will dance with you at your reception and relive your day with you as a friend. Once you meet her, you will see how special and truly talented she is at what she does. Hands down, Jesi was the best investment I made for my wedding day."

"Jesi is a one-of-a-kind photographer.

The Knot: Best of weddings

I like to learn about my couples—their personalities + style. I go into every wedding asking how I can uniquely capture each couple so that their images reflect their story.
The goal is to capture feelings and genuine moments unfolding, not just photos.

my approach

It’s a big deal for both of you. I like to carve out a time for the groom to have special moment in the wedding day, too.

Some of the unfiltered, in-between moments are unique and perfect on their own.

Your story is in the quiet moments too…

The JW Experience

The High-End Experience

"Jesi captured our wedding day and every single special moment perfectly! She blew my high expectations out of the water!! My pictures of our wedding day are priceless and something I get to treasure forever. I cannot express how grateful I am for her and how hard she worked to make all my dreams reality."

Brandi R.

"Jesi was super awesome to work with. She made both me and my husband feel very comfortable. She was laid back and go-with-the-flow even though our timeline was running behind. She made lots of suggestions that made everything turn out better than I could have imagined. The final photos were amazing. I would highly recommend Jesi to anyone."

Jordan P.

"Jesi went above and beyond to meet our needs for our special day. The communication was open and productive, and she always listened to and prioritized our ideas and vision. Her professionalism was beyond compare, and if we had to do it over again, we would choose her every single time. Our photos were so amazing and caught each special moment, from the vow exchange to the first dance, perfectly. We definitely got emotional looking through them because they just indescribably encapsulated the love and the moment. I’m usually of the opinion, “if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is,” but that is just so far from the truth with Jesi. If you have the opportunity to hire her for any special event, you just absolutely have to."

James H.

"Jesi is such a lovely person and an exceptional photographer. Her focus on details makes such a big difference and she has a perfect eye for capturing exactly what you’re looking for, all while making you feel totally comfortable. All the photos came out exactly how I hoped. I highly recommend her."

Beth N.

"Love love, love, working with Jesi! As a perfectionist working with someone so detail oriented was a blessing to say the least. We will absolutely be using her for any future family sessions or anything else we need picture wise."

Lindsay M.

"Jesi took our engagement and wedding photos and she was absolutely PHENOMENAL to work with. Not only does she take amazing pictures, but she makes you feel comfortable in front of a camera and will easily guide you into getting that perfect shot. Jesi is also SUCH a joy to be around. She will be your hype girl and will no doubt make you laugh. She also helps to ease the stress of all things wedding. I truly felt like she was my sidekick making sure that everything went smoothly! Jesi was pro at keeping things organized and on time. My husband and I both have big families and Jesi did a great job directing everyone and making sure that we got all the pictures we wanted (and then some!!). I can't say enough great things about Jesi. She went above and beyond for us and we would definitely book with her again!!"

Caitlin F.

"Jesi shot my engagement and wedding photos and did a phenomenal job! The pictures are absolutely beautiful and timeless. I have received countless compliments on our photos. I’m so grateful to have our memories captured in such a stunning way that will last a life time. Jesi has a natural talent and an eye to create whatever look you’re going for. She is professional and made the photo shoots fun and relaxing for us. During our wedding, she had the amazing ability to gather our very large families together in a timely manner so that we could go enjoy our big day! She truly listens and cares about what you want out of your pictures and makes them come to life. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!"

Candice S.

"Jesi made me feel comfortable and confident despite how awkward I feel during photoshoots. She listened when I communicated what I wanted to capture our style and personalities - especially as I shared types of locations and styles that I didn't want."

“When I find myself in a moment where I am experiencing true joy in my own life, I grab my camera to capture it in some way — I find that imagery has a unique ability to bring us right back to the emotions we felt in a particular moment, and I love knowing I am giving that to each couple that trusts me with their wedding day.”
