Photographer vs. the moment šŸ“ø

I can set up the shot, find the light, fix the hair, and tell everyone where to stand…

…but the stuff I really want to photograph is what happens when you forget I’m there.
The belly laughs. The weird faces. The little hands. The chaos. The hugs that last a little longer than expected.

Because someday, these are the photos you’ll care about most.
Family sessions are now booking. If you’ve been meaning to get everyone in front of the camera, consider this your sign. šŸ¤

I leave in October, catch me before i’m gone!

šŸŽø Hey bands, let me shoot you!

It’s fair season, which means I’ve been spending a lot of time in front of stages, chasing good light and dancing to great music.

I recently photographed TSR (Thankful Soul Revival) at the Lebanon Fair, and it reminded me how much I love photographing musicians in their element.

I’ve been a professional photographer for 14 years, and I know how to find the moments that make a photo feel alive, not just the ones where everyone happens to be looking at the camera.

Good band photos matter. They’re often the first thing people see when they discover you; on your socials, website, flyers, press releases, album artwork, and everywhere in between.

I want to capture the energy, personality, chaos, sweat, ridiculous guitar faces, and everything that makes your band your band.

Playing a fair, festival, concert, brewery, dive bar, backyard?

Hi. šŸ‘‹ I’d love to photograph you. Shoot me an email and we can work out a quote that works for you.

You make the music, I’ll chase the light. šŸŽøšŸ“ø

Super duper thanks to everyone who has continued to support me over the years. It’s not easy promoting yourself as an artist and I’m forever grateful for those who continue to share my name! Looking forward to making some magic with some of you before I go.

Ilana Glazer last week at The Academy of Music in Northampton, MA, with Dan St. Germain opening the stage.

I’ve been to almost every venue in Northampton, but I’ve shockingly never been to Academy of Music Theatre. The details of this theater are so beautiful I was obsessed.

Confession….I live under rocks and I had no idea who Ilana was until this gig. I dove into her podcast while I was editing and loved it. Several of you recommended Broad City so I started binge watching that this week. Thank y’all for that, it’s hilarious! Such an accurate (although exaggerated) representation of the millennial in their 20s experience and girl friendships.

This is your sign to have your family photos taken at home! Why?

šŸ“šAuthentic Storyteling: Turn your daily routine into art. You may think it’s chaos, but I see magic!

šŸ“Pets: No one is left out!

🧸Your Stuff: We surround ourselves with little nuggets of our personality. Bringing that self expression into photos not only makes them unique to you, but preserves them forever.

šŸ Home Sweet Home: There’s no place like it, everyone is most comfortable here. Which means it’s easier for everyone to be themselves.

šŸŖConvenience: Everything you need is right at your finger tips!

ā›ˆļøWeather is never a problem! Is it storming? Let’s move it inside. Bake some cookies, play a game, snuggle on the couch. Want to run around in the rain, jump in mid puddles then warm up with some hot chocolate? Even better!

Give your family the freedom to be themselves in the safety of your home! Shoot me an email to book today, I’ll be in the northeast until the end of September.

Photos are finished! I'll be emailing links to full galleries to everyone who sent me an email tomorrow. Y'all made it easy to capture the moments, but choosing which ones to keep was a grueling process. Just over 3,000 photos in the final count, only took 85hrs of editing. Hopefully I got it all! - Jackie

P.S. Shoot me an email if you'd like to be sent the full galleries. [email protected]
