Hi, I’m Jessica.
Some of you have been here since the beginning. Some of you found me last week. Either way, I’m glad you’re here.
The short(er) version: I was supposed to be in finance. Big corporate, boss lady, the whole plan. Then God had other plans, and somewhere between raising my son and a few crazy detours I’ll tell you about someday, I picked up a camera.
I photographed a wedding photographer for a Mother’s Day mini session back in 2015 I believe. He actually offered to mentor me when I brought up that weddings sounded like something I’d probably would enjoy doing. It took me a full year to work up the courage to say yes. When I finally did, he taught me the Karate Kid way (from the 80’s). Wax on, wax off. And yes, I’m from the 1900’s. Lighting before I ever touched a camera. Assisting before I ever pressed a shutter. A year and a half later, he told me I was ready.
I shot my first wedding on my own in 2018. And I started the way most of us do. Reception halls, small weddings, saying yes to everything. Over a hundred weddings later, I now find myself in rooms where the decor and details lead the way. Lush florals. Invitations, menus, and name cards curated down to the letter. Signage made to be photographed. The personals, your shoes, your second dress waiting for hora loca and the after party.
And I still get the same rush. The pace of the day. The bride’s giddiness right before she walks down that aisle. The quiet moments nobody plans and the editorial ones we do.
My style lives somewhere between documentary and timeless. In the moment, but elevated. I believe Miami weddings are some of the most beautiful in the world, and I get to photograph them.
Off camera: born and raised in Miami. Christian. Mom of two, a 21 year old son and an almost 13 year old daughter I homeschool. I quilt. I’m three years into building a butterfly garden in my backyard and I’ve been married for 17 years.
And to everyone who has hired me, encouraged me, referred me, or simply cheered from the sidelines. You built this with me. Thank you.
If you’re new here, welcome. I’m so glad our paths crossed. 🤍
