I love how timeless this portrait feels. A new big sister admiring her sweet baby brother. One of those moments you can see hanging on your wall for years.

In 2010, when I was just starting my photography business, I remember a friend asking me, “Do you want to photograph my wedding?”

I was completely taken aback. A wedding?! Me?!

She said, “Jess, you have to start somewhere.”

So on August 6, 2010, I photographed my very first wedding.

Back then, I would literally take my desktop computer to weddings, edit about 20 images throughout the day, and put together a rolling slideshow for the reception. 😂 It feels like a lifetime ago, but I still remember it like it was yesterday.

In this photo, you’ll see me working away while two little girls watch over my shoulder. The little girl on the left was my friend’s daughter, and my husband is standing in the background.

But the little girl watching me edit over my shoulder?

I photographed HER wedding years later.

This memory popped up in my feed because it’s August, and I’ve probably seen this photo a dozen times over the years. But this time, I looked at it differently.

I saw the full circle.

That little girl watching me work at my very first wedding had no idea she would one day be a bride in front of my camera.

And I certainly had no idea that the little business I was just beginning would lead me here.

Sometimes you don’t realize you’re living a full-circle moment until you look back. ❤️

A LITTLE BEHIND THE PHOTO…
Because there’s always a story behind the image

The light isn't always where you expect it.

I opened a tiny little window in a bedroom closet to make some space on the windowsill. Freshly rained on, ridiculously humid Indiana summer air rushed through that closet window. And somehow… This was the perfect little spot for these details.

Sometimes you just have to find the right light and make it work.

Some moments don't need a face to tell the whole story.

What an amazing session with these girls. So much love and a little bit of magic in the sunshine. I love Indiana summers.

Cake smash sessions in my Zionsville studio can be messy and still make the sweetest portraits.

Small wedding, big dance floor energy!

Just because your wedding is small, doesn't mean you can't have some seriously fun photos.

Give me some music and a group of fun people, and the rest is easy!

17 frames from the sweetest intimate wedding in Morgantown, Indiana. Just six guests on a rainy day with the most beautiful little pause in the rain for portraits.

Rainy days make some pretty great memories. ☔️💛

Let them play. Let them get a little wet. Sometimes those are the photos you end up loving the most. I’ll always take a little bit of real life over a perfectly posed picture.
