grateful to have you here


I’m a wedding, family, and lifestyle photographer based in Southern California, primarily serving Joshua Tree, Palm Springs, and the Greater Los Angeles area; available for travel worldwide.


With a Bachelor of Science in Photography from the University of Central Florida and training in both analog film and digital photography, I’ve spent 17 years working in major cities like Orlando, Atlanta, and Los Angeles. Southern California being my home now for 12 years.


I’m passionate and confident about capturing your natural beauty in an organic, effortless way. My approach is Lifestyle which is rooted with documentary and candid but provides guidance when needed. I bring along editorial experience and techniques as well for those looking for a more fashion/polished approach for portraits.  Whether it’s an intimate backyard gathering, a grand upscale wedding, a religious ceremony, a spontaneous elopement, or a laid-back family session I bring intention, care, and authenticity to every client. My style is true to color, modern and authentic. I aim for an experience where you feel comfortable, guided, and empowered.

All Love Welcomed & Celebrated

Life is made up of meaningful moments, and every love story deserves to be captured authentically. I celebrate all love—no matter the culture, ethnicity, race, body type, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, ability, tradition, religion, or belief.

My focus is to tell your story in a way that feels both timeless and true to you.

What my Clients say

Annaca & Jacob

“I found Jessica on Wedding Wire, and absolutely fell in love with her photos. She knew exactly what I wanted stylistically and executed it incredibly on the day. She arrived on time, and made us feel relaxed throughout the day, taking all the photos I required from her but also suggested a few others. She was very calm and professional, making my us, my family and friends feel comfortable in front of the camera. I couldn't recommend Jessica enough. Our photos came out so beautifully.”
