Hi, I’m Jessica. Lover of rose-gold details, good coffee, and all things beautifully intentional. You’ll usually find me in something blush, a well-worn TARDIS hoodie, or my favorite Hufflepuff sweatpants. I’m a wife to the world’s best husband (and teacher), mama to two incredible girls, and we call Fayetteville, North Carolina home, along with our Balinese cat, Han Solo.
I’ve spent years in the wedding industry, and while I photograph many seasons of life, weddings have always held my heart. They’re where storytelling, legacy, and artistry meet, and there’s nothing I love more than capturing love stories in a way that feels timeless, romantic, and deeply meaningful.
Josh is my other half and the love of my life, my childhood best friend and my greatest supporter. He has a deep love for theology, cinema, and the beach, and his favorite movie will always be Indiana Jones. He’s an incredible Bible teacher with a thoughtful, steady presence, and the way he loves so faithfully is a constant inspiration behind the way I capture love stories.

Anna Snow is our eldest daughter, born in 2010, the one who made us parents and showed us what love truly is. She has one of the kindest hearts I’ve ever known, always quick to care for the people around her. Anna loves skincare, time with her friends, and creating content on her YouTube channel. And if you know her at all, you know her favorite color is pink.

She has the most empathetic heart and always wants the people around her to feel happy and loved. Raine enjoys video games, chocolate, and frogs, and her favorite color is pastel green, perfectly fitting for her sweet spirit.

Han Solo is our Balinese cat, who officially joined the family in December 2021. Because most of us are allergic to animals, he’s our very first pet, and thankfully, he’s hypoallergenic and full of personality. Han is equal parts mischievous and lovable, with a special talent for playing hide-and-seek and surprising you by popping out to grab your leg as you walk by.

I married my childhood best friend in 2009. At the time I was in school for Graphic Design. I took my first photography class in that program, and little did I know at the time, that I had opened a door to my true passion.
When I had Anna Snow, I took a break from school. I wanted to go back to my roots, so I went back to traditional media, painting with watercolors. I’m a huge geek, so I sold my artwork at comic book conventions. This is me holding my original watercolor TARDIS signed by David Tennant.
During my second pregnancy I got into calligraphy. When I began incorporating it with my watercolor, I discovered a whole new world that I absolutely loved. I designed and printed bespoke wedding stationery for couples all over. This is when I picked up a camera again, to do product photography. I realized that I was enjoying the photography aspect more than the designing.
When I first started photography, I was terrified to do weddings. I was obviously very familiar with the wedding industry, but photographing someone’s special day scared me to death. I will never forget my first experience second shooting. I fell in love capturing someone’s love story.
Fast forward to today. I am happier shooting weddings than I’ve ever been. I truly found my professional calling, and I love it.
