I'm so happy you're here! I'm not here to be your average couples/engagement photographer, but help you create an experience that is so intimate and fun between just the two of you. My mission is to make the process easy, stress free, and feeling like a fun date. From the time you reach out and inquire for your engagement/couples session, I'll be there for you. I want you to be able to have a fun and unique experience and honestly just forget I'm even there at times.
From running on a beach, rolling around in the sand, playing with your dogs, drinking wine, picking up a pizza to eat, going on a hike, checking out an arcade/bar, or even just having fun at home. Did you know these are all actual session ideas that we could make happen? Let me know if this is something you want to do!! I love incorporating things that are special to the two of you and not just another session.
As a hopeless romantic at heart, I really enjoy being able to capture the most special moments. I truly want to help bring your vision to life, capture everything as the day unfolds, and document the little moments for you to look back on for years to come.

pLANNING YOUR session
Hiring me doesn't mean I will just show up on the day of and start shooting. It means ongoing communication- from the second you send me an inquiry to your session, I'm here for you. We will talk a lot about your session and your vision for your session before hand. From emails and questionnaires, I'm going to be there for you!
I’ll send over my welcome guide and questionnaires getting to know what your dream engagement or couples session looks like to you. We will figure out locations, outfits, hair and makeup, start and end times, how long we would have to hike, sunset, blue hour, etc.
You'll receive another in depth questionnaire to finalize all the details and make sure everything is in one place, which will keep us more organized. We will either chat over the phone or through email to finalize everything from mood boards, sunset times, location pins, etc.

All about jess
Hey, I'm Jessica, your couples and engagement session photographer. A Wisconsin girl who has a heart for travel and connection. I believe that there's so much more to life than your hometown or the state you live in. Travel and experience is honestly everything to me. My mission is to give you the best experience possible all while exploring new places. My approach is to create a connection, give you the best experience, and capture moments as they naturally unfold versus constantly posing. At the end of the day, these moments are what mean the most.
Some of my favorite places that I've traveled to and would travel to again in a heart beat include: Costa Rica, Hawaii, Greece, London, Yosemite,GrandTetons/ Yellowstone, Mexico, San Diego, Lake Tahoe, Colorado, and Arizona.
I can't wait to help you curate the best engagement or couples session!
