This sweet sunrise milestone session is on the blog today!!

Time for a re-introduction!! I’m Jessie 👋🏻 hi hi! I started off doing photography when I was 17 years old and was hired to photograph my first wedding 😱 I have had a camera in my hand since then, and it kinda feels like it’s just another limb at this point lol
I’ve gotten to photograph almost everything from weddings to global conferences to birth to adoption ceremonies to portrait sessions… basically just always taking photos.

I specialized as a full time bo***ir photographer several years ago, but then covid hit *right* when I became a mom (looking at you, April 2020) and it irrecoverably changed how I approached photography. I put down my camera for a while. I focused on being a parent. I built another business (hi .co ) and I took a step back.

In the last six months I’ve picked up my camera again. I’m mostly working with families now, because becoming a mother ✨changed me✨. I know how sharp and real time becomes when you see it rapidly changing your child. I know the ache of wishing for one more newborn snuggle.

So here’s my goal: I wanna help you capture the good old days. I want it to be easy. Fun. Simple. (Not just adding to the mental load).

If that’s your vibe in a family photographer, I might just be your girl and I’d love to connect 🫶🏻

To all amazing moms today 🥂 no matter what your experience with motherhood, you are strong & resilient & amazing. I’ll forever be in awe with the magic that is Mother.

The giggles!!! One of the best parts of family sessions to capture because I KNOW this is the photo that moms will look back on in 10 years 😍🥹

How did I never post bluebonnet photos?! We had to roll with the punches this year again because the big fields we all love were nowhere in site. But we found a good patch of blooms and met up at golden hour for these cutie’s annual photos.
Bluebonnet photos will always be special to me, since I also grew up taking photos in the fields. There’s not much more ‘iconic Austin experience’ than this. 😍
