Jessica Layton Photography

Sunrise sessions may honestly be my favorite…not only is the lighting perfect but it gets my butt out of bed and gets the day started bright and early 😆

I had such a great time meeting these two…I couldn’t even pick my favorites! It’s always a plus when you end up having so much in common with your clients and can’t stop chatting 🤍

Nothing but sweet, sweet love. Ooooh man it was a brisk 22 degrees this morning and I may have lost my fingers but these two made it so worth it. I loved getting to know more about them + the love they share. Photography may not be my full time gig but man it’s mornings and couples like this that make me wish it was. Love you all 🩷

I have been soooo slow to get things going here in Alabama. It’s no secret that moving twice in a year can really throw ya for a loop but I am motivated to start being more active on here again. For my loyal and beloved NC peeps, I’ll be back at the end of the month and would love to see you guys 🩷

Happy Sunday everyone! It is such a rainy & cozy day which means lots of football in the Layton household. Go birds! 🦅 Hope you all had a great weekend

hey hi hello 👋 Don’t mind me popping in to remind you all I’m alive and well. We have officially moved in and settled into our beautiful new home in Alabama! We’ve been soaking up Nicks leave off and enjoying as much time together as we can. I’ll be back to photography soon but balancing a move, full time nursing and my graduate program…I needed to hit the brakes a little. I still have SO many beautiful photos to share from the end of my time in Missouri. Gosh, this month has flown by! I appreciate each & every one of you for being here 🤗

My heart is with Israel 💙🇮🇱 Please continue to pray for our friends & their loved ones who are dealing with this absolute horror

Friendly reminder that in-home lifestyle shoots are literally my jam 🍯 There’s just something so special to me about being able to capture your love in a place that you’ve worked so hard to make a cozy place to call home 🤗

Happy Tuesday friends!! 🤗 I’m pushing through today because tomorrow I head back to NC ✈️ I can’t wait to be back! I have some sessions scheduled too which is going to make it extra fun 😊 Have a great day everyone!

I’m nearly all booked up for the rest of our time here in Missouri 🥲 October has a select few dates left. Definitely bittersweet knowing we have 4 weeks left here, I’m ready to get out of here but not ready to leave our sweet friends. The drawbacks to this military life 🥺

Can we just admit the pressure to be present on social media is hard as heck? Between just moving to Missouri 5 months ago, to now gearing up for ANOTHER move, still managing a full time nursing gig and buying a home I am 😵‍💫 so just popping in to say I’m still here and expect to be sharing some more special shoots as we finalize our next move 📦 🏡

You all know I’m crazy about my madly in love couples but did you know that I love shooting elopements too? If you’re contemplating dropping the stress of a large, traditional wedding and having an intimate celebration, I’d love to chat 🫶🏻

Don’t mind me dreaming of cozy weather, pumpkin spice and Sunday football 😴 I don’t know about you guys but I am so over summer and this heat!

Anyways, on a more important note…these cuties get married in two months and I can’t wait! So excited for them 🫶🏻
