I'm so excited you're considering me as a part of your wedding day. I'm deeply honored whenever someone selects me to be a part of this special moment and I'll give you the experience to show that!
My husband and I tied the knot on May 20, 2011. It's been the best 12 years of my life! He's my best friend, fellow foodie, travel companion and Netflix partner.
I first fell in love with photography at my best friend's wedding and never looked back.
Now days you can find me taking a gazillon photos of my two children, binging a Netflix show or reheating that cup of cold coffee #momlife
Welcome!
Congrats, you're engaged! I know this time is exciting but can also be overwhelming. I'm here to make this process seamless for you. I'd love to buy you a cup of coffee (in person or virtually), and hear about your plans for your wedding day!
Let's Chat!
You're engaged!
Once your date is officially reserved with a 50% retainer, I'll send over a few goodies to help you prepare for the big day. I'm happy to serve as a resource for vendor recommendations, timeline guidance and more!
Date Booked
Make it official
Engagement sessions can take place anytime after you've booked me up until the wedding day! There's no "good" or "bad" time to take your photos. Do you have a favorite season? Or a specific look you're going for? Let's figure out the perfect time to make your session what you're envisioning!
Engagement Session
I check in about two months before the wedding to start chatting about timeline specifics, special details, family formal shot lists, special traditions and anything else I should know about your big day.
Wedding Day Prep
It's finally here! The day the two of you say "I Do" and dance the night away surrounded by your family and friends. Just know I'm excited to celebrate and capture your wedding day. It's going to be awesome.
The Big Day
You can expect your photos to be delivered via an online gallery within about 4-6 weeks of your wedding. At that time, I'll also send over details about preserving your images through prints and albums.
They're Here!

Before I was even engaged I knew I wanted Jessica as my photographer. I'm so, so thankful I was able to have her as a part of my wedding day. I am absolutely in love with our wedding photos!
Don't wait another minute!

Jessica is pure magic. When you hire her you're not only getting a photographer. You're getting a friend, coordinator, caretaker - really everything you need on a wedding day! Thank you again and again!
Absolutely
perfect!

REVIEW NO. 3 OF 3
I'm a big believer that images aren’t meant to solely exist in a digital space. One day, Instagram will be gone, your phone will be replaced and images that you can physically hold in your hand will be the best way to remember those precious moments I captured.
Think about this fact: fifteen years ago, if I had delivered you digital images, they would have been on a floppy disk. With the fast updates to technology, you would have no way to access those images today. Even the online galleries I deliver will eventually fade away.
One of the best ways to make your wedding memories last is by ordering an album. These high quality professionally designed albums come in a variety of colors. These aren’t the same albums your parents' wedding photos came in. They’re modern, lay perfectly flat and look incredible on a coffee table.

DUPLICATE PARENT ALBUMS
Wedding albums are available a la carte or as part of your wedding collection.
After I deliver your gallery, I'll work with you to order prints and design an album that will become an heirloom for your family.
Albums must be prepaid before the design process begins and typically take between 6 to 8 weeks to complete (not including revisions).
With the exception of printing errors, all albums are non-returnable. Albums may be ordered anytime before or after the wedding day. The holiday deadline for beginning an order is October 1st.
Engagement sessions are one of the highlights of your wedding experience with me! Unless you're a professional model (and I have shot those before!) you probably need a little prompting and encouragement when you're in front of the camera. Don't worry - I promise to make you feel confident and amazing while you're being photographed. In fact, that's one of the compliments I get all the time from my couples!
Engagement sessions allow us to have a bit of "practice" together before the wedding day!
I'd so much rather show up on your big day as friends who've already worked together. I love seeing couples slid into poses seamlessly because they've already done this with me before! We don't always have a ton of time together on a wedding day, and this ensures we can make the most of our time together!
Also, engagement sessions make for fun photos! We can be a bit more creative and try out a new location. They are also the perfect addition for your save the date, bridal shower or wedding website!
All collections include a complimentary engagement session.
Engagement Sessions
Celebrating a season
Whenever you would like! Do you have a favorite season or a look you're going for? We can talk about all the details after booking!
A:
When should we schedule our engagement session?
q:
I typically add travel fees on to any wedding outside of a 60 mile radius from my home in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Fees vary depending on location so ask me for more details.
A:
do you charge travel fees for weddings?
q:
Galleries typically include anywhere between 500 and 1000 photos. The exact amount varies from wedding to wedding - usually based on how long you hire me for. A good rule of thumb is about 75-100 photos per hour of coverage. All edited images will be delivered to you via an online gallery. These are YOUR photos - so please print and share to your heart's content!
A:
How many photos will we receive?
q:
Fantastic! To reserve your wedding date, I'll need a completed contract and a 50% non-refundable deposit. The remaining balance is due 1 month before the wedding date. Payment plans available upon request.

We love your work and want to book. What is the next step?
