ABOUT ME
Photo credit: Mae Beam Creative
First, I'll start by saying THANK YOU for taking a look at my work! I am a fourth grade teacher, photographer, and full-time mom + wife, located in the Omaha area. I married my husband, Danny, in 2019 after being together since 2013. Together, we have three kids, a chocolate lab, and a golden retriever. We spend most of our time at the baseball field or out camping with our family and friends. I'm an enneagram 9, Schitt's Creek, T. Swift, and JoBros fanatic. Whenever you see me, odds are you'll find me with coffee in my hand (shout out to our local coffeeshop who knows me personally at this point!)
When my kids were born, I told myself that I would be more intentional about taking photos of them as they grow up. Let's be honest, don't we all run to our photos when we're reliving and retelling memories or thinking of the people closest to us? Since this revelation (and being cooped up in the house during the 2020 pandemic), I've been working on mastering this art and can't wait to help you preserve your favorite memories, too! My intention is to give you images that capture and tell the story of you and your loved ones that you can look back at a cherish for many years to come.

"Jess did such an AMAZING job with my pictures! She made sure to get all the poses I was wanting and more. They were even better than I thought they’d be. I’ll for sure be getting pictures done with Jess in the future!!"

Jessica did our maternity photos for us back in April! She is great to work with, fun personality and easy to talk to. Has great ideas for poses and spots, but also willing to hear your opinion and ideas! Would definitely recommend her!

"Jess was amazing! She captured every moment that I was looking for perfectly and even the unexpected goofy fun and serious moments! She makes smiling easy with funny impersonations of people! I loved experiencing my senior photos with Jess and can’t wait to hire her for many other photo sessions! Thank you Jess for capturing my beautiful moments with your astounding and amazing photography skills!"

I was a bit nervous going into our family photos/one year old birthday session, but Jess was so easy to work with and immediately put me at ease! I was worried about our daughter not responding well to pictures, but Jess was so good with her! She got some amazing shots and I will treasure the pictures forever!

"Jess was so great to work with!! As a planner, I was really impressed that she took the initiative to scout our ceremony and reception site so she knew exactly where she wanted to take photos of our couple.
Her response time was prompt, she stayed on top of the timeline, and best of all she is just a kind human. Can’t wait to work with her again!"
