MY PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE
I would consider my style to be dreamy, a healing experience, realistic, full of love and laughter, highlighting womens empowerment, highlighting self love, sometimes whimsical, sometimes raw & bohemian.
I am inspired by what it means to be woman. What it means to be human. What it means to be connected with a higher power than myself. I am inspired by love, emotions of all kinds, releasing and acknowledging past hardships and present. I am inspired by the little things, the minor details. By nature, and all its perfect imperfections. Relating nature with us as people, seeing the energies that flow between us all. I am inspired by travel photographers, telling stories. Im inspired by what it truly means to be in the present moment. Challenging my beliefs.

A good friend of ours got us on to Jess. Their family had just done a shoot and spoke of the comfiness and ease of the day. And I have to agree, ours was just that. Jess made both of us (nervous first timers) feel like ourselves. We chose to shoot in one of our favourite places and it’ll go down as one of my favourite days there. Jess made the day feel like we were there with long time friends, just hanging out. Like our good friend, I can’t recommend Jess enough. Thanks again for a memorable day

We are incredibly fortunate to have come across such a passionate, creative and artistic photographer. Jess was able to capture beautiful images of myself, my partner and our dogs. Being such a lover of natural environments, Jess was able to help us decide on a perfect location for the shoot. I was nervous due to it being my first time having professional photos taken, however Jess brought a calming presence and a warm smile that was incredibly reassuring. Jess supported us to feel comfortable and natural, and was amazingly patient while capturing images of my over excited border collies. We are so thankful for the photos that we have, and would recommend Jess highly to anyone that is looking for images to treasure for a life time.

The photo shoot I did was Jess wasn’t just an ordinary photo shoot.. she bought out the self confidence and love in myself I had never felt before. Straight away I felt so calm, and the entire day Jess made me feel like me, a beautiful woman. Since that day my whole perspective on self love changed, and I’m so grateful Jess guided me into a stronger feeling of self acceptance. Not to mention the incredible photos that came afterwards.. I got so lost in this transformational day that I almost forgot there was a camera there! A beautiful day I’ll never forget

Jess is by far one of the most talented photographers I have ever met! I've never been confident in front of a camera and when I did my first photo shoot with Jess, she made me feel so comfortable and confident in my own skin. She helped me to feel like I was in my own element as well as to embrace all that I am. When I saw the photos, I actually felt beautiful. It was like she captured every unique and beautiful quality that I have on the inside and outside. Her photos are just pure magic and I'm so grateful that I got to experience such an incredible shoot with such a beautiful soul. I couldn't recommend her enough

My experience with Jess was one I’ll never forget. I’ve never met someone so open to connection and love, she allowed me to open up in a way that I had forgotten how to do. Her strength and compassion definitely show in her work. I could never repay her for the experience and I recommend it to anyone who wants to love life

My photoshoot with Jess... pure magic! I honestly can’t express into words how beautiful the photo shoot was and how much it did for my confidence at the time. Jess saw my vision as much as I did, she was very patient and calm throughout the entire experience and held space for me with grace and ease. Her work is phenomenal! I have recently used most of the shots taken from the photo shoot on my business Facebook page and my business Instagram page as well. The response has just been insane! Everyone loved them as much as we did! I highly recommend Jess and her craft and I can guarantee you will not be disappointed with the experience she offers from beginning to end. Thank you Jess!!

I have been lucky enough to know Jess for a number of years. She took some stunning promotional photos for my music, and from that first meeting with Jess I felt comfortable and at ease. Her creativity is next level, even where there are limited resources. I have also used Jess for live performances photography, and I am booking her for a shoot for the relaunch of my music brand. She is someone I can trust with my creative image

I cannot express my gratitude enough to Jess for the beautiful photo shoot and photos! The experience of being photographed pregnant, capturing the feminine beauty of growing life, was a powerful and nourishing one. Jess made this all possible by guiding me in the process. It was so much more than just taking pictures. It was a process of Jess making me feel comfortable to open to my feminine essence and vulnerability. Which she did perfectly! The photos are absolutely magickal! I will forever look on them and feel glowing, expanding, evolving, nourished and deeply feminine. I loved every second! Jess is amazing at what she does, and I cannot wait for my next photo shoot with her!
