Minneapolis Photographer specializing in custom maternity, newborn, child, family and senior portraits.
One of the things I am often asked is what I like best about my job. First off, I usually get caught up on the word ‘job’ as photography hasn’t felt like a ‘job’ yet. I’ve had a job…and this is very different! Yes, it is work…but work of the heart. So…I go to work..I…
Lots of lovely things going out to clients these days. Here is just one little beauty that was sent on it’s way this afternoon…
love.
Simple. Tranquil. Breathtaking. Beautiful work, ladies.
There are so many reasons to love you. Here is just one. You are the best buddy a little 4 year old girl could have. We love you so much! Happy Father’s Day !
I have been giggling about this all morning. Paul is just such a great sport…and an awesome dad. Looks like a good, good time was had by all!
Now that brought tears to my eyes..
I love this sweet session. Shannon contacted me to do a 2nd anniversary/family session and said right away, “but we don’t have kids (yet).” I told her kids are not a requirement . I love that they wanted to capture this time in their lives. Most of us have our wedding pictures and then there…
Could not be more excited about these photographs! You have such a gift. Thank you so much Jess 
What a gorgeous couple and such a great idea to do this session. Love it Jess!
They are wonderful pictures of wonderful people.
These are awesome photos! I love it!

…about North Carolina is this family… and the FOOD! So much so I ordered every side item the BBQ shack had to offer. Seriously, don’t even get me started…so yummy!
May I just tell you that I adore your work! I’ve enjoyed pouring over your blog pages and oohing and aahing over your images. Fantastic imagery!
As always… beautiful! Love the shots & the edits. Simply beautiful….
what i love most about MN…the bloody mary/beer shooters..
juuuust kidding. i loves you most.
and i love these too. sigh. my little scraggly fam. my lloydie, lee r and lu. love these to pieces.
what i love most. more than your exquisite photos. is the beautiful friendship that you two have and why/how it even exists! big hugs to both of you 
love this family too. love the rich greens in the first few.
It is no secret that it has taken my pug, Dudley, about 3 years to recover from losing his title as the only child . Pugs are a very emotional breed…and while wonderful with children…also want to be #1 in the eyes of their owners. So when we left him 4 years ago to travel…
So freakin’ cute! It took my dogs a while too but they are all in love now. I love that Miss P. is in her undies. Zach is always in his undies when we are home. He is in his undies in most of my picture of him. Too funny!
And you just MADE my Monday!! Those two stinkers are just TOO adorable!!
That is adorable!!!
awwww!
Last week I went to Durham, NC to shoot a wedding with Emily (more on that later). I had just enough time to squeeze in a session with this special little girl. Now all my clients are special but this peanut is extra special because she has a shared history with my daughter. Not only…
simply beautiful!
Words can not describe what amazing work do you
These photos are incredible! Miss Mallory could not be more darling! Exquisite.
Jess,
I love the last one so much! Please don’t move to NC. I would miss you so much and so would Leon and all my future babies.
you cannot move! i forbid it! these are so lovely.
gorgeous. wow. you captured some magic there. she is adorable and has quite the wardrobe.
That’s my girl. Thank you so much! I LOVE them!
love this session! I too have a slight obsession w/ North Carolina and would move there in a second!
There isn’t a formula for family portrait photography…there may SEEM like there is…but there isn’t . Your portrait session can be as unique as you are. I love collaborating to create art…and I love this family! I first worked with them last year…and was thrilled when they called to schedule another session. Both parents are…
What a beautiful family!!
Jess – this is such a great shoot – love all of the personality! love it!!!
Jessica… You are such an amazing photographer!! I love all of these photos. So creative, beautiful and fun!!
One of my favorite families and a fabulous bunch of photos! Soo much better than the old “everyone put on your denim!” shot. And of course mama looks ver’ nice in that dress.
We heart Jess! These are awesome and we had so much fun working with you. Thank you for being so open and collaborative in our editorial vision. You’re finishing is what sets you apart from the pack. We can’t thank you enough! We are already looking forward to next May!
Miss Jess – I think this is my favorite shoot of yours everrrr…..it’s absolute perfection! xo
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!
Its like a gorgeous editorial on life! What a beautiful family.
Babies in nature makes sense to me. New and fresh like spring…held in the earth’s arms. The world welcomes you sweet baby boy!
