I’m Jessica!
A documentarian at heart, I’ve always loved the way we can use art to tell stories.
Born and raised in Ludington, Michigan and live just a couple miles from Lake Michigan, I love and am inspired by the water. I’ve lived in Puerto Rico, Arizona, and Arkansas with some short stints in other places mixed in, and now there are just so many places that I feel at home.
Some of my favorite things
Potatoes in any and every form
My orange cat Carl. There’s a tattoo of him in a cowboy hat mixed into my sleeve and he’s the coolest
Vintage t-shirts & denim
Summer bonfires and sunsets
Peach whiskey or Prosecco
Out west
Shooting film
Summer days at the beach
Breakfast for dinner
Mountain bikes
Road trips
Farmhouse front porches
Thunderstorms
I love storytelling portraits and approaching things with a photojournalistic viewpoint. I am a noticer. A storyteller. I strive to anticipate moments, connection, and laughter. I romanticize life, and I truly believe that viewpoint to be so important.
