welcome to my journal

Hi friend! My name is Jessica, I am a newborn and family photographer based in Washington Dc. I find it an absolute honor to photograph you with your little ones. I adore baby toes and that unforgettable newborn smell. 

I am so blessed to meet the sweetest families through my photography. This family came all the way from Oregon! And to all you boy-mammas out there…just because you have boys does not mean you can’t accessorize. Courtney did an amazing job with her boys outfits. Enjoy their morning session at Upper Senate Park.

The Edwards Family |Upper Senate Park, DC

Daniel and I have known this sweet family for years. We had to reschedule due to weather but it was so worth it. We had the perfect fall evening. It was warm and the trees were starting to get more colorful. We started at Lower Senate Park and finished the session as the sun set […]

The Bush Family |Lower Senate Park, DC

In the past year I have gotten to know Margaret a lot better and truly treasure our friendship. She is genuine, loyal, and always surprising me with little gifts. She is a lovely example of a true lady. I’m so honored she wrote for the Motherhood series and shared a huge part of her heart. […]

Margaret -Story of Motherhood

It seems like just yesterday that I took little Noah’s newborn photos; 6 months simply fly by. This session is full of fun personalities. With 3 little boys, there was a lot of rough and tumble and the brothers clearly adore each other! Enjoy there at-home session on Capitol Hill.

“Let them be little, cause they’re only that way for a while. Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle. Just let them be little.”

The P Family -Washington, DC

The one thing I love about DC is all the great locations it has to photograph families. There are countless parks to choose from! I met the Roche family at Dumbarton Oaks Park. It has beautiful architecture, a large grassy area and even a small pond with ducks. It had been a year since I […]

The Roche Family -Washington, DC

This family! I have photographed them at least 5 times over the past two years. From births, to birthdays to holiday cards; we’ve done it together. They choose a new location every session and it’s so fun to see where we will end up. We’ve walked around their neighborhood, visited the National Gallery of Art […]

The Brady Family -FDR Memorial, DC

To say the weather was hot is an understatement. The thing about DC summers is the humidity. It was well into the 90s but we kept the session date. All three were troopers, even little Axel. His favorite toy is his soccer ball which you’ll see in most of his photos. I love it when […]

The Bear Family -Washington, DC

Alison and I grew up together-it’s been years since I’ve seen her. Our paths crossed in WV when she was visiting her sister and I was visiting mine. So timely I got to photograph her family on Mother’s Day. Enjoy a peak into her sweet little family!

The Hershberger Family | Shinnston, WV

Baby M was positively perfect with her dark hair and blue eyes. I drove to their Capitol Hill home for the first sets of portraits-this is my favorite place to photograph newborns. The baby is the most comfortable during at-home sessions and each home has it’s own unique character. After, we walked to a nearby […]
