I met Tahiris at the Basilica for a her headshot session. She wanted several different poses for LinkedIn and social media. She opted for several business-like images and then wanted some fun, more casual ones as well. She was so comfortable in front of the camera and we had a lovely time together.

I am so excited to share with you our living room’s before and after photos. There is so much I love about a home. I watched my mother flip though many magazines (before we had Pinterest) and lovingly decorate my childhood home. Home is our safe place, a haven, the place we can process emotions […]

I remember my Grandma Myers tending to her plants with such care and they would grown and blossom and I always thought how easy it looked. Well, until I tried it for myself I didn’t realize the time and diligence you have to spend to get a house full of lovely greens. But through Covid […]

Last Friday we celebrated our tenth wedding anniversary. And by celebrated, I mean we both opened the ice cream shop and then I drove to PA to photograph a wedding. Several years ago I would have looked at us and felt sad. Sure, a trip to Puerto Rico (our favorite place on the earth) would’ve […]

One particular thing I want to work on this year is keeping things cleaned out and to a minimum. We lived in a one bedroom apartment or small rental for years and now that we own a home I am determined to not fill every nook and cranny. I love open and “white” space. It […]

Hello 2020! I can hardly believe it! When I look back on 2019 I realize how much you-my clients-propelled my year forward and made some of my happiest memories.  I have some exciting things planned for Jessica Burdge Photography in the coming year and I hope you stick around for it. My hope is to […]

My friend Liz and I got were sitting at our favorite local coffee shop and she mentioned how fun it would be to go to New York City over Christmas time. I love everything about bustling cities at Christmas and all the lights and told her I was in! We met at Union Station at […]

This year both sides of our family aren’t giving Christmas gifts. I adore giving gifts but it does quickly become so distracting from the real meaning of Christmas. We, of course will get the grandchildren a little something; but in case you need a few last minute gift ideas here are several ideas: Good set […]

I recently went to the local library and picked up a few books to read during the fall evenings. Since it gets dark so much faster I can struggle with feeling tired early and all I want to do is curl up on the couch-preferably with a blanket, slippers and candle burning nearby-with a book. […]

Eat. Shop. Linger. All three of these things I enjoy doing (well, the shopping is debatable. I get restless and am a power shopper. I’m ready to leave the store in about ten minutes. I do love Amazon though…) and they all come together beautifully at the barn sale. This year could not have been […]
