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 met the Johnson family at the Bishop’s Garden on the most perfect fall evening. The light was soft and warm and they were the cutest family. Stephanie warned me that her two year old doesn’t enjoy photos, but I just smiled. I love a good challenge and we got some adorable images of her […]

The Johnson Family | National Cathedral, DC

Allison reached out to me asking if I could take family photos because her son was graduating and they wanted something special to document the day. They had the most lovely home! Because it was raining so hard we had to make it quick, but they were so kind and accommodating. The fluffy family member […]

The Nyholm Family -Washington, DC Family Photographer

I love “growing” with my clients. I photographed this sweet family when Aiden was just a few months old. It’s so fun seeing them as a family of four and watching the two brothers’ bond as they interact. We met near Union Station at this special green space that comes alive in the springtime. The […]

The Baker Family -Washington, DC Family Photographer

It feels like yesterday I took Spencer’s newborn photos and here we are almost a year later! Campbell is an incredible big-brother and it’s so fun watching them interact together. Their home is nestled in a quiet DC neighborhood. It was drizzling the day of their session so we shot most of their photos on […]

The Zink Family -Washington DC Family Photographer

This family is incredible. They love the Lord, have two sweet sons through adoption, and are so invested in their community. Gretchen was one of the first woman who reached out to me when I first moved to DC. The gift of friendship is so wonderful….especially when you are in a new city and feel […]

The Brandt Family -Washington DC Family Photographer

I’ve known the Durney family for years and finally had the honor of photographing them. They are about as relaxed as they come! Which makes them perfect to photograph. They snuggled, gave butterfly kisses and were simply a pleasure to hang out with for an hour. The afternoon was perfect and the golden sun gave […]

The Durney Family -Washington, DC Family Photographer

The MacCabe family is so special to me. I see the kiddos several times a week at school or local parks. They make you believe in the strength of a family. They are fun, loving, creative and hard working. It shows in the way they interact with each other. We met in the morning at […]

A Casual Outdoor Family Session

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 […]

Welcoming Baby M |Washington, DC Newborn

Danny and I have known Tom and Rachel since we moved to Dc. They are fun, genuine and dear friends of ours. We walked to one of their favorite parks Sunday afternoon. This beautiful fall weather has me spoiled. The leaves are in full color and there’s something so warm about November light. Enjoy this […]

The Slabach Family -Washington, Dc

Meet sweet Eloise…and big brother Mac. Toddlers always make a newborn session, well any session for that matter, interesting. They are so unpredictable. Some photographers have told me that’s why they don’t enjoy taking family photos. I’m quite the opposite. I love the unexpected movement, action and personality a toddler brings to every session. Enjoy […]
