Y’all, I’m going to be an Aunt!!

March 7, 2019

Ahhh!! My family and I are so excited for the arrival of sweet Baby B in just a few short weeks. To say Leah is glowing is literally an understatement. Being a momma looks so good on her. My little sister has the kindest soul I’ve ever met and I know she is going to be the best momma to her baby boy. Hearing the excitement in her voice as she talks about the arrival of her first child makes my heart so happy. I am so very proud of the amazing woman she has become.

Leah and Jon decided to photograph their maternity session at the same location we photographed their couples session just two years ago. Goose Creek State Park will now hold so many special memories for them. Leah and Jon, I am so excited for you both and this new adventure you’re embarking on as being parents together for this special little boy. Love you bunches!!

ABOUT Jess

That longing to hold onto everyday magic is what led me to photography. I’m drawn to the little things that often go unnoticed—the way excitement shows up in a child’s eyes, the comfort of being close, the feeling of togetherness that turns ordinary days into meaningful memories. When I’m not photographing families, you’ll find me thrifting for treasures, reading a good book, embroidering something by hand, soaking up beach days, or heading off on small adventures with the people I love most.

I approach each session with care and intention, focusing on connection rather than perfection. My goal is to create images that feel honest, warm, and deeply personal—photographs that allow you to return to this season again and again, remembering not just what it looked like, but how it felt.

Rooted in motherhood and shaped by my own journey into parenthood, I’m endlessly inspired by the quiet beauty of family life. I love slow mornings at home with my family—the kind filled with soft light, small rituals, and the tiny moments that send my daughter into fits of belly laughter. Those are the moments I wish I could freeze in time, the ones that remind me how fleeting and beautiful this season truly is.
