Hey, I’m Jackie!

I turn your favorite people into artwork you get to live with every day. Because your memories deserve more than a camera roll, they deserve a place in your home or in your hands. This is your story and I want to make sure you have the best way to tell it.

This Is More Than a Photo Session

This is the moment your kids pile onto you laughing. The way your senior finally lets their real personality show. The little in-between glances you didn’t even realize were happening. I’m here to capture it and then help you turn it into something real. I want to help you create wall art, prints and albums. Photographs that you walk past every day and feel. Because if it’s not printed, it’s not finished!

What I Do (and Why I Love It)

I don’t just show up with a camera. I help you plan your session, guide you the whole way through, and then design artwork that actually fits your home and your life. From “what do we wear?” to “where should this hang?” I’ve got you! And yes, I care a lot about the details. The lighting, the emotions, and all the connections. It all really matters to me.

A Few Things About Me

  • I grew up in a tiny Northern California town called Weed. (yes, really!)
  • I have an amazing husband and I'm a mom of three wonderful kids.
  • I’ve spent over 10 years chasing light in the Pacific Northwest.
  • My photography superpower is lighting and I can find it anywhere.
  • I will absolutely hype you up during your session because it’s part of the job and enjoy doing it.
  • I believe moms belong in photos—right now, exactly as they are!
  • I’m slightly obsessed with albums and wall galleries. (okay… more than slightly)
  • I might burst into song when we nail the shot.

Why This Matters to Me

I didn’t always have this perspective. My own wedding photos? Let’s just say that they weren’t what I had hoped for and that stuck with me. It’s the reason I care so deeply about what I do, because these moments don’t come back. And your photos shouldn’t just be two dimensional stuck on your phone, they should be beautiful pieces of art that exist in the real world. They should be experienced. They should be held, seen and passed down.

Let’s Create Something You’ll Actually See and love Every Day

Not just photos. Not just files. Artwork that feels like your family. We can start with a simple phone consultation.
