Introduction: My mission is to capture images that will evoke the emotion of the day whether it be a wedding or a family portrait session. I get so excited after the session, I can't wait to go home and start getting to work on the images. I post a blog within a day of the shoot and you have your images 1-2 weeks after! I give you plenty of images to pick from. My lifelong dream of becoming a photographer is finally a reality after attending Ringling College of Art and Design and receiving my bachelor's degree in Photography & Digital Imaging. I love meeting clients and hearing their story(because we all have one) and incorporating their personalities into the art of the photograph. I recently won Best of Weddings 2020,2021,2022,2023 for the KNOT and love doing weddings & portraits.

Jessica was awesome. She was super professional yet down to Earth. She was incredibly flexible as well, trying to navigate weather for the day of our shoot. She was patient as we were running a little late, and patient with our littlest one, who is definitely not the picture taker. She had good ideas and a good eye. Great experience. And the photos were beautiful and captured the moment better than we could’ve imagined. Thank you!

Details: Family or children's portrait • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • Candid (captured in the moment) • High fashion (highlights style) • Outdoors • Digital or online download • My home, venue, etc.

My fiancé and I used JVK photography for our engagement photos and were very happy with the photos. We had a difficult work schedule and she was able to work with us, and even reschedule due to weather. After the photo shoot we got our photos very fast, and they were beautiful. We got so many compliments, we are even thinking of using her for our wedding now as well.

Details: Posed engagement photoshoot • Natural or environmental • Outdoors • One location • Online or digital proofs and prints • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Jessica of JVK Photography was wonderful to work with and helped create an amazing engagement photography setting from the surprise moment "on one knee" to the family celebration that followed! The memories are preserved in beautiful photos with meaning, sentiment, and joy! I give Jessica my highest recommendation! Cheers Jessica!!!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge a set fee for family or senior portrait session which includes an edited download Link of images
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I meet at your choice location and take an hour of photos in several different areas and different combos of family members. Within 24 hours I post a few photos from the photo session so you can share with family and friends. I start editing the very next day and work until I finish them. My turnaround time is usually 1/2 weeks where I will email you a download link of the edited images. Copyrights to the customer, of course to print the photos how you like.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated from Ringling College of Art and Design with a bachelors degree in Photography and Digital Imaging.
