photographer + planner turned bestie

Your lead photographer & planner of JLP. Those who know me best know that I have a deep love for adventure. Born and raised right here in Colorado, I'm blessed to call this state my home!

One of the perks of booking JLP is access to our in-depth wedding guides — off-the-grid ceremony locations, lodging, local vendors, my best tips & tricks — our knowledge & love for Colorado is such a big part of our business.

With our passion for photography so deeply rooted in adventure, it brings us the most joy to share these wild places with you.

is my love language

If I’m not capturing your nature-filled wedding celebration, expect my phone to be on airplane mode: long sunset hikes, alpine lake backpacking excursions & scenic road trips are my sweet escape!

Accompanied by my boyfriend Ian and our dog, Remi girl, we travel all over the American Southwest camping on cliffsides, rafting through canyons, and soaking up the sunshine.

reviews

Jess was not just our photographer; she became an integral part of our special day. She scouted out the most breathtaking locations for our Crested Butte Wildflower Wedding, ensuring that every shot was nothing short of magical. Her eye for detail and her ability to make us feel at ease in front of the camera made the entire process so enjoyable.

My husband and I eloped in Colorado and did a sunrise wedding. Jessica did an amazing job at scouting, planning, and being so detailed orientated. It was honestly a magical day. I had expectations for who our photographer would be and that was someone who loves the outdoors, great communicator, willing to make our vision come alive, and down to earth. Jessica was all that and MORE.

— AMANDA & ISAIAH, SUNRISE ELOPEMENT COUPLE

Jess was absolutely amazing! My fiancé and I weren't too comfortable in front of the camera starting out, but within 10 minutes she had music blasting and had us genuinely laughing. By the end of it my fiancé had said he had so much fun (not something I thought I'd hear him say going into an engagement photoshoot). The pictures are better than anything I could have imagined.

— NATALIE & JACK, COLORADO ENGAGEMENT PHOTO COUPLE

Not only have the photos looked AMAZING!!! but the comfort and genuine happiness she brought to our day was unmatched. As a lgbtq+ couple, it can be nervwracking finding a photographer but from the jump we knew Jess was the one. I couldn’t recommend her enough and I’m so excited for whomever is reading this to experience their special moment captured by Jess.
