Testimonials
A little love from the people who’ve trusted me to capture their moments.
"We decided to try Jessica Kelley’s services for our first Christmas photos as a family of three, and we are beyond happy with the results. The whole experience, from booking to, meeting at Noel’s tree farm, to getting the final gallery, was fantastic. Jessica is seriously great with families and little kids. I was so nervous we would not be able to capture any happy moments with our very shy baby but Jessica so patient and fun, and her creative suggestions even managed to get our very serious-faced baby to start smiling for the camera!
Our session was a mini session, but I felt like we got everything and more than what we wanted. Jessica took her time with us and let my baby take the time to open up. The collection was large, and honestly, the hardest part was just trying to choose which beautiful images to keep. We loved the subtle, natural editing.
The photos look sharp and vibrant, perfectly enhancing the farm's beauty without looking fake or overly done. We definitely recommend Jessica if you want high-quality family photos. We'll be hiring her again in the future!"
"We are so thrilled with our experience with Jess. So easy, directed us to what poses she thought would look good and also took some my vision and made it come to life effortlessly. She is so good with the kids and she captured some breath taking photos that we will cherish forever!"
"Jess is amazing!!! She is so personable and fun to work with! Jess is very passionate in her job and it definitely shows how much love she puts into each photo session. She did such an amazing job with our mini fall shoot. Even though it was mini shoot she made sure our expectations were met in the short period and didn’t make us feel rushed. Plus we had a blast doing it. She makes everyone feel so comfortable and confident in the front of the camera. We received our gallery within 3 days. Every picture is absolutely stunning, made it extremely hard to choose! Each photo was crisp, vibrant and beautifully edited without feeling overdone."
"Jess has an amazing eye for pretty much anything she does! I’ve used her twice now for pictures. She is super personable and has kids of her own, so she understands how they can be. She captures them in their element, wild and free, behaving or not, and we loved this! Our kids are constantly on the move and full of personality. She brought little things to entertain and reward their attention, and shot us in the moment. It was a great way to showcase our family in pictures!"
"Jess took pictures of our family after I had struggled to find a good photographer who would take good pictures of a family of color and she did not disappoint. She led us through the whole session because I wasn’t even sure what I wanted. She made the kids comfortable, even got my son to smile! We love her and her work. Our pictures are so so beautiful, we got so many compliments. I would strongly recommend her as she is highly skilled, is very patient and just takes beautiful pics. I will always book her!"
"Jess is absolutely amazing! She did my elopement photos (her first I might add) and she absolutely blew me away! She greatly exceeded our expectations and just helped make the experience incredibly fun (not even an ounce awkward), with her glowing and silly personality! Did I mention she did this for us on HER birthday? The pictures came out incredible and I just can’t get enough of them! Jess truly is the sweetest and I would recommend her a million times over 🤩"
"Jess is truly so gifted. She not only captured our family so beautifully for our newborn in-home session, but made us feel so comforted, running on zero sleep and having a fussy baby that day! If you want incredible pictures and a photographer who makes you feel so at ease, she’s your girl ❤️"
"We had a wonderful family session with Jess! She took her time and was prepared with ideas and poses that gave us some beautifully natural photos. Highly recommended!"
"We had the absolute best experience with Jess Kelley Photography during our fall mini session! Jess made the entire process so easy and enjoyable—she instantly made us feel comfortable, and her calm, friendly presence put everyone at ease. Her daughter was amazing with our kids—they were completely enamored with her, which made for such natural, happy smiles.
We are blown away by the photos. Jess somehow captured both of our kids’ personalities perfectly in such a short session, and we already have our full gallery—only a day later! Every photo feels like a moment frozen in time, and we’re so incredibly grateful to have these beautiful memories to look back on. Highly, highly recommend Jess for anyone looking for a talented, kind, and professional photographer!"
