let me tell you mine..

Hello! I'm Jessica. Aside from my love of photography, I am also an avid reader, proud cat mom, and I love travelling.

I was born and raised in St. Catharines, Ontario, and never imagined leaving my hometown—until I took a leap of faith to pursue my passion. I moved 6 hours away to Ottawa to study photography at Algonquin College, where I graduated with honours. Afterward, I returned to the Niagara region, ready to build my career as a wedding and family photographer.

I love random chats about life, travelling and creating art.

Modern & true to life PHOTOGRAPHY


Photography is all about light, composition and most importantly emotion.


Photography has always been my passion because it allows me to capture and preserve moments that would otherwise fade with time. I’m drawn to capturing authentic emotions, genuine laughter, and real smiles—those fleeting, meaningful moments that tell a story and last a lifetime.
