what’s it like to work with me?
My #1 goal is for you to feel safe and comfy being yourselves. I want us to celebrate who you are personally and together.
Inclusivity, diversity, self love and body positivity are important af to me. It’s a huge part of why I love what I do so much.
I prefer to stand back and capture moments as they are
I draw some of my inspiration from cinema— but ya’ll aren’t modeling or acting here. I’ll help you feel comfy enough to bring out the natural dyanamic between you two. I want to photograph you being yourselves!
-
When you look back on your wedding day, how would you like to remember it? The silly moments, the natural laughter, the real emotions?
Your photos can reflect all of this, organically and unscripted.
-
I’ll be quietly observing moments throughout your day, piecing together images that tell your story.
You can enjoy your day while I create beautiful candids that document it all.
-
The only posing I might do besides family photos, is during the allotted time for portraits.
Your portraits will be crafted to reflect who you are and how you express your unique love for each other.
-
You and your love are unique, let’s represent that in your photos too.
The same way that no movie or piece of art is the same, I completely custom edit each photo in your session. The edits are made to fit the scenery, your personal skin tones, lighting, mood and overall vibe.
Colors play a huge part in conveying emotion. I take my time to analyze what colors will best capture the moment.
You’ll be delivered a gallery that will be completely unique and custom tailored to fit you.
Your artistic documentary photographer.
Hi, I’m Jess
(she/her)
Things that light me up
Inclusivity, being in nature, kindness, traveling, art, indie films, noticing the little things, weird humor, dancing (awkwardly), live music, iced coffee, sun beams, road trips, halloween, really good gluten free/vegan pizza, petting cute lil dogs/kitties and mossy trees.
I’ve been obsessed with photography since I got my first legit camera when I was 17. (I’m now 33). I started out by doing fashion photography and working with local models. That love morphed into something deeper and more meaningful for me when I discovered Wedding Photography. I haven’t looked back since.

I want to start by saying that Jess isn’t like other wedding photographers. She doesn’t tell you what you need without asking, she takes the time to listen to you and incorporate your ideas, needs and preferences. She was amazing to work with from start to finish- professional and capable yet friendly and down to earth, and flexible throughout many date changes!
Best of all your photos will look natural, candid and joyful, in part because Jess is so easy to be around. She clearly puts time, attention and detail into all aspects of her photography and that really comes through in her photos.
Book her- you won’t be disappointed! We feel really grateful to have found her.

Jess Glass was AMAZING to work with and we cannot wait to work with her again soon! We originally found Jess on the Knot when searching for a photographer who could capture our wedding the way we wanted.
Jess set up calls with us to learn about our story and listen to us to understand exactly what we were looking for- she captured our wedding day beyond our expectations.
All our photos turned out beautiful; looking at them was exactly how they felt - magical, whimsical, the happiest day! The best part was Jess captured the photos we wanted when we wanted and aide from that she didn’t pull us away from our special day; we enjoyed every moment. Jess’s photos make you feel like you’re reliving that moment. We highly recommend Jess Glass.
