I'm your friend behind the camera, your hype girl! I photograph couples, families, weddings, elopements, and seniors. Seeing couples through engagement and beyond is my favorite. I hold so much value in creating lasting relationships with my clients - it makes my job so fulfilling.
From a small beach town in Massachusetts, I have always been inspired by the hazy ocean horizon, the glowing sunset colors, and the restorative tranquility of breathing a deep lungful of salty air. I was 15 when I started offering senior picture portrait sessions for less than $50 a session. That is when I knew I was a photographer, crafting an image that my subject loved, that genuinely flattered and embodied them.
Now in 2021, I am living in Washington state with my high school sweetheart husband, Max, who flies P8's in the Navy, and our two Aussie mixes, Penny and Goose. In my life, it is important to me to slow down, breathe deeply, and cultivate spirituality. I believe in energy vibrations, the power of meditation, and the ability to manifest your wildest dreams. As an artist, my goal is to create photographs that truly capture your essence. Let's bask in golden glow, get sand on our toes, and capture your right now forever.
Hello! My name is Jackie, I am a local photographer in the South Sound/Tacoma area. A little bit about me, I was born and raised here in our beautiful Washington State and I love new adventures so if you know of a good spot for photos be sure to let me know! I am all ears! I have loved photography since I received my first camera at the age of 7 for a family road trip. After High School I continued with photography for family and friends, attended a few courses in college, started my own business and never looked back!
When I’m not behind my camera I really love adventures with the family! Whether its a day trip to the ocean, going camping or a drive to get dinner. Be sure to ask me about our latest adventure. In February of 2016 I met my best friend and rock, what started as a “sure” turned into a few months of dates and in August 2016 we were married. We have three amazing children, ages 15, 8 and almost 1 year. All three just so happened to be 7 1/2 years apart.
As your photographer, I want to be more than just a vendor – my hope is that we come out of our experience together as new lifelong friends! I aim to tell your story by documenting those grand moments, along with the more quiet and intimate pieces of your life. I want to capture you as your true self — all the epic stories, laughs, and special memories that you will fondly look back upon.
All families have their own special love story, I can’t wait to hear more about yours!! I am looking forward to meeting you and capturing your family's incredible memories you will cherish for a lifetime.
JS Photography offers portrait sessions not limited to Families, High School and College graduating Seniors, Maternity, Newborn and Milestone, 1st Birthday Cake Smash and Milk Bath Portraits. I also offer special occasion portraits such as Homecoming/Prom, Weddings, Couples/Engagement, and Boudoir Portraits.
Family sessions are about love. I take a storytelling and photojournalistic approach, and aim to capture the true essence of my clients. I take pride in my ability to put clients at ease with a warm, bubbly energy and welcoming demeanor. Not everyone is super comfortable in front of the camera, so I make sure to bring 110% to every session so I can ensure I capture photos that you will love. The most important element to my sessions is having fun and making memories. Moments and details are elegantly captured, offering fresh perspective through emotionally charged images.
If you're looking for a fun outing and beautifully captured, high-quality images that will preserve your family story for years, The Classic: Family Session is for you. Come join and let's make some memories! If you're looking for a longer session and the freedom to travel to multiple locations, have a look at the Half-and-Half Session on my portfolio.
The most amazing things in life are not the things around us. They are the places we see, people we are with and the memories we create. Capturing those beautiful memories are so important. I am here to help!
Imagine sitting in your favorite chair in the living room, from across the room you see a photography hanging on the wall of you and your beautiful family. When was the last time you had your family photographs on the walls updated? As a mom of myself, I catch myself saying “our children are growing up way too fast” on almost a daily basis.
I would love to be able to capture your beautiful family photos that you would cherish for a lifetime.
Family Portraits are done in an outdoor setting year-round. In-studio sessions are also available for families who would prefer a more stylized look.
