My approach
Ready for photos that feel modern, romantic, and unapologetically you? I’ll guide you into poses that look natural but hit like a Vogue cover, and throw in some playful prompts to ease the nerves and bring out your real personalities. You’ll look like yourselves — just turned all the way up.
The Experience
You’re not alone — I’ll be there guiding you every step of the way, hyping you up so you can actually enjoy having your photo taken.
During portraits and family photos, I step in with gentle but clear direction to keep things smooth and stress-free. The rest of the day, I’m more like a fly on the wall — catching every candid, every detail, every little moment you didn’t even know was happening.
If the thought of being in front of a camera makes your anxiety spike, I’ve got you. I’ll help you relax, be present, and focus on each other — so your photos feel just like the day did: fun, real, and full of love.
I genuinely believe anyone can look like a Vogue model — all you need is a little trust and the right direction (which I’ve got covered).
I hear it on a weekly basis: "My partner is really camera shy." Or "I'm SO awkward in photos."

"I have compared my wedding photos to friends and they all wished their photos had turned out like mine. There isn’t a single one I don’t love. She understands what it’s like to be going through this big day a thousand miles a minute and keeps you calm and care-free the entire time. The best decision of our entire wedding was hiring Jill as our photographer."

Kind Words
Kaitlyn & Dustin
"Jill was the first vendor we booked for our San Diego wedding and we’re so glad we did! She did an absolutely phenomenal job. We were a bit nervous about having so much attention on us, but Jill made us feel so comfortable and provided a lot of guidance. We were having so much fun by the end of the engagement session we barely noticed she was there."
Kaitlyn & Dustin
"Because we were already comfortable with Jill from the engagement session, the wedding felt like seeing an old friend! Our photos are incredible and really captured not just the details, but the feeling of the day. We’ve loved seeing the small moments we missed or forgot happened and will treasure these photos forever!"
Warm, radiant, modern. Each photo is carefully edited with exceptional attention to detail. The magic I create in post production will give you those soft, creamy skin tones and sparkling eyes. You're going to look like you--but the version of you that just stepped out of a magazine!
Yes!
My editing style leans more on the lighter side but it doesn't actually fit into either of those boxes. It's important to note that my editing style is consistent for ALL weddings. However, a log cabin venue on a rainy day is going to look darker in photos than a white tent on a sunny day.
No, sorry. I think it's really important that you find a photographer who has the style you're looking for!
You can expect to see your engagement session photos in 30 days and your wedding photos within 90 days.
I have second photographers who have worked with me for years. They know my style really well so that could be a great addition for your wedding package! That being said, many of couples hire me to shoot solo since that's more budget-friendly. I'm confident that I'll capture your day flawlessly. All the big moments from all different angles.
If you plan on having 180+ guests, potentially yes. Less than that and it's not necessary due to the fast, efficient way I shoot. But whether your wedding is big or small, if it's in the budget and it's important to you, go for it! The biggest benefit of having a two photographers is that you'll get more photos of guests.
That depends on how long your wedding is and if I'll be shooting the whole time or if there is any down time (for example driving from the ceremony to the reception). I can't give an exact number, but I promise not to keep any images to myself! If it looks great, it will be in your gallery.
Absolutely! That's what I do best! I don't expect you to pose yourself at all. You can just relax and I'll guide you the whole way and give you fun prompts to help bring out your personalities. I'll get all the best angles and make sure you and your partner look your best!
Heck yes you can! We'll shoot with your dog for the first 20 min. or so, and then the rest of the time will just be you two. I suggest bringing a friend who can either take your dog home after, or stand by with them so that you're free to focus on each other for the remainder of your session. You'll want to bring treats, a nice leash, and a lint roller.
