Oregon & Hawai'i Photographer
your love story,
one moment at a time
documenting
Telling your story through heartfelt imagery is at the core of everything I do. It’s about more than just capturing moments — it’s about preserving the emotions, connections, and narratives that make your story uniquely yours. With home bases in Hawai'i and a passion for traveling worldwide, I’m ready to meet you wherever your love story takes you. Documenting your incredible connection and knowing these memories will be yours to relive for a lifetime is what inspires me every day. I can’t wait to bring your story to life in a way that’s as meaningful as the love you share.
Heartfelt photography for the wildly in love
Portland-based photographer serving all of Oregon, Washington, and Hawai'i
+ wherever your love takes you!
I’m a photographer with a zest for life and a passion for capturing its most beautiful moments in a cinematic way. Born and raised on the breathtaking island of Kaua'i, my upbringing deeply influences my photography. I strive to create images that don’t just show how a moment looks, but immerse you in how it feels — creating the same awe and connection that Kaua'i has given me. Through my lens, I aim to bring your story to life with authenticity and artistry.
Aloha, I'm jessica
Photographer based in Portland, OR, with deep roots in Kaua'i, HI.
Dream of magical golden hour adventures with windswept hair, deep belly laughs, stolen glances, intimate touches, and heartfelt smiles.
Don’t mind me third-wheeling so hard that I’m basically your unofficial hype person and snack carrier.
You're My People
Love the idea of reliving your day through timeless, cinematic photos that tell your unique story,
"She is so talented and really captured the day through a creative lens. We’d recommend her to all our friends and family!"
“My wife and I are both wedding photographers and we knew when we got engaged the only person we wanted to hire for our wedding was Jessica.”
"We did our engagement photos with her and I was so happy to know how easy it was to work with her. She was open to all of our ideas, respected our time, got all of the shots I asked for (plus many more) and had great energy! She makes you feel at ease on such a stressful day. You won’t regret going with her for your big day!"
“I’m SO glad I chose Jessica to be our wedding photographer!”
Her words brought positive energy and excitement to planning my wedding right from the start. Fast forward to the day of my wedding (which was a hot mess because everything went wrong with set up), Jessica was so kind and willing to help me make things right. There was one point I was at my venue alone (the bride), because everyone else was running so late. Jessica offered to help me finish setting up and helped make me more comfortable. Throughout the night she helped me keep things on track with photos since I didn’t have a coordinator. Had she not done this, I would have missed out on important pictures that I wanted. I emphasized to Jessica how much I wanted candid photos of us and our guests rather than many posed. Jessica executed my request flawlessly. The pictures turned out absolutely stunning!! I will cherish them forever and be grateful for the kindness and energy Jessica brought to my wedding. I will absolutely hire her again for my next event! I can’t stop looking at how great the pictures are!
“From the moment I emailed Jessica, she was extremely fast, responsive, and kind.”
"I planned everything last minute for my big July wedding and reached out to Jessica in February. She rescued us just as everyone was booked for the year. I was so busy and forgot to check in on my part but she reached out closer to the wedding to make sure everything was set and ready to go. Throughout the day of as things got hectic and my coordinator was running around, she kept me on schedule to remind me when cocktail hour begun or when it was time for the bouquet toss etc. I cannot wait to recommend her to my friends and family. Jessica, keep doing what you do and keep being YOU."
“Jessica is amazing and not only are her photography skills great but she is an extremely courteous person.”
"Very well thought out. Even helped beyond her job. Truly a great person to work with! She definitely someone to have capture your special moment! And a big recommend in my book! Thank you so much jess for getting these done for me!"
