Editing & Retouching

Natural edits that look like you!

No funky colors, weird presets, or fad editing styles. I stick to bright, bold, and natural. I have put in HOURS of education and practice to nail that retouching sweet spot. I do not airbrush out every detail. You will see freckles, pores, and hairs. What I try to do is remove anything that is temporary and make you look just like you have absolutely flawless skin and perfect makeup.

I need this!

hair & makeup on location

You don't have to decide between two looks or be nervous about a smudge. The Luxe session option allows me to bring along our makeup artist to change up styles (and touch up if needed) in between outfits to give you a wider variety of looks in your final gallery. Start with some elegant, loose waves and finish up with something super cute and casual, like a top-knot or messy bun or braid!

I'm Jessica

Your Senior Photographer!

I'm also your session day BFF. Your flyaway fixer, bra strap-hider, and model-walk instructor.
I'll be right by your side while planning your session, reassure you when you're nervous about posing, go gaga over the resulting images as they're happening (I honestly can't help it), and be the total goof you need to make you laugh for real.
And when it's time to flip through those final images, I'll be excited right there with you.

FAQs

I'm worried I won't look like me


This is my #1 asked question and biggest worry, for my seniors AND moms. When it comes to makeup and retouching, we will NEVER make our seniors look overdone or fake.

What in the world do I wear?


All of my seniors get a lot of session prep material, including a fashion consult and personalized advice based on your skin tone and body shape.

I've got you covered!

Do I have to order products?


The all-inclusive LUXE SESSION does include an optional in-person live design ordering session where you can order any product at a one-day 20% discount, but there's NO pressure to order. (but I do encourage printing your images)

prints are forever

When should I book?


I encourage booking EARLY so you have plenty of time to plan. At least 6 weeks in advance is best.

book early

Do you shoot boy sessions?


I sure do! While boys don't like to have full-blown sessions with multiple outfits QUITE as often as girls do, I do have a boy session now and then. Though I won't make you wear makeup, I do help with outfits (and no judgement if you DO want to be styled)

boys can be pretty too

Investment

all-inclusive sessions/luxury experience

I offer ALL-INCLUSIVE sessions that include session, professional hair and makeup, and your final images.

My senior sessions are a once in a lifetime experience with professional hair and makeup styling, fashion consults, and a variety of looks and locations. These are images that will be cherished forever and the next time you're photographed with this much production will most likely be your wedding day!
