The Wedding Experience
Your experience lasts a lot longer than your wedding day.
It started when you got engaged and ends with your ✨stunning✨ photos in an album. But right now? You’re in the middle of it and balancing a lot.
You want to find a photographer who is going to capture exactly what you hoped for, help you juggle the logistics of the biggest party you’ll ever plan, and help you have a good time while you do all of it.
Jessie completely blew us away. She has a personality that makes you feel at ease, she is quirky and bubbly and just sparkles. We did not just have a photo shoot, we had FUN. How cool is that? Jessie captured moments that we can cherish for many happy years to come, and we are so happy that we got the chance to meet and work with her. We plan to use her for upcoming anniversary shoots and I sing her praises to anyone who needs a photographer for their upcoming wedding. Jessie is an amazingly talented and beautiful person inside and out! She was more like a friend than a business provider. My wife and I are so thankful for all she has done for us since the beginning of our engagement. Highly, highly recommend!
We did not just have a photo shoot, we had FUN!

Here’s where we move you from overwhelmed to excited.
(Spoiler alert: it includes a lot of dad jokes.)
I feel like I’m not supposed to just tell you that I’m awesome, but who makes the rules around here anyway?
Ok fine, I’m honestly just terrible at selling people on things. I don’t know how to say, “Hi, I’m Jessie. I promise I’m really good at taking photos. But also? I’m energetic, quite funny, and I’ll make sure that taking photos on your wedding day is one of your favorite memories.” See? It makes me sound really full of myself.
Don't listen to me. Listen to them:
"I can’t express how incredibly happy I was with Jessie as my photographer!!! She was not only a blast to work with but really took the time to get to know myself and my husband! She caught every moment without intruding on the ceremony and was even able to catch moments I would never have remembered. If you are looking for the best look no further! Jessie Silva is it!!!" ~ Maggie & Chris

"First off, Jessie is a pleasure to work with! She made us feel comfortable! You know she did an amazing job when my fiancé would not stop talking about how fun our session was and was more excited than me to get our pictures back (which is saying something, because I love my pictures!) Not only is Jessie an amazing photographer, she also is very helpful with the wedding day timeline planning and helping wherever help is needed in the wedding planning. Overall, Jessie is your girl! She is responsive, fun, and amazing!" ~ Sam & Tara

"Jesse is a phenomenal photographer! She captured our engagement and wedding flawlessly. She far exceeded our expectations and helped us to feel comfortable in front of the camera. We have so many prints from our wedding around the house and have 2 books full of photos she has done because we love them so much. She is incredibly fun and professional to work with!" ~ Mckenna & Jim

feeling like ricky bobby
And don't know what to do with your hands?
I have no problem doing what it takes to get you to loosen up and get the shot, with easy natural posing, a handful of terrible puns, and a lot of creeping in fields and bushes.
I once had a groom that was so shy, he couldn’t make eye contact with me during our consultation. By the end of his wedding, he actually booped my nose! (Yes, seriously!)
I will be your own personal hype man, and get just as excited for you as you were the day you said “YES!”
There’s a high chance I’ll make some strange unintelligible noises when you’re freaking NAILING the shot.

Feeling overwhelmed? Let me help!
A few months from your wedding day, you'll fill out a questionnaire that outlines the VIPs, the locations and the people making your dreams possible. One month from the wedding, we'll meet up and finalize your timeline, discuss the list of family photos and make sure our ducks are in a row!

With a decade of experience, you can lean on me for all of your questions! When should hair and make-up finish? When do we start dancing? Should I cut my own bangs the night before the wedding? (Answer: hard no.)
At our initial consultation, we’ll draft a wedding timeline that you can give to your vendors to help stay organized!
My wedding guide will help you decide if a first look is for you, or find a DJ who will honor your request to never ever play the Macarena.
