Alexandra Sent on 09/10/2017Jess is not only a fantastic photographer but a great lady through and through. Before our shoot, she met up with us for lunch so we could get a better idea on what to expect from our shoot as this was our first time ever working with a photographer. She answered all of our questions, gave pointers, and helped us solidify our location. As monsoon season was in full swing, Jess was super flexible and suggested we move our evening shoot to an early morning shoot and we couldn't be happier with the lighting or time of day. She made us feel super comfortable during the shoot and was very speedy in sending us our portfolio; which we're JUST ETHEREAL, and STUNNING! We look forward to working with her in the future if we get the chance. -

I booked Jess for an engagement portrait session for my best friend and her fiance.
I found Jess through Instagram. She used local hashtags for El Paso and El Paso weddings which made it easy for me to find her and see her work. She was also easy to find through Google, WeddingWire, and theKnot. She is one of the few photographers in the area who has a strong online presence which made me feel more confident and comfortable booking her.
She was easy to communicate with through Facebook , email, and her website. Her site was also easy for me to navigate.
I was drawn to TJ + Natalie’s and Rob + Lindsay’s portrait sessions on her website. My best friend and I were shocked when we saw Rob+Lindsay’s portraits were taken in memorial park because we’ve been there so many times and it never looked as magical in person as their portraits appeared. If you haven’t seen them, you need to. Go. Go enjoy the colors and the magic, then come back to my review.
What made me book her was how dynamic her angles and editing are. It doesn’t look Pinterest perfect, it sets the standard. All of her clients look like they have real and perfect skin. They aren’t overly edited. They just look like they’re having the best aesthetic day of their life. Her editing truly matches her client personalities and is cohesive. Her clients also have varying skin tones and she edits them well. She also gives a 24 hour sneak peek so you can get instant gratification or get to work on your wedding website.
My friends had never had a professional portraits taken and were looking for photos they could use for their save the dates and wedding slideshow. She was very accommodating and patient with our requests such as having pictures sitting in trees and including their dog in some of the photos. She was also very patient and encouraging while coaching them and coaxing them out of their very nervous shells. She always made suggestions that were natural to them.
She’s the best!
TL;DR
She has a strong online presence and is easy to communicate with via her email, social media, and easily navigable website.
She has clients of varying skin tones and understands how to maintain the integrity of skin color and texture. She has an eye for angles and can make any location look magical and like it was made for you.
She is great at executing the goal. She has a patient, accommodating, decisive, and creative personality.
If you are uncomfortable in front of a camera, she is a great coach and hype woman.
She gives you a 24 hour sneak peak to tide you over until you get your gallery.
You NEED to hire her. -

Jess went above and beyond, she was a true professional! She not only captured beautiful moments but she was instrumental in helping me put a timeline together in order to assure things ran smoothly. And you bet she stayed on top of everything and everyone making sure we did not deviate from the plan! She is so fun to work with and makes the experience so enjoyable, you forget you are being photographed at times. Always super punctual and courteous. Her attention to detail is exceptional, which is a reflection of her work. For us that's what set her aside from other photographers, and her bubbly and cheerful personality is just the cherry on top! We were so blessed to have her captured the most important day of our lives. Luv ya Jess!!!!! -

cannot say enough great things about Jess! She is loving, sweet, and you can tell she really cares about you & what she does. We felt so comfortable and natural throughout our engagement session and wedding day thanks to her! No awkwardness (which is difficult if you know my husband 😜) She captured "us" to an absolute T. Definite A++ from the Frigerio's!! -

She did our engagement & wedding photos.
I was blown away by her talent both times we got our pictures back. The passion she has for photography truly shows within her work.
I HIGHLY recommend Jessica! -
