rexton levi & tinsleigh faith | 14 days fresh

these three little loves came to see me at just 14 days fresh last week, and it was such a joy to meet this beautiful family! 🤍

big brother was absolutely incredible and completely stole the show. and these twins? they were very much awake and so curious -much more than I typically see at this age! if sister was sleeping, brother was awake… and the second he settled, she was ready to party. 😂 it was honestly hilarious!

these adorable little loves both LOVED being wrapped nice and snug. watching their little personalities already begin to shine was so sweet. 🤍

it is always such an honor to photograph twins. they truly are something special, and I feel so lucky to be trusted with these precious first memories. ✨

which image is your favorite? ❤️ I love them all!!

eversen | 11 days fresh

there is truly nothing better than getting to see a family again as they grow 🥹💙

sweet eversen came to see me last week and he did soooo great! it was such a joy to welcome this family back and meet their newest addition.

one of my favorite details was that dad brought everyone's jerseys for the session. 🏈 he said he can't wait to see which team this little guy grows up cheering for. i loved that personal touch!

this handsome little guy spoiled me with soooo many adorable little smirks and smiles throughout his session. I loved watching him with his big sisters too. they were SO precious with him!

welcome to the world, sweet boy. you are SO LOVED.

which image is your favorite? we got so many good ones! it was hard to choose what to share! ✨

78 degrees. no makeup. hair pulled back. covered in baby shushing sounds. 🤍

this is where everything happens!

every newborn session means keeping my studio nice and warm so those sweet little babies stay sleepy and comfortable. while everyone else is thinking, “it’s so hot in here!”… i’m over here sweating and loving every minute of it.

this 632 square feet space is definitely my happy place ♥️

years ago, this little dream started with a studio setup inside my home. today, I still can’t believe I get to unlock the door to my own space and do what I love every single day. and honestly? I never get tired of walking in here.

excited to meet the newest member of the JTP baby club this morning! & guess what? we have newborn twins tomorrow! SO EXCITED 🫶🏼

would you rather be freezing or sweating? i’m team sweating if it means sleepy newborns! 😅

eli | 16 days fresh

handsome little eli came to the studio at 16 days old after arriving at 37 weeks and he kept me entertained the entire session! he spent about half the time wide awake, giving me the cutest little half-smiles and the funniest expressions.

it was so special to see this wonderful family again and meet their newest little guy. mama was just in my studio for a cake smash a little over a month ago! her boys are almost exactly one year apart!

if you're expecting, don't wait until baby arrives to think about newborn photos! the best time to reserve your session is during your second trimester so I can make sure I have room on my calendar when your little one makes their debut.

💙 now tell me...

quick confession... I don't consider myself a sports photographer 😊

newborns, kiddos, families, and seniors are my comfort zone... but Media Day? I absolutely LOVE it.

there's just something about creating these images for my son's team that kicks off football season in the best way. I am SO EXCITED to create another round of Media Day photos soon! (these photos were from last year)

now... can we talk about being the mom of the quarterback for a second? 😅

every play I'm thinking...
"please protect him."
"please catch that."
"please don't fumble."
"please get up."
😂😂😂

it's basically three hours of holding my breath every friday night.

🏈 sports parents... I know I'm not alone!

what sport does your child play? and if you're a football parent... what position makes YOU the most nervous to watch?

LETS GO KR! LETS GO FIVE!!!

stop and think for a second... when was the last time you looked at a photo and realized just how much your kids have changed? ❤️

i've been photographing this sweet family since 2017, and every time I see them i'm reminded just how quickly the years fly by. those little boys I first met are growing into such handsome young guys.

we were gifted the most beautiful summer evening... golden sunshine... not a single cloud in the sky.

one of my favorite parts of this job isn't just taking photos... it's becoming a tiny part of your family's story. watching children grow, hearing about new milestones, and getting those yearly hugs makes this so much more than "just pictures." ✨

love this family! which image is your favorite? ☀️

i'm back ❤️

as our boys have gotten older... i've realized how rare it is to have everyone together in one place. these moments don't happen nearly as often anymore and i thank God for every single one of them. this vacation was especially meaningful because it was our last big trip with all three boys before our second son heads off to college in about a month. i honestly don't know how we're already here ❤️

my happiest place will always be wherever all of my boys are ✨

vacation absolutely filled my heart but now i'm back in the studio and super excited for one of my favorite seasons of the year! BUSY SEASON!

🍂 fall family sessions are now booking (only two spots for October left)
🎓 class of 2027 seniors - it's your time!
🎂 cake smash sessions are booking too and I can't wait to celebrate those sweet first birthdays! (through Feb 2027)
✨ NEWBORNS through December

when Liam's family told me they wanted to capture their little guy and make it all things baseball I was so excited!

we had a blast! Liam has the best personality and is such a happy dude! ✨

if your family has a passion, a tradition, a favorite sport, or even a crazy idea you've been sitting on... tell me. those are often the sessions that become everyone's favorites.

which image is your favorite?

and Liam... I'll see you soon for your cake smash, buddy. I have a feeling you're going to keep us all laughing. ❤️

benjamin | 10 days fresh

at 10 days fresh, benny (as his brother calls him) came into my Gainesville, Va studio with a plan... and it definitely wasn't to go straight to sleep. 😂 he spent the beginning of his session making sure everyone knew he was in charge, but once he finally decided we were worthy of a nap... it was game on! we flew through so many fun setups and captured the sweetest images.

then, just as quickly as he had fallen asleep, those little eyes popped open like he was saying, "alright, photographer... I think you've got enough. my shift is over." 😅

can we give big brother a round of applause? 👏 he was AMAZING! SO patient, so gentle, and so proud of his new baby brother. those are the moments that melt me every single time.

💬 parents, tell me the truth... did your newborn call the shots, or did you get lucky with a sleepy baby? I know we've got some stories out there! 😂

which image is your favorite?! I love that first one but I truly love them all. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

📸 hiiii!! if you’re new here… i’m Jessica 🫶🏼

i’m the girl behind the camera, the one who gets way too excited over golden light, tiny baby yawns, genuine belly laughs, and those in-between moments you didn’t even realize were happening.

for the past 15 years, I’ve had the incredible honor of documenting hundreds of families and watching so many of your babies grow into toddlers, teenagers, and graduates. there is truly nothing I love more. ♥️

when I’m not photographing families, you’ll usually find me cheering on my boys, spending time with my family and exploring new places!

i’d love to know about YOU!

✨ where are you from?
✨ how long have you been following my page?
✨ if we’ve had a session together, comment with your favorite memory!

i’d love to get to know everyone a little better. ❤️
