Hi, I'm Jess.
I am a single mother to little girl whom I am obsessed with! If ever a moment that I am not ogling over her you will find me out on an adventure with camera in tow.
Prior to being a mother, I was a nomad living in a van, exploring the great outdoors and rediscovering ME. This was a much-needed recess after nearly two decades of military service.
While in service I was blessed with the opportunity to capture moments that would forever inform, teach and reach future generations, offering a muse to serve or simply a glimpse of the world from a Sailor’s perspective. over the last two decades, I spent my time globetrotting with the U.S. Navy. One constant, my camera was never far from reach.
As I immerse myself in the civilian sector, one thing remains the same, I consistently find myself behind the lens capturing frames with the desire that others will be as inspired as I am by merely a moment in time.
Home-based in Montrose, Colorado. I have 20 years of experience, a degree in portrait and commercial photography and I attended the Military Visual Journalism program at Syracuse University's Newhouse School of Public Communication.
