Hey, I'm Jess.
I’ve been telling stories for as long as I can remember — I just didn’t always have the words for it. When I was six years old, I got my first camera. A tiny pink Nikon point-and-shoot that, to anyone else, was just a toy. To me, it was magic. It meant I could freeze moments, hold onto feelings, and keep little pieces of life forever.
From that day on, I never really stopped documenting. Birthdays, horses, friends, sunsets, ordinary days that didn’t feel ordinary to me — I photographed everything. Not because I had to, but because I felt something when I did. I realised early on that photos aren’t just images, they’re memories you can step back into.
As I grew, so did my camera, my eye, and my love for storytelling. Photography became more than capturing pretty things — it became about emotion, movement, light, and truth. Videography followed naturally, because sometimes a story needs motion, sound, and breath to be fully felt.
Today, I create to preserve moments the way they felt, not just how they looked. The quiet ones, the wild ones, the in-between ones. My work is rooted in real life — honest, warm, and alive — because the best stories aren’t staged, they’re lived.
And I’m still that little girl with the pink camera… I just never put it down.
Here
is
my
story
From 2018 to 2022, I worked as a full-time commercial lifestyle photographer, partnering with brands and helping them bring their vision to life through honest, story-led imagery. It was a season of growth, creativity, and learning how powerful visual storytelling can be. But somewhere along the way, my camera took a quiet back seat. I realised I had started living life through the lens instead of through my own eyes, and I had forgotten how to simply be present. So I stepped away, paused the love affair, and let myself live fully again — until 2025, when the pull to create, document, and tell stories found me once more.
In 2025, my love for the equestrian world pulled me back behind the camera. I found myself in England, working alongside one of the sport’s top eventers, and before long I was capturing powerful, fleeting moments within what I believe is one of the most dangerous sports in the world. The courage, precision, and partnership between horse and rider moved me deeply — incredible athletes, both human and horse, risking everything for the sport they love. Being so close to that energy, that trust, and that raw reality lit something in me again… and I felt inspired to create like never before.
And now, in 2026, I find myself exactly where I’m meant to be — behind the camera, documenting the things that move me most. Horses, humans, and the stories that live between them. Creating with heart, presence, and purpose, capturing not just how moments look, but how they feel — honest, alive, and real.
