HI, I’M JACKIE

I’m so glad you’re here

I capture the kind of moments that feel like salt air on your skin and soft laughter in the breeze— honest, sunlit memories that are as effortless as a day by the sea. These are the quiet, candid glimpses of your life that you'll want to hold onto forever.

To serve with intention, celebrate with heart, and capture what’s real.

The “why” behind what i do

I believe your session should feel like you – easy, joyful, and full of the kind of real, heartfelt moments you’ll want to remember forever. I’m not just here to take beautiful photos (though you’ll definitely be getting those!). I’m here to support you, celebrate with you, and help you feel completely at ease, so you can be fully present for every laugh, tear, and in-between moment. No stiff posing, no added stress – just honest storytelling and a calm, fun experience that lets your story shine.

If you’re dreaming of a laid-back, heart-led day with photos that feel like you, you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

Let’s Freeze Time Together

Whether you're dreaming of a beachside maternity shoot, a laid-back family session with rolling fields, or an intimate, quiet in-home session with your partner, I’ve got you covered. Wherever your story feels most true, I’ll be there to capture the moments you want to hold onto forever.

LET’S CONNECT!

Get to know me

01 / 

I cannot burp. Like I physically cannot.

02 / 

I am a huge Disnerd & have been to disneyland over 350 times already + still counting!

03 / 

I collect & trade disney pins! Between my husband and I, our collection is currently at over 1,000 pins!

04 / 

I am allergic to dogs, haha! But..I LOVE DOGS more than anything and I don't let my allergies stop me from lovin' on them--so please, still DO bring them to your sessions. I have shiba inu & english cream golden retriever of my own! :) Dogs are ALWAYS welcome at your session (as long as the location allows them of course)! :)

05 / 

My Meyers Briggs personality type is INFJ. People say I'm a rarity ;)

06 / 

I was born and raised in Southern California and I'm lucky to live in the cute little city of Laguna Niguel, just a couple of miles from the ocean! I LOVE the ocean- stand up paddling is my favorite water activity, but learning to surf is on my bucket list!

07 / 

As much as I love binging Netflix shows, I get stir crazy easily and cannot binge ALL day like many can :) I am definitely solar powered & have to get outside every single day at least for a little bit to soak in the sunshine.

08 / 

I love plants, thrifting, cooking, interior design, and am fascinated by animals! Beluga whales, dolphins, sea otters and monkeys are my favorite animals ever!
