photography
Jessi johnson
I started my photography business four years ago thinking I’d focus on product photography, but everything changed the moment I began photographing people. I fell in love with the emotion, the connection, and the art of telling real stories through honest moments.
Before settling down, I spent years traveling coast to coast — from Pennsylvania to California, with stops in places like New Orleans and Colorado. Those experiences shaped how I see the world and taught me to notice the beauty in everyday moments.
Nearly ten years ago, I returned to the Midwest and discovered a deep appreciation for the area and the people here. Today, I photograph weddings with a balance of authenticity and artistry, capturing moments as they naturally unfold while creating images that feel intentional, timeless, and deeply personal.
Travel-
From beaches to mountains, there's not much that can beat the feeling of packed bags and the start of new adventure.
Books-
I read every day and I'm in two book club. If you have a good book recommendation send it my way!
Camping-
I love tent camping, its my favorite way to spend a vacation. After my own elopement wedding my husband and I camped in Yellowstone National Park, it was magical.
Dogs-
We have two golden retrievers and we want another! I love when people bring dogs to their engagement session and wedding, I'm always happy to photograph a dog.
