Jessica Knighton Photography

With Jessica, you don't just have a photographer. You have a wedding planner, a hype woman, and a best friend for a day. When I say my day wouldn't have been half of what it was without Jessica's help & guidance, I mean it. I'll sing Jessica's praises for years to come!

Jessica was amazing! She took beautiful fall photos of me and my 2-year-old daughter. Her patience, talent, and ability to make the experience fun and easy were incredible. Taking photos with a toddler isn’t easy, but she made it look effortless. Highly recommend her!

Going into my first professional photo shoot I was honestly very nervous especially not having met her before. I didn’t know what to expect, especially since it was a sports shoot immediately walking in I was welcomed by the sweetest soul ever the music in the background, definitely calmed my nerves and helped us jam out. It didn’t feel like I was walking into a stranger’s house that I had never met before. It felt like I had known her for years when agreeing to do that shoot with her, I felt as if it was super important to find someone with all the same values as me and with her website, being very detailed as I learned more about her Jess met all of them I can 100% say with the high quality photos and the warm welcoming Id definitely recommend her to anyone!!

It was great working with Jess! She did an incredible job working with our team to produce professional pictures and images that we can use on our business website and in our print marketing. Highly recommend!

It was a great time you did fantastic with a large group. It was really fun❤️

Jessica is the best. Hands down. Hire her immediately and never look back. She is a master of her craft. She was fun but professional, everyone loved her, and the photos are beyond anything I could have hoped for. We were not the easiest customers. First, our venue was a museum, not a wedding venue, so she had to be creative and work around a space not designed for weddings. Jessica was unperturbed. She considered everything: where the sun would hit, what time to be where, and how to account for different types of weather. At the end of the day, the photos look like they were not taken in a museum, but belong in a museum. Second, my husband does not like being in photos or having any attention on him whatsoever. When told to smile for the camera, he usually makes a face like he just smelled bad eggs. I do not know what kind of wizard Jessica is, but she is definitely magic. She put him at ease and managed to capture sincere, loving looks. Third, she indulged and hyped up all of my silly ideas, like our first look, which I did in an inflatable dinosaur costume. She reflected exactly the balance of quirky and classy I was going for in our photos. When I got engaged, I envisioned being surrounded by my closest, most cherished friends and family. I did not think about the fact that there would also be a virtual stranger there trying to catch it all on tape. Jessica and I spent almost the entire day together, and it was great. She managed to capture intimate moments without ever being intrusive, but she was not a wallflower either. She was helpful, fun, and truly a joy to be around, making a special day even more special.

Jess is the absolute best of the best at what she does. She has done both branding and proposal photos for my partner and I and the photos always turn out even better than I could have imagined. I also love her focus on sustainability and how much she cares about the world around her. Along with being extremely talented, she is an incredible human and makes you feel so at ease every time you're around her. I cannot recommend Jess enough.

Jess was the very first vendor we booked for our wedding, and we could not be happier with that decision. Her photos are absolutely stunning, and she truly captured the spirit of our celebration. Neither my husband nor I feel particularly confident in front of the camera, but Jess helped us relax and brought out our genuine personalities. She is a joy to work with, and we highly, highly recommend her talent to anyone.

Jessica provided me with great advice on adding a personal touch to my website as I build out my new business. She provided a thoughtful and intuitive approach when it comes to marketing and sharing our story through photographs that I hadn’t considered before. This was tremendously helpful as we integrate anthropomorphic concepts my competition lacks. I greatly appreciate Jessica’s expertise, kindness, and I look forward to continue working with her as my business grows. Thank you, Jessica!

One of our biggest challenges with planning our wedding was trying to find queer friendly vendors. After finding multiple glowing reviews online, we were able to connect with Jess. We did interview a couple other potential photographers, but it was no contest when it came down to who we wanted to pick. The quality of the examples we saw, the level of professionalism, and really just the vibe when we spoke to each other was exactly what we were looking for. She made the whole process seamless, and we knew exactly what to expect for each meeting. Communication was awesome throughout the whole process. Meeting in person for our engagement shoot and the wedding itself really helped solidify that we picked the right person. She made both photoshoots about as fun as possible, while still being efficient with time, and direct with her guidance regarding how to pose. We love the pictures we got back and had a blast looking through them. She even took the time to coordinate what time she should send them, so wife and I could view them at the same time. If you're looking for someone queer friendly, with great communication, a stress-free photography experience, and photos you will LOVE, we 1000% recommend Jess!
