About the Brand

YOUR LEGACY IS JUST BEGINNING

My goal is help you preserve this season of motherhood. You deserve to be in the frame with your children.

ABOUT Jessica Mae Photography

As mothers, we are often the one behind the camera - we are the one taking the photo. Years from now your children will long for photos of you with them. This is your moment to get in the frame with your children. Before their grown. Before they begin their family.

Your family's story is unfolding now. Let's preserve your legacy, together.

"JESS IS AN AMAZING and TALENTED PHOTOGRAPHER. SHE is SUCH A JOYto WORK WITH and WE WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND HER to ANYONE!"

— Sarah, Mom of 3

ABOUT
THE ARTIST

I’m Jess. Photographer. Storyteller. Wife. Mom to 3. Recovering Perfectionist. I’m always searching for beauty, meaning, and those little in-between moments that feel unforgettable. 

I'm a type C mom. I've convinced myself that I need an afternoon cup of coffee that comes with a little bakery treat. I don't care if my son gets sticky fingers all over me - as long as I'm not wearing my "nice" clothes. When my kids color on the wall I feel like we should applaud their artistic talent - my husband feels the opposite. My dream vacation is a Fall roadtrip to Vermont. 

For me, helping to preserve this chapter of your family's story genuinely lights my soul on fire. It's not about perfect moments, but about your love and connection with each other. I am deeply honored to be a part of this season with you.

The Jessica Mae Experience

STYLE

I focus more on your connection and relationships than on perfectly posed moments. I value authenticity - and I capture how the moment feels - not just how it looks.

APPROACH

Using film, digital and super 8 - I photograph your family as this season. I love documenting your family in your home. This is one of the most important places for your family and a part of your daily rhythms. 

CLIENTELE

I help preserve families legacies in the Philadelphia, Main Line, Lancaster and Harrisburg areas. I love working with mothers who value connection over perfection and authentic emotion over flawlessly curated.
