“Well behaved women rarely make history.”


Hey love! I'm Janessa :)


Let's get down to business. I've been doing this almost a decade, and have worked with hundreds of people in my career. I have niched down to strictly intimate portraiture. What does this include? Boudoir, and Lifestyle Portraits (Couples, Family, Senior, etc.). I believe specializing in these types of photography has granted me the knowledge to better service YOU. I am very intuitive when it comes to sessions. I can feel when you aren't comfortable with a pose, and can quickly pivot to something different. I can tell if a family member is having an off day, and have you all do something silly together.


Let's get into contact and/or grab coffee (on me), and chat more about what you're looking for! I can't wait to start planning your session. <3

“We recently did a mini family photo session with Janessa and she was AWESOME! Very professional but so relatable at the same time. She was patient with us as we have a 1 year old and trying to get us all out the door on time can be challenging at times (ie- we were a bit late). She gave us direction on how to pose and made it SO FUN! The photos are proof. It all turned out so wonderful and it’s all thanks to Janessa! (She even got our beagles to pose for the camera)”
