I'm a local photographer, based out of Anchorage. Available for all your photography needs! I'm also the official photographer for VanDenBerg Racing Team.
I am a natural-light photographer specializing in custom shoots. I work with clients looking for a personalized experience. I also shoot commercially, please contact me for details. From portrait photography to weddings, family and pets, fashion, corporate and events, to design and art - I am able to manage your project from conception to design. My Philosophy
I understand that some people would
like a custom tailored session orchestrated just for them, while others just want “a few pictures” to remember this moment in time. For that reason, I have two options for you to choose from. Custom Portrait Session:
My favorite portrait sessions are capturing family interaction and play at your own home or favorite family spot. The Lifestyle Custom Portrait Session is a collaboration between my ideas and those that hold special meaning to you. I'll send you a questionnaire and together we create your dream session and cater it to you specifically. I want you to walk away from this session with a documentation of a slice of your life. I don’t want you to have a “hard time choosing” photos, because I want you to have them all, so this package is all inclusive! For this purpose, I carefully select the best images from our session and they are together on a USB ready to print. This option is best for families with younger children and pets, High School Seniors, couples, boudoir, or newborn sessions. The Custom Portrait Session ($300) includes:
-Pre-session clothing consultation & location discussion
-45-90 minute custom tailored session (in home or favorite family spot)
-Online sneak peek on this page with up to 5 images within a week of your session
-Flash drive with all images taken (150-300), including up to 30 hi-resolution, professionally edited images within 2 weeks of your session
-Unlimited personal use printing and social media posting rights
The deposit and session fees are non refundable, but transferable to another date, in the event of illness or inclement weather. Contact Jes via email ([email protected]) or PM to secure your custom portrait time slot, along with an idea of where you’d like your session to take place.
**If you find you are not completely satisfied with your gallery images, I am happy to re-shoot your session. I don’t want you to worry going into your session that your investment in portraits hinges on one day. I want you to be happy :)
Mini Portrait Session
All inclusive mini session & images. Best for posed family shots, maternity, senior portraits, & professional headshots. This petite session ($150) includes:
-pre-session clothing consultation
-15-20 minute session (generally on a pre-set date, time selected, occasionally as needed)
-minimum 10 fully edited images on a flash drive to print or post online at your discretion. This 15-20 minute mini session will not happen every month. I will select the date and location and will hold firm to the time slots. This shortened session doesn’t lack in beautiful moments captured, just in the variety, and are more posed in nature. This session offers you an alternative to the Lifestyle Custom Portrait Session and is more posed in nature. With just enough time for 1 family pose and a few individual shots, or a handful of shots of just children/high school seniors. This includes all of the best images, minimum of 10, generally up to 30. Each petite date is limited to 6 time slots, up to a family of 8.
