Stop your search here! Jessie is the absolute best of the best. I found Jessie after seeing an article posted on my local news website about a COVID wedding in our neighborhood. While I do love my neighborhood, Jessie had a way of capturing it, and the wedding, that made it look absolutely magical. I didn't even know these people and felt the love and happiness they shared on that day. When I got engaged, I knew exactly who to go to for engagement photos. My fiance and I had never had our photos taken professionally and we were both a little unsure about the experience. I shared with Jessie that we love hiking together and would love our photos to be in nature. Without skipping a beat (because she's so responsive), Jessie suggested a gorgeous overlook on the Blue Ridge Parkway. We were pumped! It felt like from the beginning, she got us and saw us for who we are. The shoot itself flew by! We had so much fun and Jessie made the experience incredibly comfortable. If you're looking for a hype girl, Jessie is that and then some! She immediately feels like your best friend. By the end of the same day as our shoot, Jessie had shared behind the scenes videos that her second photographer took. I knew, just from the videos, that Jessie captured the love we share and the fun we have together. Less than a week later, we had our photos! We're now a month from our shoot and I can't get enough of them. They are the most beautiful images I've ever seen. She made us feel so special and so seen through the process. We've used them for holidays cards, a 2023 calendar, and large prints for our room. Jessie is an artist in the truest form. My fiance and I knew, without even having a wedding date or venue, that we wanted Jessie to photograph our wedding. We planned our wedding around her availability because we can't imagine anyone else capturing our day. Reach out to Jessie! Look at her portfolio! You will see the magic and feel the love and care she puts into the process from the actual shooting to the editing to the sharing of the images. There are simply not enough good things to say about Jessie and her commitment to her craft.

Jessie photographed our wedding in October of 2023, and there aren’t enough nice things I can say about how wonderful she is! The photographs she took are stunning and there are so many! Even though it’s been months, sitting and looking through her photos makes it feel like our wedding was yesterday. We feel so fortunate to have these memories of our wedding to enjoy for years to come. Beyond the beautiful photos, Jessie was a fun and easygoing presence at our event. She and her assistant were professional, but knew how to make every step of the process feel fun and special. I’m not very good at posed photos, and Jessie was wonderful about giving direction when we were doing portraits. She was also great at wrangling both of our large families to make sure we got the shots we needed. She was equally amazing at capturing all those little impromptu moments that happened throughout the day in a very unobtrusive way. She completely understood the vibe we were going for and delivered on every promise, including sending us a really gorgeous sneak peek, which we received while on our honeymoon. It was such a wonderful experience to wake up at our resort to an email from Jessie with a folder full of photos to enjoy! I highly, highly recommend Jessie Walker Photography, no matter what your needs are. Jessie is awesome, and we feel so lucky to have gotten to work with her.

My first thought — hire her! From day one, I knew I wanted a creative photographer who would capture moments that were special to me. Jessie exceeded my expectations by leaps and bounds. I haven’t seen the sneak peaks just yet — but the photos she posted on her Instagram from the night of the wedding let’s me know I will not be disappointed. She didn’t have to post to Instagram, but she put in the extra effort and it meant a lot of Ryan and I. We were on our honeymoon and I could look back and see at all the pictures/videos from the wedding. We also saved them so we have them forever.

Jessie has so much talent, drive and dedication to provide the absolute best for her clients. This sounds silly — but I also loved how she did payments. It was a quick email reminder of what I owe which made everything so easy. (Most vendors don’t do that!) Jessie, I thank you. Thank you for being the absolute best. One of the best in the business — and I mean that. Thank you for dealing with our wild bridal party/family. I cannot wait to continue doing pictures with you for years to come as our family grows.
