following wherever your love story leads me
Hey, I’m Jenna! I was born and raised in Branson, Missouri, and now call Springfield home. I love a lot of things and a lot of people, and I love them with my whole heart. I’m a proud dog mom to Moose, my mini Aussie, who is quite literally my world. My ideal day includes iced white chocolate lattes, worship music, and spontaneous adventures with friends. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me at the gym, on the ice rink, or spending intentional time with the people who mean the most to me.
But more than anything, I love people. I believe life is meant to be shared, and my favorite thing in the world is building deep, lasting relationships. My clients aren’t just clients—they become my friends. Some have even become family. I’ve laughed with them, cried with them, and even stood beside them as a bridesmaid on their wedding day. It’s the greatest joy of my life to celebrate others in such an intimate and meaningful way.
A couple years ago, I felt God calling me to full-time ministry. Going into my senior year of college, I changed my major, I left the medical field, and said yes to God. After being an intern at my church, I fell in love with people and the Lord’s love for people. After months of praying and waiting for God to open up a door to ministry, I stumbled upon a cheap camera on Facebook in summer 2022. Intrigued, I bought it, not knowing anything about photography. I began teaching myself and very quickly (and unexpectedly) grew. What started as a curiosity quickly became a passion. Within four months, I quit my 9-5, made my business official, and never looked back. But this isn’t just a job to me—it’s ministry. Every wedding, every session, every moment is an opportunity to love people well, to remind them how valued and cherished they are. Photography gives me a front-row seat to some of the most meaningful moments in people’s lives, and I consider that the greatest honor.
My faith is the foundation of everything I do. Over the years, the Lord has taught me that ministry isn’t confined to a church; it’s found in everyday moments, conversations, and relationships. This job allows me to serve, encourage, and love people in ways I never imagined. My prayer is that when people work with me, they don’t just see a photographer—they see someone who truly cares about them, who prays for them, and who is fully invested in their story. At the end of the day, my greatest desire is to serve the Lord in all I do. Whether I’m behind the camera, posting on social media, or simply having a conversation with a bride who needs encouragement, I want every step of this journey to glorify Him. I am beyond grateful for this calling, the people I get to meet, and the incredible stories I have the honor of witnessing. This business is my ministry, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

What is an associate photographer?
An associate photographer is a skilled and trusted photographer who steps in to photograph your wedding when I am already booked on your booked wedding date. Each associate has their own photography business and has undergone collaboration and training with me to ensure they meet the high standards of my brand (and trust me, I have very high expectations). All my associates know how I shoot and what to look for, ensuring they capture your day just as I would. When you receive the full gallery, you won't even be able to tell that I wasn't at the wedding. I personally edit all the photos, so the gallery will look consistent with my work. By choosing an associate photographer, you can be confident that you'll receive beautiful, high-quality photos that capture the essence of your special day.

Meet Liz
Hey there!! My name is Elizabeth but everyone calls me Liz! I am located in Southwest Missouri but absolutely love to travel! With that being said, I am a big fan of experiencing different cultures and feel like I bring a piece of each one home with me! I started pursuing photography as a creative outlet but it quickly became my safe place. I love getting to be creative and meet new people! A little bit about me; I have 2 sheepadoodle puppies named Bentley and Chloe and I am an AVID book reader with a library 200 books deep (if you need a book recommendation I’m your gal)! As cheesy as it sounds I love, love. Weddings are a happy place for me and I love getting to celebrate the start of someone’s eternity! I don’t want us to be acquaintances, I want you to consider me to be a friend. All that to say I love what I do + the wonderful people I get to meet along the way.

Hey guys!! My name is Faith and capturing everyone’s love and connection is my passion! I’m from Lawrence, KS, but currently live part time in Fort Worth, TX and part time back in KS! After graduating college, I put all my trust in God, quit my job, and didn’t job search in my degree field but instead went full time with my photography business. My growing business has been such a blessing and I love all the beautiful souls I get to meet! Outside of photography I’m a dog mom of two and have been married for 3 years. I love traveling and hiking with my little fam of 3 and spending as much time outdoors as possible!

Meet elissa
My name is Elissa! I am a 22 year old photographer that lives in a smaller town in Missouri, but photography has taken me so many places. That’s something I can only thank Jesus for. Jesus is the center of my life and I will live the rest of my life to glorify Him. I like to use my photography as a ministry, and as a way to praise His name as well. God called me to be involved with teens ministry at my local church and it’s something I cherish so much. I am also a local substitute teacher for the district I live in! I have been photographing weddings and love stories since the summer of 2021. I absolutely adore taking photographs and giving people the opportunity to relive some of their most important moments in their lives. From a young age, I loved documenting in any way, whether it was writing, drawing something, or photographing. That’s why I love documenting wedding days so much. I thank God that He led me to be a photographer and I fully believe His hand was in it from the beginning.

Meet Lexi
Hi there! My name is Lexi, but most people call me Lex! I am a Missouri based photographer who has worked in the wedding industry for nearly 5 years. Though my love for photography originally began with a pink Motorola flip phone, I officially picked up my first camera when I was 14 years old. Throughout the years, I have developed such a deep love for turning stories into art - which is what led me to weddings. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me spending time with my husband and daughter, watching a sappy period piece, antiquing and thrifting or curled up with a good book and a cup of coffee. (If you can’t tell, I’m a cozy connoisseur). I absolutely love meeting new people, so I’m SO happy you’re here. Let’s create some art together ♡

Frequently Asked
Questions
Absolutely. I have personally worked with each one of them and can confidently send them to photograph any wedding at a moment's notice. My associates know how I shoot and what I look for. During the vetting process, all associates had to provide multiple wedding galleries and information about the gear they use. I do not take having an associate team lightly. I know it can be scary having someone else at your wedding that you didn't hire. Rest assured that you are in good hands, and they will take amazing care of you.
