oh, hey there

Meet your new biggest fan

I have set out on a mission to empower each and every client that I work with. Whether it be my seniors, business babes, or brides-- my ultimate goal is to capture the beauty that everyone else already sees (and have fun while doing so, of course!)

PORTRAITS

This is how we do it:

Every client that I work with is truly unique, which is why no experience is going to be exactly the same. However, you can expect to laugh, feel love, make memories, and receive those memories in captured form. My style is warm, true to color, playful at times, classic and timeless. 

Capturing life just as it is.

Joyful Times 

Our story-- how it all started

Hey there, I'm Jess-- or Jessica Joy to be exact. I came up with the name "Joyful Times Photography" in 7th grade during math class and started designing my first logo on the whiteboard I was supposed to be writing answers on. My middle name is joy, and I strive to create a joyful experience for my clients-- thus "Joyful Times". Now, about 11 years later, that same name has remained for the same reasons I came up with it in the first place. 

Let's capture joy together

Testimonial

"Jess was amazing during our session! It was so hot outside, yet she was positive and engaging the entire time. My fiancé and I are not the best photo takers, and Jess knew how to position us so that we would get the best shots! I would recommend Jess to anyone looking for a fun, helpful photographer!" -Allie
