Everything you need to know about photography & videography with Jessica Brees

The Wedding Experience

Including the big moments, happy tears, warm fuzzies, pretty details, and drunken shenanigans!

I love photographing the whole part of your journey as a couple - proposals, engagements, bridals, boudoir, anniversary sessions, and of course, weddings. My mission is to provide you with a fun, enjoyable and stress-free experience, from the day that we meet, to far beyond your wedding day. I know how precious and meaningful these photos are to you, so it is my mission to capture authentic moments that you can relive for the rest of your lives. I love my job and the fact that I am invited to be a part of the best day of your lives! I love celebrating with you, and trust me when I say, you will see me out on that dance floor with you!

I'll be there to capture every beautiful moment!

From your Mom buttoning up the dress to the first kiss as Mr and Mrs to the last moments at sunset...

• Is bubbly with a touch of sass and always have a smile on my face! I have a LOUD laugh, so don't stand too close!

• Will be your cheerleader and biggest fan, keep you fed and on time, and help you pull pranks on your hubby if that's your thing!

• Will teach you the moves to the Wobble and rap Lizzo with you on the party bus.

• Will bustle your dress, deep breathe with you, hype your bridesmaids, and wrangle rowdy groomsmen.

• Will hug your Grandma, listen to all her stories, and even make sure she gets the family photo with her ipad after I take the real one!

• But most importantly, will make sure you have the best day of your life and I'll make sure I get your good side while you do!

Simplifying The Process

Sound perfect or what?

Your package comes with one session and you can choose from an Engagement Session, Bridal Session, Boudoir Session or Anniversary Session! Most couples choose to add on an additional session as well!

STEP 3 schedule your session

If we decide we are a good fit, a signed contract and paid retainer is all you need to lock in your day! Your date is not reserved until this point and I accept a limited number of weddings, so don't delay on this step!

STEP 2 Make it official

Before we get any further, let's schedule a consultation! This is our chance to get to know each other better, hear all about your wedding dream, and see if I'm the best fit for your day. That's what matters the most!

Step 1 Let's Chat

I want you to have photos to share as soon as possible, so keep an eye on your email and social media for sneak peeks of your day! These sneak peeks will be delivered to you within one week of the wedding!

STEP 6 sneak peeks

IT'S GO TIME! On your big day, your job is to have the best day ever and to SOAK IT UP! I will be there to capture it all and to celebrate with you! I'll see you on the dance floor!

STEP 5 get married!!!

About a month before your wedding, I will reach out to you to talk about the logistics and details for your day! This helps me prepare for your big day, create your custom timeline, prep your family formal lists, and more! 

Step 4 pre-wedding prep

If you purchased an album, we will begin the album design process! I will walk you through the process of choosing your album cover and your favorite photos, and we will design the album together!

STEP 9 album design

About 1-3 weeks after your big day, you will receive your full gallery! Most wedding galleries include about 700 photos - thats a ton of photos! You can download, share and print these photos straight from your gallery!

STEP 8 gallery delivery

Within a week or two, you will have your moment to SHINE on my website! I try to blog every single wedding to show off hundreds of the best images from the big day! This blog link can be shared with all of your family and friends on social media so everyone can see the highlights!

I don't need to see more! I'm already in!

I might be approaching 40, but I still act like a 25 year old! I love laughing and having fun, no matter what our situation is...
Not only will I direct the time line and flow of the day, but I'll tell you how flawless you look every step of the way! If you don't look picture perfect, believe I will let you know (in the most gentle way possible) because I want you to love how you look in the images! I will fix your hair, carry your shade of lipgloss, make miracles happen for photos, tell people to help more or leave you alone, and give you a hug and snack when your energy is dipping down. No matter what happens...I got your back!

Even though very few people use Facebook anymore, I'm holding on to my Private VIP group! Until I can figure out how to make a group on Instagram or my website, we will be hanging out on Facebook. This is where I share trends and ideas that I see, awesome moments my other couples have experienced, or straight up guidance on how to survive the day with as little stress as possible!

Breezy Bride private VIP group

I'm approaching my 200th wedding and in that time I've met some amazing vendors! DJs, florists, hair and makeup specialists, caterers, rentals and planning...I have a list of the coolest, most creative, most passionate people who are dying to help you create your dream wedding day! Just ask and I will hook you up with some phenomenal businesses!

Access to my network

I have shot over 180 weddings to date, and I have shot events in Spain, Italy, France, Mexico and Ireland! (I'm totally down if you want to add to that list!) I love getting to create images that my clients love and you'll probably hear my laugh from a mile away!
