More than a photoshoot. It’s a rediscovery.
Through quiet moments and bold light, we capture your confidence as art.
This is photography that lives beyond the screen, designed to be touched, held, and remembered.
Welcome to Femme Noir, a portrait experience designed for the woman who does it all and finally deserves a moment that’s all her own.
This isn’t about lingerie or perfection. It’s about the in-between moments, the quiet pause while you get ready, the laughter that slips out when you least expect it, the kind of confidence that sneaks up on you when you finally let your guard down.
I photograph women the way we deserve to be seen: powerful, beautiful, and unapologetically themselves.
Most of us say things like, “I’m not photogenic,” or “I hate having my picture taken.” But the truth is, it’s not your job to know how to pose; that’s mine. I’ll guide you every step of the way, helping you move, breathe, and see yourself the way everyone else already does.
At Femme Noir, we don’t do digital-only galleries that get lost on a hard drive or on the cloud. We create legacy artwork: handcrafted albums, fine art prints, and wall pieces meant to be seen and celebrated every day. These portraits are meant to live beyond the session as reminders of your confidence, your strength, and your story.
Whether you come to celebrate, heal, or simply remember yourself, you’ll leave with more than photographs. You’ll leave with proof of how extraordinary you truly are.
Let’s design a session that’s completely, beautifully you.

more about me
I’m Jess — the photographer and storyteller behind the camera. I started Femme Noir because I know what it feels like to always be behind the scenes, doing everything for everyone else, and forgetting what it’s like to do something just for you. Eventually, I realized most of us do that — we keep waiting for the “right time” to put ourselves first.
Femme Noir is for the women who are done waiting. This experience is about slowing down, taking up space, and celebrating the woman you’ve become. No pressure, no pretending — just real, honest moments that remind you how powerful, beautiful, and completely yourself you already are.
My goal is simple: when you see your portraits, I want you to think, that’s me — and she’s incredible.

“Jess has a way of making you feel completely seen, yet never self-conscious. The experience was calm, artful, and full of light. My gallery is nothing short of amazing.”
— sheryl a.
"The boudoir session was completely outside my comfort zone, but Jess made me feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. I walked away feeling empowered, sexy, and like a total badass."
If you’ve been waiting for the “right time” to do something just for you, this is it.
