Welcome to Femme Noir

A Portrait Experience Designed for the Woman Who Does It All — and Finally Deserves a Moment for Herself.

Hey, I’m Jess — the photographer, storyteller, and woman behind Femme Noir.

If we haven’t met yet, I’m so glad you’re here. This brand has been living in my heart for a long time — born from the quiet realization that so many of us spend our lives showing up for everyone else, while forgetting what it feels like to truly show up for ourselves.

We say things like “maybe one day” or “when life slows down.” But the truth is — there’s never a perfect time.
That’s why I created Femme Noir: to give women permission to take that moment now.

More Than a Photoshoot

Femme Noir isn’t about perfection, posing, or performance. It’s about the in-between moments — the quiet pause while you’re getting ready, the soft laughter that sneaks out when you finally let your guard down, the kind of confidence that appears when you stop trying to control it.

I photograph women the way we deserve to be seen: powerful, beautiful, and unapologetically ourselves.
You don’t need to know how to pose, or wear something daring, or look a certain way. You just need to show up — and I’ll take care of the rest.

This experience is designed to remind you of who you are before the world told you who to be.

Art That Lives Beyond the Screen

One thing that makes Femme Noir different is that we don’t stop at digital images.
These portraits are meant to live.

From handcrafted albums to fine art prints and wall portraits, every piece is created to be seen and celebrated every day — a reflection of your strength, softness, and story.

Because confidence shouldn’t live in a folder on your phone. It should hang on your wall, rest on your nightstand, and remind you every day of your power.

For the Woman Who’s Ready

Femme Noir is for the woman who’s ready to see herself again.
The one who’s carried the weight, held it all together, and finally wants to take a breath — not for anyone else, but for herself.

If that’s you, welcome home.
This space was built for you.
To celebrate you.
To help you see yourself the way the world already does — strong, radiant, and completely unforgettable.
