I’m a photographer, storyteller, and the heart behind Femme Noir — a space built for women who do it all and finally deserve a moment that’s just for them.
I started this because I kept hearing the same thing from women over and over again: “One day, I’ll do something like that for myself.” And I get it. We spend so much of our lives taking care of everyone else that we forget what it feels like to be seen.
Femme Noir was born out of that — out of wanting to give women permission to slow down, to breathe, and to rediscover the parts of themselves that have been tucked away for too long.
This isn’t about performing or pretending. It’s not about being “sexy” for someone else. It’s about you — your story, your strength, your evolution — captured in a way that feels honest, empowering, and deeply personal.
Welcome, I'm Jess
Every Femme Noir session begins with intention — a conversation, a deep breath, and space for you to just be. I take the time to get to know you — your story, your personality, your desires, and how you want to be seen — because no two women walk into the studio with the same journey or the same kind of strength.
From there, we design your session together. Whether that means soft and romantic, bold and unapologetic, or something entirely your own, every detail is chosen to reflect you. I believe in soft direction over stiff posing, movement over perfection, and connection over composition. You don’t have to know what to do — I’ll guide you every step of the way so you can simply relax and trust the process.
What we create isn’t just photography — it’s storytelling. Your laughter, your stillness, your strength — all captured with honesty and intention. And when it’s over, you’ll leave with something that lasts: heirloom albums, fine art prints, and wall portraits that remind you, every time you see them, of the woman you’ve become.
Because this experience isn’t about how you look — it’s about how you feel. Seen. Beautiful. Completely yourself.
