About Jessica Knighton Photography
Jessica Knighton Photography
After celebrating my own 16th wedding anniversary, my partner and I have truly been able to reflect on what is important on a wedding day, and I'm here to bring the wisdom to you! I believe that digital photography and images are a HUGE gift and can provide us with so many more memories than we were previously able to retain. And, just like reading a physical book vs. an e-book, prints hit different. You're not photographing your own wedding — you're trusting a professional to lead you through the best experience you can have and to give you the best art you can get.
So why would a photographer make you design and order your own album or gallery wall? I've got the tools to make you custom designs that tell your story, and professional printers at my fingertips that will make you long-lasting, consciously constructed art that will outlast you. To get there, our connection is the most important thing! I believe there is a photographer out there for everyone. If you believe that your wedding day is about YOU, that it should be fun, and that we all have a responsibility to take care of our environment, then we would be the perfect fit! I cannot WAIT to meet you and get pumped up for your wedding day!

Thank you Jess!
We found Jess through the Professional Photographers Association and honestly she feels like the MVP of our wedding! She is a fantastic photographer, great human to work with, and so much more. She came to our pre-session discussion with a general day-of schedule, provided phenomenal recommendations for DJ/Hair/Makeup, and brought many great ideas to make our big day run even smoother. Additionally, her website and support materials provided a lot of helpful information in preparing for both a photoshoot and wedding. Given how daunting planning this day can be, the help was beyond appreciated. Coming back to the pictures, our photo sessions were fun, creative, and the final pictures were stunning, we can't wait to hang them all over our house! Throughout the process we were so grateful for the care, attention, expertise and fun that Jess brought. Genuinely we feel so lucky to have come across Jess and could not be bigger fans!
Would Highly Recommend
After our first meeting with Jessica we knew she was perfect for our wedding, she helped create a rough draft of our wedding timeline - which helped tremendously when coordinating with other vendors. We felt she was truly invested in our planning and took wonderful care of us during our engagement photos and day of wedding. Jessica took phenomenal photos on the day of the wedding and perfectly captured each moment plus jived so perfectly with family and the wedding party. Also obsessed with my heirloom bouquet photo, Jessica did an amazing job deconstructing and placing the florals in a beautiful yet simple way.
Who's that girl??? IT'S JESS!
Working with Jessica Knighton Photography was hands down one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. From the first time we reached out, she was the most helpful a human could be—from walking through a possible timeline before we even committed to hiring her to sending her wedding guide with tips and tricks and suggestions for other vendors and going along with our not-so-conventional pool party engagement shoot, she made two awkward introverts feel so comfortable both with and without her camera pointed at them. Of all the variety of vendors I spoke with, Jess exceeded every expectation in a way nobody else was able to. She was so kind checking in with us throughout the entire planning process, delivered both our galleries so quickly, and most of all DELIVERED with the best photos to help us remember our day. We simply adored every single one of the photos... like, in a wanna lay on the floor and scream about it, sing her praises from every mountain top even though I'm not a hiker, accidentally send her a thousand and one heart-eyed emojis, bend the knee because forget Sansa Stark she is MY queen of the north type of way. They all feel so very "us" in a way that would be almost frightening if it wasn't so impressive. In a year, or five, or ten or fifty, I can't wait to look back and remember all the little details, how much love we felt, and how much fun it all was. It'll be easy to do because it's written in every picture a thousand times over. I would recommend working with Jess in every universe. She's truly the best in the biz. Especially if you have a two year old niece as your flower girl who isn't so sure about the whole "photos" thing, because she'll probably be very sure of Jess and even smile a time or two. If you don't believe me, ask literally anybody in my family (we still talk about how great she is a frankly concerning amount).
Response from vendor•Dec 21, 2024OMG you two KILL ME with joy and kindness!! Truly it was MY pleasure and honor to work with you!! Thank you so much for trusting me to take care of you :) I loved every minute!! Cheers to you!!Awesome!!
Jess made all of photography so easy! She was very upfront about pricing. Early on she helped us set out a schedule to help us determine what package might work for us. She was great in photo session, including with the little kids in our wedding! She got some incredible pictures of them! And then, to top it all off, the photos were beautiful! Thank you so much Jess!!
