ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER
Meet Jillian
After 15 years of photographing weddings, I’ve learned that the most lasting images aren’t just seen - they’re felt. They hold the breath of a moment and bring it back to life, again and again.
Whether it’s an intimate gathering or a weekend-long celebration, my goal is to capture both the beauty and intention behind your day. From the thoughtfully curated details to the feeling of being surrounded by the people you love most, I’m drawn to the unplanned moments, the way light moves through a space, the connection, the emotion. The things you’ll want to remember most.
My work lives at the intersection of emotional storytelling and refined composition, blending the honesty of real moments with portraits that feel natural, intentional, and composed with care. I offer direction when it’s needed and step back when it’s not, allowing the day to unfold with ease and authenticity. Clients often describe my presence as calming, my guidance as intuitive, and my work as deeply human and artfully composed.
I collaborate seamlessly with planners and creative teams to ensure every detail, from tablescapes to timeline flow, is documented with care. With a deep appreciation for the art and effort that goes into designing a celebration, I approach every wedding with respect for the full creative vision.
I'm live in West Michigan with my husband and our two daughters. Motherhood has forever shaped how I see the world: with empathy, attentiveness, and a reverence for the beauty in unrepeatable moments. I photograph weddings across the Midwest and beyond, specializing in multi-day celebrations for couples seeking dynamic, layered, and deeply personal galleries.
If you're planning a wedding that’s as thoughtful as it is joyful, I’d be honored to tell your story.
“She understood immediately. Met us where we were, and made it all happen. From the first call she thoughtfully dug in on the details and had it all on lock. Family dynamics were covered, the where, the when, the how of it all.
On our day she made us feel so comfortable. She blended in with the day, and photos added to the fun. We never felt like we were being pulled away.”
Morgan & Matt
Her eye for the perfect shot really brought our day to life in the photos and she captured the day in a really genuine and sweet way.
She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was such a calming presence throughout the day. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer
Anne-Marie & Zeke
Not only is she one of the kindest people ever, her ability to capture the pure emotion and details of our wedding day was incredible. Not only us, but of all of our family friends and guests
