Authentic storytelling with Jade
Central missouri Lifestyle + Intimate Wedding Photographer
Your vision is at the heart of every session, and Iโm here to help bring it to life with the perfect location. Whether youโre dreaming of sweeping landscapes, intimate wooded hideaways, or unique urban backdrops, I offer a diverse selection of stunning locations to match your style. Some of these locations are privately owned and exclusively accessible through me, ensuring privacy, space, and one-of-a-kind scenery for your session. No matter the setting you envision, weโll work together to find the ideal spot that makes your photos truly unforgettable.
I also believe that everyone deserves beautiful photos, which is why I offer a range of pricing options and packages to fit different needs and budgets. Whether youโre looking for a short and sweet session or a fully customized experience, thereโs a package designed just for you.
This is about more than how it looks, itโs about how it feels. The connection, the energy, the love that makes your story yours. From deeply personal portraits to the intensity of a wedding day, every image reflects something real, not rehearsed.

jade, the photographer
Avid reader. Adventure Seeker. Creative.
Iโm Jade, your overly emotional, plant-obsessed, book-hoarding lifestyle photographer with a flair for the dramatic (and the deeply sentimental).
As an entrepreneur herself, she understands how to capture your strengths in a way that feels authentic and aligned with your brand. I initially felt a bit unnatural going into a headshot session, but Jade made the entire experience feel fun, relaxed, and completely… me. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who brings out your best with ease.ย

Jade has done several family photo sessions for us and will soon be doing our engagement photos as well. I truly can’t recommend her enough. our last session was very bittersweet, as we knew our time with my mother-in-law was limited. Jade made sure to get us scheduled quickly and went above and beyond on the day of the shoot. She was incredibly patient, never rushed us, and even gave us extra time without charging more. Because of her, we now have photos that mean more to us than words can express. just eight months later, we lost Mae, and those pictures have become something we will cherish forever. Jade doesn’t just take photos, she captures moments that truly matter, we are so grateful for her.ย
