TESTIMONIALS

What people are saying

"Nothing short of amazing"

"I forgot about daylight savings and had our session that morning. She was able to corral and entertain our very active children while photographing our infant with ease. We've been doing sessions with Jess for 4 years now and I always look forward to them. My children love looking at their albums. Would highly recommend Jess!"

- Colleen Levesque

"A magical photographer"

"Jess seems to be able to capture wonderful shots no matter the situation. The first time we met with her my son refused to participate. I was upset but she assured me that he would come around and we would have great photos - and we did. The next time we met with her we planned an outdoor location but it started to rain. We quickly shifted to our house which I had not tidied for photos but again, they turned out perfectly. Jess is so wonderful with children and puts parents at ease. I couldn't recommend her more highly."

- Catherine Correia

"I would leave six stars if I could!"

"Jess did our newborn photos and wow! All of them are so good! She was amazing with our toddler and our newborn daughter and got so many amazing shots. Highly recommend!"

- Jody Kraft Miller

FAQs

How do I book a time for a photoshoot on your calendar?

Visit this page here. My photoshoot calendar opens about two months in advance, which means in December my January and February calendars are open, in January my February and March calendars are open, and so forth throughout the year. If you already know a particular time of year when you'd like to take photos, just email me and ask to be put on my "contact first" list for any given month. Then I'll be in touch with you directly when that month of the year is open for booking. 

NEWBORNS: I do save a few additional appointments each month for newborns, so if you've just had your baby in the past few weeks or months and the shoot times listed on this page don't work for you, let me know and I'll let you know if there are any other appointments available that aren't listed here. 

WAITING LIST: As you can imagine with small children and stuffy noses, etc., I get a ton of cancelations (pretty much at least one every week or two). If you would like to try for an earlier appointment than what you see listed, you can ask to be added to my waiting list. Just send me an email: [email protected]. When I have an opening, I email the entire waiting list at once, and the first reply gets the spot. I schedule sessions usually on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and many Saturdays and Sundays at 9am, 11am, 1pm and 3pm.

Can I buy a gift card for someone else?

Absolutely! Visit my shopify store here to purchase a gift card for anything you'd like. If you don't see what you're looking for, contact me directly and I'm happy to make you a custom gift card.

I saw somewhere you do online courses teaching parents to take photos with their phones? Where do I find out about that?

Oh yes, that's for 1-2 year olds, it's called my Iconic Set by Boston Baby Photos® program - you can learn more here.

When do you do your Public Garden Minishoots?

In order to address demand for photos once babies are walking around and exploring their world, I'm in the Public Garden twice each spring and fall doing minishoots for families with children who are all over a year old. I announce those dates a few months prior, and loads more info with pricing and samples can be found on the Public Garden Minishoots page of my site here.

I have a question that's not answered here, can we do a phone call?

Of course, my phone call calendar is here. If you don't see a time that works for you, pop me a quick email ([email protected]) and I'm sure we can find a time for a call soon.
