About me
I'm a digital and film wedding and elopement photographer based in Northern California and Lake Tahoe. I grew up a cowgirl in Northern Nevada, with a single mom who taught me to ride before I could walk. My mom shot film too, and her photos are the greatest treasure I have from my childhood.
I believe we only get about 10 big moments in our lives, if we're lucky. Your graduation, moving away from home, your engagement, your wedding, your first baby, your first home. That's already over half of them, so as you can see, they go fast. Photos transport you back to the moments you never get to live twice.
Beautiful photos now. Even more beautiful in 50 years.
Hi, I'm Jacque.

unless someone was paying attention.
It's never the big moments that find you in old age, flipping through old albums. It's the small ones. Because you lost someone and you want their face again. Because you need to remember how good it felt to be young and beautiful on your wedding day. Because you forgot what color the sky was that day. Those are the ones you'll reach for. So those are the ones I'm paying attention to.
The moment will be here and gone.
There's no amount of money that can replace a well-taken photo of a moment, a person, or something you love. You don't always feel its worth in the moment. But like a good watch or a piece of land, the right photograph only grows more valuable with time. Whether you're marrying in the foothills outside Redding, eloping at Lake Tahoe, or saying your vows on a working ranch in Northern Nevada, what I make for you is meant to outlast all of us.

A bad timeline costs you the day itself. You spend it rushing, stressed, watching the clock, pulled out of every moment you spent months planning. You don't get to feel any of it, and later, you barely remember it.
A good timeline does the opposite. Enough structure that the day runs smoothly, enough room that you can actually be in it. Time to catch your breath, hug the people you love, digest your nerves, and talk to God if you want.
These are the exact timelines I build from, first look or not. So you can see your whole day before it happens, and know you'll be present for it.
