Jess is a destination wedding and lifestyle photographer based in the midwest of the United States. Mainly using analog film formats, she documents with a focus on color and ‘feeling’.

So much happens at a wedding — laughter, tears, hugs, quiet moments, loud dance floors — and she aims to approach preserving those memories in a documentary way, showcasing the wedding story as it happened, with a flair of creative editorial perspective.

Jess believes that weddings shouldn’t be about the photography, but the photography to be about the weddings.

Jess McDole Weddings welcomes all races, cultures, gender identities, and sexual orientations with open arms.

Nice to meet you.
