Simple. Timeless. Authentic.
Three words that shape the way we approach school photography. Simple means creating a picture day that feels organized and easy for schools, families, and students. Timeless means photographs that feel just as beautiful years from now as they do today. And authentic means giving children the space to simply be themselves in front of our cameras.
While our professional backgrounds are different, the values we bring to our work are very much the same. Erika spent years in education before pursuing photography, while Jessika came to photography after nearly two decades in hospitality and the beauty industry before building her career in the wedding industry. Together, those experiences have given us a shared appreciation for preparation, service, patience, and working well with people of all ages.
What began as two individual careers has grown into something we’re incredibly proud to build together. As family, we know one another’s strengths, we genuinely enjoy creating side by side, and we share the same standards for the work we put into the world.
That partnership is at the heart of what we do, and we look forward to bringing it to the schools and families we have the privilege of serving.
What Matters to Us
1. Student Safety & Privacy
The responsibility of working with children is one we take seriously. Student privacy and the responsible handling of their images are considered throughout our entire process.
2. A Positive Experience
Every child is different. We approach students with patience, encouragement, and respect, without expecting every personality to respond to the camera in the same way.
3. Professionalism
rom communication and preparation to picture day and final delivery, schools can expect us to be organized, responsive, and prepared.
4.Quality Over Quantity
We intentionally work with a select number of schools so we can remain personally involved and maintain the standard of service we expect from ourselves.
The Team
meet erika
Erika is a photographer, former educator, wife to her high school sweetheart, and mom of two.
Her love for photography began early. Her grandfather was a photographer, and she grew up surrounded by cameras and the darkroom, watching photographs come to life long before she ever picked up a camera professionally herself.
With a degree in education and years of teaching experience, Erika brings an understanding of children to picture day that goes far beyond the camera. She knows that no two children are alike. Some arrive ready to smile before they even reach the backdrop, while others need a little more time, patience, or encouragement to feel comfortable.
Her ability to meet children where they are, paired with her experience as a photographer, makes school photography a natural intersection of two things she has loved for years: working with children and creating beautiful photographs.
Her faith and family are at the center of her life and have shaped the way she approaches her work and the people she serves.
Outside of picture day, you’ll usually find Erika spending time with her family, drinking coffee, or happily choosing pizza for dinner.
The Team
meet jessika
Jessika is a photographer, wife, and rescue dog mom.
Before building her career in photography, Jessika spent nearly two decades in the hospitality and beauty industries. Both taught her how much the experience surrounding a service matters, from anticipating what someone needs to paying attention to the smallest details.
She later carried that philosophy into the wedding industry, photographing couples throughout Pennsylvania and across the U.S. Years of working in fast-moving environments have made her calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and someone who would much rather have a plan before one is needed.
That combination of photography and hospitality has shaped the way Jessika approaches picture day. She believes beautiful photographs and a well-run experience should go hand in hand.
Her faith is an important part of who she is and influences the way she approaches her work, the people she serves, and the standards she follows.
When she isn’t behind a camera, Jessika is usually with her husband and two dogs, hiking, baking sourdough, or finding a new home project to tackle.
let's make picture day something to look forward to
