Welcome. Bienvenue.

Hi, my name is Jessica Peterson & I was born and raised in Kansas City and have studied, lived, and traveled all over this crazy world. I have been shooting weddings & portraits for over 5 years professionally in the Kansas City area. I accept 30 weddings per year and there is no travel fee for those living in either KC or AZ.

I studied Fashion Photography in NYC *some* years back at FIT and do my best to keep fresh with fashion trends which I hope reads as the golden threads of beauty throughout my imagery. I am a wife, a friend, an aunt, an animal lover, a vegetarian, an adreanaline junkie and a romantic. I love reading, shopping, eating, dancing, indie rock, trip hop, jeff de bruges chocolates, lip gloss, traveling & meeting new people from different spaces than my own.

I hope in this blog you can find information, inspiration, a laugh, a cry, a wedding photographer ;) & a friend. Please feel free to leave comments as often as you like, its comparable to free icecream on a late summer afternoon to receive comments from my readers!! yummmm, amarena gelato***yes, please!


Thank you for taking the time to learn a little more about me & my work, if you have any questions about my services please feel free to call me anytime; p913.232.3729.

would you please remind me , oh,
cos without you things go hazy. “

I am often asking myself, well questions, of myself, strangers, best...

WUW (word UP wednesdays)

Happy Wednesday friends! Today’s lesson, alike  all my other WUW lessons, is of utmost importance when traveling to a French speaking country.

March already??!

This morning my glands attacked me! My throat hurts, my nose is runny and I feel completely icky. I am at home today, listening to the jet fighter spin cycle of my washing machine, the chirping of pigeons & crows and lot of Rachael. All I need now is a dry sauna,...
