Recent work
Sharing recent wedding work from Central Ohio, Columbus, Westerville by Jessica Love Photography. Including proposals, engagements and weddings at Lindey’s German Village, Jorgensen Farms in Westerville Ohio, and the Ellis in Italian Village. Look through these images for a photographer who will capture you authentically and beautifully!
is the easiest way to get images in front of you just calling a blog post “recent work”? yes, yes it is. And, I love for you to see my work, love it, and want to work together! Enjoy!
want to see more! I’ll make it easy, and put a contact me link RIGHT HERE :) Let’s chat!
choosing gallery photos with purpose
behind the scenes look into using galleries to deliver photos that give the background and emotion of a photoshoot of family photos and of wedding days
I am not skimpy with how I fill your gallery - wedding or family session. Many photographers use a gallery to deliver only the best, technically and aesthetically. That sounds pretty self explanatory, right? Agreed. I do that too….but also make sure to give images that may not be THE one you’re printing and putting on your wall, but will be the one you come back to when you feel nostalgic. Or when you want to talk to your kid about how the photo session was to make memories, too!
Take this series, for example. I had the kids hide behind the trees, because I will never make photos about GETTING THE PHOTO. We are always happier when we’re playing! Then they took turns sticking out body parts: are these photos going to make a gallery wall? Unlikely…but for the parents, and the kids, this is hopefully a memory for them, about this shoot. It also served as a transition to get the sister shot that WILL make the gallery wall…
When it comes to weddings, SO MANY photos won’t make the gallery wall, or the album that sits on your coffee table…but that doesn’t mean they’re not worthy of existing. And so SO many moments serve as those transition / in between moments that will be the emotion of your wedding day.
summertime
favorite images from wedding photography in Columbus ohio by Jessica love photography.
Back in this (fun, hard) endless cycle of: Shoot all the things, edit, edit, edit. Oh wait, let me share what I’m doing because I need work for next year!AHHHH! Self employment is a lot! As we get used to here, if you stay and scroll long enough (stay! Scroll!) here are some of my favorites from all the good I’m getting to see this year. It’s been such a good year to step into the “trend” of couples and families wanting as much of a natural, candid look and feel for their photos.
film is not (ever) dead
Sharing recent film scans from The Darkroom Lab, shot on Kodak portraits 400 35mm film by Jessica love photography in and around near me Columbus Ohio. Venues include Revery, Jorgensen Farms, North 4th Corridor Brick and Mortar. Film is exciting to shoot because it takes talent and observation skills to properly expose for light and conditions.
I love knowing when people find me because they’re diving down an internet rabbit hole of film photography (do we hashtag #film for that?). I’ll always try to incorporate film into my wedding and family shooting - and hopefully some of these recent film scans show you why!
the grain on that one!
faves from this weekend!
teasers from a wedding at Peak at Edison near me in Gahanna Ohio by wedding photographer Jessica Love.
This is it, summer routine of sharing a quick share with the blog, then slowly trickling it onto IG. Enjoy a few from a new-to-me-venue : The Peak at Edison in Gahanna, Ohio. I didn’t know what to expect, but loved the modern lights + open sky on the balcony level. I hope to be back again SOOOOON!
I cannot even tell you how incredibly happy I am to see color again. Ya know flowers are my favorite, and I truly cannot get enough of this summer so far!
summer faves
it’s clearly not summer here, but as soon as wedding season is in full swing, it’s easy to forget SUMMER proper is not until June 20! But, what we have time to share now are some recent favorites from all the beautiful weddings I’ve been a part of! I hope their happiness and comfort shines through!
