About
Jessica Lapp is a wedding and portrait photographer located in Charlottesville Virginia. Through a mix of film and digital photography, wedding days are captured as a story. Her approach is simple, yet intentional: classically elegant, yet relaxed. Elevated in style, yet never stiff. Luxurious, emotional imagery starts with relationships, and that is the foundation of her business. Days off consist of lots of time outside on their farm in the gorgeous countryside of Central Virginia with her husband Steve and her 2 year old daughter Evelyn.

If you have the opportunity to book Jess for your photos, it would be an absolute mistake not to! We hired Jess for our wedding in October 2023 and she was an absolute dream to work with. Her artistry is second to none and it was exactly what we were looking for. She managed to get amazing photos in an efficient amount of time, while also being so sooo enjoyable to have around during our special day! It didn't feel like we were taking photos all day because she knew exactly how to make the time worthwhile.
Jess has such a special personality as well. While our wedding was the first day we ever met Jess in person, it felt like we were old friends and she made my husband and me feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She went incredibly far above and beyond what we had hoped and expected and there were so many little special touches she brought to our day and our gallery. Looking through her photos brought back so many wonderful memories from our special day!

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Jessica and her work. She made my husband and I feel totally relaxed on our wedding day and kept us to the schedule of the day without us feeling stressed or rushed. She captured every detail and every moment and we are so grateful for all of the photos she took. Not only is she an incredible photographer, but also an amazing person which made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She was even attentive to our large families (30+ people) and crazy dog. We are planning to have her shoot our family photos for our holiday card next year. Thank you Jessica, for the pictures and memories we will be able to cherish forever, I still cannot pick a favorite.
