About jess combs & the Company
Please don’t be a stranger in my place.
Our photographing and filming style can be described as natural, candid, and a little cinematic romance. We live for the fun moments of a wedding day and the many emotions that come along with it. When it comes down to us actually documenting your day we have unique approach and synchronicity we've developed over the years of working together.
Separately we like to say we're pretty great, but together we make magic. I, Jess am primarily the lead photographer, and Corey the lead videographer but there have been many weddings where we have done one or the other only as individuals or we do both photo and video at the same time. We just get each other and work seamlessly together. It is our secret super power to communicate without actually talking.
Before you dive in to far you must know we are more than just some hired team who shows up, snaps, and leaves. We are a team who takes pride in their work and find that each moment no matter if it is big or small it's an important one. We believe true honest human connection with open communication is the way to building a lasting relationship, especially when we will be sharing one of your most memorable days together.
We strive to create lasting moments with emotion and movement.
Trust us, we are just as passionate about your memories as you!
The lowdown on who we are

Get to know me quiz style!
I know it's hard to understand what to expect when working with a photographer or videographer before you even get the chance to meet them, but what I can tell you as an enneagram two, I am all about helping. No really I am here to serve you, acts of service is my number one love language! I am here to be a confidant on your wedding day and help you be more present.
When I am not recovering from people pleasing, I am a wife first to Corey, a cat mom second, and an avid outdoor enthusiast third. I enjoy the simple pleasures of gardening which has lead to my current passion following the journey to minimalism and tiny house life. My personal style is best described as laid back luxury! Think a little boujee with leggings and a little sparkle. I love all things retro and mid century modern with a touch of boho. A colorful desert house is actual goals.

Nerdy Stats
A wife, mother and full time photographer who's journey started with a 35mm film camera from the 70's. From there that passion grew and she valued photos even more after losing her childhood photo albums in Hurricane Katrina. She is inspired by the sound of the ocean, and the beauty of the land she grew up on in the countryside of peaceful Gulfport, Mississippi. She always tries to fill her images with that movement and mood.

I've got the cutest boys ever! My husband & I have been together 12 years, & celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary in January. A few guilty pleasures are: Americanos, Moscow Mules, Avocado Toast, Mediterranean food, True Crime podcasts (Crime Junkie & The Murder Squad are faves!!!) Real talk, I also enjoy dropping f'bombs, but I always “read the room” before I let one slip.
