At Apartment Twenty, we value our documentary style photographers. If you’ve ever met Jess McDole, you already know, she just gets it. She gets what it means to truly see people, to understand that wedding photography isn’t about the trendiest shot or the most Pinterest-worthy detail. It’s about you. Your people, your day, your energy. And she brings that kind of intentional presence into every single wedding she photographs.
Film + Digital
Jess has a serious love for film, and once you see her work, it’s easy to understand why. There’s something really special about the way film captures light and texture, it just feels different. A little softer, a little more timeless. But she’s also a pro with digital, and she knows exactly when each photo will best tell your story.
It’s not about being trendy or overly curated. Jess mixes film and digital because together, they give her the freedom to capture the day honestly and artistically.
What It’s Like Working With Jess
Here’s what you need to know: Jess isn’t going to follow you around all day with a shot list or force awkward poses. She’s way more into documenting things as they naturally unfold. She’ll guide you when needed, but mostly she’s there to capture the real stuff like the laughs, the quiet moments, the little moments you might not even notice until you see your gallery.
Apartment Twenty
Being part of Apartment Twenty is a huge part of what makes Jess’s work so strong. The studio is full of creatives who value storytelling, honest imagery, and doing things a little differently. It’s not a factory of cookie-cutter weddings, it’s a collective of artists who care deeply about their couples and the stories they’re trusted to tell.
If you’re looking for a photographer who values your story as much as you do, someone who blends art and emotion, film and digital, calm and joy…you’ll want Jess on your team. Tap here for more!
