JMF Photography was born out of a deep-rooted passion for visual storytelling. My journey began with a simple yet powerful idea: to capture the beauty and emotion of life’s fleeting moments in a way that transcends time. It all started with photographing my children’s sports events, where I discovered my love for the craft. Recognizing the potential to freeze not just a scene, but the essence of a memory, a feeling, or a story, I decided to go back to school to hone my skills. Now, I photograph something almost daily, continually refining my art.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our company has had the pleasure of working with James from JMF Photography on multiple occasions, and each experience has been exceptional. James consistently demonstrates a high level of professionalism and courtesy, ensuring that every event is captured beautifully, even under unique and challenging circumstances. James is always the first person I recommend when clients ask for a reliable and talented photographer. His ability to listen and understand our needs, combined with his skill in capturing the best shots in various settings, makes him an invaluable asset. I highly recommend James and JMF Photography for anyone seeking top-notch photography services.

He knows the ups and downs of a wedding, so he would make sure we were okay by reminding us to stay hydrated and to eat, he would be so great communicating the schedule for the day, and what to expect and what to do throughout the photoshoot. So grateful for his expertise and we totally recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

My friends would describe me as a sunny and bright person, and that’s how I photograph. I love capturing joy and making sure that the session feels that way too. I am the youngest sister of four girls and it have always been surrounded by creativity (and girls borrowing all my clothes). My favorite thing is bringing that creativity and fun to my sessions, and I can’t believe I get to bring my passion to my job each day.

My husband and I loved getting to work with Krista for our family and couples photos. She's such a joy to be around, so sweet and is super reliable. We felt like we could trust her with our memories and really enjoyed her easy direction for when we were in front of the camera.
