Hi. I’m Jesi.
I’m the photographer you’ve been looking for.
The top thing I hear from my clients after they receive their brand photos is, “Wow! you made me look way cooler than I really am!” The truth is, I just see the kickass, fierce, bold person inside of you.
My superpower is listening to what you want your brand message to be, and coming up with a show-stopping, creative visual depiction of that message.
Whether you already have a clear idea of that message, or if you need my guidance, I’m here to take your brand’s photography to the next level. The cool level.
Behind the Lens
When I’m not shooting, I’m living my best life in Fort Myers with my boyfriend, Peter, and our dog, Miles. When I can tear myself away from them, I enjoy thrift shopping, exploring new cities, and riding my bike.
My biggest passion beyond work is volunteerism. There are so many fantastic non-profit organizations in my community, and I try to get involved as much as possible! This year I started serving on the Fort Myers Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board. Getting involved with the Neighborhood Accountability Board and Love Your Rebellion helps me stay connected with my community. You can also catch me working the polls on pretty much any election day!
Award Winning Photographer
There’s something truly humbling about winning awards – but it’s also a total ego boost!
In 2022, I was honored to be recognized as a 40 Under 40 honoree by Gulfshore Business, won a Gold ADDY at the American Advertising Awards, and was voted one of the best photographers in Lee County by Gulfshore Life readers.

Canvas Rebel Interview – What It Takes To Be Successful
The key to success is being tenacious about problem solving. Murphy’s Law “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong” absolutely applies to business. Equipment will fail. People will flake on you. Competition will sneak up on you. Sales will drop. Disasters will happen. But survivors are the business owners who look at a problem and say “Ok, let’s find a solution” rather than crumbling under the pressure. There is almost always a solution to every problem. It may not be easy, or cheap, but there is a solution!
Sometimes I write.
