About Jessica Irene Photography
Wedding, portrait, and brand photographer in Owatonna, Minnesota.
Meet Jessi
There is SO much more behind photography than using a nice camera and snapping a photo.
I’ve spent years trying to master my craft and I know that will only continue. I learn more through each and every person and photo session. I am super passionate about it and will more than likely make those remarks while at the shoot! My goal is to make you feel comfortable behind my lens so that we can grab those genuine, emotive moments that make for the best photos.
By the end of the session I hope you’re having fun and we are getting to know each other. I will give you all my effort to help you create those lasting memories that you cherish for years to come.
Meet the Team
Meet my super talented second shooters who help me add A LOT of value to my wedding photography packages.

2nd ShooterHi, I’m Dustin and have been fascinated with the world of photography since the age of 8. I'd describe my photography style as one that gives a unique perspective to everyday sights. When I’m not carrying a camera I enjoy traveling, I’m an avid mountain bike racer, and I’m a lover of the outdoors. I also like petting furry animals, drinking coffee and spending time with friends and family.

2nd Shooter
Hi, I’m Alan. I grew up in the north woods and am a lifelong student of nature. I discovered my passion for photography recently, with a deep dive into wildlife and nature photography. After a few years of observing wild animals’ behavior and emotion through the lens, Jessi inspired me to bring the same dedication and artistry to portrait photography. I also enjoy foraging, canoe camping, disc golf, and snuggling with my kitties.

Frequently asked questions
-
Please reach out to inquire so I can send you current pricing or so we can create the perfect package for you.
-
Please inquire through my website here.
-
I currently work with two extraordinary second shooters. My wedding packages can include them of course but it depends on availability.
-
Yes - all of my packages include both.
-
No. I only send over the finished product in the galleries. For many reasons. I go through each image, pick out the best ones, edit them professionally, convert the RAW files to a high resolution digital image and send it over via an online gallery where you can then either print or download it.
-
I try to get a preview posted to either my website OR Instagram within 5 days of the session date.
-
Of course. I understand that this is a major decision to book a photographer and I’d love to meet first. We can book a Google Meet OR meet at a coffee shop to chat.

Once your contract is signed and invoice for retainer paid - I will reach out to secure your engagement session. I will also reach out again 2-3 months before your wedding day with a questionnaire to be filled out so we can get your photography agenda complete and know exactly what is going on throughout the entire wedding day. I will also keep you updated on editing timelines and when to expect your galleries.
-
No. What you see is what you get. Each photographer has their own style of editing and we make sure that style is the same for every image we send out. Make sure you like the style of the photographer you are hiring so you will cherish the images once they are delivered. Photography is a subjective form of art.
-
YES! I have many trusted locations I’ve used and I love checking out new locations as well. Also - with regard to outfit choices there is a list of do’s and dont’s I can send you. They can make a big difference. Many of the things people don’t think of.
