My family had maternity and newborn photos done with Jess. The pictures turned out even better than I could have imagined! Jess was a joy to work with, kind and professional. She made it easy to be comfortable and gave my family pointers on how to position ourselves/pose. She really has an artistic eye, she captured our little family so beautifully during both sessions (one outdoors and one in our home). We will cherish these photos for a lifetime to come. I can't recommend her enough!! Thank you so much Jess! read more

I was browsing for maternity photography and Jess Young came up. I fell in love with her works right away. It was like "love at first sight". She is the most kind, sweet, & super comfortable to work with. Although I love posing pics to my IG, it's nothing compare when you are about to be a mom having your first ever maternity photography. But she made it easy for us both, hence stunning photos came up! Then Mother's day came, we decided to have it done with Jess again. The pictures were beautiful!! She is also like a pro dealing with a toddler, lol Can't stop browsing those beautiful photos. You are amazing Jess. Thank you for capturing those beautiful moments. You made things easy for us. Until our next session. xoxo read more

am very glad I came across Jess during my photographer search for my maternity shoot. She was communicative and very responsive throughout. It was easy to agree on a date & place and also process of reserving the date was straight forward. The day of the shoot was the first time I met her. She's a genuinely nice person. She helped me calm down and relax as I was very nervous especially in the beginning of the shoot. I eventually got to feel more relaxed and I enjoyed the shoot very well. She guided the poses for my husband and I very well and took great shots. The pictures came out AMAZING!! I am so in love with them. I can't even pick the ones to frame as they are all great.

I connected with Jess through a FB promotion. I was hesitant at first, since it was through social media, I wasn't sure if she was the real deal because of online scams, but rest assured she was worth it. I did a rush photoshoot in a week and let me tell you, she was the best photographer I've ever had. It's easy to reach her by phone or email. Her payment system was a breeze and she maps out what to wear and what to expect before hand through email. For the day of the photoshoot she directs you and family with poses with ease. I'm shy in front of the camera and intimidated by how to pose but Jess talks you into poses with such professionalism that your not intimidated. I asked her for a couple of photos last min to show case at my baby shower she sent me my gallery and I LOVED ALL the pictures!! Rarely that happens, but I have to say Jess has a gift to take pictures of expecting mothers. Also, a little touch that I loved was the song playing in the background when you view your gallery. I can't wait to see the booklet and to work with her again in the future. read more

I have worked with Jess a few times already and I love her and her work! The first time we connected was in 2018 when I was looking for a maternity photographer in the Long Beach/Seal Beach areas. She's amazing to work with! I don't like taking pictures and so I always feel uncomfortable with photoshoots, but Jess made me feel very comfortable and even made it fun! She has a very geniune personality that comes across right away and thus it's easy to feel good and be yourself during a photoshoot. I loved her work so much that I asked her to capture our Holiday family photo in 2019. She didn't disappoint! She's great about selecting beautiful locations and also works with suggested locations. We also did a mother/son photoshoot when my son turned 1 year and those photos also came out wonderful! She captured those special moments of me holding my little guy, dancing away and smiling through her lens and now I have these photos to cherish for the rest of my life! read more
