The Photographer

Hi there,

My name is Jessica Monte and I am a newborn, baby, child and family photographer.   Throughout my life, I have treasured the work I have been blessed to do with babies, children and their parents.  As a photographer, I feel blessed to be able to capture a family’s beautiful moments, whether it be the birth of a child, the celebration of a birthday or the marking of a season.  It is a great honor to be able to do this kind of work. 

I am available to photograph your new baby, child, your growing belly (moms and dads to be), and your family both in the studio and on location.  Our studio is newborn, kid and family friendly with lots of fun props ranging from baskets, blankets, and chairs to silly and adorable hats.   I encourage my clients to bring their fun side to their sessions.  It is my belief that the best photos happen when everyone is having a good time; it is my goal as your photographer to take the best photo of you that you’ve ever had taken.

Prior to your session, I will talk with you about what you like to do as a family or what your baby or child likes to do.  For newborns, I will talk with parents at great length about how to prepare for a session so that we capture those gorgeous sleeping baby photos.  

My session availability includes weekday afternoons, as well as weekend mornings and afternoons.  I spend about one to two hours with my clients for each session.  I will talk with you about photo layout and presentation in your home after your session during a separate appointment.  

If you would like to book a session with me or  simply have a question, e-mail me at jessicamonte@jessicamonte.com or call 703-863-3601.  

 

Thank you for visiting me.  I look forward to photographing you!

A big thank you to Annabelle Monte for taking this very flattering photo of me, :-)

 

One more thing.  I keep a personal photography blog called Days of You and Me .  I blog about this, that, and the other thing.  You’ll mostly see my personal photographs and read my silly stories about my two children, my husband, and my fluffy cat Toby.
