Jessica has spent over two decades crafting a body of work that transcends the boundaries of traditional social documentary. Her photography is not just a mere reflection of "real people living their real lives," but an immersive journey through the ever-evolving tapestry of our global society.
With an unwavering focus on human interactions and the depths of emotion, Jessica's unique brand of photography breathes life into the notion of storytelling. For her, the camera becomes a conduit for capturing the essence of the human experience in its purest form.
Ever the purist, she defies the allure of modern digital techniques, instead wielding her trusty Olympus OM-1 camera and faithfully preserving moments on 35mm film. This deliberate choice is a testament to her belief that the film camera remains unrivalled in its ability to uncover the raw truth at the heart of our existence. Whether traversing continents or delving into intimate encounters, her camera is a constant companion, a witness to the remarkable narratives that unfold.
