Meet Jalisa

I believe in MEMORIES and MOMENTS, and all the tiny unforgettable things that happen in between. I believe in raw connection and real emotion. My photography is rooted in humanity and emotion.

I laugh loudly, smile a lot, and will always eat the dessert at your wedding.

Most of all, I HONESTLY & FEROCIOUSLY LOVE WHAT I DO.

SENTIMENTAL HEIRLOOMS

We just had our shoot yesterday and I am at a loss for words with the experience and quality of the photos we’ve received for our previews. My husband and I had a blast with Jalisa!! I personally feel awkward getting my photos taken and Jalisa made me feel so comfortable. We didn’t feel rushed and things felt natural the entire time.

We were surprised we received Polaroids to take with us after and got previews very quickly. So special! Jalisa has a creative eye and an awesome personality.

Jalisa is the best! She made my fiancé and I so comfortable and our engagement photos were amazing. I found her on Instagram and I loved the vibe of her photos, and man did they deliver. She is so kind, warm, and easy to work with... I recommend her to anyone looking for an engagement or wedding photographer in the DMV. Just the most wonderful experience!

"I recommend her to anyone

Jalisa is the absolute best! Had two amazing photo shoots with her and the results were breathtaking. I planned a surprise proposal/photoshoot for my girlfriend, and she was wonderful to collaborate with and made the experience smooth and fun. I was pleasantly surprised at the different cameras (polaroids and film!) used during the shoot. The only problem is that I don’t have enough wall space to frame each and every photo! They’re all so beautiful! Highly recommend Jalisa and will definitely be reaching out again in the future so she can capture more milestones in my life. Thank you Jalisa!

to frame each and every photo!"
