100/10 recommend her to be your photographer. My husband and I meet Jessica 5 years before we actually ended up setting a date and getting married. Somehow when we finally decided to put a date on the calendar we reached out and Jessica still remembered us like we just talked recently. Working with her has been so easy and smooth sailing. She is crazy organized and very responsive along with an open mind and helped with some accommodations to make our day super special! I will definitely be booking for family sessions and more with her!!

Bulger Creative Co.

Springfield, MO
  • Photojournalistic style

I'm down to earth, ready to invest, and ready to capture those important moments. My passions are the celebrations that are truly a representation of the couple I want to make art with you. I photograph every type of celebration no matter what size. I feel our style and method are suited for those who go against the grain and for those who desire authentic storytelling

Bulger Creative Co. provided much more than we expected for our wedding day. They were able to capture the raw moments that I will be able to look back at with my kids one day. They genuinely made my day stress free, they needed no direction and seamlessly adapted when plans changed. I was blown away when I received our wedding album. We received so many more photos than we expected and saw moments that we missed at our own wedding. They also created unique and creative styled photos that we requested, which turned out stunning. They became friends of ours by the end of our wedding day because of how personable they were. I would recommend them to anyone who wants beautiful and raw moments captured at their wedding.

  • Serves Springfield, MO

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

We can't recommend OLAS enough! Our photographer, Victoria, was amazing—super bubbly and made us feel comfortable right away during both our engagement and wedding shoots. She was so fun to work with while remaining highly professional and knowledgeable. The variety in our photos was incredible, but some of my favorites were the natural ones that perfectly captured our personalities. The rest of the OLAS team was also fantastic, helping us develop a detailed timeline and sharing portfolios of potential photographers to choose from. We received our photos quickly, and they were beautifully edited and of exceptional quality. Be sure to check out OLAS—and definitely ask for Victoria!

We cannot say enough good things about Heather and her team. I discovered Heather in a bride group and knew that I just had to have her as my photographer. I expected beautiful photos, but we got so much more. Heather and her team made our wedding era so wonderful. She treats you like a best friend she’s known her whole life. Not to mention her team’s passion for travel. Heather and Andrew traveled 6 hours each way for our engagement photo shoot, then again for our wedding. Their attention to detail and passion for real-life photos really makes the perfect wedding album. They captured every important moment. We are so thankful. We could not recommend the team enough!

After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jarrod did an amazing job on our wedding day! We were so very grateful to have him there with us. He was absolutely amazing and did a great job collaborating with our other vendors and coordinating logistics and timing of what we wanted to have done.

Weddings are my passion, it's not the decor, or the outfits, it's the pure LOVE between my couples. It is such an honor to be a part of my couples biggest day of their lives and the beginning of their marriage. Getting to use my talent to document their connection and all the amazing moments during the day is really a dream come true.

Awarded Best of Zola
Natalie is AMAZING! She shot our wedding back in 2021, and we still look back through our photos in absolute awe. They're timeless, beautiful, and a true reflection of our wedding day. If you want your wedding to be an 8-hour photo shoot, I don't know if Natalie is the right photographer for you. But if you want to *feel* your images and be able to actually relive your wedding day through photos, you would be remiss not to hire her. She made our wedding day (and engagement shoot) SO much fun, helped us pose when we got awkward, and worked with us when we decided to push back our date.
