I believe that photography is both an art and an experience.”

MY STORY

I’m Jessica Livingston and I live in San Diego, California. I travel everywhere, but typically am known for my beach-based wedding photography, so often find myself in places close to the sea. 

A couple stands close together, looking into each other's eyes, smiling at a scenic mountain backdrop. Two children are playing in the grass behind them.

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

I consider myself a Natural Photographer - a cautious and honest balance of capturing weddings as they were in a beautiful way. I am most drawn to analog film, and most of my work is deeply rooted in my film photography.

You can find me in the sunshine, usually at the beach. I love spending time with my kids, going to concerts/festivals, taking long walks with friends, and traveling with my family. 

My biggest goal I have in photography is to be aligned with both my ideal self and my ideal client, so that those clients find me and my work, and identify themselves (and their weddings) in my photos.

Four black and white photo strips featuring a woman with long hair, and a man with curly hair, with two children with light hair. In the first strip, they are smiling and close together. In the second, the woman and man look surprised or amused. In the third, they are about to kiss, and in the fourth, they are laughing and smiling together.
