Destination Wedding Photographer

Romantic New Jersey Wedding at Rode’s Barn

March 1, 2018

I couldn’t be more excited to share a sneak peek of this gorgeous and romantic New Jersey wedding at Rode’s Barn! Tyler + Katie are two of the most sweetest and selfless people I have come across in my life. I met Katie during my senior year in college at East Carolina. She’s actually one of my ESA sorority sisters!!! Yes, I was in a service sorority my senior year and I met tons of amazing girls! A few of them even attended this wedding! YAY!

When Katie contacted me about being her wedding photographer, I was ECSTATIC!! I had just started my business and loved the idea of having them as one of my couples! But it was when I met Tyler during our engagement session two years ago, I just knew they were the perfect match for each other! I mean have you seen those photos?! If not, go check them out here!

Their wedding day was highly anticipated and we weren’t letting the unfortuante gloomy forecast stand in our way of documenting awesome images!! Katie put SO much effort into her vision! And boy, did it exceed my expectations! She did an amazing job!! It was perfectly romantic and definitely had that boho chic feel. I was so in love! <3

We had a few rainy moments during portraits, but it was a miracle when the rain completely stopped just in time for bride + groom portraits! It was definitely an act of God. We even got the chance to do non-rainy bridal party portraits afterwards!! Hallelujah! To say I’m obsessed with this wedding is understatement and I was so honored to have captured this memorable day for them and their loved ones!!

Tyler + Katie: You both are a blessing. Thank you yet again for being so understanding and willing to tough it out in the rain and mud. Like I always say, you leave on your wedding day with a smile on your face, love in heart and your wedding photos to always look back on! I love you both so much. Enjoy these memories!

Behind the Lens

MEET Jessie

Photographer, creative, wifey, boy mama - inspired by music, good light, and you.

Hi! I’m Jessie Walker Drudy, and I’m so glad you’re here!

I specialize in weddings, couples, families, maternity and now offering boudoir. I am currently based in Virginia Beach, VA but I Serve All of Virginia and willing to travel! 

When I’m not photographing weddings, you’ll usually find me a local coffee shop with a mom friend aka running after our wild kiddos or watching some sort of sporting event with my husband! Our two dogs are considered a part of our family and I truly enjoy when my clients bring their own dogs (or cats because we don't discriminate) to their sessions or incorporate them in details at weddings!

I've been doing this for more than a decade and I'm still obsessed with the joy I witness on my clients’ biggest days. 

My clients don't leave with a stack of posed portraits. They leave with little slices of real life — the looks, the laughs, the moments nobody else noticed because they were too busy celebrating or fully taking it all in.

That’s the mission, and it starts well before your session or wedding day. I’m not here to be a stranger behind a lens, I’m here to help capture the story you’ll be telling for years to come!
