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!
