Juliana Noelle Jumper
My interest in wedding and lifestyle photography began with my personal experience as a bride, and the difficulty in feeling like I just didn't quite fit.
I am here for the rest of us: the romantic realists, the introverted, the anti-brides, and everyone in between. While I love the traditions and formalities surrounding one’s wedding day, I strive to push beyond these constraints to capture your unique story.
Coming from a background in fine art and documentary photography, I have a nontraditional approach to my subjects. Captivated by sentimentality, I search for those seemingly insignificant moments, small gestures, and all the little details that make you 'you.' I document the joy in your most important moments and the poetry in between, ultimately creating a collection of heirloom imagery that is artistic, honest, and intimate.
About Me
I started ‘Juliana Noelle Jumper photography’ in the fall of 2017. SINCE THEN, I’ve shot over 150 weddings all across the US, and in several international locations. I live in kANSAs CITY, MO with my husband, our six cats, and two Great Danes. In addition to being a photographer, I am a painter, avid traveler, and lover of all things fashion & interior DESIGN. As an enneagram type 3w4 I have major ambition and am a bit of a workaholic at times, but as an introvert I like to slow down. When not out shooting, you can frequently find me reading with a cup of tea in hand, or laying down for a long afternoon nap.
