Jessica Gates

Hello everyone!

I'm a 23 year old self taught photographer (on the left in my profile picture!) from Norwich, CT. I started my photography journey when my niece was born three years ago, and have been in love ever since. I knew I wanted to venture into portrait photography and photographed anyone who was willing to let me take their picture. Over the years, I've done weddings, engagements, maternity, newborns, etc...but I've always found my way back to the creative aspect of fashion photography and more one on one portraits. I've always used natural light as my light source but lately I've been taking on studio and the varies uses of flash. It's a whole new experience for me but it's been an exciting change to me considering I've been in a creative rut! Currently I have a one light setup, and the use of reflectors for fill.

I'm always welcome to any feedback on my work, and am very excited to be part of the fstoppers community!
