I'm here to make your entire experience feel easy, meaningful, and actually you.
From the moment you reach out to the day you’re holding your photos in your hands, my goal is simple: for you to feel taken care of, present, and fully in it. No stress, no awkward posing, just real moments, beautifully captured.
After photographing 500+ weddings across the country, plus hundreds of senior and family sessions, I bring a calm, experienced presence so you can soak in every second, knowing nothing important is being missed. The big moments, the in-between ones, and everything you didn’t even realize you’d want to remember.
This isn’t just about photos, it’s about preserving a season of your life you’ll never get back, in a way that still feels just as real years from now.
My path to photography didn’t start with some big childhood dream, it started with a little film camera, Costco prints, and a scrapbooking class when I was 13. I fell in love with capturing moments and holding onto them.
I photographed my first wedding on film in 2003, and not long after, took the leap to pursue photography full-time, earning my degree in fine art photography. In 2008, Mollie Jane Photography was born, and after 500+ weddings across the country, from Washington State to Washington DC, California to Florida and a whole bunch of places in between (Utah, Arizona, Nevada, Texas, Idaho, Montana, South Dakota, Minnesota...whoosh). I’m still just as drawn to the real, in-between moments as I was back then.
I'm a wife to my Carlos, and a mom to 2 teenagers and an (almost) pre-teen (Leo, Bella, and Andre). And a dog-mom to a Shih Tzu named Goldie. We are living our Florida dream in St. Augustine!
Always watching college football in the fall. Especially my Cougars!
Forever on the hunt for the perfect chicken taco and green salsa.
Carlos, Leo, Bella and Andre, my whole heart. My partners in everything! The reason WHY.
It's the ONLY way!
Vanilla, Coconut, & Cream. YUM!
Early mornings, scriptures & workout!
Keeps my mind sane and my body strong.
Because of HIM,
I have everything!
I never don't want to be at Disney. I'm either there or planning/scheming a way to get there. My happy place.
Where my soul is at peace. Put my toes in hot sand and I am a happy girl. Warm weather, sunny days and palm trees.
An absolute vitamin D addict!
I lived in Southern California during the pandemic. For a long time weddings were cancelled or postponed. To photograph families, I stood in front yards and sidewalks with my zoom lenses on doing, what we called, "Front Porch Sessions".
I vividly remember the first wedding after lockdowns and restrictions were temporarily eased, I was waiting for the grand entrance and the music started. Friends, I started to cry. I love weddings so much and I missed them with all of my heart.
I remember the first family and senior that I didn't have to "social distance" from. I just wanted to hug them all!!!
That was a HARD season, but never again, for a second, do I take that I get to do this, as a full -time job, for granted. It is such a blessing. I put every part of my heart into your wedding (and portrait sessions), before, during and after. It is a privilege to be the one to be with you on your special day and capturing this fleeting time in your life.
I want you to, not only, love your images, but feel all of those feelings every time you look at them. All of my 20 years as a photographer, I wrap up in an experience. You will feel calm, prepared, beautiful and confident when it comes to your Jacksonville and St. Augustine wedding, family or senior photography.
I cannot wait to serve you!
