This week we welcome the lovely Jessica (great name, sister!), a photographer from Idaho. Her photos are in the dreamy, sweet style that I love, and I’ll bet you do too!

Where do you live?

I live in a tiny little town called Kuna, Idaho – just outside of Boise.

Where do you do your work?

I take my camera everywhere I go in case inspiration strikes – and I edit photos and make huge messes in my home studio.

What’s your favourite place in the world, and why?

ooohhh … good question. Home is where the heart is, you know … But I traveled to Italy when I was in high school and I dream of going back someday.

Tell us a little bit more about yourself! Your ‘day job’ or business, family, hobbies…

I have a husband, 3 kids (2 boys and a girl), a house, a day job, and my photography business. I love to do all sorts of crafty things (crochet, scrapbook, sewing) but I rarely have time for those anymore.

What did you want to be ‘when you grew up’?

The first thing I remember wanting to be was a photographer.

How did you first get into your craft/art?

My parents bought me a little pink Kodak camera when I was 7 or 8 years old. I took thousands of awful pictures, and loved every minute of it. Later I took a photography class in high school and fell deeper into love.

What do you like the most/least about selling your wares online?

The Etsy community is wonderful and supportive and a lot of fun. I wish I didn’t have to spend so much time on the computer, however. Sometimes it is hard to know what the right balance of computer-time vs. real-life time is …

I love…

The smell of rain, chocolate, the sound of my kids giggling, long drives with my husband, yard sales, photography.

What’s your favourite word?
