Meet Jess Collins
Photographer, Educator and Traveller
Kitchener based wedding photographer specializing in destination and intimate weddings.
A travel enthusiast living my best Disney life with my husband and two boys. Can frequently be found walking the runaway to board my next flight, sipping my Starbucks while browsing the lifestyle section at Chapters or lounging poolside under a palm with a good read.
