Jessica Simkin Photography

Jessica Simkin calls herself a milestone photographer, a fitting label for a Casper-based business that groups family, maternity, and newborn work together under one gallery rather than splitting babies off as a separate specialty. Her own description of her style, warm and emotive with soft golden light and a preference for outdoor settings like fields and horses when weather allows, comes through even in her indoor newborn work, where close, intimate crops of tiny hands and feet replace the wide landscapes. With eight years behind the camera, she’s built a portfolio that swings comfortably between full wedding days and quieter, in-home newborn sessions, and reviews mention her staying relaxed even when a session goes sideways, including one family whose five dogs joined the shoot uninvited. That flexibility matters for a newborn session, where a fussy baby or a last-minute schedule change is closer to the norm than the exception. She describes her approach as balancing posed and candid moments, so a Casper family can expect both a few deliberately composed portraits and the kind of unplanned, in-between moments that tend to mean more years later. Standard newborn and family galleries are typically delivered within one to three weeks. For parents who’d rather book a photographer already comfortable with kids, chaos, and changing plans than someone who treats newborn sessions as a rigid formula, Jessica Simkin’s milestone-focused approach is a solid match.
